When we think of low-cost, high-end Chinese phones we tend to think of Xiaomi, but from next week the Beijing based company will have a new, Snapdragon 600 rival to contend with.
A Shenzhen based phone start-up have announced that they plan to launch their first Android smartphone next month. A newphone brand from China is nothing new, but the pricing and hardware they are touting is pretty amazing.
Like Xiaomi’s M2S (16GB) this newphone will be priced at 1999 Yuan ($320), but will feature a larger 5-inch, 1080 HD display, along with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 CPU and 2GB RAM. The Shenzhenphone will also get a 13 mega-pixel rear camera (the 16GB Xiaomi has an 8 mega-pixel shooter), 5 mega-pixel front and will run Android 4.2 Jelly Bean.
