Totempo-sun are another Chinese phone manufacturer who are hoping to take on the world with their monster6 inch phablet, but judging by some of the spec’s I can’t see why you would want it!
There is the old saying, which many people seem to agree with, which is ‘bigger is better’ and I can see that it does make sense in certain situations such as mobile phonescreens.
I much prefer the larger screen on the Zopo ZP900 Leader than the 3.5 inchscreen on my iPhone as it gives me more space to work and the resolution is good, but having a monsterscreen with poor resolution seems like a waste to me.
Totempo’s new6 inchphablet falls at the first hurdle for me as it’s resolution is only 480 x 800, which is a shame as most of the other components look good for the price.
Prices will start at 1399 Yuan this month for a limited time only and will increase to 1999 Yuan after the first batch is sold out, for that you get a dual-core MT6577 CPU clocked at 1.5ghz , 1GB RAM (512mb available too), an 8 mega-pixel rear camera and a large 3200 mah battery.
What do you guy’s think of these low res 6 inch phones?
Good morning,
I am concerned about the trend in 6 inch ‘phablet’ devices.
For my money, a ‘given’ must be that the screen resolution will need to be at least as good as the SGNOTE2 device.
I’m waiting to see if any of Chinese manufacturers or distributors can persuade at least a couple of UK channel players to put their 6 inch devices into the market.
But … I do not think that will happen until their screen resolutions improve; and their rear cameras settle at ‘at least 8MP’.
@Millgate these screens are terrible! I don’t see why they don’t make decent 5 inch phones with better resolution for the same money…
