No offence but on first glance U9X1 do look very much like Galaxy Nexus while I am still scratching head why the same spec for Z1 and Z1+ has such price tag? I mean U9Z1+ wasn't mean big screen nor battery power but it is selling higher price than U9Z1. I guess both Z1 and Z1+ should swap price tag LOL

However, with MediaTek MT6589 Cortex A7 chipset on board, it makes the trio U9 series a decent mid range Android Smartphone. Obviously it came with Vanilla Android with a minimal Ninetology own customization and custom apps. Sadly no LTE as well with current competitor is rising up with more and more budget LTE smartphone. Well, I am interested to see more interesting smartphone from Ninetology in future where I wish they could have their own style on their phone.
