October 10, 2020 is a big day for many companies here in the Philippines, including one of the most successful proudly-Pinoy tech brands - CHERRY, as they will offer their products for a lot less through big discount sales on their online retail channels.
On Saturday, Cherry Mobile - the mobile devices arm of the company - will be selling the popular Cherry Mobile Flare S8 Max for PHP 1,000 less, bringing its price down to just PHP 5,989!
This is certainly a huge treat for CHERRY fans are this particular Android smartphone model has great features and technical specifications that can really improve or enhance the mobile experience of consumers, especially those who are coming from an aging entry-level handset.
Great for watching videos, reading articles, and playing games, Cherry Mobile Flare S8 Max features a 7-inch FullHD+ IPS display that's not only large but also crisp and brilliant. Note that this screen size is even bigger than what you will find on more expensive models by international brands that are out in the market. If you ask me, I think this is one of the reasons why Cherry gave this model the "Max" suffix in its name.
The display is matched by an equally humongous 6,000 mAh battery pack that easily ensures a whole day of uptime for heavy gamers and power users or even two days for those who mainly use their handset just for checking social media apps, watching TV series, or playing light games. Max, indeed!
Inside its sleek polycarbonate shell that's available in multiple eye-catching colors, Cherry Mobile Flare S8 Max has capable internal hardware headlined by the 2GHz Octa Core MediaTek Helio P23 with Mali-G71 MP2 GPU that's solid for gaming and overall touch experience.
The chipset is complemented by 4GB of RAM for fairly stutter-free multitasking and sizable 64GB of storage that can easily be expanded using the microSD card slot. In this price point, I would say that this set of innards is already excellent.
For those who are into mobile photography, Flare S8 Max has a Dual Rear Camera Module made up of a 16 MegaPixel Main Camera with Phase Detection AutoFocus plus a secondary 2 MegaPixel Depth Sensor enabling Portrait Mode or Bokeh Effect. In front, the phone has a 13 MegaPixel camera housed in a small U-shaped notch that's great for taking selfies and groufies.
If you're worried about privacy and security, Flare S8 Max has both Facial Recognition integrated with its front-facing camera and a Rear-Mounted Fingerprint Scanner that - together - add a veritable layer of protection from those who check the contents of your phone without your knowledge. Of course, you will still enjoy the benefits of the usual pattern and passcode unlock.
