Zopo ZP998 looks to be decent enough to try as it also comes with some remarkable UX features including Samsung's AirView gesture, GPU Mali-450MP4 (700 MHz) for powerful media and gaming experience and dedicated camera button and more.

What About Competition?

Currently, Gionee is one more China based smartphone maker which is releasing outstanding devices. Their new flagship device including th Elife E7 is a recent example, which is packaged with Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 along with all the best specification of 16MP camera and FHD screen. This devices for sure will give a tough fight to Nexus 5 when available in India. Relatively, Intex has already announced about the new True Octa Core device and now Zopo following the same lead has done the same.

Mediatek True Octa Core MTK6592 is the new Octa Core Processor which will work at the frequency of 1.7 GHz. This processor is considered to be the most powerful processor for the Android smartphones and there is huge demand in the market for such smartphones.

Tech analysts are expecting the new flagship devices to be equipped with new Android 4.4 Kitkat (though any other phone apart from Nexus cannot use the ‘OK Google' feature). Another reason for this can be that Kitkat has been especially designed to be integrated with the devices having low hardware configuration (nearly 512MB RAM). But if Zopo ZP998 hits Indian market, it may pose a great threat to the existing competent smartphones surviving in the market at budget price points. As it just got released in the US at a price of $299 (Rs 18,645 approx.)
