X908 Chinese camera phone

Samsung may have the INNOV8, Sony Ericsson C905, but Chinese handset makers aren’t sleeping as well. Recently, we’ve spotted the China-made X908 phone with 8 megapixel camera!

Now, I wouldn’t expect it to actually compete head to head with Samsung nor Sony Ericsson’s offering in terms of image quality, however considering that you’ll be able to grab this baby for next to nothing on your next trip to China, it’s a worthy contender. Or is it? Let’s see the specs first.

The X908 boasts a 3-inch QVGA touchscreen, stereo Bluetooth support (A2DP), FM radio, and a microSD memory slot. Furthermore, this fairly ugly phone also adds analog TV tuner, as well as dual-SIM card support. Plus, let’s not forget a retractable 3x optical zoom lens and a 2 megapixel camera on the front. It’s a killer, I’m telling ya!

On the downside, though, lack of 3G and WiFi are dealbreakers for many, myself included. Again, however, considering rest of the specs, I’m surprised there’s no branding at all. Just “X908.” Is that enough? Apparently, they think so…

    Most of the specifications are fake, it has 2 mpx sensor for example which is not even close to declared 8 mpx!

    Actually China have the exceptional technology to compete all other leading brands. The downside only as far as I noticed is that their having very crappy ugly user interface (UI) in their phones. But still I Love Chinese Phones very affordable and looks like the genuine!!!! Go CHINA GO!!!
