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 philips Philips E289 is built around the MT6739, an entry-level SoC from MediaTek. It launched in 2017 on a TSMC 28nm process. Late-2010s budget Android Go SoC for sub-$100 phones.
Legacy. Realistically only basic Android Go apps run usably.
Day-to-day workload
Display resolution is 320x240.
This record reflects Android API level 27 (8.1). Android 8–9 — legacy; many banking and DRM apps drop support at this level.
Trust & buying notes
If you're cross-checking a phone advertised as a philips Philips E289, the fields most worth verifying are: Build.MANUFACTURER lowercase-equal to "philips"; Build.SOC_MODEL set (Android 12+) and consistent with MT6739. For an automated check, run our Hardware Trust Score from the DevCheck AI app and compare its output against this entry.
Because this entry runs Android 8.1, 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.
