At the Geak World event this afternoon in Beijing, Beijing based start-up Geak launched their flagship Geak Mars Android smartphone!
The Geak Mars get’s an number of upgrades over the Mediatek powered Eye, which is a relief as the phablet sized Chinese smartphone is priced at 2999 Yuan ($489).
Gizchina News of the week
A Sharp manufactured 5.8-inch 1080 display with a pixel density of 377! Running that impressive screen is a quad-core Snapdragon 600 processor running at 1.7Ghz and 2GB RAM!
Like the Geak Eye the Mars has a 16GB of ROM and a built-in battery but a 3200mAh unit. The Geak ROM is present also which is based on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean and features voice assistant, DLNA, Miracasta and NFC!
Looks really good, but that name is horrible. Why couldn’t they have named it something else?

sweet speed Andi, looking for “Geak Mars” on Google and you’re the very 1st! 😀
BTW nice phone… things are heating up!
Hi .. Andi can you post link to their homepage..I cant find it
The back panel reminds me a bit of the Meizu MX2.
Andi, you are mistaken: “the Mars has a 16GB of ROM”.
As the name “Read-Only-Memory” indicates, a only one time programmable ROM would be utterly useless as user storage medium. You either should it correctly call Flash-EEPROM, or by its common, less accurate street name Flash memory, but definitively not ROM.
It doesn’t really matter, because in the smartphone world, almost everyone refers to it as ROM.
Well, my understanding in respect to the smartphone world is so far, that “ROM” is the image file being used when upgrading or changing the currently used operating system by flashing it to NVM.
Built-in memory is often called ROM by smartphone manufacturers
Is it dual sim
looks good, when will it be avaliable to buy?
will it be available in the uk or us?
