All sporting the latest Android Go version

After having a direct confirmation that Cherry Mobile will be releasing Android Go phones, the Filipino brand teased its upcoming Android Go phones, all under the Flare P3 family. All three phones sport a quad-core processor, 1GB RAM, 8GB internal storage, a fingerprint scanner, an 18:9 display, and a Go version of Android Oreo 8.1.

While sporting the final build, which consists of a removable back cover dressed in navy blue, all three phones were equipped with a pre-production version of Android Oreo Go edition. While the software is not yet final, it is smoother compared to the Android Go phones we saw at MWC 2018. 

Even with its entry-level specs, browsing through this version of Android Go is fluid, and there are little to no lags as we browsed through the different Android Go apps. With the short time we had with the three phones, Android Go seems to be a promising offering from Google for the below Php 5,000 price bracket.

The Flare P3 series will become officially available by the early June this year.
