UMi has recently launched its newest handset — the Diamond. A bargain-priced handset with a premium-looking metal and glass shell. The phone has a 5-inch 1280x720 pixel display and, under the shiny externals, we've got a 1.5 GHz, octa-core MediaTek 6753 SoC, 3 GB of RAM, 16 GB of expandable memory, an 8 MP main camera and 2 MP selfie snapper. All this is currently going for $99.99 as a pre-sale promotion.The Diamond is meant for youngsters and active folk who might put their phone in danger more often than usual. As such, it was designed to withstand more punishment than its exterior suggests it can. UMi has released a couple of videos to showcase the Diamond's resistance to abuse.
There's also a video, which shows the UMi Diamond being tortured inside a lab — drops, bends, temperature and humidity, this phone can take some punishment.
