SKK Mobile Platinum

I went to 168 Mall earlier today to buy some house stuffs and unexpectedly I found an SKK Mobile Kiosk with a lot of people buzzing around. Out of curiosity I checked the store and found out that the long awaited SKK Mobile Platinum is already available for Php9,999.

The Platinum really looks stunning and I can't help myself to get one. The phone has a solid build quality, the 5-inch HD screen is sharp and vibrant.

The new SKK phablet is powered by MediaTek MT6589 chipset with four cores clocked at 1.2GHz, PowerVR SGX544MP coupled with 1GB of RAM. The internal storage has been upgraded from 8GB (when it was announced) to 16GB which is further expandable via microSD up to 32GB.

Key Specs:

• Dual SIM , Dual Standby
• 5" capacitive IPS High Definition LCD (1280 x 720)

The phone physical appearance resembles a lot of HTC's design but when you turn on the device, the icons and widgets are similar to that of Samsung's touch wiz UI. One trick added to its software is the Air Slide, wherein you can wave your hand in front of the unit to navigate to gallery, homescreen etc.

As usual, we will do a full review in the upcoming days. So head on comments section below if you want something to be included.
