Philips W8510 Performance and Software

Performance and Software

The phone runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, supported by a Mediatek MT6589 chipset. Under the hood, it has a quad-core Cortex-A7 processor clocked at 1.2 GHz and a PowerVR SGX544 GPU. While these specifications were adequate for handling basic applications and multitasking in 2013, they are significantly underpowered by today’s standards. The device comes with 4GB of internal storage, which is rather limiting, but it does offer a dedicated microSDHC slot for expandable storage, mitigating the constraint to some extent.
