MyPhone my28s vs m28 Smart Prepaid Bundle : How Exactly Are They Different?

As many of you already know, all of the 300,000 MyPhone my28 Smart Prepaid Bundles that the MVP-company prepared for Pinoy consumers across the country have already been sold out. That's great news. But the thing is, demand of the handset remains high.

To address that, Smart Prepaid will be offering a new but similarly priced bundle featuring MyPhone my28s in lieu of my28, which is no longer available.

To quote Smart Communications, "Due to the overwhelming response, the Smart MyPhone my28 is sold out. But don't worry, the Smart myPhone my28S is coming very soon. The my28S boasts of the same quad-core engine, and the same 100 MB FREE data allocation as the original offer. This new model will be available exclusively at Smart and will be priced at Php 888."

For those who are asking, MyPhone my28s looks exactly the same or identical to my28. Looks-wise and in terms of construction, they are 100% the same.

In fact, there's not a single design accent or port-location-change differentiating my28s from my28.

The same thing can be said about their key technical specifications -- except for one feature. Both MyPhone my28s and my28 are equipped with a 4-inch WVGA display, 5 MegaPixel main camera, 2 MP front cam, Dual SIM Dual Standby capability, and 3G HSPA+ support. Under the hood, the two run near-vanilla Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system 1.2 GHz Quad Core ARM Cortex A7 and Mali 400 based Spreadtrum SC7731 chipset, have 512 MB of RAM for multitasking, and are powered by a removable 1,450 mAh Li-Ion battery pack.

So what exactly makes my28s different from my28? Well, the newer release has smaller internal storage at just 4GB versus 8GB on the model that has just been sold out. I know. Personally, I'm just think of my28's extra 4GB of space as a treat for the vigilant ones who did their best to get their unit ahead of others. Nonetheless, one of our friends from MyPhone told me that my28s is more optimized for Smart usage as it comes with a pre-installed Smart store app.

Priced at only Php 888, Smart MyPhone my28s will be available at select Smart Business Centers, MyPhone Concept Stores, and authorized retail outlets across the country within the next few days. This model will also up for purchase via Smart Online Store and will be out in two colors: Black and White.
