Coolpad Note 5 review: Another phone where battery is the focus
Source: The Indian Express English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
Coolpad Note 5 does have quite a few points going for it like design, display, and battery. But the brand faces competition from rivals such as Xiaomi and Lenovo. Given Coolpad as a brand, isn’t as popular, it will have a tough time convincing users that it is worthy of the price tag.

75% Coolpad Note 5 review: A valiant effort, but not enough to topple competition
Source: Tech2.in.com English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The smartphone gets a lot right and some wrong. I was happy with the performance even though it wasn’t as good in the benchmark result. Battery life, the build quality and even the display has been done right. The UI was a bit of an overload, but it still runs smooth. The camera was probably a big disappointment as the quality did not match my expectations.

70% Coolpad Note 5 Review
Source: Think Digit English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
While the Coolpad Note 5 may have more RAM than its peers, it does seem to utilise it properly. In performance, it is soundly beaten by the likes of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 and the LeEco Le 2. The best aspect of the phone is its battery life. But even then, the Redmi Note 3 and the Redmi 3S Prime can offer the same battery life. I find it very hard to recommend the Coolpad Note 5 over those other phones because of its sub-par display and comparatively weaker performance.

Definitely the Coolpad Note5 has a lot of impressive features such as fast performance, long lasting battery backup and dual applications. The smartphone is a good choice, but compared to Redmi Note 3 and Le eco Le 2 the Coolpad Note 5 needs a little twitch in built and camera performance to win economic smartphones battle.

As a budget smartphone, Coolpad ticks nearly all the right boxes. Be it the pleasing design, vibrant display or the lasting battery, Coolpad's newest offering left us impressed. The only downer we could find was the phone getting a little hot during gaming, but that's not a deal breaker.

Coolpad Note 5 Review - Just everything is right about it
Source: The Mobile Indian English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
Currently, the sub-Rs 12,000 segment is being dominated by the likes of Le 2, Redmi Note 3, Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus and Moto G4. But this new handset might change the dynamics of the segment atleast for sometime. In terms of specs, it looks bit better than its competitors with 4 GB RAM while others have 3 GB or 2 GB RAM. The Coolpad Note 5 has infact very few cons and its pros are far too many. So in our view, if you are looking for a sub-Rs 11,000 phone, then you should keep the Coolpad Note 5 in your shortlist.

Coolpad Note 5 Review – A Fully loaded phone
Source: Gadget Diary English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
Coolpad is one of the known and best smartphone player in sub 15k INR category in India. With Coolpad Note 5 they have again proved that they are serious about bringing best devices at affordable prices. The phone brings some surprisingly good specifications and offers tough competition to phones like Xiaomi Redmi Note 3. It is a very good buy at a price tag of Rs. 10,999 and personally I think if you want a device with a great camera, good performance, and impressive battery life then Coolpad Note 5 can be a good choice.

It’s interesting to note that the main differences between this model and the now-discontinued Note 3 and Note 3 Plus are all on the outside. In some ways, such as screen resolution, microSD card support and battery capacity, this phone is actually a step backwards from the Note 3 Plus – which even cost Rs. 1,000 less at launch. Either Coolpad has decided to prioritise looks over features with the Rs. 9,999 Note 3S, or inflation has taken a bite out of its spec sheets.

The Coolpad Note 3S comes at a time when it faces a lot of competition, both externally and within the Coolpad family too. While we liked the design and clean software build, the small battery and average camera don’t give us much confidence. The specs too are somewhat weak. The Coolpad Note 3S is priced at Rs. 9,999 and is available exclusively from Amazon.in.

Then there are the phones like the Lenovo K6 Power and the Moto G Turbo, both of which are formidable devices with prices very close to that of the Coolpad Note 3S.

The Coolpad Note 5 Lite is hard to recommend over its competition. While the device does look good, and is decently built, it lags behind the competition in terms of performance.

The Coolpad Note 5 Lite is in a war zone right now. It is priced in a segment that sees new entrants every other week. Expectations are high, and this phone does look good compared to what some bigger brands sell. However, there is still competition from other Chinese companies, most notably the Xiaomi Redmi 3s which is a very strong contender.

Coolpad Note 5 lite review: Good looks, average performance
Source: Gadgets Now English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
We'll say that there are a few good aspects and a few not-so-good things about the smartphone, We liked the build quality and design and found the performance to be mostly smooth. However, heating issues (during navigation) and bad battery life are downers. But at a price of Rs 8,199, you can't expect a smartphone to be flawless. We would suggest spending some more money and buying Coolpad Note 5 instead, however, if you are too tight on budget then Coolpad Note 5 Lite is not a bad option either.

Coolpad Note 5 Lite does hit most of the good points, however, it will surely have a tough time at this price with the likes of Redmi 3S Prime sitting in the same category. Coolpad has had a mixed response with some of the recent devices though the Note 5 Lite is surely a step forward. As a first cut verdict, the Note 5 Lite could have been better in terms of battery and the chipset front and we hope to be proved wrong when we come out with our detailed review.

68% Coolpad Note 6 64GB Review
Source: Think Digit English EN→zh-CN Archive.org version
The Coolpad Note 6 seems like it's lagging behind its rivals. But being an offline only offering, the Note 6 will be more readily available than most of the critically-acclaimed mid-range phones. That seems like a conscious decision on the part of Coolpad as the brand remains popular in the tier 2 and tier 3 cities where online shopping is still a novelty. But even being an offline-only brand isn’t enough to escape the clutches of the intense competition that the mid-range market is seeing. Most of the online-dominating brands are rapidly expanding in the offline market include Xiaomi, Honor and Moto and Coolpad might have a hard time competing with them with the Note 6.

As we mentioned earlier, the segment which Coolpad Note 6 competes is terribly competitive. For a smartphone to succeed, it needs to have an edge over the competition. While the Coolpad Note 6 is a phone that might just appeal to users who want a basic smartphone. The battery life is certainly a high point but if you take into account the design and performance, you might see yourself moving on to other smartphones. Perhaps the idea was to offer a differentiator – dual front cameras -- in this segment but that also isn’t great by any standards. The Coolpad Note is just another budget smartphone offering which might just click with an average user who isn’t looking for too many details like stylish design, great performance or a very good camera.

The Coolpad Note 6 has a few strengths. It’s built well, looks presentable, and has good battery life. The Snapdragon 435 isn’t the most appealing SoC at this price, but it’s competent enough to handle the usual messaging apps and that odd game or two. The offline availability of this phone will be a big draw for many people who still prefer to try before they buy. Do keep in mind that the cameras are pretty mediocre and the display is relatively dull. Also, while the older version of Android doesn't really lack in essential features, Coolpad needs to rectify the outdated security.
