Philips W3500 Full Review: Processing Power

The new Philips W3500 offers a decent and workable processor inside. It offers a 1.3GHz quad core processor so that it doesn't have much issues while running apps and games. Quad core processors are usually good, and the Philips handset isn't really much different.

The W3500, we just have to say, has been fitted with workable hardware components. And this includes a quad core processor that's clocked at 1.3GHz. Users will also 1GB of RAM for applications, with added internal storage inside.

But this hardly means that you will abuse the built in RAM and storage to the point that it starts hanging every once in a while, for which you later complain. As long as you don't abuse the system with too many apps in the background, you should have any real issues.

However, going by what we saw from the handset, it still is a favorable device to load apps and run them successfully as well. Gaming on the handset may not be its biggest forte, but again, there shouldn't be much complaints about that as well.

The handset also offers the option to further increase the memory of the smartphone via the support for a microSD card. It is indeed expandable up to another 32GB if you are running out of space in your handset, internally.
