Oukitel’s K4000 gets maxed out

When we reviewed the Oukitel K4000 Pro toughphone last month it came with a pretty standard Android UI.

Latest versions of the K4000 though will come with a new 'max' interface that puts fewer but larger icons on each screen. It also offers a bigger dial pad, so the phone should appeal to older users and to others who struggle to cope with smaller icons.

The main screen puts three fixed apps at the bottom of the screen for phone functions and displays six more of the user's choice above. Users can set eight frequently used numbers too, each with its own large icon for easy access,

To mark the launch of the new interface, Chinese tech site Gearbest will be offering a 13 percent discount on the K4000, selling it at $86.99 from June 6 to 30, and all orders will be sent out with the new updates.

You can see a video of the new interface in action below.
