Starmobile R stands for Roar!!! Here's what it looks like. The Gold lining is very appealing but wished they applied it to the back housing.
The device will have 4.5 inch FWVGA Display and will be powered by 1.3GHz Mediatek 6582 Quad-Core Processor with Mali-400 GPU. Sadly only 512MB of RAM with 4GB Internal Storage that can be expanded via microSD slot.
For its camera, it does pack 8MP back camera with Flash and also have a 2MP Front camera. Though in the photos 5MP so it seems there's some magic interpolation going on.
Connectivity will be the regular WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and HSPA+ for data.
Battery is at only 1750mAh. You still get decent battery life considering the low resolution to work with.

Other features are Noise Cancellation, Wave Controls and it supports USB OTG. Additional features (ehem, bloatwares) like Clean Master, Pop Out Video, QR Scanner, Save Spirit, and among others.

It cores 17K in Antutu... Not Bad, MT6582 is better chipset for entry level to midrange. Roar has only 2 touch points so if your into multi-touch games then this one is not for you.
As Starmobile puts it "Innovative features in a strikingly gorgeous handset." We must admit it does look good and packs additional features though at it's price 4,690.00, you might be swayed and see what the other brands offer at that price. RAM is major issue such that competition has 1GB against ROAR 512MB. But it runs on Android KitKat which is optimized to run on small amount of memory so still fluid and smooth but you may lag with more Apps running on the same time. Beauty is great but seems it has so-so intelligence to multitask. It's more a Growl than a Roar.
