Just a few weeks after they released the Magnum S octa-core phone, Cherry Mobile continues to break new barriers with currently the new most affordable octa-core country plus another addition to their dual-core handset line-up
First, the Cherry Mobile Pulse Mini which has an 1.3 Ghz dual-core chipset with 4 inch IPS WVGA display. What’s bang for the buck is the HSPA+ connectivity and has 512 MB RAM and 4 GB ROM. This device costs at P2,699
The more interesting news when I saw this at the newly-built Cherry Mobile online video channel (which is our source for this news plus this is only video so far that was uploaded) was the announcement of Cherry Mobile Pulse. It is Android Kitkat ready smartphone with a 1.7 Ghz octa-core chipset, 13 MP and 5 MP combo shooters and double tap to wake feature. What’s jaw dropping? It will be out for only P6,499
I hope that they will also reveal the battery capacity of the 2 phones. No info yet on the availability but I am looking forward for the release of Pulse.
