JiaYu S3 MT6752 64bit Benchmarks


jiayu s3 hero

One of the big draws of the JiaYu S3 is it’s octacore, 64bit MT6752 processor. How does this new mid-range chip perform and is it the powerhouse we had been hoping? Find out with our JiaYu S3 MT6732 benchmarks.

Mediatek really have Qualcomm on the ropes this year, where as the current range of Snapdragon chips are less than underwhelming, Mediatek are taking the phone world by storm. As usual Chinese phone makers have been the first to take advantage of Mediatek’s new hardware to make their already great hardware even more powerful than before.

Luckily we received the JiaYu S3 smartphone earlier which boasts a 64bit MT6752 chipset. This is an octacore chipset running at 1.7Ghz and a Mali-T760 GPU. The version of the JiaYu S3 that we have on test is the 2GB RAM version running Android 4.4.4 Kitkat ans like all S3 versions has a 5.5-inch 1920 x 1080 display.

As this is the first MT6752 phone I have had chance to really play around with I ran a host of benchmark applications to give the JiaYu S3 and the MT6752 processor a through test. Below are the results:

JiaYu S3 Benchmarks Screenshots

In addition to these test I also tested the GPS and managed a lock on time of under a minute which isn’t quite as good as the Elephone P6000 we tested a short while back (with MT6732 processor).

As you can see we have got some pretty good scores from the JiaYu S3 and the MT6752 chipset itself, of course real world testing is the only real measure of how well a phone performs and I intend to write up a full and complete review.

Keep posting to GizChina for more benchmarks, reviews and news.

    This phone seems to be the one everyone is waiting for 2015. It would be nice if you let us know how the GPS perform, meaning accuracy. One minute lock is acceptable as long as it’s accurate once you are driving.
    Thanks for the review anyway, so far the best reviews around the web

        Yes, Yes! Im really looking foward to buy this phone, and the GPS is very important to me. Please it would be very nice to know more about GPS accuracy on Jiayu s3. thank you very much Andi.

        I wasn’t rushing you, take your time.
        If the GPS is accurate then this mid-range mediatek could steal some customers from high-range Qualcomm.

    Also test the call quality of the phone and the speakers. Some Chinese users have complaints about these matters.

    For example, in a noisy environment, a Chinese user have said that is very difficult to hear each other voices.

    “GPS [ of the MT6752] … isn’t quite as good as the … MT6732”

    How is that possible? What have they done wrong?

    GPS is not that related to the cpu, if it has glonass it should fix in a second and dont loss connection during driving a car.
    jiayu must have done something wrong, maybe the antenna.

    too bad, i have been waiting to buy this phone.

    • RobertNL

      If you check out the Jiayu forums they say the lock is very strong. Even seen some photos of having a lock indoor.

    Hi, Andi
    Will you test ECOO E04 Aurora (6752 version) ? I’m very interested to order this phone.

    • January 28, 2015

      I have one on the way to me πŸ˜‰

      • RoS
        January 28, 2015

        Great πŸ™‚ Please check if it have notification light, if this is not a problem for you.
        Thank you in advance

  15. January 28, 2015

    Seems like Jiayu will need to optimize the ROM a little. The 3DMark score is too low in my opinion. My Cube T7 does reach 10,448 in the Ice Storm Unlimited test at slightly higher resolution.

    • Marco Lancaster
      January 28, 2015

      Yeah they need, also for the camera quality. But, if they don’t, I guess soon we gonna have good customs roma for S3.

      • Demetrio
        January 28, 2015

        Pictures are already good. I heard about some issue on videos… However Jiayu is publishing a ROM every week (check needrom.com)

        • Marco Lancaster
          January 28, 2015

          Yeah the pictures are superb, the only problem now is the video recording is not showing the true power of the camera.

      • Simon
        January 28, 2015

        We’ll have to root the S3 first though before flashing custom roms.

        • Marco Lancaster
          January 28, 2015

          Simon, the phone is rooted out the box, just have to activate superuser on settings. I would say, the first thing to do now is port a proper recovery for it, like Philz Touch or Carliv πŸ™‚

          • Simon
            January 28, 2015

            Oh wow really thats cool. How about TWRP ?

            i’d quite like custom kernels like Franco, Elemental X to go alongside some roms: CM12, LiquidSmooth, Euphoria (formerly Mahdi).

            • Marco Lancaster
              January 28, 2015

              TWRP also is a good option too!
              Jiayu phones also got great support and custom roms and even custom kernels, you can check on needroom, there’s a lot of roms for Jiayu phones, and judging the Jiayu S3 will be a sucess of sellings, we can wait the better of development for it!

            • Simon
              January 29, 2015

              Nice, I didn’t know that. Are you waiting for the 3GB version as well ?

            • Marco Lancaster
              January 29, 2015

              Yeah man, I want the monstrous multitasking of 3GB of Ram Haha and also NFC is a pretty cool feature to ignore.

              January 29, 2015

            • Marco Lancaster
              January 29, 2015

              I want the whole black version, for me the black color on the back gives the more premium finish for design. Btw I would after buy the other backovers too, the white and silver one! You know, just to try Lol

            • Simon
              January 29, 2015

              Yeah why not. I’m planning on buying this phone around March time (hopefully the 3GB ram version will be out by then), I hope I’m not going to be disappointed.

            • Marco Lancaster
              January 29, 2015

              I’m too! I guess the phone will come out, just before the chinese new year, some sellers said that. And around March we also can see good reviews of the phone, here on Gizchina and also on youtube, I will wait it.
