Here’s another phablet treat from Star. Once again they bring us their latest MT6577 tabphone. Now, its a 5.2-inch dual-core Android ICS with a very slim and sexy body built. With this entry, it seems it makes a tad bit hard to select which 5.x smartphones to choose if that is your preference size for a phone.

Star S5 MT6577

Nothing much is obviously new and interesting here about this 5.2-inch Star phone, yet it is still a decent choice for a 5.x-inch Android smartphone preference. I cannot say much about this, but I can be sure about its performance will be definitely at best with that MT6577 dual-core CPU.

Its quite confusing though, as this device is listed on the MT6577 category on Fastcardtech and their provided table of specs says a different CPU name. Kinda, weird but we’ll update this as soon as we confirm the correct data.
