Elephone P9000 Quick Impression and Review Philippines Price Specs

We are done with Elephone P8000 and Elephone S1, now we are going to do a quick impression on Elephone P9000.



Elephone P9000 comes in straight metallic frame and glass front panel accented with antenna lines. There are two colors available for its arc back - Black Sandstone and Glossy White.  The Black Sandstone has great feel to it and does not attract fingerprints compared to glossy white. There is one square capacittive key located upfront which pretty much functions as regular navigation keys - one tap for back double tap for home and long press for app menu. As for ports and buttons, the 3.5mm is located on top; speaker grills and USB Type-C at the bottom; right side power / lock button and volume rocker; left side is the hybrid microSD / Sim card Slot as well as Special Custom button. It sports a 5.5 inch Full LTPS Display which made by LG for immersive viewing pleasure matched with strong audio via its speakers, making the P9000 a great entertainment device. Elephone really does make good-looking, solid and handy smartphones which is imbued by P9000.


From beauty to power, Elephone P9000 carries a new and powerful Mediatek Helio P10 MT6755 64bit Octa-Processor with Mali T860 supplemented with ample memory at 4GB RAM and 32GB Internal Storage. You can expand storage even more though you need to give up one sim slot via its hybrid slot. Suprising enough navigation was smooth and ran every app and multitasking with ease. Scored 45K with Antutu Benchmark. Look here:


Runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box with few added features by Elephone such as motion, gesture controls and among others. Guess that's why runs effortlessly as there are only few apps running on the background. Fingerprint sensor gives you great security as it is your personal touch to unlock your device.


Moving on to Elephone P9000 optics, makes use of Sony IMX 258 sensor for its 13MP rear camera and OmniVision 8858 8MP front camera. Per samples exif it revealed that rear camera has an aperture size of f/2.0 and front at f/2.4 aperture. This is relevant why? because the lower the aperture number the bigger is the camera opening therefore morelight can enter so good for low light photography.

Here are camera samples.

Above we have done a Focus Test, Left Picture focused on the Glass while Right focuses on the background. Laser AF did its job in quickly focus on the subjects. Output is clear even as you zoom in you can see little bits of detail although we wished it as more variance as colors looks bland compared to camera sample taken with P8000.

Per Selfie Test, it has more improved output compared to S1 and P8000. It did'nt come out washout but just grainy but still decent output in low light condition this is due to its f/2.4 aperture. Guess in good lighting condition, we will see improvements in its outputs.

Complete set of connectivity features which includes WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and NFC. Ultrafast LTE is present for more dependable internet connection. This is a Dual Sim handset via its hybrid slot however like I said before you need to sacrifice if you want Dual Sim Versus Additional Storage with the use of P9000 hybrid slot. Makes use of USB Type-C Port for charging and data which is good as it is future-proof but you do have problems getting accesories as they are limited as of the moment.

Elephone P9000 carries a 3000mAh battery but with its strong internal hardware and connectivvity feature it should last you half a day of moderate use. However you can charge it fast as Elephone supports quick charge via its its USB Type-C port as well as supports wireless charging for no frills and cables seamless charging. Wireless charger will be free for P9000 and will serve as its main charger.

Package includes the Unit, Data Cable, TPU Jelly Case and Sim Ejector. Kinda weird though Elephone did add the wall charger however they did give out a Wireless Charger for free. Oh No Headset included.

Elephone P9000 is a strong contender in the market for its good looks and top quality built, powerful and updated internals and Sony IMX primary camera. Can be considered as versatile performer that can be yours for only 11,499 Pesos. It will be exclusive on sale with Lazada Philippines on April 18, 2016 12nn. Product page follows:
