Telego Neptune unveiled, LTE-capable phone for P3999

Last year, Telego Philippines announced their first ever LTE-capable smartphone but based on my random visits in their stores, looks like it was only an announcement. New year 2016 and new brochure had uploaded a few days ago in their Facebook page and I saw something new.

BS Mobile Fire unboxing, first impressions, specs, price

First time that I'll gonna have some unboxing of an BS Mobile device at my hub. It is currently one of their few quad-core devices. Meet BS Mobile Fire.

These are the front and back views of the device. I really censored a part of the specs sheet as I got the real specs on this blog post. The box is quite presentable and nice.

The front has 2 MP secondary camera, 5 inch FWVGA display and standard Android capacitive buttons. Good thing that the screen protector is already installed. The back has 8 MP rear cam with flash, BS Mobile marking and single speaker. The rest of the specs include Android 4.2.2 Jellybean, 512 MB RAM, 4 GB ROM, 3G capable, 1.3 GHz Mediatek MT6582 quad-core processor, dual SIM (1 regular, 1 micro),  micro SD slot, Bluetooth, WiFi and 1,800 mAh removable Li-ioN battery. I noticed that both side have this "honeycomb" design and the form factor reminds me of some Samsung Android devices minus the trademark home button.

3.5 mm. audio jack at the top, micro USB slot and pin hole mic at the bottom.

 Volume rocker at the left, power/unlock button at the right

A glimpse if you'll remove the back cover of BS Mobile Fire.

The essentials include warranty paper, instruction guide, 1 ampere USB charger, flip cover, USB cable and earphones

I tried the flip cover on the phone and it fits perfectly.

For my first impressions, I found that the device has a surprising solid feel plus the durability of the back cover and flip cover are quite on the positive side. Switching apps are a-ok but not as fast as other counterparts with the same SoC and 1 GB RAM. Let's see if the BS Mobile Fire will fare will in my upcoming review soon. It currently has an SRP of Php 3,599 at BS Mobile stores and their number of online stores including one on Lazada Philippines.
