Handsets with MediaTek Octa Core processor is what many of the users are waiting for. UMI X2S was recently showcased at the Hong Kong Electronics fair, it is with the Octa Core processor and probably the first handset to house this chipset.
The UMI X2S seems an upgraded version of UMI X2. X2S will house the MediaTek MT6592 octa core chipset (cortex A7) clocked at 1.5GHz. The MT6592 benchmark scores was also in the news recently. This handset might come with Mali 450 GPU.
No info as to when the handset will be available and its price tag. This handset will not be available in India. If users are interested they can order it online from some Chinese stores. As for the specifications the UMI X2S will sport a 5 inch screen with full HD resolution. You already know about the CPU/GPU – the RAM could be 2GB with internal space of 8/16/32 GB (optional).
There will be 13MP auto focus camera and a front camera. Apart from the octa core feature the X2S will also include NFC. Other common features will be included (wi-fi, gps, bluetooth etc). The chipset does support 4G so lets wait and see when UMI puts up the official UMI X2S specs with price tag.
UMI Cross was another handset that was recently launched. It is with a 6.44 inch FHD screen running jelly bean 4.2 with 2GB RAM and 32GB storage. This handset is powered by MT6589T chipset with NFC support.
There is 13MP rear camera, 8MP front camera and battery of 4180 mAh capacity. The UMI Cross handset is priced at $349.99.

Thank you.
I didnt alleged dat u took money from dem to promote, im nt new on ur blog u know also.. So,i knw u vry well u cudnt have done such thing.. It was just a sarcasm abt d money thng i hope u didnt take it personally, what i meant to say abt d murder eg. Is frm d beginning of their venture wid AndroidGuruz UMI China played a critical role upto till now.. So,who blame UMI China or their distributor.. Ur ans wud be neither of them.. Bcoz,UMI didnt supply dem phones dey cudnt deliver(logic!).. Bt on what basis they collected money,&never refunded again..
Prithish, I have mentioned that you can get it online much faster with 10 days via fedex courier. Reason they keep the stock, UMI products sell out quickly. AndroidGuruz never keep stock, and they order it late. I don’t think UMI China will give them credit. You can also start a store and UMI china will endorse you but they will never give you credit – pay and order, as simple as that.
Prithish, i can understand u type that comment frankly, not seriously at all. Still such kind of accusation doesn’t sound good.
So,gd luck to those who invested or will invest to buy Android mobiles from the firm named by AndroidGuruz only waheguru can save dem… Period!!!!
U stated dat u got a mail frm UMI China dat dey r still working wid AndroidGuruz aftr knowing all the bullshit,so who to blame UMI’s or AndroidGuruz..??? People commented UMI r nt lyk dat bt AndroidGuruz r.. So,my question is to those if ur frnd commit a murder,& u also helped him conspired in eyes of law make u same amount of guilty.. R,in case of Gogi as mrinmoy stated he was offered money(for what reason i dont know) so it means at some point of time Gogi was also offered the same.. He accepted it or refused it dat only he knows.. @Gogi I hope as far as u can remember i & deepak was the only one who questioned abt UMI’s authencity(remember u also jumped on d wagon)
Prithish, http://www.gizchina.com/2013/10/15/umi-x2s-8-core-cpu-and-nfc/#comment-481697
in spite of all this I got mail from UMI, just trying to be honest cause tomorrow when you come to know you will still say look he was paid.. There were some allegation against you from some users, I removed that, cause am not like you. As for mrinmoy he was joking, I did cut off some of his comments… I told you I am not like you.
And friend – murder what kind of logic is this !
The issue is with androidguruz, you can get the UMI handset within a week if you order online from Chinese website. I have never encouraged users to buy from Android guruz you know it well. And just because androidguruz does sell UMI, does not mean I stop writing about UMI.
http://www.gsmarena.com/umi_x2s_is_first_to_use_true_octacore_chipset_by_mediatek-news-7011.php
GSMarena is a big site they are writing about UMI what do you make from it.. paid news? come on.. It big news, and again I am not referring to Android guruz. Hope you understand.
i also told gogi about umi x2s in the previous article. and prithish, u know buddy that umi offered me a bribe of 333 chinese yuan for that. !!
hahaha…
before 3days again umi people have ask me to wait for my umi x2 deliver.unto now they have give this promise to me since last 5 months.so what can i do now? after reading article of eminem i am confused. what to do ? i have made full payment .
What about nexus 5….any new news…….coming……… i don’t like Chinese brand plz….reply…..

sir i purchased auxus nuclea n1. i am using idea 3g sim but net speed is very slow. can you suggest something. please reply early.
Hi Gogi.
. I m strong follower of way u write and mention
that’s why I booked umi x2. Not blaming u for that. Just going after reviewed it.
. but aftr reading about umi cross phone. Feels like it’s dream to have umi phone. Dreams that don’t come true. If it does then would be really dream turned miracle
but personally umi cross article in your site is like pinch of salt on wounds.
. wish concerned people care to deliver a product which is necessity for some
Anyways good update as always
Keep it up Gogi.
Gogi
I read your comments quite regularly. unable to understand why r u promoting Chinese or rebranded Chinese brands whereas u yourself using Samsung galaxy note 2. pse comment
This is news and I never promoted any products. I am using note 2 in fact used the stylus to write this message, thats the reson I got it. And by the way the note 2 is made in china.
Gogi sir its made in korea unless you have the T-mobile or vrizon version in that case yes its made in china
I checked the box its Vietnam.
That means its not made in china
Made in Korea, Assembled in Vietnam. I guess just selected models (like the note 2 etc). May be cause of the stylus.
Nowadays the wage structure in China has increased multi-fold. So it will no longer be economical to make everything in China. Countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia and some East European countries are fast emerging a manufacturing hubs competing with China.
Another reason I believe is technology leak – you see many look alike made in China.
every Samsung phone except feature phones are made in Vietnam and for your kind information gogi it is not in china
Its all the high end models by all brands that are made in Korea etc. with strict QC and also Thailand is now a major manufacturer so thats why you can see an exact copy of S4 with mostly same features for 4500 bath (9000 indian rs.)
Sir, I purchased S4 in thailand for 3500 baths after hard negotiation. working fine
gogi bhai
ihave got the pic of back panel of canvas turbo
how can i send u
Hi send it to my email gogiinc(at)gmail.com
Gogi, it has been out we also got the front view of canvas turbo by mmx newscaster
Yes added the image on canvas turbo article.
once MTK octa core phns wil come out in the market then i think quad core phns wud b more cheaper ..hats off 2 Mediatek launching such gud processrs in a cheaper price that lets down the branded chipset makers to cut down their prices..
I think the day is no longer when we can get quad core 720p phns under 8-9k ..wt u say Gogi?
Yes, with octa core the older tech will get cheaper, but it will take time. Octa core handsets from Indian manufacturers may be say by end of 2013 or in 2014.
Bhai Umi ke naam se hi dar lagta hai. Isne 5 months tak neend uda rakhi thi.
UMI ke naam se nahi, AndroidGuruz ke naam see.
Gogi, really aftrall dat fiasco u r publishing abt UMI’s… Now im definitely sure u r getting paid by AndroidGuruz…
1. It its a paid news it will never be on my site. Read the full article I have not used the AndroidGuruz word. And I have also mentioned that the handset will not be available in India (what do you make from it?) and can be bought from Chinese stores.
2. Do you really think Androud Guruz can pay? Their staffs are without pay for months.
3.
UMI china is not happy with AndroidGuruz and they are not in good terms, probably UMI are not working with AndroidGuruz.Got a mail from UMI china they are still working with AndroidGuruz.4. I am getting a lot of tips to write about the first octa core and hence the article.
5. If you point fingers at others 3 fingers are pointing at you, so let me guess is it Samsung, Apple, Nokia paying you to write this comment. And trust me all of these can easily pay.
Excellent repartee!
Very balanced arguments and truthful.
It is a lesson on how to respond to accusations.
S.K
Dear gogi,
Never seen u using such strong words, its unlike u.
Strong words?:-)
completey agree with u gogi sir
Agree with u gogi, nothing in the article to accuse on you.
rana,some of the people doesn’t know anything.please write an article to educate them as UMI company is not fraudster company.fraud is done by the Indian distributor(Andr0id Guruz) who got the license from UMI to distribute their phone in India.also must educate them as UMI has stopped all the dealings with those fraudsters.
gogi..don’t take mr.pritish seriously..poor guy…
Prithish…
me also send Umi X2 S, Umi cross tips to gogi, and asked him some details.
We can use this articles for our gadgets interest or purchase info. You have any technical and pricing doubt… u can ask and share your details related to that article.
No need to disturb or enter in editors area.
Its not looking nice.
But then the main question again is , will they deliver handsets in india on time
or again will they make users wait for 6 months after payment..
Pls read the full article. If you are interested buy from online chinese store. I don’t think the handset will be sold from India.
wifi direct,mhl & nfc is still ignored by Indian brands.hope it come with canvas turbo.
WHAT ? Octacore clocking only 1.5ghz ? wats the big deal then…even MTK6589 Turbo does that…octacore of at least 1.7ghz is worth, if not 2.ghz speed.
Hi gogi, let us know the best trustful online store in the world and china …
are they providing free shipping like Indian online stores ? any thing disadvantage in the international free shipping process ?
Jaysakthi, there are few sites but from now all of these will stop free shipping as China mail (as per new policy) does not allow gadgets with battery. So you will need to go for the paid shipping option and consider adding an extra 20$ for that. Also paid shipping via fedex or other known courier is safe, faster and in most cases pass though the customs quickly.
Tnx
Just like keep UMI X1 & X2 never saw light of the day, this will also be a bluff
Umi x2s photo is out add that gogi
Nice one gogi sir……in yesterday ndtv cell guru show they have showed one of the namo handset……so i think they will launch in upcoming week
Well hope so it was supposed to be launched in 2nd week of October.
Lol…UMI.
