Samsung might launch a foldable phone in Q3 2017 — because it can

In Phones, Tablets by Alora Uy GuerreroJanuary 12, 2017Leave a Comment

WE’VE seen foldable mobile devices, but they’re all just concepts — stuff that look cool but may never see the light of day. Not in the near future. Maybe not ever. None of them have gone into production just yet. But that may change soon.

In Phones by Ramon LopezJanuary 12, 2017Leave a Comment

CHERRY Mobile has a new phone on the market — and it isn’t the dual-screen Taiji, which could unceremoniously launch this month or the next. The flavor of the week (or the next few weeks?) is the Cherry Mobile Cosmos Three (click for complete specs), a phone we played around with alongside the Defender and Taiji in mid-November. It’s currently rolling out to stores nationwide with a P9,999 price tag.

ASUS ZenFone 3 Zoom finally gets priced… in China

In Phones by Ramon LopezJanuary 11, 2017Leave a Comment

ASUS unveiled the ZenFone 3 Zoom last week at CES 2017, but gave no word on how much it will cost when it drops in stores next month. The consensus is that it could be pretty expensive because of the advanced dual-camera array strapped to its back. But now we know the price of the top-of-the-line Zoom variant (click for complete specs).

Huawei Honor Magic is smarter than your smartphone

In Phones by Ramon LopezJanuary 10, 2017Leave a Comment

IT’S the final call at CES 2017 in Las Vegas. It’s been weird and at the same time brilliant. We’ve seen some memorable tech over the past week, and we’re very much looking forward to the day some of the products arrive in Philippine stores. Or maybe they won’t — because it’s totally plausible that most of the devices we’ve covered won’t make the trip to this side of the planet.

IT’S been 10 years since Steve Jobs introduced the original iPhone. Yes, it has been that long. Today, the iPhone remains Apple’s most important product and its biggest cash cow, though it hasn’t been smooth-sailing for the Cupertino-based tech firm lately.

OPPO A39 is a smaller, cheaper F1s minus the selfie camera we love

In Phones by Ramon LopezJanuary 9, 2017Leave a Comment

THERE’S a new OPPO smartphone on the Philippine market, this time carrying a more affordable price tag than the one that came with the P12,990 ($262) OPPO F1s. In keeping with that comparison, we like to think of it as a smaller, cheaper version of the F1s sans a fingerprint sensor and the 16-megapixel front camera that made us do a double take.

3 new Xiaomi products we wish were on their way to the rest of the world

In Business, Phones by Alora Uy GuerreroJanuary 6, 2017Leave a Comment

AND when we say “the rest of the world,” we meant outside Xiaomi’s native China. Because while we had initially thought that the company joining CES for the first time meant an announcement of a concrete roadmap for its entry to the U.S., it turned out that we had thought wrong.

Is this the Samsung Galaxy S8?

In Phones by Ramon LopezJanuary 6, 20172 Comments

IT’S early in the new year, which means the internet is again rife with rumors about the possible design, specs, features, and whatnot of the next Samsung Galaxy flagship. We’ve heard quite an earful about how different (and how important) the Samsung Galaxy S8 would be compared to its predecessors, but so far we haven’t seen anything in the wild to confirm or support those claims. Until now.

BlackBerry with keyboard teased. Could this be the brand’s savior?

In Phones by Alora Uy GuerreroJanuary 5, 2017Leave a Comment

YOU have to give it to brands that just don’t give up no matter how many times they have been knocked down. Think Nokia. And this time, think BlackBerry. It seems that TCL, the Chinese electronics company that inked a deal with BlackBerry Limited to make smartphones under the BlackBerry brand, is hell-bent on reviving the once-iconic name.

$250 Honor 6x’s dual-camera setup works like the iPhone 7’s

In Phones by Alora Uy GuerreroJanuary 4, 2017Leave a Comment

IT’S inevitable. With more and more smartphone companies riding the dual-camera wave, we’re also bound to see more, cheaper handsets with two rear cameras to go on sale. Honor, a sub-brand of China’s Huawei, will do exactly just that with its plan to release the Honor 6x (click for complete specs and prices) outside its home turf.
