  1. Coolpad Conjr is an affordable metal phone with a gCoolpad released an oddball phone - the Conjr. It’s a $180 phone that offers some really top notch specs but a strange choice of chipset derails the whole thing.
  2. The Coolpad Conjr has a sleek metal body with 2.5D glass on the front (70.6% screen-to-body ratio). The screen, by the way, is a 5” IPS LCD of 720p resolution.
  3. Its camera department is particularly impressive, the main camera has a 13MP sensor and OIS, while the selfie cam has an 8MP sensor. Both cameras have LED flash and f/2.2 aperture. There’s even a fingerprint reader on the back.
  4. And here’s where it goes wrong - the Conjr has a quad-core processor (Cortex-A53) clocked at a mere 1GHz. That’s it! And it can’t even record 1080p video, capping the camera at 720p. There’s plenty of RAM - 3GB! - but that feels like too much for a lowly CPU like that.
  5. The Conjr runs Cool UI 8.0 (based on Android 6.0) and has 16GB of built-in storage, expandable through the microSD slot. Note that it’s a hybrid slot, the microSD replaces the second SIM. Yep, this is a dual-SIM phone with LTE connectivity (150Mbps) and 9 hours of talk time on 3G with the 2,500mAh battery.

  8. There’s no word on launch date yet, but the phone will work with GSM carriers in the US (AT&T, T-Mobile, US Cellular) and there should be a Gold version later on.reat camera and terrible chipset:
