It’s been a while since I’ve heard news from Starmobile, and the latest from the homegrown mobile brand might be worth your time — and hard-earned pesos — if you plan on doing some last-minute gadget shopping before Valentine’s Day.
The OPPO F1, first smartphone in the company’s F series of devices has yet to officially debut in the Philippines, but apparently it has been available locally, albeit in limited quantities and in select stores ahead of its February 17 launch event.
Official confirmation has been made that LG’s next superphone, the LG G5, is indeed slated to debut on February 21, which is also the launch date for the Samsung Galaxy S7.

Has Yahoo hung up a “for sale” sign on the window? If you ask company chairman Maynard Webb, the answer would be a soft “yes,” following a press statement that said the Silicon Valley Internet giant will “engage on qualified strategic proposals” amid efforts to reverse its failing fortunes. Which is to say that reasonable offers to purchase the business, or parts of it, will be entertained.

The short answer is yes, at least according to one market research firm. The latest report from TrendForce is out, and the survey shows that smartphone shipments in 2015 grew 10.3 percent year-on-year to 1.293 billion units, nearly half of which, or 539 million, came from brands from the Far East.

A year after its unveiling at the 2015 International CES, ASUS is finally ready to show off the ZenFone Zoom and its 3x optical-zoom range in all its final glory, with at least one local tech blog saying that the long-speculated camera phone will retail for P26,995 when it arrives in the Philippines next week.
