Gorilla glass is the real deal as shown in this short youtube video. While fans wait in anticipation, JiaYu is hard at work getting their licensing agreements finished up with China authorities. Pass some time and watch razor blades scratch across this LCD protection seemingly to no affect. (more…)

mtk mt6577 UMi X reaches nearly 60k pre-orders in the first day!
This slick phone has sold nearly 60,000 on the first day. I’m still on the fence on this one, as camera and LCD quality remain to be seen. One must guess that it will be on par, or nearly on par with the JiaYu g3, but there’s no telling for sure yet. (more…)

Just as the JiaYu is about to come out with their new g3, the UMi X comes along and steals some thunder.

JiaYu G3 dual-core mtk6577 vs JiaYu G2 mtk6577 comparison and pictures
Both great looking phones, but I think I’ll take the JiaYu g3 if given the choice. Now, what’s great is that they BOTH have 1gb RAM and the mtk mt6577 / mtk6577. So performance wise there shouldn’t be much of a difference. JiaYu has a significantly better screen, and it’s larger as well. (more…)

So you will be able to purchase the JiaYu g3 officially on September 5th, but there seems a slight hitch. We can’t 100% confirm this, but it LOOKS like the accessories will be purchased in addition to the phone. The prices listed are: (more…)

JiaYu G3 mtk6577 Dual-core, Dual-sim 1gb RAM, ICS China phone almost released!
What’s not to love? Well, the wait time for the JiaYu G3 to actually be released is one thing not to love. It seems like it’s just one thing after another. From the issues with getting the proper licensing in China, to problems with the camera and LCD quality.
Though perhaps we should be glad. Much better for them to get things right than to release a shoddy product, wouldn’t you say? Well, let’s get on with the specs: (more…)

Zopo zp300+ Dual-Core Dual-Sim China phone with mtk6577 released
Just the last month or so, phones with the mtk mt6577 / mtk6577 dual-core CPU have started to be released. Zopo looked like they were a bit behind the curve because their new smartphones had the older gen mtk6755. Which still is a fine CPU, but with the MTK MT6589 / MTK6589 quad-core right around the corner, you don’t want to look decidedly low tech with your single core CPU do you?
Well, Zopo is well aware and made the changes to suit. Their zp300 has a been upgraded to zp300+ with mtk mt6577 / mtk6577 dual-core. Excellent news for the consumer!
