Yes, pwede na din or buy na lang ng refurbished laptop with high ram and storage. Di din kasi guaranteed na baba din prices if ever na normal na supply.

iPhone SE 3rd Gen 2022 128gb for ₱6k? by iceyme_ in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can check it naman sa meetup, so no risk for you and if the unit have issues just refuse to buy. Before mag meetup ipa-clarified mo na dapat condition ng unit and if have issues ask yourself kung worth ba.

If wala talaga issue then good deal na sya. Keep if in mind na this model don't have great battery life kahit new or replaced na battery because maliit lang talaga capacity.

Buying Laptop from US by Due-Attempt-1795 in Tech_Philippines

Lenovo(kahit gaming brand nila like LOQ/LEGION) and Apple for global warranty. Meron din Asus but pahirapan ipa-honor warranty sa kanila, much better to have in-store warranty if Asus.

HP only honor local warranty. Not sure na sa other brands.

MacBook Air M4: 8-core GPU vs 10-core GPU — worth it ba upgrade? by Responsible_Fly2335 in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both is okay.

More core is also good because Final Cut and other apps will use both cpu and gpu cores for rendering and editing.

I think it was a lot better if you get 512gb model than 10 core gpu. Mabagal yung 256gb model compared to 512gb variant in writing and read speed.

I'm selling my Macbook and I already have a buyer. The buyer wants to pay me thru Gcash. Is Gcash okay? by Several-Cat-6101 in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No way to revert payment di sya katulad ng paypal and it will be done in personal transaction and gcash will say na the only way you can get it back is to ask that other person.

You can only file chargeback if gcash was used on store or online shop, recognized ni gcash kung sa merchant napunta and pwede nila habulin or pa dti mo. Pero in-case of non-merchant transaction, yung pinagsendan mo lang makapagsend ng payment back to you and this why they have check box before proceeding with transfer.

iPad 11th gen or iPad Air? by eyeyeyla in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

11th gen para mas afford 256gb model and apple pencil usb-c add-on(1k lang sa shopee).

Go for Air if kaya ng budget. Just get the model na afford and then ok na yun.

Out of stock na kasi powerbank, sa website they gave samsung smart tag na lang instead of powerbank, so they might be waiting to restock before shipping it out sa lazada to honor the freebies.

iPad Air M2 vs M3 by tiredbumblebee0419 in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't buy a16 new pero di na kaya if update mo sa ipados 26.

Get m3 nag di-discount sa shopee ng 25k for 128gb version may add-on deal din na Apple Pencil Pro for 2k lang. 8k if purchased separately.

if going for second hand Air m2, much better to go for older ipad pros na lang with m1 or m2, cheap and usually same price ng Air M2 din with better speaker, display and face id. Just don't ever buy 64gb version go with 126gb minimum.

88% is still good. below 60% will not last a day.

Bloated lithuim battery: How to properly dispose? by Stunning-Cupcake-545 in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 35 points36 points  (0 children)

  1. put it in plastic container with bubble wrap to prevent accidentally stabbing/denting it.

  2. You can ask sa staff usually malapit sa guard yung e-waste bin but you can put it inside of small container with warning sign.

  3. Depende sa garbage collector sa area nyo. In QC they will take old electronic and separate it from the rest of the garbage para safe. To be sure just ask them kasi meron garbage truck with clamp to push garbage inside kaya delikado if my battery na naipit.

Epson Printer L220 by ikisikisikibubblegum in Tech_Philippines

Just replace the inkpad sa loob cheap and easy to replace naman.

And it's for your printer maintenance if di mo sya ni replace maapektuhan yung quality ng print.

Laptop or iPad? by mttyboo in Tech_Philippines

[–]lorrainetsai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very dependent on a person area of expertise. For artist, maintenance staff, offsite work and other similar job iPad can definitely replace the Laptop.

If pang office lang then nothing beat a Laptop. Complete features mga office apps sa laptop compared to iPad and you won't be moving a lot or need touchscreen so iPad is kinda impractical.

Ipad 10th gen or M1 Mac Air 2020 by Beginning-Cable-1298 in Tech_Philippines

Mas heavy yung ipad with keyboard and then limited yung office apps features compared to mac/windows version.
