You can consider us your friend, but we’d rather have you give something to other people you love this Christmas.

Today, we list down 7 of the cool things we found online that can definitely make your friends smile this season. Whether they are photography enthusiasts or gaming buffs, the list we prepared got everything covered.

Let’s get the ball rolling!

Whether they are going to use it as main OS hard drive or another storage for new games (yes, load new Steam games there, buddy!), the Kingston A400 SSD surely packs the features and size options to keep them playing all night.

A 240GB A400SSD costs around PhP2,750 and may be bought at Lazada or Shopee (Playbook Store) for added convenience. We encourage you to buy it as early as possible as supplies may be limited.

Give this to your friends or family who are fond of taking photos and videos. There are plenty of reasons why we’re recommending this apart from its price (yup, a 128GB only costs PhP2,350).
