    Zopo have one seriously disturbing habit. OVERPRICING…..and that will be their downfall. For God’s sake Huawei Oppo and Vivo have the quality. Zopo has no bragging rights whatsoever.

    “coming soon”… And we’ve been waiting for 5 months the speed 8 after its official launch, which was supposed to arrive to customers “soon” too… They should have added a side note saying “be wary that our meaning for “soon” may vary from yours and it could be eventually expressed in geological eras”

      I had a sale (Speed 8) for them too via a friend, and had to pull out due to the delays.

      Now the Speed 8 may need a big discount as it’s looking a little stale in the market place.

          6 inch 1080p AMOLED won’t look great ,PenTile is no fun at low pixel density.Ofc if you are ok with it, that’s fine.
          We’ll see how they price it, they are very aggressive with the f4 and N4 so maybe this one is super cheap but big screens usually have a big premium. I am curious to see if it will be the cheapest phone with SD820 or if they go 2500CNY.

          I like the other one better , same specs as the N4 just metal back and huge battery so maybe it is as great value as the N4. The N4 is still my fav though as i don’t need the big battery and would charge the device every day anyway.Plus i am way bored of this kind of metal back.

          Btw i’m trying to figure out how the N4 does in gaming and so far i found a few Gamebench results in reviews from China.
          Real Racing 3 at 36FPS during a 16 mins gameplay, Subway Surfer 59 FPS 15.5mins , King of Glory 27 FPS 15.5 min – this one is capped at 30 FPS, NBA2k? (don’t know if 2k15 or 2k16) 42FPS, Plants vs Zombies 2 at 60FPS 20 mins.
          Real Racing 3 and NBA2k16 are killers for SD820 for some reason. Anyway, few results so far but all are acceptable.

            real good.

            whats penTile ?

              In phones with PenTile they 2 use subpixels to make a pixel instead of 3 and Super AMOLED is using PenTile.
              A RGB screen has 3 subpixels in a pixel , red, green and blue. Pentile has BG or RG pixels so they fake it out of just 2 subpixels. With OLED the subpizels are also very small compared to LCD so a lot of the display area is just empty and that’s why at low pixel density it looks grainy.
              Will edit in a few mins to add a bit more.
