iOcean X7 Elite to get OTG priced at $244

iOcean have announced pricing and full specification upgrades for the Turbo powered iOcean X7 Elite.

The current iOcean X7 is a great phone, however with just 1GB RAM, 8 mega-pixel rear camera and standard 1.2 quad-core MT6589 SoC, it's already starting to look a little underpowered when compared to some of the newer handsets. The iOcean Elite then is the phone you have been looking for, which features numerous exciting updates.

The most obvious update the X7 Elite has over the standard version is the faster 1.5Ghz quad-core MT6589T SoC and 2GB RAM. We have already published Antutu benchmarks from the phone which have it scoring almost 15,000 points! The upgrades don't just end there though, the camera on the Elite is a 13 mega-pixel sensor, there is a boost of internal memory to 32GB ROM, the already excellent 5-inch 1080 panel is now a laminated OGS screen and iOcean have just announced USB OTG support.

Prices for the Turbo powered iOcean Elite will be 1499 Yuan here in China ($244) but we expect international resellers to be selling the phone at closer to $290 once launched.
