Cherry Mobile is really on a roll right now. After the release of the Cherry Mobile Titan and Cherry Mobile Flare, they now have another ultra-budget android phone named as Cherry Mobile W300. As the name suggests, this one is just like the W100 and it only have several differences.
The details of this new device are still not officially announced by Cherry Mobile but our writer, JM Balicano, stumbled upon this device on a mall which the first set of units were delivered. Needless to say, this is the exclusive first look of this budget android phone. At first glance, it somehow resembles the CM Flare but it can be easily distinguished because of the Gingerbread OS.
For only Php2,999, the Cherry Mobile W300 still brings a good set of specs on the table. It is powered by a 1GHz single core processor, 512MB of RAM, and runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread. It’s not really bad if you’ll ask me, especially with this kind of price. And I hate to say it but this move will definitely piss some Candy TV owners. Although if you prefer the mobile TV, the Candy TV is the one that suits you.

The reason that helped Cherry Mobile to lower the price of the Cherry Mobile W300 is the lack of 3G. Pretty dissappointing? No, not really. A lot of android users there don’t need 3G so that drawback is relative to the user. Also, the 4-inch screen will give you a little more room to work with than that of the CM W100. Oh, the W300 doesn’t have an IPS display unlike the W100 so it will have limited viewing angles when compared to the latter.

Available na ba yan sa Cherry Mobiles stores
yup for 2999
Sana 5MP na ang Camera,
kung lagyan nyo po ng chainfire 3D.. baka mag run ung mga graphic intensive games.
Wala na po ang phone saken. Binili ko siya as a gift kaya rineview lang ang lahat ng functions and tested as many games as I could before ko dinispose.
Kuya how about Candy TV … mas okay po ba ang yan or yung Candy TV? Pa-email naman po ng difference ng dalawa if okay lang po thank you krissyess0216@gmail.com
If you want TV, go for Candy TV. If all around android phone, go for Flare or W100.
ilang gb po ng sd card ang kya nya?
16GB-32GB.
Mas madame pong compatible na games sa Candy TV kesa sa w300. Pero kung gusto mo po ng mas magandang camera. Go for w300 :)
How about the Sensors naman po ? na Try nyo na po ba sya sa mga Racing game like NFS and Temple Run which means gnagamitan ng Accelerometer?
Temple Run and Temple Run: Brave would install, but would not play. This is likely because of the MIPS chipset that a lot of games can’t seem to run on.
na try ko yung censors nya sa ibang bagay sa ibang race games pero sa temple run di pa di kasi gumagana temple run saka yung nfs nmn di ko pa na download kasi may bayad wahahaha
narelease na po ba ito ?
Yes. It’s now out in the market.
Sir ano anong games po kinaya ng w300? may full review po ba kayo niyo?salamat sir
HI, its not yet done. We’re currently working on the Flare and Titan review. But if you’ll ask me, it looks like the W100 is a better choice.
yung ibang versions ng angry birds at yung may mga low memorry function games lang pero yung may mga matataas na graphics kahit isa sa mga na download ko walang gumna wahaha
mukha naman po ba syang matibay ? :)
Yep. Mas solid yung materials compared to the W100. Yun nga lang, MIPS-based ang processor. Konti lang ang compatible games. Kahit Angry Birds, ayaw mag-run -_-
im planning to buy my first android phone.pinagpipilian ko kasi kung CM w300 ba or w100 yung bibilhin ko anu po bang mas maganda ?
Depends kung gamer ka or you like browsing the internet kahit on the go. Yung W100, may 3G and is capable of playing some of the more graphically challenging games like Shadowgun, Dead Trigger and Agent Dash.
The big screen and higher resolution are the only advantages of the W300. MIPS CPU kasi ang chipset, kaya hindi compatible ang karamihan ng games. I tried Dead Trigger, Agent Dash, Angry Birds Star Wars, and Angry Birds. Non would play. Fruit Dash lang gumana out of the games I tested. Apps like Instagram, Twitter, Facebook should all work fine though, pero 2G lang ang supported mobile network.
Kung gusto mo ng complete Android experience, go for the W100.
salamat ng marami siguro w100 na lang yung bibilhin ko .. :)
pwede makapaglaro ng Dead trigger,shadowgun at agent dash sa w100 kahit hindi rooted ?
Yes. Controls are a little cramped kc maliit lang ang screen, pero okay naman ang framerates. Very playable.
at the moment sir im playing temple run at start medyo laggy sya pero after a min ok na and playable na im still testing it (playing at the meantime) post ako ulit for other games
Please do post the kind of games you are able to play, as well as those you could not install or would not run after installing. I’m still finishing up the Flare review and will be moving on to the W300 review so any input will be much appreciated. Thanks!
