The Phones Still To Come From Elephone This Year
Elephone are looking to tackle every level of the Smartphone industry this year with the launch of many new devices at a variety of price points. So let's take a few moments to look at these versatile and disparate devices still to come this year and we may even have a few discount codes for you guys.
The Vowney
The vowney will come in two variants: standard and lite that whilst looking identical, have some larger changes than you would expect.

The devices appear to be all high end, both variants show an impressive feature list. The 2K display is 2560*1440 (535 PPI), they support both video capture in 4k and MicroSD up to 128GB. Unlike many OEMs, Elephone is not just giving an increase in storage for that bump in price, as well as the additional storage you also get an extra GB of RAM, and a resolution increase. This isn't bad for just $60 extra. For $10 off the pre-order price at Elephone.cc you can use the code: FUNVOWNEY.
As a juxtaposition let's now take a look at the Elephone Q, their attempt at the world's smallest smart phone

Now the device is intended to be used by children or in a sports band, now I personally had a hands on with this device and had significant difficulty using the on-screen keyboard due to the tiny keys, however for small people or those willing to use voice features a lot, the device is easier to use. For $30 off use the code FUNELEQ at elephone.cc bringing the price down to just $69.99.
The Elephone Trunk

A few features Elephone seems keen to flaunt are 4G LTE, 178° viewing angle and the Samsung camera sensor. Elephone.cc will be shipping these starting on October 25 and you can use the code CDC5USD to get $5 off your order (better than nothing).

The 16GB of storage is a bit disappointing however these specs may not be final and there have been rumours of a third variant which may see improved features. It's not long to wait now however, and it is good to see OEMs taking up Marshmallow so soon after release.
All these devices can be picked up from Elephone.cc
