Considering the Philippines as a third world country with more than 90 percent of its population living in poverty, one will wonder how it can be tagged as the text capital of the world. This may be due to the close family ties among Pinoys (local term for its residence). A cultural value that Pinoys pride themselves of. In this regard, the easiest way to connect with family and even relatives to the farthest degree is through texting.
But for "masang-pinoy", an expensive smart phone is a big no no. Usually, their budget in buying a new cellular phone is about 5,000 pesos or less. Besides, it is not advisable to use expensive smart phones in public places because of pickpockets. As a victim, I now prefer to use a cheap one wherever I go.
More than 95% of Pinoys are prepaid users under several telephone companies available which offers unlimited texts to same networks. With this in mind, it is now usual to have several SIM cards from different networks to cut texting cost. That is why the masang-pinoy also prefers cellular phones with dual or multiple SIM feature.
Aside from being affordable, the other thing masang pinoy are looking in a phone is its multimedia feature. Pinoy loves listening to mp3 music so much that almost all jeepney passengers I see have their ears plugged with headset.
Riding with the trend nowadays and with the spread of free wifi spots, social networking use through mobile phones is also becoming popular among masang-pinoy. Before, only high end smart phones rule these feature. But thanks to the rise of affordable cellular phones with wifi capability that are available in the market today.
