Cherry Mobile is celebrating its 3rd year anniversary this August 15th so it’s holding a 1-day sale of its popular handset, the Dragon Phone W900.

Announced back in May, the W900 is one of the most popular Android handsets in Cherry Mobile’s line-up. It’s primarily because of the introductory price of Php9,999 (regular price was Php14,999).

This week, Cherry Mobile is dropping the price of the W900 to just Php5,999. But that’s just for one day only (August 15). You can grab one of them at any Cherry Mobile kiosks nationwide. We wrote a really long 3,500-word review (our longest review ever) of the CM W900 here.

is this etter than samsung galaxy y?

boku · 14 years ago

If you were to grab this smartphone in its promo price, then yes, it is better than Galaxy Y.

If you were to grab in its regular price, it still a “yes, it is better than Galaxy Y”.

Luckily, I was able to grab one last Wednesday during the promo event and I can definitely say that this is definitely a big bang for the buck.

Just installed a custom rom on it and it runs better and faster now. Cherry Mobile W900 rocks!

Levz · 14 years ago

paturo naman ng ics update. i called the service center pero sabi wala pa daw sila update. ill be leaving the country in about 2 weeks… sana pa update ko muna. thanks

Tyler · 14 years ago

Same w/ Ronald, just purchased my 1st smartphone in replacement of my 7 yr.old Nokia. Unfortunately for me i only got that 4gb and low quality screen protector.

I agree w/ you Sonofa re: ICS upgrade, i asked the service center they told me they still don’t have the ICS upgrade for the W900. Please post when and where it is available. Thanks in advance!

Sonofa · 14 years ago

Madami naman kisoks ang cherry mobile… Pumunta ako sa maliliit na Puregold at nakabili in less than 10 min…
Di siya magiging kasing gulo ng LG kasi walang time limit at masmadami ang outlets ng cherry kaysa sa LG, at mas konti ang may gusto ng cherry than LG…
Imagine them selling Optimus Black for 6k…

Ngayong 1pm ko lang nabasa ang promo, umabot pa ako…
May stock pa sila ng black and white units…
The problem now is getting ICS on this thing…

ronald · 14 years ago

Bought 2 from the store in greenhills theater mall. I was the first customer when it opened at 10am. Other customers after me would have to wait til lunchtime because the store only had 2 in stock. I also got the 2 8gb micro sd cards instead of the 4gb for the promo and screen protectors as freebies.

@Totem
Accually, rebranded SK-150 phone yan. Kaya, if CM can buy the rights to release these phones, that means other Pinoy Phone brands can actually buy the rights to releasing “T-Phones” from Pantech/Sky or other lesser Korean Phone Brands.

@MyPhone
Please buy the rights to rebrand and sell the T-Phones from Sky/Pantech para may Sky Vega Racer na kami dito sa pinas.

Totem · 14 years ago

Thanks! I had to search “SK-150” and found out that it’s actually SK-S150.. I’ve read that a Chinese company partnered together with SK Telecom in producing this phone..

NEC Display · 14 years ago

Really nice mobile phone. how much for this phone..

Totem · 14 years ago

Hindi ba rebranded South Korean phone to? Kasi as far as I know, SK Telecom phones have this “T” logo..

mar · 14 years ago

Mahal na ngayon ang presyo ng isang kilong tingga.

Premier · 14 years ago

rebranded? lol? imbento much? lenovo and alcatel too? Repost site with dumbdumb audience lol.

amitrole · 14 years ago

mga sir… tanong lang po… may nakit akong binebenta na nokia C6-01… 4k… sulit na ba un? o mas ok itong CM w900? thanks!

Dolan Duk · 14 years ago

Actually, it’s a T-phone
Since T-phone naman siya, it seems reliable kaya I might take on the chance, pero my Micromax A45 is good for now.

I hope MyPhone buys rights to release more T-Phones like the Sky than Cherry does.

Sky Vega Racer II = MyPhone A977X

pinescruiser · 14 years ago

for a few months its either mag stay ang price at 5999 or baka bumaba pa. china rebranded phone na single sim? hmmm.. wait mode muna ako.. dami kasing dual sim phones na china rebrand din, like what lenovo and alcatel has..

Benchmark · 14 years ago

nako…here comes another ala-LG chaos…hmmm I just hope those who will avail this will not be discourage…I mean sana makakuha kayo at may sufficient stock sila…nakakapagtaka, sobra naman baba ng price.

Good luck sa inyo!
