THL launches T200, priced at Php14,999

Following the successful debut of the T100 aka Monkey King II in the local market, Novo7 Tech (official distributor of THL in the country) has formally launched THL T200 (Cyborg) – a 6-inch smartphone powered by eight (8) Cortex-A7 processor.

Just by merely looking at its specs sheet, we can safely assume that the THL Cyborg has the best feature set among the other three local octa-core smartphones (Cherry Mobile Cosmos Z2 10, MyPhone Agua Infinity and Starmobile Diamond X1) that came before it.

Right on the onset, you’ll be greeted by its gorgeous, Gorilla-Glass-3-laden, 6-inch 1080p display with IPS and OGS technologies to boot. Once you go a little deeper, you’ll find a very respectable engine configuration consisting of a 1.7GHz octa-core chip with 2GB of RAM, as well as a sizeable 32GB internal storage which can be further expanded up to an additional 64GB via Micro-SD card.

There’s also a pair of snappers located at the front (8MP, 1080p video recording) and the back (13MP Sony Blue Lens sensor with F/2.0 optics) which looks very promising, on paper at least.
