Aside from these three main mobile marvels, Cherry Mobile has silently
announced other Flare S7 smartphones that are designed and catered for the budget-conscious.
Some of them run on Android Oreo Go which is the lite edition of version 8.1
that is tailor-made for entry-level mobile devices while one among them is
already my personal favorite because of its long battery. I'll let the picture
above speak more about these marvels than just words. Anyway, ask anyone in a
Cherry Mobile store in your area if any of the Flare S7 smartphones is
available.
