Kata is a brand that’s based in Hong Kong and the Philippines, is relatively new in the local scene. Kata products are geared toward the budget-conscious crowd but the company is able to strike a good balance between low price and good quality. I have tried Kata phones and tablets before and I was quite impressed with how good they are for the price they are being offered.
The new budget Android handset from Kaya is the Venus 3, a follow-up to the Venus S. The Kata Venus 3 features a 4-inch LCD display and packs a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, a 5MP rear camera, and a 1.2MP front-facing camera. The rest of the main specs include 512MB of RAM, 4GB of internal storage (expandable), dual-SIM functionality and 1,600mAh battery.
Here are the full specs of the Kata Venus 3.

What’s good about the Venus 3 is the price. If you get it now, you can purchase one for only Php3,999. This is an introductory price as the actual price of the Venus 3 is Php4,999. Of course there are also other options in the market as the budget-phone market has several players like Cherry Mobile and MyPhone but it wouldn’t hurt if you check other brands out.

I have a kata fishtab3, as they claimed, that the memory is expandable but i can only install up to 5bg of apps and games and i cannot install them to my inserted microSD. it’s the same with their other tablets.. probably the same with their phones.. the after sales support is VERY poor… better to stay away from Kata products…
where we can buy this phone?
