If you have an opportunity to buy abroad, better. I believe Apple’s warranty is international so you don’t have to worry about repairs here in the Phils.

please buy these products here sa Pinas. if manufacturers see na malakas ang benta locally ng mga products, they’ll release them earlier here next time and no need to make pabilin abroad.

Hindi niyo kasi finactor in ang purchasing power (PPP). Syempre mukhang mahal/mura yan kapag kinonvert directly yung currencies. Pero dapat intindihin na magkaiba ang cost of living sa mga bansang yan.

Para sa isang 3rd world country kagaya ng Pilipinas, sobrang mahal na talaga nyan para sa telepono. Tsaka parang mas mura pa nga sa Hungary, Romania, Turkey e, mas mataas ang value ng euro kesa sa US dollar.

Based on yugatech’s source, the website actually says the Philippines priced the iPhone 5S the 4th most expensive in the world based on GDP per capita. Ooooopssss! Who’s fooling who?
