What this hardware actually means
Editorial interpretation generated from the device's self-reported fields and our SoC tier database. Cross-reference with the raw fields below; if you spot a contradiction, please tell us.
Platform & performance positioning
The docomo SO-04G reports its platform as Snapdragon 801. The CPU configuration is 4-core, Krait, running up to 300 - 2457 MHz. The GPU is Qualcomm Adreno (TM) 330. Without a confirmed SoC tier mapping for this platform string, we treat the device as unverified. If you're using this entry to compare against a phone you're inspecting, focus on the raw fields below rather than tier-level conclusions.
Day-to-day workload
2 GB LPDDR3 of RAM is below the realistic minimum for current Android — expect Android to aggressively kill background apps. Display resolution is 1184x720.
This record reflects Android API level 23 (6.0). Android 7 or older — effectively retired; very few modern apps will run, and Google Play Services support is limited.
Trust & buying notes
Because this entry runs Android 6.0, treat it as a reference for older inventory: refurb shops sometimes flash old firmware to make a device look "stock," so a modern build date with this API level is a red flag.
