Pra sa mga hindi mkaka afford nang presyo sympre very expensive sa knila yon, pero ang importante nman tlaga d2 mapa mahal o mura yong cp mo may pakinabang at nagagamit sa pang araw-araw. So excited to get my s6 edge..

Sa akin, best Samsung smartphone ito in all phones coming in the market this year.

Heavy user ako ng smartphone, so I use 2-3 batteries a day. nasayang nga lang yung S5 ko, kasi bumagsak ng screen faced down. Di nabasag yung glass sa impact, pero affected ang lcd. sayang yung pagpapaayos, kasi di naman covered ng warranty.

So bumili na lng ako ng A5. akala ko madi-disapoint ako sa mid range specs, pero kaya nya ang heavy use. Ok lang ang camera not like on the S5 na gusto ko. Fluid and mabilis ang pag open ng apps at hindi “laggy”. Pagdating sa battery akala ko talo na ko. kasi non-removable na at 2300 mah lng. It proved me wrong. Kaya nya ng 2 full lenght movies in 1 fully charged battery. And it last the whole day of moderate use. Mabilis din talaga ang charging, more or less than 1 hour you get to fully charge your phone, depending on the left battery charge, and kung ginagamit mo while charging.

I have tried most phones, pero as of now, sa Samsung ako naging comfortable, since I purchased tab 4, talagang lumipat na ko.

kaya sigurado akong super beast mode yang S6.

Syempre magaantay rin ako ng hands on reviews from tech blogs bago ako bumili. Para talagang malaman mo kung worthy ang price for what you’re getting. Di ka dapat basta basta bumibili dahil bago at uso sya. You can’t be a tech savvy person without doing your research.

This is just my opinion.
peace

antayin nyo na lng lumabas sa greenhills yan madami magbebenta dun ng mas mura. oh kaya upgrade nyo I’m sure ung mga samsung store magkaakron ng promo for upgrade their old galaxy phones.

sana nman lumabas agad ung S6 Active kc mas ok water & dust proof tpos bka removable battery & with SD card?!

kenobi · 11 years ago

bat d kau mag windows? just asking =)

shutter · 11 years ago

Bibili ako neto. Parang hybrid to eh. Meron ka nang Z3 meron ka pang iphone6.

abuzalzal · 11 years ago

The real star this summer will be the 1080p Zenfone 2

Hindi na uubra ang ganyang presyuhan sa 3rd world market kase yung mga sosyalera at pasikat ang gusto iPhone.

Carlo · 11 years ago

I doubt Samsung gives a shit if no one here bus their flagships. The bulk of the flagships sold in the millions are in first world countries anyway.

abuzalzal · 11 years ago

Their loyal fanbase is dwindling. Of course they give a shit, mass-lay off na nga nangyayari

Hindi rin sila makapag penetrate sa Low-midrange crowd dahil na kontrol na ng ASUS at Xiaomi at sandamakmak na Generic OEMs tulad ng Micromax

Sa high-end andyan ang Apple, Sony, HTC at LG….wala na silang lulugaran…pag nilabas ang LG G4, SAPAW na naman sila dahil sigurado i undercut ng LG yung pricing gaya ng G3

Kurimaw · 11 years ago

@abuzalzal

Kung tama ang pagkakamarket at magiging malawak ang availability ng Asus Zenfone 2, then yes mukhang magiging star yan ng summer. Good price to spec ratio.

As for high end devices, tama ka na sana kung hanggang iPhone lang ang naenumerate mo. But then you added Sony and HTC who are struggling in the mobile business tapos sasabihin mong walang paglalagyan ang Samsung sa high-end? LOL. The profits may have went down for Samsung but they are still the biggest and one of the most profitable Android phone maker out there especially with their flagship devices. Walang-wala ang Sony at HTC in terms of sales and profitability kahit i-specify mo pa yan sa high-end phones.

poncho · 11 years ago

Sa sobrang mahal ng mga gadgets ngayon, s mura n lng ako, parehong specs lng dn nmn, advance lng tong si samsung, kung s camera nmn, bibili n lng ako ng digital camera. Wuahahahahah.
@carlotron9000, malki point m. Sang ayon ako s mga nbanggit m.
@pogi, ako rin. Mkacomment lng. Dulo rin ako.

archie · 11 years ago

Dumadating na kasi sa point na walang inooffer na bago ang android at apple kaya hyped up market na lang ang ginagawa. Pati battery technology hindi na umusad for the past 3 years. Kung ang kailangan naman sa phone ay basic functions lang at hindi magpapogi sa starbucks, meron namang tulad ng kimstore na may drop price para sa mga not so old gadgets. Hindi naman siguro big deal kahit 1 year old na ang model na gamit ng tao kung text at camera lang talaga ang gustong gamitin.

pogi · 11 years ago

andirito lang ako para magbasa ng comment.. nasa dulo na kasi ako ng comment kaya dinagdagan ko nalang.. lol

pogi · 11 years ago

andirito lang ako para magbasa ng comment.. nasa huli na kasi ako ng comment kaya dinagdagan ko nalang.. lol

ako ito · 11 years ago

Ako kong mag upgrade lang ako nang cp…doon nalang ako sa A7 or sa E7… At least samsung…kasi ang cp ko ngaun ay CM lang na flare s…very problimatic and daling ma low batt. Wala naman akong mga apps na di na download. Well kung mananalo nang lotto well…kahit yong apple na 24k gold plated…hehe…just saying. ;)

miku · 11 years ago

D naman siguro ginawa ng samsung iyan at ang nasa isip lang nila ay bentahan lang ang mga pilipino.mas maraming bansa ang maluwag sa kanila ang maglabas ng ganyang halaga para lang sa cp. And kung ppresyuhan lang ng samsung iyan ng 25k pesos or below.. makakaexpect pa ba tayo ng developments sa technologies in the future?..opinion ko lang din..hehe

carlotron9000 · 11 years ago

^
I know, but im not saying na gawing nilang 25k ito, sabi ko lang nakakapanghinayang kung gagastos ka ng higit doon para lang sa isang phone na Im quite sure na di naman fully mauutilize ng isang common Filipino. Pero kung gusto talaga nila eh di sige, opinion ko lang ulit na inulit haha :)

Rodel · 11 years ago

Sana ginawa ding dual sim ung edge :(

archie · 11 years ago

Siguradong maglalabas sila niyan. S6 Active, S6 Dual, S6 LTE. Pera-pera lang talaga yan kaya kung technophiliac fanboy ka at tatanga tanga ka sa marketing magics, talagang masasaid ang savings ng tao.

Mikooy · 11 years ago

Price is okay and is comparable to Apple which is of course their main competitor. The problem is that most probably the LG G4 will undercut them in terms of pricing.

wonka · 11 years ago

@carlotron9000
if you are looking for something for productivity lang, choice mo na yun. Di lahat ng tao yan ang habol. Phones can be utilized for entertainment as well, if not eh bakit andaming video player app both for IOS and android, ano justification nun? bakit andaming game app? so dont tell me phones are only used for productivity stuff. so dont judge us if we want to have a high res screen just to play COC and watch vids in youtube. That’s our choice. We got money to burn for it eh.

and regarding selfie: we adore ourselves. We are obsess with our looks. We are a new generation. personality alone does not sell. deal with it.

carlotron9000 · 11 years ago

hahahaha may tinamaan ba akong ugat sa sinabi ko? :D

archie · 11 years ago

@carlotron

Congrats, may tinamaang samsung fanboy sa comments mo. Asahan mong dadami din yan tulad ng epol fanbuyz.

wona · 11 years ago

@carlotron9000
why dont you tell that to millions of people playing games with their phone? tinamaang ugat? wooshoo. wala kang pang depensa no?

that is because its the truth. If you keep on blabbing about productivity alone, then researc and development labs for mobile handsets wont try to improve camera sensors, phone screen graphic processor for games and screen resolution for better viewing.

only shows, mahirap ka dahil wala kang pambili ng gadgets which can function best for your productivity while we enjoy devices that can deliver entertainment.

btw, i use an iphone6 plus. oh god, i love drawing the line between alta poorita. hahahaha

carlotron9000 · 11 years ago

Awww ang cute naman, feeling mayaman na kasi naka iphone. Oo na nabara mo ako sa ganda ng logic mo, oh no! hahaha :D

dontworry · 11 years ago

guys, relax. we kuripot filipinos dont buy phones on DAY 1 of availability. ofcourse mahal talaga yan! we wait for….. PRICEDROPS… diba?
and where do we get them best? eh di sa KIMSTORE or sa ebay.ph or widgetcity.

chill lang. abangers muna.

carlotron9000 · 11 years ago

ang mahal naman! kinakabahan na tuloy ako sa HTC One M9, ineexpect ko na nasa halagang 27k lang un eh based sa US price nun. Hopefully wag ganto kamahal, di naman ata majujustify ng kahit sinu ang gumastos ng 35k+ para lang sa isang phone ni anu pa ang specs nito

archie · 11 years ago

“di naman ata majujustify ng kahit sinu ang gumastos ng 35k+ para lang sa isang phone ni anu pa ang specs nito”

Matagal nang may nagjujustify ng price above 35k+, ang tawag sa kanila ay epol fanbuyz. In fairness to Samsung, mas may karapatan naman silang magpresyo ng ganyan dahil latest technology ang gamit nila mula display hanggang chipset except sa battery na napakaliit.

carlotron9000 · 11 years ago

@archie

Naku wala rin pinagkaiba kung apple fan ka or android fan, kung gumastos ka ng 35k+ para sa isang phone sayang lang din pera mo tapos anu, ipapang COC lang o kaya selfie. hahaha.

May paniniwala ako eh, lahat ng phone na nasa 25k pataas eh di na mararamdaman ng regular na pilipino ung pinagkaiba.

tmcr7 · 11 years ago

Maraming bagong technology sa S6. 10 min charging, wireless charging, pati yung malupit na camera. Isama mo na yung curved screen.

carlotron9000 · 11 years ago

@tmcr7

other than the 10 min charging, i dont see any more feature na majujustify ung price tag nya, im not just talking about this phone, but any phone worth 35k+, kahit anu pang feature yan, kung di rin naman makakatulong sa trabaho mo o productivity mo, at lalong lalo na kung kaya naman gawin ng mas murang phone na slightly mas mabagal nga lang at slightly di kagandahan ang picture tapos mas mura masasabi kong sayang lang sa pera. Pero if someone really want to have it, who am I to judge. Opinion ko lang naman un hehe. :)

skabuts · 11 years ago

grabehan sa mahal yan, once lang ako bibili ng tig 30k na telepono at di na mauulit pa yun, haha. may sungsungsheep na din ngayon ah, haha.

LOL · 11 years ago

very expensive for an Android device.

Pops Regular · 11 years ago

Worth it naman. Kasi maganda din yung spechs saka doon sa double edged screen nya

fffff · 11 years ago

May hardware error agad.

UPDATE: This video proves the theory of Samsung deliberately disabling touch sensitivity on the screen edges to prevent accidental swipes and touches. Thanks for the tip, Kaloyan!
