For me my cherry mobile experienced kahit gaano pa kaganda lumabas phone nila. I extremely advice wag kayo bibili. You know what pag nagka problema ang phone ninyo kahit may warranty pa yan. Part of their marketing strategy is to look for a fault in your phone. Kahit konting gasgas lang yan o kaya maliit na dent. Vo-void nila warranty ng phone mo.

Bakit ko nasabi at alam? Kasi dalawang phone kuna pinagawa sa kanila still under warranty. But they void it. But in my case hindi ako pumayag I complain them sa DTI at hindi sila nanalo. Mapapansin ninyo sa Sm North umaga pa lang sus ang dami na nakapila para magpa gawa ng Chery Mobile phone. May iba pang issue pinagawa yoong phone wala pang ilang araw sira na naman. Kaya if I were you guys. Wag na wag na kayong bumili ng Cherry Mobile phone. Sayang lang pera ninyo.

Certified Migraine (CM) ang services nila, lalo na pag unit replacement, ilan beses ka pababalik balikin at pag antayin ng 4hrs bago mo makuha ang technical report. At pag magpapareplace ka na, sasabihin nun babaeng masungit sa counter, wala n daw silang stock na pamalit. Talagang pinahihirapan nila mga tao. Goodluck sa mga bibili.

kayong mga nagrereklamo bago kayo bumili ihanda nyo na tseklist nyo na dapat tingnan at subukan sa phone, videohan ang sarili at ang produkto while unboxing dapat kita receipt at phone S/N at makiselfie sa store rep at manager para pag nasira o naging depektibo itampal nyo sa kanila pamblack mail at ikakalat nyo sa social media at ipasa sa dti. ganyan dapat ang effort sa pagbili ng mura at substandard na phones mauumpog din yan.

Ok sana umpisa ng Cherry Mobile dun sa flare. Kaso yung kinita nila imbis na sa after sales support in invest, sa mga endorsers nila binuhos… Para namang gumagamit yung mga iyon ng Products nyo. Sa word of mouth pa lang at reviews dami nyo nang hatak. Never buying local phones beyond 4k again.

Their phone models are apparently getting even more and more better. But what’s more into a phone is the built & quality. And i can tell that once in my life i have been brainwashed by their shit misadvertisements. Its true that the phone is processing well but in just less than half a year my cosmos s got faulty and the next thing i know its not working anymore. cherry has voided my warranty for a very little dent. And also, they wanted me to pay 80% of the selling price which is approx 7500 pesos. No Way for a shitty phone like Cherry Mobile. No Way. I learned my lesson and that hurt me financially coz i had to buy a new phone but everything’s went well now that im usinng a new phone from a different manufacturer. Less hassle and less worry on my end as a consumer. And satisfaction guaranteed.

Yeah, their customer service sucks.

If u wanted to encounter malfunctions & experience shitty cust service, id say that U would want to buy this phone. Coz it will give U a lot ofheadaches in the future.

Just saying. im just concerned & wanted consumers like me get what they deserve in the quality of product/service they purchase with their own hard-earned money.

23000 ang score ng ASUS Zenfone 5. Dual core lang yun. Di hamak na mas tipid sa battery (correct me if I’m wrong.) At 2 GB RAM pa. Plus it’s a foreign brand. Mas maraming devs.
