JiaYu G3 Get’s it’s AnTuTu on!!


I really hope JiaYu aren’t just pouring on the hype source again to keep people interested in the G3, but the company have just release the dual-core Mt6577 JiaYu G3 AnTuTu test scores only hours after publishing photo samples!

After months of waiting and wondering, we are finally getting a clear idea of how the JiaYu G3 is going to perform, and it all looks very promising!

The first great pice of evidence to shine light on how well the G3 performs was yesterday when we got to see the 4.5 inch dual-core Mt6577 phone in a gaming test video, in  which if performed extremely well.

Today we got to see some sample photos taken with the JiaYu G3, which you can see here and look rather impressive for a phone with a suggested retail price of just $140!

Gizchina News of the week


jiayu antutu test scores

But now we finally have some real proof of the JiaYu G3’s power, a screen shot from an AnTuTu benchmark in which the G3 scored an impressive 5310!

Compare that to the Zopo ZP900 Leaders score of 5230 which has a similar spec but lower resolution screen (the G3 has a 1280 x 720 screen) and the JiaYu G3 is beginning to look like one fantastic performing phone!

I’m hoping JiaYu will release more about the G3 soon, and once they do you know where to get the news first!

    Hi Andi,
    awesome job as usual ! thanks again for sharing.
    do you have any news about the license issue?
    Still, i can’t believe about the pricetag??? When i look to the other phones on the web market … i mean, it can’t be that cheap… they say so just to make buyers wait a few days (or weeks) more! btw, i do wait for it 😉

    @Telmo The current sellers offering it online are most likely practicing profit taking. Game Theory states that it is likely nobody will offer a lower price, so as to offer a win-win situation among fellow sellers.

    He andi,

    Thanks for updating us about the G3, i watch your website every hour to check if it is updated with some G3 news 😛

    5310 is a good score!

    btw. i dont get any reply back for a password mail ( i registerd at your forum, but dont get the password email, also not in junk mail..)

  4. August 30, 2012

    @Ramones: check your spam/junk folder

    wow, I didn’t expect to get such a high mark. A good sign for G3

    @ivan; hi, its also not in my Junk mail folder, i registerd yesterday..
    also i tried with an other username and email account, same problem..
    i am using Hotmail.com, dont think that should be a problem right..

    @andy; do you now more about the network license paper ?
    and what antutu score had the G2 ?

    thanks!

    • August 30, 2012

      @Ramones please send me an email and I’ll get a new password to you ASAP. No idea how long it takes to get the license hopefully a couple of weeks

    G3 today had listed in mixeshop.com in presale for $175 including shipping and paypal fee.

    • August 30, 2012

      @RHS are they any good? I’ve never dealt with them.

    @ Calvin I ‘m ok with that Theory but the fact is i can find every kind of prices, from 180 (without shipping) to 290 (shipping included) USD !!!
    I think it will rather cost around 230 USD.
    Or else, Jiayu allready thought about it all, and will product billions of it so that it won’t be difficult to get it that cheap.

    @RHS; i dont know the mixeshop yet and dont know if it trustworhty..
    but instead of the other shops who’s selling the G3 in preorder for around 180-190.. 170$ with shipping to my country is a good price if you notice that the retail price of G3 is 140$ WITHOUT the shipping to your country and the profit the webshops made 🙂

    • August 30, 2012

      Yup I don’t know Mixeshop either, why not ask about them on the Gizchina forums

    It’s actually very similar to my current LG Optimus 2x in score. But the g3 has a few better features than it.

    Hi Andi,

    I understand that ZOPO ZP900’s Antutu Benchmark score is 5646. Here’s the screenshot from Zopomobileshop :

    http://www.zopomobileshop.com/zopo-rom/zopo-leader-zp900-antutu-review/

    I reckon the score of 5230 is of the 512 MB RAM version. What do you think ?

    Cheers, Amby

    • August 30, 2012

      @Amby those I didn’t manage that with the Zopo ZP900 I have here. I have the 1GB model.

    On Aliexpress, it is being sold for 175 USD free Shiipping, which seems to be best price so far, I am thinking of buying this.

  17. Fried
    September 1, 2012

    Hows the g2 got a better score?
    I know the 3g screen is way better. But still..lower score? Both mtk6577 with 1gb ram. Nope?

  18. Ramones
    September 1, 2012

    Yeah, thats also i want to know..

    how comes G2 updated version scores better then the G3?

    how the antutu will measured the benchmark??

    Ha-Ha-Ha, you are still waiting for real G3, I think you need to wait till October at least, nobody can produce 6577 based smartphones in volume now, except first tire brands. Only way, to go to black market and try to purchase some quantity with double price!

    G2 update version MTK 6577 got better score…
    although both phone G2 and G3 seems to have same CPU and Spec…
    don’t forget G2 resolution is 800×480 which is low…
    G3 using 1280X720 HD resolution make it stress the GPU to handle such resolution…
    that’s why G2 got better score than G3…
    but with that kind of score 5300 for G3….
    i dont see any problem to use this phone…
    event MTK 6575 phone which is have only around 3000 score can be use for normal usage and no one complain having trouble with a phone speed…

  21. September 2, 2012

    How about this device:

    http://www.maysuncn.com/Default.aspx?PN=News_deta&newsID=47212

    exactly same specs as G3

    ANTUTU result is: 5423
    uses Go Launcher as a standard Launcher!

  22. September 2, 2012

    I’ve just tested another device from same company:
    http://www.maysuncn.com/Default.aspx?PN=News_deta&newsID=47212
    it has exactly same specs but LCD is 4″ and WVGA resolution.
    Yes it’s ANTUTU test results are higher: 5494.
    So screen resolution matters!
    From my opinion, HD LCD is a sort of too heavy load for 6577. Nenamark2 shows only 17.1 FPS, while on WVGA screen it shows – 27.5 FPS!
    On qHD resolution it shows – 19.3 FPS.

    To finish with Nenamark2 results, Qualcomm 8225 based device with WVGA 4″ LCD and 512MB RAM shows – 30.3FPS.

    no.
    g2 better score because use better sdcard.
    you can see in score detail.
    g2 sdcard score is about 200, g3 sdcard score about 100

      @nando great spot!

    Am a bit confused as to why the jiayu g3 with 1 gb ram is showing a score of 946…others like the samsung galaxy s3 are showing 2481 on antutu benchmark…and they still have 1 gb ram…here’s the proof..
    http://indroid.info/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/271232.jpg

    are we missing something

    • October 8, 2012

      We’ll the JiaYu G3 only has a dual-core CPU while the S3 has a quad-core unit.
