The
summer season in the Philippines has already began, and thousands of senior high
school students are slated to graduate as the season is rolling on. With that
much said, I guess these deserve a more practical gift for entering a new
chapter in their lives and it could be a smartphone that sport overwhelmingly impressive
specs and features that cater to their taste and a price tag which suit one's budget.
This is where two new budget-friendly mobile marvels come in, the Realme 3 and
Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.
No
puns intended, Realme and Xiaomi are best known for their intriguingly powerful
and affordable entry-level smartphones that many would think of them as midrangers
and the two which were recently launched in the Philippines respectively should
be no exception. In fact, Filipino tech addicts and critics are already
impressed by how these two fare in terms of specs and availability. If you want
to know why these two are well-deserving gifts for any senior high school
graduate, take a look at their spec sheet and see for yourself.
