I am not sure if Oris is popular here in the Philippines but if you’re looking for a men’s watch and you’re budget does not permit you yet to buy a Rolex, IWC or Patek Philippe, I suggest you check out Oris men’s watches.

Oris Classic Date (image above, credit: Oris) is a good choice for a decent entry level men’s watch. It offers you quality, simplicity and style. It’s perfect when you’re going to the office, on a date, or for casual and formal occasions. More »

The camera will be down to 8 megapixels compared to 12 megapixels of Satio. It is supposedly to feature a Symbian S60 5th generation OS Smartphone and full  3.5″ touchscreen display. More »

HP released its new line of premium laptops with its new HP Envy. They recently released two models of HP Envy, the HP Envy 13 and HP Envy 15.

ENVY 13 packs a powerful punch into a slim and stylish package starting at just 3.74 lbs. and less than 1″ thin.
