Ever heard of SunTouch? If your answer is no, that is OK, I don't know them either until I came across in one of their kiosks yesterday. They are one of the new players in the local mobile industry selling smartphone and tablets.

One of the their products that caught my attention is the Hyperium LX9, a 5.8-inch Android smartphone powered by a 1.5GHz quad-core MediaTek MT6589 processor. The screen has 720p resolution and is protected by a Corning Gorilla Glass 2.

The internal storage is 8GB with the option to expand it up to 64GB via the micro SD slot. There is also a 2GB of RAM, which ensures multitasking at blazing speed.

The specs are impressive, so is the battery capacity of 3,300mAh which is quite rare even for global branded phablets. Almost forgot, you also get another spare battery of the same capacity in the retail package.

The front of the device is similar to Samsung design, there is a physical home button below the screen. Above the display you will find the 5MP secondary camera, earpiece grill, light and proximity sensors.

  7. This phone is comparable to Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 at a lower price. I believe external memory is expandable up to 64GB. The screen is huge but can still be considered as a normal phone. The stylus is somewhat useless because the screen is very sensitive that it reacts to the slightest touch of a finger. Just a bit of a disadvantage is that you'll find it difficult to navigate using one hand. This is an excellent phone for people who are looking for reliable phone at a lower price.

  14. Tsaka rooted na rin 'tong phone na 'to gaya nung sabi sa previous reviews. Yung nga lang talaga, para sa mga mahilig mag-selfie, sobrang nakaka-disappoint yung front cam. Masyading malabo, parang QVGA nga ang quality kaya di mo rin masabi na megapixel yung quality ng pictures.
