The famous third-party keyboard for both Android and iOS is now under the roof of Windows’ parent company, Microsoft.

SwiftKey has joined the Microsoft family and together, there mission is to “empower every person and ever organization on the planet to achieve more” and “enhance interaction between people and technology.”

It’s been eight year since SwiftKey began its journey as a brainchild of two people. Since then, they have found their way to get into business of language prediction among mobile devices, both Android and iOS.

It’s good to know that SwiftKey will continue to be available for free on both platforms. And since Microsoft now holds the future of the app, we expect Windows 10 to be a part of the future of SwiftKey.

App in Focus: PreFIX PH

Daniel Morial

With the rise of Dual SIM phones, a lot of mobile users have at least two SIM cards, one for Smart (or Talk ‘N Text) and/or Globe (or TM) and/or Sun Cellular. And since the popularity of text messaging plus the competitive prepaid services, it’s easy to buy SIM cards and change whenever you want to.

If you’re one of those who has a lot of contacts from multiple telcos, you might find this app useful.

PREFIXPH-01

The PreFIX PH app is basically a dialer and phonebook app altogether. It scans and identifies your contact numbers’ network based on the prefix number. It also sorts them accordingly. Aside from that, there’s a built-in dialer for an unlisted number you’re about to contact. It’s a smart dialler that instantly detects the carrier of the number. You can even try to input every possible prefix combination to memorize the pattern if you have time.

PREFIXPH-3

That’s the main feature of the app, which is available for free. There are two additional extra features which you can avail for if you will purchase for Php46. The promo directory which allows you to save promo codes and easily send them for easy registration, and the group messaging, which, obviously, allows you to send multiple messages at once under one network — perfect for sending quotes, chain messages, and the like.

PREFIXPH-2

Gone are the days where it’s easy to identify the carrier of the number you’re contacting with the simple 0915 of Globe or the popular 0919 of Smart. Heck, my new postpaid number starts with 0977, which is from Globe. But with the PreFIX PH, it’s less confusing. It’s available for free, so trying it won’t hurt.

One of the overlooked computing accessory is perhaps the wireless Bluetooth keyboard. It’s a great companion for doing documents on the go with your tablet or even a useful accessory for your desktop or laptop. There are even a lot of knock-offs in the market but they might not last for long. Here are the top 5 Bluetooth keyboards we found for you so you don’t have to resort to the cheap ones.

Rapoo E6100

The Rapoo E6100 is a sleek looking Bluetooth wireless keyboard with stainless steel body for added rigidity. It’s one of the best looking out there and it should have no problem impressing others while you use it. It currently retails for Php 1,850.

Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Folio for iPad

If you have an iPad Mini or iPad Air lying around, you might want to upgrade its productivity with the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Folio. It’s already a folio case that you’ll be able to bring anywhere along with your iPad. Interestingly, both are available in Lazada for the same price at Php 1,615.50. Link for the iPad Mini here and iPad Air here.

Logitech K380

Another from Logitech but this time it’is a cross-platform Bluetooth keyboard and it will work on virtually any OS. Aside from that, it’s a pretty chic-looking keyboard with its rounded keys and quality build. Also, you can easily switch between up to 3 devices without hassle. It’s also available in Lazada for Php 1,990. Link here.

Logitech K480

Yet another from Logitech, the Logitech K480 is an upgraded sibling of the K380 with its bigger base and a universal cradle to hold your phone or tablet while typing. It’s even easier to switch between connected devices with a dedicated dial. It’s currently priced at Php 2,390 through Lazada.

Rapoo E6700

If you need a Bluetooth keyboard with a built-in touchpad, then the Rapoo E6700 could be for you. And like the 6100 above, it has a metal body while maintaining a slim profile. It even somehow borrows the looks of the Apple Magic keyboard. This one is available for Php 2,595.

There you have it. If you have any suggestion, please hit the comment sections below. There might be even better deals or discounts around that you might have seen.
