Zopo Could Roll Out MediaTek MT6592-Powered Device

Some of the Chinese manufacturers who have rolled out octa-core devices in the past include ZTE, Lenovo and Gionee, but it seems that there are whispers going around by Chinese sources that Zopo might very well end up as the first Chinese manufacturer in the market to roll out the first device that has MediaTek’s MT6592 octa-core processor running underneath the hood. Just in case one is wondering what the buzz about the MediaTek MT6592 is all about, it happens to be the first real octa-core processor in the market, boasting 8 actual cores, making it different from the Samsung Exynos 5 Octa which relies on two sets of quad-core processors instead.

Read this: are more cores “better”?

Zopo, being a regular MediaTek customer, does use a fair number of MediaTek processors in its existing product range, and so it will not be surprising to see that Zopo has the MediaTek MT6592 on its shopping list for its future devices. Other companies rumored to use MediaTek’s MT6592 octa-core processor includes Sony, and we do look forward to see just what Zopo’s collaboration with MediaTek will yield down the road.
