Mobile Mondays: Nexus 5, Z1S And The Umi X2S

Surprisingly, it’s not a high-end smartphone with a world-renowned brand that snatched the chip. Instead, it was the Chinese phone maker UMI who put the octa-core chip on its smartphone – the X2S.

The X2S now features the MT6592 chipset with an octa-core Cortex-A7 processor clocked at 1.5GHz. The phone also has 2GB of RAM, a 5-inch Full HD display, 32GB of on-board storage, a 13MP rear camera with Sony lens, NFC, LTE connectivity and a Mali GPU.
