After a very long wait, Dell Philippines has finally launched its very own Android tablet in the local market — the Dell Streak 5.
Dell Streak 5 specs:
480 x 800 pixels, 5.0 inches TFT capacitive touchscreen
Gorilla Glass display
1 GHz Scorpion processor (Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon)
Adreno 200 GPU
16 GB storage, 512 MB ROM, 512 MB RAM
up to 32Gb via microSD
HSDPA 7.2 Mbps, HSUPA 5.76 Mbps
Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, Wi-Fi hotspot
Bluetooth 2.0 w/ A2DP
5MP autofocus camera w/ dual-LED flash
720p video recording
GPS w/ aGPS
Li-Ion battery 1530mAh
The demo units we tried out last night were running Android 2.2 Froyo. Suggested retail price of the Dell Streak 5 is Php27,000.
Announced early last year, the Dell Streak has been selling in the grey market for as high as Php35,000 for several months now. I wonder why it took them so long to bring it to the Philippines. I say better late than never.
Poor Specs?? specs for early 2010 smart phones hahaha
buy cherrymobile nalang 2.2 din. haha
Cherrymobile? what is this… something you can eat at lunch? hahaha Rubbish gadgets
*checks calendar*
This isn’t a joke right?
So last year and @ a very preposterous price point. Good luck Dell.
Too expensive than the Ipad and Samsung Galaxy Tab. Sorry Dell time is up!
A lit too late?
Masyado namang maliit to para maging tablet. Magulang lang to ng PSP sa laki, ah. Sige, no thanks na lang. hanap lang ko iba.
Another DOA if the price is 12k i might reconsider buying it. Galaxy tab is a good buy instead of this overprice gadget.
Yep, it’s a “tablet-phone”. That’s why you can’t just compare it to other tablets. It also explains the higher price.
Really? This is a tablet phone like Samsung Tab? But then again, it’s too expensive. Well I hope they could compete by lowering their price.
Too expensive for too small a screen and too backward an OS!!! DO NOT BUY!!!
Isn’t this officially a smartphone and not a tablet?
Too expensive, not affordable. still prefers apple. http://mconquers.blogspot.com
Nothing special. Poor timing. It only shows how detached Dell is from the Philippine market.
well, this could translate to zero sales as galaxy tab wifi only bgn @16k with 1 year warranty from samsung verified at greenhills as of yesterday w/c I even did not buy in anticipation of Ipad2 availabilty in the Philippines
Yeah Right, iPad2 is worth waiting for!
The saying “better late than never” is so passe now when it comes to technology. “Better never if late” is more like it.
Best example ito, at 27K, this is way more expensive than current and upcoming tabs. I don’t even know any significant reason why anyone should buy this.
Probably some die hard fans of DELL…if there such a thing…perhaps. :-)
walang bibili nito.
5″ screen, alanganin.
price, (super) mahal!
hw specs, not that good.
os, outdated for tablets
I still prefer Samsung Tab…may phone na, may tablet pa…pede pang pang text hehehehe
Well, Just enjoy your sluggish device though.. =D
FYI, Dell Streak 5 is a phone too. It can make calls and text messages just like Galaxy Tab.

So last year, i wonder if their going to launch the dell venue here. Still happy with my galaxy s and looking forward for optimus2x
why only now when i bought ipad2? pfff….
iPad 2’s better in terms of pricing and feature set. 5″ is just too small for tablets.
you can buy a time machine so that you can turn back time and buy a dell streak 5 instead of ipad 2. just a suggestion
This device is so expensive than other great tablets on the market
apparently it was launched last april 7 but units will be AVAILABLE two weeks after..you can add another thousand year ( translate to 2 weeks)..
Well, i want this like a million years ago(translate to few months) but now that there’s a landslide of tablets with better specs and lower price, I’ll pass on this
