At the Cherry Mobile Dealers’ Night held today, the local brand not only honored their best performing dealers, they’ve also teased us with a new phone: the Cherry Mobile Flare HD. It’s a Quad-Core IPS HD phone with 12MP + 5MP cameras and will be released in 2014. Hop on over the jump for some specs and some pictures / initial unboxing!
Looks like all of the specs we’ve guesstimated for the new MyPhone device hit the mark! Well, except for the SIM sizes and price. But either way, it looks like the MyPhone Iceberg Mini is now officially offish. With the local phone manufacturer’s fan page posting a picture of the device with all of its specs, info on price, and all of its logos and stuff. The brand has kept its cards close to its chest, but with the November 29 (tomorrow) launch looming, it seems they’re letting the good people of the internet in on the fun first. Technically, since you can buy the phone tomorrow, we suppose it’s a sale date and today is the “launch / announcement”. Semantics aside though, if you have the money (or the credit card) tomorrow, you can walk home with one of these guys immediately. No more waiting until it becomes available. We guess that’s just how MyPhone rolls. Check out the full specs, price and launch details below!
Its that dreaded time of the year once again. That time of year when our collective e-wallet confidence shrink, become emaciated, and we become self-conscious of ourselves in front of the e-mirror. What time is it then, you ask? Well its time for the Steam Thanksgiving sale, of course. The yearly tradition of massive video game discounts on the Steam PC online distribution platform. And its not just one day, the deals last for an entire week. So put those Credit Cards, PayPals, MOL Points (more on this later), and Steam Wallet Cards away. Because its almost impossible to resist buying things like Skyrim for $7.49 (PHP 327); Walking Dead for $6.24 (PHP 272); Sleeping Dogs for $4.99 (PHP 218); and much more. Worse, this is just day one – and experience tells us the best is yet to come. Either way, mouse over the jump to find out which deals are available today.
We love the Cloudfone Thrill 530qx – it’s a great phone with a huge battery, great camera, and competitive specs with but one main issue – the inability to have large app data to the SD card. (Mostly affects games from Gameloft.) Surprisingly though, in a rare but welcome action by the local brand, Cloudfone has heard consumer feedback and has taken action to fix it with an update. In an post made a few hours ago on their Facebook fan page, the company has announced an update for the large-battery phone that will bring it to Version 5 from Version 4.
Gionee, an international brand that has only been in the local space for a year or so, is definitely moving much faster than the local competition these days. That’s because we can easily recall its rise from Single-Core, Dual, to Quad in just the past year here in the Philippines. They’re not stopping there though, as they could be the first brand here (aside from major international brands) to bring a Snapdragon 800-powered LTE-capable Android phone, the Gionee Elife E7. Surprisingly, this phone was just unveiled in China yesterday and even international blogs are still catching up. Today though, the local Philippine fanpage of Gionee posted a picture asking their readers if they’re excited for the device. That’s probably a clear indication that they’re planning on bringing it here, but when? We don’t know. Either way, check out the E7’s specs and our estimated price below.
Pardon us if this review is up a little bit late. But if you think about it, its never too late to get a discounted Quad-Core smartphone with an HD screen this Holiday Season, right? (Hah, that was a pretty good excuse, wasn’t it?) The phone in question is currently one of the more affordable HD androids around with a 5.7” screen – the Cherry Mobile Blaze 2.0. While it debuted at a PHP 9,499 price point – a shade higher than the popular Omega HD 2.0 from the same company – both devices are now quite discounted at PHP 7,999. Yup, that’s 8 grand for either phone that packs a 1.2Ghz Quad-Core Processor, HD display, 12MP BSI Camera, and the like. So should you check out the Blaze 2.0 over the OHD 2.0? Watch our review below to find out!
Cloudfone is at it again. Following the success of their Thrill 430x’s large 4160mAh battery, they’ve introduced a new, larger battery into a nice 5.3” phablet – the Thrill 530qx. With a 1.2Ghz Quad-Core processor, 12MP Camera, and Dual-SIM functionalities, the new longevity king is here and we’re lucky enough to have tried one out in our review. The verdict? You’ll find out in our video below!
MyPhone’s new direction with their Android device lineup has been fairly interesting thus far: innovating in certain areas like aluminum body designs; exclusive apps like TARA; and the like. That seems to be the case with their incoming new phone which, basing from this post from their fan page, will be launching this coming Friday (November 29, 2013). According to most online rumblings, the new device is going to be called the MyPhone Iceberg Mini. From what we can tell, its looking to be a rebrand of the Micromax Canvas Turbo – a 5.0” Full HD phone with 1.5Ghz Quad-Core Processor. Price is rumored online to be at PHP 12,388. We’ll find out for sure on Friday, but in the meantime we can give you a more complete list of specs basing from the Micromax version of the device.
We suppose its only fair that the company that started the netbook form factor essentially put the final nail on its coffin. That’s what we think the recently-launched Asus Transformer Book T100 does – phase out the cumbersome, sluggish mini-computers we know as netbooks and replace it with its new hotness. Packing a 4th Generation Quad-Core Atom processor, 10.1” IPS touchscreen, 64GB eMMC storage, detachable keyboard, and full Windows 8.1 functionality, the T100 looks to be ushering a new era of the low cost portable productivity laptop. Priced at only PHP 23,995, its definitely poised to do just that. If any of that sound like something interesting to you, then check out our launch preview video and its specs below!
A few days ago, an e-mail came down from the interwebs about three new tablets from Cherry Mobile – namely the Fusion Breeze, Fusion Storm, and Superion Explorer. All three tablets are priced at under PHP 5,000 and might prove to be a great gift item choice for the most frugal of aunts and uncles. The e-mail doesn’t specify some of the specs of the devices though, so we’ll try to be on a lookout for more complete info in the days to come. Either way, check out the prices and all of our known information about them below!
