Cherry Mobile Fusion Aura: 7-inch Android 4.4 KitKat tablet for Php2,299

Here’s another first from Cherry Mobile: a 7-inch slate that comes preloaded with Android 4.4 KitKat. For Php2,299 only, the new Cherry Mobile Fusion Aura will be arriving in stores starting this weekend.

As we’ve reported before, the Cherry Mobile Fusion Aura is an entry-level tablet with a 7-inch capacitive screen, dual core processor, 2-megapixel and VGA cameras, and 2600mAh battery. Indeed the specs won’t wow all but the budget-conscious mobile users, an understandable notion given the very affordable price. At least the slate is one of the few early adopters of 4.4 KitKat in the local tablet scene. And with a so-called classic, textured design (that apparently meets modern technology) that we’ve learned to love—or hate—in Samsung’s Note series, the Cherry Mobile Fusion Aura does grab attention.

Cherry Mobile Fusion Aura Specs

• Android 4.4 KitKat
• 7-inch capacitive display
• 1.5GHz dual core processor
• 512MB RAM
• 4GB internal storage
• microSD support up to 32GB
• 2-megapixel main camera
• 0.3-megapixel (VGA) front camera
• Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Miracast
• USB On the Go
• 2600mAh battery
• Php2,299

With the Facebook announcement, a few more specs have been revealed about the Cherry Mobile Fusion Aura. We now know that it’s got 512MB of RAM for the basic multitasking and 4GB of internal storage for a decent mix of apps and media files. We do hope to learn about the model and make of the dual core processor, the screen resolution and other visual goodies like IPS technology, and the software bundles. It’s good to know that there are USB OTG and Miracast support, but we hope there’s more.

The Cherry Mobile Fusion Aura “will radiate these coming days.” Once again, the price is only Php2,299 for this budget-friendly tablet.
