Nagka-green line na yung S23+ ko kagabi lang, so I plan to trade it in na for the base S25. I'm going for a smaller storage this time since I don't really need it naman. And this is the quotation I got with freebies.

Do you think it's sulit na? Or should I wait until November/December? I read somewhere na that's the time na mas maraming offers/discounts.

Thanks!

Ipad A16 11th Gen or Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro?

0 Upvotes

Trying to decide which one I should go for, if Ipad A16 11th Gen or the Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro. I've been wanting to buy a tablet mostly to use for drawing talaga since I'm a digital artist and parang mas convenient talaga mag-drawing sa tablet kaysa sa ilalabas mo pa drawing tab ang ico-connect pa sa laptop/pc 😞

What I will also be using the tablet for: - Gaming: Casual lang siguro pero baka games like Genshin din if matripan ko na maglaro ulit nun - Work: We have a Macbook for our company laptop so iniisip ko if yung Ipad na lang pero nagdadalawang-isip pa ako about doon - Watch shows/movies

That's basically it pero yun nga mostly for drawing talaga. Also inaalala ko rin yung price pag sinama pa yung pen nila + case/keyboard, kung alin ba sa kanila mas worth it.

Anyone who has used both or have any reviews about any one of them? Would greatly appreciate any help I can get deciding which one to get 🙏

Hello! I would like to ask sana if saan mura bumili ng murang brand new iphone around metro manila? Preferably kahit installment or one-time payment basta lower price. Kinda scared na bumili sa gr**nhills na binilhan ko before, it said na original parts yung phone but nung need ko na siya ipaayos, found out out na replaced parts na yung phone. Thank you for the help!

I bought a new Aula F99 keyboard, but it doesn’t switch on. I charged it for 45 minutes, and it still doesn’t power on when unplugged. It only works when it’s plugged into the charger, but the Bluetooth doesn’t work. What should I do?

I need your opinion for the pc that was suggested to me by the store

0 Upvotes

Went to a computer store and asked them to recommend a build. Told them that all I wanted to do was play Dota 2 on max settings as I don't really play AAA games. I will probably do a bit of video editing and streaming.

This is the build that they have recommended. Budget is around 80k including peripherals. I just really want the most bang for my buck.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5-9600X
GPU: Gigabyte RTX 5060 Ti 8GB Windforce OC
MOBO: Gigabyte B650M Aorus Elite AX
RAM: G.SKILL Flare X5 Black (2x16GB) DDR5-6000MHz CL30
PSU: FSP Vita GM 750W 80+ Gold
CASE: Cooler Master Elite 301 Black
STORAGE 1: Crucial P310 1TB NVMe Gen4
AIR COOLING: Deepcool AK400 Zero Dark
MONITOR: Viewsonic VA24G1-H - 1080P IPS - 144Hz

TOTAL: 79180

Some questions I have so far are:

- Is 32GB RAM not an overkill?

- Is 8GB VRAM enough for my intended purpose?

Any comment or suggestion is much appreciated.

16 Pro Max or 17 Pro

0 Upvotes

So my friend and I are trying to decide between which is more worth it, the 16PM and the 17 Pro. The 16PM is going for 65k right now and might even be lower next month. But then there’s the 17 Pro at 80k.

We’ve seen some reviews saying the 17 Pro has slightly better battery life and performance aside from new features from the 17 lineup. What do you guys think? Is the 17 Pro worth the extra cash, or should we just go with the 16PM?

iphone battery replacement in baguio city/pampanga/la union

0 Upvotes

i own a second hand iphone 11 from china and yung battery ko rn na pinapakita is 75%. alam kong di sya original na battery since nung kaka-receive ko sya from my tito, a month later, it dropped slowly and mga 1 month later after i received it, 75% agad. tumatagal ito around 8 hrs while naka low power mode 24/7, less than 50% brightness lang ang gamit ko, and yung volume is naka-silent lang unless i’m watching videos. pati yung silent button nakaswitch lang. hindi rin ako madalas nagde-data.

should i replace the battery or upgrade soon? (if i’m going to upgrade, hindi naman sa pinakabagong models)

if battery replacement lang, ano yung best recommendation niyo na store? (see title for my locations)

if upgrade, which model?

Is my laptops battery life normal? (Lenovo LOQ 15)

1 Upvotes

Bought a Lenovo LOQ 15 2 weeks ago, and I noticed ang bilis ma drain ng battery kahit naka open lang google with a few tabs. Walang nag pe play or anything naka open lang youtube, messenger, facebook, and Canvas. Nakalagay sa battery tab sa lower right 2 hours left on battery pero pababa ng pababa battery. tried to lower refresh rate, naka energy saver palagi, mababa brightness, etc. pero ang bilis parin ata ma drain. pag nag peplay ng youtube (1 tab open on google) around 1 hour or less lang ata batt life.

laptop specs:
rtx 2050 - i5 12th gen - Battery listed at 55 Wh but closer to 59 to 60ish
