Review: Google Nexus 7 When it comes to value for money with tablets, you can’t go wrong with the Google Nexus 7. For $200 (roughly Php8,600 directly converted to Php) you get a blazing fast, elegantly designed, and most update-ready Android tablet. Initially I wasn’t buying into the hype but after using this for more […]
Hands-on with the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 I currently have a review unit of the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (courtesy of Samsung Philippines). Truth be told, I was excited to try this one out because I’m a huge fan of the original Samsung Galaxy Note. The main benefits for me were really the abilities to […]
Unboxed: Google Nexus 7 It’s been a while since I was last excited for an Android tablet. Android is making huge strides for smartphones but their OS still isn’t ready to compete with iOS on the tablet platform.

The Sony Xperia Acro S looks like one of the best smartphones that Sony has produced. We say that because this is one of the first smartphones we’ve seen that combines good technical specifications with built-in protection and ruggedness.

I personally think that’s the case for the ASUS Eee Pad MeMo 171. This tablet actually looks awesome […]

Lenovo S800 Unboxed It’s not everyday that you get to play around with a phone that has a transparent display. That’s why we were still thrilled to when the box of the Lenovo S800 arrived on our doorstep! Don’t get your hopes up though when it comes to features. The S800 doesn’t pack Android. If […]
Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 4.2 Review The Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 4.2 launched in the Philippines a few weeks ago. We were able to get a loaner unit from Samsung to test out for a couple of weeks for this review. We’ve pretty much put it through the paces already and we’re ready to share […]
REVIEW: The Lenovo P700 We get a lot of gadgets and devices here at Unbox. Most of the time the ones that capture our attention are the higher priced and premium gear. There’s been a trend lately though of mid-range smartphones becoming more powerful and since they’re priced competitively you actually get a lot of […]
The HTC One X has been out in the market for quite a while now but only a few people were able to buy it because of the steep price. That’s all about to change though since Smart just announced that they’re exclusively going to offer the HTC One X through their postpaid plans. Available […]
Lenovo P700 Dual SIM Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Smartphone There are only a few smartphones priced at Php10,999 that can get my attention.
