Top 30 budget quad-core MT6582 Chinese Android phones

Complete listing and specifications of the top 30 budget Chinese Android phones running the all new quad-core MT6582 processor.

A few days ago we published a list of 25 flagship 8-core Android phones with the new Mediatek MT6592 processor, now we are looking at the more affordable end of the scale with a list of 30 new MT6582 quad-core Android phones!

The Mediatek MT6582 is a quad-core processor that runs at 1.3Ghz and designed for use in Android smartphones. Like the MT6589(T) the new MT6582 is based on Cortex A7 architecture but with a ARM Mali400-MP2 GPU. Other distinguishing differences between the MT6582 and MT6589(T) is that the new CPU will only run up to a 720p display and it has been designed with value for money in mind.

With the MT6582, Mediatek hopes that Android phone prices could drop to as little as $100 (they already have here in China), and as we have seen from our own hands on with the Zopo ZP820 low-cost doesn’t necessarily mean low-performance!

The above list is correct at the time of posting. Specification details for some of the models will likely change and more phones will be added as they are announced.
