It’s my first time to unbox and to give my first impressions to one of the most aggressive local mobile brands for this year, SKK Mobile. As my first treat, I have their newest Android phone with analog TV, the SKK Mobile Charm 2
This is the box which I expected to have a dominant blue color on the background. You can check the key specs at our photo.Here is the front and back views of the phone. One of the plus points for me is the dual front speakers which are beneficial both for mobile TV viewing and listening to music without the the stock earphones. I discovered that the pin hole was hidden near the lower right corner section based on my usual sensors testing. The back is between the glossy and the matte feel as it doesn’t give that much finger print magnet.
The top and bottom views of the phone. Bottom goes nothing as the 3.5 mm. audio jack is at the top portion. You wonder, where’s the micro USB port
The micro USB port is at the left portion which I’m not a fan as it reminds me of those old school feature phones. The right part has the retractable mobile TV antenna, power unlock button and volume rocker.
Here are my shots underneath the device. You can see the 2 regular sim slots both on 2G only and the micro SD slot. A bit of a surprise for me as it got 1,500 maH removable battey for it’s size which is important as mobile TV consumes that much battery but not as heavy as to really intensive gaming.
Here are the essentials inside the package. Another plus for me for the extra long micro USB to USB cord and stock earphones. A nice extra detail with the SKK Mobile branding at the USB end. The chrarger got a power of 650mA which is a bit higher as I already encountered entry-level Androids with 500mA charger. Good thing that SKK Mobile has also provided a screen protector which was already attached when I borrowed this review unit
That’s it for my unboxing and first impressions of the SKK Mobile Charm 2, stay tuned for the remainder of my review soon.
