    I got oneplus 3 in widget city last august 20. Wow! Ang ganda ng fone na to. Camera is great at may 4k video din. Fast fingerprint recognition. Number one pa sa antutu benchmark, mine was 143k score when i tested it. Haha meron din naman bumibili sa asus z3 sa widget city pero bet ko oneplus.. kung magtatanong kayo kung sa located ang physical store ng widget city, located po siya sa ground floor ng Victoria de Manila condo tower in front of Philippine Christian University, near LRT Pedro Gil station. Kaya lang 3 day replacement lang and one year service warranty. Pero ok lang, ingat na lang sa pag gamit.

    One plus 3, sakin di naman prob ang bilihan dahil mron na kong trusted reseller. Yung dash charge tlga yung panalo dito e 30mins 60% agad. Ska very optimized ang oxygen os almost nexus sya at minimal lang ang bloatware. Asus kilala sa dami ng bloatware yan.

      How about the camera? For just a 100$ difference, I’ll go with the Zen 3. Or else I’ll stick with a slightly less powerful (but still very capable Adreno 510 GPU) Redmi Note 3 Snap 650 for less than half the price of Zen 3.

    Zenfone 3 all the way. The microSD expandable said it.

    Goodluck pag naubos mo na yung 64gb na walang expandable storage ng one plus 3.

      O nga, it may be a deal breaker for power users.

      Pero rak na yan for casual users like me na hindi pa mapuno ang 32gb. :D
