@Vitaliy_Kiselev you're right, my post actually was kind of off-topic. Just wanted to draw peoples attention towards a fairly produced phone that actually is a little more expensive than the ones you advertise in this thread, but for reasons I personally find worth supporting (social compatibility and sustainability) instead of the name of the brand. The phone will also support open-source OS and be easily repairable. In case anybody's interested you can always PM me. And fyi: I'm not in any way connected to the people that build the phone, I only find the concept very convincing.
Anyway, sorry for off-topic.
HUAWEI Ascend P6
it is not MTK based and even without FullHD screen, but quite stylish phone.
Full HD 6.5" IPS screen, OGS; 3300mAh Battery
Anybody knows a cheap but small smartphone like HUAWEI Ascend P6?
Can you alaborate that you mean exactly? As P6 has 4.7" screen, so it is not small. If you like similar design you can get iOcean X, it is quite cheap, just have cheaper screen and smaller memery compared to iOcean X Elite.
@Vitaliy_Kiselev. I was wrong, sorry. What I am lookin for is something max size like an iphone.

Not long ago got new 5.5" MTK6589T phone that I bough recently (like one below). Quality really went up significantly with last phones, very good metal and plastic, high quality screen. Has decent cameras (13Mp with F2.2 optics on back / 5Mp on front). All works fast and fluid.
Anyone know a good source for updating the Android on these chineses 6589 that have been already rooted?

Manufacturers sites.
I dont know the manufacturer :-P it says "Android" as brand. Behind the battery says H7330. Its a 5.3" 6589 like this one http://www.cyraaxstore.com.br/ecommerce_site/arquivos4755/arquivos/1369598751_2.jpg

This one I do not know. Good idea is purchase known brand who has proper site. Most models referenced above have sites.
Btw, why you need to update Android?
MediaTek's cumulative 2013 consolidated revenues through November amounted to NT$122.97 billion, rising 34.1% from a year ago.
Huh.
@Vitaliy_Kiselev, most things in life the people dont need, but want. Discovering how to update this phone by knowing which model it is clone may be useful for future updates and customization.

Thing is, why do you need phone customizations?
I love my main phone - Lumia 920 for its simplicity and lack of "customizations".
I dont agree with some standards. For example, the phone app could have more priority over the background apps and process. More control over the drivers, sound card for example has a bad latency. Boot customization for start-up processes in different modes...

Sounds bad. I mean that you spend so much time on this.
@Vitaliy_Kiselev Our relationship with technology goes way beyond what is logical from a utilitarian point of view :)
