The Oneplus 7T was just announced last September 27, and it’s only been shy of 2 weeks, and we already see reports of the OnePlus 7T Pro and even the OnePlus 8. Let’s focus on the closer launch date first, which is the OnePlus 7T Pro.
The OnePlus 7T Pro was first spotted at the OnePlus Care Application. OnePlus Care is a diagnostic tool used to repair and upgrade OnePlus phones. Youtuber Techroider released a video confirming the listing of the OnePlus 7T Pro on the Oneplus Care App.
Another substantial leak of the OnePlus 7T Pro is an Amazon Listing with a price of AED 2,699 or roughly Php 38,000. The Amazon listing also shows a blue gradient variant of the OnePlus 7T Pro alongside its main features. Based on the leaks, the new OnePlus 7T Pro will not have wireless charging nor an IP rating. It does, however, seem only to be a minor upgrade to the OnePlus 7 Pro. It’s basically the OnePlus 7T but with full QHD Amoled Display.

Today is another day for shopping for everyone as different e-commerce sites are offering sales, discounts, and in-store deals today and most of you are probably shopping right now. If you haven’t clicked that buy now button then you better read this one up as PayMaya will be offering cashbacks of up to Php3,000.
So how can you take advantage of the cashbacks of PayMaya? Well, it’s easy. This month, you can get cashbacks up to Php1,000 this October for all of your transactions and if you spend Php5,000 this month, you can even get a Php500 cash on top of everything else.
In case you’re not shopping online then it’s fine because PayMaya still got you covered as you can get up to 100% cashback maximum of Php1,000 for October for each spend and a Php500 reward for an accumulated Php5,000 purchase this month as long as you use Paymaya QR.
So if you’re still using Cash-on-delivery, I strongly suggest that you get a PayMaya card and account now because not only that you can get cashbacks, this one is more convenient too.

Ready to waste some money? Well, the official prices for the iPhone 11 and 11 Pro are here and damn, you’ll definitely want to sell your kidneys just to get the latest iPhones. Why? because despite bringing the price down on the iPhone 11, the starting price for getting an iPhone is still very expensive. So the question remains, how much is the starting price for the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro?
iPhone 11 Price in the Philippines
iPhone 11 64GB – Php47,990
iPhone 11 128GB – Php50,990
iPhone 11 256GB – Php56,990
iPhone 11 Pro Price in the Philippines
iPhone 11 Pro 64GB – Php67,990
iPhone 11 Pro 256GB – Php76,990
iPhone 11 Pro 512GB – Ph89,990
iPhone 11 Pro Max Price in the Philippines
iPhone 11 Pro Max 64GB – Php73,990
iPhone 11 Pro Max 256GB – Php82,990
iPhone 11 Pro Max 512GB – Ph95,990
The iPhone 11 is the wisest choice as this one has a more affordable price and yet, we’ll still get the A13 Bionic processor inside and we also get the all-new wide-angle lens on the smartphone, however, if you really that bigger storage, that telephoto lens, better design, and OLED display then you can go for the iPhone 11 Pro or iPhone 11 Pro Max but hey, you might want to sell your kidney for that.
