Though there is no official date set, the news is that the g2 is scheduled to be released next week. The specs look very good on the new JaiYu g2.
They’ve upgraded the camera to 8mp and the memory up to 1gb. This is excellent news, as part of what’s holding some of the current mtk mt6577 / mtk6577 offerings back from being a great buy is their inclusion of 512mb instead of 1gb. The LCD is IPS, and while I’d prefer 960×540, there’s nothing wrong with 800×480 IMO. They’ve included a juicy little battery at 2050mA.
This phone, assuming it’s actually released, is near the top of the Giz list. If you don’t mind the slightly low resolution .3mp of the front camera and 800×480, I think this is one hard phone to beat at it’s list price in the $170 shipped range.
