Guest TouchyAndalou Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Yeah, we need to get a forum up for this. I have a feeling it could be quite popular, definitely more so than the Grand X. Hopefully Europe/ the UK doesn't get a watered down version.

Hopefully Europe/ the UK doesn't get a watered down version. going of the pictures it looks like its had a total re-design, no more capacitive buttons ? suppose removing them would make it cheaper to produce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tillaz Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 £200 would be such a sweet price point. Here's another link with more pictures: http://tech.sina.com...497529793.shtml i think it looks much better now :) didn't really like the silver and blue look it first had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tillaz Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 i think it looks much better now didn't really like the silver and blue look it first had edit: we need a "grand era" forum just noticed it had a spec bump up... it now has a 4.5inch 720p display the increase in screen size must be to accommodate the on screen buttons.. so it probably works out at having 4.3 visible at most times also, i found this part interesting, although i don't understand what they mean Systems, U985 powered by the Android 4.0 operating system and built-in ZTE palm housekeeper.The phone does not require ROOT premise has the authority control of applications and content, a physical examination and virus killing function key. one thing that i'm not keen on and never have been... it has no removable battery... so how do you recover a boot loop if you cant pull the battery to get back into to clockworkmod ?

Guest runlevel5 Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 I'm also unsure about the non-removable battery but if it does retail at around £200 I might sell my G300 and get one. Great specs at that price point. @tillaz I take it you will be doing infusion type roms on this device if/when you get your mitts on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FrankieADZ Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) owww....any dates of when it might be out here? no removal battery....hmmmm....are we 100% on that. Edited August 21, 2012 by FrankieADZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TouchyAndalou Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 This is the phone I've been wanting to get, although I actually preferred the previous design of it and the battery thing, if true, is a real bummer. But as long as there's no more bad news, it's still looking a pretty decent option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sir_Didymus Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Wow! This phone looks a lot better than the previous design that reminded me of a HTC phone. I really really hope it does come to the UK at under £250. Waited long enough to upgrade to something with a lot better specs and I hope this can be that phone. Any idea when we might get it in the UK? Christmas? Earlier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest razzmataz1478 Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 some time in October i think I think it will be priced at £300. Anywhere below £250 would make the Grand X obsolete wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tilal6991 Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 I think it will be priced at £300. Anywhere below £250 would make the Grand X obsolete wouldn't it? Agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tillaz Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 I think it will be priced at £300. Anywhere below £250 would make the Grand X obsolete wouldn't it? na, that would defeat the whole idea of the kia-platform it uses... (same as the nexus 7 tablet) its was made to get affordable tegra 3 devices on the market... same as the nexus 7 tablet @ £159.99 it wont be over £250... have a Google about the nvidia tegra 3 kia-platform Anywhere below £250 would make the Grand X obsolete wouldn't it? yes, it would in reality, but zte don't seem to be bothered... and here is why the mimosa x (u970) released in china first at 1999 Yuan (£199.99) few month ago.... last week zte announced that the grand era (u985) will be released September in china , and said the price is 1999 Yuan (£199.99) so as you can see they have already made the mimosa x obsolete :o BUT, by the time the era hits the U.K the grand x will be around £149.99... so there would still be a £100 differance in price betwen zte quad core and dual core devices ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tillaz Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 just been reading this http://www.mobot.net...cked-2ghz-46733 so by the looks of it we should be able to overclock are zte era up to 2Ghz... (same tegra 3 chipset as nexus 7) that would make beastly quadrant scores at 2Ghz lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
