Title: Latest PS3 price and where to get
Post by: anchit on Mar 02, 2009 at 11:37 AM
Hi guys, my officemate is looking for a PS3, ano na ang latest price nya at saan makakakuha? also what other specs that need to be noted? NTSC or PAL, Asian or US version - waa naman syang region 1 dvd, warranty, service?

Thanks!

i think the most popular right now is mr dynamic in v-mal greenhills. around 24k package already with 3 games. their units are from hk so this are the ntsc asian units. 80 gb na with ds3 controller already.

might be lower if you dont get the games included.

Hong Kong version...does that mean it plays region 3 DVDs? I too plan to buy a PS3. On the box does it say what country is it from and what regions the PS3 plays? I plan on buying my PS3 at SM Manila or SM Cubao.

MR Dynamic Telecom
Contact Number: 7249230


Pero ako, sa Datablitz ako bumili for authenticity and latest models.  Kasi nun tumitingin ako sa MR Dynamic and EYO ng PS3 late last year, meron pa silang mga binebenta na 40GB models when I knew that those were phased out already.  My concern is, since di ako marunong tumingin, baka mabentahan ako ng old stock.  Pareho lang naman mga price ng unit, essentially.

Post by: alihug on Jun 10, 2009 at 05:25 PM
lens # 1 - for blu ray movies

............unlike kung single lens laspag agad kung gagamitin sa movies & gaming alike.

may naka-sulat po ba sa box  or label kung double lens na ang ps3?  kasi kung bibili ka pa lang, eh di naman pwede buksan and unit, ano yun, tiwala ka nalang sa sasabihin ng tindera? mahirap pakawalan po ang 20T.

Post by: anchit on Jun 14, 2009 at 02:15 PM
rumor has it that they are slashing 150USD from its price, number 5 na sila sa ranking ng gaming consoles, tinalo pa sila ng PS2 primarily dahilsa sobrang mahal nila.

Wii, Xbox,DSlite,PS2 then PS3 if im not mistaken.

Title: Re: Latest PS3 price and where to get
Post by: Verbl Kint on Nov 10, 2009 at 01:57 AM
The cheapest price right now for the slim is 15k in Greenhills (you would have to haggle and look around).

i-Tech sells it for 16k. 

Don't have an idea on the prices for the old phat ones on sale.

Only the first two generations of the PS3 phat have backwards compatibility. There are phat models that don't have this feature anymore.

you can't find new BC-equipped units in stores anymore, they were phased out in early 2007.
Title: Re: Latest PS3 price and where to get
Post by: indie boi on Nov 11, 2009 at 08:23 AM
Yup, you'll only find the BC-equipped PS3s in the second-hand market. That is, if owners are willing to sell it, especially the launch units with the card reader. I hear they're collector's items already.

True that.  I've seen some in mint/near mint condition that are actually being sold at a more expensive price than the slim, especially the non-black models.
Title: Re: Latest PS3 price and where to get
Post by: DonMiguel85 on Nov 12, 2009 at 12:06 AM
Another thing... It's rather pointless to get a BC-equipped unit if it's not a US/Region 1 console, unless you can read Japanese and/or have a collection of PAL PS2 games.
Remember, while PS3 games are region-free, PS1/PS2 discs aren't.

I just called E-stop this morning. 16,350 cash for the 120GB, "around 17,350" pag card. They don't have the 80G anymore daw.

According to PS posters:

Datablitz 120GB - 15900 cash, 16500 card
I-Tech/Mr Dynamic 120GB - 15800 cash (1 month parts/1 year warranty), 15000 cash (1 week parts/1 year warranty)

If the PS3 is to be used primarily as a BD player, would getting a larger drive be worth it?

Nope it's pointless. It's meant mainly for installing games and saving your own media files. It's also cheaper to just get a 120GB and upgrade to a 320 or 500GB drive later if you need more space.

True.  I am actually interested on the price premium of the 250GB hard drive vs the slim w/ its default 120GB.

Got my 250Gb slim in GH last sunday for 16700 3months warranty lifetime service, no parts. What i noticed was a bit strange when i got home, when i plugged the controller that came with the unit and the exta one i got from datablitz the LED of the unit controller is dimmer... I dont think its a deal breaker, but i just found that strange.

I finally gave in last weekend - Datablitz SM Marikina. Php 16,200 (card), cash is around 15,800. Not really the best deal but since the (whole) family was already there, "laban" na  ;D. Also got an extra controller, then Call of Duty 2 for a game. Saving up for the Rock Band Set  ;D ;D ;D, but most likely next year na.

Quite odd since other branches offer it for P15,200 cash. Maybe that was the Asian unit?
Title: Re: Latest PS3 price and where to get
Post by: Compaq on Dec 08, 2009 at 08:23 AM
Mine is also Asian unit. As mentioned, not the best deal. Datablitz SM Marikina guys were honest in saying that some branches, particularly GH, offers a more competitive price. I had a choice actually  ;D, to either buy from them or from their other branches, or from other store for that matter. However, one consideration was am not that willing to go from one place to another nowadays (car is still in CASA due to Ondoy). We're already in SM Marikina, I had the urge (feeling of wanting  ;D) to buy a PS3, pressure from the kids... eh di bili na.

Thanks to pchin by the way.  :)

Congrats brader!!! I would have done the same if few hundreds lang ang difference. The traffic and gas plus parking fee and most important time get it na lang kung saan ka malapit. Datablitz Trinoma and SM North which is just across has a 500 peso difference in their SRP kapag ganun lang at puwede lakad then ok lang  ;D

Hi Sir,

No I can't for I have a HONG KONG Asian ver, theirs is Singapore Asian and the advantage of our unit is you can hook it to any tv even if it's not an hd you will have a colored screen output. While the Singapore ver will have a black and white screen output if the tv is not hd.
Secondly, we give 3 months replacement on any factory defect.

Madness! Both Singapore and HK are PAL nations. Besides alam ko the HK/Sing units are basically Japanese NTSC units with Region 3 for DVDs.
Though be warned: On Jap/HK units some of my R1 games like Bioshock and Soul Calibur 4 only output in PAL in 480i/p mode for some reason. If you wanna be sure all games will run on NTSC get a US console.

My friends went to Mr. Dynamic last Thursday. one of 'em bought an XBOX game and the other inquired for the PS3 slim price. I can confidently say, "yes". Mr. Dynamic sells it at a lower price. Kaya ako nabwiset kahapon sa saleslady ng market market.

Just texted Percey last night. The US PS3 Slim is selling at 17390. It's 16500 for cash purchases. Two week warranty on parts and 6 months service warranty.

I was surprised at the price increase. I wonder how much Datablitz is selling their US Slim.

 :o hanep sa increase. maririnig na naman natin yung common phrase, "nagtaas kase yung suppliers." Oh well, next year na lang ulit after holidays para bumaba prices. Hirap kase bumili knowing they've sold it a lot cheaper before - and with mass-produced technology, prices are bound to go down and never up. baka next year may bundled games pa for almost the same amount.

Is there a difference (feature or compatibility wise) between the HK and US PS3 Slim that would merit a higher price for the US version?

not really other than PS1 disc and DVD region compatibility. I guess the US version is just more expensive to import.

I called Mr. Dynamic yesterday afternoon to check on prices and apparently, the price difference between i-Tech and Mr. Dynamic is huge. I forgot how much the US version is selling for (I think around 16,500) but the Asian version can be had for 14,800. They told me that I won't be able to get the price they offer at i-Tech. I guess the price difference reflects the higher overhead cost of maintaining a mall branch.

Fortunately, I won't have to worry about where to get my new Slim because my sister surprised me with a US unit last night. I'm a happy boy. :)

Actually surprise gift ng sister ko from the US. I told her hati na lang kami sa cost and she agreed. But when I woke up around 1am, a friend of hers who just arrived for a vacation brought the unit to our house. I'm now playing the hell out of Uncharted 2 multiplayer. :)

overhead expenses should not be their excuse. look at the Datablitz establishment positioned just across their shop in GH.

Wow nice prices ha ... market prices really works pag may competition sa mga stores, i usually go to buy at GH kasi pababaan ng prices kasi lahat sila sa virramall same versions lang. 14.7k is a really good price, got mine at 18k pa mid 2009.

sana ganun din sa prices ng games, so far Data Blitz ako kasi mas mababa ang price nila sa PS3 games

congrats sa mga bagong owner ng PS3  ;D

bumaba ang price vs last year kasi bumaba naman talaga ang price ng ps3 sa US. Nagkaron ng price slash of $100.

yung region sir ay para sa PSN account. DLC. so kung ang PSN account mo ay region 1, mas maganda kung ang bilhin mong games ay region 1 din. Pero kahit ano pa mang region yan, malalaro mo pa rin yan sa PS3 mo.

My slim is autovolt even if it says 100v on the outside (it's a unit from Japan).  I found a japanese site where they opened up the innards of the slim and saw that the psu was indeed 100v-240v.

I tried it on the 220v outlet and it worked fine.

just came from i tech SM North they are giving the PS3 slim white colored for around 21K 3 months to pay, comes with the usual package plus external drive with 20 games, USB jailbreak, this is the best deal i was able  to get out of around fours tores I came to this afternoon, didnt give in yet to the itch but only becasue i fall short of the card credit limit.

I'm assuming it's the 320GB model. So 15,800 for the unit itself based on the post above plus 1000 for the USB jailbreak so the price of the external drive is 4,200. What's the size of the external drive and is it a portable drive or with power adapter? This will decide if it's a good buy or not.

BTW, doesn't itech offer jailbreak without the USB dongle?

Thanks.

its actually 160gb, if its only the PS3 itlswef the usual package, 14.800 i think but if i will get the package, it comes with the USB dongle, external drive with 20 contents.

so PS3 160GB model at 14,800 +1,000 (USB dongle) = 15,800. external with 20 games = 5,200 (parang mahal na ito). I think mas mura itong hard drive kay opmas.

Mas mura ba kapag sa US nagpabili (let's say nagpabili ka sa friend mo)? Pero wala naman warranty kapag ganun...   :(  Or mas mura pa rin kapag dito nalang with warranty pa... anyways, saan na ba ok bumili, yung basic package lang?

Thanks!

Halos parehas lang ang price. Then warranty issue. Kung may problem ang unit mo, willing ka ba i-send back ang unit sa US?

Better get the unit here. Opinion lang po.

Question: I am not the upload/download kind of gamer, I just want to play. Merong 120gb and 320gb diba. Ano bang difference nun.. what's the purpose of the installed storage space? Magsisisi ba ako kunyari kung 120gb ang kinuha ko instead of the 320gb?

Thanks ulet.  :D

hard drive capacity, kung di ka naman nag lalagay ng mga MP3s sa hard drive or any applicable dowload, it dont matter, the capacity would matter kung mag join ka sa jailbreak bandwagon kase mas malaki ang capacity ng 320 kaya mas madami kang mag lagay na games sa hard drive mo

i got the 320 gb for no apparent rteason actually although 1 K lang difference sa presyo ng 160 versus 320 gb. if it the future i decide to trasfer all my MPs files sa hard drive, malaki laking capacity na yung 320 gb, by the way, wala na po yatang 120 gb na bago 160 gb na and 320 gb

Better get the PS3 unit from the local Sony stores.  It will cost more but you will be covered with 1 year warranty (more expensive by 2 to 3k).  Datablitz sells dirt cheap PS3s pero in most cases will not honor your unit's warranty or will give you a hard time before they do repair the unit (based on experiences on another playstation forum)  The PS3 is an awesome entertainment system and is tougher than an XBOX 360 but is not free from defects (YLOD, Blu ray malfunction etc...).  A good warranty should protect your investment in case anything happens.

The jailbreak thing is really a choice of the buyer but in case you are a gaming person being legit is the way to go. Its the only way to play online... free (to boot)  on the PSN.   Once you've tried online gaming you will be hooked. I've tried and i never played 2k11 and Super Street Fighter IV offline again.

sony local stores really sell expensive PS3 units.. additional 2-3k for 1 yr warranty (though other stores have warranty too) ? for me, its not worth it. unless you really abuse your PS3, it will not have those known defects.:-\

Most shops warranties are limited to repairs by their so called inhouse "technicians".  I have not yet encountered a shop that has replaced a defective unit with a brand new one.   This is the risk of importing sa HK or US, the sellers themselves are not covered by warranties and will not be able to return these lemon units to Sony. LIkewise, majority of these local shops do not have competent technicians that could handle your PS3.  Repair of the PS3 normally is done via reflowing or reballing and only a handful of technicians can  do this in Manila.

I guess bottomline is if you are on a tight budget and is seriously considering buying from DB or shops in GH, ensure that you talk to the store and make it clear about the warranty.

Hi... yes, you can upgrade your HDD later on if you want. I have a 160gb and plan to upgrade to 500gb soon. Madali lang daw but since I have enough space pa naman, I'm still ok with the 160gb. PS3 US and ASIAN version are the same in terms of games since games are region-free. If US version, it can only read R1 DVDs... if ASIAN version, R3 DVDs. Plus the controls are a little different, the X and O.  It's better to purchase here for the warranty. The package usually comes with one controller only, so you can buy another one nalang here if needed.

Hope this helps.  :)

Sir, if I may suggest, don't have it unlocked to play "ehem" games... mas maganda kung may online experience plus you can download add-ons with the games (disc-based) you'll purchase. You can go naman for 2nd hand games, marami nagbebenta sa marketplace or some other websites.  :)

We will stick with the 3.72 for the meantime.

Got mine in Datablitz. They sell the 320gb for 13k cash. Regardless of color. Other shops charge 500 for the blue and red versions. Some even the white.

I had the white one. Classy  :)

I'm planning to buy PS3 Slim 160 GB (BLACK) brand new.

Right now Datablitz is selling it for P11,450.
and another store is selling it for 15k but, 3/6months 0%interest

The difference of price is so big and they told me that its because of the Warranty.
If its broken "sa supplier nila ipapaayos hindi sa sony kasi hindi sila tie up" according to the Datablitz cashier.
Kailagan ko ng advice kung OK ba sa Datablitz bumili.

Sony store is selling it for P16k

I will check on GH if its much cheaper.

1. Wala ba kayong na incounter na problema sa PS3 nyo sa Datablitz at dapat ba dun ako bumili?
2. Im just curious if i could play pirated DVD's CD MOVIES on it? wala akong plano i jailbreak. :)
3. may benefit ba kung US or Asian Version yung PS3?

Just get it from Datablitz or Mr. Dynamic/iTech.
Wala ka rin mabibiling US version dito anyway. DB used to have US consoles, but only until mid-2008.

Warning guys, do NOT purchase US model PS3's as they can not handle PAL, even if the disc is region free.

This isn't really a problem as long as you game on an HDTV with an HDMI cable. PAL/NTSC doesn't apply to that anymore.

Hi fellow PDVD members. Question lang po, I'm not familiar with PS3 and I'm planning to buy one for my kids and also for myself. Can the 3.55 FW jailbreak model play 3D Bluray movies without any problem? How about 3D games using FW 3.55?

Please help.

I dont think there is a jack sparrow 3D game or movie. AFAIK

"Can the 3.55 FW jailbreak model play 3D Bluray movies without any problem? How about 3D games using FW 3.55?"

yes there would be problems. Also, you cannot fully utilize your PS3's capabilities if you will just JB it. sayang.

If you can buy 2 ps3s, I think you can buy original blu ray movies and games for it.

It is a problem if the region free Blu-ray from Europe has a PAL trailer before the film. The PS3 will refuse to play it leaving you with an unplayable Blu-ray.

di ba most of the new HDTVs are multi systems? if in case the PS3 refuse to play the blu ray, is there any work around like going to the menu and playing the movie directly?

Some do, some don't. It's down to the individual disc.

Well yes. For games it's not a problem anymore at 720p and up, but ideally you need Region A BDs. There's some risk for "region free" BDs coming from Europe.

updating it to the latest FW will not remove this error message. Sony included Cinavia in FW3.0 and above to prevent playback of illegally downloaded videos...

Ok so more for online gaming. But if you just play via the bought game. No disadvantages?
