Samsung Galaxy S5 Active leaks out!

Thanks to our favorite leakster +@evleaks. We just got a glimpse of the Samsung Galaxy S5 Active. It is rumored that the Samsung Galaxy S5 active would be a rugged variant of the Samsung Galaxy S5. Just like its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S4, the Samsung Galaxy S5 Active would have physical buttons instead of capacitive. It will also have an Active key in where you can use it as shortcut to Activity zone app which will give you barometer reading and compass direction.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 Active is also rumored to have an OIS in its camera and a larger 5.2″ display but with the same resolution. The Samsung Galaxy S5 Active is expected to have the same Snapdragon 801 processor, 2 GB RAM, 16 GB storage and 16 Megapixel Camera.

Tech21 Impact Shell & Impact Tactical for Galaxy S5 Review
Whenever we buy a smartphone, the first thing that we look for is a case for our smartphones. Yeah, we always look for cases to protect our devices from scratches, dents, and cracks. When it comes to cases, I always trust Tech21.  Not only that they’re stylish but Tech21 also gives protection thanks to its D3O technology. Here’s a short video on how D3O technology protect your device.

I have two Tech21 cases for my Samsung Galaxy S5 but the Tech21 Impact Tactical is my favorite one. I really love the matte design on the Tech21 Impact Tactical. The texture feels good and the case isn’t really thick that’s why it feels good not only in the pocket but also in the hand whenever I’m typing in one hand.

The Tech21 Impact Tactical features a matte finish and an embossed line on the back, which makes the case less dull and more premium. All of the buttons click well and sockets weren’t blocked. Those are the two things that I really look at when buying a case.

The other case that I got is Tech21 Impact Shell. Compared to the Impact Tactical, the Impact Shell has a glossy and smooth finish and it doesn’t have an embossed line at the back. I also noticed that I have more grip on the Impact shell compared to the Impact Tactical.

The Tech21 Impact Shell and Impact Tactical for Samsung Galaxy S5 are now available at Digital Walker for P1,250. Do I recommend it? Yes. I love it. Get it now for your Samsung Galaxy S5.

Here’s an interesting tablet from a local brand. Obviously, the name of this tablet came from one of the biggest stars in the showbiz industry, Marian Rivera. This tablet caught my eye not because of Marian Rivera (seriously!) in her beautiful red dress but because of its specifications. The Marian Tab would be powered by an Octa-Core processor and it will have a 1920 x 1200 display. Not only it will have an Octa-Core processor and a WUXGA display, but it will also have a dual sim card slot. Check out the full specifications below:

  • 5 MP Front Camera
  • Bluetooth
  • 3G

  • Dual Sim
  • 3500mAh Battery
  • Android 4.4.2 Kitkat

Unfortunately, the SRP of this tablet hasn’t been announced yet. But damn, the specifications of Marian Tab (the tablet, not Rivera!) is really interesting.

Google Play Movies now available in the Philippines

Google Play store offers us books and apps but not movies. But starting today, Google Play will now offer movies to us Filipinos in the Play Store. The movies are cheap though. Most of the recent movies are priced at P500 and up but if you just want to rent a movie, you can rent a movie at around P170.

The movies that are available are from Hollywood and I didn’t see a lot of Tagalog movies. Well, I wish I would see some great Filipino movies like OTJ but I hope I wouldn’t see My Little Bossings on the Play Store. I hate that movie.

JBL J55 Review

JBL J55 Review

I’ve reviewed a lot of JBL headphones before and I can say that they’re really making high-end entertainment system. Not only that they’re categorize as high-end earphones but they also create stylish and premium design on their headphones.

The JBL J55 review unit that I got is the black one and it looks very premium. The JBL J55 has a matte plastic body and it feels very sturdy. One unique feature that I that I love and hate in the JBL J55 is you can rotate the earcups for up to 180 degree. I love it because I can rotate but most of the time, I get annoyed with it because most of the time, I accidentally rotate the earcups.

The cable is flat that’s why it has less tangles and the it’s thick so you don’t have to worry about the wire inside it getting torn off. FYI, I love cables that are thick and flat. The cables are also long enough for my use. Not bad at all.

The earpads is one of the things that you’ll love in the JBL J55, it’s very soft and it’s very comfortable to use. Of all the on-ear headphones that I’ve trie, I think the JBL J55 was the most comfortable of em’all.

JBL is very proud that the JBL J55 is made for those people who love bass and yes, you won’t be disappointed when you choose the JBL J55. The bass was good and you can hear how it pummels in your ear.

If you’re looking outside the bass, you might notice the sound gets muffled because the sound gets deeper than I expected but don’t worry, it wasn’t really that noticeable.

JBL J55 is made for the people who love bass. Its design and construction are really worth for its price and it is one of the most premium looking that ‘s available in the market. The bass of the JBL J55 wasn’t disappointing too and overall, I really like the JBL J55.

The JBL J55 is now available at JBL Acoustical Space Megamall, JBL Sound Gallery BGC, and JBL Digital Dreams SM North.

The full specifications of LG G3 has been leaked and it looks like it would really have a QHD display on a 5.5 IPS display. LG is also proud that their next flagship would have a 1W speaker. Yeah, much better audio quality on a smartphone.
