Thanks for the suggestion. We’re editing the article with clearer parameters. That said, we will be working on selfie smartphones under Php10K.
I like the way you present the phones. ascending-price order or descending, it gives readers a good following and will try to compare adjacently priced phone. This will make it easier for us, readers, to decide. Thank you for that.
