Since this is my first post, I think it is best that I will review the gadget that’s always with me, my cellphone. It is a Cherry Mobile M35 Integra TV Phone, sounds like a China phone? Yes, it is, but it’s NTC (National TeleCommunications) approved, so there’s no need to worry.
Here are its specifications:
- Dual SIM/Dual Standby
- 2.0 Megapixels camera
- Dual Camera (front and back)
- Functional MMS and GPRS/WAP
- Large 2.2” QVGA TFT LCD display
- Color TV function
- Motion Sensor
- Stereo Speakers
- FM Radio
- Multimedia MP4 A/V player
- E-book Reader
- MP3/polyphonic ringtones
- T-flash card expandable memory
This mobile phone is user-friendly as its major functions resemble a nokia phone. It’s also light-weight and easy to slip into a shirt’s pocket or even purse, so you can carry it anytime, anywhere with much greater ease. It has a sleek silver and gray color combination.
The camera produces clear images/pictures with its 4x zoom capability, while its video has x10 zoom. You can simultaneously listen to FM Radio while texting. But what I love most in this product is that I can watch TV anywhere and anytime I want with clear reception, no delay in telecast (meaning, what is being shown on a normal TV set is the same with this unit), several channels are clearly viewable (ABS-CBN, GMA, S23, ABC 5).
Longer battery life, which can last up to 3-4 days with normal (text, call, listen to music, watch TV, take pictures and videos) use as long as charging instructions are followed correctly. Price ranges from P5, 500.00 – P6, 500.00 so it’s very affordable and cost-effective; ideal for people, like me, who are always on the go.

I have one, and i'm happy with it, user friendly and excellent design, the only glitch is it doesn't have any theme and you can't download message alert tones.
Overall, great phone
yeah, that's right, also it does not have an accessory holder to hang on...
but it still serve its main purpose...
have one too. serves its purpose. just one question, does its battery have a nokia counterpart just like torque phones??
As far as I know, it doesn't have a nokia battery counterpart, yet. But I'm just glad that my battery can last up to a week with normal use.
i just bought my phone sept. 22 at hypermart mandaluyong city. its a great phone. my first time to use with its new kind of brand but i think its great with such a great price. tess from bplo mand.
i noticed that the music i download does not play continuously but instead after one song it stops.then i have to play the next song manually which i feel uncomfortable .
also the music cannot be set as ringing tone or maybe Techie Lady knows how to do it.
pls help. thanks....
tess santos from BPLO
hi tess!
All you have to do is go to menu, then to multimedia, scroll down until you see the audio player then you will see your music collection press the center button and it will continuously play. You may even exit and go to the standby mode or send and receive message while the music is still playing on the background.
I hope this will help.
i've read from another forum that the nokia bl5c battery is compatible...
im planning to buy m35 too.
@ anonymous,
that's good news. I really haven't tried it, but in case you've proven it to be true, that the nokia battery is compatible, will you be kind enough to post it here so that we can help inform the others, too?
thanks!
hi, just bought mine yesterday but i couldn't find menu on volume adjustment when playing the audio player. hope you could assist.
hi! the volume can be adjusted by pressing 2 to increase and 8 to decrease.
When watching the Tv, the same keys can be press to adjust the volume, too
the nokia battery counterpart of it is the BL-5B
im just a bit scared to use the tv mode with its thin antenna sticking out. but overall. its worth it. -jim
You need not be scared. the antenna is durable and not vulnerable.:-)
can we use uzzap with this kind of phone?
Does anyone knows what the wavy icon represents? It sometimes pop up next to the signal strength
just bought yesterday and I love the "schedule power on and off"
how do i transfer pictures or videos from my cherry mobile to my Mac?
is the e-book reader okay? i mean is the text viewable?
also, when you're watching TV, is it only thru loudspeaker, or you can also use a headphone?
thanx for ur answers...

BL-5B, nokia bl5c battery. compatibility ? post here if its TESTED or not so that all of us will benefits. thanks.
Im looking for the themes and other application but i think no software is available for M35 cherry mobile. that made me feel sucks !! haayyyyy.. HOpe someone will do about it! ...
Hi Techie lady,
I am cherrym35 mobile user. And i am very thankful having this kind of unit cuz its very cute and handy..and its not obviously looks like a china phone..In short im very satisfied for having this. but i have one problem, ican't switch the camera from front to back. I tried to explore the keypad inorder to search my concern. Until i discovered the zero/space key, when i pressed that key its appears there "camera switch?"..then i told to myself YES!!but after that the camera did not switch. can you help me with my problem cuz i dont have a manual to rely on...please post your feedback..thanks
@renante,
you can go to multimedia, scroll and click camera, when the camera is already working, press options (found at the lower left corner of the screen, scroll to self capture mode, turn it on and press back. You can now see your face looking at you (lol)
When you want to change the camera setting, just turn the self capture more off.
I hope this helps you.

downloaded videos from the net aren't that great to be viewed... you still need to convert the file format and it's not even worth it afterwards...
hi may i just ask u guys what shortcut key do i need to press when turning on/off the m35 phone :
hi. how do I change the time from a.m. to p.m.?
uhmmm, good day mis techie lady.
does the m35 support mms/gprs???
tnx in advance ^^
@ Jean,
unfortunately, this unit does not support mms/gprs
have been enjoying my m35 for 4 mos now, enjoy watching tv and listen to downloaded music, sounds are great with earphones. am just frustrated though w/ its limited msg tones which are also not that great (typical chinese tones). ringtones on the otherhand can be added/changed. dont know if you can also add games. Got problems lately, phone automatically shuts down after a call even if fully charged. would you know if they have a service center here in makati? thanks.
hi, how do you set the video recording in such a way that the recorded scene is clear and smooth. the videos i have recorded looks like they're static and slow. thanks.
no Techie Lady. It supports gprs settings.. just search on web.
hi, how do you make the tv function clearly? its always weak signal or nothing to view.
yung cherry m35 ko hindi na nagchacharge. 3 months pa lang sa akin. nasabi ko na distributor ang problema ko pero hanggang ngayon wala pang sagot :-(
1. User must be able to disable Smart ABC,Smart abc,Simplified Chinese Stroke, Smart PinYin because switching to capital or small letters mode take several key stroke.
2. One cannot personalize his message tone.
I regret buying it I have to sell it at half the price just after 2 days of use.

gud pm techie lady,,, i just bought my m35 cherry last month and it seems to be functioning very well until lately. the file manager cant cant seem to be open and the files that i saved were reformatted. for example the folders before were just plain like audio, now its audio.exe.. i really dont know what to do with it. i cant transfer any files anymore to my phone.
Hi, does anyone knows if there is a mute switch for the microfone on the m35??? since some days nobody can hear when i am calling!!
Hi, can anyone give a feedback on their experience using the M35's camera? Mine sucks... ang pangit. Parang first generation phone camera. Is this expected or something is wrong with my unit? Thanks.

I cannot add mp3 files sa audio player.. I dont know why. Refresh ko..wala din.. sa setting wala din.. kahit ilagay ko na sa folder ng Audio.. hayysss..
Im starting to regret buying this unit..
keypad hirap din gamitin esp. #1 and #7..
battery last only max 2 days.
also regret buying Q8 phone from Cherry mobile. may defect na agad ang phone; lagi naka headset ang settings, wala ang function sa pag change ng profile. the unit can not recognize a charger and a headset, this is a bug. battery is not charging, isang tawag lang drain na agad, and charger after 3 months ay sira na din. sayang lang pera ko. hopefully ako lang ang naka-encounter nito and more are satisfied with their units.
can i use bluetooth earphones while using T.V in my M35? hope u can answer this Techie Lady. thanks.
Gino
any idea where i can download games for m35? thanks
hi...
im having problem with my cherry mobile file manager, i cant access anymore its contents (pics, music, mms, etc)....the pics can still be viewed in the photo folder, but thru the file manager, it cannot anymore....and i cant download those pics to my laptop...help!
add mp3 files to your "My Music" folder. then go to audio player, just refresh. and the songs are there.
is it tri-band? im going to UK pls help.. coz i really love the phone so much :)
uhm. i'm planning to buy this phone.. some reviews were pretty good but some are just way bad. i don't know if i'll be risking my money over it. i know it doesn't cost that much but since i'm overwhelmingly frugal, i felt the need to check it out personally. does it have bluetooth? just hoping cause it would totally make my file transferring convenient from mobile to laptop. thanks for whatever response i may get! :)
