Performance
Under the hood, the Philips W832 runs on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and is powered by a Mediatek MT6577 chipset. This is paired with a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU and a PowerVR SGX531u GPU. Such specifications were satisfactory for basic tasks like web browsing, social media, and light gaming, but it struggles with more demanding applications by today's standards. With its 4GB internal storage (only 2GB user available) and a microSDHC slot for expansion, it offered just enough room for apps and media, considering that the OS itself occupies part of the internal memory.
