Christmas is just around the corner and for sure many are already looking at tech Christmas gifts for other people or as a personal upgrade. November, like the rest of the months, was also an exciting time for reviews. We had the Xiaomi 11T, Secretlab TITAN Evo 2022 Series Monster Hunter Edition, POCO M4 Pro 5G, HP Victus 16, and the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, to name a few. Here’s our Gadget Reviews Roundup for November 2021.

OPPO A55 4G

At PHP 9,999USD 170INR 14,445EUR 162CNY 1,241, this might be a confusing choice considering that its predecessor, the A54 4G, offers bigger memory. Although, that one uses a P35 chipset, which is less tuned to gaming. But if you’re an OPPO fan who wants an affordable daily driver that can provide nice selfies, long battery life, and entry-level gaming performance, this can be an option.

Secretlab TITAN Evo 2022 Series Monster Hunter Edition

Overall, the Secretlab TITAN Evo 2022 Series Monster Hunter Edition is a beautiful chair. It’s a gaming chair, yes, but it’s also an excellent chair for work, given the level of comfort it provides. If you’re a gamer and a Monster Hunter fan, the design is a bonus. But even if you’re not, you’re still going to love it.

realme narzo 50A

Alright, so let’s talk about the price. The realme narzo 50A is available for PHP 7,990USD 136INR 11,542EUR 130CNY 992. With a few extra bucks, comparing it to its cheaper, turned down sibling, the 30A, we think that the narzo 50A is a better deal considering that you’ll get a larger 6,000mAh battery, a much decent processor, and a much more versatile camera.

Infinix HOT 11S

The Infinix HOT 11S is available in two configurations: the 4GB + 64GB is available for PHP 6,990USD 119INR 10,098EUR 113CNY 867, while the 6GB +128GB is priced at PHP 7,990USD 136INR 11,542EUR 130CNY 992. For its price, I can say that it’s worth your money, but for the extra PHP 1,000USD 17INR 1,445EUR 16CNY 124, you’ll get more with the 6GB+128GB variant. If you are to buy this phone, make sure to manage your expectations.

POCO M4 Pro 5G

The POCO M4 Pro 5G is priced at PHP 11,990USD 204INR 17,321EUR 195CNY 1,488 for the 4GB + 64GB variant, and PHP 12,990USD 221INR 18,765EUR 211CNY 1,612 for the 6GB + 128GB model. It has some features that flagship phones have, like a display with a higher-than-average refresh rate, high-res main camera, 5G connectivity, and a battery that will last you an entire day.

realme 8i

The realme 8i comes in two configurations: this 4GB + 64GB variant is priced at PHP 9,990USD 170INR 14,432EUR 162CNY 1,240, while the 6GB + 128GB variant is available for PHP 11,990USD 204INR 17,321EUR 195CNY 1,488. On its own, we can say that it’s a pretty impressive device as it can be relied upon for day-to-day casual use and even some slight gaming—plus the 120Hz refresh rate sure is icing on the cake.

HP Victus 16 w/ Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3050

It’s more than enough if used for productivity purposes or casual entertainment, but in gaming, you’ll have to lower some of the graphics presets to get better frame rates. If you’re not a heavy gamer, this laptop will serve you well.

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds

The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds are a wonderful pair of earbuds. It definitely is a premium product at a premium price point. The build quality is amazing as well as the comfort of the earbuds.

OPPO A95 4G

The OPPO A95 4G is priced at PHP 15,999USD 273INR 23,112EUR 260CNY 1,985. Is it a good enough device? In some ways, yes. It’s a good-looking phone, aesthetically, if you’re into that, it has an AMOLED display with brightness up to 800 nits and has good cameras.
