[Question] Which 5.5" 13Mp chinaphone choose? See list

[benwake]

Hey everyone,

I want to change my Galaxy Nexus and I was thinking of a China phone.
But there are a lot of phones out there that got my attention.
In the beginning I was going for the Inew V3, 5".
Now, I am thinking of buying a 5.5" or more.

I already did my homework



Which one from this list do you recommend or absolutely do not recommend?
If you have other brand/models don't hesitate to tell me

Thanks in advance for your help.
Ben

thanks, but indeed, not available yet :/
the new list:

There is potentially a big difference in pricing between some of those phones.
1)What is your price range?
2)What frequencies do you need?(They differ from manufacturer to manufacturer)
3)What are the key things you want out of the phone? For example Camera, CPU power....?

if you do not need Dual Sim and have cash to burn wait for the Find 7. no matter if its 50MP camera or dual 13MP lol
Heck, Adam Outler is using a Find 5, cant be bad.

Thanks for the answers, I forgot to mention that:
1/ for a 5" I had a budget of 200$ in mind, for a 5.5" 300$
2/ The most important thing is the camera, definitely
3/ 3G in Belgium (900/2100Mhz) and GPS are less important, but I will be happy if they work
4/ The rest is less important (cpu, graphics, ...)
5/ I don't want a Iphone clone

I hope this answers your questions

Phones like the Find 7, Xiaomi Mi3s, Vivo X3s, and ZTE Nubia X6 are going to be outside of the $200-$300 range you have in mind. The Iocean X8 also might but there is no real confirmed pricing yet.
I would say take a good look at the Zopo ZP998 and the Umi X3 is due out in about a week. Both of these are under$300 . Also the H9008 would do the trick.

Thanks for the tip.
Do we have an idea when these phones come out ?
Like the Umi X3, Iocean X8, Xiaomi Mi3s? Or even the Xiaomi Hongmi 2, Oppo Find 7, ZTE Nubia X6, .. ?

I want to know how long I will have to wait, because there are so many models, there will always be a new phone to wait for ;)

What is the difference between those:
MT6589
MT6589T
MTK6589T

MT6582
MTK6592

The umi x3 is due out on the 15th of this month. The rest should be out within the next few months.

As for the tech, the mtk6589 and mtk6589t are the same except the t model is faster,1.5ghz instead of 1.2, they are last years models and use powervr GPUs.
The mt6582 is the newer version of the quad core at 1.3ghz and a mali400 GPU. Benchmarks slightly higher and seems to give better real world performance.
The mt6592 is the octacore at1.7ghz. Its the most powerful of the bunch and is using the mali450 as a GPU. There is also a version clocked at 2.0.
Mt6595 is the upcoming 4g octacore.

I think I will wait a couple of weeks for some of the phones to come out, but these are my préférences:
5" -> iNew V3 & Smartnote X1
5"+ -> Umi X3 & Oppo ZP998.
