[Image: 23t4cg7.jpg]

Hi Guys and girl's,This time we have a real gem of a smartphone for review the Vernee Apollo from [Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register]Android 6.0 5.5 inch 2K Screen packed with the Helio X25 2.5GHz Deca Core 4GB RAM 64GB ROM 8.0MP + 21.0MP Cameras and a Fingerprint Scanner.Iv been using the Vernee for just over a week now and not had one signal issue with it.

The Vernee Apollo arrived Via snail mail this time very well packed with lots of protective bubble wrap.

Looks and feel

The phone itself has a all metal body & feels like its an expensive phone having a really nice feel to it, On the edges of the phone you will find nice curved corners, as well as the usual buttons and inputs..Comes pre installed with Android 6.0 marshmellow & with the promise of Android 7 soon.

On the bottom is the, Type C power connector and the speaker

On the left of the phone is the 2 sim card trays (One of witch is also a sd card slot)

[Image: 2wfih3k.jpg]

On the right hand side is the Volume rocker and the power button

[Image: 2mfo7s.jpg]

On the back in the 21MP camera ,LED and the finger print scanner

On the top is the 3,5mm Head phone port

One of the first things you will notice when unpacking the vernee is the build quality its 2nd to none it really does stand out as a top end phone.With is all metal body, 2.5D arc glass on the front (gorilla glass 3)Not forgetting the VR Headset it come's packed with, Ok its not the best VR head set but it will give you the idea & let you get started in the new world of VR.

A quick look at the Vernee UI



One of the main things that attracted me to this phone was the 21MP camera and can say its the best camera iv used on a phone to date.It has the PDAF function f/2.2 aperture 6 piece sony lens.And wow im impressed with this the images are so crisp and clear its hard to beleave there from a smart phone.

Hardware
CPU: Helio X25
Cores: 2.5GHz,Deca Core
GPU: Mali T880
RAM: 4GB RAM
ROM: 64GB
External Memory: TF card up to 128GB

The vernee Apollo Boots up in 30 secands taking you to the clean looking home screen and from the photo below you can see it dont come with loads of chinese crap installed.The charging time on the Vernee is fast About 3 hours from 0 to 100% charge.Its also nice to have the type c charging point as theres no putting the charger in the wrong way,It also supports OTG connection.

Home screen

[Image: fdr4b4.png]

App Draw

[Image: 2hq84lv.png]

The screen itself is bright and so vivid with the 2k screen, With a Screen resolution of 2560x1440 and amazing viewing angles for enjoying movies and playing games.The phone in this review also came with a screen protective film (Not a glass one just a cheap one by the looks of it)

The Vernee has the navigation bar buttons that sit below the screen: one takes you to the home screen, one takes you back a step, and one brings up a list of open apps,You can also change to latout the the navi buttons in the settings.

Another thing i liked about this phone was the finger print scanner, Iv had a finger print scanner on my last 2 phones and i do love it But with this vernee Apollo iv got the finger scanner is not that good, Only working at most at 50% of the time also tried setting it to every finger on my hands to get the same outcome (Sorry please try in 30 secands)Arhhhh Ok you dont have to wait 30 secands to use your phone you can still type you pin to get access.Im keeping my fingers crossed this will get fixed in an OTA update.


Network
Wireless Connectivity: 3G,4G,A-GPS,Bluetooth 4.0,GPS,GSM,WiFi
WIFI: 802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless internet
Network type: FDD-LTE+WCDMA+GSM
2G: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
3G: WCDMA 900/2100MHz
4G: FDD-LTE 800/1800/2100/2600MHz

Notice the Vernee Apollo comes with the band 20 (800MHz)
The phone signal is nice and strong iv not had a problem with signal as of yet
Also the WIFI on ther Vernee is strong and is picking up a lot of local networks other phones dont


Other Features
I/O Interface: 1 x Micro SIM Card Slot,1 x Nano SIM Card Slot,3.5mm Audio Out Port,Micophone,Speaker,TF/Micro SD Card Slot,Type-C
Bluetooth Version: V4.0
Sensor: Ambient Light Sensor,Gravity Sensor,Gyroscope,Hall Sensor,Proximity Sensor
Additional Features: 3G,4G,Alarm,Bluetooth,Browser,Calculator,Calendar,Fingerprint recognition,Fingerprint Unlocking,GPS,MP3,MP4,People,Wi-Fi

The Phones 2k screen comes to life when your viewing the photos you have taken this is where you notice the screen quality,making them look like there so real and coming out of the phone almost(But a draw back to the 2k screen is it sucks the battery life)Between 2 & 3 hours is the most your going to get when using the VR headset or gaming.But with that said normal day to day use as a phone you will easly get a full days use from it.

WIFI (Dual Band 2.4/5Ghz)802.11a/b/g/n/ac

[Image: 14buudg.png]


The big selling points to me are the
2k Screen
Deca core GPU
21MP Camera
4GB RAM/64GB ROM
All Metal Body
OTG Function

The draw backs are
Finger print scanner needs improvment
Battery life is not so good while using VR & gaming



Whats in the box

Cell Phone: 1
Power Adapter: 1
USB Cable: 1
English Manual : 1
SIM Needle: 1
Other: 1 x VR Box
