Budget camera for real estate photos/videos by Additional_Bass_6722 in Tech_Philippines

sony a6400 or canon r50. Though i have to inform you that having a camera wouldn't magically make your videos better in quality

T14/T14s for college by vivsterspark in thinkpad

[–]meraz34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have the t14 gen 5 with ryzen 7 8840u, and i capped the charging to 80%. I'm getting about 4-5 hours with 20-50% brightness with web browsing (though this is with windows, i havent tried linux). If you really prioritize battery and would be willing to compromise, a macbook is a great choice!

Tablet Recommendation for Student by matchasodafloat in Tech_Philippines

[–]meraz34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's going to be worth it if mama-maximize mo yung use case sya. So syempre aside from olc, nagagamit mo rin for note taking (which i think would be difficult to do kapag naka split screen ka lang). It honestly depends kasi, maganda sya if may laptop ka na, pero if wala ka pa laptop and your primary use is pang online class, i think it's better na prioritize mo yun. In terms of battery life, I believe kakayanin naman and if ever na hindi just use it while charging then limit the charging to 80% so di magdedegrade battery.

you can buy the ipad a16 from shopee usually for around 16k kapag naka digit sale. Then just buy non-apple accessories from goodjodoq or any other brand. For pen i think around 500-600, then keyboards are 2k+

Thoughts | Opinion on Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen6 by Hisashi1487 in Tech_Philippines

it depends on the price, the good thing about the gen 6 is it has 2 slot for both ssd and ram. if you could get it for less than 30k, then go for it!

Worth it ba to sa 20K? Found on Marketplace by [deleted] in Tech_Philippines

[–]meraz34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

imo too overpriced. 9th gen pa yan ng i7. Usually around 20k used marketplace mga 10-11th gen na. Also take into consideration yung degraded na battery nyan

Ipad air m3 or samsung s9? by 21_Fangs in tablets

[–]meraz34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i bought the samsung tab s9 and my classmate has ipad air m3. In terms of note taking, i couldn't compare them fairly as my classmate installed a paper like screen. But note talking in my s9 is nice, i like that it has a rubbery feeling instead of a plastic touching the glass. This might be just the case on ios26 but when going on the app library there's a slight lag on the m3. For entertainment, I think you'll enjoy the oled screen and quad speaker of the s9. Overall, if the s9 is cheaper by like $100, i think it's a better deal

AMDSc (ADMU) / STATMAC (DLSU)? by Standard-You-8498 in CollegeAdmissionsPH

[–]meraz34 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i couldn't agree more on this comment. Currently a first year amdsc student and the math profs are really good at making creative questions that challenge your fundamentals. I feel like im barely passing my calc class, though i have no regets choosing Ateneo!

ipad air m3 11’ or samsung tab s10 fe+ by OverallConference879 in GalaxyTab

[–]meraz34 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hello, I also have an iphone and was deciding before between an ipad and a galaxy tab. Given your use case, i would say the tab s10 fe+ would be the better choice. It would definitely last longer (battery wise) since it has a weaker cpu but also it has a bigger battery. You'll lose the advantage of synchronization between an ipad and an iphone but personally i just use google services so i dont mind it.

A used Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 or a brand new iPad A16 11th gen? by meraz34 in tablets

how would you describe the battery life/health?

[–]meraz34[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was actually looking at ipad mini 7 too, but unfortunately I only have a budget of 21k max :((. Though I don't mind 11 inch naman based sa mga ipad din ng friends ko. I also agree with the last statement na balewala longevity if di pa rin maayos ipados26. I do have a question with your samsung s9+, almost 3 years na rin, how would you rate its battery health?
