Cherry Mobile surprised the local tech industry with the first ever locally-branded Windows-powered mobile devices in the Philippines, known as the Cherry Mobile Alpha series. Its smartphones has set the standard for other local mobile phone brands to unveil their own Windows Phone. Now I will tell you my first impressions on what is considered to be my favorite among the two Windows-powered smartphones released by the "Future of Mobile". And that would be the Cherry Mobile Alpha Luxe.


The Cherry Mobile Alpha Luxe may be a premium smartphone powered by Windows Phone OS, but it is considered as the most affordable premium phone in the country today regardless of its specifications and features. And speaking of that matter, here are the specs of the Alpha Luxe so you can see what you are looking at.

As you can see in these specs, they are just as typical as an Android smartphone but better.

You can have the Alpha Luxe for a very affordable price of P4,999.00 once it is available in the local markets. However, I have already seen it available in a few stores, and more will have them.
