Xiaomi In-Ear Headphones Basic for RM25
If you think that the Xiaomi Pistons Earphones were not already cheap enough- check out the Xiaomi In-Ear Headphones Basic. Xiaomi will start the Sales for the Xiaomi In-Ear Headphones Basic tomorrow in Malaysia – and they cost less then 10 USD.
This edition of the very popular Xiaomi Piston Earphones is tailored to bring the same experience as the Pistons at only half of the cost. The Xiaomi In-Ear Headphones Basic will sell tomorrow for only RM25, or USD 7.82. This is a Price In malaysia that is exactly half of the Price of the Xiaomi Pistons, that are Kevlar protected. These Earphones come without the Kevlar Protection though, which is understandable at this Price Level.
These Earphones will sport the same in-line module that we also see on the Xiaomi Pistons Earphones. One difference to the Xiaomi Pistons is the lack of the gold plating on the 3.5mm connector, again easily understandable at this price level.
Xiaomi Flash Sales will start tomorrow with 10.000 Xiaomi Redmi Note, 5000 Redmi 1S, 2000 Mi4 and the Xiaomi In-Ear Headphones Basic. If you are in Malaysia these earphones might well be worth buying, if only for sports or as a second pair.
What do think of these Xiaomi In-Ear Headphones Basic? Will you buy a pair?
IUNI U3 Phone – 2K 5.5″, 3GB, Dual Sim Beast
Finally the IUNI U3 Smartphone has been released to the eager public in China. And we hear the first batches of the IUNI U3 Smartphone are already sold.
IUNI is a relatively young chinese smartphone company and the IUNI U3 is just the second smartphone of the company. The IUNI U3 is like its predecessor high in specs and low in price – exactly what we like. The IUNI U3 is launched at a price point of 1999 YUAN, around 320 USD(1099RM) and targeted at the same price level as Xiaomi Mi4 and OnePlus One. In comparison to those two the IUNI U3 is far more attractive though.
The IUNI U3 comes with 5.5 inch screen with a very impressive 2K resolution. Despite of the big 5.5″ screen the phone is still very compact, and has a slime and short case. Compared to its competitor the OnePLus One the IUNI U3 is just a bit thicker, but more compact and only very slightly larger then the MEIZU MX4.
IUNI U3 Specs vs Xiaomi MI4 vs OnePLus One
For 320 USD the IUNI U3 Phone sports also a QualComm Snapdragon 801 clocked at, 3GB of RAM, LTE and on top you get Dual Sim Support. The IUNI OS has recently become English Support as well, so probably IUNI will launch internationally soon.
The Main Camera on the IUNI U3 is a 13MP Sony Camera with optical image stabilization. The Selfie Camera is the same as on the HTC ONE (M7), with a 4MP Ultrapixel solution, for best Selfie Shots.
If you plan to buy the IUNI U3, please check the network frequencies and bands in your homecountry. The current version of the IUNI U3, similiar to the XiaomI MI4 is just designed to work on Chinese 4G LTE.
What do you think of the IUNI U3? 2.5Ghz Snapdragon 801, 3GB RAM, 2K Resolution on a 5.5 inch Screen and Dual Sim Support – BEAST! Would you buy it?
Meizu MX4 Phone has already 7.7 Million Pre-Orders
Meizu’s newest flagship, the Meizu MX4 seems to get a lot of popularity worldwide. We say worldwide because Meizu is the only company that launches its flagship smartphone not only in China, but directly to a global audience. That is a very welcome change from Meizu to what we have seen from other chinese manufacturers so far.
Meizu says they have got 7.7 Million preorders for the new Meizu phone, that was launched 10 days ago. The Meizu MX4 was worldwide the first smartphone to be powered by Octa Core Mediatek’s MT6595 CPU. It also comes with an impressive 20.7 Sony Rear Camera, the same we see on the much more expensive Sony Xperia 2. Combine that with 2GB of RAM and beautiful Design and you get a Hotseller – apparently.
MeizuMX4 vs iPhone6
Meizu told recently also that the Meizu MX4 would ship worldwide for 449USD including Tax and shipping costs for the 16GB Version. Buying directly from Manufacturer has the advantage that customers get warranty issues resolved quickly and can be sure to buy original quality. For those of you who are a bit riskier you can order the Meizu MX4 on Aliexpress for less then the 449 Price, you need to check the shipping cost to your specific country though.
Check Meizu MX4 Hands On
The Announcement that the Meizu MX4 got 7.7 Million pre orders in 10 days was made by Bai Yongxiang on Weibo, the Twitter of China. Meizu also teased Xiaomi, saying Meizu will put the pressure on Xiaomi with Meizus quick worldwide expansion and the MX4 series.
Meizu is planning to launch officially in a lot of countries worldwide, while they have been formerly focusing on China mainly. It seems the success story of Xiaomi inspired them. In the end competition will always be good for us customers.
OnePlus One Attacks iPhone 6
Apple launched their new iPhone 6 Edition this week. Actually Apple launched two iPhone’s, the iPhone 6 with 4.7 inch and the iPhone 6 Plus with 5.5 inch Screen size. Immediately after the Launch a lot of Android Brands and Fans attacked Apple, saying that is 2014 and Apple is late to the Game. Now OnePlus One, they call themselves “FlagShip Killer” take their shot at attacking Apple. Heres How:
“Hey Apple, welcome to the “PLUS” family!”
If you have a look at Android Alternatives to the iPhone 6 you will quickly see that the LG G3 and the OnePLus One have the same display size as the OnePLus One, with 5.5 inches – a very good way to start a comparison.
The OnePLus One has been launched for some time now, but it still has not been able to cover the mass market, especially due to stock capacitys. It still feels like ONePLus is in the middle of rolling out the Phone with the whole invitation system and aggressive Marketing Campaigns. Meanwhile the iPHone 6 is launched officially and will start to ship in the coming weeks to customers. What a great timing for a Comparison between iPhone 6 and OnePLus One.
iPhone 6 Plus vs OnePlus One
We all have seen many of these comparison before, often direcly by OnePLus One. Usually we can see the OnePlus One vs one of the other Android Flagships, which the One was tailored to compete against. And normally we can see a lot of similiarities in Specs, comparing them each by each. This is naturally not surprising since the OnePLus One and a lot of other Android Flagships using the exact same components.
On the other hand Apple uses different hardware parts then most of their Android Competitors. We still have to wait to see the iPhone 6 in Hands on Action but, but normally Apple’s 64-bit architecture and iOS Optimization promises equal if not better performance then other Android smartphones with quadcore Processor and 2GB or 3GB of RAM. In short with Apple its hard to compare on Specs alone, and everybody who used an iPhone before knows that.
Lets check one factor that is very important in every Comparison, especially with the OnePLus One, the storage and Pricing Options.
iPhone 6 Plus vs OnePlus One Price
Apple will offer the iPhone 6 in Singapore with 16GB, 32GB and 128GG Editions. The OnePLus One is also available in a 64GB Version for 349USD.
So after all does OnePLus One has the right to welcome Apple to the “Plus” Game? What do you think which Phone is the Winner in our OnePLus One vs iPhone 6 Plus Comparison?
Meizu MX4 sells from 449USD for International Customers
Meizu MX4 International Prices
Meizu has announced the international Prices for their Meizu MX4 Smartphone, a main competitor to the Xiaomi Mi4. We were quite suprised about the international Pricing for the Meizu MX4. Read on and let us know what you think about the Meizu MX4 Prices.
Meizu MX4 Pricing
We were able to use a Promo Model of the Meizu MX4 since the launch, and the MX4 is definitely a very nice device with some impressive features. The 5.4 Display is very nice to use and the Octa Core MTK6595 CPU make the user experience very smooth and enjoyable, as well for Gaming. The 20.7 Sony Megapixel Camera is the same Camera as on the Sony Xperia 2 and delivers great pictures and Flyme 4.0 is one of the best Chinese OS we tried so far.
Meizu MX4 Antutu
Overall the Meizu MX4 is avery good smartphone and at only 1799 Yuan in China, 940 RM or 290USD is a very good deal for sure. Meizu has also opened international Sales for the Meizu MX4 last week, so how much is the international pricing going to be? Meizu gave us finally details to that question, since the customer that preordered the device are now able to pay for the MX4. Meizu is charging 449 USD for the international pricing.
If we compare this international Price with the Price in China, that is 150 USD more expensive. If you compare it though to what Resellers charge for the Xiaomi Mi4 or OnePLus One, it could have been even higher. Most of the additional cost is probably tax and logistics costs. Also if you buy directly from Meizumart.com, you will get official warranty and backups directly from Meizu. Still 150 USD is quite a high markup on the original Chinese Pricing and we will expect a few disappointed meizu mx fans who hoped for lower international Prices.
What do you think of the international Meizu MX4 Price? Would you buy this phone?
Apple Iphone 6 to launch in Singapore on 19th
Apple just unveiled the new iPhone 6 Series with 4.7 inch and 5.5 inch displays. The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus are very close to all the Leaks before.
The iPhone 6 version with 4.7 inch screen comes with a 1134 x 750 resolution. The iPhone 6 PLus finally gets the Full HD on an iPhone, which we did not see before on other iPhones. It seems that the iPhone 6 Plus functions like a speced down iPAd and not like a spec’d up iPhone 5s.
iPhone 6 vs Xiaomi Mi4
For Processing Power the iPhone 6, gets the next generation of Apple Manufactured Processors, the A8. The A8 processors are made in an 20nm manufacturing process and are a tad smaller then the A7 processor in the iPHone 5s. The A8 Processor is still a 64 Bit CPU and the Dual Core Processor is clocked at 2 Ghz.
Both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus come with a 8 megapixel iSight Camera, with the same resolution as in the iPhone 5s. It seems though that only the larger iPhone 6PLUS Camera comes with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS).
Both new Apple Phones are running on iOS 8. For those iPhone owners who dont want to get a new Iphone 6, Apple will rollout iOS 8 public version download on 17th September.
iOS 8 is what will keep the show running on both models. For those that aren’t interested in getting a new iPhone to get a taste of iOS 8, the public version of the firmware will start its rollout on 17th September. Pre-order for US folks will start 12th September, and shipping will commence 19th September.
Both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6Plus will launch in the selected countries on September 19th 2014. For Asia Pacific there will be only four countries under the chosen few for the first Launch Wave. Those countrieswill be Singapore, Australia, Hongkong and Japan.
In all those countries the PreOrders for both devices begin on September 12th. A bit surprising to us is,that the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus will not be launched in China Mainland first. For the iPhone 5s Launch Mainland China was included for the first wave of iPhone 5s. This is a good sign for grey importers from Hongkong, who will earn from hand carrying devices, without paying taxes and earning a Margin on those Sales.
Iphone 6 and Iphone 6 Plus Prices
- Singapore – iPhone 6 starts from S$988 while the iPhone 6 Plus begins at S$1,148. (2500 RM and 2900 RM)
- Australia – iPhone 6 starts from A$869 while the iPhone 6 Plus begins at A$999.
- Hong Kong – iPhone 6 starts from HK$5,588 while the iPhone 6 Plus begins at HK$6,388. (2305 Rm for Iphone 6 and 2640RM for Iphone 6Plus )
- Japan – iPhone 6 starts from JPY 67,800 while the iPhone 6 Plus begins at JPY 79,800.
What do you think about the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6PLus Launch? Will you be getting one?
Huawei Ascend P7 Sapphire Edition Launch
The Huawei Ascend P7 has launched already in May this year, but Huawei decided to give the Ascend P7 a very nice facelift with the Huawei Ascend P7 Sapphire Glas Edition.
Huawei decided to boost the Sales of the Huawei Ascend P7, and thas why the showed now the new device, instead of just the usual Glas Panel, it comes with Sapphire Glas. According to Android Central, Huawei CEO Richard YU demonstrated the Sapphire Glas live to his audience. He tried to scratch the display of the Huawei Ascend P7 Sapphire Edition with a knife – without any chance to even scratch the Sapphire Display.
The new Sapphire Glas its not the only change made to the Huawei Phone. Huawei also styled the edges of the device new. The edges of the device, come now with more rose gold finish, instead of the old original design. That gives the Ascend P7 a warmer design with the new gold colors – and it looks very stylish.
The Back of the Huawei Ascend P7 Sapphire also gets glass now with a glossy ceramic texture – which is more ergonomic as well. Those style updates should definitely attract more fashion conscious buyers, and if you are on of them the Huawei Device definitely looks great.
WE heard some rumors before about an updated Huawei Ascend P7, but just now Huawei made it official. We expect to the Sapphire Edition to only sell in limited numbers in China First, and the price is not yet announced.
Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Specs Comparison: Note 4 Beast
Samsung launched the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 on the IFA 2014 in Berlin. Additionally Samsung launched a new Version of the Galaxy Note Series, the Galaxy Note Edge. The Galaxy Note Edge comes with curved Edges.
The Galaxy Note 4 is relatively close in Design to the other Galaxy Note 3 Series. Samsung added a completely new metal frame to the Galaxy Note 4 to make it more premium, but kept the Faux Leather Look for the Back Cover.
We were really interested though how the Galaxy Note 4 Spes compare to the other Flagship Smartphones in the market. 2014 Samsung has very strong competition. On the Elite Level Samsung Galaxy Note competes with Apple iPhone 6 and also Sony Xperia Z Series. More importantly more Chinese Brands like Xiaomi and Huawei attacking from the lower Price End.
See our Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Specs Comparison
The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 comes with a 5.7 inch Quad HD display with a Super AMOLED Screen. This is the same QHD resolution as on the LG G3 but Samsung claims to have more then 20% more coloes in the RGB Range with the Note 4.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 comes with either Snapdragon 805 at 2.7 Ghz or Samsung’s Exynos Octa Core 1.9GHz + 1.3GHz octa-core CPU Variant, both come with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory. The Note 4 memory can be extended up with a 64GB micro sim card. The NOTE 4 supports LTE Cat 4 or LTE Cat 6.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 sports a 16MP Rear Camera with Smart OIS and a 3.7MP Selfie Camera. The Selfie Cam has new integrated modes, where you can capture more people with an 120 degress Selfie Mode on the Galaxy Note 4 Front Camera.
The Note 4 also sports an 3220 mAH battery, which is not much larger the the 3200 mAH battery on the Galaxy Note 3. 3220 mAH is not much battery life for such a big 5.7 inch QHD screen, so you better prepare to buy a Powerbank.
As you can see the Galaxy Note 4 is definitely the highest powered smartphone in terms of CPU and Screen. For the Rear Camera, the Sony Xperia Z3 has a better model inside with the 20.7 MP Shooter from Sony. In terms of Selfie Camera nearly all Flagships have a higher Spec one at least in terms of Megapixel.
The Real Deal is obviously the pricing for the Note 4. The Note 4 is expected to be released on 10.10.2014 and comes with a price of 799 Euro or 799 USD.
This seems to be even more expensive then the iPhone 6 and Xperia Z3 which both going to be priced around 650 USD. Overall it might be wise to think about hardly how to invest your money. Xiaomi Mi4 and OnePlus One are definitely high speced alternatives and recentlu Huawei launched the Ascend G7 Phablet.
What do you think of the Galaxy Note 4? Would you buy one? Do you like other models more?
Xiaomi Redmi 1S Mint Edition Launch
Xiaomi Redmi 1S Mint Edition Launch
The Xiaomi Redmi 1S is overall Xiaomi’s bestseller in terms of quantity up to today. In Indonesia and Philippines it was recently launched and sold out lightning fast. Even though the Xiaomi Redmi 1S is selling as hot cakes, it could definitely need a new Design Update. Xiaomi decided to launch the Xiaomi Redmi 1S with a Mint Green Color Edition now.
Momentarily the Xiaomi Redmi 1S is only selling with the darker colors and the red buttons available. The Xiaomi Redmi 1S manages to sell very good, especially because of the very attractive pricing for the specs it offers. Right now the Xiaomi Redmi 1S has the same design for more then a year now and is really more understated.
Still it is true that the current Xiaomi Redmi 1S design is not pleasing everybody, even with the Snapdragon 400 performance and the very attractive pricing. So soon we will see the Xiaomi Redmi 1S Mint Edition, or light green. Probably this Xiaomi Redmi 1S Mint is targeted mostly at female and more fashion concious buyers.
Apart from the color change the Xiaomi Redmi 1S Mint Specs stay the same, with Snapdragon 400 CPU, 1GB of Ram, 2000 mAh battery and 8Megapixel F2.0 Camera. The Xiaomi Redmi 1S is currently selling at around RM400 in Malaysia.
What do you think about the Xiaomi Redmi 1S Mint Color Edition? Is that just a Marketing Gimmick or could it really help to boost the Sales for the Xiaomi Redmi 1S?
Meizu MX4 Pro Specs leak: 4GB RAM BEAST
It looks like Meizu has another surprise prepared for its users. After the Meizu MX4 Launch last week, it seems that we will soon be seing the Meizu MX4 Pro Launch – with shocking specs!
From early 2014 we heard a lot of rumors, that Meizu will not only launch one smartphone, but four new phones this year. Last week we only saw the launch of the Meizu MX4. The Meizu MX4 is definitely a very intersting smartphone with 20.7 MP but because of its MTK Processor and 2GB of Ram it might not be tailored to be the Flagship Killer Nr1 2014. For the customer who want a real Beast – Meizu will launch the Meizu 4X Pro Phone Monster.
From the leaked Meizu MX4 Pro specs we can see that Meizu will leave the design unchanged. The Meizu MX4 Pro will come with extremeley improved hardware though. We can see that the Meizu MX4 Pro Screen will come with at 2K 2502 x 1536 resolution. The Phone will get impressive 4GB of RAM and instead of the Mediatek, Samsung will produce the new Meizu MX4 Pro CPU.
The 20.7 MP Sony Rear Cam on the Meizu MX4 Pro stays unchanged with F1.8 aperture. The Front or Selfie Cam will be changed though to an 13 Mega-pixel Cam with F.2.0 aperture – BOOM. Further we will have the choice of 16, 32, or 64 GB ROM as on the MX4 and it will have LTE support and Flyme 4.0 OS.
So far there are no news for the official launch of the MEIZU MX4 Pro but we hope it will be fast now after the big launch last week. The Meizu MX4 Pro will have strong competition with the iPHone 6 and Samsung Galaxy Note 4. But with Meizu’s current pricing strategy of 1099 RM for the MX4, we believe that the Meizu MX4 Pro has the chance to be a real FlagShip Killer! With this specs it can definitely compete with XiaomI MI4 and One PLus One…
What do you think of the Meizu MX4 Pro Launch? Would you consider buying this 4GB RAM Beast?
5 Best Designed Chinese Smartphones 2014
The Year 2014 has been really the Rise of Chinese Smartphones, especially in terms of specs and pricing. Today we will show you the most beaufiful smartphones though. Have a look and see if you have the same list. What do you think is the best looking Chinese Smartphone?
China is really on the rise this year for Flagship Smartphones! If Xiaomi, Huawei or Meizu, China brings us powerful, high end phones that come with quality and the right pricing. Incredibly fast China is also the place to be for the most stylish smartphones, with sleek designs and high quality materials and beautiful designs. This is our Top 5 List of the most beautiful this year!
UMi Zero Design
The UMI Zero has not been launched yet in China. We had the chance to see an Pre Production Model though. And frankly there should not be a list of hottest designes without the UMi Zero.
The UMi Zero cant compare with their previous models in terms of quality, specs and especially design!
Like we heard already in a lot of rumours, the UMi Zero is very slim. It feels like its definitely less then 6mm. The Sleekness of the phone is not the impressive part though. Its really the craftsmanship and quality and design that is so impressive. The Phone is from an beautiful designed alloy frame with two frames of Gorilla Glas on each site. For Specs we know already that it will get Dual Sim Support, 8 MP Selfie Cam and Super AMOLED display. The Rest of the Specs are Secret Now – But what a beauty the UMi Zero is.
iOcean X8 mini pro Design
The iOcean X8 mini pro comes also with an All Glass Desig, similiar to the UMi Zero. Compared to the UMi Zero the iOcean X8 mini pro is a real leightweight though, cause of a different alloy body. Personally I prefer a little bit more weight to my smartphones, but if you prefer light phones the iOcean phone is the way to go.
The iOcean X8 mini pro is also very sleek with 7.6 mm and is powered by Mediatek’s MT6592 processor. There is also a HD 5 inch display 720 and 2GB Ram included. The iOcean has only Single Sim though and the memory is extendable.
Huawei Ascend P7 Sapphire
A bit more expensive is the new Huawei Ascend P7 Sapphire Edition. The Huawei Ascend P7 Sapphire is actually very similiar in design to the P7 Edition. It comes with a beautiful alloy body and Dual Sim Support. Like the Name Says on the Huawei Ascend P7 Sapphire, you get a very beautiful Sapphire Glas panel. This should make the Huawei Ascend P7 Sapphire nearly impossible to Scratch and its real elegant too.
OPPO R1 Design
The OPPO R1 is very similiar to the iOcean X8 mini pro. With all Oppo you have to pay a bit more for the Branding though. The Oppo R1 has next to a stunning design, very high end audio performance and the same F2.0 8.0 Megapixel, that is used in the iPhone 5s. The OPPO R1 is also available with LTE and runs Oppo’s Colors as Operating System. The OS is not as beautiful as MIUI V6 or IOS but has some very cool features included.
OPPO’s R1 is similar in looks and feel to the iOCean X8 mini pro but comes at the added cost the brand name demands. For your extra hard earned cash you do get better audio performance and the main camera is the same 8 mega-pixel F2.0 unti as found in the iPhone 5S. The Oppo R1 runs Oppo’s ColorOS, which while ugly does have some wonderful features, and there is even a LTE version of the phone available.
Xiaomi MI4 Design
Yes this list would not be complete without the newly launched Xiaomi MI4. The Xiaomi MI4 has extremely sleek bezels and vibrant color screen. While the Back of the MI4 is from plastic, the high end alloy edges make give the Xiaomi Mi4 a very highend premium look. Overall the Xiaomi MI4 comes in design very close to Apple’s iPhone Series – and Apple is the King of Design. The Xiaomi Mi4 definitely cant be missed in this list.
What do you think of our Most Beautiful Chinese Smartphone List? Could you imagine yourself buying any of those? Do you have a different list in mind?
