YU Yunique Review: Best Budget 4G Smartphone?

By on Email @exolete

The YU Yunique is the answer to Xiaomi's Redmi 2 Prime. At a lower price point it offers similar specs in a similar form factor with almost stock Android. The Yunique offers good build quality, good battery-life and does work well most of the time. The software needs polish, performance needs to be improved, which may just be a few OTA updates away. Overall the YU Yunique at its current price point is one of the best budget 4G LTE devices in the market.
