Yung GPU is integrated na sa chip na yan, and mostly ginagamit yan sa mga phone mula china, wait mo nalang yung bagong mt na processor which will bring quad core sa murang halaga plus maganda pa GPU kung tama yung pinost sa mga leaked ng manufacturer ng processor,
ReplyDeleteyung GPU ba yung nagpamahal sa kanya? parang same ng starmobile astra ei...
ReplyDeleteCrappy phone. My first unit was defective on second day of use (screen problem, like having a mind of its own). Unit was replaced by Cherry and after 2 mos. of use....lo and behold, same problem again. Was brought to service center and they can't seem to trace the problem. 6k down the drain.
ReplyDeletesupported ba ng skyfire ang 3g video call like titan?.. tnx..
ReplyDeleteSupported po, meron po ito VGA front cam at 3G connectivity.
ReplyDeleteThank you for crediting me. :) Cheers!

Hello! screenshots from my Skyfire produces an image with resolution of 854×480 pixels which means it has a FWVGA display: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_display_resolution#FWVGA . you might want to update the specs above :)
ReplyDeleteOpera Mini ba ang default browser ng CM
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info :)
ReplyDeleteYour welcome! :)
ReplyDeleteokay lang po.
ReplyDeleteWala na pala, sabi kasi sa flyers meron.
ReplyDeletewala pong free 4GB SD card pag binili.
ReplyDeleteBattery capacity??
ReplyDeleteRumored lng po yung battery capacity, update ko lng po kapag confirmed na.
ReplyDeletebossing confirmed na ba tong battery niya?
ReplyDeletemga kaninang hapon lang ako pumunta dun meron na silang stocks and same goes for sm city branch..Well regarding performance wala namang problems smooth and fast its almost the same with my titan,but the skyfire takes better pics than titan..the letdown lang talaga i think is its battery..since its 1500 mAh, and it has a 4.7inch screen i dont think it is sufficient, if only they made it 2000mAh,im sure a lot of consumers would take it right away..i would even buy one..but thats just me and my opinion ^_^
ReplyDeletethanks for the credit bossing..hehehe,better check it out and make a review before stocks run out..again, heheh,,if someone in iloilo are for a flare and titan check sm city iloilo they still have stocks
ReplyDeleteBakit po? anu po yung Skyfire? Last Monday nagpunta rin kami sa Robinson Iloilo, CM Flame lng po yung available doon at sabi ng isang sales person wala pa yung Skyfire.
ReplyDeleteBtw, Thanks for the tip :)
Master i just had the chance to fondle with the Skyfire..there are stocks here in iloilo sm city and robinsons. And regarding with the battery confirmation,the battery of the skyfire is only 1500mAh..well sad to say i am a bit of dissapointed. - vained/Johnny Tapia
ReplyDeleteNd pa po. Update ko lng po ito kapag confirmed na
ReplyDeleteBossing update lang po..the battery is only 1500mAh,confirmed po yun bossing coz i had the chance to fondle with it..its available na dito sa iloilo - vained/johnny tapia
