It’s a smartphone and tablet roundup! Here’s what’s on tap locally and what’s coming.
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly phone with serious staying power, the HONOR X7e is worth a look. Its headline feature is a huge 7,500mAh battery with 45W fast charging, so you can go longer between charges. The X7e is built tough, earning an SGS 5-Star drop and crush resistance rating, as well as IP64 dust and water resistance. It runs on a MediaTek Helio G81 Ultra and sports a 50MP rear camera for everyday shots. Normally priced at PHP 14,999, it’s dropping to PHP 9,999 for the 7.7 promo. That’s today, so make sure you get yourself one. Like Now.
The Nothing Phone (4b) anchors Nothing’s new entry-level “b” series, blending a smooth, vibrant matte unibody frame with a semi-transparent top section. It features a 6.77-inch FHD+ 120Hz AMOLED display and is driven by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 processor, paired with 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage. A robust 5,400mAh battery powers the device, running Android 16-based Nothing OS out of the box. Its standout feature is a streamlined, vertical Glyph Bar on the rear panel that flashes live updates, app alerts, and charging progress via a compact strip of white LED segments. It’ll be out this week, so stay tuned to TGXP3.com for more updates.
