LEAGOO T5c 4G Smartphone First Impressions & Quick Review

Smartphones,

Best Deal Alert! You can now buy LEAGOO T5c 4G Smartphone from Gearbest.com for only $124.04 with free shipping world wide.

Meet LEAGOO T5c 4G Smartphone
LEAGOO, as a global leading export brand, has recently launched its latest mid-range killer – LEAGOO T5c, planning to release the full potential of mid-range handsets to the fullest. What distinguishes LEAGOO T5c from other mid-range smartphones is that T5c features high-end specs and craftsmanship on its mid-range devices. LEAGOO T5c is the world’s first smartphone to be equipped with SC9853I SoC. Based on Intel’s 14nm FinFET process technology, SC9853I features 1.8GHz 64-bit octa-core Intel Airmont microarchitecture, which enables it to offer a high-performance mobile computing ability coupled with ultra-low power.
According to the official data from Spreadtrum, SC9853i is an octa-core chipset with 1.8Ghz frequency. The test result of Antutu benchmark shows that SC9853i is 39% stronger than MT6750 , in which the single-core performance and multi-core performance of SC9853i is 25% and 36% stronger than that of MT6750 respectively. Thanks to Intel’s 14nm FinFET technology, SC9853i’s power efficiency is also predominantly better than the 28nm MTK MT6750.
As a mid-range handset, T5c’s appearance is conventional but has many surprising features only seen on high-end or even flagship devices such as premium metal uni-body, 0.1s unlock front fingerprint ID and HD rear dual camera, etc. What’s more, T5c sports a front beauty softlight LED for its selfie camera, offering more bright and natural selfie pictures for its users.

Here you can read about the unboxing of LEAGOO T5c smartphone.

Xiaomi Pocophone F2, equipped with SD 855 and Android Q

Posted in Mar 21, 2019 in Smartphones, no comment

Xiaomi Pocophone F1 (known as Poco F1 in India) was released in August last year, making it the cheapest Snapdragon 845 mobile phone ever (about $298). Now, the benchmark score of the new generation of Pocophone F2 appears on the Geekbench.

The benchmark score data of the new Pocophone F2 looks a little strange, with only 4 GB of memory on board, compared with 6 GB RAM for the previous generation of Phone F1. Secondly, although the motherboard of the machine is shown as “msmnile”, which means that it is equipped with the snapdragon 855 mobile platform. The running score shows that the single-core score of the phone is 1776. The multi-core score is 6097, and there is a big gap between the multi-core running score of the phone and the tens of thousands of other snapdragon 855 mobile phones.

The running score data also show that Pocophone F2 will carry the Android Q operating system, but when it is officially released, it may still be pre-installed with Android 9 Pie and updated later.

Some foreign media believe that this running score data may not correctly reflect the performance of the snapdragon 855. From these data, we can see that the Pocophone F2 may still be in the engineering testing stage, and we should be able to get more details about the new Pocophone phone in the future.
