Cherry Mobile is set to launch a follow up to their budget Flare P-series. This new line will be headed by the Cherry Mobile Flare P3.
This new device, together with the Flare P3 Lite and Flare P3 Plus, will be slightly different from its predecessors. Unlike the Flare P1 — the Flare P3 series will focus on the software experience rather than the cameras.
Cherry Mobile plans to equip these smartphones with Android Oreo Go, which really makes sense for handsets in the entry-level category.
With Android Go, consumers can expect better user-experience and performance despite the low-end hardware.
Speaking of internals, the Flare P3 will come with a MediaTek MT6580 quad-core processor, a 5.5-inch 18:9 screen, 1GB of RAM, and 8GB of expandable storage.
