Expect ko na around 10k starting price neto kasi kung 8.7k lang sayang ung max m1 na nirelease nila. Tas 4gb/64gb naman na config is around same price ng redmi note 5.

Magiging available pa kayo ‘to hanggang july mga boss?
Lapit ng sumurender zf2 ko.
Tagal kong hinintay ung note5 -pero nakakaasar kasi parang pinutol putol ng xiaomi ung specs- ung typec nasa s2, tapos walang sdcard at headphone jack ung 6x, tapos parang note4x ung likod ng note5!
Nakita ko zf5- di ko trip eh (saka mahal na for me).. kung naka typec sana tong maxprom1. Hihitayin ko to kahit july pa! Nakita ko ung honor9lite- maganda design pero liit ng screen saka di pang gaming.. oh well hintay hintay lang ulit.

Galing mo boss, naresearch lahat. Yan naman kamo the best sa midrange chalenging ang pagpili.
