Bakit kaya kulang kulang ang Ads ng cherry mobile…ni walang nakalagay kung ilang RAM which is an important thing para makapag-decide ang mga consumers to go for a product.
Malamang, it is not worth mentioning.
kaya nde na nilagay ang amount of RAM.
for sure nasa 256mb 50 412 mb lang RAM nyan kaya sobrang mura!
Mapapa-mura ka nyan sa sobrang bagal! LOL
*512 mb RAM
Awts. Kabibili lang ng kaibigan ko ng Omega Icon para sa anak niya last week. I guess i have to tell him the bad news, hehehe…
Same thing happened when I bought Omega HD2.0 for 8999 just to find out that a week after they adjusted the price to 7999. That’s the problem here in the Philippines. In other countries, there’s 1 month replace and price adjust policy. If the item you bought had a sale or price drop within a month then you are entitled to get the price difference back. Tried this policy in Canada when I bought a netbook for $299 then 2 weeks later it was on sale for $249. Got my cash back.
according to this site, MSM812 supports only a 8-megapixel camera..Bakit ung s Omega Icon 13 Megapixel…Hmmm, smell fishy ang CM ah…They use 13-Megapixel of camera as their advantage for marketing or advertising their products but the chipset used supports only 8-megapixel..

Ayos! Magiging available price n b ito sa lhat ng cm store?:)
Kung hindi magbababa ng price ng ganito ang CM ay lalamunin sila ng mga branded phones. Dapat available kaagad yan. Nice yung flare 3 at icon.
