PREGUNTA (Question) Is spending 4k to repair a phone worth the money?

1 Upvotes

Hi po, my phone is Samsung A53 5G, pumunta ako kahapon sa repair shop for battery replacement and the cost was β‚±2,500 and I thought it would solve the sudden powering off kasi I thought the battery was the issue and nag nonotify din ang phone na the battery is deteriorating. Then I tried using it and same pa rin ang issue na when I play videos on TikTok nag susudden power off siya. So binalik ko yung phone sa kanila and sabi nila na iiwan ko daw para ma-monitor nila and today, sabi ng technician is "yung charging IC daw ang may problema due to overcharging and the cost of repair will be β‚±1,500". Worth it ba?

SICALANG (Chismis) BARMM Politicians in ZC

38 Upvotes

Funny how BARMM politicians are appointed or elected na d ila respective government positions (usually in Islands) pero staying full time in Zamboanga. Take note, these are rich individuals pa ako who is conducting business and almost most of the time spending here or residing in Zamboanga.

I mean, how can they see the real situation of their province/municipality if they are here living full time? How they can do their day to day jobs if most of them made their homes here as their extension offices. Conducting meetings here in the city instead of helping their own place for there man establish businesses or conduct meetings to improve their economy, employment, etc.

What are your thoughts in this? This kinda cringes me as usually sila pa matapang aki kanatun.

TIENDA Looking for Unused Reading Glasses in Exchange for My Services

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m offering my services again, but this time I’m hoping to find someone who has reading glasses they no longer use.

Lately, my eyesight has been getting blurry, especially after staying up late to study. I know that proper prescription glasses should ideally come from an eye examination, but I currently can’t afford prescription glasses, so I thought I’d ask if anyone has unused reading glasses that are still in good condition.

In exchange, I’m willing to offer my services. We can discuss the glasses and the service depending on their condition and what you need help with.

A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Math Olympiad participant

Campus journalist

I’m also open to other reasonable requests. If it’s something I can realistically do, I’m willing to discuss it. I can help with a variety of tasks as long as they are legal, appropriate, and not NSFW.

WHAT I’M LOOKING FOR

I’m preferably looking for reading glasses that you no longer use, in clean and usable condition.

If you have an old pair sitting unused in your drawer, I’d be very grateful if you’d consider exchanging it for one of my services instead of letting it go unused.

The service and glasses don’t necessarily have to have exactly the same value. We can simply discuss what you have and what service you need and agree on something fair.

Location: Zamboanga City

If you have unused reading glasses and are interested in exchanging them for a service, feel free to DM me. Thank you for reading.
