In barely 2 weeks, China’s Umeox X5 has beaten Huawei’s Ascend P6 as the world’s thinnest phone at only 5.66mm thick. This white-box vendor has heat up the competition for smartphones to be ultra thin while maintaining the trend of bigger screen displays. This is a strategic offering by Umeox, with analysts saying the low end and emerging markets are the next fertile fields for growth in smartphone sales.
The initial retail price of Umeox X5 is US$258.25. For a full functioning smartphone, this is affordable. However, if you compare it’s specifications to other existing smartphones, you may not expect a great experience. One good thing though, it runs on Android. In contrast, the dimension for other smartphones are : Ascend P6 – 6.18mm; Samsung Galaxy S4 – 7.9mm; iPhone 5 – 7.6mm.

Dubbed as the world’s first slimmest smartphone of this kind at 6.5mm thick, this baby is packed with features that will make you look at smartphones in a whole new different light. With a length of almost 180mm and a little over 92mm width, the Xperia Z Ultra will immediately become one of the largest devices available on the market to date. Comparable to Samsung’s Galaxy Mega 6.3, it’s definitely bigger than the Samsung Galaxy Note II, and the 6.1in Huawei Ascend Mate. Having Xperia Z Ultra built at this size, it kind of blurs the line between a smartphone and a tablet.

Is bigger better?
To expand its market reach, Samsung launched two extra large devices, 6.3 inch LTE ready and 5.8 inch version – the biggest thus far. Branded as Galaxy Mega, one would struggle to fit in pocket or use it with just one hand. The good thing, it is only 8mm thin and weigh under 200 grams. More portable than a tablet it comes with polycarbonate body which is durable. Unlike most of Samsung’s latest smartphones, it does not have super AMOLED panel. Instead, it has HD super clear LCD display which is bright enough to please most users. It features split screen and multitasking between video and other apps. It also has the newest version of TouchWiz where you can have smooth experience and speed as Galaxy S4.
