Cherry Mobile’s Android phone line-up just keeps on piling up. We have seen so many new Android handsets from Cherry Mobile in the past few months it’s quite hard to keep up. Cherry Mobile previously released the Blaze, Titan, Omega, Cruize, Flare, Flame and Rave. Just recently, we learned about the Thunder which, we were told, is a Lazada exclusive. The newest member of the Cherry Mobile Android family is the Titan TV. The Cherry Mobile Titan TV deserves the “Titan” name since it has the biggest screen among Cherry Mobile Android phones.
The original Titan phone had a 5-inch display but the Titan TV is even bigger and in terms of specs, it’s also badder. The Titan TV sports a huge 6-inch display it’s even bigger than the 5.5-inch Galaxy Note II from Samsung, the company which started the “phablet” craze. At 6-inches, you’ll have all the screen real estate that you want in a smartphone. Imagine how good it will be to play games and watch videos on the Titan TV’s display. Its display is in fact close the 7-inch size of small Android tablets. Cherry Mobile’s flyers do not say what the display resolution is so it’s too early to say if the Titan TV’s display will be good enough. For the retail price of P6,999, it’s almost certain that the display will not be as good as we wish it to be but I would be glad to be proven wrong. I shall do a little digging so I can find out the actual resolution.
The Titan TV, as the name implies, has a TV functionality. That’s definitely a nice touch considering that the phone’s screen is huge. With this phone, you can certainly keep up with your favorite lunch show or telenovela. I can see people buying the Cherry Mobile Titan TV for its TV functionality more than any other feature.
The Titan TV is a beast of a phone in terms of computing power. I say this in light of the fact that it is priced at only P6,999. For this amount, you wouldn’t even expect a decent set of specs, let alone a 6-inch display. Cherry Mobile has surprised us again since the Titan TV has a 1GHz dual-core CPU and 1GB of RAM. Most of the offerings from Cherry Mobile had 512MB of RAM so this is quite a surprise. A nice surprise if I may say. There’s also an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 2-megapixel front camera. So far, so good. The compromise comes in the internal storage which is a measly 4GB for this phone. However, there’s a microSD slot so this should not be a major issue if you want more than 4GB. As to battery, the Cherry Mobile Titan TV has a decent 2500mAh battery. That is usually enough for a smartphone but the 6-inch screen will definitely use up too much power. Expect the battery life is probably anywhere from poor to decent. It’s also worth mentioning that the Cherry Mobile Titan TV is a dual-SIM phone so that should cover two of your most favorite networks.
Here’s a list of the main specs of the Cherry Mobile Titan TV.
Cherry Mobile Titan TV Specs and Price
- 6-inch WVGA display
- 1GHz dual-core chip
- 1GB RAM
- 4GB internal storage
- microSD card slot up to 32GB
- WiFi connectivity
- 8-megapixel rear camera with flash
- 2-megapixel front camera
- 2500mAh battery
- Android Ice Cream Sandwich
- TV Tuner
- Dual-SIM
- Free flip cover and stylus
- Price: P6,999
This set of specs is quite compelling. If the screen resolution turns out to be decent, the Cherry Mobile Titan TV could easily become the newest hit from Cherry Mobile since the Flare. I’d love to do a review of this phone but that remains to be seen.
The question now is, is the Titan TV the “phablet” you’ve been waiting for? Are you getting one or are going to wait for the next one?

can i record the live tv broadcast?
@gaia ask ko lang po. can i record the live tv broadcast ?
@evelyn fernandezjust use DU battery saver… it worked well for me :))
I’m gonna have to ask the same question by user name “ehem” below.
How good is this phone when it comes to drawing? Does it come with a stylus?
I really want a phone that doubles as a portable sketch pad for me. As you know, real sketch pads are a hassle to carry around and it has a lot of limitations.
Drawing using a phone app seems like an exciting thing. I’ve seen some creating wonderful drawings using their phones… I know the Galaxy Samsung phones may be better with this, but they’re just too pricey for me.
I have just bought me a titan tv one thing i noticed is the battery that is easily drain out. is there another remedy for this aside buying another extra battery?
okay naman ang titan tv, merong tv and fm recording, maganda yong resolution, smooth naman maglaro ng candy crush, fruit ninja at subway surfer, maganda rin magbrowse sa fb at twitter, depende yan sa gusto niyo sa isang phone. so far i’m satisfied with the specs. ang habol ko kasi dito is yong tv at fm recording at malaking screen for games.
To titan tv users, ask q lang po qng hindi ba to masyadong umiinit sa game !? ung thunder q kase umiinit malapit sa my part ng camera! Pati ulo q umiinit narin! Jeje
Reply kayo hah base from your experience ! Thannnnkksssss a lot!
Pwedeng pwede!!!

Pagiipunan ko yan,,,wink!
ako rin *wink*
The problem with this unit:
They have technicians who do not clearly understand how android works.
The box indicates that it has 4 gb rom.
The technician will tell you that 2 gb has been used for system apps and 2 gb will be user available.
But the real test to check on the ROM is you go to Settings – > Apps. At the bottom of the screen you will see the Amount of MB used and Amount of MB free. It will show you a total of 500mb. That’s the real ROM of Titan TV.
The technician will ask you to go to Settings -> Storage. There you will see Internal Storage which is at 500mb total only, the other is PHONE STORAGE AT 2gb. The people from Cherry Mobile will convince you that the PHONE STORAGE is what’s remaining from the 4gb ROM. Apparently it’s not. My experiences in hacking and unlocking android phones will not make me believe with what they have said. The PHONE STORAGE is actually a built in SD card. So it means, the phone allows you to have another SD card.
It is not a ROM. Most apps need to be in phone storage to function properly. Even you have Rooted your phone, transferring an app 2 sd card does not really transfer the entire app to the SD card.
The only way to improve the ROM is to Root and create partition of that PHONE STORAGE. It will make that partition as if a part of the ROM.
My CM Titan TV now has a 1.5GB ROM instead of the 500mb.
Nice one bro tama ka marami kasing TANGA AT NAGMAMAGALING JAN FAKE AD YANG 4g rom na sinasabi nila
bro, tutorial naman how to change the partitions :-)
Pano ba mag root and create ng partition
a special greetings to you sir..i only have 1 question in your comment, can you pls help me to understand well how to root and create partition of that PHONE STORAGE? bec i am interested n 2 ur suggestion it may help a lot to me bec i am going to buy 1..your quick reply is so much appreciated sir..thank you :)
Paturo naman po ng tutorial please!
Mas ok pa rin yun unang TITAN. Dahil yun ang meron ako wahaha :)
Pero ok na rin ito para sa presyo nya…
One thing i dont really like from this model.. the camera is really really bad.. 8 megapixel? is that real? no its like 2.. tried to take a picture of a text and tried to zoom it. really frustrated.. im not really sure if its because of the big screen.. i compared it to my friends Flare model and the difference is very noticeable.. i was really frustrated with the camera…..
An acquaintance brought one during the Pyromusical Competition at MOA.
There is no problem taking still pictures.
But during the video recording of the fireworks, we noticed that it is ok only during the first 2 to 3 minutes, after that video recording becomes blurry. Luckily I bought my good old Nokia N8.
What you pay is what you get.
you have to manually focus it.. click on HD then tap on the area u want to focus… so it will be clear. Or. install a app that improves camera.. it’s 8megapixels if you check the properties of the photo in a computer..
my gf has no problem taking pictures of texts using her CM titan(not TV) . . and it only has a 5 MP camera . . . . baka po hindi nyu na-e-manual focus? click nyu po yung screen ng gusto nyong e-focus tapos mag-ce-clear na po sya . .
saka po na-mislead na ang mga consumers dahil sa megapixel race ng mga camera makers . . 8 megapixel is not the “quality” of a camera . . it’s the maximum size of the picture the camera can take . . pero di ibig sabihing ultra clear na po to . . sa lens pa rin po yun ng camera . .. yung 3 megapixel camera ng samsung d900 ko(2007 pa yun) mas clear kesa sa mga bagong 5 o 8 megapixel camera ngayon . . . kaya talagang ini-emphasize ng Nokia sa kanilang camera na Carl Zeiss yung gamit nilang lens kasi ang linaw2x at napaka-sharp ng image
maganda tong phone na to kakabili ko lng last january.. ok naman sya
naka bili na ako last feb 15, so far very satistified ako sa phone =D
How about yung memory capacity niya for applications? Help please. Importante din kasi yun.
memorsy expandale up to 32
okay to 6 inches!! kasinglaki ng ano ko
kamusta ung screen resolution? ok lang ba? hindi ba pixelated? kasi its 800×480 on a 6 incher screen
The unit has one big flaw, kaya pala tahimik ang launch nila nito. The user-available memory is only 75MB, unbelievably low. So kapag nag download ka ng apps, malamang pa isa-isa lang, LOL.
what do you mean sir? kahit mag lagay ako ng 32gb useless din ba? di ba to nakakapag move ng apps sa sd card?
So hindi totoo yung 4GB of internal storage na nakasulat sa likod ng box?
PPI is a bit overrated. The iPad 2 only has a PPI of 132, while the iPad Mini only has a PPI of 163, and yet the screen still looks nice.
Aside from the PPI, you also have to consider the screen display technology as well …
Panalo ang CM sila nauna 1GB RAM! Bibili ako nito pero hindi dahil sa TV ha. Pang gaming ko to…hehehe…Thanks Babs!
Ok sana kaso di ba baduy pag nanood ng tv sa cp? Awkward tingnan parang yung mga chinaphones 4 years ago haha!
edi wag ka po manood ng tv. :) additional function lng nmn un tv e. :P
may point ka :)
Ang laki ng problema mo boss. Hehehe…
Goodluck with the DPI.
I mean ppi lol.
mabilis ba mag browse gamit ito? nka plan kasi ako sa globe
ilang ppi to? at upgradeable ba to sa 4.1 or something?
480 x 800 screen resolution…….
ayus tv na rin
laki naman nito 6 inches. di na ata kasya sa bulsa yan
depende lang sa gusto mo yan. okay ang malaki sa ibang tao
mura naman nito. maganda kaya screen?
