Earlier today
Coolpad announced the
launch of their latest Android smartphone the 5-inch CoolPad
Great God F1 with
octacore processor for just $146!
CoolPad have just
launched the worlds most affordable
octacore Android smartphone! The CoolPad
Great God F1! Running a 1.7Ghz MT5692 processor,
2GB RAM and a 5-inch 720 display the CoolPad
Great God F1 is a bargain at only 888 yuan ($146) here on the Chinese Mainland.
The
phone also packs a front 5 mega-pixel camera, 13 mega-pixel rear camera, dual-sim support and 2500mAh battery! All good stuff!
At the
launch CoolPad compared the
Great God F1 to the
Xiaomi Mi3 and
Huawei Honor 3X (also an
octacore phone), and at less than half the price of the Xiaomi flagship
phone the
F1 is an amazing bargain!
But, and this is a big BUT, the
F1 has only been announced as a TD-SCDMA + GSM model, meaning 3G won’t work outside of
China! Hopefully a WCDMA model will
launch soon.
