JiaYu have cleared up some details regarding their
JiaYu G2F
WCDMA model for
international markets. Here are the details.
There was great
news dashed with a little confusion this week when JiaYu confirmed the low-cost ($80 in China) JiaYu G2F would
launch midway through March in
WCDMA guise. The confusion came when the
display specs had changed, here are the official
details.
JiaYu contacted us earlier to confirm that the
screen on the
WCDMA model will in fact be different to the version of the TD-SCDMA China only phone. Obviously the size at 4.3-inch remains unchanged however the resolution and type of
display has changed. JiaYu say the
WCDMA G2F will in fact have a lower 854 x 480 resolution but explained the reason for this change is due to the use of an
OGS panel on the
international phone. JiaYu are confident that the
OGS panel (which is thinner and improves viewing angles) is a better all round
display when compared to the
1280 x 720 resolution
screen on the China only model.
The rest of the JiaYu G2F
specifications remain the same on both models with the addition of
WCDMA 850/2100mHz support on the new phone. To keep those
specs clear in your mind they include Corning Gorilla Glass 2 display, 2 mega-pixel front camera, 8 mega-pixel rear, 1GB RAM, 4GB of internal memory and a 1.3Ghz
MT6582 chipset.
Once the JiaYu G2F goes on sale we will bring your further details.
What do you think of the change in
screen resolution? do you think the
OGS panel makes up for the lower resolution?
