    It’s shocking you left out local phone makers Cloudfone Next with 4gb ram, snapdragon 430, finger print sensor, aluminum body and I believe SD slot with base 32gb storage for what’s frequently on sale for below 7500 on Lazada.

    • Avatar for Carl Lamiel Carl Lamiel says:

      The Cloudfone Next was released last year (Oct. 17, 2016).

      Again, we are compiling a list of smartphones released in the Philippines from January 1 to June 30, 2017, hence the title Mid-2017.
