The Cherry Mobile Superion is a 7-inch Android tablet that could probably spoil the entry of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab with its uber-cheap price tag of Php19,990.

The Cherry Mobile Superion is the same Android tablet as the Viewsonic ViewPad 7 we blogged about here earlier (probably came from the same Chinese OEM).
Their Cherry Mobile Magnum HD is much more powerful than this. a beast of a phone that sports a 1GHz processor and a 4.1-inch WVGA (480 x 800-pixel) capacitive touch screen and goes for a reasonable price of P18,990.
Does this support AVI files for video playback?
If by chance you visit Singapore, you can get a 32gb ipad for P27k with a bonus ipad case.
This one looks good enough for a tablet. Surprisingly, the Magnum has higher specs than this tablet, save for the screen size.
This one also deserves a review badly :D
the specs and price are interesting, but what about build quality, stability and service?
800 x 480 yung display nito. galaxy tab 1024 x 600. big difference din yun.
if you want video check this link:

guys techpinas.com meron video nito p*%*
video calls pwede to perfect for globe supersurf50 via 3G
again like iPhone 4 u need 2 units of this to work
@Ugali and Opium Opinion
well the 23k ipad might be the 16GB wifi version, this has the bells and whistles of the galaxy tab minus the processor.
sana lang hindi cheap ang build quality nito.. kasi may promise siya e.. Although I can imagine the same with the Samsung Galaxy Tab. Hindi ko type yung feel ng Galaxy S e, plasticky, parang Samsung Jet.
wow walang nag-aaway dito! hehe
astig yan ah. pero sabi nga ni Opium Opinion, 23k lang ang ipad sa HK. hanap na lang ako na kakilalang pupunta dun para magpabili. :-)
want!
how bout the battery, external ports and memory?
Would the processor limit the usability of the unit when it comes to 3D games and other related apps? I’ve heard that the HTC Wildfire could not play a lot of 3D games for Android…
Guys, just check this link regarding this unit…

this is interesting.. altough the 600mhz might be a downer for some but tests ran using the froyo build shows improvement in all areas so this might be a good thing.
we must not forget that this will support FLASH!
anyway this is an interesting entry for the tablet sector. Cherry should partner up with a carrier to further subsidize the price. Sun should get this, para mas maraming units ang mabenta.
The only caveat ata dito is the build quality.. but for the price maybe ok na rin.
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
its advertised on major papers right now :)
the screen is not resistive. it is capacitive and it supports multi-touch to allow pinch zooming.
if there is one thing I’ve learned about processors it is that clock speed is nothing,.. what if its 600MHz? the firmware Froyo can handle it very nicely. Android is not like Windows that needs a lot of CPU to run fast.. check this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megahertz_myth and this one too: http://www.computer-hardware-explained.com/megahertz-myth.html
This is just like the camera/megapixel myth. Personally, I’m excited about this.. :)
Wait for Yugatech’s review before buying a test unit hehe
I’d like to run Jolicloud on this unit hehe
