Here's a nice objective review of the Umidigi S2: https://www.devicespecifications.com/en/editor-rev ...

And it's true. The only thing still bugging me is the camera. Never had such a bad camera in a smartphone..

I really like the speed of this phone, wasn't expecting it to be fast.  
The memory saving aspects are aggressive, you change apps expect your old one to be shut down, but speed makes up for it as it doesn't take long to reopen.
The big negatives are the battery charging is screwed.  Mine sometimes doesn't charge at all when I plug it in, but flashes between "Charger has been linked" and "Charger has been unplugged" and the % doesn't change.  Apparently there's been a wifi update to fix this - it hasn't.
The reception (antenna) on this phone appears to be rubbish.  I get constant dropouts of data connections all over the place, even using wifi at the other end of my (small) house.
Don't know if mine is just a bad phone or if this is true of all the preorder phones?

Congratulations on your new flagship product. Please don't forget us owners of your "slightly" older flagship E Plus, which still hasn't been upgraded to Android 7 or 8.

Hello, i"m new owner of a Umidigi S2 phone. I'm using it for a few days, it work very fine but there are 2 main problems that I noticed: no ANT+ harware support and no Voice over Bluetooth. I've tryied 2-3 pairs oh bluetooth headphones and still no voice calls over BT. It play music very fine but no calls. It a general problem or I didn't manage to solve it?

What do you mean with this :  "no ANT+ harware support"?????
Please delete all Bluetooth devices, reboot your phone and pair device again. Then please go to Bluetooth, choose your paired device and check all options in settings.

There is no official android 7 supplied by us so I suspecting that you used completely not compatible firmware. As we mentioned this several times Umidigi S2 not supporting android 7 and this will not change !!!!!!!
Now you need follow this tutorial

If firmware upgrade don't fix your device you need change to format + download in SPFT.
After format + download you need restore IMEI number with SN writer

Of course incompatible firmware which you installed could damage hardware.
