Top 5 Best Android Chinese Smartphones: February 2016

5. Huawei Mate S:

Huawei has introduced Mate S during IFA in Berlin back in September. This handset has been available for a while now, and even though it’s no longer the latest and greatest Huawei has to offer, it still deserves a place on this list. Huawei Mate S isn’t exactly cheap, but it offers really sleek design, solid set of specs, and it comes in a Force Touch variant as well, for those of you who are into that sort of thing.

4. Xiaomi Mi 4C:

The Xiaomi Mi 4C is a rather interesting phone. This device comes in both 2 and 3GB RAM flavors, and it is fueled by the Snapdragon 808 64-bit hexa-core processor, which is still quite powerful. The Mi 4C, despite all that, is not all that expensive, it costs around $220 dollars no matter where you live. The device is also well-built, and ships with a 5-inch 1080p (1920 x 1080) display.

3. Asus ZenFone 2 (ZE551ML):

The Asus ZenFone 2 was announced back in January 2015, and it’s still more than a compelling handset, especially if you consider its price point. The 4GB variant of this phone is definitely something we can still stand behind and recommend, and you also get Intel’s Atom Z3580 SoC here, and a rather solid 13-megapixel camera. The 5.5-inch fullHD (1920 x 1080) display is also available, and the phone offers a rather sleek looking body as well.

2. Meizu MX5:

The Meizu MX5 was introduced by the company back in July, and even though it’s not exactly Meizu’s flagship any longer, this device is well worth it. The phone is fueled by the Helio X10 64-bit octa-core processor, while it sports 3GB of RAM and it comes in a couple of internal storage flavors. The 20.7-megapixel shooter on the back of this phone is quite capable, and below it, you’ll find a Laser Autofocus as well. The MX5 is actually quite affordable considering what it has to offer.

1. Xiaomi Redmi Note 3:

Xiaomi has introduced the Redmi Note 3 back in November last year. This handset is, much like the Mi 4C, quite affordable, and it has plenty to offer you. The phone is made out of metal, and it ships with a 5.5-inch fullHD (1920 x 1080) IPS LCD display, along with 2 or 3GB of RAM. MediaTek’s Helio X10 64-bit octa-core processor fuels this phone, and a 13-megapixel shooter is placed on the back of the phone.
