I speculate that Samsung drew inspiration from the OPPO Find N2 and HUAWEI Pura X Max in developing the Galaxy Z Fold 8, a foldable with a wider aspect ratio designed for richer multimedia experiences.

These upgrades promise to give residents and businesses faster, more reliable mobile connectivity that supports learning, commerce, and community resilience.

A few weeks ago before Oneplus announced that they were leaving the international market, I bought the Oneplus 15 and its been a great phone so far. It was my final choice for my first flagship phone as it has all the features I need. But after I paid for it and while unboxing it at the store, one of the salesmen said something along the lines of 'Sa ganyang presyo, dapat nag iphone ka na lang.' Medyo nahiya ako dun kasi may ilang customers rin sa store na nakatingin nung tinetesting ko yung phone.

I know the base model Iphone 17 is around the same price as the Oneplus 15 but I really prefer android. Oneplus also has a bigger battery capacity. No hate towards Iphone tho, its UI and colors are really good. I just don't like unsolicited comments. Okay sana kung random stranger ang nagsabi nun pero salesman nagsabi kung kelan nabayaran ko na yung phone. Kahit ako di ko sasabihin sa iba na mag android phone ka na lang kasi ibat iba mga preferences natin. In the end, I just told the salesman that I prefer android and left it at that.

Okay parin naman ang Digital Walker. Just a weird, one off experience.

Best rate right now? Can voucher stacking in Samsung website/app beat this price without trade-ins?

Vouchers used are UB 15% discount and store’s 2k discount.

Got a chance to attend the local preview last week and the Samsung Galaxy Fold8 (full hands-on here) is easily my favorite foldable so far.

• Love the size. You can reach everything even with one hand esp kapag you're using the outer display. Ang dali din ibulsa kasi lightweight siya, manipis din.
• 4:3 aspect ratio is more for the content and the multiasking
• Still just as powerful as the pricier Fold8 Ultra if you con't mind having the dual cameras

The prices are steeper this year (fuck AI), but you can take advantage of the offers para makamura.

Happy to see 5G back sa HUAWEI devices.

Nagpaparamdam na ang bagong foldables. Nung kinompyut ko ang offer ng UnionBank, aabutin ng Php 107k+ ang SRP.

Planning to trade in my S24 Ultra for the all new Galaxy Fold8 in a new shape *amaaayzing btw*

Ito na best deal na nakuha ko so far. And huhu the Samsung Reservation+ voucher doesnt stack pala with trade ins.

May iba pa bang vouchers na di konalam? Or eto nanba best possible deal? 🥲🥲

Hoping may ma squeeze pa na konting discount para ma check out na agad.

Had a hard time deciding between ZFold 8 (Wide) and the Ultra especially di ko pa sila nahahawakan personally. Hinahabol ko rin kasi yung 14k discount since hanggang July 23 na lang siya.

Medyo sad voucher offerings ngayon tapos di pa stackable. Also no free storage upgrade.

Anyway, decided to go with Ultra to replace my Fold 5.

Vouchers used:

- LS-PHGALAXYUNPACKED (Until July 23)

- Samsung Reservation+ Voucher (Php 2000 but worth Php 6000 when used)

Samsung launches the Galaxy Z Flip8. Price in the Philippines starts at ₱77,990 for the 256GB model.

Now available for pre-order with double storage promo, trade-in offers, and more.

Details here.

Gets ko pa rin naman if malls can be a viable option such as;

-Peace of mind that the package will not be tampered

-If there is a defect out of the box, it can be easily replaced

-There are demo phones

-Electricity, employee pay, and being strictly msrp-based, etc.

-If very high value for example an 80k+ macbook, since you have enough budget to spend big to do so, it's viable to place your money for the safer route.

However, I've seen a significant difference between mall pricing and online pricing. Like for example, the Galaxy S25 FE. If online the 256GB variant was purchaseable for 28k pesos. Pero noong nakita ko yung physical store pricing the difference is insane to those who will not afford it there, the same configuration costs whopping 46K. That's basically iPhone 17/S26 money already. Even the Galaxy A57, sa online pinakamababa is 15k meanwhile sa physical store the msrp is 30k. At 30k, for my money's worth I should be getting premium flagship killers already.

There's a level I can pay more for peace of mind, but the 10-15k difference for the same product is too big to consider. Kau ba?

Hello, Im really torn in choosing laptop vs building a PC for my first major tech purchase ever.

For context, Im a casual gamer, I have a full time job, already owned a mid-tier laptop before, and I think fit talaga ang laptop sa lifestyle ko -- madadala ko siya pag bibisita sa family ko etc etc, or if I decided na maghanap na ng sariling place (di hassle lumipat)

Problem is, budget ko lang around 80k php, can stretch to 90k max. and looking kasi ako for a laptop na decent gaming specs (i.e. rtx 5060, 16gb ram, upgradable storage, ryzen 7 / intel eq), Prio brands: ASUS/Lenovo, and brandnew. Nagcanvass na ako sa gilmore and other shops, and 100k+++ na yung mag mmatch sa specs na gusto ko (Lenovo legion / TUF gaming series) :<<<<

If bumili ako lower tier, chances few yrs from now di ko na rin siya malalaro same as before (i.e. genshin)

May point ba this yr or next yr na bababa price ng laptop (parang malabo dahil sa AI)? Or give up na at mag build na lang ng PC? May tips or insights ba kayo for this plsss

Ano po kaya problem ng laptop ko, bigla na lang nag black screen yung laptop ko. gumagana sya yung screen lang talaga hindi, nirestart ko na ng ilang ulit pero same pa rin. sana may makatulong. Thank you so much!

Looking to get a zfold 8 in the online store. Any codes would be appreciated

Hi, everyone!

Recently bought the laptop Acer Aspire Go 14 from Silicon Valley. It has a weird problem: it shuts down, restarts, and forces itself to recovery. Cycle repeats itself again and again. Pero here’s the weird thing: This only happens when I go OUTSIDE of our house. It works perfectly fine at home which is weird.

I initially wanted it to be replaced by Silicon Valley since nung July 13 ko lang binili. But they said I couldn’t since sira na raw yung box. Ganon ba talaga yun? Hard-earned money ko rin naman yung 38k for this. Huhu.

Baka alam niyo problem nitong laptop. Really desperate to fix it. :(((

May flickering pink and green lines kasi sa display ng gaming laptop ko at yung corners naman nag-dark na siya. So dinala ko sa repair shop. Need daw palitan yung lcd. I agreed kaagad sa 6K cost ng repair basta maayos lang. May downpayment akong binigay kasi need pa nila i-order yung parts.

After waiting for 1.5months saka pa lang dumating yung order. Pero sabi sa akin, yung display ganun pa rin. Hindi naman daw defective yung bagong parts. Flex cable is ok din. Nasa motherboard na raw yung sira and ayaw na nila galawin yung area na yun. So parang I waited for nothing.

Is this common sa tech industry? Like parang trial and error ang gawin? Ayaw ko naman bayaran ang buong 6K kung hindi naman siya ayos. I'm not sure if ito ang right thing to do pero pwede bang bayaran ko na lang ang labor cost at ipabalik ko yung original parts?

Also, pinagiisipan kong ibenta na lang ang laptop ko for parts para may pangdagdag to buy new one

Halooo! Mom’s planning to upgrade from her iPhone 13 na gamit niya since 2021. Medyo mabagal na daw for her so I think due na rin talaga for replacement. 😅

Which one would you recommend : iPhone 17e 256GB (₱38.7k) or iPhone 16 128GB (₱43.5k)? Budget is around 45k.

Basic user lang naman siya. Messenger, Facebook, TikTok/YouTube, browsing, and taking casual photos. 128GB din current phone niya and hindi naman niya napupuno.

Planning to keep the new phone for another 4–5 years din probably. Which one would be more practical and better long-term?

Thank you!

Hi! Nag pa-plano ako bumili ng Steam Deck LCD na 2nd hand. First Handheld pc ko to kapag nagkataon. Mga games na plano ko laruin sa ngayon ay Hoyoverse titles like Honkai: Star Rail, Honkai Impact 3rd, Maybe ZZZ if available? Saka Grand Chase.

Magtatanong lang kung magkano reasonable price ng 2nd hand na SD LCD?

Or mag gaming tablet nalang ako?

Thanks!

Which form factor do you prefer? The Galaxy Z Fold8 with a 5.5-inch display, the Fold8 Ultra with the standard 6.5-inch screen, or the Flip8's vertical 6.9-inch panel?

I'm looking to buy a new phone na budget-friendly, around 8-9k lang sana. Yung good for everyday use, since I only use my phone for messaging/social media apps, banking, online shopping, transportation apps, notes, music, and youtube. Di ko ginagamit for gaming.

Ok sana ung camera (although di kailangan na sobrang high quality), bihira yung lags, less to none yung bloatware, may 2 sim card slots, at lagayan ng sd card.

Xiaomi Redmi 10c yung luma kong gamit, not really happy sa dami ng bloatware. But I'm still considering kung mag Redmi uli ako, or Oppo/Samsung na lang. TIA !

I need to pull the trigger for this steal price. 😁
