HP Folio 13 now official
by Kyle on November 17, 2011
The leaked HP Folio 13 was indeed true and it was announced officially by HP the day after it was published in the interwebs. The specs even match and without a doubt legit, but anyway I’m not that surprise and given the matchups of ultrabooks right now, I could say that the HP Folio 13 was indeed a good addition to the current lineup of ultrabooks right now.
ASUS U32U another bang for the buck netbook
by Kyle on November 17, 2011
The HP Folio and the upcoming releases of ultrabooks like the UX21 is just one sign that netbooks will ultimately be replaced in the future when SSDS come cheap. So before that happens netbook prices with ultimately good spec sheets will definitely pop out. One good example is this ASUS U32U netbook powered by AMD-E450 much like the Dell M102z priced around 20,000 Php (Straight conversion of 450$).
HP Folio is the new Ultrabook
by Kyle on November 15, 2011
Update 11/18/2011: HP Folio 13 is now officially released
Not official yet but it appears that this will most likely to happen unless they change their naming for their upcoming ultrabook according to the The Verge. Nevertheless this will definitely be exciting as Asus UX21 and of course the very popular macbook air is just around the corner.
Blackberry Bold 9790 and Curve 9380 unveiled by RIM
by Kyle on November 15, 2011
It comes unexpected again, RIM followed another batch of phones that will be released in another week and it seems that the Blackberry curve 9380 will be launched at the same time here in the Philippines. Good news for fellow Blackberry supporters looking for something new to the curve lineup, this time they made it in full touchscreen and now I wonder why the trackpad is still there and I can’t find any use of that.
Blackberry London leaked picture revealed
by Kyle on November 14, 2011
RIM’s attempt to reclaim it’s lost spot in smartphone market has been hard for the Canadian company. So far the units they release are very similar with little improvement on the OS side and users who’s been used to their berries are changing ship since the trend of user productivity is shifting more to user enjoyment or should I say entertainment. This is where blackberries fail and despite their touch based devices being released they never met their expectations in reality.
Limbo on MAC now coming
by Kyle on November 13, 2011
The game’s a hit on PC which amounts to a million sales and it’s now coming to MAC. No definite date yet on when it will be released so you have to tune in to technokyle for the updates if you want LIMBO running on your MAC devices. The gameplay of LIMBO is really solid and requires lots of thinking.
Blackberry Bold 9900 will be available in Smart
by Kyle on November 13, 2011
Globe’s the very first telco to support and provide blackberry service in the Philippines and today Smart surprisingly snagged some Blackberry 9900 units available to some of their plans. Despite the decreasing market share, RIM managed to pull of to make a couple of market share in third world countries and in a short while they’ve been releasing their new units really fast.
HTC Sensation XL Launched and Priced
by Kyle on November 12, 2011
If you use your smartphone more into music as most Filipinos do and load them up with music then HTC Sensation XL is something that you should consider. It’s loaded with BEATS audio and for sure it will definitely be a better music experience when listening music in your smartphone. I bet HTC Sensation XL won’t disappoint, they’ve been launching similar smartphones loaded with BEATS audio and so far they’re good feedbacks.
Battery problems on iOS 5.0.1 update
by Kyle on November 12, 2011
If you’re still in doubt that you’ve updated your iDevice to 5.0.1 yet you still experience horrific battery problem then you’re not alone since the previous update of iOS 5.0.1 didn’t solve the battery issues for some idevice owners. Apple is planning to roll out another 5.0.2 update in the coming weeks. For some it have worked but others complain that the situation of their batteries draining have worsen.
Please have a unli social for Globe!
by Kyle on November 9, 2011
Let’s face it, One of the reasons why Blackberry is still hot is because of Blackberry Social. I asked my friends why they use blackberry and almost all of them responded “Blackberry Social”. It’s amazing how globe pulled this off, from a dying Company they made a comeback by putting up Blackberry Social.
Nokia N9 finally launched and priced
by Kyle on November 9, 2011
It’s more than a month before I released my first Nokia N9 post and it seems that I lost track to the news. Good thing that the N9 will be available in the Philippines since other regions won’t be seeing the N9 on their telcos. The pricing of the N9 is something to consider about since it’s classified as a premium phone which is heavy on the budget for the average user.
Get the 79$ Kindle in the Philippines
by Kyle on November 7, 2011
Honestly I’m surprised about the 79$ Kindle when I saw one selling online. It’s not because I didn’t know that it exist it’s just that I know a lot of stores overprice the device which it goes way up to to 15K in Php. So it’s really a good thing to blog when I saw one in tipidpc selling for Php4890 and is sealed and Brand New.

HTC Edge rumored to be the first quadcore smartphone
by Kyle on November 7, 2011
HTC’s idea of giving a shot to a quad core smartphone maybe too much but that leads to a totally new dimension of computing since it will be pushing mobile OSes to the limit. If two cores seems to slow then put another two cores to give it a steroid and let it run like crazy. They say the rumored phone is HTC Edge and will run in 1.5ghz processor with all the goodies like beats audio, 1gb of RAM and 8mp camera capable of 720p HD playback.
Blackberry Curve 9360 at Php16990
by Kyle on November 5, 2011
Despite RIM’s continous decline of US Market Share their still capable to release new units from their previews lineups of Bold and Curve series. For example this Blackberry Curve 9360 is out now at 16,990. I’ve been a blackberry user and I have to say that the pricing is ridiculous. The only significant upgrade that I can see from the Blackberry 9360 is the thin form factor and the OS7 (Which I don’t know yet if the OS upgrade is good).
MSI Windpad Enjoy 7 now in the Philipines
by Kyle on November 5, 2011
MSI’s continuous release of affordable tablets are sure deal for techy filipinos looking for something to buy for the upcoming holidays. MSI Windpad Enjoy 7 will be available in local retail stores for a few days now for a price tag of 11,995. It’s really affordable compared to other brands that runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Could be something that will turn you off if you’re expecting Android 3.0 on the device but that won’t be a showstopper if running Android apps is your concern.
