Cherry Mobile Thunder has been officially announced by Cherry Mobile through their official Facebook fanpage yesterday. At first glance on the photo above, you would most likely notice that this is a cheaper deal for those who can’t afford a Flame or for those who find the Flare small. Check out the details after the break.
The Cherry Mobile Thunder is one of the three leaked CM android phones in a set of flyers which we recently posted about a couple of days ago. The others are Cherry Mobile Burst and Cherry Mobile Titan TV, respectively.
Cherry Mobile Thunder is a mid-range device (local standards) that resembles a lot of an earlier CM android phone – Cherry Mobile Flame. Since Php6,299 is quite hefty for most Pinoys, they decided to be generous to cater the lower-end market with an affordable but very capable handset. The specifications aren’t mind blowing, but that’s probably the best we can get for something that’s already cheap for its set of features.
The specs are quite standard, as we’ve mentioned before, most Pinoy android phones today have almost identical configurations. It has a Mediatek 6577 1GHz dual-core processor, 512MB RAM, and 4GB internal memory. There is a 5-megapixel camera at the back, and a VGA (TBC) front-facing camera. The full specifications of the Cherry Mobile Thunder is yet to be revealed but it’ll be out later today so we’ll just update this post for any alterations (UPDATE: Confirmed).

Cherry Mobile Thunder will be exclusively available at Lazada for a price of only Php4,999 but we expect that it will also go on sale o CM kiosks as it can get more sales there. If you’ll ask me, I think this device is a pretty good deal. What do you guys think? Will you buy one?
there is no LED flash on this phone. my friend just bought this phone and she complained that there is no flash on the back portion of the phone. Wrong advertising!!!
is this available on cherrymobile stalls?? in malls???
just bought cm thunder last week, na root na din, so far wala naman ako naeencounter na kahit anong prob sa unit napaka smooth gamitin, ok sa call camera ok batt life ok din…
Thankzz gusto ko din neto
hello pano po i root ung thunder??
lahat ng phone review walang mention about call quality or call functionality.
dapat meron kasi phone nga di ba.
IPS ba to? Nagdadalawang isip ako sa quality nito nadala na ako dati mura nga tsk tsk tsk dehado sa quality.
Ang dami namang pagpipilian pero di perfect ang bawat isa.. ano b talaga ang matibay sa mga yan? may NTC logo ba? ang gusto ko lang naman ay yung matagal malowbat, pwede niyo ba akong tulungan.. ? tsaka yung affordable.. ok b yung flare? e yung thunder kaya?
sir prefer ko yung thunder.. compare sa flare.. meron ako kaibigan durability test nya yung flare nya… load up nya ng games like temple run2 and etc… 1 week after yung screen sensitivity ang nagka problema ayaw mag swip.. kahit mag unlock ayaw… nag start mag hang ang ibang apps.. i dont know sa iba na meron flare anong masabi nila…
MTagal ba Battery life ng Omega HD?
Ganito po kasi yan sir. Kung habol nyo po mahaba ang battery life pero cherry mobile, the best po ang TITAN ng cherry. :)

cm cruize,
I was wondering if you could compare this to the Titan? I’m having trouble deciding which one to get…
It’s the Titan, no doubt.
1700mah lang ung battery nya.
ok naman mganda ung design,,magaang sya slim type kasi,,..tapos mura pa,, kaso di ko lang trip ung camera basic lang ung settings,,mas mganda p din ung sa my phone a898 duo mas clear ung image pareho lang sila na 5mp un cam,,
