Hardware Check

Very slim and easy-to-handle 4.5-inch offering from Cloudfone

The Cloudfone Thrill 450Q is a welcome break from all the 5-inch smartphones from local brands that we’ve been seeing popping out left and right. Instead of the 5-inch form factor, Cloudfone went back to the 4.5-inch display which is so much more easier to handle while on the go. The phone fits perfectly in your hand and the curved smooth back feels very natural to your palm.

The quad-core processor combined with the 1GB RAM and Android Jelly Bean’s Project Butter deliver a near lag-free experience. Transitions and animations were smooth and fluid. Images and text looked crisp and detail thats to the qHD resolution as well.

The one thing that got us really worried though was the battery life. 1800mAh just won’t cut it especially if you heavily use your smartphone. Cloudfone probably saw this coming so they actually bundled a “free” 4,400mAH powerbank. Awesome right? Hehe.

By the way, can we just say that this is one of the coolest looking Powerbanks ever? Hehe.
