Starmobile Knight Luxe becomes official with an elegant design, a svelte form factor and legit hardware. After a series of announcement from its rivals, Starmobile finally unveiled one of its most talk-about handsets to date. Here are five things that you need to know about the device.
1. Good Hardware
The
Statrmobile Knight Luxe comes handy with 5-inch HD AMOLED display with 720 x
1280 pixels on the get-go. The panel also scales up to 267 ppi pixel density
which is basically fair enough when using the device outdoors. Under the hood,
the handset ticks with a powerful MediaTek MT6592M chipset which features an
octa-core CPU with 1.4GHz speed. Likewise, you'll also get the Mali-450 MP4 GPU
and 2GB of RAM to drive all your daily tasks without sweat.
2. Elegant Design
In
terms of design, the Starmobile Knight Luxe is one of the most stunning local
handsets to date. It comes with a thin body which only measures at 6.85
millimeters. The handset also boasts thin bezels and filleted corners which is
somewhat comparable to the Meizu m1 note. The Starmobile Knight Luxe will definitely
be an eye-catcher when you‘ll see it in the wild.
3. Great Camera
For
the mobile photographers, the Starmobile Knight Luxe is employed with a 13MP
camera with the popular ISOCELL sensor from Samsung. The sensor has a good
reputation in taking pictures, even in low light. There's also the 5MP front
camera which is up for all of your selfie shots.
4. Software and Price
The
Starmobile Knight Luxe’s main selling point aside from its design is the
octa-core CPU. And knowing that it is only priced at Php 7,690 justifies this
point. Plus, it is also powered by Android 4.4 KitKat which is a generation-old
version of Google's mobile OS.
5. Trade-offs
The
handheld also comes with a number of trade-offs. For one, there's no LTE
connectivity. Likewise, the device only packs 2050 mAh battery which is quite
small for an HD device.
