Unboxing the Noontec MovieHome V8 Media Player

Unboxing: Noontec MovieHome V8 Media Player In this day and age most of the media we consume comes from the internet. The computer, just like what Steve Jobs predicted, is the digital hub. Even if we get DVDs or CDs we have the option of transferring the content to our hard drives. This is the […]

Sony Ericsson Xperia Play Hands-on

Hands-on with the Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY We were able to spend some time with the Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY during a birthday celebration/baptism reception yesterday (unit owned by Mr. Chewy Chua of Tribal DDB). It was a surprisingly fun and great experience! This phone has been around for quite a while since it was […]

Audio-Technica PRO700 MK2 Hands-on

Hands-on with the “Bass Monster” Audio-Technica PRO700 MK2 We currently have a review unit of the Audio-Technica PRO700 MK2. This thing has so much bass it puts almost the entire Beats Audio line to shame. I’ve tried a lot of headphones in the last few months and nothing beats the deep, thumpy, hard-hitting, and punchy […]

HTC Sensation XL (with Beats) Review

HTC Sensation XL (with Beats) Review The challenge for Android handset makers is for them to innovate and differentiate as much as they can with the hardware because essentially they’re all using one operating system. I understand this 100% after trying out several Android handsets in the last few months. Essentially they’re all just the […]

iPhone 4S Review

iPhone 4S Review It’s 8:25PM, December 15, 2011 as I start writing this review. Normally there would be nothing special about this day but for today the Philippines Twitterverse is getting flooded with tweets about Apple’s iPhone 4S. Why? In just a few hours both Smart Communications and Globe Telecom will give out the iPhone […]

Samsung Galaxy Note Review

Samsung Galaxy Note Review The Samsung Galaxy Note is definitely not your ordinary mobile gadget because of it’s giant 5.3” screen. Actually the screen size is relative depending on your perspective. If you’re looking at this as a smartphone then obviously the 5.3” display is humungous. However if you’re treating it as a tablet then […]

Nokia N9 Review

Nokia N9 Review The Nokia N9 is probably one of the smartphones this year that was on my “I-need-to-review-that-or-else-epic-fail-me” list. I remember getting really impressed after watching the live stream of the reveal of the N9 by Nokia CEO Stephen Elop several months ago. Everything about the phone, especially the hardware design, was just breathtaking. […]

Timbre Gitara Headphones Review

Timbre Gitara Headphones Review Timbre is a local Filipino brand of headphones that’s gearing up to launch this December. Their first flagship product is called the “Gitara”. The cans are made in China but the product design is made here (art by Team Manila). One look at the cans and you know immediately that it […]

Soundfreaq Sound Stack Review

Soundfreaq Sound Stack Review The Sound Stack is the latest and most hi-fi product released by Soundfreaq. It’s much bigger compared to the previous models but it definitely packs more punch. The bigger drivers, subwoofers, and connectivity options make this a solid audio player for the living room or the office. It’s not as portable […]

Audio-Technica PRO5MK2 Headphones Hands-on

ATH-PRO5MK2 Headphones Hands-on Audio-Technica Philippines sent us a review unit of the ATH-PRO5MK2 Monitor Headphones. When we opened to box we were happy to find that the model they sent us was the one with a camouflage finish (looks army’ish). This is actually the can that I was considering when I was in the market […]

Samsung Galaxy Y Netphone Edition Review

Samsung Galaxy Y Netphone Edition Review The Samsung Galaxy Y (Netphone Edition) is probably one of the best entry-level smartphones available in the market today. It sells for just Php5,990 (Prepaid Kit) which is a steal if you think about the entire package you’re getting. We currently have a review unit courtesy of Smart (click […]

AKG K402 Headphones Review

AKG K402 Headphones Review When I was unboxing the AKG K402 I was a bit worried about the sound quality because of it looked so small and flimsy compared to the other headphones in my collection. However after testing it out for almost 2 weeks now I can honestly say that the AKG K402 is […]
