Smartphones have evolved as one of the most indispensable innovations of digitalization. Over the years, it has revolutionized the way people live given its evolving capabilities in enabling how people live, play and work.
However, as the demand for these gadgets continues to grow, experts say that nowadays, smartphone users consider buying devices that are long-lasting. In a
recent survey, global environmental organization,
Greenpeace Philippines, noted that nine out of 10 Filipinos believe that the durability is an important aspect they look for in smartphones. Also, 98 percent of the 1,000 respondents also consider battery life of smartphones as another important feature.
In response to this demand, Flash Philippines—one of Asia’s rising developers of lifestyle and smart devices—rolls out its flagship phone, the Flash Plus 2, with superior and highly durable built-in features valued at the lowest price of Php 6,190.
“Flash Plus 2 received positive reviews from its users as we first introduced it in the country earlier this year. This model is developed to bring out superior functions while giving a more efficient and durable smartphone unit for the users,” Sheree Gayas, Flash Philippines’ marketing manager.
Among the pioneering features of Flash Plus 2 include its sleek metal case, a fast-charging battery, fingerprint recognition, high definition phone camera, and Hi-Fi audio capacity.
These attributes allow for more durability, efficiency, and convenience.
Sleek and durable metal case
Flash Plus 2 is made more durable with its aluminum case, which is crafted employing several kinds of metal polishing processes. The case’s sides are treated with Bead Blasting textures, allowing for a stylish side view. Meanwhile, the back panel is treated with high density hairline metal drawing processes for excellent grip and added protection against scratching.
High performance and fast-charging battery
Flash Plus 2 is equipped with fast charging battery technologies—TI BQ25896 chip and 9V/1.67A battery—to achieve a mere 30-minute charging time for a 50 percent battery level. However, when fully charged, this phone guarantees a reliable capacity that lasts up to 10 hours of continuous calls.
The smartphone also highlights its Helio P10 processor, which ensures low energy consumption while providing high performance. This feature, hence, allows for maximizing entertainment needs without worrying about speedy battery drain.
Next-gen security feature
When it comes to security, Flash Plus 2 integrates a next-generation front-facing fingerprint module. This feature allows the user optimum convenience in phone unlocking because of a 3600 accuracy level that responds in half a second. It can also safeguard all the apps and private folders by assigning specific fingerprint or mark to access them.
For instance, the user can assign his thumb to open Facebook, index finger to send an e-mail, among others.
High definition phone camera
In keeping with the superior photography DNA of all Flash products, Flash Plus 2 gives better images through its built-in high definition camera with a 13-megapixel rear lens. It also adopts PDAF and contrast focusing features, which allows the user to capture fleeting moments with its 0.1 second focal alignment capability.
The camera phone also has built-in rear dual color flash lamp, RealTone, and front LED flash with Color Rendering Index that make shooting clear images even under dim light. These specs can also produce as many as 64 different lighting combinations that produce much more vivid and natural color images.
Immersive, Hi-Fi music experience
Flash Plus 2 also boasts its high-fidelity amplifying functionality. It has a quality-retaining earphone acoustics, high sound volume effects, and MIX music production essential in producing an immersive sound experience.
These are made possible through the independent AKM4375 audio decoding chip coupled with state-of-the-art IRD sound digital filter, with value-retaining signal output measuring up to high-fidelity acoustic effects. The music can also be amplified to reach 3.6 watts—eight times greater than the volume of average smartphones—using its NXP980 power amplification chip and built-in DSP algorithm.
Flash Plus 2 is now available in two color options, Luna Silver and Venus Gold, which is now available in Lazada.
