Local handset maker Cherry Mobile recently made history by releasing to the market the country’s first triple-SIM cellphone, the Trident.

I really wanted a phone upgrade this year: I wanted a touch phone and one that’s powered by Google’s Android platform. Here’s the story of how I got it in less than an hour, as well as my first impressions of my phone of choice.
Smart and Globe are fighting over the title of having the “fastest mobile broadband service”. As they fight themselves in the media, I thought that perhaps its better to make my own study of the three competing mobile broadband products.

Today, we take a look at Samsung’s P520, the Armani phone which is expected to be a hit among society’s upper-crust and trendsetters.
Samsung redefines the term “camera phones” with the G800, the five-megapixel behemoth which also boasts of a Xenon flash, 4X digital zoon and 3X optical inner zoom.
This is a quick review, focusing on the phone’s strength.
Samsung has become the first major international phone manufacturer to introduce a dual-SIM handset in the Philippine market. Two new companies have earlier introduced their own dual-SIM phones but they have yet to catch the attention of brand-conscious Filipinos.
The D880 is comparable with the classic D900 in terms of size and built. It is slightly bigger and thicker than most phones nowadays but that is a small price to pay for having a dual-SIM phone.
