China Mobile M850


Once in a while, we see network carriers release their own-branded devices. T-Mobile’s Revvl Plus is an example. Chinese carrier, China Mobile appears to have a phone in the works too which has been seen on TENAA.

The device which is listed on the database as China Mobile M850 packs specs that put it in the mid-range category. Its 5.93” display has a 2160 x 1080 display with an 18:9 aspect ratio. There is 3GB of RAM on board and 32GB of expandable storage. The China Mobile M850 is powered by an unnamed 1.8GHz octa-core processor. Our guess is this is either the Snapdragon 652 or 653 mobile platform.

The phone has a glossy curved back which is home to two dual cameras (12MP +8MP) and a fingerprint scanner. For selfies, China Mobile has thrown in a 20MP sensor. Under the hood is a 3300mAh battery.

The M850 runs Android 7.1.2 Nougat and measures 159.2 × 75.6 × 8.29 (mm) with a 171.5g weight. It will be available in blue, dark gray, and brown when it launches.
