Starmobile Flirt: Best Budget Camera Smartphone Powerhouse

Starmobile has unveiled another Android smartphone up only for a limited time, the Starmobile Flirt. It's a 4.5" qHD smartphone running on Jellybean and has an awesome 12MP rear camera with BSI (backside illumination sensor/ back-illuminated sensor).

What I feel is amazing about this budget phone is that it uses BSI sensors that really help with illuminating the photos even under low light conditions. With Android's Jelly Bean OS and its dual cpu core processor, the unit is sure to run smoothly at least more or less with basic functionalities. RAM size could cause a bit of a glitch from time to time especially with heavy graphics and gaming, but it shouldn't be an issue for games like Angry Birds and Temple Run. 

With it's price point starting at around Php 9,290 and in hues of Ultra Blue and Ultra Red this unit is by far quite an eye candy. Starmobile is even throwing in a free screen protector and and a memory card. 

Here's the full specs:

  • 4.5-inch qHD display (540 x 960) @ 245 ppi
  • 1GHz dual-core MTK6577 CPU
  • 512MB RAM
  • 4GB internal memory
  • micro SD card up to 32GB
  • 12 megapixel rear BSI camera
  • 3 megapixel front-facing BSI camera
  • 3G
  • WiFi
  • GPS
  • Bluetooth A2DP
  • 1,700mAh battery
  • Android 4.1 Jellybean132 x 66.6 x 9.5 mm
  • Dual-SIM
Overall, I feel that this is a pretty solid device with a lot to offer those that are on a budget but wants a phone that doesn't sacrifice on picture quality. So all you cam-whores who wants the benefits of a good point and shoot device at a price point that'll leave you more room for spending on your looks than on the phone itself, this is a pretty tempting device to check out. Plus it pretty much uses Jelly Bean's basic skin so you won't have the hassles of over bloated software while enjoying the full benefits of Google's latest project butter feel and Google Now functionalities.
