Instagram now lets users reorder their posts on their profile iOS 27 Adds Native Baybayin Keyboard to iPhone: Here is How to Enable It AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE announced GPD MicroPC 2 with Intel Core 3 N350 announced Nintendo Direct to unveil Switch 2 games for second half of 2026

I think this year will end with the most number of highly anticipated phones from all corners of the mobile market. Almost all the big players had given their all and it’s up to the consumers to decide who’s the big winner.

So, which smartphone is the biggest winner for you? We’ve got a bunch on the list.

Apple iPhone 3G – Php37k
Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 – Php45k
Nokia N96 – Php38k
Nokia E71 – Php23k
Palm Centro – Php18k
Samsung Omnia SGH i900 – Php38k
Samsung Innov8 – Php35
LG KF750 Secret – Php25k
HTC Touch Pro – Php51k
HTC Touch Diamond – Php42k

smartphones
I’ve omitted from the list the models that have not been launched, priced or widely available in local stores to make the selection short and more realistic. That takes the Android G1, Nokia 5800, Motorola Q 11, LG KC 910 Renoir and Samsung Instinct off the list.

So if you had the budget and are up to getting new smartphone this Christmas, which of the above models would you likely get?

ano mas maganda X1 o OMNIA?

i just got an iPhone 3G. i could only refer to it in positive superlatives, to say the ironic least. i’m fine by the can’t-forward-sms booboo; i’m not into delivering to my friends their daily dose of inspirational quotes, so-corny-it’s-funny jokes or whatnot anyway. same goes with practically every other thing it lacks but other phones, even the entry-level ones, have championed. needless to say, i’ve become partial to this apotheosis of hypnotic marketing. :p

i had samsung omnia SGH i900 with me and I’m pretty happy with its performance, recently i added new applications to my phone to make it more prettier, and I think its better than before =)

I prefer N96 this christmas.

Still love the Palm Treo 680. At P25k, it’s more stable than the centro. :D

Iphone is good but I like Nokia N96 more.

I don’t really plan on buying a new phone anytime soon but if I had to choose one of those, it’s either the iPhone 3G or the Omnia. But I would never use it as a main phone. I still prefer tactile buttons over touchscreen.
