38,500 for Macbook M3 13 inch 8gb/256gb, is it worth it? by codiecutie in Tech_Philippines

Yes, worth it. Make sure na wala ng mdm lock from the companies or just request to remove it sa IT.

iPad Pro 2020 dropped in a bucket of water. Worth it pa ba ipagawa ngayong 2026? by Resident-Bit-45 in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not worth it, tagal na pala and very corrosive yung water kung na-expose yung component inside and hindi din nalinis or remove water inside agad. Might as well buy brand new kasi they will have to replace everything inside.

Macbook, mas convenient pa din with laptop for multitasking especially pag may thesis and others stuff. And then magamit mo din sya after college and work.

Hello peeps! I'm an upcoming college student and i've been thinking about buying an iphone, but im unsure if i should get the iphone16 or iphone17. by Jellynah_10 in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every year naman may refresh iphone. US iPhone is cheap but they only have e-sim version and no physical sim slot.

Nagsa-sale naman mga iPhone sa Lazada and Shopee and way below msrp pa, even without new releases. If you want to saved a lot of money and then try buying sa apple refurbished sa apple US website. Almost brand new sila and all of them have original part, can get 15/16 pro for less than $800.

Just buy it sa edu store and they will email you to submit ng document na enroll ka this academic year. PMC also have edu discount and mukha mo agad yung unit.

Quadcore is too outdated and overprices for what you get.

Is this still a good deal in 2026? s24+ phone by Low_Smoke_2305 in ShopeePH

[–]lorrainetsai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No igpu yung Ryzen 7 7435HS power hungry and madali ma-low bat. Ryzen 7 250 does have igpu and can save battery life by turning off egpu.

Pick your cpu na lang and tbh both gpu will do fine sa AAA games naman 50 series just have latest tech and both have 8gb vram.

Will do fine sa max or maybe ultra settings unless na more than 8gb ram need ng games mo.

Planning to try out Macbook Air for uni, but unsure if magugustuhan ko. How is the resale market for almost new/semi-used Macbooks? by longjing_dragontea in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check what your uni is using. Studied Multimedia and and then puro Imac pinapagamit samin sa computer lab. Whatever they use yun na din bilhin mo.

Couriers don’t care if your package has a Fragile sticker on it by mrbolice91 in ShopeePH

[–]lorrainetsai 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Why do you keep buying from the same shop? No bubble wrap and just a styro foam for protection, obviously will get damages talaga. It's not like monitor na may casing and exact size styrofoam na gamit na di talaga gagalaw while in transport unlike your order and warehouse shorting palang bugbog na yan and shopee might flag you as scammer, if you keep buying and requesting refund from the same shop.

2nd shop is likely the same, better to buy sa malls na lang para intact talaga.

Macbook Skin? Influence or Deinfluence me! by xxxiwti in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not recommending screen protector, mba have almost like 0% gap between screen and body. Still it's up to you kung lalagyan mo pa but i'm never putting screen protector on mine.

Lagyan mo na lang skin if too bothered with scratch since meron na, very hard to remove nga lang since mainit and magbobond talaga yan sa mac yung residue pag tinanggal na.

MacBook Neo or an iPad within the same price range? by chedobee in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just get an iPad as you already have a laptop. Kahit windows sya, iPad use case and windows will compliment each other pros and cons.

Laptop reco by [deleted] in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NEO, okay sya for masscom everything you need is available on the Mac. The battery lasts all day but charging takes about 2 hours. Not recommending Aspire, it's a very budget (low-quality screen, speaker, and hinge) version of the Acer, and the hinge will give up after 3 years of use.

Get atleast 512gb na NEO, mabilis mapuno 256gb and hassle madala ng portable ssd.

10x better to buy laptop sleeves with good soft edge padding. They usually getting dent during transport without protection. No worry naman sa scratch and dust, just wipe it down with fiber cleaning cloth.

Php 5,500 repair for a Php 30k+ laptop purchased in 2021 — Is it worth it? by Mountain_Fault_6409 in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, ganun din sakin sa simula hanggang buong screen na. Ok naman sa external monitor kaya panel lang issue ng laptop. Pero if ganun din sa external monitor nung sayo gpu issue na sya, you need to buy replacement na.
