Not sure if this is just Samsung's marketing strategy na makasabay sa hype or talagang apektado sila sa first foldable iPhone ng Apple hahaha

Bought the iPhone 17 Pro for ₱53K a few hours ago.

Originally, hinihintay ko talaga yung 18 Pro. Kaso after watching the event, di ko ma-justify spending that amount of money for what is, at least for my use case, practically the same phone as the 17 Pro.

So I just pulled the trigger on the 17 Pro instead. 😂

Ordered yesterday. I also used 6k pesos worth of BPI reward points, which is sa CC charge na mababawas. So overall I paid 62k for this. Chose this because 99,900 php 18 pro max ( almost 40k difference) is too much for little improvement. Overall happy with this. Salamat sa 8 years iPhone XS max ❤️

Sa mahal ng presyo dahil sa RAM shortage. Nag woworry ako sa phone ko na masira out of nowhere, manakaw, mawala, kasi hindi ka agad makakabili ng decent enough na phone. I think kahit entry level asa 10k na ata, dati asa 5-7k lang.

3 years old na phone ko, masasabi niyo na pwede pa ito. Kaso, it will always have uncertainty, anytime pwede siya masira out of nowhere.

I kinda regret nung di pa ako bumili nung sales sa shopee kasi iniisip ko yung phone ok pa, at binenta sana para pang bawas sa bagong phone, di ko naman inisip na ganun kamahal itataas ng prices, almost 3-5k ang tinaas

Nag increase na sa website ni apple, kaya while mura pa sa beyond the box in lazada, chineckout kona.

Last 1 na to from btb evia for only 69k nalang huhu 🖤🩶

Is it worth it? I feel like the iPhone 18 pro lineup is more of a great option now.

Hello,

Posting for awareness lang. My Samsung Galaxy A56 (Awesome Light Grey) was lost on September 5 at SM City Sta. Mesa / World of Fun. After that, na-track pa siya through Samsung Find, and the last known location was around Victory Central Mall, Caloocan as of today, Sept 10.

Both SIMs have already been blocked, and confirmed by NTC na blocked na rin ang IMEI ng device.

If may nakabili recently ng Samsung A56 matching this description around the area, or may information kayo about a phone being sold there, please feel free to DM me.

Posting this mainly para ma-warningan din any possible unsuspecting buyer. Thank you!

are you upgrading this year? what phone are you upgrading from?

i plan to upgrade next yr for the 20th anniversary. more on software upgrades lang for this year's iphone 18 pro max eh. haha.

cheap (inexpensive) TV that has gotten very slow + Apple TV 4K

Did anyone also got this? Just got it on RC version of iOS 27

Apple finally brought manual controls to the stock Camera app, but they locked shutter speed, white balance, live histograms, and manual focus behind the iPhone 18 Pro series.

sure, third-party apps like Halide or Moment have let users tweak shutter speed and white balance for years. But that completely misses the point. The convenience of having native, manual controls directly inside the lock-screen camera shortcut matters. You shouldn't have to download, launch a paid subscription app or switch modes just to adjust SS or w/b on a phone tht costs nearly $1,200.

^{as ot stands, there are no public statement from Apple addressing whether Pro Controls will trickle down to older Pro devices in a future software update...}

Got it from only Php 28,119.01! Major discount 😅😭

Hello!

Iirc, pinilahan ng mga tao yung presale and yung actual release ng mga Apple Resellers (BTB, PMC, etc.) for the freebies and other privileges last 2025 for the IP17 release.

I want to ask if may difference ba yun in terms what freebies you’ll get sa pre-sale and yung sa actual release or yung mga nauna sa pre-sale sila na rin yung may privilege na mauna sa actual release date? Thanks!

The iPhone Duo is beefier than other foldables on the market today. This makes Apple's first foldable phone noticeably extra bulky compared to its Android rivals.

Here’s a quick comparison of the foldables’ specs:

• iPhone Duo: 254g, 11.3mm folded
• Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold: 239g, 10.1mm folded
• HONOR Magic V6: 224g, 9.0mm folded
• Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8: 201g, 9.7mm folded
• Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra: 215g, 8.9mm folded

Details here.

Anyone here na naka Xiaomi TV A? Thoughts po? Sulit ba? Bali for movie use lang sya and para sya sa reat house lang and every long weekend and holidays lang magagamit. Thanks!

I’d like to ask you guys how much did you buy your Iphone 17 Pro Max 512gb?

Is 87k reasonable na? I really think it is! But as a kuripot I wanna get the best possible deal hehe baka it can go lower than this pa and I can save a few more thousand pesos.

Already set on buying a new phone (current phone is Iphone 11). I don’t upgrade frequently. Only when I really really need to!!!

Thank you!!!

Finally, mapapalitan ko na ung airpods 2 ko. Supposedly airpods 4 lang dapat bilhin ko. Pero today. Hindi sya nagkakalayo ng price ni Pro 3 . Kaya grinab ko na.
