Ainol Novo 7 Flame lands with Php9,999 price tag

Ainol keeps of churning out more 7-inch tablets. The latest one we spotted is the Ainol Novo 7 Flame which sells locally for about Php9,999.

The Novo 7 Flame comes with a dual-core 1.5GHz processor, 1GB RAM and a 7-inch HD 720p IPS LCD display. The Novo7 Flame is similar to the $139 Novo 7 Crystal we posted earlier this month but that one does not have the HD display resolution of the flame.

Ainol Novo 7 Flame specs:
7-inch IPS display @ 1280×800 pixel
AMLogic AML8726-M6 1.5GHz dual-core
Mali 400 dual-core GPU
1GB DDR3
16GB internal storage
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
5MP rear camera
2MP front-facing camera
5000mAh Li-Ion battery
Android 4.0.3

The Novo 7 Flame comes with a metallic chassis instead of the usual polycarbonate body of its other siblings. The 5000mAh internal battery should also last it around 7 hours, maybe more.

We’re not sure if the Novo 7 Flame is official (Cherry Mobile has some sort of co-branded partnership with them) but the ones sold at Villman puts the price at Php9,999.

    I got the Ainol Fire (Chinese version) which is basically the same as the Flame (international version) for P7,500.00

    I’ve been using it for a month, and I’d say it’s really value for money. I’m a happy owner. :)

    =======
    to answer a few of the above questions posted on the comments, the Fire has Bluetooth, microSD card slot and mini-HDMI port. And, oh, I’m using Skype on this.

    It’s not perfect, with some minor flaws, but for it’s price, I’m not complaining! hehe

      Hi Lawrence.

      Thank you for the info.
      Could you please specify what are those minor flaws that you have observed, just curious and need it to help decide which 7 inch tab to buy. Also would like to know if it has issues with app/games compatibility with google play (especially for HD and other high graphics games). Thank you very much

    Samsung and the other key players should now lower their price or come out with new and better features/apps or face extinction. I wonder if the after sales support of this tablet is up to par with Samsung, Asus, etc.

    I was planning to wait for the Nexus 7’s price to go down, but this model of Ainol seems better in terms of value for money.
    For me:

    Why Nexus 7?
    1. it’s Asus and google
    2. might have a better build quality
    3. quad-core
    4. Jellybean out of the box

    Why Flame?
    1. has most of what the Nexus 7 is missing (expandable memory, 5MP rear camera, USB on-the-go, FLASH support)
    2. even more affordable (16GB flame vs 8GB nexus)
    3. 5,000 mAh battery

    I had an Ainol Aurora before and it’s ok for its price, but I wish I had at least a dual-core so I sold it. What I also hate is its lack of bluetooth (transfering photos, videos and documents from my phone and laptop for presentations). And now, all of these were solved, with almost the SAME PRICE! :)

    plus the bonus of metal back and the rear camera with autofocus. :)

    Now, I’m decided! :)

    Curiously, a price point too close to the nexus 7/kindle fire hd market, which offer much better quality and specs.

    It’s actually been around for a short while. Saw a lot of Sulit sellers selling them for about 8k. Most are pre-orders/reservations, but there are some legit sellers that already have them on stock.
