Just how good/crap is this? What phone for sale in UK could you compare it to?

Looks a nice phone and in many ways superior like the screen but the cpu is half the power of this one and the gpu about 1/4 of the power. I have a Doogee X5 with the MTK6580 chipset which is great but its only a dual core Mali-400. I bought a cheap 10" phablet which has the MTK6582 and that was only £53 with a leather case included. That has the benefit of 2GB main memory and 16GB internal storage but only marginally faster than the MTK6580 purely because they are clocking it at 1.5ghz instead of 1.3ghz which also seems to a have a small knock on effect to the gpu. My point is MTK6580 is good entry level performance where as this phone is easy mid-level performance. Quite a performance gap between them.

"35.8 gflops of performance" I want one.:wink:

That's a much weaker phone. About 2/3rds the gpu performance, less than half the cpu performance and generally weaker all round spec, less resolution etc.
This phone offers significantly more performance than the vodafone smart prime 6 or 3rd gen moto g but seems to fall in between the performance of the next level of phones beyond £100.
As stated the main benefit here is very good cpu and gpu performance but it lacks 4g and the resolution sits between entry level and 720p. A good phone for someone who wants to run graphically and cpu demanding apps/games/emulators etc but doesn't need 4g or android 5.x. A good phone for someone who does payg rather than a monthly contract possibly.

Gearbest do have some cracking deals on phones. However, unfortunately this isn't a DooGee :wink:
