san p ako makakbili nito?

denise · 11 years ago

buti naman hindi sila nagkuripot sa battery capacity, unlike some other local rebrands na mura nga pero ilang oras lang ang gamit. :)

The “designed in San Francisco” label alone is enough to convince me that this is a legit game changing newcomer in the PH phone market. The second coming of Asus but more hip and elegant.

Will the 3gb variant be really sold at less than 10K?

If they are going to sell this through regular stores, i say shut up and take my money.

If thru flash sales, i might just get a Sony M4 Aqua or M5.

Eto pa lang ang nakita kong video ng actual device. Mukhang makapal pero 8mm lang ang thickness kasama na yung embossed display.

Oppo philippines magbalot-balot ka na. Sulitin mo na yung binayad mo kay sarah geronimo. Bugbugin mo na ang tv ads sa promotion habang kaya mo pa dahil dumadami na ang katulad ng asus.

Legitimately excited to see them enter the PH market. These guys were featured on GSMArena, Pocketnow, Engadget, etc. Good specs for a good price. So far wala pang legit competition yung Asus Zenfone 2.

Wow. Way to make an entrance. Nice specs

hnd sinabi kung LTE ung SJ1.5

archie · 11 years ago

LTE at dual sim sabi dito sa article. Pwede na kung nakaglobe tattoo ka at ayaw mo ng secondary phone para sa isa mo pang contact number.

Mali ako 3g lang pala yung sj1.5

archie · 11 years ago

Aba mura yung 3gb model ng sf1 para sa specs tapos sony sensor na yung camera. Patay na naman ang oppo niyan. Mas hihintayin ko na to kesa sa Xiaomi kung di magfaflash sale ang obi.
