got some la..but the ones we want

Me, and fews here too.
I tried the non-T version.

Dunno, since I tried the non-T version, the T version slightly upgraded version from the non-T version spec.

Not really, I remember I saw one update on my friend newly bought iOcean X7. The battery could last for a day I guess? As for accuracy battery reading, not sure about it. Since I'm not using it, I borrow from my friend to try it out the performance only.

Yupe, non-T version is, MTK6589 Quad core cpu , Cortex A7 Max 1.2GHz, while the T version is, MTK6589, Cortex A7 quad core, 1.5GHz.

You also notice that, other than the CPU is slightly more powerful, the RAM + ROM more than the Youth non-T version, not forget mention the Elite got 13MP camera.

Seems to be all Japan phones wo...   I dont see any China phone listed on their website.
Yesh. Dual sim with expandable memory card.

C3 has curved sides. Looks different. I hear it was for the ladies but the curved sides also makes the phone less flimsy.

Rule of thumb - When in doubt, grab what's cheapest but with the minimal specs you can live with. In more simple terms, get the best bang for your buck. Phone should easily last you 1-2 years. China phones are moving fast. No matter what you buy today, 6 months from now there'll new brands/models that'll entice you.

According to the 2nd link, the representative from ZopoMobileShop said .. "hello, the screen is the same for zp980 and c2. the difference in color are allowed while not the same production batch. enjoy". This suggest both phones are quite similar. Also found another source > https://www.facebook.com/etotalk/posts/535016119873264


I check one local source for pricing and currently C2 Platinum is selling for around RM950 vs zp980's RM1099. Seems the difference in price may be due to zp980 having additional 16GB rom + 2GB ram. Both models comes with 2 batteries. Neither mentions Gorilla glass. In absence of that, better/wiser to presume that they don't have Gorilla protection. Hence, don't stick these phones into your back pocket. Personally, I would choose the RM950 unit as I don't expect myself to require more than 16GB rom/1GB ram for a phone based on MTK6589T. Both models are good lookers but I get put off by their frailty & battery size.
Among the 2, Zopo appears to be more respected brand. Fair to assume better support from Zopo. ZP980 is afterall meant for international markets. Not sure if I should mention this next bit about Umi. I don't want to offend any current owners. So I place this into a spoiler. Dont get angry with me if you click on the spoiler.

Please correct ur info. I'm the owner of Zp980, and it is Gorilla Glass. let me shared more details on the ZOPO ZP980/C2 with you.

my earlier review

Since got ppl comment that why got no ppl giving review on those china phone. I will try my best to give the most simple review:

My Device: Zopo ZP980 aka C2 16gb

Spec:
Proc: MTK6589 1.2ghz (too bad.. The earlier batch is not MTK6589T)

Ram: 1gb (i had no lag or memory insufficient problem after 1 mth used, i'm a low to medium gamer)

ROM: 2.46gb (had fixed from 1gb + to 2gb+) for apps

Memory: 11.21gb for data files

Screen: 5" Full OGS HD screen (the screen is damn sharp and pretty!)

Battery: 2000mah x 2 (so far i used only 1 battery, as i worry the back cover will spoilt / loose if i keep opening & close, with 2 sim active, data connected, some gaming, wechat/whatsapp, calls, the battery able to let me to operate from 600am until night 9/10pm with balance 12% - 15%. Of cos its cannot compare with Jiayu, but to me, i think its ok for daily usage. for those who dont want to charge every day, may consider models with higher capacity like Jiayu.

Phone ability: No drop calls even data connection 3G is on 24hrs. phone calls are clear and loud.

Wifi: I got no issue, to me, the connection is strong & stable.

GPS: quickly fix the location. Pretty stable as well.

Camera ability: Fantastic! i very happy v the camera performance! rear 13mp/ front 8mp.

Stability: I'm on custom ROM now, i can said that this phone is very good except some ghost touch on the touch screen, the auto brightness is a mess where I can 'certified' it as malfunction up to now unless the official ZOPO released a more stable driver for this. But to me, I seldom used the auto brightness since i used smart phone, as it always not suit me for the indoor brigthness.

Price vs Performance: I will said it worth for $ as I personally like 5" HD screen & dual sim phone yet stylish designed. but compare with other models like Jiayou & NEO, i will said ZOPO is slightly overpriced.

Possible defect: there are forum that mentioned ZOPO C2/ZP980 do not have a metal frame that protect the touchscreen and when it is easily bent and those force will cause the screen to crack. Advise is never put on your back pocket.

ANTUTU: 11774 (with sim off, wifi off, screen brightness lowest, no other backgrounds apps running)
10855 (all aboved mentioned tweaks not applied)
Satisfy level: 8.9/10 cool2.gif

nay...

scare tio scam nia..
