Are Mizo & Elephone the same company?
#1
I recently bought a Mizo i9 and I am having a few issues with it.

I was looking on Mizo's webpage and noticed this response to Q2 on their service page.

Quote: Q2: Do the phones have "Exchangeable battery" ?
All Elephone smartphones have removable back and exchangeable battery.

Ha! Nice catch! If they're not the same company, they definitely plagiarized. Hehe. Wink

A very strange mistake indeed. I'm constantly amazed at the *typical* Asian refusal to properly market their international products. It defies all reason. Confused

It's not just one company, and it's not just China. It's probably not just Asia either, but because so many things are produced in Asia, perhaps it seems more prominent. Dodgy

It ranges from simple things like the page from the OP, instructions on how to flash their phones, manuals, marketing slogans. Ulefone Be Touch 2 - "joint snap up event". WHUT THE HOLY F*K? Drool It's truly astonishing.

On the Elephone main page - "Subscribe to be the first to know about Sales,Evebts,and Exclusive Offers!". Crying

I was just going to say THL had done a great job marketing their latest THL 2015, but then I saw they're using some words straight from Blu marketing material - [Image: Rn8cZpe.jpg] Dunno ..and no favicon for their site?
Whut?

The thing is that this is not difficult stuff to fix. You just need a native speaker to patch it up, but apparently this is beyond them. Wanna fight?

Errr... Ummm... Did I just say all that out loud? Hehe!

To address the OP, no I don't think they are connected. The most likely explanation is as @Wuddawaste surmised. That this was a cut and paste job. I could be wrong, but if so, it would be a rare occasion Cool

Thank you for the replies.

I did think that maybe it was blatant plagiarism, but thought I'd ask in case someone knew differently.

Anyway my problems with this phone are mounting up on a daily basis and so far this make and model are far from a pleasure to use.

I'll be posting in the relevant sub forums for help as so far the customer care is a little slow to respond and Mizo's technical support email address provided on their website is either full or no longer valid, as all I get are error messages when trying to contact them.
