MyPhone has been aggressive in marketing their upcoming android phone through teasers on their official Facebook fanpage. We just received official details about the price and specs as well as some in the flesh photos from our insider. Interested? Check it out!
MyPhone’s new teaser for their coming phone in the Agua line has confirmed that it’ll go by the name Vortex. The teaser ad also touts a new feature (for budget phones) typically reserved for high-end units: pop-up video, a la Pop Up Play of Samsung or LG’s QSlide. MyPhone calls theirs Multi-Video Display.
Another teaser trailer showed the upcoming phone’s cameras: a 13MP BSI camera in the rear and a 5MP camera upfront. Now, we all know that MyPhone isn’t everything but the sensor being Sony-made could give us hope that image performance would be top-notch.
As we pointed out in a recent article, all fingers point to it being the same as the Micromax Canvas 4 and it has been confirmed by our MyPhone insider.
We’re seeing a MyPhone Agua Iceberg successor with a much smaller screen size and same resolution. That does make my head scratch because the new Multi-Video Display would have benefited a lot from the larger screen size. Other specs would be similar with a 1.2GHz quad-core processor, 1GB RAM, 16GB internal storage, 4.2 Jellybean, and other connectivity bells and whistles usually seen at high-end devices. The smaller screen does mean that it gets a smaller battery, at 2000mAh.

reviews for this phone
Looks of the phone:
1. elegant
– very cool pag hinawakan dahil aluminum ang gilid nya , just think of the ihpone4 and iphone 5 same as this phone and the size of the phone is just right para mahawakan ng maayos d masyado malaki and maliit (just the right size)
what i like about this phone:
1. Camera
-taking picture can be very easy for this phone for a 13mgp sobrang kuha nya ang details ng gusto mo kunan, you just have to focus it and there you go!
– front camera are also awesome with 5mgp
if i could just post some pics taken with this phone i would kaso hindi ko alam sorry guys
2.No lagging or delay
– you can play dead trigger 2, NBA 2k14 and other games with no lag kasi quad core na , un nga lang it will really consume a lot of your battery =)
3. Expandable memory
– If you are interested in downloading many games of movies this will be a good choice rather than iceberg (just my opinion)
Problem:
1. Battery life
-mabilis maubos ang battery lalo na pag heavy use ex. gaming and other things
so far battery is the only problem i had for this phone, but you can buy a power bank to solve the problem.
JUST MY REVIEW FOR THIS PHONE
Feel free to comment guys
im agree :)
the only problem i had with my new myphone vortex is the active lock screen, its a pain…i deactivated it already… rest is all good and camera works fine with clever motion but my old a919 duo takes better pics…may be the ice berg is better than this even though it does not have mem. expansion support
baka nag install ka nang launcher?? kasi nangyari saki nag install ako nang launcher at d na gumagata ung clever motion nya..pero pag inalis ko, ok na sya agad..
default launcher lang gamit ko
dapat mababa lang brightness mo para gumana clever motion
kabibili ko lang vortex nung monday… suddenly napakadaling malowbatt.. and nung kinabukasan ayaw gumana nung clever motion at pati yung mic yata mahina…yung totoo 13mp ba talaga? eh parang maganda pa yung cam ng 8mp MYPHONE A888 ko dati…. yun lang naman yung problema.. and the rest is good
Oo nga. Battery talaga yung problema ko nakakainis.
can we upgrade vortex the OS to 4.3
Iceberg o diamond v7 ng star
Ano ba
mas swabe gamitin vortex o star mobile knight?
