Eight powerful cores, Full High Definition display, and an economical yet amazingly solid build.\u00a0 Cherry Mobile joins the octa-core revolution with its latest flagship device, the newest and most powerful Cherry Mobile smartphone yet, the Cosmos Z2.<\/p>\n

Following its predecessor, the Cosmos Z, the Z2 is part of the Cosmos series launched last July 2013. However, what makes it different from the rest of the Cosmos series, and the rest of Cherry Mobile\u2019s smartphones for that matter, it it\u2019s octa-core processor\u2013 eight cores ready to work simultaneously for running graphics or performance demanding games or multitasking in applications. \u201cFor the Cosmos Z2, we wanted to exceed all our competitive smartphones in the market. The Cosmos series is one of our most promising lines yet \u2013 looking back, we became the first and we remain to be the only local brand with phones with Super AMOLED Technology. And being our first octa-core smartphone, the Cosmos Z2 deserves to lead this line of products,\u201d said Cherry Mobile\u2019s Marketing Head, Poch Zenarosa at the Cosmos Z2 product launch last February 4.<\/p>\n

\nThese eight cores guarantee ultra-fast performance that does not compromise the device\u2019s display – Full High Definition runs perfectly with the Cosmos Z2\u2019s 1.7 GHz MediaTek 6592 octa-core processor.<\/p>\n

With an outstanding 16.7 million colors Full High Definition screen, this smartphone is a seamless experience of both an aggressive processor and a brilliant display. Watching movies, playing HD games, and just plainly looking at it will certainly be a delight.<\/p>\n

Smartphones with Powerbank Function and a G-Pen<\/strong>
\nCherry Mobile also announced that the G-Pen (Gesture Pen) is an accompaniment to the newest addition to its Titan series, the Titan Pro. Aptly named, the Titan Pro provides professional function not just for the business-minded but also for the artistic.<\/p>\n

With a 5-inch HD-OGS Screen and the G-Pen, the Titan Pro is Cherry Mobile\u2019s smartphone to mix the needs of both the multi-tasker and the creative.<\/p>\n

To fully utilize the convenience of having the G-Pen, Assistive Touch has been added as an additional feature \u2013 this eliminates the need to press physical buttons while doing tasks on-screen. Assistive Touch enables the user to access the \u201cback,\u201d \u201chome,\u201d and \u201coptions\u201d buttons through the screen itself. In addition, the Titan Pro has an Alarm Function for the G-Pen, detecting if the G-Pen has not been put back after use. This prevents misplacement and loss.<\/p>\n

Dual Wi-Fi Frequency \u201cMiracast + web surfing\u201d<\/strong>
\nMiracast is a sought after feature that enables the user to view the smartphone\u2019s screen on a Smart TV, however, this takes up the smartphone\u2019s Wi-Fi connectivity, restricting the user from browsing the Internet while on Miracast. For the Titan Pro, Cherry Mobile added the dual Wi-Fi frequency feature wherein the user can connect to another Wi-Fi network for internet, enabling him to browse and view his activity while connected to a Smart TV.<\/p>\n

Creative freedom with the G-Pen<\/strong>
\nThe Titan Pro also features a freehand drawing application wherein users are able to do free hand sketches with customizable brushes, colors, etc. These sketches can also be exported to high resolution jpegs.<\/p>\n

Cherry Mobile has been keen on expanding the Titan series \u2013 in addition to the Titan Pro, the company also released the Titan 2.0, the successor of the Cherry Mobile Titan (the company\u2019s first phablet released last 2012). The Titan 2.0 adapts a more modern and slimmer build, with a better processor, better display, and additional special functions.<\/p>\n

Power-packed<\/strong>
\nThe Titan 2.0 has a 3000 mAh battery capacity, more than enough juice to power up this quad-core device and run heavy applications without draining too quickly. Soon, Cherry Mobile will also offer a 6000 mAh battery pack for the Titan 2.0, for those seeking even more battery power.<\/p>\n

Powerbank function \u2013 a lifesaver<\/strong>
\nNot only is the Titan 2.0 a promising smartphone, it\u2019s also a life saver for your other gadgets. Battery power can be shared to other devices through its power bank function, a feature that allows the user to utilize the Titan 2.0 as a powerbank for other devices through USB-OTG cable.<\/p>\n

The display has also made a remarkable leap from its predecessor, the Titan 2.0 sports a 5\u201d HD IPS OGS screen, high definition display at better viewing angles. Its 1.2 GHz Quad-Core processor also ensures fast and efficient multi-tasking for both light and heavy applications.<\/p>\n

The Titan Pro and the Titan 2.0 are now available in the market, retailing at P10,999 and P8,999 respectively.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
