snapdragon performance sucks especially SD 410 .. only snapdragon 610 and 615 are good but you won't find them under 18-20k ( excluding low profit models like xiaomi and mmx yu )

i think intel's new atom chip for mobiles weren't ready yet.. most bay trail chips are for tablets

i don't think mediatek is a wrong choice .. they fixed their gps issues last year.. and they are becoming more open now , they released source code and released kitkat for all of their old chips like 6589 , 6589t and all android one devices .. they are still not at the same level of snapdragon yet

but expect more development in 2015 as mediatek is expanding to USA

htc has already released 5-6 devices with mediatek
sony will launch 5-6 devices with mediatek this year starting with xperia e4
asus is also in the club now ..

HTC Hima Ace and some Hima Ultra variants expected be powered by MediaTek processors

since asus is updating older zenfones to lollipop , its most likely that the newer phones will be updated to android 5.1 as well , as 5.1 will launch pretty early this year ( most likely at google I/o in june..

mediatek may not be good for people who want to tinker and install roms .. but i think its pretty great for average users from tier 1 and 2 OEMs ( more performance + OS update( asus ) + brand and ASS reliability + cheap price ) ...

for those who like to play with ROMs if you can , wait for redmi Note 2 ( has same specs as MMx YUreka with bigger battery ) but launch can take anywhere from 1-4 months
else right now micromax yureka is the only option ..

i agree with many of your points ,G3 stylus and Redmi Note etc are exceptions but most other mediatek based phones have optimisation issues,poor battery performance,app imcompatiblity(an issue with intel as well),poor dev support
i dont own a SD410 phone yet and most of my devices are SD800 or S4/S4 pro atm so I cant say much for SD4xx vs Mediatek but I feel Mediatek still has issues to be fixed in the low/mid range

app incompatibility ? i haven't heard about this problem , i tried to google it but couldn't find much .. mediatek runs on arm cores so there shouldn't be any problem , while atom is intel's so thats why they have it .. can you give a link to this problem ? would like to read about it
as far as i have read android one phones are optimized very well and have no lag .. so then it means its not the chip's fault , rather its poor coding from local developers

i have used my brother's xperia c for quite sometime.. while the phone had its own share of problems like bad display,no update, or development etc but as far as battery backup and optimization i did not face any issue ..


i think these local oems just put poorly optimized roms on cheap phones.. i don't think mediatek based devices from sony or asus will be bad in anything apart from rom development ... lets see..

Do you have reliable source of this information or it is just a speculation ?

As far as MTK is concerned, it is cheap but it has problems with source codes and very little developer support.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 phablet will be powered by Snapdragon 615 - GSMArena.com news and
Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 with 64bit OctaCore Snapdragon 615 processor Announced ~ Android Era are rumors. It's not reliable information. Redmi Note 1 has two models, one is on MTK SoC and another one on SD. But there is no official information out if Redmi Note 2 going for 2 models or only one model and other detals. The article itself says
According to rumours, the amount of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 will be CNY 1,500 (approx. Rs 15,200 ...
. There was also rumor few days back that it is coming with 20MP camera. Xiaomi Redmi Note successor might feature a 20.7MP camera So three is no guarantee that this information is true. It may be or may not be. Hope it comes with same specs as Yureka and big battery with price near 9 TO 12K.

looks like you are pretty new to mobile scene..

companies don't announce phones until they already have started manufacturing quite a few units and are approaching market launch..

there is a difference between a rumour and leaked specs/benchmarks... and then if you are updated with all the latest developments in mobile world, you can easily spot which 1 is fake and which might be real..

the telecomtalk rumour you have given cries out loud its fake and made up by some fanboy.. first its not even a decent leak , its coming from a forum member

1) 3gb ram lol .. even mi4 in india is expected to come with 2gb version to keep prices low
2) 20mp camera when mi4 itself has 13 mp
3) mediatek 6795 isn't even ready yet .. only 6752 is available right now ..
4) and then lol at different internal memory versions .. this is a mid ranger not a high end phone ( in xiaomi lineup) that will come with these many internal memory options..

and the line that you have quoted

According to rumours, the amount of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 will be CNY 1,500 (approx. Rs 15,200 ...

is about the price and not the specs..

they won't use sd 410 in redmi note 2 because redmi 1s 2 is using it.. the only reason they rolled out sd 400 version of redmi note was because it was the only chip that had 4g lte, so they had to settle with SD 400 for 4g .. whereas all the 10 series and mediatek 67 series are 4g capable now

Snapdragon 615 + 2gb ram is a standard configuration in china now for around similar price , see the phones launched- Coolpad F2 ,Archos 50 Diamond,
expect a lot of chinese manufacturers to come up with these config..

regarding other specs .. they are same as redmi note 1.. only diff is chipset

95% of the time these leaks turns out right .. they might launch the mediatek version later either 6752 or 6795 ( may be )

but sd 615 version is almost a certainty .. anyways it will either get announced at ces or mwc..

the price will also be around 10k as well..

and redmi 2s is 100 % confirmed with these specs. it has even made rounds in antutu and tenna

4.7 720p
sd 410
1gb ram
2mp/8mp

- - - Updated - - -

I hope Moto makes a SD6xx phone at that price range,thatll be a real deal breaker overall

its highly unlikely under 14k price tag , they didn't even use SD 410 when they should have , let alone SD 6xx.. the moto G ( 2013) was made under google , now its under lenovo.. and then they just rolled out moto g 2014 3 months ago so the next major version is still 6-7 months away at least.. this is time for upgraded Moto E ..

CM made huge mistake. Just imagine quality of CM fans vs. quality of MMX fans. Visit YU forums and experiance youself.... *forums.yuplaygod.com/threads/yu-on-the-go.11/ - They don't know Tapatalk Ok they don't even know how to use GOOGLE SEARCH!
*forums.yuplaygod.com/threads/yu-exclusively-on-amazon.484/ - Typical *send me link* guy


How these people are gonna use CM11s?

Phone is poorly designed(OK! Rebranded) still it will sell like hot cakes because SPECS. I think we have to wait for reviews.

:rofl: :lol: they be gonna complain like this isnt android xP

IMO Yu Yureka>> Redmi Note, 1s.
Xiaomi should release a stock android phone without MIUI overlay. that'll save some of their $$$ in design dept.

Well I don't have time read essays and reply you. Only thing I would like to reply is

looks like you are pretty new to mobile scene..
because this is only thing I read properly, rest I just overlooked.
What is mobile scene? Did I hear it first time?

FYI Those are rumors/speculation based on unreliable information. You are trying to create some logic out of speculations. I asked you do you have reliable information, you again trying to convince me how spculations are correct. Speculations are speculations. By the way you made me laugh.

had you been a regular follower of mobile related news,leaks,updates and latest developments.. you would have known that most of the times these turn out right..
almost all phones today leak out before its launch.. plus its easy to make a calculated guess ,what specs successor might have because of the available official data regarding SOC,previous models , competitor products and market know how .. leaks just confirm those calculated guesses ..

anyways no point in discussing with you since you aren't a regular follower .. you want official info wait for CES and MWC

i wasn't trying to prove you anything .. you asked reliable source for those specs list so i gave you , i assumed you would already know that there hasn't been any official announcement from xiaomi yet .. now you don't count any leaked info as reliable ... well that's your call.. maybe i misunderstood that you wanted 'official information" with "reliable source for the leak" , so apologies for that .. what i was trying to tell you was that these leaks turn out pretty accurate.. you can trust them with a good level of confidence.. that's all.. so wait for CES and MWC for official announcement

Re: Xiaomi Killer -- Micromax Yu discussion thread !!

Don't apologize friend. It is just a debate / discussion and we can have difference of opinions.

Anyway the confidence with which you said,
... redmi Note 2 ( has same specs as MMx YUreka with bigger battery ) but launch can take anywhere from 1-4 months

It made me curious to ask if you have reliable source of information. Leaks need not be accurate. Ofcourse that is my opinion. You need not agree with it. For your information, I follow Xiaomi very closely since they released MI3 and I post only those links which I know are relaible. I just don't follow their phones, but I also follow their business strategy. I also know Lei Jun CEO of Xiaomi works 100 hours a week.

Re: Xiaomi Killer -- Micromax Yu discussion thread !!

Meizu has just upped the ante by releasing note phone with fhd screen, mtk 6752 and superb specs for 160$ and its pretty clear these guys are squarely aiming at Xiaomi
Looking forward to what Xiaomi is gonna do to trump em
We might actually start seeing fhd screens under 10k now. :p

yeah decent specs and design except for the MTK soc,mtk usually have very poor dev support and no roms etc,also UI/rom preloaded on phone must be proper(stock android) for it to be a great buy
I hope we see sd6xx under 10k thanks to yureka's example
