So heres the review of Cherry Mobile W900 The Dragon Phone

I have mine now for four days. SO far its performing good

Screen:
The screen is really good. You can view pictures and videos well. The only drawback is when using it outside(other phones are also like this). The screen is also pretty large enough for internet, video streming and texting.

Camera:
The phone has two cameras 5mp rear and VGA front. The back camera is good even without flash durin daytime or in properly lit areas. But using it in din areas isnt good enough. But still you can use night mode to make it better. Theres nothing I can say about the VGA camera which is also performing good, it's better to have this than nothing.

Connections:
Both Wi-Fi and 3G works well. While using them I render pages quickly. Even watching long videos in youtube is fast.


Ports:
The way they designed the hedset port isnt so good. Most of the time you will find yourself pushing the headset because its quite loose. On the other hand both the usb port and headset port are still good as they have protection flaps.

Battery:
Battery is the major drawback here. With heavy texts it would only last 18 hours while for straight internet usage plus downloads in Playstore you would only get 5-6 hours. I suggest you get two batteries. But it's still good because my cousins galaxy s2 only last 6 hours on heavy texting as this one have 18 hours.

Conclusion and Performance:
This phone performs well especially for people like me who is not "maarte" in phones. I do not regret at all in buying this phone knowing that the brand isnt so reliable. One thing that also pushed me to buy this is because it is made and manufactured in Korea(SK-S150 is the original model). Overall the phone is good including its designs.

:yipee::excited::clap::beat::dance::lol::rofl::thumbsup::salute::lmao:
 
magkano yan?sabi ng ate mdali daw madira ang cherry mobile.
 
Got mine also.. Performance wise, very nice.. Actually everything is working fine and perfect... like you said the drawback is the battery life. i used to charge twice a day.. but overall its pretty good for my 6K worth of money... :)

just want to know if anyone try to ROOT this W900? or is it rootable?

okay..probably yung ibang Cherry talaga eh mabilis masira. Pero hindi naman siguro especially a rebranded like this one. This phone is actually from Korea where in you can find one of the best mobile manufacturers(Samsung).

Got mine also.. Performance wise, very nice.. Actually everything is working fine and perfect... like you said the drawback is the battery life. i used to charge twice a day.. but overall its pretty good for my 6K worth of money... :)

yeah. its a bit frustrating pagdating sa battery. still you can have another battery as soon as cherry releases accessories for this. anyway, awhile ago,while intializing the g-sensor,my phone hangged and rebooted but it stuch on the cherry mbile logo. whatb i did id to remove that battery and it worked. what do you think is the reason?

So far nothing major. Well there are two.
First, my Memory Card kind of destroyed because all of my installed apps disappered including my files when i rebooted the phone my files are recovered except the apps. then when i went to the menu everthing is interchanged for example when u will click the settings the calculator will show up etc. I rebooted it again and everythin went okay until now. I guess its with the SD Card.

Second, just awhile ago when I tried to initialize my g sensor my phone hanged up and rebooted automatically but was stucked at Cherry Mobile logo. I removed the battery and turned on and thats it its all ok. Im 99% sure that the cause was i did not placed the phone to a falt surfaced as the instructions indicated. When i tried to initialize it again on a flat box,it initialized properly.

I do not take these as major problems. But the first one I mentioned is kind of mysterious. But still I'm contented with my phone. And probably be more contented when they will release ICS update id there will be(I hope so)..

Anyway, how can we make this the officcial thread for fellow users?
