Cherry Mobile Flare Mate


Cherry Mobile is about to introduce its first smartphone with a finger print sensor, the Cherry Mobile Flare Mate. It’s also a huge phone with a screen that measures 6 inches diagonally and has a full HD resolution. This is part of the company’s fleet of new offers for the holiday season.

Just like the Flare 4 and its siblings, the Cherry Mobile Flare Mate has the MediaTek MT6753 chipset. This gives it a 1.3 GHz octa core CPU and Android 5.1 Lollipop as the operating system out of the box. There’s 2 GB of RAM to handle multi-tasking and a Mali-T760 graphics processor to render high quality graphics on its huge screen. The finger print sensor is placed at the back, just below the camera and its LED flash. It should be able to provide unlocking and authentication features.

The Cherry Mobile Flare Mate is equipped with a 16 Megapixel main camera for general photography and a 5 Megapixel front camera. Both cameras has its own LED flash and a Backside Illuminated image sensor for producing high quality pictures even in poor lighting conditions. Its built-in storage space is 16 GB but whether this can be expanded is yet to be revealed. 

This is a dual SIM smartphone and can connect to 4G LTE networks. It has an official price of PHP 8,999.00 which means we can expect a good battery capacity, several sensors and high quality.
