Why Cherry Mobile Thunder 2.0 is “Cheap”?

It’s the RAM my friend. Thunder 2.0 has 512 MB of RAM only. That means you can’t open too many apps at the same time because it will cause lags or stutters. For example, playing music in the background while texting is okay but playing music while also playing Temple Run 2 will make your gaming experience less than desirable.

If you’re not an overly techie person, 512 MB of RAM should be enough for your needs. But if you want to play Need for Speed Most Wanted or other resource intensive games with your phone, you better look for other cheap quad core smartphones here.
