Allwinner held a small media event yesterday where they announced their plans for the rest of this year and in to 2015.

The JiaYu G3 has to be one of the most successful Chinese phones of the past 18months, it started life as a dual-core machines and has finally been reborn with a quad-core MT6589T chip.

On our visit to THL last month we were lucky enough to see the THL Monkey King 2 in the flesh, at that time 4G LTE was mentioned but it now appears an 8-core MTK6592 chip will be used instead.

MediaTek and ARM have signed a deal allowing the Taiwanese chip maker to use ARM’s Cortex A50 processors and ARM Mali Graphics chips.

Mediatek must have impressed someone at Samsung, as reports are coming in that the Korean Android giant is planning to adopt the latest 8-core SoC the Taiwanese company.

Chinese E-commerce sites are hurting due to the slow moving iPhone 5C and have been forced to slash prices by more than $110!

Acer are trying their damnedest to grab a piece of the Android phone market so have launched yet another Android phone, the entry-level Acer Liquid Z3.

Chinese processor maker is going after Taiwanese chip giant Mediatek with their own Allwiiner A80 Octa-core processor.

Shenzhen based Colorfly plans to join Nvidia in the tablet game with the Colorfly T709 Tegra 4 powered tablet.

Chinese phone makers are finally looking to offer their phones to the international community, but with very little developer support available for MTK phones should we push Mediatek to honor GPL, or push manufacturers to rival processors.

Yesterday Samsung announced that it had added Heterogeneous Multi-Processing to the Exynos 5 Octa for true 8-core support, today Meizu have announced the same for the MX3

Phablets continue to be the main source of excitement in the Chinese phone world, and none are more exciting than the new Alcatel One Touch Hero and its many accessories.

Alcatel, the international arm of TCL have just updated their website with 3 new Android phones ranging from the Idol Mini to the updated Idol X.

Imagine you were the maker of phone processor, you were top dog until a little upstart took over one of the world’s fastest growing market! What would you do? Well if you’re anything like Qualcomm you would make a tacky video poking fun.

TCL are working on a new flagship phone to replace the successful TCL Idol X, what they have come up with is the very stunning TCL N3.

JiaYu have been steadily releasing more news of their JiaYu S1, and today we have some nice high-definition photos plus first look at some accessories.

Meizu have been soldiering on for quite some time and are prepared to make drastic changes to the company to ensure they can compete.

The much talked about and hotly anticipated (at least here at GizChina) Xiaomi Tablet is now rumoured to run a MT6589T CPU suggesting it will support 3G and calling!

Oppo continues to support fans and core Android users by offering the new Oppo R819 with 3 ROM choices from launch!

Chinese smartphones are as powerful well spec’d and affordable thanks to Taiwanese chip maker Mediatek’s excellent processors, Rockchips is now stepping up its game to take on the current leader.
