Coming off a successful launch held at SM North[2] back in May (which introduced us to the popular Starmobile Knight[3]), local brand Starmobile held a launch this week to introduce their new lineup of Android devices – 4 new affordable aluminum-built tablets; 5 new phablets (Diamond line); and 3 new stylish phones. Their new flagship this time is a compliment to the original Knight and is called the Starmobile Muse – which packs a 1.5Ghz Quad-Core Processor, 5.0” FullHD Display, 18MP BSI Camera + Dual LED Flash, and a new 8MP wide angle BSI Front Camera with a LED Flash. Its looking like the new turf war is the so-called “selfie” shots (front camera) and Starmobile is coming out swinging. Check out all of the spec sheets and watch our preview video of those devices after the jump!

Some of these devices are available now and the rest should be available in the next coming weeks (certainly not before Christmas, more like first week of December) so check them out at your nearest Starmobile retailers soon! (Or you can wait for some reviews from us! If they lend us a review unit that is.)
Note: Starmobile will also include a new specialized app on all their new Android devices called the Starmobile Sync. Its basically an automated app that can transfer your Contacts, Messages, Bookmarks, and Calendar entries from your old phone to your new Starmobile device. Its pretty nifty, and we’ll have a separate video feature regarding that, so stay tuned!
