It claims to have a Dimensity 9000 SoC and if you include 12GB of RAM this seems pretty powerful for a very inexpensive price. I can’t find any reviews on it though.

Any thoughts?

I personally wouldn’t buy a technological device from AliExpress, especially if there is no reviews including any photos.

Without actual photoes yeah, but you can buy a lot of awesome things from there.

What would you use it for? There’s no way I’d put any of my login credentials on there, or any thing that has any access to payments. Nothing that has access to my personal data or communications, so… seems like a non-starter for me.

I might get something that connects to my WiFi, but only to the guest network, or a separate network.

Basically assume that it has some irremovable malware in the firmware.

Yeah but I only buy from AliExpress if I am ok with losing the money i paid for in case it’s a scam so I’ve only bought some cheap USBs from there.

Edit: typo

I know people who have and they’re pretty satisfied with their purchases (mostly for audio stuff, though). But I agree i won’t buy something there without reviews.

You can buy devices from ali but not anything especially generic devices with insane specs. I got flagship phones from there $200 or $100 less than other places. B
