Micromax Quad Core Smartphone to Come Soon Powered by MediaTek MT6589

In new year Micromax will come up with quad core processor, 1 GB RAM smartphone. Though the news has not been confirmed by Micromax but suddenly the introduction of MediaTek MT6589 SoC with quad core Cortex A7 application processor raises the question when the quad core beast is coming in market. This time MediaTek may also replace PowerVR SGx531 with higher version like SGX540 or even SGX544. In that case GPU is also one of the best for gaming. Now assume 1 GB RAM is there to be exploited. The SoC lone can handle multitasking efficiently. Along side 1 GB RAM ensures the processor or GPU do not cause excessive lagging when a heavy thread is running.

MediaTek MT6589 is based on power efficient cortex A7 ARMv7 application processor. MediaTek is claiming that it’s the most power efficient CPU cores out there in market. The CPU cores are fabricated based on 28 nm architecture. It’s truly an efficient Soc with some cutting edge technology. The SoC supports full HD 1080p video playback, full HD 1080p display with 1920×1080 pixels resolution, DTV grade picture quality. MediaTek Cool 3D suite is also supported by the Soc. Therefore, you can expect a 3D smartphone from Micromax in near future as well.

Each time a new SoC comes from the house of MediaTek MT6589 we can expect the application in sub-$200 smartphones. Let’s see how Micromax negotiates with this move from MediaTek.
Note: No confirmed news on the release of Canvas 3. It’s coming soon.

  4. Ur review of a110 useful.
    Think to buy a110 two mobile me and friend.. Upcoming micromax mobile better than a110….?
    Tel ur opinion we wait or buy a110…..!
    Not need urgent mobile…. Need long time usage good mobile.
    Tel us….

    • @Prakash thanks for your feedback. I guess upcoming Canvas 3 will be even better than Canvas 2. Since you are not in a hurry wait for at least a month.

  5. Hi… its really inspiring to c new smartphones coming in, and the way you have maintained the site. plz help me in advising, do we have any Quad core phone with nvidia Tegra2 in the price rage 0f 18000, probably with a dual sim and a bit large screen.

    • @Manish Im surprised to see you are looking for outdated NVIDIA Tegra 2 SoC at present. It has never been a popular SoC at any time. When you are paying up to 18k why this choice? Can you please elaborate. Samsung Galaxy R, LG Optimus 2X run this SoC. I guess both these handsets are out of market right now. Let me know if you have other choice. I may help you picking up another one with different SoC. You may try with Tegra 3 but only HTC One X and One X+ available in Indian market. Both cost too high. You need to explain your requirements for better clarification. I hope you understand my point.

  6. When we can expect quad core in micromax i am in hury to buy phone shall i wait for more 10 days

  7. Any other phone u suggest just like canvas 2

    • iBall Andi 4.5H is a good alternative. I guess you are not looking for phablets. Therefore, Karbonn A21 is also fine. From popular brands you only get Sony Xperia Tipo Dual in this price segment. I would not suggest Samsung Galaxy Ace Duos. Let me know if you satisfied with the list. Otherwise, tell me your requirements so that I can choose best products.

      • bro i purchased a110 fabulous phone how to disable background running applications like hookup facebook search etc battery backup is also satisfies me way better than s duos no lagging even after so many running applications :)

        • Thanks for your feedback. You can disable applications from ‘Manage Apps’. From home screen press the menu button. Second option comes is ‘Manage Apps’. Go to ‘Running’. You will see the applications running in background. It’s actually the processes using RAM. Close applications you think is not necessary. To do that click on any app and you will get the option to ‘Stop’ it. Also remove the processes from cache that comes at the bottom of the page. Please do not close an app that comes with ‘Android’ logo. Hookup, Facebook, Search are integrated apps. You can’t remove the apps without rooting the device. But you can stop these apps in the same way.

    • Due to some technical difficulties some of the comments got deleted last night. Please post the question once again.

      • Pradeep Madaan says:

        I m having LG OPTIMUS ME right now nd its a good handset but m a kind of person who always be in a hurry and i love to do multi tasks at a time like i m using FB and suddenly get a sms then rapidly i wanna read that msg but in my recent mobile when i do multitasks at a time my mobile gets hang nd m a camera frndly person who loves to click pics anywhere anytime so plz tell me if mmxa 110 is a good choice for me or not…..?

        waiting for ur precious feedback…
        Regards
        Pradeep Madaan

        • @Pradeep thanks or posting the same question once again! Well, things you have mentioned here does not cause any problem at all. Even with FB open (it’s actually remains active always unless it’s rooted), Yahoo/Gmail, GTalk, Google Map, Hookup (Micromax own service) on condition you can play games like Temple Run, Raging Thunder 2 etc. You can close unnecessary apps to increase RAM for even faster response. Therefore, I can say it’s best buy for you as long as you are convinced with the 5 inch display. Battery backup is certainly not the best. Otherwise, it’s perfect.

          • pradeep Madaan says:

            Thanxxxx for ur rply now also tell me how is its voice clarity during phone calls…??

          • No issues with voice call clarity. It’s simply good! Rest depends on the network you are using.

          • pradeep Madaan says:

            Also tell me how can i root fb but before that clear me wat does this word “root“ stands for

          • Rooting simply means getting super user access. You can install some of the apps that do not work in un-rooted condition. It’s always better to root the device. But it voids the warranty. So be careful and root only if you think it’s required. Search Google for rooting tools and procedure.

  9. you are too good bro i have no words to say you thanx :D

    bro is rooting void the warranty and also how to update cricket fever to full version

    • You are most welcome here. Connect your phone to internet and complete the purchase. It costs just Rs. 50.

      • pradeep Madaan says:

        I also heard about a quad core handset with 1gb ram which is gonna come this month..is it true…??

        • Yes, it’s true. Probably, by the end of this month it’s coming. No exact info so far. But something unique is coming!

          • pradeep Madaan says:

            So should i wait fot that one or go for it…??

          • If you are not in hurry you should go for the Canvas 3 (not confirmed). It will be even better. But price will be slightly higher, approx 13k.

          • pradeep Madaan says:

            A110 is a dyal sim phone but at a time only one sim works then y the company is calling it dual sim if both the sims doesnt work together

          • Actually all dual sim standby phones you will find in market all operate based on the same principle. You can keep two sim cards. But when one sim gets a call or you are making calls other sim goes to offline mode automatically. Once you disconnect the call both the sim cards are active once again. That’s how it operates. You do not need to switch off the phone or anything else. It’s advantageous as you do not need two separate phones at a time.

            Okkkk thanxxx alot i have lots of qstn to ask nd i will qsk my qstbs tommorrow till the byee gud nyt ttyl…

  10. Bro r u sure quad core release this month ?

    • No surety! But chances are high. I have not received any response from Micromax so far on it’s arrival. But I am expecting it by the end of this month.

  11. When the Pixel 3 is gonna launch in India with useful upgradations? I am d huge fan of super AMOLED Display….please reply!

    • No info so far. But it’s definitely by next few weeks. Possibly, new gen Pixel will have Super AMOLED display, quad core processor, 1 GB RAM and out of the box JellyBean. As you know ‘Pixel’ series comes with similar specs as compared to Canvas but display remains AMOLED. Hopefully, the trend will continue.

  12. 1. Will Micromax release Canvas 3 & pixel 3 together on d same day like it did previously?
    2. Does the battery issue will remain d same in case of pixel 3? Or it will b fixed!?!?

  13. Hey Mandip,

    I’m looking to buy either Micormax A110 or Iball Andi 4.5h. My main requirements are
    1. Multitasking – I will use be using many apps at a time most of the time
    2. Gaming – Although not an hardcore gamer, I will definitely use it to play many games.
    3. Battery – I need the battery to hold up atleast for a day with medium usage.
    4. Multimedia – If the camera is a decent snapper, that will be a added bonus. But the display should be good enough to watch movies easily.

    Which of the two you think will suffice to my needs?. My budget is upto 15k. Or you think it would be better to wait for Quad cores releasing soon?

    Thanks,
    Suraj

    • Both are good. In iBall Andi 4.5H has more RAM and same processor which simply means faster multitasking. Gaming will be better in Andi. Rest of the features are similar. Both boast good day-light capturing but low-light shooting is bad. Since your budget is 15k I recon you will get a quad core one with 1 GB RAM.

  14. Bro canvas2 november me release hua aur kia canvas3 itna jaldi release hoga i heard that k june tak hosakta release canvas 3

  15. Bro if u dnt mind can u tell us who told u about canvas 3 releasing this month

    • It’s from an internal source. Release date was not confirmed but it was confirmed that the device is in manufacturing unit. I have told many a times the same.

  16. Bro a90s rate is 12.5 k but how come canvas 3 be at 13k

    • @Hafeez How I can I confirm all these when the device is not officially announced. It may be 14k. In that case the AMOLED version or Pixel 3 (may be) will cost 16k or 17k. I do not think buyers will show that much of interest when the budget exceeds 15k. At the end of the day the brand is not too big and the quad core SoC is not the best. Imagine what happens if Lava releases next Xolo with NVIDIA Tegra 4 at 20k. These are assumptions. Isn’t it?

  17. I sold my mobile at 9700 to one of my friend coz canvas 2 is out of stock he is in very need

  18. bro can you just inform me when canvas 3 releases through mail i will be thankful to you

  19. hiii… good afternoon …….is there any sony xperia product mobile will release in this month …or earlier of february ..such a price around 13k- 14k……. ??????

  20. hello mandip sir,
    do u have any idea about the size of canvas 3? And how it’s design will be?

  21. hie do u think that canvas 3 will have a good battery life. i wanted to dgo fro canvas 2 but after some reviews abt the battery issue in it i thought to wait for another release of micromax.

  22. Micromax Canvas HD A116 sir good news from mmx, can u tell mmx a110 is better r A116 ?

    • Canvas HD is better than Canvas 2.

      • can u tell the diff between them

      • as it says the price of 116 has 15k , is it worth full r shall i go for a 110. i can go for 15k , but my question is is it worth full for the specifications .

        • @Sunil it’s the MRP not the price retailers will it it out. Possibly, it will be available at around 12.5-13k.It worth the extra amount it claims. It has quad core processor, 1 GB RAM and HD display with higher ppi.

          • thanks a lot hope this device has a good sound quality

          • There will not be a world of difference as no dedicated sound enhancement is there in Micromax A116. So, I mustn’t say it’s better as per as sound quality is concerned. May be slight better including the loudspeaker sound. All in all, nothing groundbreaking.

          • should i wait for canvas 3 r shall i go with A116, can u give me any clarity when canvas3 will release, will those handsets has any diff r alomst same?

          • mandip sir,

            when can i expect A 90 plus, will there will be any diff between A116 and A 90 +, do u have any idea when a 90+ is going to release, ple clarify my doubt sir

          • hiii……Micromax A116 Canvas HD and micromax canvas 3 are same or different mobile ?????

            if u think that micromax canvas 3 another handest what is that specification ……when it will be come to the market …

  23. Hello manidip! Micromax had announced that they had planned to launch 30 smartphones this year….it overjoyed me!will canvas 3 one among them?
