    What’s the difference between MT6582 (this) and MT6589T (Xiaomi Hongmi)? In other words which phone is the best (Xioami or other MT6589T) or these phones ?

      FAEA F1 because it’s real and Xiaomi Hongmi because it partially real although very difficult to get

      I don’t get these lists and news all about phones which MAYBE one day will arrive but more likely will never really appear in market, what about informing about phones which are ON SALE or are going ON SALE in matter of days, everything else is just noise and waste of time of naive readers who still trust Chinese companies and their PR departments announcing always big plans and just NOT DELIVERING

    Anyone who wants to buy these phones, my advice is stay away from export sellers but instead buy from Taobao through an agent. Prices are much better and you are far less likely to get scammed since the Chinese are VERY fussy buyers and they buy in a far greater quantity so there is a lot more feedback regarding the seller and product.

    MyPhone Rio 2 was launched here in the Philippines. It sports an MT6582 too. I posted it on Gadget Pilipinas. I would love to know its OEM though. https://www.gadgetpilipinas.net/2015/03/myphone-rio-2-unboxing-and-first-impressions-w-video/
