MTK mt6588 Specs and Key Points and MTK CPU Comparison Graph (part 3)

Okay, so now that we’ve discussed the ability of the MTK6588 camera being able to handle 13mp photos, let’s get on with the MTK MT6589 / MTK6589’s 1080p video support.  At the bottom of this post there’s a graph comparing the various recent and upcoming CPUs from MTK.

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • MTK 6588 will support 1080p video recording and decoding:  Now this is great.  Simply amazing that about a year ago, MTK’s 6516 with 416mhz CPU was their top of the line!  It was first generation of full Android compatibility, and now we’re already looking at the 4th gen coming out with the ability to encode 1080p.  Though of course, the LCD’s won’t be 1080p (Or will they? See point 3 in part 4 of this mini-series),  you’ll still be able to playback 1080p television and computer monitors.  Youtube now supports video uploads of 4k (1080p x 4).

Some phones like the Zopo zp200 are even starting to come with HDMI out, so you’d be able to directly output your 1080p phone movies from MTK MT6589 / MTK6589 phones with this feature.

The downside? BIG files.  Our puny 32 and 64Gb SD’s can only hold so much.

More to come tomorrow in part 4, where I’ll discuss the final 2 points about MTK MT6589 / MTK6589:

  • MTK MT6589 / MTK6589 will officially support 720p 1280×800 display.
  • MTK MT6589 / MTK6589 will have the SGX 544 GPU!

    If MT6577 officially supports only qHD display, how come Jiayu G3 and Zopo ZP300+ managed to have a 1280 x 720 pixels HD screen?

      It’s a good question. I’m going to partially address this in part 4 of the mtk mt6588 article later tonight.

    Also noticed, Lack of Google AdSense ads. So still waiting for great Google’s approval on AdSense account? Or have planned something else. :)

      Hey Max, currently the money I’d generate from AdSense wouldn’t be worth it for me to “dirty” the website. In the future, it might be a possibility. I’m keeping all options open :)

    Ha-Ha very valid point. AdSense ads indeed make site look dirty. :) On a side note. I would like you to enlist some good MTK 6577 / 1GB phones which got large batteries.

    I mean how come only Motorola MAXX can be the only Battery King. I’m sure some Chinese phones must be there to take the crown. Also you can choose one feature a week and start a series of post’s enlisting them.

    Example:
    The best battery phones
    The best screen phones
    The best performance phones
    The best camera phones

    To make it more interesting you can also choose a Benchmark standard to compare these Chinese phones with that phone.

    Example:
    The best battery phone can be Benchmarked against Motorola MAXX
    The best screen phone can be Benchmarked against iPhone or maybe Samsung galaxy SIII
    The best performance can be against Samsung galaxy Note
    The best camera performance against NOKIA proview

    I mean I’ve just gave examples, not necessarily means they’ve to be the same phones.
    Hope i could able to put my point across. Looking forward to something like that.
