“Cherry Mobile… Take my money….” Those are words in my mind today while witnessing the launch of Cherry Mobile’s new smartphone, the Omega HD. Hi-definition display smartphones are now more accessible to the public. This new flagship phone will certainly give its users a feel of having a premium smartphone. Cherry Mobile has done it again – providing access to owning premium smartphones without spending too much.

But wait… There’s more.
When the event is about to end, everyone in the event was surprised by another announcement. We only expected Cherry Mobile to launch the Omega HD – because that’s what’s on the invitation – but we were surprised to know that they announced another one — Flame 2.0, their first quad core phone.
I am amazed by this smartphone since it has some features of the leading brands but at a more affordable price. It also has picture in picture technology where in you can take photos and record videos using both cameras. You probably heard that the recently announced Galaxy S4 has that kind of technology. Not too shabby, Cherry Mobile. It has a 1.2 quad core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor, which makes it really fast compared to the previous releases of Cherry Mobile. It has a very smooth interface and can compete with some of the leading smartphone brands. Should I say, quite better that some of those?

Both smartphones will be available in April, so expect an Omega HD and Flame 2.0 Day. Now, the big question still lingers in my head – when will they ever launch the 2nd iteration of Flare?
