ASUS Chromebook CM14 announced ASUS ROG unveils Strix OLED XG34WCDMS, Strix XG129C monitors BPI partners with Robinsons Retail for barcode cash deposits in stores DJI Osmo Mobile 8P globally launched Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 5, Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 announced

Cherry Mobile has a new phone that’s capable of handling 3 SIM cards at the same time called the Trident (Q300). Yes, this is probably the first triple-SIM phone to be marketed in the Philippines — and it’s got a TV tuner too.

Designed to look like a cross between the Nokia E72 and the BlackBerry Curve, Cherry Mobile’s Trident phone was launched just last week (July 1) with a suggested retail price of Php6,450.

Cherry Mobile Q300 Trident
* Triple SIM, Triple Standby
* Quad Band GSM
* 2.46â€ TFT LCD
* 2MP camera
* WiFi
* Analog TV with Record
* FM Radio with Record
* up to 4GB on microSD
* Bluetooth

It’s got an optical trackpad too, just like the ones from BlackBerry. All 3 SIM cards are active but only two are MMS-capable and can connect to GPRS. Not sure what the battery life would be like though {via PTB}.

Im looking to buy a tri-sim phone. Ive seen the Trident in one of the Mall shops here but I found out about the Torque Trinity. Its an earlier launched a Tri-Sim phone by Torque. A blog I found said it has Java and can access Gmail and major social networking sites. Does the Cherry Trident do this too?

Would appreciate it if you could write a post comparing the two.

Looking forward to that! Thanks!^_^

Hey Abe, you spelled Nokia wrong. Nice looking phone IMHO… I just hate the sound of fixing this phone in english. You just popped the Cherry didn’t you? lol!

Loong Tang · 16 years ago

Most of us are still looking for a wide features (3g, High MP, OS) but this phone is just 6k (not bad for others), for me this is a good phone and will use it for smart, globe and pldt landline,.. walang perfect na phone sa ngayon kahit kaya nilang gumawa pagsamasamahin….

minnie me · 16 years ago

i think cherry is indeed a china phone. hello? can you look at their phone designs??? total knock off of nokia and samsung phones!

mint · 16 years ago

why everyone claims to be the first one to release a 3-sim in market…torque also did the same claim last may…hahaha.

but it is quite promising for a 3-sim to be out in the market today…let us cross our fingers for the next 4-Sim phone to be out in the coming months…

mark · 16 years ago

tri sim = overkill LOL

jjb · 16 years ago

nice ah.
mukhang okay ung design and optical trackpad as navi key, not bad for 6k+

markmarcelo0210 · 16 years ago

I super love the slogan! Ok to ha… TRIPLE SIM!

buknoy · 16 years ago

Torque also has one, and the specs are very much the same. Anyone knows kung alin ang mas ok na brand? torque or cherry?

Arvee · 16 years ago

…then bundle it with 3 sims, priceless.

Kinny · 16 years ago

Can’t wait to see my/phone’s version of tri sim.

Adrian · 16 years ago

wow cool phone.

JP · 16 years ago

@teknisyan, ummm:

*no sent items folder
*no multitasking.

But this is a great phone, considering the Wi-fi capability.

Could someone confirm if Cherry Mobile handsets aren’t just rebranded china phones or is it just like EMAXX that “rebrands” J&W motherboards.

Teknisyan · 16 years ago

Aha… that’s for the trident name… qwerty phone, wifi, tv, and of course triple SIM!! what more can you ask for?!

limuelG · 16 years ago

cherry mobile,, parang china phone lang yan,,, bilis pa ma drain ng battery……

IC DeaDPiPoL · 16 years ago

The specs are nice but why the 4gig limit?

Ang Maniniyot · 16 years ago

Ayos at may WiFi siya. Sana may A-GPS na rin pero malupit to. Kaso parang hindi mo kakailanganin ang 3 sim cards at a time eh. :D

lalin · 16 years ago

looks tempting but I got doubts with quality… and esp battery life.

skagen · 16 years ago

nice! 3 sim in one! will wait for the review.

lolipown · 16 years ago

cherry mobile is known for their dual sim and now triple sim feature… but the media features of their phone sucks…

1. u cant change the themes
2. u cant receive mms eventhough its already activated by ur network provider
3. the camera resolution isnt really megapixel… its still vga

RickLabrador · 16 years ago

This attempt is nice and its got wifi too. But what about the perf? Is it fast or fast enough for a good web browsing experience? And the built? Hope its not cheap plastic, though I cant expect too much from this price range, good to know their keeping up with the times in terms of feat. Its the hardware that concerns me. A good buy though for those who prefer affordability.

bat disabled ang site ng cherrymobile?

roan carl · 16 years ago

now we dont have to carry more than 3 phones hehehe but it think its realy practical and the price is good, how about the quality of this phone

boboyco · 16 years ago

@abeolandres Wow! That’s Globe, Smart and Sun in one package.

Malcoxx · 16 years ago

This is cool. I love the fact that technology is “mass” friendly nowadays. The price is very cheap and is more convenient than carrying three 1xxx.xx phones.

Only caveat that I have with these phones are the GUI. I am a visual person and improving the GUI and screen quality will make me a sure buyer. I understand that it will increase the price, but an option would be great. I don’t mind paying 10k if the device is worth it.

Good job Cherry, more great products like this to come!
