Hisense EG986 will ship with Android 4.3, 5.5-inch 1080 display August


Hisense phones have generally been low-end, but well made smartphone options for those on a budget, but the new Hisesne EG986 proves they have what it takes to build a premium phone.

Unlike previous Hisense phones the Hisense EG986 is a staked phone! It offers pretty much everything a modern smartphone customer is looking for in a phone and leaves very little space for improvement.

Gizchina News of the week


Stand-out features of the Hisense EG986 included a 5.5-inch OGS display which boasts a full 1080 HD resolution of 1920 x 1080, 13 mega-pixel rear camera, 5 mega-pixel front and is even claimed to ship with Android 4.3 Jelly Bean!

A cheaper version named the Hisense EG980 will also be available with Android 4.2, 2000mAh battery, 2 mega-pixel front camera and 8 mega-pixel rear.

Hisense say the both phones will be available from August.

    The source said “从海信EG980要等到8月上市来推测,规格更强悍的E986可能更靠后一些。 ” which mean ” As estimated from EG980’s August launch date, the more powerful E986 may be launch even later” instead of also August.

      Any large electronics store or department store should have it. They have them available in the supermarkets in Qingdao.
