After their success in Europe and America, Polaroid now has its eyes set on our country and, together with RedDot Philippines, have unveiled a slew of competitively-priced Android-powered devices aimed at budget-conscious consumers.
Tablets and smartphones aren’t exactly the first products that will come into mind when you see or hear of Polaroid. Heck, you might not even know that they actually manufacture anything other than cameras and photography-related products until only recently when we previewed their latest offering that was displayed in this year’s CES. But times have changed since Polaroid’s hey-day in the camera scene, and they, like other companies, have realized the market potential of mobile computing devices such as smartphones and tablets.
Polaroid’s initial lineup consists of entry-level to mid-tier smart phone and tablets and a few feature phones. Here’s a look at their offerings which includes an overview of the devices’ specs and local price.
The Polaroid devices mentioned above will be available in the next coming weeks and can be purchased through leading mobile stores, kiosks and dealers nationwide.

Too late, Polaroid…
Goodluck!
abuzalzal says:
LOL parang COBY lang
Underspec’d, Overpriced
Pipo and Cube are the BEST bang for buck tablets out there bar none
Sa smartphone naman siyempre STARMOBILE….nyahahahahahahaha I kid I kid
abuzalzal says:
Mga hijo at hija
kung bibili kayo ng CHINA tablet siguraduhin niyong ROCKCHIP SoC’s mga pinipili ninyo
anything less than a ROCKCHIP is weak
adgjmptw says:
Really? Anything less than a rockchip is weak? Haven’t you heard of Exynos 4? Some Chinese brand tablets are actually using Samsung’s chipset, and they fare better than Rockchip’s in actual usage. And how much is Starmobile paying you? CM and MyPhone are still better overall against SM. CM’s customer service is not the same all over the country; some may be bad, but in other places it is actually good. Their prices are definitely dealbreakers among local brands. MP’s customer service could be the best among local brands with their tie-up with Sony. They also don’t overprice that much. SM? Shorter lines in customer service? ‘Coz there are less people buying their gadgets. Most of their phones/tablets are way behind against SM and MP (except for the new ones, obviously). They are, what you say, “under-speced and overpriced.”
IGNORAMUS says:
^^^^
Duh syempre yung Exynos 4 mas powerful sa Rockchip. Tama padin yung statement ni abu “Anything less than a Rockchip” (Exynos > Rockchip > Others) Magaangas ka na nga lang, paanga anga pa.
abuzalzal says:
@adgjmptw
WOW…kulang na lang sabihin mo SNAPDRAGON 800 at TEGRA 4 ah lmao
magbasa mabuti : CHINA tablet
CHINA ba yung Samsung na sinasabi mo? Ililibre kita ng Andoks kung makakapagsabi ka ng SoC na mas powerful sa Rockchip
mang kan0r says:
@adgjmptw ikwento mo sa pagong
adgjmptw says:
@abuzalzal
Oi kita ko mga comments mo dito sa site puro ka troll. And please read again what I said: CHINESE-BRAND TABLETS. Like the Ramos W42, which uses the Exynos 4412. I didn’t mention Tegra because even the dual-core Rockchip can easily outpace Tegra 3.
abuzalzal says:
Aba aba aba..pinagpipilitan pa
The Quad Rockchip RK3188 EASILY bests the Exynos 4412 in most testings….
Hijo, Kung sinabi kong Rockchip ang da best yun na yun lol
BASA : http://www.cnx-software.com/2013/04/04/quad-cores-soc-comparison-rockchip-rk3188-vs-exynos-4412-vs-tegra-3/
abuzalzal says:
Ayy, mali…ni hindi man lang nanalo ang Exynos 4412 against sa Rockchip…at mas efficient pa sa power consumption
that’s waht I call PWNAGE to the maxx
ano say mo hijo?
passingby says:
way to go @abuzalzal guy \m/
abuzalzal says:
Antutu : Rkchp beats Exynos (16,755 vs 14,756)
NBench : Rkchp beats Exynos (10,641 vs 9,182)
GlBenchmark : Rkchp beats Exynos in ALL testings
Power consumption : Rkchp beats Exynos 44 % vs 75%
adgjmptw says:
Sige pagpilitan mo din yan. Pakibasa ulit ng sinabi ko; “ACTUAL USAGE”. Are benchmarks basis for comparison? Yes definitely. Pero basahin mo yung ibang forums comparing both processors, and obviously they will say that the Rockchip will beat the Exynos in benchmarks BUT the Exynos produces better quality in ACTUAL USAGE. Analyze din konti hijo. Benchmarks are mere representations of the hardware, and should not ONLY be the basis for comparison between hardwares. Sige try mo i-explain yang benchmarks mo sa mga casual users kung maiiintindihan ba nila yan.
abuzalzal says:
Benchmarks ACTUALLY give you the idea on how a chip would perform on real world use…that being said, Differences vary…from noticeable to negligible
NGAYON, ignoramus ka na talaga kung ipagpilitan mong mas superior ang Exynos 4412 sa Rockchip which isn’t the case based from those benchmarks
adgjmptw says:
Slow ka ba? O sadyang slow ka lang talaga? I said ACTUAL USAGE. Pinagpipilitan mo ng pa-ulit2 ang benchmarks, di ko naman kinokontra yan. That is already proven. What I meant is comparing them on ACTUAL USAGE or AKTWAL NA PAGGAMIT kung di mo naiintindihan ang ibig sabihin nun. ACTUAL PERFORMANCE of an Exynos-powered tablet is still BETTER SLIGHTLY than a Rockchip-powered tablet, owing to the fact na bago pa lang yang quadcore na Rockchip na SoC. Ikaw yata ang ignoramus e. And also, the benchmark difference between the two is EXPECTED, due to the fact na ang Exynos 4412 was released April 2012 pa while ang Rockchip RK3188 was just released last January 2013. Obviously, mas updated, e d syempre it will turn out better on tests.
abuzalzal says:
haha wala PAHIYA ka lang sari-sari na palusot ginagawa mo…mag muni-muni ka nga at tingnan mo yung una mong post…then reflect
LMAO
Exynos? talaga? never heard of it lol
IGNORAMUS says:
adgjmptw got PWNED into nothingness! Lulusot ka pa eh! Kainin mo yang Exynos mo! LOL

TMC says:
Polaroid (haha, the last four letters gets a piece of the Android name), they better stick to cameras. Why join the fray and scare away consumers with high-price + low-specs.
ChrisP says:
Dapat pinaka selling point ng mga products nila eh yung camera sana. :D
