Some breaking new from the Leagoo side today, because they just revealed they are working on some pretty non-budget for a change. And looks like with their new KIICAA series of phones, specifically with the KIICAA S8 they can claim the world’s first title utilizing the upcoming Mediatek MT6763 chipset.
From the only picture available it looks like the phone will be looking pretty much like the Samsung S8 and just like it it should be sporting the 18:9 aspect ratio. After all the name could be already a pretty strong hint towards the Samsung resemblance. From what we know so far the phone should be equipped with the aforementioned MT6763 chipset, 4GB/6GB RAM, 64GB/128GB ROM, 5.72-inch/5.99-inch display with 1440×720 pixel resolution. And looks like there is a dual camera with fingeprint scanner on the back too.

There will be also some derived versions KIICAA S8 Lite and S8 Premium, so probably some of the choices above will be tied to these models. The price for the model with highest specs shouldn’t allegedly exceed the $300 mark and the phones should enter the market roughly in 2 months. Looking forward to that.
It’s a chip that is coming late Q3 with 8xA53 cores clocked upto 2GHz with double memory bandwidth built on the 16nm node with the same ISP as the helio X30. The GPU is supposedly the mali G71 mp2 clocked at 700MHz.
There is also a turbo version coming with the A53 cores clocked @ 2.5GHz and the G71 @ 770MHz.
This chip is built on 16nm process. It has dual LTE volte which will work at the same time. No other chips like Snapdragon, Exynos, Kirin or Spreadtrum has the same capability. It has a new vision technology, faster download speed and a world modem i.e. you can use it anywhere in the world.
