Cherry Mobile First KitKat has now surfaced - The Urban. Kinda gives me the look of my old Optimus from the form and curves but that glossy plastic really just don't have premium appeal.
Comes with a 4.5 inch qHD (960 x 540 pixels) IPS Display that is great working together with Mediatek MT6582 Quad-Core Processor and Mali-400MP2 GPU. Memory and Storage is sufficient with 1GB RAM and 4GB Internal storage. It does have expansion slot via MicroSD for backup.
For its optics, it is equipped with 8MP primary back camera supported by Flash and comes with 2MP front camera. Not packing a special sensor, i believe it will still give favorable output for your photos, videos, selfies and quality video chat.
Stay online and connect with standard range of connectivity features like WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and HSPA+. Print your documents via your phone with Cloud Print.
Battery is only so-so with 1700mAh. Better set brightness to low and activate connectivity features when needed.
Package includes usual selection like Unit, Battery, Charger, Data Cable and Headset. Freebie suction stand, if you get lucky.
It cost at only 4,699.00 which is pretty much the same as Cherry Mobile Flare S2. Its kinda like Flare and Burst before you have a secondary option if you don't like the other.
If you want to be updated on the latest version of Android then the Urban is for you. I was surprised to find out that Cherry Mobile first KitKat turn out to be a Mediatek device such that source codes from the chipset maker was hard to come by or to say nil. This does brings hope of upgrade to other Mediatek CM devices so fingers crossed.
As usual, Cherry Angel is very dedicated in releases. Kudos Sir!!!
