Mendokoro Ramenba

I’ve written before about how I loved my first slurp at Ramen Yushoken in Alabang so a visit to their just-opened sister outlet in Makati City was in order. Same owners, different name & location. The new place is called Mendokoro Ramenba (or Mindoro Ramen Bar as a joking friend would say). Mendokoro is located […]

Coolpad’s Ivvi could be world’s thinnest phone at 4.7mm

Chinese smartphone-maker Coolpad has a promo page floating around that teases their upcoming smartphone to be a record-breaker — the Ivvi. At just 4.7mm, it could dethrone the current title holder for having the thinnest profile.

We currently have the Vivo X5 Max as the world’s thinnest smartphone which measures at 4.75mm. If the Ivvi pushes though from China’s third largest smartphone company, it will just be thinner than the X5 Max by 0.5mm and by 0.15mm for the 4.85mm-thick Oppo R5.

No solid specs were included along the image other than its 4.7-inch display and what looks like a plastic body. Stay tuned as more information surfaces in the coming days.

OnePlus Two promises killer specs for cheaps

The current OnePlus One that’s being sold now already offers beefy specs with a price that’s below other flagships in its class. Now the company is well on its way of releasing the OnePlus Two which they promise would surprise people with its better specs and a price tag that will position the device competitively.

The company itself confirmed that an upcoming flagship is in the works and will most likely come out this May. As for the specs, nothing is official as of yet but rumors point to a 5.5-inch display with either Full HD or Quad HD resolution. But considering that most flagships now or those that are yet to come all sport 2K resolution, we’re willing to bet OnePlus would also go for the higher screen resolution.

The latest Snapdragon 810 should also make it to the OnePlus Two, meaning it will entail a 64-bit chip and can support 4GB of RAM. OS-wise, Android’s 5.0 Lollipop should be expected along with 3,300mAh of battery.

We can expect more from OnePlus’ next flagship as Carl Pei, the company’s co-founder, assures us that their phone “would be a surprise and would impress many techies all around the world” not just because of its internals but also for its value for price or bang-for-the-buck.

Keep it locked here as we’ll be sure to update you when more details arise.
