TCL are looking to enter the 8-core MT6592 phone race early by updating their current flagship Idol X with the new MT6592 chipset.
Gizchina News of the week
The TCL Idol X managed to be one of the more successful and sought after Chinese phones this year. Originally available as a 1.2Ghz MT6589 quad-core phone and later a MT6589T model, TCL have now announced a third model will soon be available.
The updated 8-core TCL Idol X+ will go up against other MT6592 phones from ZOPO, Mlais, and Green Orange al of whom have confirmed launches this week!

what happened to the hero n3?? any news about price tag and stuff that comes in the box with the phone (such as LED and e-ink covers, secondary little white phone, stylus pen. and…?)?? i was really interested in getting one .
actually i couldnt find any reliable review about it on youtube.
Andi do u have any news about Hero n3?
It is called tcl hero, or alcatel one touch hero for rest of the world
No, It is called TCL idol X+, You can see here: http://www.bicgate.com/tcl-idol-x-mtk6592-octa-core-android-4-2-smartphone-5-0-inch-fhd-screen-2gb-16gb.html
it’s widely sold on aliex, everything except e-ink covers i saw there.
i bet it will be updated too.
i would prefer if they would make a new idolx a bit thicker, but with bigger battery. for now the idol lasts about 14 hours for me, it’s a bit uncomfortable that sometimes it fails on me before i reach home.
resellers prices are too high!!
I wish they’d sooner announce an 8-core variant of the Worldwide version of TCL N3 (a.k.a. Alcatel One Touch Hero), as that’s gonna be my phone in a few months – wouldn’t mind 2.0GHz on that for an extra 100$!
