6 Must-Buy Android Smartphones under Php10000
Day after day, a LOT of smartphones have been introducing here and there. Sooo many to a point that you already don’t know which to choose. But what do Filipinos consider most? The value for money. Here are 6 Must-Buy Android Smartphones under Php10000 compiled by Yugatech:
( function() if (window.CHITIKA === undefined) window.CHITIKA = 'units' : [] ; ; var unit = 'publisher' : 'jojitdelapena', 'width' : 550, 'height' : 250, 'sid' : 'wordpress-plugin', 'color_site_link' : '0000CC', 'color_title' : '0000CC', 'color_text' : '000000', 'color_bg' : 'ffffff', 'font_title' : '', 'font_text' : '', 'impsrc' : 'wordpress', 'calltype' : 'async[2]' ; var placement_id = window.CHITIKA.units.length; window.CHITIKA.units.push(unit); var x = "<di" + "v id='chitikaAdBlock-"+placement_id+"'>"; document.write(x); ());
The new Zenfone 2 draw its inspiration from the success of its predecessor, the Zenfone 5. With a 5.5-inch full HD IPS display, powerful Intel Atom quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM and support for dual SIM LTE, the Zenfone 2 has become the gold standard in affordable yet powerful handsets. The base model of the ZE551ML variant comes with 16GB storage and 3,000mAh battery for Php9,995. If you have the extra dough, the higher variant has whopping 4GB of RAM, 64GB storage and faster 2.3GHz quad-core processor but that would already set you back Php14,995.
Huawei’s Honor series has been one of the most interesting for combining really good hardware at a very affordable price. The Honor 4X is powered by Huawei’s own octa-core processor paired with 2GB of RAM. It comes with a 5.5-inch HD IPS display, 13-megapixel camera, 3,000mAh battery and supports dual-SIM LTE for just Php8,990.
With a hardware specification almost the same as the Zenfone 2, the K3 Note offers a slightly lower price tag of Php8,599. That comes with a 5.5-inch full HD IPS display, an octa-core processor with 2GB of RAM, dual-SIM and LTE support with 3,000mAh battery. Take note though that this handset is not yet officially released and only available from gray market sellers.
Lenovo A7000 to launch in the Philippines
Lenovo seems to be saturating the sub-Php10k price pint with really good handsets. Their latest A7000 model which is priced at Php7,490 and has almost same specs except for the Dolby ATMOS sound technology. Since the K3 Note is not officially released yet (only gray market units), we’re more inclined to recommend this over the other.
Announced in the first quarter of this year, the M1 Note from Meizu was so in demand that retail stores have gone ahead and increased the selling price from Php7,990 to Php8,600. Still, with a 5.5-inch full HD display, octa-core processor and 2GB of RAM, people still bought the Meizu M1 Note at the slightly higher price. That, plus the fact that Meizu obviously took its design inspiration from the iPhone 5C. We’re not sure but that might have added to its charm among consumers.
Perhaps the most noisy entrant this year is from Alcatel. They introduced the Flash Plus this May with very good specs but an amazing price point — Php6,490. With that, you get a 5.5-inch HD IPS display, an octa-core processor with 2GB of RAM, dual-LTE support and a huge 3,500mAh battery. Lazada reported sold all 2,000 units of the Flash Plus in less than 10 minutes online. The Flash Plus has definitely shaken the smartphone market in this price segment.
The smartphones market has definitely become very competitive this year. There are many new players, both local and international. The growth has been staggering and we’re seeing new and better models almost every quarter.
Filipino consumers are very price-sensitive and it is still anyone’s ball game. Over 1 million smartphones were sold every month in 2014. We think 2015 is the biggest year for most phone brands. Just ask Cherry Mobile who took the top spot in the local smartphone market last year.
