Both phones are the latest release of the two local phone brands. Clashing out with almost similar specs but one may offer a few goodies better than the other.

The two devices sports the same 5.7 inch HD IPS screen but the Iceberg is built with tough Gorilla Glass 2 compared to Blaze 2.0  *Asahi protection. One thing to note is that on-screen buttons on the blaze that reduces working screen of the device. On the other hand, MyPhone made use of capacitive buttons which means you will be able to use most of the screen. It is apparent that MyPhone Iceberg got this techpoint.

Lets look on the innards. With 1.2 GHz Quad MT6589  Processor complimented with 1GB RAM would make both machine perform and multitask better. Again in this category they just differ in phone memory - 16GB on Ice and 4GB on Blaze 2.0. This will give Iceberg users the ability to store more and download apps. Well we don't know yet the usable space available for Ice but it looks like it wins this one too. ***Update: The Iceberg does not have a microSD slot but still 16GB is big enough.

Wait a minute... Dont go yet. We still have the cameras to look out. Both sports BSI 12MP rear snapper. The Ice has 5MP while Blaze 2.0 has 3MP front. Cant perform a test here cause actual unit of Ice not yet here and I don't have a test unit ;P - hahaha I wish. Lets move on.

**Oh they do share same connectivity so I skipped it. Obvious Tie.

The Ice measuring at 161 x 82.5 x 8.9mm is taller and thinner than Blaze 2.0 at 157.8 x 83.3 x 9.9mm. But hey they both seems to weighing the same but it must be pointed out the this might be the case considering the said aluminum body of Iceberg against polycarbonate plastic on Blaze 2.0. Battery life may be the same considering 2600 vs 2500 mah less of a difference but it really depends on your usage of data and apps.

We must give due credit to MyPhone for bringing a wide range of features when it comes to their phones like USB-OTG and now for the Iceberg - Cleaver Motion Feature, Anti-Theft App, and Wireless Display. Lets focus on the wireless display, is this Miracast Technology? If it is then big kudos to MyPhone for bringing it first into the local scene.

Clearly it has seems that the Iceberg is going to extinguish Cherry Mobile Blaze 2.0 in terms of notable spec difference and other functionality. However, with Cherry Mobile steep price - both phones will definitely give a good fight.  Cherry can also be commendable for bringing Big great devices to the people. Competition is better for the consumers such that it brings innovation and makes it available to any class of people.

So which one will you buy? It really depends on you and of course your budget. Either way both MyPhone and Cherry gave us great handsets.

***Oh by the way if you are hesitating to buy the Ice because of that horrendous Map by MyPhone it is good news that they took that out and will never seen light of day again. hahaha
