ReplyDeleteSana i consider nla ang battery life ng mga gadgets, aanhin mo naman ang pagkaganda gandang specs kung di naman aabutin ng isang araw.
ReplyDeleteANO PO BA UNG gpu?
ReplyDeletegraphics processing unit (GPU)
ReplyDelete@kenmark all android phones have GPU wlang android phone na wlang GPU ksi un ang basic need to run the whole system
ReplyDeletetatapat daw dito yung myphone a898 na 5mp pero 2 led flash daw so ano kaya ang resulta sa camera and video comparison . Sa day performance maaring lamang ang Astra but night video baka myphone coz 2 led flash
ReplyDeleteNa update na pla yung link dati po 150MB of internal storage/memory lng po yung OT997.. at 8MP with 720p video recording din po yung astra.
ReplyDeleteread more sir. .the internal memory of ot 997 is 4GB ^_^
ReplyDelete997 is far more better specs than the Astra specially compare the camera of 8MP with 720p video rec. .just dont know the Price ^_^
The Starmobile Astra has the same specs with that of the Alcatel OT 997, except for the RAM (OT 997 has 1GB of RAM, while the Astra has 512MB), internal storage (the OT 997 has 150MB of internal storage, while the Astra has 4GB), Mobile TV (OT 997 has none) and the battery capacity (1,800mAh against the 1,500mAh of the Astra). I think the Alcatel OT 997 is slightly better than the Astra because of its 1GB RAM and 1,800mAh battery.
ReplyDeleteMore about the specs of the Alcatel ONE TOUCH 997 below http://www.gsmchoice.com/en/catalogue/alcatel/ot997/Alcatel-OT-997.html
which one is better? this or Alcatel ONE TOUCH 997?
ReplyDeletemeron kayang GPU to? im willing to wait if so. kaso big letdown naman yung battery. lahit 1800mAh man lang sana. sa laki ng display, IPS, with TV pa. baka d kayanin nito kahit isang araw
ReplyDeleteMeron GPU po, nd pa namin ma confirm kng anung GPU, kasi nd pa ito na release sa market.
ReplyDeleteThis baby is gonna be a big hit if the price is around 5k and good advertising. Tv will surely look good on a big screen and a camera flash 3g, glass screen etc! Almost perfect for a budget phone. I think myphone is going to cry. Hehe
ReplyDeleteThe main problem would be the battery life!
Dapat mas Affordable ito and mukhang promising din ito ah,maghit to I can Assume.Thanks god at di pa ako bumibile ng new phone.Kudos Starmobile!!!
ReplyDeleteWiFI 802.11b/g lng po
ReplyDeletemeron pong facebook?
ReplyDeleteBaka po, kng wala po download lng kayo ng Facebook app sa Google Playstore.
