Good Day! For anyone who also purchased PS5 online at Datablitz may I ask if you also received an email asking for verification. Please see photo for reference.

It's just awkward for me seeing this in national TV.

After 2.5yrs lumabas yung mga guhit kahit sobrang ingat ko sa phone. Nag start sa left and eventually dumami pero sobrang love ko kasi talaga tong pixel ko 🥲 planning to have a screen replcement pero sulit kaya? I’m afraid in the future magkakaguhit lang ulit. Also the battery now is kinda draining fast.

just bought a Galaxy s26 Ultra, after 4 days of using it napansin kong mabilis mag drain yung battery, for context Im a student so I have a class to attend so Im not doing any heavy task during the use pero 10 am palang 59% nalang agad yung battery ko? also mabilis siya uminit when using the camera and using the same SIM card mas mabilis pa signal ng Honor ALI-NX1 ko compared to this flagship phone, tell me should I have it replaced or may mali sa pag use ko ng phone?

As a long time iOS user first time ko mag android phone. This will be my secondary phone na mainly for media consumption kasi sobrang nice manood pag naka open yung phone pero sa labas i rarely open it kasi ang satisfying nun passport form factor. Nice to experience din na medyo ibang interface other than an iOS. Gets ko na yung mga naka best of both worlds haha. Tips and suggestions naman po to how to take care of a fold phone at hopefully tumagal naman.

Been a loyal Huawei fan since my Huawei P9 Lite, will be getting the Pura 90s Pro soon!

If I'm rich and I'm a dad, I don't mind haha kanya kanya yan

But yes, fresh kasi ung look ni Fold8.

Waiting for iPhone Ultra.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 wins young users, ex‑iPhone fans in South Korea

The Fold8 is roughly an inch shorter than the Fold7 and the same width as the S26 Ultra closed. But this small difference has been a game changer in handiness. I agree with a common sentiment that this passport size should be a new option for non-foldables. But I still do welcome a folding device.

Netflix, disney+, google, dropbox, all of it started the same way. Cheap, easy, convenient. You didn't even think twice before signing up

Then the price hikes started and by that point you're too deep in the ecosystem to just leave. Apple just raised icloud prices again. Your photos are on Google photos. Your shows are split across four different apps. Your files are locked in Dropbox. That's the whole business model. Get you comfortable, get you dependent, then start squeezing

selfhosting is the way out. Buy the hardware once, set it up, and it's yours. No subscription, no random price hike email in your inbox every January, no 40 page terms of service written to protect them and not you. Just your movies, music, photos and backups sitting in a NAS box that answers to nobody but you. Not gonna get into setup here but Arr Suite, Jellyfin and Ente Photos (selfhosted) can replace most of what you're currently paying for. Look into them

Everything is a subscription now. So the question is can you keep paying forever? or is it time to actually own your stuff again

Apple’s upcoming iPhone Ultra foldable is expected to launch in September 2026 with a price tag of around $2,199. Analysts say this could push iPhone prices up by 11% by 2027, making it Apple’s most expensive iPhone yet.

I am currently eyeing on the A57 since people praise the software optimization of One UI and the long-term software support, but is it really that good? And as a power user, I want an all-rounder that is gaming-capable and decent cameras for its class. So, I am also considering the Nord 6 for the same price bracket. Pero torn ako kasi mas kilala si samsung tried and tested na pero mas maganda naman specs ng Oneplus. Isa din sa rason kung bakit ako napa-upgrade agad noon to Poco kasi need ko din ng better chipset.
