Cherry Mobile Candy, Candy Chat: Cheapest Androids

Listen to article

Cosmic Technologies (Cherry Mobile) is once again challenging the Android market by introducing the cheapest Android handsets yet — the Cherry Mobile Candy and Candy Chat — at Php3,699.

These units are really cheap so we shouldn’t expect a lot from them. I guess the only reason for introducing them is that more folks can now afford to buy an Android smartphone.

On the other hand, these are dual-SIM phones too.

Cherry Mobile Candy specs:
2.8″ resistive screen @ 240×320 pixels
Dual-SIM, Dual-standby
MediaTek 416MHz processor
256MB ROM
128MB RAM
up to 16GB via microSD
WiFi 802.11 b/g
GPRS/EDGE
Bluetooth 2.1
1.3MP camera
FM radio
Android Froyo 2.2
Retail price: Php3,699

Cherry Mobile Candy Chat specs:
2.4″ resistive screen @ 240×320 pixels
Full qwerty keypad
Dual-SIM, Dual-standby
MediaTek 416MHz processor
256MB ROM
128MB RAM
up to 16GB via microSD
WiFi 802.11 b/g
GPRS/EDGE
Bluetooth 2.1
1.3MP camera
FM radio
Android Froyo 2.2
Retail price: Php3,699

Note: Photos to follow. Still looking for a CD drive to copy the press materials.

What Cherry Mobile did here was take their really affordable handsets and instead of putting the usual dumb-phone OS (those Java-type operating systems), they opted for the more popular one and installed Android in them.

nakakapag wi-fi ako sa candy stable naman siya. wala pa naman problema. Overall, maganda yung phone para sa mga nag hahanap ng murang android. Talagang ito yung magiging “intro” mo sa android world. may china phone nga ako tumagal ng 4 years, napamana ko pa sa kapatid ko. Nasa gumagamit yan guys. Peace out. :D

anu ba yan? madaling masira ang gamit kapag hindi masinop ang gumagamit.. kahit anung gadget naman basta hindi ka marunong mag alaga, eh madaling masira. Nasa gumagamit yan minsan kung paano niya aalagaan mga gamit niya. Meron akong Cherry Mobile Candy. Masaya naman ako sa performance. I can install apps and games galing sa market at kahit galing sa black market. Kung talagang android fan kayo eh dapat alam niyo kung paanu ioptimized yung mga phone niyo.

you know guys the difference between cherry mobile to branded is how it was designed, ang binabayaran natin ay yung workmanship ng product.

May kanya kanyang trade secret mga manufacturers kahit China lahat galing, ang nagdesign ng mga yan either Americans or Japanese sa mga Branded at mga Chinese sa mga Entry Level na brands, na kung minsan madaming patent ang nasasagasaan na di nila binabayaran.

Think also of the quality of the mobile phone kung gaano siya magtatagal sa price tag niya. The more expensive, the more robust hardware it has.

The Chat’s qwerty makes up for the weakest spec point (small resistive display). Given not to have to deal with typing onto a microscopic resistive softkey my stress level with this level of phone would be a lot lower. The non-qwerty Candy is total fail from the start though. 2.8″ QVGA screens are only barely tolerable if they’re capacitive.

i agree with jomar regarding contacts! kaya lang sana hindi to katulad nung nagamit kong cherry mobile dati, sakit sa tenga kapag medyo matagal mo ginamit pang tawag kaya napilitan akong mag dual sim ng samsung, ayun mas malinaw tawag at di ganun kainit…

sa ganyang specs medyo ok na rin for basic android stuffs like those to do lists apps, camera apps (although di ako sigurado dito) baka nga mas malakas pa to sa ginagamit kong telepono ngayon eh hehe, 160MB lang kase memory nung sa akin. (galaxy spica). sana nilagyan nila ng gps, malamang magiging mabili sa mga siklista at runner kung may gps to para malagyan ng endomondo. so gps tapos backup battery sa cdr king para tumagal sa ride…

Naiisip ko tuloy, malamang yung mga rejected units ang kinukuha ng Cherry Mobile at inaayos na lang nila.

Dual SIM : Check
Android : Check
EDGE / GPRS : Check
Qwerty : Check
Google Sync : Hopefully Check

Already have a better Android phone, just want another dual SIM phone that I will use for call/text. The Android/Qwerty/EDGE is definitely a major plus for me. At last I can finally sync my contacts on all my phones without too much of a hassle. At that price point, you just cant expect too much form it. I just hope that the battery life is acceptable :D

Kahit sa ibang bansa meron ding nagtitipid, meron ding barat, mas lalo na di2 sa pinas. Kaya nga gumagawa ng smartphones ang cherry mobile kc un ang uso ngayon, at hindi lahat ng pinoy mkkbili ng samsung nexus or htc mozart. Kung budget phone ang hanap mo eh meron ang cherry mobile nun, madami, at hindi naman kulelalat pagdating sa specs, merong Magnum 2x ang CM, dual processor yan, at nasa 15k lng, meron Magnum HD, 1Ghz processor yan, napakalakas na nyan. Kung bbili k ng high end branded smatphones na dual proce sigurado butas bulsa mo. Kaya binibenta nla yan ng mura dahil kaya ng pinoy bilhin, halata mang puro plastic ang labas eh kaya namang lumaban sa ibang brands ang specs. Dapat proud kayo sa CM kc kahit na mura at least may ibubuga, kahit na mukhang madaling masira eh lagyan mo na lng jelly case para hindi masira kapag na laglag. Nasa pag iingat parin ng may-ari ang sukatan.

@aj, yup nasa gumagamit din ang pagiingat, pero ang mga products kasi ng cherry mobile kadalasan ang sira eh software, kabibili mo lang tapos paguwi mo at magamit ng saglit malalaman mong ang dami palang bugs (ex. di nakakarecieve ng text yung isang sim card, naghahang, nagrereset, nawawala mga text, yung wifi di gumagana, etc). ang masama pa nito pag ibinalik mo di na nila papalitan, ipapadala daw sa service center nila at maghihintay ka ng sobrang tagal para lang maayos sa sobrang dami ng bulok na cp na binenta nila. magsearch ka sa google malalaman mo kung gaano kadami ang nagrereklamo sa mga products ng cherry mobile. ang cherry mobile pinoy company nga, pero nanloloko naman at nanggugulang sa mga kapwa pinoy nila. mas mabuti pang bumili na lang ng produkto ng mga foreign companies.

The problem w/ android is that it needs a powerful processor just to make it bearably smooth. Anything under 600mhz will just frustrate you with laggy UI, frequent force closes, unresponsive screens, & phantom taps (like the cm orbit which I threw in a fit techie rage). Low resolution screens will also keep you from most good apps/games in the market. RAM & ROM also affects this OS’ usability.
For people thinking of getting these cheap androids, take it from a fellow fandroid who once sacrificed specs for the price tag, DON’T. You’ll end up wasting 3k, 6k, or 10k. After that, you’ll still need to buy another phone because you threw that piece of crap out of frustration.

To answer your question glen, yes, the OS’ you mentioned work smoother on lower specd devices. Not to mention the need for software optimization. So far, the smoothest low spec android I’ve tested is the 800mhz galaxy ace (hence my “no to 600mhz & below” opinion). I tried out a couple of Xperias today & was quite happy with how smooth they were (arc, mini). The galaxy note was not as smooth as I had hoped. The homescreen transition animation still had minimal lags. More so when I filled the homescreens w/ widgets. The htc sensation was even worse. My rooted desire hd was way smoother than either dual cores. So I guess you have a point. CPU speed isn’t everything. But it does play a big role.

Oh, another thing, you might want to try keeping your temper in check. It just confirms which of us is the real moron, idiot, spoiled brat :-)

for the price only 3k+ pesos good value to. Yung specs oo mababa kung i compare mo sa mga 10k.and up phones. At syempre hindi mo pwedeng i install dito at gamitin ang lahat ng android apps and games. Kung merong 10k app and games sa android mga 5k lang dun ang pwede at di.rin.pwede mag install ng marami. Pero yung mga simple apps and games pwedeng pwede dito! Pwede ka maglaro ng chess,word games,scrabble at mga apps na dictionary, alarm clock, memopad . Pwede ka din gumawa o pagawa ng custom apps para sa company nyo like payroll!

At P3,699 ANDROID you cant go wrong. most associate android to “If it can play ANGRY BIRDS”… android is so much more than just playing angry birds, meaning you can use the Android for social networking (FB, Twitter, YM, etc) or meesaging apps like Viber, YM…etc. the Android Experience on the social networking side alone is already worth it. I am sure the 416mhz processor would do just fine. but remember at 3,699 you are still getting a Smartphone which has access to thousand of apps, so im sure you can find an app that suits the hardware. Right now for under 4k price range what do you get? hmmm not so smart phones!

i find it stupid that there are people who keeps on bringing the efforts of those not so ‘better’ brands to have a piece of the ‘market’.

i agree to those who give such gadgets a chance for a review. (thanks sir Yuga! XD).

Obviously, this kinds of phones may not outrun those of Samsung Androids once nor from other Android carriers, THERE ARE MADE AVAILABLE NOT FOR THOSE WHO CAN AFFORD THE EXPENSIVE ONCE BUT RATHER TO THOSE WHO CAN’T! so hands-off WELL-OFFS!.

i’ll find it exhilarating seeing two people in the mall, a rich one and a tambay (minimum-wage-earner-hardly-afford-3xaday-meal) using the same expensive phones!. o diba, ewan ko lang kung hindi maiinis yung rich one?! XD

anyways, i dont see that it may hurt if i buy my lil’ sibling such gadgets to have the android experience. dahil for sure, its either, mawawala lang nila yung phone or mababasag ang screen, you know kids, they are just so lovable! XD

One question though, sir yuga. given the specs, how many decent game apps can we in stall to still have a decent run? for sure my siblings will be eager to install many.

thanks thanks much.

and PS, to those haters, CHILL!

despite the low speed I believe it’s workable. I’ve been underclocking my processor from 600 down to 328Mhz and is still functional for regular messaging albeit installing 3rd party launchers and extra widgets will really slow down the phone. The only question is how much memory will it have available off a freshly booted phone. If its 26~60mb then its workable albeit it won’t be able to run Angry Birds decently.

Hope Cherry will release these phones rooted

Ganito kasi yan. Many (not all) of those ‘haters’ of budget phones that attempt to put the Android experience w/in reach of the masses are afflicted with elitist/exclusivist mentality.

Having paid a small fortune for their high-end phones, they feel entitled to exclusivity. They bristle at the thought of the masses partaking in the Android experience, kahit pa ‘crippled’ lang yung experience.

They’re compelled to belittle & insult these sub-4K phones for not having the same specs, feature set & build quality as their ‘status symbol’ phones that cost them an arm & a leg.
