Wow. Christmas really can come early. According to the latest news, the MTK MT6589 / MTK6589 will be officially released on December 11th. Whether that means we’ll actually see a quad-core MediaTek smartphone released inside 2012 and whether said phones will be available outside of China before 2012 closes remains to be seen.
Regardless of whether or not a smartphone with MTK MT6589 / MTK6589 is available to those outside of China, actually getting one in our hands before 2012 closes is a good bet not. Still, it’s fun to think about isn’t it? Sub-$200 quad core smartphones with the GPU power to run circles around the latest and near future’s 3D-games, 28nm architecture for better battery life? GizBeat is all over it.
