This is currently the phone I am using everyday for the past few weeks, and I must say, it's pretty handy! It's a bit too big for your pocket, and your hands, and it's pretty hard typing using only one hand, but you could always turn it horizontally, to give you that wide, gameboy feel. What I don't like about it, is that it's too colorful! It almost feels like it was designed for the opposite sex! (as you can see below, mine is bright yellow!). But there's always the silicone casing which you could buy off the "bangketa" and cover it up. The sales lady even offered me a silicone case by saying "Sir, may black silicone case po kami para sa phone mo, para hindi naman masyadong masakit sa mata." (Sir, we have a black silicone case for your phone, so it won't hurt the eyes so much.) Yes, she actually said that! And yes, I did buy the silicone case, to no longer inflict harm to innocent victims whose eyes got teary when they accidentally glanced at my bright yellow colored phone.
Anyway, back to the review... Let's go to Video Quality:
With an HD resolution of 1280*720, the videos seem crisp and clear.
Sound, on the other hand is pretty good. It's loud and crisp!
It comes with Wi-fi and Bluetooth... (weh, di nga? as if devices like these won't come with these kind of package? )
Camera: Picture quality is awesome! Both for the front and back. Make sure there's not too much movement when taking night shots though. The flash is really bright! And you can take up to 99 sequence photos!
Browsing: Pretty much with every device, browsing speed always depend on internet speed. The faster your ISP, the faster you browse. Youtube, Facebook, and those other stuff...
Apps: As of now, the apps I have are as identical as those that I have on my Cherry Mobile tablet. Except maybe for the games, which I currently only have four (4). Not to mention I do have Facebook, Skype, Twitter, 9gag, and some other apps that came pre-installed on the phone.
Battery Life: Due to the high specs of the phone, the battery drains pretty fast. On the pros- side, it will last for 8 hours or longer (on regular use). But one thing I noticed about it is that, at some point, it stays somewhere between 70% or 60% for a long time. I mean, when it's fully charged, it would go from 100% to 90% in a span of a few minutes, then from 90% to 80% in a few more minutes, but when it reaches 70%, it kinda just stays there for a few hours even when you're blasting on your music, browsing the internet, or even on a call. So that's pretty cool right there.
Antutu Benchmark:
Pretty awesome! I finally came with a "Good" remark on the Antutu Benchmark, with 18115 points! (see images below):
Overall Rating: 4.5 Stars!
I forgot to mention, does anyone need a Bloody Red Leather casing??? It came with the unit, and I don't think it would make a very good color combination. Imagine "Bright Yellow" and "Bloody Red" together??? It's like the Yellow Vs. Red (Cory vs. Marcos) era all over again!
