Honorable mention: JiaYu G3
If you have been waiting for the JiaYu G3 this long I imagine you will want to wait a little longer as this Chinese phone offers similar specs as above but with a dual-core CPU and much lower 899 ($140) price tag!
Which Chinese Android phone will you choose?
Chinese phones have come on leaps and bounds over the past year and we are going to see some amazingly designed and extremely powerful devices arrive from China in the next 12 months.
It’s a hard choice but from the details above and if they we’re on sale now, which top Chinese quad-core phone would you choose?

I prefer still waiting the JY-G3 jejeje
If they ever launch and are available in so that everyone can buy them rather than preorder or whoever manages to get one first.
The thing with the Iphone is that Apple kinda makes it easy to get one too.
Hi Andi
Can I request a blog about the best Chinese phones CURRENTLY Available? It might be something you update every month.
I like what you are doing with upcoming tech, but the fact is that there is always something newer, faster, better around the corner. Like many people, I need to buy a phone now (old iPhone died and iPhone 5 really doesn’t impress me). So I’ve been following your blog for about two months and I keep learning about the next hot thing but never about the hottest thing I can buy right now…
Thanks
Simon
Really keen for the M2 – as MIUI is such a great ROM.
Wondering if it will work on LTE though.
@Simon. Couldn’t agree more – perhaps there should be separate sections for goods that are available (with proper reviews and where-to-buy guides) and for up-and-coming shiny.
Simon, ill secound that! Any link to a buyers guide would be appreciated too!
really waiting for the Oppo Find 5 😛
You know what would I love andy? a comparison of these chinese smartphones against some mid range smartphone, particularly those using novathor U8500: xperia P, galaxy S advance, I’m sure the MT 6775 can stand agains them, and costing almost half the price!
I will buy a phone when I am on business trip in china. Now I have heart there are maybe problems with the Androis update for other languages. Moreover the google app store is not supported by the phone, only a chinese store. Is this right?
Andi, 360.63 ppi is for Goophone i5 based on the screen size and resolution.
It is really amazing to know how people curiosity for a new phone can be exploited by traders. From ur note i see the price of oppo Find5 to b in the range
od 450to500$. I saw the price from a online trader for the same at 1000$.
Can the manufacturer ensure that before they release the phonr, they
have enough of inventory with them
waiting for oppo 5
Nice Phone….when can we get in India….and how much price
really waiting for the Oppo Find 5 …… in India….
I’ve found 2 types of Oppo Find 5. Can anyone tell me, which is the _real_ one: the rounded or the other one?
I guess the ones we have seen are just mock ups or prototypes, however if Oppo follow their current style I’d guess the straight edge one.
Thank you! I liked the rounded one, but I will very satisfied if I’ll get one. 😉
