THL T6 Pro: A Cozy 8-core Phone for the Autumn Market

Autumn is the ideal season to release new products: People are waiting for the Halloween and Christmas holidays. Being the star of fast developing consumer electronics market, cellphone companies will never be left behind. The leading companies like Samsung and Apple have announced their latest cellphone products, yet Google’s Nexus products are not even be leaked.

The 8-core Android cellphones have come to us months ago, even Qualcomm has broken its words to launched 8-core processors. Before Qualcomm’s 8-core processors are widely used, the only brands on this market are Samsung’s Exynos 54X0 series and MediaTek’s MTK6592. Exynos series have the bad reputation for battery-consumption and temperature control. And the lack of baseband patents make Samsung’s processors higher price for its extra cost. At the same time, MediaTek’s only 8-core processor MTK6592 has been sold over 6 months. Though not competitive with Qualcomm flagship 4-core processor like Snapdragon 800, MTK6592 is a quite decent processor: subordinate flagship performance, perfect battery-consumption and the low cost for manufacturers. Considering the upgrade version MTK6595 has been postponed several times, the MTK6592 is still trending in 2014 and 2015 spring.

Before the MTK6595 is mass produced, MTK6592 will slowly but steadily lower the price, in other words, cost down. From over $200 to the present price about $120, this process speeds up much. The model we’re talking today, THL T6 Pro is definitely an ambitious product. THL has brought us many classic cellphones: T100S, T200C, T11, and W11… Their recent models THL5000 and T6S did win reputation for cost/performance, battery-consumption, and build quality. While the THL5000 with over $260 and T6S with less than $90, there is a great gap between these two models. Considering the MTK6582 quad core phones have come with the low price, THL’s impossible to make a high-end quad core phone and mark it over $150. Thus THL chose to build the upgrade version of T6S, which is T6 Pro.

Sharing the same model with T6S, T6 Pro also has many same features with T6S. The specifications for T6 Pro is standard: MTK6592 octa core processors, 1GB RAM and 8GB ROM, 5” IPS HD screen, 2.0 MP and 8.0 MP dual cameras. Surely it aims at the customers who are eager to experience the octa core phones, yet worried about the unknown brand’s cheap products, or the unnecessary expensive ones.

The T6 Pro inherited simple but smart design. The same engineering plastics material on the back of T6 PRO feels quite different. The soft touch feels cozy, even in the cold weather days. The anti-slip surface is helpful when holding it in your hand. For this design, it won scores for anti-scratch part. The sound of speaker is impressive, so no need to worry you will miss the call. The T6 PRO used the three traditional button keys as well: menu, home and back. Fortunately the menu button has the right icon, not the multi-task icon on some other models. The power button and volume buttons are on the side of the phone which can easily access and the touch feels clear for each button. The 3.5mm microphone interface and micro USB interface are on the top. It feels better to hold the phone when charging it. At the bottom of the phone, the open slot of the back cover and the denoise microphone are here.

For the camera part, T6 PRO’s rear 8.0 MP camera lacks of unique features. But the main functions are supported: LED flashlight, auto-focus, panorama shot, face recognition, and continuous shot. Besides, it can toggle between 4:3 and 16:9 photo scale. The actual quality of the rear camera is decent for 8.0MP. The noise control is OK, but the glare prevention needs improvement.

The hardware performance of T6 PRO is within our expectation, both the Antutu benchmark and the 3D games / video playback experience is the normal MTK6592 level. 1GB RAM will be short for many background running apps. We agree that it can meet your daily demands as a starter phone. Though it’s an entry-level octa core phone, there is a long way between the T6 PRO and flagship ones. But running Facebook and Twitter will be more than sufficient. If this phone has the lower than $150 price, there would be chances for T6 PRO. And for this price, we can give it a 4.5 stars remark.

Axgio Continues Their Masterpiece on Neon N2Q

If the iPhone strikes your fancy but you can't quite justify the cost, perhaps the Axgio NeonN2Q will do the trick. After pre-announcing the device recently, Axgio is now finally telling interested customers when they can get it and how much it'll cost. The answers to those questions are September 25th and 'it depends.

Neon N2Q continues the style on N1, flat back cover is surrounded by the metal bezel, more compact and neat element vibe will instantly rush into your eyes when this handset on-hand. Axgio adopts OGS technology this time on the model, screen resolution is decreased, but better viewing angles provided. N2Q powered by the underclocking 8-Core MT6592M, main frequency is 1.4GHz, we may infer that this would be a nice solution to the problem that high power consumption on 8-Core phone. It still contains 1GB of RAM and 8GB of ROM, but upside is that OTG supported, for those who carries flash disk usually, OTG has been a necessary this days. Additionally, battery is also promoted to 2100mah, camera seems to remain the same. As the area of the speaker is larger, it provides much louder and clear voice calling

We must be impressed by the customized OS on Neon N1 for its abundant features and humane design, but this time Neon N2Q packs the stock Android 4.4, so in many aspects the interaction is much better, also the Neonado version will soon be available, whether it will support more system languages in the future upgrade? Let’s wait and see.

This time, Axgio prepare to rage a storm again with its new phone - N2Q, which is the cheapest Octa-core phone, you can not find another Octa-core phone under $120 beside N2Q, so there is no doubt that N2Q is a cost-effective choice. 

What's more, our TinyDeal have got some pictures and specs info about N2Q in advance, and now I will show you these details. 

The follow pictures are N2Q, you can see that the appearance is more beautiful, and the fuselage is ultra thin, I think it shows a higher quality than W2 and N1.

MIJUE M690+ - A clone version of iPhone 6

Mijue is a Chinese brand that famous for its former M680 phone, today they are plan to launch the next generation model M690+, aka M690 Plus..

Mijue M690+ seems to be the most cost-effective budget phone if we look to its specifications, powered by the MTK6592 8-core processor by Mediatek which is clocked at 1.7Ghz. In addition to that there is 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal memory of which you can extend it up to 64GB by SD Card., while most phones supports only 32GB. With those specs in combination with the 5” IPS HD 1280x720 pixels resolution screen the phone is reaching quite a good performance. What amazing is that price of M690+ is only about $130, so it may be a pretty nice budget Android smartphone within this price range.

  

The front of the phone is well-designed, and has a frontier modern edge like Apple products this year. On top we can see the status LED, front camera located on the center. Below the screen there are one gorgeous home key which is decorated as silver, as well as two menu keys which are only visible when using and lit up as ultramarine blue. The phone is doing what it is supposed to do very good and is fun to use for a clone device.

Latest Android 4.4 runs on the device, it features a 8MP back camera with dual flash, and the imitated features (like the smart gesture) of the original phone are nice, even though most will probably never use them but kindly helpful once emergent. Plus, the battery is surprisingly good. We believe that Mijue M690+ could bring us more surprise if on-hand later.
