realme Narzo 50i
(from Php 6,290 to Php 4,799)
When it comes to the entry-level, the realme Narzo 50i is a decent contender. We reviewed it fairly recently and found that its octa-core processor, 6.5-inch LCD display, and basic cameras make it a usable phone for everyday life. If your goal is just to use this for calls, texting, social media, and watching YouTube content then this is a tool you could use on the go. With a price of below Php 5,000 during this sale, you wouldn’t be too afraid of taking it literally anywhere either. Buy it here.Â
realme GT Master Edition
(from Php 18,890 to Php 15,490)
The realme GT Master Edition is an amazing well-rounded package, even earning a slot in our best mid-range phones of 2021. Designed by Herman Miller and MUJI designer Naoto Fukusawa, the Master Edition’s unique back as well as overall performance will stun you. Its Snapdragon 778G processor is more than adequate not only for daily tasks but also for gaming, as evidenced by our Friday night Genshin Impact streams. This also packs 65W super-fast charging capabilities and a competent 64-megapixel shooter, turning it into a budget blockbuster hit. Getting this during the 12.12 sale would be a no-brainer if you’re looking for a superb phone that won’t break the bank. Buy it here.
realme 7
(from Php 14,990 to Php 9,539)
Now for just a smidge under Php 10,000, the realme 7 comes with a 6.5-inch 90Hz full HD+ display protected by Gorilla Glass 3, a MediaTek Helio G95 processor, 8GB of RAM for multitasking, and a Sony IMX682 camera sensor. Less hyped but welcome additions are the retained headphone jack, simple-to-use side-mounted fingerprint scanner, and a decent battery life. It took almost 8 hours for the battery to go down to 20% from a full charge in our review. Overall, it has a lot of competitors in that space but it finds itself as one of the top choices, especially now that it’s on sale. Buy it here.Â
realme Book (Core i5)
(from Php 47,990 to Php 41,990)
The realme Book is a thin-and-light laptop that is designed to be a productivity machine for on-the-go individuals. The unique14-inch 3:2 aspect ratio display pulls out a clear 2160×1440 resolution with good color accuracy but falls short a bit on the brightness at 307 nits. The 11th-generation Intel Core i5 chip in this laptop performs relatively well to its competitors, and the 8GB of soldered-on RAM should be enough for most consumers. We were thoroughly impressed by it in our review, and we still think that this machine is a good choice for the years moving forward. Buy it here.
realme Robot Vacuum
(from Php 16,990 to Php 13,690)
Straying away from realme’s conventional lineup of phone products, their TechLife Robot Vacuum is a quirky but essential piece of home hardware. According to the official realme website, this is advertised to have 3000Pa of sucking power for any form of dirt you may have. It’s 5200 mAh battery will keep going, and then automatically recharge itself at the dock once it’s running low on juice. The LiDAR system will ensure that most spots are cleaned through, while smart mapping allows for customizable settings on suction power and moisture use per area of your living space. If you need anything from the vacuum, it supports voice assistants like Amazon Alexa and Google Voice. This piece of domestic technology can take a beating according to realme’s advertised durability tests, and is ready to become your intelligent partner in making cleaning around the house more efficient.
