Quick Review
The Torque Droidz Slate HD is priced at Php5,499 and offers good looks with some compromise. This phablet is okay for light gaming and multimedia consumption thanks to its large display. However, it has a terrible earpiece for calls, mediocre camera, weak loudspeaker, and poor battery life.
As per our daily usage, the Torque DROIDZ Octave is a decent performer that could easily handle casual tasks. It still runs on Android KitKat, however, so those who want a taste of the new Lollipop would still have to wait for an update.
The Intel Compute Stick is a great portable productivity PC as it is light, pocket-friendly, and easy to set up. There are limitations though like the limited USB port and internal storage. It’s good in certain scenarios though like turning your spare HDMI-equipped monitor into a fully functional PC, or attach it to your hotel room’s TV and use it as a PC as well. And one of the best part is it only costs Php7,999 so it’s not going to burn holes in your pockets.
As a daily phone, we would say the Multiphone 5508 Duo is a reliable device that can handle both gaming and productivity on-the-go. Battery life isn’t that spectacular, but still pretty decent as we have seen handsets in this range that are more of an under-performer than this.
The O+ 360 Alpha Plus is a feature-packed smartphone at an affordable price. The company’s 360 Touch technology and the decent front-mounted camera with LED flash offer more value to consumers who are looking for a dual-SIM smartphone with limited budget.
The Encore 3G was able to surpass its predecessor with a better camera, improved display, higher RAM and let’s not forget the additional 3G connectivity. With an asking price of Php4,799, it’s not bad as a secondary tablet if you’re in a really tight budget but if you’re after good cellular features, you’re better off getting a smartphone instead.
