NVIDIA’s CEO and founder Jensen Huang certainly had a great keynote yesterday during the start of CES 2025. Unlike the typical boring keynotes at the beginning of tradeshows that few people attend (sometimes begrudgingly), Jensen’s keynote was delivered in front of a 14,000-strong crowd at the Michelob ULTRA Arena. This venue usually seats just 12,000. […]
Smart Money, the 2000s rival of GCash before it became the behemoth that we know it now, is coming back. Smart’s own payment gateway gained a lot of traction back in the 2000s and was eventually shelved in favor of PayMaya in 2016, created under PLDT’s Fintech arm, Voyager Innovations. Unfortunately, Maya hasn’t had the […]
The OPPO Find X8 has been my daily driver for almost a month now, and I’m convinced this is the camera phone to beat as we close out 2024. The brand’s strategic partnership with Hasselblad and its investments in AI have paid off for its latest flagship, and the photos produced by this formidable flagship […]
Review Verdict: The JBL Tour Pro 3 packs enough features into its buds to impress even jaded tech reviewers. Some of the features feel superfluous and merely drive the price up, especially in the Philippines. That doesn’t take away from the fact that they’re the best-sounding wireless buds we’ve tested. Pros Incredible ANC performance Excellent sound […]
Review Verdict: Kingston’s fast, tiny XS1000R Portable SSD is a great storage medium that photographers and videographers will love in the Philippines. However, its lack of ruggedization might be a literal deal breaker for some. Pros Tiny and light Solid performance 5-year warranty Cons No USB-C to USB-C straight connection No hardware-based encryption No ruggedization […]
Review Verdict: While there are certainly cheaper options, the SteelSeries Arctis Gamebuds are the best TWS currently in the market in the Philippines. Its excellent audio quality, ergonomics, reconfigurability, and actual, physical controls make it the perfect choice for the discerning gamer who wants only the best sound quality when they’re gaming. Pros Fantastic audio […]
If I told you there was a hybrid that cost less than a million pesos but felt and drove like a car twice its price, would you believe me? As unlikely as that sounds, the BYD Seal 5 DM-i is a plug-in hybrid that just slips under Php 1M in price but has features and […]
Review Verdict: The OPPO Find X8 might look a lot like an iPhone, but don’t let that stop you from checking it out for yourself. The cameras are insanely good, their performance is top-notch, and the insanely long battery life is just icing on the cake. Pros Great camera performance Flagship processor Insanely long battery […]
Review verdict: The HONOR Magic V3 is the perfect argument for foldable phones in the Philippines. When folded, it has the overall thickness of a regular phone and doesn’t suffer from the usual durability problems like the other foldables in its class. It’s the only foldable I’d use as a daily driver without a case, […]
SteelSeries has officially launched its new Arctis Gamebuds in the Philippines. Unlike other game-focused TWS buds, SteelSeries’ offering connects to PCs, PS5s, XBOX, and handheld consoles via Bluetooth and a 2.4GHz wireless dongle. This gives people the same response time as they would have if they were using dedicated wired headphones, eliminating the annoying lag […]
