Looking a little like the Xiaomi Mi2S, THL have just released the THL 2220C smartphone with octacore processor at quite a nice price.
The 5-inch mid-ranger has a resolution of 1280 x 720 and the panel is an IPS model for improved viewing angles. features include an octacore MT6592M chipset (that’s the low power 1.4Ghz model), 1GB RAM, 8GB memory and space for a 32GB SD card.
Gizchina News of the week
Network support is limited to GSM (850/900/1800/1900/ and 3G WCDMA (850/2100Mhz), sorry no LTE on this phone. There is also Bluetooth 4.0. WIFI 802.11b/g/n and an 8 mega-pixel rear and 5 mega-pixel front selfie camera.
As usual THL will be teaming up with international resellers to offer the phone which will costs $179.99.
180$ nothing dramatic. You can buy the Coolpad 7320, 5.5′ IPS, nicer camera, much better build quality for 140$. It also has the high power version of 6592 processor, 1.7Ghz
And a 2500 mah battery.
for 180$ it’s better to buy Jiayu G4S with 2GB RAM
THL are losing it… At one point they were a pretty good ‘go to’ company for a good cheap chinese phone, but they seem to have forgotten that it takes more than that model of business these days to grab peoples interest… I’d rather put money down with someone like Zopo any day now, atleast they look after their older models with android updates to a degree…
THL used to be one of my favorite companies, the Monkey King 2 and Iron Man were amazing phones for the price they charged. Lately it’s been all down hill for them, no LTE, no Kit Kat, very boring designs, poor customer service.
Don’t buy their product. Empty promises for KitKat update for their W and T series. 2 mth ago THL reply email said will release KitKat update soon. Now not even a news about release. Stop buy THL product.
