Both phones are priced at Php 3,999. Both are released by Cherry Mobile. Let us compare their specifications to help us decide which is better.
Like the previous specifications fight I published, Cherry Mobile Thunder vs Cherry Mobile Hyper at Php 4,999 Only, let me lay it out simply less words more numbers. These phones are at the same price so it would be a better comparison. Here are the links to the previous articles I made about the Cherry Mobile Flare and Cherry Mobile Burst. On the right the Cherry Mobile Flare, opposite to it the Cherry Mobile Burst.
DUAL SIM
Flare: Yes
Burst: Yes
DISPLAY
Flare: 4.0″ IPS capacitive touch panel (800 x 480)
Burst: 4.0″ IPS capacitive touch panel (800 x 480)
PROCESSOR*
Flare: 1.2GHz dual-core processor Qualcomm MSM8225 Snapdragon S4
Burst: 1GHz dual-core processor Qualcomm MSM8225 Snapdragon
OPERATING SYSTEM
Flare: Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
Burst: Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
RAM
Flare: 512 MB
Burst: 512 MB

Flare: 4 GB (microSD up to 32GB)
Burst: 4 GB (microSD up to 32GB)
CAMERA
Flare: 5-megapixel rear camera with flash; VGA front
Burst: 5-megapixel rear camera with flash; VGA front
CONNECTIVITY
Flare: 3G / HSDPA
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, WiFi hotspot, Bluetooth 2.1
GPS w/ aGPS support
Burst: 3G / HSDPA
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, WiFi hotspot, Bluetooth 2.1
GPS w/ aGPS support\
BATTERY*
Flare: 1500 mAh
Burst: 1500 mAh
And the winner is?
Clearly, its the Cherry Mobile Flare. Why?
1. Clock Speed. The Cherry Mobile Flare's processor is clocked at 1.2 GHz while Burst is at 1 Ghz
2. Battery. 1600 mAh for Cherry Mobile Flare while Cherry Mobile Burst is only 1500 mAh
However, these phones are almost identical. And some resellers tag the Cherry Mobile Flare higher than Php 3,999. So the Cherry Mobile Burst is a good alternative. And Flare is almost always out of stock. :)
Hope this helped you out in choosing your phone! Androidify your life with Cherry Mobile. If you have comments, suggestions or reactions feel free to comment below.

@NicoCalunia
may wifi hotspot ba na spec/feature tlga ang flare?how come nagtanong ako,eh d nila alam at wala mismo sa box ng flare ang ganung spec/feature?thnks po
ReplyDeleteExplore your phone kung di ka busy hehe
Delete@Anonymous: Capable po mag-Wi-Fi hotspot ang Cherry Mobile Flare. Nasa wireless networks po ang setting na yan. So if unlimited ang data-connection mo you can use this as a broadband modem. :)
Delete@akoito: Maybe hindi pa siya nakabili. :D Just curious if maka-Wi-Fi hotspot ba ang Flare. Thanks for the advice.
thnks nico calunia..ganyan ang gusto kong sagot..ty..ill buy one..
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome. Sana makabisita ka ulit. :) Or refer mo iba sa blog na to. Thank you.
Deletei have a flare and my sister has a burst and seeing both phones side by side, the flare beats the burst. i dont know how other bursts are performing but her phone seems to have some bugs, like at some point mawawala ang photos niya, maghahang ang phone niya, which leaves her nothing but to keep on rebooting her phone. and sabi autofocus daw ang cam ng burst which isnt true. cant believe they still claimed it to be (i'd still give it a chance, maybe i just wasnt able to find it yet on the settings). but what i like about it is ung sound output ng headphones when you play music. even thought about swapping phones kasi we know naman na mahina ang sound output ng flare, but eventually tumanggi ako dahil mas marami pa ring pros ang flare.
ReplyDeletehope my comment helps. :-)
For me, experience from users is really more important than comparing spec sheets. This comment will help visitors who will visit this site. Thanks a lot for this! :)
DeleteSir a little question lang po, based on your experience, madali bang uminit ang Flare? At kapag uminit siya gaano kainit? May Burst kasi dito sa bahay, wala namang problema ang bilis pa nga niya at very snappy actually; ang problema lang talaga, madali lang talaga siya uminit at kapag uminit siya, mainit talaga.
DeleteI'm planning to replace my old phone kasi and I don't know what to choose between the two.
Your answer will bring a lot of help. Thanks!
If you are just using the Flare for little texting, calling, browsing (Wi-Fi) hindi umiinit. But if you play with it (Hill Climb, Racing Games, Candy Crush) for long hours, talagang umiinit pero manageable na man. (Ibig sabihin mahahawakan pa, hindi nakakapaso).hehe
DeleteBut if you are browsing using 3G or HSDPA, mapapaso ka sa init after 2 hours of continuous use.
A cheaper alternative to the CM Flare/CM Burst is the CM Click. You can check it out. :)
Thank you very much Nico, you're answer really helped me and I like the way you answer, polite and corteous.
DeleteBy the way, I have checked out the Click but I think I'll go for Flare. Thanks anyway!
This is the simplest way to compare phones and I like it. Thanks a lot!
ReplyDeleteWelcome and thank you tari. This weblog was first made for mobile surfers that is why simple lang. :) Keep visiting the site and thanks a lot for the compliment.
DeleteIm using flare for almost 3 months...good naman sound output nya..malakas nga gumamit kyo ng rocket player apps... then S Net mabilis naman....free nga s TM ang Net Using proxy
ReplyDeleteThank you for commenting. :) The apps you are using would be good for those who are visiting this site. They have something to make their Flare better. Is S Net a browser?
DeleteI want to buy flare so i can try this if its good quality. Hope its not out of stocks:-)
ReplyDeleteOk po talaga ang Flare. But to tell you the truth, ubusan talaga ang stocks. Thanks for commenting. :)
Deleteok din nman ang burst..kng lag ang problema..root it 1st para mawala ang bloatwares..lamang lng ng flare is marami silang devs and mods..
ReplyDeletepero wait lang din kaming mga burst user sa mga update pa ;))
Thanks for the information. :) If I may ask, how did you root your burst? Can you place a link here if you can? Because there are also Burst users who would like to try it out. Thank you. :)
DeletePaki sagot po nito please. Hindi po ako makapag-GM. I mean makakasend ako pero hindi sa karamihan. Gumawa nlng ako ng group para iclick ko nalang at isend pero pag gawa ko ng msg tas mag sesend na sana ako, walang groups nakalagay, contacts lng lahat so para naring i-check ko yung box sa mga sendan ko, so hindi parin ako makakapag send kasi marami yung sesendan ko. Please help po..
ReplyDeleteAno po phone nyo? Flare? Iclick mo lang yung contact icon sa upper right ng To:. Tapos makikita po sa top navigation: RECENT, CONTACTS, GROUPS. Sana nakatulong.
ReplyDeleteflare ako dati ok xia.. pero nung nasira kasi ung flare ko lagi na wala stock kaya baka switch n lng ako sa burst sguro.. "nasira flare ko kasi nalunod sa dagat ^^"
ReplyDeleteHaha sayang na man yang Flare mo. :D Dito sa Cagayan de Oro wala nang Burst puro Flare na nandito. :)
DeleteBurst po. Ako po yung hindi maka send nga maramihan. Pag gagawa po ako ng msgs tas isesend na, CONTACTS lang ang nakalagay tas mga contacts ko. Paano po ba mahanap at maka send sa Groups? Cherry Burst po yung phone ko please help :[[
ReplyDeleteAhh...Truth is I have and used the Flare. I have not really had a hands-on sa Burst. But if ever I would be able to handle it, I would immediately advice you. Sana po makaprovide kayo ng e-mail or something so that I can contact you. Or you can just visit the site from time to time para sa updates.
DeleteA call to all Burst users, please help na man po how to send to GROUPS using the CM Burst. Thanks in advance.
Tanong ko lang po kung bakit nir'root yung phone? Lagi kasi akong nagbabasa ng mga blogs, reviews at comment from the users na, may nabasa akong i-ROOT daw muna.. Blahblah. Di pa po kasi ako Android-user at may balak pa lang akong bumili ng CM Flare. Pakisagot naman po. Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteRooting an adroid phone means you have the administrator rights sa phone mo. If you are admin, you can get bloatwares that hamper your phone from optimized performance. In simple terms, you can make your phone smoother and faster. Caution lang, if rooted po ang phone, void na warranty mo. :)
DeleteThank you po. Godbless :D
DeleteGod bless you too! I hope you can visit this site soon. And if pwede, recommend nyo po sa iba. :)
Deletehi rooting is the best way to enjoy your phone totally. you can customize your phone for better, install custom rom {xda developers] and remove unnecessary programs bloatwates that eat ram.
ReplyDeleteBut be careful rooting will void your warranty and may brick your phone :}
Brick phones are categorized to two types
Hard Brick and Soft Brick
Soft brick phones usually hangs at boot and boot loop sometimes { can be fixed by softwares programs ,usb and etc]
Hard brick phones do not open when you press power button { probably cannot be fixed by softwares and can only be fix at datacenters] be careful hardbrick will totally make your phone a trash.
Thanks for the comprehensive information. :) I am hoping you will unmask the anonymous name so that I can link you in the acknowledgements on this weblog.
Deletemay autofocus na ang mga BAGONG release na Burst ngayon. Di na rin laggy ang Burst, thanks sa xda devs ng Burst nag improve ang performance ng phone.
ReplyDeleteWow! Thanks sa info allyn. Ngayon it will really compete with the CM Flare. :)
DeleteHello. Meron bang new ROM ang burst with auto focus na? Pa-link naman po. Thanks. :)
DeleteTry to go to CM store po para matingnan yang Burst mo. Mas okay po kasi sa technician talaga. Baka kasi may virus ang ROMS. :)
Deletehi po..im rhea..ask lng po, mkkdownload po ng LINE app o WeChat app ang flare?
DeleteYes pwede ang mga apps na yan. :)
DeleteI just bought a burst phone yesterday hnd ko alam pno magroot haha and pno mlalaman kung latest release ng burst to?thanks ask narin may screenshot po ito db?di ko lam pano help naman po hehe
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking the time to comment. Let me chop up your questions. :D
DeleteRooting: Wala pang nakakaroot ng Burst at this time. Wait lang tayo dyan. Interesado din ako kung paano.:)
Latest: Hmmm hindi ko pa nakita ang firmware ng bagong release na burst, but as stated by allyn cubero, may autofocus daw. Try the camera if it can autofocus. If it can, probably latest release ito.
Screenshot: Try to press and hold Power Button + Volume Down or Power Button + Volume Up.
dowload ka superuser and root checker from play then check kugn rooted na...baka kasi pre-rooted nayang burst like fusion bolt.
Deleteuhm tanong ko lang po kung anung suitable na pwede ipalit sa battery ng burst kc ang bilis pag lowbat pag nag ggames pero kung txting lng mtagal.. thnk you..
ReplyDeleteBago pa po kasi itong Burst. I still do not know any compatible battery for the Burst. Mostly, Samsung batteries are suitable for CM phones. Hope someone will answer this question soon. :) Thanks for commenting! :D
DeleteThank you. ill try to find batteries from samsung if i found some compatible ones i will post it here, :)
Deletehello po. maganda ba talaga ang Cherry mobile flare?? i am planning to buy one po kase. ano po ba ang mga advantages nya sa ibang phones?
ReplyDeleteHi po! Thanks for commenting. :) Para sa akin ok po ang Flare. But what I can advice you is research po on what you really want. I have posted here a lot of good phones from Cherry Mobile and other local brands. Gamitin nyo na lang po ang search box sa taas. Meron pong CM Click, Burst, Hyper, Flame, Thunder etc.
DeleteAdvantage po nito is that there are a lot of Flare users, marami kang matatanugan kung may problema. Ok din ang performance ng phone na ito. Medyo batt lang po ang mahina. Pero research po kayo dito sa site marami po kayong mapagpipilian.
Sana nakatulong. :)
I own a Flare and these were the things that I have noticed.
DeleteCons:
1. Coming from iPhone 4G and Sony Xperia Neo V, the camera sucks. Even with taking videos.
2. The battery is so low that it's wont last a day with constant text and calls, plus music playing and browsing.
3. Creaky back cover.
4. Problem with reading external SD card.
5. Bug with messaging.
6. Most of all, the thing that I really hate about my Flare, sobrang hina nang sounds. I even using Phillips Oneil Thread In-Ear and Skullcandy Earphones.
Pros:
1. IPS display.
2. Easy to root and flash.
3. Dual core Qualcomm Snapdragon Chipset clocked at 1.2Ghz.
4. Dirt cheap for only P3999 (some do sell it for P4200 with jellycase).
Just get the CM Hyper instead. Or buy a CM Basic phone for P700 plus CM Fusion Bolt Quad Core Tablet for P3999.
Tama itong review mo sa Flare. But for me ok lang ang volume ng Flare. Hindi kasi ako sanay sa loud noise. :)
DeleteI have not encountered any problem with SD cards and also sa messages.
But anyways, thanks for this bro! Balance reporting talaga no biases in terms of Flare.
minsan di na nadedetect si SD card...regarding messaging, yung thread messages/chat messages nya dapat di SENDER > RECEIVER > SENDER, naencounter ko yung next message nung person to me napupunta sa taas. pero ok na sya nung inupgrade ko to V37 and galaxy flare. sa sounds talaga mahina sya. mas mahal ko pa din sa FuBo ko kesa sa kanya pagdating sa sounds.
Deletetry nyo po bumili ng higher class na micro SD (class 6 and up)..... na encounter ko na po to na problem CM burst user po ako ma dali lng nya ma dedetect and ma scan ang sd card.. and also sa messaging baka out of date po young date/time ng phone kaya na pupunta sa itaas ung new message...
Delete@SceneNatcher: Salamat for helping! I appreciate this. Tama ka, ngayon ko lang naalala na mapili ng SD card ang Flare sosyal na SD gusto nyan.hehehe kaya pala bumili ako ng Sandisk na SD para dito..hehehe One theory din po yan when it comes to messages. Baka rin sa network yan. :)
Deleteokay. thank you po :) malaking tulong po galing sa inyo :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome po. Visit again. :)
DeleteI bought my CM Burst last may 6 and so far i have no problem on this phone yet... i guess, it is the new version of burst because it is so smooth and fast... doesnt even lag when i open so many apps and games all at once. the internet experience is so fast that u dont have to wait for the loading process... is somebody know here how to have a free internet using this phone?
ReplyDeletecongrats to your burst.hehe however we avoid discussions here about free internet. :( go to symbianize.com or pinoyden to satisfy your curiousity. Hope this helped.
Deletehi according to the official website of CM..
ReplyDeletebattery specs of Flare is Lithium Ion 1500 mAH NOT 1600 mAH and also Burst
pero im planning to buy flare with extra battery hehe
sa lahat ng napagtanungan ko ok ang flare battery lng problem

http://www.cherrymobile.com.ph/products/smart-social/burst
TY po for pointing that out. i will edit this soon. nakamobile lng po kasi ako now. Nice idea po yan na bumili ng spare batt. meron po ngsasabi pwede ang s3 na battery. :)
DeleteKakanili ko lang ng flare kahapon. At curious talaga ako sa pag ruroot ng phone. May mga nag sabi na yung pag rurroot daw ng flare eh naghahang siya. Patulong naman ako after 1year para naman may warranty pa ako haha :)
ReplyDeletetotally not true...rooted flare ko pero di naman nanghahang...
Delete@anon: If you would want to relish your warranty then I advice you not to root it. However, if you really want to optimize your phones capacity then rooting is one way of achieving it. :) I hope nakatulong.
Delete@vinci: thanks! :)
ask ko lng po kung may screen protector na po ba agad ang CM Flare o CM Burst kung bibilhin? Please Reply..
ReplyDeletenung bumili ako nang burst may nakadikit na tapos my free pang case. :)
Delete@anon1: mayroon na po screen guards yan. pgbuy mo may plastic na nakalagay pro generic po yan na plastic hindi matibay na screen guard.
Delete@anon2: ty po. :)
maganda na rn po ba ang CM Burst sa Flare?
ReplyDeletenow po with the less buggy burst. it can really compete with the popular flare. :) ty for commenting.
Deleteaa ok..bibili kc kmi sa 18 e..Flare sna ung bibilhin nmin kso out of stock na dw kya Burst nlng..Halos same specs nmn kso pinagkaiba lng ung clock speed..thanks po :)
Deletebaka po magkastock ang flare ngayong 18..hehe yup i think obly clockspeed ang difference. i hope you can give us feedback soon on ur experience in using the burst/flare. TY for ur time. :)
DeleteMay ibang burst na may problema sa audio. like ung burst ko, i had to replace it 3 times ksi ung music player nia laging putol putol ang pag play. kaya naghanap nlng ako ng ibang phone na mabibili instead of sticking sa burst.
ReplyDelete@jhen if you're into music playing, try Sony Xperia Tipo Dual. nakasale na sya sa sony at 4900 ata basta nasa range sya nang 4k.
DeleteSony is bring the price down? But no doubt with the performance ng Sony products. Ang higpit kasi ng check nila. :)
Deleteand they are the one designing their own phones unlike our rebranded phones...mas optimized talaga OS nya sa hardware. Im a Sony users and no questions about quality and durability.
Deletekakabili q lng poh ng flare...bt ang bilis mag lowbat...d mkaabot ng 24h,,fb lng nman ang ginamit q,,,minsan stanby lng,,d rin aq ngtetex...tnx po
ReplyDeleteyes, it normal. why, take note our Flare is only using 1500mAh battery and its a dual core phone plus its an android, which is a power hungry mobile OS.
DeleteFor me normal lang po.:) Pero I got used to it. Sa akin naka1 day ako na walang charging. :)
DeleteHello po, just wanted to ask kung pano magsend ng music files sa burst? Di ko alam kung paano eh.. Thanks po :)
ReplyDeleteHello po, just wanted to ask kung pano magsend ng music files sa burst? Di ko alam kung paano eh.. Thanks po :)
ReplyDeletegive me a minute...aayusin ko lang flare ko at nabricked..
Deleteyou mean to say, kung paano magsend thru Bluetooth...dahil parehas lang naman ang Flare sa Burst...ito po gawin nyo...go to FILE MANAGER > OPEN YOUR MP3 > HOLD THAT FILE THEN > SEND lalabas lahat nang options patI Bluetooth. Hit THANK YOU kung nakatulong ako...hehehe...ala palang option na ganun dito...
Deletehahaha walang THANKS button dito vinci.hahaha hirap nyan iintegrate sa blogger platform..haha except kung forum siguro. :)
DeleteI just bought my burst yesterday.. May I ask? Madilim ba talaga sa dim light yung front camera nya? I mean for example sa room ko, dim light lang kasi gamit ko eh.. O maayos ba un sa setting? Please help po.. Thanks. God Bless.. ^___^
ReplyDeleteHindi po masyadong clear basta dim light ang burst. :( Pero workable din yan kapag ok ang lighting. :D
Delete@anon...VGA lang kasi and sabi mo pa dim light gamit mo...definitely grainy and mas marami kang noise artifact nyan...di lang naman Burst ang may ganyan. try mo kapag nasa maliwanag ka ok quality nya.
Deletenics patawa lang at nabricked ko si Flare...ito pala mangyayari kapag nireflash mo ulit si flare sa stock rom na V37...mawawala yung pagka-ROOT nya...twice kong ginawa and same result, UNROOT si Flare.
Deletehahaha gamitin mo na lang yung galaxy flare mo vinci. Nakastock rom pa itong sa akin. Natry ko ng flash noon pero luggish eh. Binalik ko na lang sa v37.hehe pero thru sdcard ako nagflash. :)
DeletePero I am sure kaya mong buhayin yan...hehehe yoko na iflash itong Flare ginagamit ko kasi sa work. Sana may extra phone para flashing galore..hehehe
Deletenics wag kang matakot magflash kasi pwede namang ireflash agad yung stock ROM ni Flare...walang problem sa ROM na di need CWM recovery. yung mga ROMs lang talaga like xperiaflare ang need pa CWM. try mo tambay sa xdadeveloper dun lang din ako natuto.
Deletevinci24 pala to...anon muna as office e...
DeleteHi Nico, just got my CM flare, TBW592241_8572_V000041, just wanna know if this was the latest update? I haven't explore this phone yet, twas a b-day gift from my bro... i've been reading blogs, reviews about this intriguing phone. Also, I wanna know what's the ideal microSD (brand, GB, class) to buy, it doesn't come up with a free one. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteyes it is, that's the latest FW for Flare...what android version yan...it is 4.0.4 or 4.1.1?
DeleteYes latest po yan. I think it is 4.0 ICS. In terms of SD, go for SanDisk (4GB). Yan kasi gamit ko. :) Pihikan po kasi ang Flare sa SDcard. Ipatry nyo na lang. :)
DeleteHi vinci24 & nico, android ver. 4.0.4 ics. thanks for the replies. so far in two days exploring the phone medyo different talaga experiencing android on this kinda unit. tagal ko na-stuck sa iphone and its a whole new experience on its u.i. can you guys suggest android apps that are worthy useful for this phone? i've put flipboard for a start.. many thanks!
Deletewattpad if you want free ebooks, camera 360, viber for free call/text via wifi...and my favorite photo app, PHOTOGRID...You may also use moborobo for backing/restoring of apps...check my post regarding Fusion Bolt at vinci24.blogspot.com andun yung link. ~ vinci24
Deletemaganda yang suggestions ni sir vinci.hehe simple lang sa akin. locker app, avast antivir, insta, fb, echofon,subway surfer..hehe depends on how you use ur fone po.just ask here para makatulong kami sa apps mo. :)
Deletehello again guys, would you know if both my numbers (dual sim accounts) can be both used for viber app? i mean both accounts functioning in the same phone (flare)? advance thanks to you and vinci24
Deletehey guys i noticed lately sa flare ko everytime i access my phonebook a red border flashes, its annoying and contacts seemed duplicates itself 3x... im bothered by it, is it possible it could be virus, bug or what? need your advice on this...many thanks again.
Deleteguys, need your opinion sa flare, lately whenever i scroll my phone-book contacts.. a flashing red border appears.. its annoying and it seems phone book contacts also has duplicated itself 3x... bothered by this, i hope you guys can share some advice how to manage this. thanks nico & vinci24
DeleteBaka nasync ang mga contacts mo from sim to google account tapos napuno ang phonebook mo. It would be best to bring it to a CM tech para matingnan. :)
Deleteanon...reset mo/factory setting...vinci24
Deletehirap sumagot sa daming anonymous na walang pangalan...

Nope...One number per unit lang po...unless may way ka to have 2 Viber apps sa isang unit mo. Viber is an App which will integrate to your phone not on you SIM. ~vinci24

ReplyDeletehi im planning to buy flare bukas here in CDO =) is this really a good phone??? im reading all the comments and i like some comments kaya i decided na to buy flare. kasi ang gusto ko talaga is the FLAME kaya lang may na basa ako na hindi user friendly ang wifi or any internet connections sa flame. hindi daw maka connect directly sa wifi mahal pa naman its 7k round off.
@Michay Flare user here

Again, if you're into browsing a lot, get the Fusion Bolt or any phone with at least 2000mAh battery.
@Michay: Hi fellow Kagay-anon!hehe
DeleteI am quite happy marami nang Kagay-anon on this blog.hehe Tama si sir vinci sa pros and cons. But I talked to one Graphics agent and they said that the new releases are better in audio and gyro. If you are looking for a phone, then I recommend this. You should try the model first before purchasing.
Try the audio first. Insert a sim at tawagan mo yung unit. If are unsatisfied marami ka pang pagpipilian. Ang dami pang stocks sa graphics nakita ko nung election day.hehe
They should me the new releases and it has software updater. Parang balak ng CM na mag OVER THE AIR na update ng Jellybean.
@vinci: sir yung bagong release may updater and they have a software update. Sabi ng technician sa Graphics dito sa CDO baka OTA ang JB update. :)
ok lang kahit DL nang ROM nalang then manual update gamit stock recovery. BTW wala an pala Flare ko nabenta ko na tapos ko nang nakalikot e...atsaka di ko na kinaya ang battery nya...ito pala natry nyo na to para makasave nang battery...ilagay nyo brightness ni Flare sa 0% tignan nyo malinaw pa din. vinc24
Deletewaht i really like about Flare, meron syang Panorama shot (nagagamit ko sa paghahike. gusto ko itry CM OmayGad...tempting yung review ni hubpages kasi... vinci24

DeleteBought a Burst last week. Performance wise e okay nmn xa. Rooted and Tweaked(Personal Custom ROM), ito 6 hrs. Gaming(straight) 12+hrs Wifi(likewise) Snappy and d nag'llag s mga HD games (Cut the Rope). So far, mas gusto q n ang Burst kesa s Flare ng pinsan q kase s handling size. :)
ReplyDeletethanks for this review paul. marami na ang likers ng burst kasi less buggy. hope you can visit again and help out others. :)
Deletewild guess lang to...feeling ko pareho lang FW ni Flare and Burst...
DeleteSan po magkakastock ng Flare sa 18?
ReplyDeleteManila-based po kayo? Baka mayroon nyan sa SM, baka lang. Hindi po kasi ako manila based. Hanap-hanap lang po. :)

DeleteI bought my flare 1 month ago and been happy with it, no problem with the battery snayan lang, it depends on how you use yur phone, I play high graphics games, music, txt, abot sya hanggang paguwi ko from work then charge it to full pra nxt day use....recomendable for its price....
ReplyDeleteDepende po talaga sa use yan. But most of the time nagiging gaming console ang phone due to apps. :)
DeleteThanks for for your tips. Ganyan din ginagawa ko noon. :)
Ano po mas magandang bilhin ung flare,burst o ung hyper po?? Salamat
ReplyDeletebetween the 3, pinaka ok po ang hyper. Yung hyper kasi parang pinalaki na Flare. :)
Deletenaghahang po yung burst ko
ReplyDeletepano po kaya gagawin ko para di maghang ang burst ko? need reply po.
ReplyDeleteMarami po dahilan bakit ng hang. Baka software or hardware. Try uninstalling not needed apps para mas maraming space. Or let technicians look at it baka kasi hardware issue yan. Sana nakatulong. :)
Deletei'll settle with cm burst, bukod sa laging walang stock ang flare, OP pa price dito sa paranaque. i will not go a long way just to get a flare na 3999, sayang pamasahe. besides di naman laging 100% ginagamit ang 2 cores, pang candy crush saga and sms, fb on the go lang naman and some music
ReplyDeletebtw nice blog :)
Yan ang dapat gamit ng android, a little gaming and social interaction. Ginagawa kasing gaming console ang phone kaya madaling malowbatt. Pero di ko sila masisi ang sarap kasi paglaruan..hahaha
DeleteThanks for leaving a comment jjay. I appreciate your effort in writing this and complimenting my work. :)
Sana makavisit ka ulit.
i think i might get CM flare.. those retailers selling overpriced flares dropped to 3999php .. now i'll for with flare instead sa sahod. haha.
DeleteSana may stocks po pagnaka sahod po kayo. :)
Deletegot the flare just today .. bud sadly ... nung nabili ko na paglabas ko sa mall nakita ko may inaabot na flyers. CM burst for only 3499php may31 til june2 only.
Deletehaha ok na din to
bibili sana aq ng phone pag sumahod na aq sa trbaho.hindi ko alam kong alin ang magandang phone sabi ng mga katropa ko maganda daw ay flare sabi ng iba daw burst daw lagi daw out of stock ang flare hindi ko alam kung ano ang maganda flare or burst pumunta aq sa sm santarosa sabi ng iba sakin maganda talaga ang flare dahil gasing bilis daw ng flare ang htc desire x tunay poba yon???
ReplyDeleteTama po yang ginawa nyo na nagtanong-tanong kayo bago bumili. I am also a flare user. In terms of performance ok po tlga. I am not so sure about the Flare being compared to the HTC desire. Wala po kasi akong HTC phone, mahal kasi.hehe but in terms of benchmark scores Flare is in the top heap. Kaya di ka magsisisi basta dala ka lang ng charger. :)
DeleteMay available p kyang cm flare jan sa CdeO? I was planning to buy ksi pgblik ko jan, laging out of stock dto sa Bicol e..
ReplyDeleteNice blog! Two thumbs-up Nico!:)
Last time I went to Graphics mejo ubusan na rin ng Flare. But mayroon na mang Burst. Ang di ko nakita ulit ang Skyfire 2.0... Sana pagbalik mo dito cdo mayroon pang Flare. :)
Deletesa opinyon nyo po ano mas
ReplyDeleteok alcatel inspire 2 or cm flare?
performance & specs
pinagpipilian ko po kasi ung flare & inspire 2
ReplyDeletetulong naman po sa pagdecide. tnx
I go for the inspire 2.hehehe mas ok kasi walang issues. :)
DeleteCurious lang po ako... bakit po kailangan pang I Mod and battery S3? Diba pwede namang ilagay nalang sa Flare? anu nga ba purpose nung pang Mod ng S3 battery?
ReplyDeleteMahaba po kasi ang battery ng Flare. yung S3 maliit xa pero ang mga connections sa battery saktong sakto kaya mod tawag nila dyan lalagyan ng pampahaba para swak talaga sa height. Sana nakatulong. :)
DeleteKung sa battery lang po, wag nyo laruin ng laruin ung mga HD games, lakas makaubos ng battery yun. Sa internet naman, TM subscriber po ako, ASTIGFB15 valid for 2days, nakakasurf/browse ako. Try nyo bumili ng powerbank, extrabattery rin yun. Sa sounds naman, try nyo ung poweramp, may PREAMP kasi sya, increase ur sounds. Tsaka depende sa earphone na gamit nyo. Tsaka naka custom rom po ako, nakaroot sya. Ang bilis ng performance. Sana makatulong po @jrpeteza
ReplyDeleteThanks dito sa mga suggestions mo. Ok talaga ang flare pero kelangan na ma.adddress mo ang issues on your own. :)
DeletePwedi kaya sdcard na kingstone 32gb class10
ReplyDeleteilang oras tinatagal nyo sa gaming hmm :D
Ok yand SD mo. Gaming, mga 6 hours lang...lalo na kung continuos..naku bring ka nang charger. :)
DeleteAsk lang po... bkit yung ibang tao may modded battery na tinatawag... para saan po ba ang pag mod ng battery?
ReplyDeleteYung stock battery ng flare is 1500 mAh. Ang moded kasi 2200 mAh lalo na from Samsung S3. :)
Deletediba kahit ndi na i mod ung battery gagana parin sa Flare... balak ko bumili ng S3 battery pero may nabasa ako sa net na modded daw... anu ba purpose nun? bkit kailangan pang imod?
DeleteAsk ko lang po.... pwidi din siyang pang video call sa skype?
ReplyDeleteI want to buy pero I fell dought it kasi baka hindi magamit yong front camera for Skype video calling.... pwidi po ba?
ReplyDeletePwede po gamitin front cam ng Flare for skyping. :)
Deletemerong radio yung burst, kaya I think patas lang.
ReplyDeleteMeron din po ang Flare but you have to update it. :)
Deletepwde po b s skype video call ang burst ask ko lang poh
ReplyDeleteopo pwede skype sa burst. :)
DeleteAno po masmaganda phone bilhin Burst or Flare? Ung Flare ba po paghindi nakaroot, same great quality pa rin?
ReplyDeletein terms of user reviews mas ok ang burst. pero if you need support go for Flare. :) Hindi nakaroot Flare ko. Stock ROM ako satisfied na man. :)
DeleteSana makabili n rin aq ng flare :)
ReplyDeleteI want it to be my first android phone...
hehehehe pwede rin ang Flare 2.0...save ka na lang ng 5k. :)
DeleteSir if I may ask, yung sa battery ba ng CM Flare na sinasabing pwede gamitin yung sa S3, kelangan pa ba ng modifications para doon at hindi naman delikadong icharge kung sakali? thanks. planning to buy kasi e. hehe
ReplyDeleteParang lalagyan lang ng papel sa baba ng battery. yun lang. Di ko pa kasi natry yan pero find youtube videos mayroon po nyan. :)
DeleteSir may freebies ba if bumili ka sa cdo graphics ng CM Flare?
ReplyDeleteNot sure po if mayroon freebies. :) Pero you can always ask if mayroon. :) Noong bumili ako ng Click wala freebies..bag lang. :)
Deletesir nico, may balak po sana ako bumili ng android phone. alin po mas maganda, flare or hyper? nalilito na ako eh.hehe. *tnx :)
ReplyDeletemas maganda hyper. :) But if you want the best ngayon, go for CM Omega HD 2.0.
DeleteGuys ok lang ba kapag ginagamit mo flare mo,tuland ng pag lalaro ng games, habang nag chaharge d ba yan masisira?
ReplyDeleteavoid playing na lang po while charging para tumagal device nyo. :)
Deletetnx sa pag reply,,,,,tlaga bang madali tong malowbat? :)
DeleteYup madali po pero if hindi masyadong ginamit magtatagal po tlaga. Pero if gaming here and there talagang malowbatt po yan. Kahit ibang phone (branded or locally made) madaling malowbatt. :)
Deletekuya nicO ,naka update na ba ang flare kapag bumili ka ngayun sa mall,at panu po ba i update ang flare sa latest? kailangan ba tlaga mag update? :))
ReplyDeletedami questions ah..hehe hindi po guarantee na if ngayon mo nabili updated yan. No update available for Flare to be Jelly bean. Hindi kailangan iupdate optional po yan.
Deletehey nico calunia hndi ba madali masira ang flare..i was planning to buy one..kaya lang i have my doubts..may mga nagsasabi kase na madali daw masira..at kung makakakuha ka naman ng matibay na cherry mobile branded phone its like choosing with ur eyes close...
ReplyDeleteDepende rin po sa gamit yan. Yung Flare ko ok na man hanggang ngayon. Walang problema. Pero if gamer ka kahit anong phone madali pong masira. :)
DeleteMabilis po ba talagang malowbat ang flare. balak ko po kasing bumili this monday.
ReplyDeleteplease reply
battery specification naman po sir :)
thanks !!
Battery specification? Wla po nyan.. battery capacity lang po. Yup madaling malowbatt ang Flare pero magagawan yan ng paraan para di madali malowbatt. ;)
