In case you’re living under a rock for a month now or you’re just very busy to keep up with the latest tech news, two local smartphone giants clashed last week with their own release of high-end superphones.
The MyPhone Agua Iceberg is actually the first ever pinoy smartphone to come with a premium aluminum body and it was launched last July 26 in Eastwood. It also packs impressive specifications which will surely give you a satisfying android experience. MyPhone also decided to remove the Philippine map on their smartphones (starting with Iceberg) to make it look more appealing to others. The Iceberg is now available for Php11,998.

Meanwhile, the Cherry Mobile Cosmos Z was the first one to launch last July 24 and it on that day it became the first ever locally branded android smartphone to sport a Full HD (1920×1080 pixel resolution) display which is currently the norm for flagship android phones from well-known international players such as Samsung, HTC, LG, and Sony. The Cosmos Z will be available this August for Php11,999.

These two smartphones doesn’t directly compete with each other, as the first one is 5-inches while the Iceberg has 5.7-inches. But since they’re currently the best among the two brands, we figured they are the ones competing against each other, too.
Now, take your pick. Is it the MyPhone Agua Iceberg or the Cherry Mobile Cosmos Z?
sana ok ung enorder ko dalawang myphone
OMG nice talaga tong myphone
Ice berg – HD IPS panel with a resolution of 720 x 1280
Cherry Mobile – Full HD (1920×1080 pixel resolution)
no wonder kng bakit mas maganda reso ng Cm…
i go with Cosmos Z, i have a Cosmos X myself, and at the present, only Cherry Mobile phones catches my eye everytime i go to cellphone shops, the thing that always pulls me in is the quality of the screen, i’ve seen the iceberg in person as well as other myphone and starmobile smartphones, one thing i’ve noticed is that only Cherry Mobile phones have very black screens that you can’t see the edge of the screen when the screen is off, like what you would see in highend phones such as the iphone, higher-end Lumia series, highend Samsung and LG phones . . well, that’s me, others have their own preferences
n xpirince q nrin po yan pag ttingnan mo s side hnd n halos kita s MP pro sa CM halos gnun prin prang LCD lng din n appliances soft panel pag nka side k n nuod parang fog then pag hard panel k n nuod edge to edge wlang problem sa picture quality. parang mas mataas ang contrast ratio ng CM compare to MP. lalo n pag ntapat s sikat ng araw ang MP halos wla kng mkita sa bnabasa mong txt.
my phone is the best halos same din naman e kaso mas high quality ang myphone
I bought ICEBERG, but i was dissapointed. Sabi nila 16gb ang rom, pero ang TOTAL storage na nakalagay sa settings 14. Di pa yun ang available. Ang available nalang is 12gb. Nireklamo ko sya but they wont allow me to refund. :( Does anyone have the same experience?
thats normal android software occupies space along with the preloaded apps customer service did not explain that to you ?
normal po yan sa mga computer and phone devices, sa 16gb, yung system kumakain ng around 2-4gb pero di pinapakita sa storage details, yung 32gb ko na micro SD only has 27.5 gb of space, which is pretty normal as well . .
-.-” KAHIT NAMAN IPHONE 5 EHHH ganun ehhh 16gb ko nga naging 13 ehhh kaya isip isip rin po researh
I go with mp iceberg. i already experienced the quality and after sales of cm and its very poor.
salamat sa mga nagshe-share idea about sa mga bagong andoid. bibili kc ako ng phone, syempre walang perfect. ok lang naman yun, wag lang may defect… kaya nagbabasa ako d2 kung ano yung ok na phone. so far parang mas maraming like sa cosmos x2. yung mga nakabili na. pa-share naman ng xp nyo. plss thnks!
mas maganda po MYPHONE ilang beses ko na nabaksak sa 2nd floor steal matibay paren kaya soludo ako SA ICE BERG

That is true..Ilang beses na rin nabagsak MP Iceberg ko..and still perform na prang wlang nangyari BUT ang nakakalungkot dahil sa Aluminum back cover sya..ayun dami gasgas..nasa pag iingat na din ng user..i love my ICEBERG.

I vote for myphone. Matibay at SONY ang service center. yung FLARE na nabili ko, nahuhulog magisa ang turnilyo. void warranty daw kasi wala na ang screw eh walang kwenta unit nila.
YES SONY KAYA GO NA
MyPhone iceberg Mini ka po kuya… super tibay.. and if my problema super responsive at madaling malitan ang unit after sales… di gaya ng CM pag nagka problema phone mo after sales.. pag papasa-pasahan ka nila then pabalik-balikin kpa…taz walang ring mangyayari.. go for myphone kuya… hinding hindi ka mag sisisisi
“CM pag nagka problema phone mo after sales.. pag papasa-pasahan ka nila then pabalik-balikin kpa…taz walang ring mangyayari..” — same experience.. nakakainis talaga, hanggang ngayon naiinis ako…nagsayang lng ako ng pera…. try ko kaya mgMP…
So nag sea-search lng ako na kung anu ang mas maganda, i’ll go with myphone :D
