Coship, the China-based phone maker that previously released the Moly X1 with Windows 10 Mobile, has announced plans to launch the high-end Moly PcPhone W6. The 6-inch phone is scheduled to launch later this year for $399.

The phone itself (via MicrosoftInsider.es) is identical to the previously-revealed Mouse Computer MADOSMA Q601, which is only being sold in Japan. The Coship Moly PcPhone W6 will likely be available to purchase for U.S. residents like the Moly X1, which we received earlier this year.

In addition to its 6-inch 1920x1080 display, the Coship Moly PcPhone W6 will have an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 processor, along with 3GB of RAM, 32GB of onboard storage, a 13MP rear camera, a 5MP front-facing camera and a 3900mAh battery. The dual SIM phone will also support Windows 10 Mobile's Continuum feature, which will allow the device to be used like a PC when connected to a big screen monitor.

  • oh no, another china brand i want Sony or Samsung, nothing else just make it, sell it and I will buy it no matter what
  • Sony is Japanese, Samsung is Korean, LG is Korean, HTC is Taiwanese I believe. And I'm also pretty sure Coship is Japanese. Windows Central for Windows 10-Microsoft Lumia 640
  • Never mind it's Chinese. My point is the same though. Windows Central for Windows 10-Microsoft Lumia 640
  • They are all made in China anyway, who cares what label is on the phone? Posted with awesome WC app on SP2
  • There's also Huawei. They're a Chinese brand and they're the third largest smartphone manufacturer in the world.
  • Apple is a chinese brand.   look at their numbers.....
  • Plus its not Android, MSFT would never let anyone put their OS on any crappy hardware, so whatever the brand is, look at the Specs,so yes who cares what the brand is. the only thing is that these shoud be available worldwide instores. PLEASE!!!
  • You realise that Lumia phones are made in Vietnam, right? Not even China. Just quit with the mindless China bashing. Everything is made there.
  • Is it wireless only Continuum? Windows Central for Windows 10-Microsoft Lumia 640
  • I think anything that supports Continuum supports it wirelessly. (well, as long as it supports Miracast.)
  • Probably depends If it's usb c or not. Too bad it's not mentioned in the article.
  • Even if it's USB Type-C it might be wireless Continuum only. It needs to be USB 3.1.
  • Their website says it needs Microsoft Display Dock or Actiontec Screambeam Mini2.
  • So it's wireless. That's a pity.
  • No. Display Dock is the wired dock.
  • Oh yeah for some reason I though you were talking about Microsoft's wireless display adapter. Windows Central for Windows 10-Microsoft Lumia 640
  • The tech specs show USB2 instead of USB-C, so it is wireless Continuum. http://www.molypcphone.com/tech-specs.html
  • You do realise that Type-C can use USB 2.0 or 3.1?
  • Continuum requires USB 3.1. That's why the Nuans Neo is wireless Continuum only. Windows Central for Windows 10-Microsoft Lumia 640
  • but it also shows OTG supports too. so one have to wait till the real products come out.
  • it has USB Type C
  • There's a big difference between the USB Type-C on the Nexus 6P and the USB Type-C on the Microsoft Lumia 950 XL. The Nexus only has USB 2.0, while the Lumia takes full advantage of the new USB 3.1 standard. The Nuans Neo has USB Type-C but does not support wired Continuum because it only supports USB 2.0, which is basically microUSB but a different shape.
  • Type C is the connector. The technology behind it is more important. Example: Thunderbolt 3 uses USB-C. But your 950 doesn't have TB3.
  • Exactly. Most phones with USB Type-C are only USB Type-C in shape only (the connector). They're effectively microUSB 2.0 with a different connector.
  • i read somewhere else this phone use usb-c port, if that is true, then you can use continuum wired /dock too.
  • That's not necessarily true. It has to be USB 3.1 like the Microsoft Lumia 950. If it's USB 2.0 like the Nuans Neo it's not happening.
  • need OEMs like these in INDIA.
    ​bcz MS is ruining it in phone segment.
  • Agreedd!!!
  • +1
  • At least MS should release the windows 10 mobile ROM. Think about windows 10 on a mi 5 or an Oneplus 3. Continuum will be really snappy with sd 820. And since it is MS we are talking about, the chances of a windows flaship in india is highly unlikely. At lease not in the next 4 months or so.
  • The hp elite x3 beast flagships will be available in 2-3 months
  • Witing for a mi 5 windows phone in India.
  • I'm hoping for a SD830 W10M phone within a year.  It is a 10nm processer and can support up to 8GB RAM.  It reportedly can support 4k video recording at 128fps.  Its CPU is close to twice powerful of SD820 while more energy efficient.
  • And I'm hoping for an Intel i7 W10 phone in 2 years, octacore running at 3.4GHz on a 7nm processor with 16GB RAM and 128GB Storage, SD card slot, 60MP main camera and 13MP front camera. I'm also hoping that Microsoft will further W10M to where it will run full Win32 apps when in Continuum mode. Yeah, then you'll really have a PC in your pocket. Something you can game with. Maybe a nice Nvidia Titan X graphics scaled down to fit in the phone. Something you can play Tomb Raider 2018 with a triple monitor setup while your phone is hooked to the display dock. ;) Hey, if you're going to dream, may as well do it big. I suppose the battery on something like that will only last about 5 minutes, though, if you don't push it too hard. ;)
  • And if you want to use that phone you must put it in a fridge...Or watercooler... Posted from my Lumia 640 Xl dual sim 10586.218
  • For me, they should implement desktop environment for Continuum soon. Having such environment will be as good as owning a desktop PC, improving the multita
    tenfold.

  • You won't be happy with the SD830, you'll just want the SD840.  People like you are never happy with what's available, always complaining that they should make the phone with the next-gen cpu. I can't tell a performance difference between my 1520's SD800, 950's 808, and 950 XL's 810, other than picture processing.  The OS and apps feel the same between them all, and I only play simple, non-graphics intensive games, which also feel the same.
  • yes we need them In India. 
  • Good phone! But I'm still waiting for Lumia 15**.
  • you will end up in misery, sadly.
  • Lol. If he's patient enough his wish will come true come 2017
  • fact
  • Thats never going to happen for LUMIA. Lasst Lumia was 650. Wait for Surface Phone.
  • No looks like 850 is cmg
    Last week it has been imported to India for testing
  • Any Sources to back up the claims ??

  • That's not a bad price for the money really, 1080p screen and continuum for $400 not bad
  • Preach... Posted from PornHub
  • Not bad pricing
  • Looks pretty good. I like the clean design Posted from Windows Central for Windows 10 using my HP Elite X3
  • Elite X3 the phone?  how you like it?
  • Good. I'm pretty sure that China OEM's are the key for W10M success. Continuum might take off even it will be implemented in the offortable phones.
  • They seemed to have worked for iOS and Android......A lot of top end devices come from there, although I guess owners of flagships' will deny it. ;-) As for continuum, it is still in kindergarten. The hardware is OK but the software needs some work to tidy it up. I do agree that continuum is the one thing 'unique', and OEM's are bringing prices down to the level a lot more people can afford.
  • Cool phone...Battery not removable...
  • Providing you have a good charging regime, and condition the battery when new the cell should last 2-3 years at least.
  • Waiting for Xiaomi to launch Mi5 with Windows 10.
  • I want a Moly X... This sounds great with a 617 on board. Something I wished the 650 was. Posted via the Windows Central App for Android
  • Then the 650 would be at least $399 :)
  • I would had been on with that Posted via the Windows Central App for Android
  • Ok that's good... Just curious, are you restricting yourself to just microsoft offerings or would you consider other OEMs like this one?  This is kinda playing perfectly into what Microsoft 'apparently intended to do', make a few phones with large gaps and then have OEMs fill the gaps as they see fit.
     
  • I'm actually waiting to see the availability of the HP X3. I'm not too keen buying off brand devices. But this is intriguing enough that I would. Posted via the Windows Central App for Android
  • I love it when OEM's support a dead OS. Lol!! Although camera is a bit lame, the rest of the specs are pretty good, especially at $399 or £282 in the UK, if we get it here. Then again Amazon will help out ;-)
  • BOO!!
  • Sorry forgot to add IMHO.
  • Some people have varied opinions on the definition of 'dead'. W10M gets regular updates, new features, app updates, is still being sold, and is still being used. Yep, no sign of life anywhere...

  • Another useless device.. not specs wise but availability wise
  • Why useless. Please elaborate.... It's ok saying useless, but why? Is it because it won't be available where you are? Is it because it's made in china? You can't make a sweeping statement like that without backing it up.
  • Can you name any phone which has worldwide availability other than lumias? Whats the use of making phones when it wont be available at places where windows 10 mobile has huge market share
  • Well if you want world wide availabiilty for phones, you'll need companies like HP, Dell, Lenovo, Samsung, LG, HTC to step up and make them!  These smaller OEMs can only focus on where they usually market to I guess!
     
  • True.. Worldwide availability will need a lot of money.. But these major companies are not interested(for now) in making a w10 device.. So small oems have an opportunity to step in and grow big..
  • THere are set of people ready to complain on anything & everything. Put in a SD820.....Complain
    Put in SD210 -------Complain
    Put in SD4xx -------Complain All that was missing was SD6xx in MS WP line up.
    What do you get ? ..................Complains You should go for Custome made phones. Really
  • Either you have a very poor eye sight or you dont understand english.. Read properly before commenting.. I never said this phone is useless in terms of specs.. Its way better than other phones at that price.. We have a nuans and vaio phone biz with same 617 processor and other tempting specs.. But the real problem is availability of these devices.. None of the devices are available throughout the world
  • Typo: It should be 3GB "of" RAM.
  • Sounds the Goodship Lollipop.
  • It's a sweet trip to the candy shop.
  • No phones with W10M in Brazil... We want to buy, MS doesn't want to sell...
  • Seems to got a good battery...
  • Supporting Radio Bands: Dual SIM Dual Standby, Adaptive SIM Slot
    2G GSM: Band 2/3/5/8

  • Only $399? M getting one of it cones to US soil
  • Finally news about something better than budget phones.
  • The specs look more midrange than budget.
  • Another no name OEM that wont move the needle. Dead is dead.
  • You are right. Remember the OEMs back then who released WP8.1 phones? Where are they now?
  • Not individually. But the more there are, the more attention it gets. Everything starts small - OEM adoption included.
  • This and Alcatel are not no name OEM's. They are just not HTC or Samsung that's all (which I'm guessing is what you want). Alcatel for one has been around a very long time making phones. Posted from Windows Central for Windows 10

  • Holy Moly!
  • Its cheap!!!
  • And much much better performance than the Lumia 650, I still don't get why Microsoft built a midrange with so low performance chip for 2016, the 550 was supposed to be a starter phone, not the 650
  • My theory is that MS purposely made a low specced phone so that OEMs can have more space in the midrange market.
  • They should have picked up Snapdragon 618 which was recently renamed to 650 since Qualcomm wants to tell the advantages of next generation midrange chips Anyway, is glad to see OEMs are making midrange devices, no more phones running Snapdragon 212 in 2016 please.

    Using the Alcatel OneTouch Fierce XL for Windows 10
  • It is. These no name phones will flop and we won't see another. Microsoft will kill W10m early next year as market share will be
  • While I applaud the efforts of many of these lesser known companies, I find it hard to purchase any of these due to abysmal customer support or even warrenty/return support.  These companies not only have to make great products that are reliable and will not break after 90 days, but also have a support and/or repair network in place as well.  This is one area IMHO Apple does well that few others do well -- post purchase support of their products.  Dell in particular comes to mind in terms of failure getting any support once their hardware fails.  I don't see things going well with little known brands like 'Coship'

  • They already have seem what sales are like and aren't going to bother. It won't be long before all these other OEMs do the same. Anyone who sold Windows phones in the past aren't bothering now. Posted via the Windows Central App for Android
  • I'm a broken record... another phone that'd be interesting if it wasn't for the lack of glance (and wireless charging, to a lesser extent.)  MS really should allow W10M glance for OEMs.
