Cherry Mobile M1 First Mediatek X20 Smartphone Price Specs Philippines

Today, Cherry Mobile announced their newest smartphone with Mediatek X20 - Cherry Mobile M1! A First for the Philippine Market that is.



Cherry Mobile M1 comes in 5.5 inch Full HD 1080p IPS Display that lies under chrome frame with brushed curved back. Dual Speakers are on the front. 3.5mm audio jack is located on top sid. At the bottom is the USB Type-C Port and Mic. On the Left side is the sim card slot compartment. On the right side is the volume rocker and power botton.


Cherry Mobile and Mediatek is proud to announced that it will be the first smartphone Mediatek X20 to be release in the market that is complimented with 4GB RAM and 32GB Internal Storage. With new processor, Cherry Mobile M1 did performed well with flawless navigation and launching of apps and games.

Here is the Antutu Benchmark of Cherry Mobile M1:


It placed second only to Huawei Ascend Mate 8 at 90806 score. For local brand to compete with the big boys, it is surely showing its power.


Complete sets of Sensors from Accelerometer, Light, Orientation, Proximity, Magnet, Pressure and Gyroscope. Yes, this would definitely be compatible with VR.



We tried NBA 2K16 at High Settings and it did show some lag but you can manage to play it. For smoother play try in an aircon cool environment or set some visual settings to medium for smoother game play.

As for optics, it is said to make use of Sony IMX 230 1/2.4 Exmor RS Sensor for its 21MP Rear Camera as supported with Dual-Tone LED Flash. It also packs a 8MP Front Facing Camera that is also supported with Selfie Flash. Should be able to deliver improved outputs for still shots as well as videos.


With it's bigger sensor, i did expect it to give clarity photos but output turn out bland and blurry, underexposed. This can be attributed with auto settings of camera which is incorrectly set and an f/2.8 aperture!

We found some lines on our outputs, this is a bad sign. Night shot are blurry, again due to auto settings with higher iso making it grainy with faster shutter. Aperture f/2.8, with this a smaller opeing of the camera so less light enters the sensors.


Selfies did come out well way better than back camera. Cherry Mobile needs to work out the camera as it does not fully utilize the sensor as well as they need to fix camera software bugs.

It will have the full set of connectivity from WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, NFC as well as LTE cellular data. This is a Dual Sim handset. Other than that it carries a USB Type-C port which should deliver USB-OTG support, faster data and fast charging.



Cherry Mobile M1 will also have personalized security as it packs a Fingerprint Sensor.

Battery is at 3600mAh Non-Removable.

Priced at 11,999 Pesos, the Cherry Mobile trumps their competition in terms of Performance with its partnership with Mediatek powering their Cherry Mobile M1 with Helio X20. However, Camera was poor even with it a very dependable sony camera sensor. We expected a flagship killer but Cherry Mobile fell short in the optics department. If you are a gamer, this might be for you but if you are into photography, not this one.
