It’s not yet properly announced, but a new Cherry Mobile smartphone is coming soon. A variant of the Touch and Touch 3G, the new Cherry Mobile Touch XL boasts a gigantic 6-inch IPS display for only Php3,299.
Known specs of the Cherry Mobile Touch XL come from a leaked brochure (that also exposed the upcoming Omega 3) gave and the official listing in the company website. This is a phablet that’s powered by a quad-core Spreadtrum processor and runs Android 4.4 KitKat out of the box.
The Cherry Mobile Touch XL further offers 8GB of onboard storage with microSD expansion up to 32GB, dual SIM configuration and some connectivity options. Its front- and rear-facing cameras feature 2 and 5 megapixels of resolution, respectively. Last but not least, it has a 2500mAh non-removable battery.
