Yesterday, Happy Man by Starmobile officially announces their newest addition under the Up series which is the UP NEO.
Judging by the specs, the Up Neo is your usual octa-core smartphone from local brands. It has a 5.3-inch IPS display with an HD resolution. Well, the screen size is a bit unusual but you'll get used to it anyway. Running inside the device is a MediaTek MT6592M chipset which is a slightly tuned down version of MT6592. It is paired with 1GB of RAM and it has 16GB of internal storage which, thankfully is expandable via microSD card up to 32GB.
Talking about the camera, it has a 13-megapixel autofocus rear-camera with BSI and f/2.2 aperture and of course, an LED flash. One can say that it can perform very well since Starmobile is known for their smartphone cameras. If you're a selfie lover, you'll be happy to hear that it has a 5-megapixel front shooter coupled with another LED flash.
It has 3G HSPA+, Dual-SIM capabilities, WI-FI, Bluetooth, and GPS w/A-GPS and othet stuffs. What's unusual here is that it also comes with an IR blaster so basically, your octa-core phone can now double as a remote control. Well, basically, you can use it for your TV's, Radios, and other remote-controlled appliances as long as you have the code to pair with.
I can simply notice that Starmobile is doing something strange here, first, they unveiled a bunch of devices with digital-TV and here they are unveiling a device which can double as a remote. (Well, forget about this, HeHe)
Last but not the least, it has a 2,500mAh battery which I think is enough for casual day to day usage.
It also runs on Android Lollipop out of the box since the MediaTek is not yet releasing the source code for Android Lollipop for their MT6592 and MT6592M chipset. (Just a little info so you'll not blame the manufacturers)
So it retails for P6,490.00 but if you want true value for money, then you can check the Flare X which is priced the same.
