@NicoCalunia
i'd go for diamond for the 12mp camera and watch HD movies. the only games i'll put there are Angry Birds and Fruit Samurai, or any other games that a 4 year old can play (for my daughter). but if diamond vs OHD, i'd go OHD :)
ReplyDeletehahaha gawa ako ng Diamond vs OHD?hehehe baka mamaya. :)
Deletenics repost mo nalang yung ginawa ko na comparison dito regarding SMD and OMD...~vinci24
Deletepara sa mga medyo tamad mag google at switch tab, mas maganda kung meron royal rumble ng pinagpipiliian ng mga noypis. (Cherry mobile OHD, and Skyfire 2.0, Starmobile Diamond, flagship ng O+, at MyPhone.
Delete:D
Kryptonian...dapat flagship droid lang na same specs para maganda laban...i'll do one pagbalik ko galing mt. isarog.
Deletedual core phones with same specs like SM Diamond, CM Omega HD, MP A919 Duo, O+ 8.12
quad core phones like CM Skyfire 2.0 and Flame 2.0, O+ 8.15, and MP A919i Duo.
then compare din natin pinoy flagship droids versus Galaxy S3/S4, HTC 0ne, Xperia Z/ZL, etc.
let the game begin....
ok yun Mr. Vinci.
DeleteHahahaha galing ng mga napili nyo ah..hehehe
Delete@vinci: ok lang irepost ko yung article mo? I will just give you credits for your work. Ok lang? :)
Gawin na lang kaya kitang Contributor dito? Send ako ng invite ha? :)
nics...dagdagan mo yung sa Skyfire 2.0...5-inch qHD IPS scratch resistant display. vinci24
ReplyDeleteNa.edit ko na. :)
Deletesir nico calunia.naalala niyo pa ko ako ung nagtanong kung ano mas maganda sa flame 2.0 tsaka flare.wala pa rin akong nabibili hehehe..dami kasing lumalabas na magagandang phone ng CM eh.kanina dapat bibili na kami ng omega hd kaso wala daw stock. ngayon ko lng nalaman tong skyfire 2.0.ano pong mas ok same price lang din naman sya tapos in stock pa sya.pa help po ulit kung okay lang..:)
ReplyDeleteHi angelo! Glad you are back..hehehe hirap magdecide?hehehehe Heto comments about the Skyfire 2.0. Ok po ang Skyfire according to those who purchased it. Basahin nyo na lang po ang comments doon. Buy na habang may stocks..hehehe Hirap tlga sa CM maraming bumibili kayo out of stock agad.hehehe
DeleteI must say although 12MP ang sa diamond, halos pareho lang sila ng quality ng Skyfire 2. so i'd choose Skyfire 2 just because of it's fast processor.
ReplyDeleteYou are right here sir/maam. Particular po ako sa price eh..kaya skyfire din ako (bias..hahahaha). But the Starmobile Diamond sa BSI cam kaya ok na ok po quality ng pictures. :)
Deleteskyfire 2.0...kasi kung need ko nang 12mp BSI camera dun ako kay Omega HD. lets face it...way cheaper si skyfire and Omega HD kesa kay SM Diamond. di ko talaga gets kung bakit di nakikipagsabayan si Starmobile when it comes to pricing kay Cherry Mobile. yung pricing nila malapit na kila Lenovo, O+, and Alcatel. ~vinci24
Deletehahaha price nga ang una sa isip...hehehe tama ka sir vinci starmobile should go for lesser price para makasabay sa sales ng cherry. But I guess di nila kaya isacrifice ang quality ng phones. :D
Deletekasi as stated sa blog ko...same lang naman sila nang supplier ni CM...CM OMD is rebranded IQ6 while while SMD is a rebranded IQ4, so quality is not an issue here since galing sila sa isang manufacturer. the only difference is the front camera...2mp for OMD and 3mp for SMD...mas mataas pa nang 100mAh yung battery ni OMD kesa kay SMD. parang di justified yung price nya na almost 2k higher para lang sa 1mp na front camera. mali marketing strategy. think of CM na nauubusan pa sila nang stocks dahil sa mababang presyo at the same time magandang specs.

Deleteshould i sell my ipod touch 5th gen to buy omega hd/skyfire2.0?
ReplyDeleteHenge suggestion :)
hello pls....till what is the best CM or STM
DeleteNever tried STM...basta ako happy and satisfied CM Fusion Bolt user
DeleteCm user din ako. Balance ang price and quality. :)
DeleteAnon...stay with your iTouch 5. Unless you dont need it anymore. Just buy gmate to turn your itouch into an iPhone.
ReplyDeleteYan disadvantage ng iOS over android kelangan mong bilhin...hehehe TY dito sir vinci. :)
DeleteSir good day.. ano po itong gmate? Meron din kase akong ipod 5th gen but was thinking kung ibenta ko na for cm fone.
Deletebought skyfire 2.0 this morning and satisfied naman ako. tanong ko lang, talaga ba mabilis ma-lowbat and bat ng skyfire 2.0?
ReplyDeleteyeah i think mabilis ma low bas specially pag lagi naka On yung wifi or 3g.
DeletePag nasa bahay kasi ako lagi naka on yung Wifi sa skyfire ko, pansin ko na good for one day lang.
Pero pag naka off yung wifi, brightness set to Automatic and GPS off mas matagal ang standby nya.
Pansin ko din na mahina yung vibrate alert nya hehe.
So far i think i can manage. Hindi pa naman nag cacause ng problem yung phone ko ngayon. ;)
ganun din gawa ko ngayon. weird thing iis, pag nag wifi ako sa ibang lugar e medyo nainit un unit pero pag sa bahay e hindi nmann nainit.
ReplyDeletedapat bang may antivirus?
ReplyDeleteano pala ma-recommend nyo na games for children? angry birds lang kasi ang nakalagay sa ngayon. :)
If nasa bahay kasi consistent ang wifi signal. If sa ibang lugar mawawala po signal strength kaya umiinit. :)
DeleteGames for children? Candy Crush, Light Bulb, Temple Run, Hill Climb. :) Panglalaki po yata narecommend ko. :)
bakit po yung upper part ng sky fire umiinit.. kakabili ko Lang po ngaun Pero d dn nmn gnun ktgal
ReplyDeleteAno po ginagawa nyo nang uminit. :) Yung Click din umiinit but not as hot compared sa Flare. :)
Deletepara saken e malaking advantage ung 1.2GHz Snapdragon S4 Quad-Core ng skyfire.. maganda nga ang display masasaalang alang nmn un ung performance...tama ba?? confuse kasi ako e..di nanaman masama ang 8MP camera at 5-inch qHD IPS scratch resistant ??
ReplyDeleteSa understanding ko, wala po masyadong connection between display size and processor. Yung LCD mas connected sa battery kaysa sa processor. :)
Deletebumili ako khapon ng skyfire 2.0.bkit po maya mayat di n nmn aq mka connect sa internet nag avail aq nung sa smart n promo..nagi2ng gray ung kulay ng signal.tas di n nmn mka connect.
ReplyDeleteGanyan din nangyayari sa globe or smart sa phone ko (LG C-199 and CM Click)...parang ganyan tlga TELCOs natin. :(
Deletehow about my phones a9a1i against ohd 2.0? can u check on that sir?
ReplyDeleteI will try it soon..sori mejo busy kasi..:( pero in terms of price go for ohd 2. :)
DeleteI'D GO FOR SKYFIRE 2.0 it like Anne Curtis vs Vice Ganda
ReplyDeleteOk rin naman STM pero sa price mejo malayo po sa CM. :)

sir star mobile diamond vs cm omega hd vs mp a919i anung pipiliin mu at bkt?
ReplyDeleteAnu po mas mganda sa gaming? Diamond v7? or Skyfire 2.0?
ReplyDeleteAsk ko lang sir nico, never ka pa ba bumalik sa cm para ipaayos ang cm phone mo? Im really concerned with the reliability of the fone. Gusto ko tlga ng quadcore and hoping to buy galaxy fones kaso appealing mga price nitong cm,stm at mp. Also considering o+.
ReplyDeletehi sir nico.. hindi po kaso ako techy peeo gsto ko po bumili ng fone na sulit at worth it naman. ano po ba mas ok wen it comes to camera? starmobile or cherry? :) nsa 6-7k lng budget ko. hoho.. sana po makareply ka. thank you po :)
