Thanks Trozzul,

I did notice that, but other than the display, is there anything more convincing?

Does 1.2ghz and 1.3ghz make much difference?

What about the GPU?

they are both quad core so there is barely a difference, im sure you could overclock the q700i to even faster than 1.3ghz if you really wanted, nowadays in the android world you want higher than 1ghz and at least a dual core, 1.2ghz is very fast.

Buy Q700i and only difference between q700 and Q700i is camera and you don't have apps to sd option in q700 but you have it in Q700i although it is simply solved by using third party apps or you can simply install Q700i rom in q700 to get apps to sd option (because both phones have same kernel, modem, radio everything) no difference other than this

Also both are having same CPU and GPU since they have same Chipset (MT-6589) And also for your info both(q700 and Q700i) are having same clock speed 1.2 GHz

You cannot overclock because both q700 and Q700i are mediatek device and their sources are not yet released and both q700 and Q700i are having same clock speed of 1.2 GHZ quad core and MT -6589 chipset

what you were looking for

Thanks Pradeep,

But I was comparing q700i with q700s. q700s is their new release this month.

What can you tell about them?
Go for q700s, its a newer chip, it has very capable mali 400 mp2 GPU, should give you solid gaming performance, also I guess the GPS module on the mt6582(q700s) is better than q700(mt6589)

also q700s has a gpu clockspeed of 400mhz - 500mhz, which almost 60-70% more than mt6589 - 257mhz - that is a massive difference in the gaming department!!!

Thanks rjspark89,

But my mind kind of drifted towards MMX Magnus A117. I heard it performs really well. Comparing with this, do you think Q700s still stands a chance?

its hard to say man, i would say go for the newer chipset phone, i.e q700s. The mali 400 is a pretty well known gpu(s2,s3 etc) , so i guess games are more optimized to it and as result they run better. that being said the power vr 544 according to specs should be more powerful, but i feel it falls short often.. i guess maybe because its underclocked in that mt6589 series..with highest being..357mhz.. q700s with dual core mali400mp2 at 416mhz seems pretty solid to me..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVfQktv1bds - gaming review q700s.. games seem to run very well..

at the end of the day.. as far as customer service goes.. both brands suck. but if you get a good device that wont matter.. so i would advise you to spend as little as possible on these devices. go for the cheaper one..which in this case also has a slight advantage i feel..q700s.

Hi there, I too got a Q700S for Rs.7300 with offer in Snapdeal.....stunning looks and stunning performance too! It is a real steal at his price!
Just finding a way to port a custom recovery......I'll post here if I do it......

Cheers!
