Filipino mobile technology player Starmobile is giving consumers more options for affordable smartphones with fingerprint sensors as it launched the dual-SIM Android Marshmallow Starmobile UP Rave.
“The UP Rave joins the recently launched UP Sense in giving customers the peace of mind provided by fingerprint sensor-enabled smartphones,” said Michael Chen, Starmobile product development head. “While these smartphones help keep their photos, videos, emails and social media accounts extra-secure by providing access only to their owners, these also make things more convenient for them, as they can unlock access to files without having to remember passwords”.
Aside from providing security through its fingerprint sensor that can save up to five fingerprints to the device, the UP Rave also allows users up to 13.3 hours talk and 4 days standby time through its bigger 4000 mAh battery. It also has a five-inch HD screen with in-plane switching (IPS) that enables clear viewing of photos, videos, and Websites, plus 3D stereo sound. For mobile photographers, there’s the 8MP rear camera, as well as 8MP front camera with multi-shutter capability that can be activated by just smiling, flashing a “peace” sign, talking, or using the fingerprint sensor.
The Starmobile UP Rave is available in Starmobile concept stores, kiosks and authorized resellers nationwide for P4,290. Established in 2011, Starmobile is the mobile devices division of Star Telecom Alliance Resources, Inc. (STAR, Inc.).
