Talk about things other than video games. What are your other hobbies? What's your favorite TV show? Are you into sports. Any recommended restaurants? Do you travel?

I dunno about the price, pero the closest thing to an iPhone is definitely the Android OS.

Shop around Greenhills Shoppesville for the best price. :agree:

For DIY, Google search is your best friend...

For the technology-challenged, there's always the phone shops like those in Greenhills.

Be warned though that any unlocking or jailbreaking will void your store warranty if something goes wrong with your iPhone.

fafs NOKIA PC SUITE ininstall ko yung kasama sa package ng cellphone anyway, based on your link, you can send messages using PC SUITE through your mobile to another mobile user which is different to our intention na to save/store the massages to the computer...

I'd recommend that you personally try out the phone. What may be good for me may not be good for you. Choose your desired screen size, and if you need a virtual screen keyboard or a sliding keyboard. If you're particular with the camera, choose if you need a 5MP or 8MP. Would you go for HTC's TouchFLO or Samsung's Touch Wiz interface?

The one thing I can recommend is get an Android with the latest OS (currently 2.2 Froyo) and upgradeable to Gingerbread (2.3). Also, get one with a 12-month warranty.

Finally got me an iphone 4 yesterday...tagal ko din pinag isipan kasi kung samsung na Galaxy S or yun eh. In the end, being a previous iphone user won at plus being able to trade in my old iphone 2G ror a descent price helped out a lot na din. :agree:

I'd like to recommend the x10, but its stuck with Android 2.1...better wait for the Xperia Arc or the PSP Phone.

Most HTC Android phones are better in user interface and build quality than the LG's or even the Galaxy S phones.

Congrats. :clap:

I'd like to get the iPhone 4 too, I'm due for an upgrade on the 19th of Feb, pero I'm going to resist it dahil lalabas na ang iPhone 5 in just a few months time. Konting tiis muna ako. :agree:

Salamat bro! :agree:

Ako din eligible na for an upgrade from Verizon pagbalik ko sa US this coming March...kaya lang pag nag upgrade kasi ako from my regular Verizon phone doon, yung usual bill ko which is around $50 lang a month, tataas to almost $100 which is almost double dahil ma require ako to add a Data plan plus yung regular usage pa on top of that. Nasasayangan kasi ako dahil most of the time naman, marami free wifi areas and where I currently work there which is at Barnes and Noble has free wifi pa din.
Kaya I opted to buy a prepaid iphone 4 na lang na prepaid, at least wala required data plans / packages and no other fees na ko na iintindihin. Maganda pa dun was that yun nga, I was able to trade in my 2G iphone...kasi sa totoo lang, mahirap na ibenta yun as 2nd hand lalo na sa US.

Nabili ko pala yung iPhone 4 sa greenhills kahapon.
Locked sa Globe yung phone pero prepaid. Ibig sabihin 4.2.1 na siya and eligible for all future updates dahil nga locked naman sa carrier unlike kung bibili ka ng papaunlock and jailbreak mo. Ang alam ko kasi pag unlocked lang + jailbroken which my old iphone was, hindi pwede i-update dahil babalik sa pagiging locked yung phone.

Price was 36K pero nakuha ko ng 34k. I was able to trade in my old iphone 2G for 8k worth...ok na din since gamit na gamit naman yung phone ko although maingat naman ako kaya wala naman sira or anything. Mahina na lang talaga yung battery after almost 31/2 years of use and abuse as an ipod na din. I also traded in an old Samsung slide phone for an extra 1k...kaya nakabawas pa ng konti sa babayaran ko.

All in all, I paid 25K for the phone tapos nag dagdag na lang ako ng extra 400 for the capdase case and for transfer ng contacts and photos ko from my old phone.

@Seraph011:

congrats on your new phone fafs... baka naman may contacts ka and name nung store baka pede kong i-check din... ask ko lang din kung 16GB or 32GB yung iphone 4 mo?

suggestion naman kung kailangan ko ba talaga ng 16GB or 32GB na lang? parang naiisip ko praktikal ang 16GB since for sure bibili rin ako ng NGP... hayz naku patay ang bulsa ko nito mabubutas na bibigat pa! hayz...

Sige bro, pm ko sayo mamaya yung contact number ng store, naiwan ko kasi sa kotse yung receipt eh. Yung kinuha ko na iphone 16gb lang kasi music and a few photos lang naman ilalagay ko kasi ipad naman gamit ko movies and other media.

Kung bibili ka, isipin mo lang din kung ano mga plans mo for the iphone. Kung balak mo lagyan ng mga games, movies, music etc, baka mas ok ng 32gb. Hindi ko lang sure kung magkano kasi hindi ko na natanong dahil 16gb lang talaga habol ko. Pero kung music lang naman, ok na ok na siguro maski 16gb lang. Pero kung yun nga, kungbibili ka din ng NGP for gaming, I think the 16gb iphone would be enough na din.
