The Omega HD was the upgraded and more improved version of Omega
because of some various issues that users have experienced. Thanks to Cherry
Mobile because of upbringing again a quality kind of smartphone yet with an
affordable price because Omega HD’s price tag is worth Php 8,000 only!
This smartphone is really interesting right? Well let’s have
a small review about Omega HD. It is boasting a 5-inch HD IPS Display which gives
a brighter screen display and better viewing angles. Omega HD does not have a
stunning screen display but it also have scratch resistant Dragontail Glass and
water resistant. It is powered by 1 GHz Dual Core ARM Cortex A9 with the latest
Android jellybean and fueled by 1GB of RAM that multi-tasking experience will
be better. One of the downside I noticed
was its GPU because it only has PowerVR SGX531 that’s why some of HD Games is a
bit laggy while playing.
Another edge of Omega HD was its camera performance because
it offers a 12 megapixels BSI Camera which is the same with the built in camera
of Starmobile Flirt. It also have front facing camera with 2 megapixles, which
is perfect if you use the video call feature. You can interact with your online
friends by using either Wi-Fi or 3G Connectivity. It is equipped by 2,100 Li-Ion
Battery which can last for about 1 day of working.
Overall, Cherry Mobile Omega HD is competitive in line of
Phablet category, starting from its design until its internal processors all
were superb and exceptional and the price is even affordable. In short it is worth to buy because of the
latest specs that was used that will give the users a full blast of experience.
