O+ Air confirmed; specs and price revealed

We just got a confirmation of the newest flagship phone from O+, the very first octacore smartphone from the company. Dubbed the O+ Air, the handset also boast as the thinnest octacore smartphone released in the Philippines.

At 6.8mm, the O+ Air is one of the thinnest handsets ever released in the Philippines. The unibody design is constructed using a very thin aluminum frame.

O+ Air specs:
5-inch LUMI Display @ 720×1280 pixels, 320ppi
Mediatek MT6592 1.7GHz octa-core CPU
Mali 450-MP quad-core Graphics
1GB RAM
8GB internal storage
up to 32GB via microSD card (8GB Sandisk included)
3G, Quadband GSM
Dual-SIM (regular SIM + micro-SIM slot)
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Bluetooth 4.0
FM radio tuner
GPS with aGPS support
13MP rear camera with LED flash
5MP front-facing camera
Li-Ion 2,000mAh battery
Android 4.4 Kitkat

O+ managed to get Kitkat pre-installed on the handset right out of the box. The biggest drawback when you have a handset as thin as the O+ Air is that it will be out of space for more battery.

The O+ Air is now available in O+ stores in Metro Manila, currently selling at an introductory price of Php13,995 (though they claim the SRP will be pegged at Php15,995).

    There are so many bad comment regarding this phone. But I agree with them to their reaction that this was 16k before but now its 10k reconsidering that this phone has 13mp rear and 5mp is one of the exceptional feature of this phone that can caught wide markets since we are on the era of selfie generation also it has a 1gb ram and an expandable memory card up to 32gb and! Although this phone only has 2gb of internal memory they had a package of free 8gb memory card whenever you purchase 1. Next! Beside the cam and memory this phone also goes with Android KitKat and octacore and this phone is one of the phone who has octacore buddle with KitKat. Many phone here in Philippines that comes up with Android KitKat but we can’t deny its quality unlike Oplus the quality inside out was extremely good having its aluminum back and edge it also has the link display that can’t be compare to any other phone on the same range of price because this phone gives the best lumicolor display in screen that shows the real color and beauty of its picture. That’s why it’s perfectly goes along with picture addict their and gamers because it can show your expected effects and sometimes it goes beyond the imagination. And whats i like about this phone is its thin im not uure but i think its almost 6mm that why its very light and very easy to use its so perfectly match to each others spec. So you can check its fps, benchmark and other things its available in YouTube.

    Ps. BECAUSE SOME OF YOU ALWAYS LOOK AT THE PRICE AND HIGH SPEC ALTHOUGH YOU’RE NOT SURE FOR ITS QUALITY. And Oplus can give yo u perfectly balance in its QUALITY, price and special features. So guys hoho. Don’t speak your basis is only cling on one thing because one is not enough CONSIDER EVERYTHING HAHAHA. Not just the spec but look on the design and quality too.

    Mga ul*l! O+ is not a US company. No proof about that. Rebranded phones to, they don’t even manufacture their own products as they claimed to be. Check Prestigio, Lava Iris and Xolo units that are similar to their devices. 15-16k of what? Octacore? With no LTE, 2000mah batt, 1gb ram running on a mediocre SOC? How about durability? Sobrang gaan at nipis ba? Baka made from sub standard pyesa kaya ganun. Never naging basis ang pagiging manipis at magaan ng isang phone to highly regard it as top of the line. For sure isang laglag lang na solid nyan, tilapon lahat pyesa nyan. Think again mga chong, 15-16k is not worth it for this phone.

    Everything is good except for the RAM. Dapat kahit 1.5GB man lang sana. Or 2GB nalang para cool. Tapos MediaTek pa processor. Considering the price. Advice ko sa mga bibili nito, bili nalang kayong 2ndhand branded phone. Mine, I got my Xperia Z Ultra for 10500k. Good as new pa! Pano pa specs :) At complete package. I got it abroad. Parang olx lang din sya. If you want to get one kindly text me –> 090796*****

      Lumi ba? Of what? 720p? Tipid sa batt? Siguro kung titigan mo magdamag ung screen, tipid talaga un. So what kung quad core at quad gpu? Tingin mo panalo na? Eh ung ram sir? 1gb? Haha. Nakakita ka lang ng may nakalagay na quad, pasok na kagad sau? Pambihira. No LTE? 2000mAh? Tsk… Kawawa.

    Dami niyo bad comments na try niyo na ba? Haha bili muna bago comment. Di naman lahat pare pareho ng battery consumption. Samsung nga na kataas taas ng battery may problema naman sa software. Try muna natin bago magsalita. Im getting mine tomorrow. Hahahah

    • Avatar for sirhenry sirhenry says:

      Isa ka din eh, Samsung? Software issue? Bakit sa tingin mo walang magiging software issue tong phone na to? Kung ganun bibili ako ng isang sako. Chaka bakit ako bibili ng rebranded phones kung may pera naman ako pambili ng branded na kasing presyo? Gets? US company? Bibilan pa kita ng pinakamahal na smartphone pag naituro mo sakin kung san sa US ang location ng office o HQ nila, sama mo na ung planta na kung saan sabi nila sila rin ang nagmamanufacture.

    yung mga bad comments usually hangan basa lng yan ng specs, hindi pa sila naka hands in sa device, saw the device sa mega, maganda sya, kaso out of stock sa lahat ng cp shops kanina.

    • Avatar for sirhenry sirhenry says:

      Sir, hands on hindi hands in. Chaka mas matindi ka pala. At least kami nagbabasa pa ng specs, ikaw nagandahan lang bilib ka na kagad! Bibilin mo na kagad! Fantastic!

    lahat nmn meron palagi bad comments, u cannot please everybody.. ung may pera bili, ung wala nganga..

    • Avatar for sirhenry sirhenry says:

      Sabi mo, “ung may pera bili, ung wala nganga…”. Katwiran yan ng ma taong katulad mo, walang pangarap sa buhay. Dahil ang tamang katwiran ng isang tao na nagsusumikap na maabot ang pangarap ay “ung may pera magisip kung KAILANGAN at dapat bang bumili, ung wala ay MAGSUMIKAP lalo at MAGIPON…”. SIR, HINDI NAPUPULOT ANG PERA, AT HINDI LAHAT NG BAGAY AY KAILANGAN BILIN.

    Ang dami ninyong reklamo! Ano ba talagang mobile phone ang hinahanap nyo na makuntento kayo? Mga GAGO mag VERTU Signature Touch nalang kaya kayo at baka makuntento kayo sa kulangkulang 500,000 at baka doon manahimik na kayo! Tapos doon ka na matulog, maligo, magsaing at tumae sa bagong CP nyo dahil wala kayong bahay inuna nyo CP bili. Pilipino talaga kayo!

    the battery life is incredible! i let a game sit for almost a day, then surprisingly the phone still got power!

    fyi, game is contract killer zombies

    try it urself :D

    • Avatar for sirhenry sirhenry says:

      Sir natural may power pa yan. You said you let a game sit for almost a day and still have power? Talagang may batt pa yan, why? You let it sit so I assume you opened a game and leave it running for almost a day. Definitely, Android OS will put that app on the background so no interactions from you, no consumption of other resources. Perhaps your phone went to auto lock itself after being idle for a few mins. But since its just there doing nothing for almost a day as you claimed, it will be put into cache, technically its still running but no resources are being used so talagang pag bukas mo ulet ng phone mo may power pa talaga yan!!! Android is very much different kung akala nyo eh parang Windows lang xa, iba ang resources at ram usage ng Android kumpara sa iOS at Windows mga bobo!

    1GB RAM and priced so high, battery a low one too? Pass

    • Avatar for Josh Josh says:

      Poor resolution too, at only 720×1280 pixels. The pricing of this company, O+, is delusional. Overpriced as always.
