I have the same problem (EU version). This causes a weaker GSM (..., 4G) signal or a weaker WiFi signal. Mobile searches for something better and when both signals (GSM, ... and Wifi signal) fall out, it is a complete disaster. I have no idea that works 100%. I think updating Carrier services has improved, but I do not guarantee.
The behavior of the whole Android under the original launcher Quickstep 3 I did not like, so I use another (from the competition MS). The problem is not fixed, but it is better.

HI odenide !

Depending on the file size (± 70 KB), the photo has a very low resolution. At the highest resolution in the preinstalled application, the file size is 8 MB (4096x2304).

Hi onedine !

Thank you for your explanation (inserting photos).

The photo can also look like this (attachment). I wondered why your photos look like this, but it won't be the resolution. Did you happen to zoom? The camera has large gaps in this.
This photo I had to crop.

Now, Umidigi is selling these devices on their official eBay shop on a discount.  But, I will not and make sure others that I know, to NEVER buy another Umidigi device ever, not again. After sales, customer care and tech support is limited, almost none to zero - useless and hopeless.  If budget or money is tight, one is better off buying a pre-owned device at similar prices as these, and take a chance.  It's been almost 4 months since the last update and there are still bugs and software issues to get patched, fixed and improve upon, excluding Android Security patches.  

I've since dirty flashed (without wiping data partition) mine running the newer Global rom and switched to the EU rom, it is dated a few days newer.  It might just help some of you with WiFi and/or connectivity issues, it might not - won't hurt to do this.  Just read the instructions and make your backup, store those safely on a PC or standalone USB drive, etc. - just in case.  Camera (rear/main triple ones) still defective (early production ones that Umi shipped in July last year) - wide angle & front/selfie camera works fine - not likely for it to get fixed.  

Switching back to a Xiaomi global dual-sim smartphone (running Android 10 stock rom, very smoothly) - this will be just a backup and for play - too bad, company will never catch up with the major brands.  I have a Google Pixel XL (2016) and it updated to run Android 10 stock, smoothly.  

Umidigi - your loss and you lost it.

Hola admin, me gustaría y no solo a mi si no a muchos de los propietario de este equipo, cuando facilitaran una nueva actualización? compre el celular por el echo de darle una oportunidad a esta marca, tengo amigos que les recomendé el equipo, hasta ahora me siento decepcionado, el equipo tiene con que defenderse pero su problema mas fuerte son las actualizaciones, los equipos presentan fallas ya sea de cámara lag y cierre de app, pensando que seria solo el mio no fue así, por favor presten atención a la comunidad, navegando por acá vi que se olvidan rápidamente de los equipos y no sacan mas actualizaciones, siendo sincero si esto sigue así muchos dejaran de comprar mas celulares Umidigi y se irán a otra que estén mas al tanto de sus usuarios.
