It is also world's first heterogeneous computing SoC (System on a Chip) with scalable 8 core processing for superior multi-tasking. In addition, the first to use the power efficient ARM Cortex-A7 in octa core configuration with ARM MALI GPU.

Upcoming Gameloft Modern Combat 5 optimized on MT6592 eight cores to deliver new levels of 3D games and unique visual effects.

To continue, another good thing, Gameloft Modern Combat 5 is optimized with MT6592 chip so, expect an stunning and breathtaking graphics never seen before. I hope MediaTek will released a dual core/quad core with LTE capability this 2014 (Updates: MediaTek already announced MT6595 Octa Core with LTE)

Unlike its rival, Qualcomm 1.5 GHz dual core Snapdragon 8960 processor is LTE capable and latest Cherry Mobile W900 LTE is powered by this CPU - first local mobile brand to offer LTE capable Android phone in the Philippines.
