Firefly Mobile Intense Power: 13MP Sony camera, 5,000mAh battery for Php4K

Ok ba itong brand na to o sirain din? Ok kasi specs at price eh

Bought one yesterday 13 Mar sa SM Muntinlupa, and to answer some of the questions here:

Removable Battery? Yes

Dual Sim? Yes (Pero unlike the info on the box na 1 Micro and 1 Standard, nope both are micro)

OTG Capable? Nope, tried it several times and failed.

Expandable Storage? Yes (Tried my 64GB SD Card but it won’t read it immediately, but it does read it, while my 32GB card has no problem being identified — same speed lang yung 2)

Freebies:

1 Screen Protector (Installed)
1 TG (Can be installed on the 8th day after the 7 day replacement period)
1 basic Phone
1 Jelly case

Antutu: 20K

Cons:

• This phone is heavy and bulky but fits the pocket (pants not skinny jeans :D )
• The phone is fluid for general use but not for games (Even CoC and Candy Crush is a bit laggy)
• Loudspeaker is a softspeaker (putting headphones on is a different story, the sound level and clarity is a very much welcome)
• Takes 0.5 to 2 seconds to take a picture. HDR is far from looking good.
• There is a gap on the screen, contrary to the OGS claim.
Update: I mentioned that the battery endurance is amongst the pro last time but apparently it’s not. The battery can last over a day but for 5000mAH, I expected longer. My Note 5 can last almost the same number of hours.

Pros:

1. The available Gestures to open the screen/unlock the phone is a welcome addition (but a bit too much and there is no option to turn off some of them).
2. Already at Android 5.1
3. very minimal to almost no bloatware (except for the Firefly Mobile app that doesn’t work), even Google Apps are not present (which I personally like), leaving 12GB+ available space.
In between
• Picture and Video quality specs is decent but there are tons of other phones which has better output.
• The unit design

Bumili ako nito nung March 19, pwede na rin kaso nga medyo mabigat sya ok nmn ang response ng phone medyo di nga lang ganun katagal ang battery for 5000mAh. So far 4k nmn saka may freebies pa san k pa.

have this phone for almost a week and cant say if its a good phone or not because..

– performance wise its fast no question about it just keep your apps updated.
– battery last long even with wifi and bluetooth both turned on.(i always use bluetooth headset the whole day)
just keep in mind that don’t use battery hogging apps it will really deplete the battery fast.
– while using bluetooth and wifi at the same time. the wifi connection suddenly drops. not sure if this happens to others.
– 13mp main camera was a bit weird sometimes tama ang color reproduction and sometimes mali . dont know if its because the software it use or the camera hardware it self. but hey they said that its using sony exmor rs maybe =).
– 8mp bsi camera ….. wag umasa lalo na pag madilim swear.
– it has a freaking chinese recovery haha..
– im not sure if this happen to you guys but after running a certain benchmark app viola shut of si intense power turned it back on after the firefly logo and android black screen..SOLUTION put it to chinese test mode or recovery mode not sure what it is coz its chinese.. VOLUME UP + POWER try and try until ma access ang factory test mode/recovery mode then click VOLUME again to access the factory test run all the test then reboot phone LOWER CHINESE WORD yung option. phone will wipe all user data and problem fixed,
– it charge super slow while using the provided charger.. try to use different charger maybe samsung or sony charge see if it charge faster.

cpu that it use hndi ko alam kasi it said SC8830 if you use a phone identifier app but if you look it up on its build.prop it says SC7731 ,, cheers!!! for the manufacturer if this phone pinasakit niyo ulo ko..

4K price tag for this phone SULIT if average user ka lang..
still figuring a way to compile custom rom for it..

Any other feedback po?

Can i ask ano pong oem nito?

Patingin sa Apps “Droid Inspector” cpu info nito sa Hardware-MTK????…thnks.

kakabili ko lang, blank screen na agad after 3 days. firefly logo then android then blank screen na. tnry ko yung volume down + power, “no commands” daw ang putek.
