I almost forgot about this, but the smartphone brand Elephone based in Hong Kong and mainland china just launched a couple of days ago in Shangrila Fort. They also forged a partnership with Lazada which in turn will be exclusively selling the product online in the Philippines together with existing ones in Europe and Southeast Asia. I haven't really experienced using one but during the launch, they let us handle the Elephone S1, Elephone P9000 and Elephone P8000. They also had the W2 which is a modern smartwatch accessory that's quite elegant looking and none of those modernly designed ones in the market.
 |
| This is the P8000 which boasts of Android OS, 4165 mAh battery that gives it longer hours of use, 4G LTE connection capable and has it's own fingerprint scanner. This retails for only Php 7,799. |
 |
| This is the W2 Smartwatch I was telling you about. It looks like a classic watch no? But no, it's a full blown smartwatch that can take health and pedometer data while you go about your normal work. We didn't have the price yet but I'm sure it'll be available in Lazada very soon! |
 |
| This is the Elephone S1 that only costs Php 3,999. It has 1GB RAM, 8GB ROM, Android 6.0, 13MP Main camera, plus a fingerprint scanner. It's one of the most affordable phones that has that feature, so if you're looking for one this might be it. |
 |
| This is the Elephone P9000 which has it's own wireless charger, 5.5 inch screen, 1080P display, 1.3 GHz MT6580 Quadcore processor, Hellp P10 Octacore and a fingerprint scanner. This is their high end one which costs Php 11,499. It's available now in Lazada! |
This would be welcome news to the shoppers of Lazada and the arrival of Elephone will make the saturated Android phone market a little challenging. Their pricepoint is quite different, they have every right to challenge the ones selling quite good with the similar specs giving Filipinos more selections. The battery life on the the Elephone P8000 impressed me most and perhaps that will entail having other brands make better battery life a priority too. It's value for money but I might hold back on that Elephone P9000 as I find it a bit too expensive. They have different markets anyway, hopefully they'll sell quite well online. If you were to buy something for Php 4000 though, this might be a good idea. Search well in Lazada and you may get a deal today.
