Pros
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
Cubot X100 pairs a 5100 mAh battery with familiar Android software. The 8/256 GB configuration provides room for everyday apps and photos. The 8 GB RAM figure refers to physical memory, without virtual expansion.
The secondary rear screen lets you check the time and basic information while the phone lies face down. It is a small but handy detail for a desk or workspace.
The 120 Hz display makes scrolling through pages and menus look smoother. Its 6.88-inch size is handy for messages, videos and maps. That helps in everyday use, although game frame rates still depend on the chipset.
Fast charging at up to 33 W makes it easier to top up the large battery during a stop or break. Reaching that power requires a compatible charger and cable. Charging slows as the battery approaches full.
