The first MT6752, 3GB RAM phone goes on presale today to international phone users. The iOcean MT6752 Rock is on presale now from $199.99.
There has been a lot of concern surrounding the price of the iOcean MT6752 Rock and other MT6752, 3GB RAM equipped Chinese smartphones. The worry being that international prices, plus shipping and other costs would push pricing through the roof.
iOcean has got themselves out of the gates first and managed to begin presales of their iOcean MT6752 Rock phone through reseller partners who will distribute the phone worldwide. iOcean have set the regular retail price of the MT6752 at $229.99, but customer who order early will benefit from a lower price. According to the details the first 300 phones will cost $199.99, the following 100 for $209.99 and the final offer price of $219.99 will also be limited to 100 units.
iOcean MT6752 Rock Specifications
Gizchina News of the week
Specifications for the iOcean MT6752 Rock include a 5.5-inch 1920 x 1080 display, octacore 64bit MT6752 chipset, 3GB RAM, dual SIM 4G LTE, dual WIFI, 14 mega-pixel main camera, fast charger dual speakers and thin 8.2mm body. The rest of the specs can be seen below:
[table id=193 /]Looking over the specifications the only areas of concern for us are the 2300mAh battery and 16GB of internal memory. The small battery might possibly be ok to live with thanks to the added function of a fast charger and hopefully a well optimised ROM will ensure a useable battery life. Internal memory is low at 16GB, but at least there is room for an SD card (although 128GB support would have been nice).
What remains to be seen is just how well the iOcean MT6752 Rock performs in our upcoming review, and also how JiaYu and Elephone will respond with their rival devices.
What do you think of the iOcean MT6752 Rock? How’s the specification and what do you think of the international price?

Well,that was misleading, 200$ would have made it interesting but at 230$ i wouldn’t have clicked to see the article.
“from $199.99”
I bet those 500 units have been given before anyone gets a chance to buy one. I’ve considered Meizu expensive at 249$ and I have no doubts that it’s a well made phone, I don’t know anything about iOcean but I don’t think they can match the quality of Meizu so yes, 229 seems expensive, especially considering that battery. 199$ seems more realistic
199R$ it’s a pretty good proice for a FHD phone with 3GB of Ram. But the two things who made this iOcean not interesting for me, is battery, 2300mAh it’s a joke, the nexus 5 have the same capacity and suffers with 5inch, iOcean has 5.5″. And the second is, the design isn’t bad at all, but iOcean has made really gorgeous phones before, why this one is so generic? Jiayu S3 on the go.
I’m the same. I love my Iocean X7, but I think that 2000 Mah wasn’t enough power. I would wait for some kind of Iocean X8 Pro, like they did last year.
Yeah, If they keep the really good and premium design of X7 and X8, would be a complete different story, this one looks cheap.
Yea I have a 5 inch phone with a 720p screen and a 2300 and it last me about 8-10 hours with normal use and maybe 5-6 with heavy use. Can only imagine how bad 5.5 1080 would be.
what about led notification light? The specifications never mentions it…also some sites says Jiayu S3 has led notification, some says not…
Jiayu has.
a nother Led cost less then 3 cent, very low battery for 5.5′ screen, what about GPS Glonass.
too expensive 🙁
for 3GB ram , thats ALMOST a reasonable price ….
yes, unbeatable~
An octa-core soc with only A53 cores? I would prefer a quad-core with A57 cores.
Still waiting on the Elephone P7000 and JiaYu S3.
Offer price not good. Too long a wait and already sites show special price not available. I’d rather have a better phone with no wait even if it means I don’t get it the first month it is released. I don’t like paying money before a phone is released. No guaranty when or if it will be released.
Not a fan of the design. From the side and back it looks alright but the way the front bulges out is hideous looking to me.
Specially when you check the previous models design, X7 or X8 series.
I don´t like the capacitive butons at botton of the screeen and the botton bezel without…
