#Neo 7

OPPO has announced that its Neo7 smartphone with its 5-inch display and mirror-like surface is now more affordable at sub-Php6K. The Oppo Neo 7 sports a 5-inch qHD display at 220ppi and is powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 410 plus Adreno 306 GPU, paired with 1GB of RAM. Neo Philippines held a Christmas party for members of the media the other day and also introduced several new laptops including this 11.6-inch dual-core Neo Basic B3510. Neo's line-up of Core i3 and Core i5 laptops include this 14.1-inch Neo Basic 4103N. The Neo Basic line of laptops were introduced to basically shake up the lower end of the price spectrum for Core i3 laptops. It's a price positioning that could attract a lot of people looking into a budget Core i3 laptop (and they did the same with the Core i5 powered Neo Basic B4105). During a round-table discussion yesterday with Neo executives and Intel representatives, I asked why it took a while for the local laptop manufacturer to bring out their big guns. Neo Basic B4103 Intel Core i3 330M (2.13 GHz), supports Hyper-Threading 14.1" display screen @ 1366x768 pixels 2GB DDR3 RAM Integrated Intel HD 320GB HDD DVD+RW Supermulti Optical Drive 6-cell Li-Ion @ 4400mAh It's pretty basic really, but the highlight here is the Core i3 processor running at 2.13GHz with 2 cores and 4 threads.
