TCL Corporation, parent company of Alcatel, announced a few days ago that they were preparing a successor to their Idol X device tentatively named the Idol X+. Based on the MediaTek logo spotted in some images that leaked online, the device is expected to come with MediaTek’s latest high-end octa-core processer. Other specs are unknown, but something in the 5-inch or better range with 2GB of RAM and of course, a high-end processor, is expected.
As the images show, the device is expected to have a thin bezel and is physically thin. When the One Touch Idol Ultra appeared at CES 2013 earlier this year, it was touted as the thinnest smartphone on the market, so TCL is no stranger to producing thin devices.
According to reports, TCL is planning to partner with JD.com, a Chinese online retailer, to sell the new Idol X+ smartphone. Outside of China, it is not clear what the plans may be, but the device will likely be sold as an Alcatel branded device.
