It looks like the quad-core MediaTek age is about to come to an end with the impending arrival of octa-core powered devices. Novo 7 Tech, local distributor of THL smartphones, recently announced that the THL T100 Monkey King 2 smartphone will be hitting the Philippines this coming January and it will be powered by the new MediaTek 6592 octa-core chipset!
