iOcean X8 will only be available for the international market!


iocean x8 hero

Fed up with seeing cool phones launched but only available in China? Soon Chinese customers will know how it feel now that the iOcean X8 will only be available to customers outside of China!

The iOcean X8 is the iOcean phone that we have been itching to get our hands on. It isn’t the first octacore phone from the iOcean stable, but is easily the most desirable thanks to an all new alloy and glass construction, octacore processor and 2GB RAM.

Gizchina News of the week


What is interesting is that iOcean have told us that the phone will only go on sale to customers outside of China, they have yet to give us pricing and launch details just yet though. What we do know is that iOcean will be sending out just 10 review iOcean X8 phones, and we will be one of the first to receive one! Keep your eye’s peeled for the iOcean X8 review coming soon!

        It’s neither refurbished nor republished but it’s a used device and you know the price of used device is totally different from new one… 🙂

          yup, usually about 10% more… 😉

            hope that this time will be 15% less 😀

              The price we will not know, as it will be available only for international buyers. Usually the sellers add a lot to the Chinese price.

            Why more? It should be 10% less.

        • March 27, 2014

          haha, I will ask iOcean what I am allowed to do with it 😉

            Just a thought have it sent to a overseas country where it can have a long term test done. But the way phones are appearing now the long term might end up very short indeed.

            Thanks Andi… You know I am waiting for this device since long time. Hope it is out soon. But in the meantime, I bought Coolpad 9976A. Which is a fantastic device but is bigger for everyday use… 🙂 🙂

            Promotion both iocean octacores. It has been a whole since you had a giveaway. Maybe even throw in the N1? haha

    While I like the idea, will it actually work? I mean, their main market is in China. It would be smarter for them to just release a bunch for China and another bunch for the international market on the same date, no? It’s still an interesting approach, and I’d like to see the results. Good luck iOcean!

      Most likely they are selling more to international customers than at home.

    This might be my choice over the Find 7. Decent price for the specs, if all holds true.

    Nice. Now how about that G7 review? 🙂

    • March 27, 2014

      Sorry I put it on hold due to the Find 7, I will get on it now, and should have it done before the X8 arrives.

    • March 27, 2014
