I don’t sell lies, so I go straight: MIJUE M680 is a decent phone but not as they advertise it. Actually there are two versions of this smartphone. One for American market and one for rest of the world. First, this smartphone comes with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean not with Android 4.4 KitKat. Second, the rear camera will not making 13 MP photos, but “only” 8 MP (OK, will make kind of 13 MP with interpolation feature, but it doesn’t have Sony eye).
The one on the upper image is world market ready, and the second one is for American market. I believe you already assuming why: round button looks like one on the iPhone, and the other is just like Samsung button bar.
Even with a Samsung’s button bar, MIJUE M680 still looks as one of the Apple’s iPhone 5 series.
Here is the short list of some key features:
– 5.0″ IPS 5-Point touch capacitive qHD screen with 960 x 540 pixels screen resolution and supports WiFi Display function
– Rear camera 8MP (interpolated 13MP) support video call, Selfie, auto-focus, flash light and other functions
– Support Gesture Sensing and OTG humanization Function
– Supports Google Navigation, built-in GPS navigation with A-GPS assisted
– Built-in Google Play Store,Google Play installed with original Google Mobile Service, convenient to download and enjoy the Play Music, Chrome, Youtube and others.

Frankly said I didn’t try rooting M680, but I don’t see why couldn’t you make it happen (as I said it would be nice to have KitKat on this phone).
Battery will serve you for a day if you use it gently (a bit of WiFi, a bit of games, a bit of music&video)…if you leave WiFi always ON and like to play games more than occasionally, hm then some 8-9 hours would be the limit.

Hi,
Although I give this phone a high rate for the screen, processor, and Camera, I give 0 (zero) for the battery. Ask my why?… good. I didn’t buy the phone until now, unfortunately, I advised my friend to buy it based on your review and guess what !!! The battery life is extremly bad. He told me that even with the phone on Standby mode (no WiFi, No games, No fucken guy even using the phone), the battery don’t withstand for 4 or 5 hours. How this ? where the fucken charge go ?
This is a waste of money, time and power. My friend already lost his money buying this bad phone and also is going to lose money paid for battery charging several times per day.
Now, what you could say ? Where is the truth about this phone ? Is this a manufacturer drawbacks ?

I’m really sorry for your and your friend’s loss. The battery life is very poor in your case and I don’t know why. Frankly said I haven’t count for hours but be sure that I was able to pull working day with one charge (meaning going work at 8 am and come back at 4.30 pm), WiFi was always on and I catch a time to play games (at the end battery was on 4%-7%). If we would go more far than this, than this is so true: my Toshiba Satellite C55-A-1NU died in month two of using it. Why? I don’t know. HDD was damaged and notebook was brand new. So sh..t happens even for Toshiba. Here we are talking about Chinese smartphones still prone to bad luck (but they are getting better every day), but you might get lucky getting one that actually work. You never know how you might be surprised.
Best wishes

The camera never gave sharp focused pictures
The flash made no differance in poor light.
The processor could not handle watching music video , makeing receiving calls and blue tooth togeather
etc….

For this price range it is very good smartphone and looks like iPhone as most important to me. What else could you ask for? I am satisfied with MIJUE as a Chinese smartphone vendor and considering to buy their tablet MIJUE M780 which has also some good characteristics but overlaps a bit my budget range (it is $190).

Great phone , had it for abot a month and a half. My main problem is compatibility issues such as root access and accessories. Also, battery life and wifi range are fairly poor.
