  1. Tounge ina the price hahahaha! Mayaman ako pero hindi ko to bibilhin sa halagang 45k hahahaha!


  2. Well, if you buy it at Shop Blackberry it’s $899.00 or equivalent to Php42k. Still expensive though.


  3. Di ba NFC icon yung “N” na nasa taas ng screen dun sa huling seconds ng video? Yung kasama ng mga bluetooth icon.
    Masyado nga mahal.
