Verzio closes BHS Concept Store

Listen to article

Singapore-based Verzio entered the Philippine market way back in 2007, introducing one of the first branded dual-SIM phones (as well as laptops and cameras).

I still remember someone from Italy emailing me asking for help to buy a couple of these dual-SIM cellphones.

Since then, they’ve sparingly launched newer products or models but had a very noticeable presence with their huge concept store at the Bonifacio High Street (aside from the Alabang and Davao stores).

Last night, I noticed that their BHS store has closed down (with no notice of any renovation, relocation or re-opening).

Not exactly sure what’s going on but I guess it’s becoming obvious they’re not making a lot of sales lately (I don’t see a lot of people coming inside that store since it opened).

In any case, I’d like to get some feedback from readers — has anyone bought a Verzio device lately?

a singaporean branded phone like the one i bought could not conquer a good share of the market; poor after-sales-service; mahal ng parts nila; i nearly got into trouble of bringing a consumer complaint with DTI about it

Verzio is my first digicam two years ago. And it was like super garbage brand. I learned my lesson now, never trust unbranded gadgets otherwise sawi ang aabutin mo.

I have an hd dvcam bought about two years ago. Still solid. Although it’s funny I found exactly the same model except the label reads “cdrking” in cdrking hehe. I sent it back for repairs before the warranty expired nawala kasi ang sounds. But the gadget is still fine today :)
