O+ USA just revealed three new Android phones on their Facebook page earlier today in the form of the O+ 8.31z, O+ 8.36z and O+ 8.37. Confusing naming scheme aside, the three phones are all aimed toward the budget segment considering the specs are the typical entry level dual core affair. However, I find their pricing to be a bit puzzling. Take a look at the official press image below.
One might argue that these phones aren’t actually going for Php8,888 and that the price indicated on the official press image is actually a teaser, with the price to be revealed later. I would be inclined to agree, however O+ themselves confirmed the pricing on these three phones on their Facebook page.
Until further notice, we’re going to have to assume that the O+ 8.31z, O+ 8.36z and O+ 8.37 are indeed priced at Php8,888. Anyway, let’s take a look at the specs to see if they’re worth it.
The O+ 8.31z is an entry-level 3.5 incher with a 1GHz dual core processor and Android 4.2 Jelly Bean out of the box. There’s no indication as to how much RAM and internal storage the 8.31z will come with, but at least it’s expandable up to 32GB via micro SD and even comes with a free 4GB card from SanDisk.
The O+ 8.36z is another 3.5 incher and is practically the same phone as the O+ 3.31z. There is nothing in the specs to indicate that they are two different phones save for their respective names. Likewise, it comes with a free 4GB card as well.
Finally, the O+ 8.37 is a proper 4 incher and comes with a 1.2GHz dual core processor. It comes with an 8GB card from SanDisk, rather than the 4GB card that comes with the O+ 8.31z and O+ 8.36z. Of the three, this one looks like the best value, although at Php8,888, it’s kind of hard to see the value.
I still have my doubts that these are indeed priced at Php8,888, but seeing as O+ continues to promote this new batch of phones at that price on their Facebook page, we’ll have to assume that there’s been no mistake in the pricing.
