Vernee Apollo 2 Review – with 8GB RAM & features MediaTek’s latest X30 Processor

Earlier this year the smartphone was highlighted as one of the many smartphones that were showcased at this year’s MWC. What makes this device stand out from the crown is that apart from the Asus ZenFone AR, the Vernee Apollo 2 is the only smartphone with a massive 8GB ROM.

If you are a hardware freak like me then you will definitely love the Vernee’s upgrade to its former Apollo device. The Apollo 2 is an impressive device with the latest MediaTek X series processor with a more powerful 10 cores.
