Yes, I have seen on YouTube that the 'retail' version of the Iron doesn't come with a quick start guide.
Also there are other mistakes in the quick start guide in the review units like the GPU is T760 MP2, but in reality, it is T720 MP3. So the graphic performance of the MT6753 should be 3/4 of the MT6752.

So no problem. It seems like I get the phone on Thursday so I'm getting excited.
I'll try to figure out every info I can when I get the phone.

confirmed, Iron hasn't gyroscope

The IRON doesn't have Gyroscope.
On the website "http://www.umidigi.com/?page-UMIIRON_Specation.html" we can see  G-sensor, P-sensor, L-sensor and .. accelerometer ... but G-sensor and accelerometer are the same sensor so it's a mistake that's a fact but no GYROSCOPE is indicated.

I can show the CPU-Z screenshot:

eMax's sensors looks great.
But I'm sad because I excepted that the Iron also has gyroscope and magnetometer, since it is listed in the specification on Banggood and they says the spec is correct. Also the quick start guide in the review units has listed gyroscope in the specification.
eg.: https://youtu.be/XS7KYqcicLE?t=6m37s

So I already have a cardboard VR, but seems like I can't use it.
I hope (the chances are almost 0) that this is just due to missing drivers and will be enabled later.

I don't know if I have seen a MT6753 in other brands with a functionnal Gyro, Compass or magnetometer but in the Android Filesystems we can see some reference to gyroscope and compass but I don't know if it's "standard" packaging.
About another subject I see this line in the build.prop, maybe confirm the Hardware buttons existence ???

RHen, I cannot confirm the mistake in the quick start guide because I don't have received a quick start guide in the box :x
