    Nakuha ko to sa Sun postpaid plan 350. Okay naman sya, di pa naman naglalag kahit sobrang dami ko nang apps. Ayos lang din ang design, mukhang mamahalin. Yung camera naman maganda yung rear cam pero yung front cam medyo malabo kaya yung rear cam pa rin gamit ko pag-selfie. lol. Medyo di rin maganda yung touchscreen feature nya pero oksy lang din naman. PINAKA THE BEST FEATURE NYA yung internet speed, umaabot hanggang 21mbps. Di ko alam kung sa phone pa ba yun o sa sim card ko na pero sun at smart prepaid lang naman gamit ko. Yung smart sa pag internet at yung sun sa pag call at text kasi nga nakaplan ako. Trust me guys, mabilis talaga mag internet dito. Nakakanood ako ng movie sa youtube nang walang lag. Yung battery lang talaga ang downside nito. Di aabot ng isang araw lalo na pag mahilig ka sa games at internet surfing. I suggest magdownload na lang kayo ng task killers at battery saver. Babaan nyo rin ang brightness para lalong makatipid sa battery. Overall “okay” naman sya sa price line nya. P.S. Yung speak-to-text feature nya ang isa sa paborito ko ;) Sana makatulong kahit papano yung review ko sa mga may balak bumili nito :D

    I heard that MT6572 comes with Mali 400 GPU. I don’t know if its the under clocked Mali though. The breakthrough on this processor is in manufacturing which made this cheaper to produce and sell. Nothing a buyer will benefit on since you can buy MT6577 and MT8589M phones at about the same price. It also have the 28nm technology so battery consumption should be about the same as older model with the same 28nm.

    Nothing “magical” about 512MB of RAM. :(

    Only feedback from actual owners who’ve already had the chance to use it over several days can tell us whether the OT Magic can indeed last the day without a big batt like JLo’s.

    Before complaining read first. It’s low-power integrated SOC. So it’s probably a new SOC that’s a batt economizer, that doesn’t need a big batt.

    almost same specs with the old CM flare but looks like an SIII mini. btw the old glory 2 with almost the same specs can handle jellybean smoothly.

    motto of the day:
    “be satisfied of what you have and what you can afford” ;-p

      ABUZALZAL LOGIC:

      low-spec phone: walang kwenta, boring, laggy etc..
      hi-spec phone: it’s good but (insert higher-end device here) is much better, i’d rather get that than this..

      Predictable na trolling techniques mo totoy.

    • Avatar for abuzalzal abuzalzal says:

      You are stupid and illogical

      It is always wiser to spend more on a phone that *works* than being tricked into buying something super cheap that barely works

      Do you even have ANY idea how 512 mb RAM warks on a JB platform? you bumming idiot

      I’m not trolling….I’m just expressing my strong disgust to these OEMs (and clueless people like YOU) that claim 512mb RAM is good enough

    • Avatar for al al says:

      Read folks, it says low power integrated SOC so it probably doesn’t a big batt to power this fone.
