Vernee Apollo review Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Vernee Apollo is a MediaTek flagship, which isn’t quite what we expect from Qualcomm Snapdragon flagships, but a very decent phone nonetheless.

The MX6 still has a great deal to offer at around £250, but we’re not keen on Flyme OS or mTouch, and the MX6’s camera isn’t the best example we’ve seen.
