Battery

But Oukitel K7000 includes a 5,000mAh ‘battery charging case’ called ‘Matrix’, which will add tons of battery to the phone if you opt to use it. This is essentially an external battery case for the device, and interesting enough, you can use this case to charge up some other devices if needed.
Oukitel is marketing this phone as the ‘slimmest phone with a massive battery’ (the phone is 0.87 cm thin, and Oukitel is actually using the 7,000mAh battery + 4mm thickness to market the phone), and even though that’s not exactly accurate considering we’re talking about an external case here which adds quite a bit of thickness, it’s nice of them to ship the phone with the ‘Matrix’ case and give you some options, that’s for sure. On top of all this, the ‘Matrix’ case can be used as a stand as well, which is also a nice option. In case you’re wondering, the company did not share the phone’s measurements when you put a case on it, but we do imagine it gets quite a bit thicker.
