Verdict: Tough exterior but falls short with its internals
While we have to give the UP Xtreme points for effort for putting a tough-as-nails front glass, things get underwhelming when it comes to its internals. It is disappointing for Starmobile to settle an aging, non-LTE enabled quad-core processor where they could have easily used a newer, LTE-enabled processor.
Granted that it comes with entry-level specs given its budget price, one of the best remedies Starmobile could do with the UP Xtreme is to use Android Go instead of the usual Android software for better optimization. In addition, thermal management issues are a concern for the UP Xtreme, as the phone tends to heat up easily with some tasks.
That being said, there are many things to be improved upon with the UP Xtreme, and we hope Starmobile implements them in their future phone releases.
