Samsung Galaxy 5 & SE Xperia X10 Mini Sale

Listen to article

Just discovered yesterday that Samsung and Sony Ericsson are also doing their own mini-sale. Found out the Galaxy 5 is going for Php5,000 off and the Xperia X10 Mini at Php4,000 off.

Saw a couple of posters and standees in the malls which displays a one-day sale on the Samsung Galaxy 5 at Php7,990 (before: Php12,990).

According to the poster, it’s only for one-day on December 1 but it seems it has been extended for the rest of December or until units are still available. A reader commented that he was still able to purchase 2 units yesterday (the poster was modified to add “extended for 2010”).

The Sony-Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini which retails for Php17,990 is also down by Php4k and now at Php13,990. Not really a huge discount but if you’re into the Xperia line, this is a catch.

There’s no word on how long the sale would be or which stores they are doing the sale. My suggestion is to keep a look out in the malls. They have posters in the malls so just ask around.

Saw in the dailies that Cherry Mobile is doing its own 3 hours sale (10am to 1pm) this Saturday, Dec 11 at selected malls. This is for their 3.2 Nova (android 2.1) Selling at P7,990 (like Galaxy 5) from regular price of P11k+.

I almost bought this phone 2 to 3 months back. Luckily, I waited and got the galaxy 5 on sale. Though I’m sure a lot of better android phones would be on sale pretty soon. At least, prices go down really fast these days. Good for consumers but not for speculators.

Nakabili ako ng Samsung Galaxy 5 nung December 1, pero wala akong idea na naka sale pala, ang hinahanap ko talagang unit is Samsung Spica, pero lahat ng store walang stock, buti napadaan ako ng MemoXpress, swerte nga kasi nataon na naka sale yung Galaxy 5. hehehehe.. kasabay nuya yung x10 at HTC Smart pero mas pinakamaganda yung Galaxy 5.

So far satisfied ako sa Galaxy 5, maganda response nung touchscreen kasi capacitive siya.

went to samsung store at sm taytay earlier, saleslady said galaxy 5 sale price is 10,490.

I asked her to doublecheck (and even told her that online, it is being sold at 10400) but she clarified that’s already the ‘sale’ price.

If there’s one thing good na ginawa ng LG, pati na rin Nokia, nagsunuran ibang phone brands na babaan talaga yung presyo. Otherwise, small discounts lang ang inooffer ngaun. Pero sana magkapera ako ng makabili na rin ako…

Will the Galaxy 5 ever support multi-touch? I read somewhere that the Froyo upgrade would enable support of multi-touch.

Yup, I was able to buy 2 galaxy 5 phones at MOA last Thursday. Yesterday afternoon, I was at Rob Manila and there were still available units at Memo Xpress.

Previously Galaxy 5 was retailed for only P10,990 not 12k.

I’d still go for Huawei Ideos U8150… wait till they launched it.

What’ Nokia, Samsung and LG does is stir up news that they have cheaper phones now and make the current fans of Android phones to buy hastily, this is their marketing strategy, so when something new like the Huawei Ideos comes out with a cheaper price but rich features….Wham! you’ll be saying, uhhh i already bought a phone…what the?

Until supplies last lang siya, kasi kanina sabi 50 units lang yung binenta nila…may stocks sila just for the sale and stocks para sa original price..baka meron pa sa ibang branch…kasi kung kahapon nagstart eto…pinapaubos lang yung 50 units, they even extended yung sale ng HTC Smart and S.E Elm..

sir ren, available pa ba sa ibang branches? or available pa rin talaga yung promo up to the end of december?

I went to Moa kanina, sa Memo Express, pag dating ko doon around 8pm na…ubos na yung 50 units ng Samsung nila, may mga 5-6 people na nandoon kasalukuyan tinetest yung binili nila….then balik na sa original price.

I think wise yung strategy ng Samsung na hindi sabihin sa lahat ng bonggang bongga na magsasale sila…. 50 units isang buong araw, walang nagtulakan wala rin galit….

P12,990 for Galaxy 5? Are they even serious? Isn’t it some stores retail it for like P10,990? Overpriced.. LOL I was expecting it would be like 6k which is really a steal.. Sorry Samsung.. I’d still go for Huawei Ideos U8150..
