Received my UMI Rome today. Build quality is absolutely ok for the low price.
Yes, the battery compartment has only a thin adhesive foil taped over the "flex cables", I don't see a problem here, it's functional.
Metal frame and chassis in general looks very clean, clearance between parts is also very precise, no complaints here. Maximum brightness is good, replaced the screen protector used for shipping with the actual one included in the delivery.
The 2 point touch makes it feel sluggish some times, because the display obviously has trouble with fast (multiple) input rates. No backlit buttons, just engraved, but we already knew that.
The device comes pre-rooted with SuperSU 2.46 installed, running on almost stock Android 5.1 (plus your usual MTK & engineer tools ^^).
"Launcher3" is used as the default launcher, replace it with your own favorite.
I updated to SuperSu 2.49 Pro and installed it as a system app. Busybox was already installed.
edit: Android System WebView needs to be updated manually. Google Maps test with tilting and rotating the map worked well for the most part, that brave little touch screen is doing the best he can.
