Cherry Mobile outs an Android Phone with Alphanumeric Keys

You are reading the title right — Cherry Mobile has released a new device that features alphanumeric keys and Google’s Android operating system right out of the box.

It’s called the Click, and powering it is a dual-core chip and Android 4.4 KitKat. What’s really interesting about this device is that the company managed to squeeze in the whole Android OS on a 2.8-inch display, but is deemed to be controlled with a pointer as illustrated on its four-directional navigation key and the mouse click button at the middle. There are also dedicated shortcut keys for messaging, Facebook, mobile browsing, and the brand’s own Fun Club app.

Cherry Mobile Click (2017) key specs:
2.8-inch TFT LCD display
1.0GHz Dual Core chip (probably a Mediatek MT6572)
256MB RAM
512MB internal storage
expandable up to 32GB via microSD
5MP rear camera with LED Flash
1.3MP front camera
Dual-SIM, Dual Standby
3G
Bluetooth
WiFi
Android 4.4 KitKat

Cherry Mobile also has a device back in 2013 of the same name but is a touchscreen device featuring Android ICS. As seen on a retailer’s profile, it’s now being rolled out in Cherry Mobile stores and Kiosks sporting a Php1,499USD 26INR 2,165EUR 24CNY 186 price tag.

  1. My dream phone! Lets run antutu haha

  2. This is actually nice. Been looking for a basic phone featuring alphunameric keys with at least 3G or wifi capable, at least to no avail. I was even expecting that Nokia would release such a device since they’re now back at making/remaking basic phones again… but this CM Alpanum phone with 3G+wifi (obviously for being an android phone that it is) is something that I’ve been looking forward to materialize and it’s good to know that CM has made it possible. Yih.

  4. battery mah?

    • None specified in the box. We’re leaning on a 900-1200mah battery given the price tag and the overall build of the device.

  5. Sana may malaki pang specs jan kahit 1gb ram 5mp cam. sulit na

  6. the concept actually makes sense: a “basic” barfone that can provide internet connectivity (via hotspot) for your high-end wifi tablet. since 3g to at android, im sure pwede siya mag hotspot.
