ما هو هاتفك، وكم دفعت مقابل شرائه؟

قال لي شخص ما ذات مرة أنه لتحديد ما إذا كان الشخص مشتريًا محتملًا للهاتف iPhone 3G، يجب عليك التحقق من الهاتف الذي يستخدمه حاليًا وكم دفعته. بهذه الطريقة، ستحصل على فكرة عما إذا كانوا ميالين لشراء هواتف من فئة عالية. ومع أنني أعرف أن ذلك منطقي، إلا أنني أرغب في اختبار هذه النظرية هنا.

قبل عصر Apple و iPhone، كانت هناك عدة هواتف فاخرة كانت بنفس سعرها أو أغلى منها. دعونا نلقي نظرة على بعضها:

Nokia 8800 - 48,000 بيزو فلبيني
Palm Treo 750 - 37,000 بيزو فلبيني
Nokia N95 - 35,000 بيزو فلبيني
HTC Touch Dual - 36,000 بيزو فلبيني
Nokia E90 - 45,000 بيزو فلبيني

كم كان سعر هاتف نوكيا N73 عند إطلاقه لأول مرة؟ وماذا عن سلسلة HP iPaq؟ إذا كان أي منكم يتذكر كم كانت أسعار الهواتف الأخرى عند إطلاقها، يرجى ترك تعليق.

أو ماذا عن الأحدث التي أُطلقت هذا العام؟

HTC Touch Diamond - 41,000 بيزو فلبيني
Samsung Omnia i900 - 34,000 بيزو فلبيني
Sony-Ericsson Xperia X1 - سيتم الإعلان لاحقًا (حوالي 1,500 دولار أمريكي)

دعني أعود إلى سؤالي: ما هو هاتفك الآن، وكم دفعت مقابلَه؟ هاتفي الحالي نوكيا E71 بسعر 22 ألفًا. الأغلى ثمناً الذي اشتريته على الإطلاق كان Samsung بلاكجيك بسعر 24 ألفًا. أعتقد أن عتبة إنفاقِي لا تتجاوز 25 ألفًا.

samsung sgh-e250 for 3T 2nd hand from my brother…thanks kuya

fcch · 18 years ago

A black N82 for 18,500 and I waited for a year for the price to go down that level. Previous was a 6630 phone that I had bought for around 30k, the market price of which plummeted to 26k three weeks after my purchase. Learned my lesson.

anapb · 18 years ago

blackberry for P1,200. yup. its just 1,200.

JAKE · 18 years ago

N6300 w/ 512gb microSD at Php7,800. bought it last june.

jose · 18 years ago

So far i’m still using a razr; and now its my third.
Why? Its because its mike-speaker length is approximately the same as the mouth-ear distance, so its audibly better even in crowded places.
BTW, bought the first when its price got 14K.

SEP990i – 13k

I’m planning to buy another phone, maybe a Nokia 2600, will use for texting coz my phone’s keypad is possessed and won’t work. I’m currently stuck on using damn qwerty keypads which is too small for my fingers.

GensanBoy · 18 years ago

3 phones in a row.

1. SE P1i the most expensive that I bought so far. It cost me 27k when it 1st came out late last year. Traded it with a P900i when I gave it to my wife coz she didnt like it.

2. A month after, Globe gave me a Dopod 838 Pro for free, 3 years corporate contract with the company I work with. Currently my only phone.

3. A few weeks after the Dopod, I bought the first gen Iphone for 25k already opened and unlocked. Sold it for 15k after six months.

Currently waiting for the SE X1.

Nokia 3110 Classic for Php 5,300.

Lexy · 18 years ago

n80i bought it last year for 21k
i recently bought another cellphone
HTC KYnII aka at&t TILT for $350 only
i saw it yesterday at Trinoma and they sell it for 44K wow! huge difference! and they don’t have the model for it..they only use a plastic replica..
dunno why..no regrets for choosing this over the iphone :)

Just bought a Palm Centro since I’m feeling slightly overwhelmed with my to-do list and calendar. Takes a bit of time to get used to a QWERTY but rubberized keys feel nice. Got it at Mobile 1 for 17.4k with 12 months to pay.

Sir Alexander · 18 years ago

I still have my SE P1i which i bought for 24K. It’s worth the price because I like the features and it really fits my lifestyle.

After SE P1i, i got hold of N95 for a price of 26K.

No plans of buying a new handset now. Maybe an iPhone will come next.

E71. I guess based on the history of the phones that I owned my threshold is in the P20K mark. I got my E71 for about 15K after trading in my E61. I have to say this phone has a great bang for the buck ratio. Yes it doesnt have the spiffy pda features of a windows mobile enabled device. And it doesnt have that amazing graphics and interface that the iphone has. But it works excellently as a phone, surfing is great with the opera browser, gps is quite entertaining, camera is adequate, and 3rd party app support is extensive. All that for the fraction of what an iphone or a windows mobile smartphone costs.

Vicoi · 18 years ago

Its an E71, bought it last weekend and was influenced by your review, hehe. Got it for P20K from a store at 4th SM Megamall… I’m still exploring the phone, but so far so good! AND, I got turned off by Globe’s exorbitant pricing of the iPhone, just because they have exclusivity. :-(

Sony Ericsson P800 – 30 thousand, greenhills
Sony Ericsson P900 – 44 thousand, greenhills
Sony Ericsson P910i- 40 thousand, greenhills
Sony Ericsson P990i -13 thousand, ATC

A Motorola Razr V3 and a V3x. The V3 cost around 13,000, i think, while the V3x I got “free” with a line subscription to smart.

IP Lawyer · 18 years ago

the last phone i bought was a N95 8gig. it wasn’t for me but for my gf. cost around 28t at the time. won’t consider spending that much if were for me.

currently use an e90 and a samsung duo but both of them were gifts from my clients. be getting an iphone 3g but it’ll be a gift as well. i doubt i’d get one if i had to spend for it.

basically, the most expnsive phone i bought for myself was a 9300 communicator back in 2006. spent around 18k for it.

pink · 18 years ago

n73 bought Novermber 2006 @ 23K

Lyle, RN · 18 years ago

My last two phones were:

1. W850i – 16K (2007)
2. W810i – 15K (2006)

My present phone is an iPhone at 24K and no, it’s not just a fancy phone with a lovely touchscreen. I know, I use it on a daily basis. :)

ryan · 18 years ago

I have an ipaq512 – bought it online for 7k

I used to have alcatel two liner before I shifted to ipaq hehehehe the alcatel thing was buy1 take 1 brand new with 1 year warranty. Still works mighty fine after I literally threw it during a fight.

Before that…nokia 5110…

Come to think of it, I only had three phones in my life.

Galwin · 18 years ago

I agree with Lucien, I’d get the Samsung Omnia instead if I have the money.

I’m using my Nokia 6680 for three years now, I got it for 18k and it still serves it’s purpose well ’til now.

lazeeboy · 18 years ago

needed a phone/music player, so i bought a SonyEricsson W660i last week for only Php7,500. not into high-end phones anymore. just being practical now.

Roxanne · 18 years ago

I have an iPhone 3G 16GB. I live in USA so I got it cheaper. It costed $299.

Lucien Dominick G. Tiojanco · 18 years ago

I’d get the Samsung OMNIA for it’s current price if I hadn’t yet bought my Samsung i780 for PhP 23,500. :-)

My phone’s worth it, by the way. Registered at Handago and got a couple of enhancements. I don’t need the MP3 stuff though cause I have a seperate PMP for that purpose.

Brownspank · 18 years ago

Got an SE P990i for ~13K last year. Planning to replace it with the Xperia.

The iPhone’s nice and all, but I wouldn’t consider it a productivity tool (which most other high-end phones are). It’s just friggin’ hard to type on a touch screen! (I’ve tried it with an iPod Touch, I’m guessing the experience is the same with the iPhone.)

Linux · 18 years ago

My phone is Nokia e61i. I bought it for 20k at greenhills last June 2007.

Now, my boss gave me a HTC Dual. I am very happy… hehehehe

Aldrin Cantos · 18 years ago

My current phone is N6120 Classic free @ plan.
Most expensive by is 17K for SE T630 wayback 2004.

frozenpyro · 18 years ago

i think my limit would have to be 25k, that’s it.

Won’t buy a fon that cost more than that.

Current phone: HTC TyTn 1

noskid21 · 18 years ago

I just got my Samsung Omnia for 40k at Festival Mall Alabang. And It’s GREAT!!!

Jam · 18 years ago

I just got a Sony Ericsson k530i for Php 6,000 from an online auction. I’m satisfied with it.

noemi · 18 years ago

My latest is Nokia e51 purchased Nov 2007 at around 14thousand pesos

Around 2006, it was an N70 which was priced at around 25 thousand.

I reserved an iphone 3g at Globe but I am purchasing it at less than 20K due to Loyalty rewards.

My maximum purchase is around 25 thousand but I once bought a phone for 30 thousand in 2004 at deferred plan from Globe.

v3x- 12k (Thank you mom)2 years ago

Bob Reyes · 18 years ago

Still using my Palm Treo 600, got it at around PHP36,000 four years ago. Thinking of getting a Palm Centro or (switching) a Motorola Q8/Q9.

jhay · 18 years ago

I got the SE K800i in April last year for almost 18K. My most expensive phone to date and I think it would another 2 years before I buy a new one.

jun · 18 years ago

5110 =) then a second hand ericsson t210…

now nokia 2600… between 3-4k.

Unless somebody gives me an iPhone or I win it or somebody sells it for a ridiculously low price…

MiGs · 18 years ago

1. Nokia 6233 – old phone (bought it for 17k 2 years ago) now sells for 8k

2. Nokia n82 (black) – bought it for 20,300. 18k++ pag cash.

3. Duplii – P12,500.

Bought all my phones using credit card.. staggered payments… hende mashadong mahirap mag monthly.. =>

I don’t buy a phone that’s more than 20k.. for me expensive na yun. except yung n82. 300 lang naman ang excess.. =p

Next phone… wala pa.. UMPC muna.. =p

mocs · 18 years ago

n95 6K

JC John SESE-Cuneta · 18 years ago

Motoroal ROKR E1
– almost 10k only
– direct from Motorola
– pioneer price (after the local networks carried the model, price went up as high as PhP24k)

Erin · 18 years ago

SE K618i – bought last year (december?) for 12K.

i am actually looking for a phone with no camera but has 3G and can be easily used as a bluetooth modem. if it can play music then it should do A2DP and i need to find a bluetooth headset that understands A2DP as well but does not burn a hole in my wallet.

and Sony Ericsson Xperia 1 is still in my radar, just for the novelty of using its acronyms whenever somebody asks what phone model am i using. /lol

ciao!

BrianB · 18 years ago

Just bough a Samsung E590 for 5,700 php (on sale). Perfect phone without 3G but battery sucks.

jomar · 18 years ago

Nokia 5610 xpressmusic for 12-13k. I forgot the exact price :P

Gustokonyan · 18 years ago

Nokia N82 for 21.5k. The Best Phone Ever.

Iphone is just some fancy phone with very lovely multi touch screen. But its never as functional as nokia phones, believe me.

LiNTEK · 18 years ago

Nokia 5110, it was a gift from my *wink* I think a decade ago.

LOL!

Dred · 18 years ago

Nokia E90 – paid Php 44k when I got it last November. Stocks then were so limited that some of the store owners over at Greenhills sell it at Php 50k+.
