For those interested in disassembling the G800F, here is an interesting teardown from ifixit.com:

This is also helpful as it lists the components (CPU and other chips) built into the phone.

Are there any more details spec sheets floating around the interwebs other than "it has 3g/4g, lots of cameras, a 1ghz processor." ?
I'm looking for information about the RAM/ROM on board, specifically, if anyone has any information.

Hey All,
I saw a very interesting watch on eBay that if legit looks amazing. I'm not sure that it is legit... I'd love to hear your thoughts on this before pulling the trigger and buying one.

Haha :laugh:
even before the real Apple iWatch is released, there is already a clone. If it is true, this is the smartwatch with the best price / performance ratio i've seen so far.
The eBay seller sent me a URL to the manufacturer's site. After a trip through Google Translate, it's not nearly as interesting. Bummer.
The screen is <1" with 96x64 resolution and a 180mah battery. My guess is that it has about the same capabilities as a U8 watch. If anyone can translate the rest of the page, that would be interesting.

This watch has less than the capabilities than the U8 watch. Definitely isn't MTK6572 nor Android. It runs nucleus RTOS, but a very stripped down one color UI. Like this watch:

Hi
I was researching the teardown on ifixit on Android watches available mainly the Moto360 and Samsung Gear live 2.
What i have noticed is that, Samsung Gear has 2 processors, a ARM Coretex-M4 & and Qualcomm APQ8026.
Moto360 on the other hand has, a DSP from TI TMS320 & a OMAP3660.
Its obvious that the larger AP (OMAP3660 or APQ8026) does most of the heavy lifting for Android OS and drives the display etc.
Am I right to assume that the secondary MCU would be handling all the low power stuff to deal with the heart rate sensors, gyros, e-compass etc.
Yes ...the secondary CPU is meant for the Heart rate sensor & the pedometer as per my knowledge. Bcoz the primary CPU is not developed for compatibility with PPG sensor, and i think its incapable of doing the calculations according to Algorithm written for Heart Rate sensor.
GFXBench have released a fair amount of new information relating to the unreleased Yotaphone 3.
This information can be seen here, and (amongst other info) includes the following:
OS: Android 7.1.1
CPU: Octa Core 2.0GHz
GPU: Qualcomm Adreno™ 506
Memory: 3.4 GB
Storage: 51 GB
Back camera picture: 11 MP (4000 x 3000)
Back camera video: UHD (4K) (3840 x 2160)
Front camera picture: 12 MP (4160 x 3120)
Front camera video: 4096 x 2160
NFC: No
Simcards: 1
I'm quite happy with these specs, especially the 4K video recording. However, the lack of NFC is a little unfortunate.
What are your thoughts?
I just hope there will be some community support. I'm not buying any new phones that have no devs for ROMs, kernels...
again no dual-sim!!!
SDcard man! Why the hell you don't put a f*****g sdcard hole??? If not, at least I need an internal 128GB... oh of course, I only have to pay 100$ more for that extra of 64GB....
Any info of the batery??
There isn't info regarding fingerprint sensor, but it have a pedometer :-|
This specs could be wrong or from a test build... There is a spec sheet for the Yota3:
"According to a spec sheet provided to Engadget, the Yota3 packs a much bigger 5.5-inch 1080p AMOLED display on the front and a 5.2-inch 720p E Ink touchscreen on the back, both of which are the least you'd expect after such a long wait. Likewise, you'll find a fingerprint sensor on the front side. It'll also come with Android Nougat, 4GB of RAM, dual SIM slots (one of which also serves as a microSD slot), a 12-megapixel main camera with dual flash, a 13-megapixel front camera, a 3,200mAh battery and a USB-C port which also does audio output."
@michael.santos , from where did you get that info? And also important: does this information also discredit the estimated prices were said here?

...it will be a tough sell with that aging chipset plus an apparent lack of new innovation.
LOL, the only phone on the market that's any different from all of the rest of the phones, won't sell because it lacks innovation.
Seems innovation today is more MHz and different radius on the edge
How about some RGB LEDs, upside down screen, I'm rich app and e-celeb logos? Now, that's what I call innovative!
No NFC?
The specs look great - slightly larger display, slightly larger epaper display, more RAM etc.
But no NFC would be an issue for me, and the CPU does not look like the fastest either.
Here is my unboxing experience and first impression of the OPPO Find X5 that I have been using for the past few days. Well before the package arrived, I have already watched and read so many good reviews about the OPPO Find X5 series and I was truly excited to get my hands on it. From the hardware to the software, everything is perfectly assembled and OPPO truly delivers in creating the one true flagship device that is super versatile and can be enjoyed by everyone, from professionals to casual users. The OPPO Find X5 series is truly a powerhouse and their devices are of the most premium quality without any major flaws. I believe this lineup can attract everyone from its own unique design to its magnificent ColorOS.
Alright let's get to the unboxing experience. The package that I received was the OPPO Find X5 and their first ever Imaging NPU chip, the MariSilicon X and it is truly remarkable because the chip is only 6nm in size but is able to deliver an unbeatable performance. When I opened the box, my eyes were already fixed to the phone itself because its back was beautifully crafted and the camera design has a unique cutout. The box also included a free matte black case which surprised me because some other brands would normally provide a transparent silicon case. Up next we have the manual, sim ejector tool and the premium service card. Also included in the box are the type C cable and the 80W SuperVOOC power brick that can charge 50% in just 12 minutes. Another thing that I think is worthy of praise is the inclusion of a type C to type A USB adapter which can be handy in some situations. The adapter can be used while on the go and in emergency situations which can be a lifesaver for some people. The camera design is interesting to me because it is not conventional like other flagships and the lens are embedded in the camera module which gives a sleeker look at the back of the phone as well as providing extra protection from scratches.
In my opinion, the OPPO Find X5 device is packaged beautifully. Some smartphone brands have already ditched the power brick and customers would need to buy it separately. This is not the case for OPPO, as they still include the power brick to varied wattage & implement their own SuperVOOC techology which really comes in handy.
The OPPO Find X5 is packed with a monstrous capability which delivers the best performance for daily usage. With the inclusion of the MariSilicon X, the images and videos shot from this beautifully crafted flagship will excel better than any flagship smartphone and it is something that should be praised. Truly, I really can't wait to share my review with everyone for this smartphone from the camera capability to the performance itself. If you have any questions regarding the OPPO Find X5, you may reply this thread.
