Yesterday was really so good. I started my day washing our clothes since I was the one who will do it. I am the washer of the house since I was in 10th grade. I start washing our clothes at 7 o'clock in the morning and finish it around 1 o'clock in the afternoon. My arms are quite aching because I washed some bed covers and bath towels. I really hate washing those things because whenever I am rinsing them they are so heavy.

I know some of you will prefer washing the plates or being plate attendant. But not for me. I would still prefer washing clothes than dishes. My sister didn't helped me because she was still in her online class. I think it's their final exam which they called it Quarterly Performance Task (QPT). They don't have an exam, that is their very exam. What's good thing about QPT is that students cannot cheat because the teacher and student will be in the zoom, one on one. Meaning, you have to review very well unlike answering on google forms and Microsoft word.

What happened after I washed our clothes?

It was around 1:10 pm when I read my mother's chat. She chatted me that she needed 7k PHP because she will pay our monthly sack of rice and some groceries as well. She hasn't received her paycheck so she asked me to send some. I read it late. I haven't converted my bitcoin cash yet and it will take time. So, I asked my friends especially in Noiseristificationism family. Thankfully, bro @Eunoia lend me his money from paymaya to gcash.

I would pay him via bch to bch payment. He was a money saver. Thank you bro! Anyways, after he sent the money, I transfer it to my mother's gcash account. Everything went well. I took a rest for awhile because my energy is depleting. I lay down in our hammock at the back of house. I felt refreshed, the wind was blowing my face and the wind was producing swish sound. What a lovely day!

Receiving a call from my auntie (The surprise!)

My eyes were closed and I was really starting to fall asleep when my phone rang. My eyes are quite blurry because my arms were covered by it. I reached my phone which was placed on the top of the drum. I answered her call and she talked about her gift. As you all know, I celebrated my 21st birthday on April 11. She promised me that she will buy me a new phone since my phone was used since 2018.

There's no room to contain my happiness when she said that we will go to Robinson General Trias to buy a new phone. We met exactly 2:30pm in front of Jollibee. I just smiled at her and aunt smiled back. Alright, we were looking for a budget phone. Specifically, I was looking for a budget phone which has high battery capacity, large storage including ROM and RAM, and refresh rate. I don't care much about camera really.

We roamed in the area until we found Infinix Hot 11s and Tecno Pova Neo. I made a comparison between two using PinoyTechGuide. Surprisingly, I will go for Tecno Pova Neo. Yeah, that's what I bought and I didn't regret it. This new phone is so fantastic! Why? Here's the quick review.

Tecno Pova Neo 6gb/128gb

You want to guess the price? Oops! I will reserved it later friends. Let me tell you its top specs for me. So this model has 6gb RAM and 128gb ROM which is totally perfect for me who loved to install many applications. It has 6000 mAh that will last long. I loved phone which has high battery storage. It is also a fast charging phone with 18W. Truly, a good phone, isn't?

I have been using this phone for 24 hours now and I can say it really has a good performance. Since it has 120Hz and it really lived up its spec. It is very smooth. No lagging while playing mobile legends. I opened as many applications as possible to see if where it will lag. However, I didn't experienced any of it. I drained the battery this morning and recharge it. I charge the phone from 9:38am and reached 100% on 12:34pm. It took me 3 hours to fully recharge.

Honestly, the camera is quite low compared to others, why? It is because this phone is for gaming phone. Meaning, it was developed for the sake of gamers so do not expect that the phone will have a good camera. However, it's still average. I can use to it though. So how much is this phone? We bought this at the price of Php7,990 (USD152.57). Perfect for budget phone.

This phone will be used as substitute for my laptop for a while. I have two phones now and this new one will served as my working phone. If you are looking for buying a new phone and haven't decided yet. Try to search and discover Infinix and Tecno. They are both superb in terms of battery capacity, storage, refresh rate and performance. So that's where my article will end today.

Thank you for reading!

Lots of blessings! That sounds like a really useful phone minus the camera though. I would probably buy like that if I don't need a camera but camera performance is the first thing I look for when it comes to phones.

Sna lahat may magpabigay na auntie. The last time I received a phone as a gift was from my Sister, a policewoman. It was an Oppo F7 and I really enjoyed it way back then and it is still around even though I've bought newer phones when I had my last job. 😅

I wouldn't recommend infinix😅. I was really disappointed with that brand as it was the brand I bought for my best friend. I bought it as my Christmas gift for her, but guess what? In just a month the phone had already some troubles😂. I wouldn't say that it was my friend fault of how the way she use the phone and so it easily get broken, because my friend don't even have any app's like games as she only use the phone for messenger and Facebook, so it means the phone isn't that worthy. I choose that brand because of how amazing the specs it has and also it was very affordable, but as what i have said it ain't that worthy, honestly. So you did a great choice of choosing Tecno, I think it was a way better than infinix. Anyway congratulations for your new phone.
