Earlier today, while I was strolling around the Cyberzone of SM North, I've had a brief moment with the CloudFone Excite 501o. For those who missed it, CloudFone Excite 501o is the very first local branded octa core powered smartphone to enter the under PHP 5K range.

The phone is not too thick nor too thin, it just have that average thickness |
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to benchmark it (I was not allowed by the sales person), but according to most reports this can reach more than 30K on Antutu benchmark that probably makes it one of the most powerful octa core phone under PHP 5K.
As of the moment...
This CloudFone is an impressive octa core phone under 5K! Both the front and rear camera quality is respectable, the red back design looks iron man inspired and its light which feels really good to hold. Then even if most of its aesthetics is made out of plastic this phone should durable enough to take on the daily challenge of life with proper care and use. From my quick assessment this phone currently has the best value among all CloudFone devices that anybody should consider.
Hopefully we'll be able to do a full review of the units soon.
