The SuperD D1 in gold.
MyPhone brings a Chinese brand’s first smartphone here in the Philippines – the SuperD D1. Its main features include a 3D display, virtual reality and eye motion tracking.
Before we proceed, let’s first acknowledge that this product has nothing to do with the TV show of the same name.
So, the SuperD D1 will be sold in the Philippines by MyPhone both online and in the company’s physical stores but without a re-branding. It’s like what SKK Mobile did with DingDing.
Let’s start with the screen – a 5.5-inch full HD IPS panel that can show 3D content such as videos without 3D glasses. Next is its virtual reality capability that can be experienced using a free VR headset that MyPhone is giving away for free for every purchase up to the first 1000 customers.
The VR experience is then enhanced by the phone’s eye motion tracking technology. It employs a secondary front camera that tracks where the user is looking. Hence, it adjust the perspective of the virtual reality scene to better simulate reality.
Silver variant of the SuperD D1.
The SuperD D1 runs on an octa core processor from MediaTek (MT6750T) with 3GB of RAM and Android 6.0 Marshmallow as the operating system. It comes with 32GB of built-in storage with a microSD card slot.
At the back, there’s a 13 Megapixel camera with a LED flash. Meanwhile, an 8 Megapixel selfie shooter resides on the front. There’s also a fingerprint sensor below the rear camera.
It has 4G LTE connectivity, a 3000mAh battery and a metal frame. It’s available in two color options – gold and silver.
MyPhone is selling the SuperD D1 for an official price of ₱11,999.00. It will be available through the company’s online shop and on Lazada Philippines by the end of January 2016.
For the 3D and VR content, a SuperD VR Store is also available.
