I have always been a Nokia user with a Windows operating system, and I am no technical expert, so the change over to Android system was a bit of a shock, but in a nice way, as I was able to do so much more with it. I mainly use my phone for business emails and keeping up to date with news whilst travelling, and the response speed of the phone is certainly fast.The next day delivery via my prime account was so efficient, particularly as I needed to have the phone before an overseas trip. The first thing noticable, was that the phone had arrived with the battery already fully charged! So I was able start setting up the new phone immediately. A nice touch.Although a larger phone that what I am used to, it is nice and light to handle, the screen size is good for reading emails easily and following news updates etc. So, I can see the attraction for those who want to run games or watch movies.I particulary liked the sim card slot that could be accessed without dismantling the phone to get to your sim card. I also liked 'Easy Launcher' as it produces a screen of windows for most important items, such as contacts, settings, photos,camera etc, which are so much easier to use ( well for me anyhow being used to windows phone) than the various screen buttons on Android phones.I initially had some issues with my Tesco Sim card and access to the internet, but the supply company Trade U Tech service dept were very helpful with advice and guided me though the process to sort the Sim card hiccup. So good back up for owners of this phone.For me, with a price of under £100, the Note 14 is certainly a great budget phone, with lots of goodies, more of which I am sure I shall discover over the coming months.Update 21.11.22 : For the past week, I have been discovering all the delights of this phone. Transferring across my apps and personal stuff with so easy, and I was surprised that my Bluetooth earpiece for my Windows phone was picked up instantly by the phone. So I have added an extra star.

I have edited my review, having had it a few months now.I do like this phone, with a couple of reservations. I added Google Pay easily enough but then discovered phone doesn't support NFC so you can't tap to pay! My previous phone was Android 8 and I had no problems with Google Pay, so wants going on?I initially found it charged quite slowly, but this has improvedFinally phone is supposed to come with UK plug. Don't know what I got but not UK. True, it has three pins but plug is funny shape, has two metal pins and one plastic one!

It's been a while since I wrote an Amazon review. I thought I would make the effort in this case as I really just can't get over how good this phone is. After perusing all the cheapy phones I decided to order this one as it had very decent specs for the price. After ordering I thought it would be a good idea to watch some YouTube videos, I know that seems daft but if I did it the other way round I would never be able to make my mind up. There was only one video where the person actually talks, and he turns the phone on and it looks kind of sluggish, and slow. My phone did this when I first switched it on too, however after everything had downloaded and I had updated everything, I can happily say the phone is running nice and fast, after changing some settings the phone works perfectly, please see bellow.Important! There was a worrisome moment when I thought there was no way to navigate through the phone, as there were no buttons on the screen, turns out the phone comes factory set with gestures as the main way to navigate the phone, this may be a common function on phones nowadays but I'm not used to it I actually disabled that function in my last phone the first day I got it. Easily fixe in the settings. There are a couple of other nit pics but they can all be sorted out in the settings. Oh, there's a couple of things that you will need to turn on which I at least, took for granted would be done automatically, like when you sign into your wifi, if you go out of range and it disconnects, your phone won't automatically sign into the wifi when you get back into range, you need to change that in the settings too.After the phone was all set up I am delighted with it. I tend to have a phone for years before upgrading, I'm only upgrading this time as my last phone took a swan dive into the bath with me, for it's third and, unfortunately final swim :( It was a Moto X Style, which was a really high end phone in it's day and she will be sadly missed. This Note 14 though, has made the transition a painless one :)I tend to go on quite a bit in my reviews on Amazon, but it's because if you are like me. you read the reviews when deciding if you are going to buy something. I really appreciate a decent review written by an actual human :) Yeah, if you are reading this review looking for a new phone, you should definitely get this phone, you will be chuffed to bits.PS, they have already fitted a screen protector to the phone , and provided a wee phone cover too, I man, that's just great bloomin customer service

In comparison to my other current phones (Google Pixel Pro 7 and Samsung A50) this is a simple phone on Android. That is not to say this Ulefone Note 14 is a bad phone, as it does tick my needs for its intended use. For me, the main purpose will be for this to act as a holiday phone, given the price, it will be the one I can afford to lose if something unfortunate happens. I've never heard of Ulefone and I took some time before making this purchase, as I was a bit dubious about the brand.Everything works fine and the phone charges well. The camera is ok for the price paid, with patience using the focus, you can get some simple shots, although they don't compare well against my other two phones - probably an unfair comparison. I really do love the fact that the phone comes with a screen protector and a transparent phone cover to protect the back of the device. Saves me time and money having to search for items like these, while improving my opinion regarding Ulefone's value/service.I was very tempted to buy an Ulefone Armor, but opted for this based on the budget price and potential loss when abroad. In my opinion, if you are looking for a phone roughly under £90, I think this phone is sufficient for all simple needs. If camera quality is really the be-all-and-end-all , then maybe, just maybe look at one of their higher spec models.
