Happy New Year, kiddos!

And what better way to welcome a brand new year than with a brand new smartphone for Pinoy Android fanboys out there. Boys and girls, meet the Cherry Mobile Rave.

This here’s a dual SIM Android 2.3 Gingerbread 3.5-incher powered by a 1Ghz Snapdragon with a 2-megapixel cam, GPS, WiFi and 3G/HSDPA connectivity. So yeah, as far as specs go, it’s really nothing outstanding to get excited about.

It’s price, however, is a totally different story. SRP of this new Cherry Mobile Andoroid is – get this – just Php3,299, making this one of the most affordable Snapdragon-powered ‘droids around.

But if you’re a TV junkie too, then the Cherry Mobile Candy TV is what we’d recommend for you. This too is retailing at the same price, also runs on Android and a 1GHz processor, sports a front-facing cam, but doesn’t come with 3G connectivity.
