Good price for what they’re asking
Here’s an octa-core smartphone released by a company that’s not Starmobile, Cherry Mobile or MyPhone. The Colonia is being offered by Qube, a company that does business here in the PH which sells all sorts of gadgets and consumer electronics.

The specs are quite good, with the Colonia sporting a 5.5-inch HD IPS display, 1.7GHz octa-core processor and 2GB of RAM. Right now it’s priced at Php 8,990, but this is merely the introductory price, with the full price of the Colonia being around 1K more, at Php 9,990. It also comes with Android 4.4 KitKat out of the box, so you won’t have to wait for an OTA update. Externally the device isn’t a bad looking phone, though we haven’t had personal experience with Qube before. If you’ve bought from them before, please share your experience below so prospective buyers of the Colonia know what to expect.
