realme is bringing Westeros closer to home with the launch of its latest crossover innovation. The realme 15 Pro Game of Thrones Limited Edition is coming to the Philippines on October 8, which is the same day it releases globally.

A partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, the special edition handset is inspired by the legendary HBO series.

The design pays tribute to the grandeur of the Westeros with black-gold styling. There are nano-engraved dragon motifs. Plus, the phone features the world’s first dragonfire-inspired color-changing design.

Daenerys Targaryen’s rebirth through fire inspired this particular feature, wherein the phone shifts from black to red when warmed.

In the past, realme introduced a color-changing design for the realme 14 Pro series’ Pearl White variant when it drops to below 16°C.

The company has not specified yet what temperature the handset should reach to unlock such change in design color.

Themed “Own Your Real Power”, the limited edition device celebrates values that resonate strongly with today’s Filipino youth. These are authenticity, bravery, and self-determination.

The iconic design, along with immersive features, redefine what a smartphone can be, allowing users to express their individuality and unlock their full potential.

Beyond its appearance, the realme 15 Pro Game of Thrones Limited Edition also offers custom UI themes inspired by House Stark and House Targaryen.

This allows users to further choose allegiance and bring cinematic flair to everyday interactions.

Moreover, the limited-edition gift box is just as collectible. It includes a micro-replica of Westeros, an Iron Throne-inspired phone stand, and exclusive house insignia cards.

All these make the phone a must-have for Filipino fans who live for epic fandoms.

It’s been ages since we got an upgrade for the Amazon Echo. These past years, Amazon focused primarily on the smaller Echo Dot or the versatile Echo Show. Now, it’s time for the regular speakers to get a shot. During a massive launch event, the company launched a refresh to the Echo Studio and the new Echo Dot Max.

First up is the Echo Studio. Launched in 2019, the original Studio came out to appeal to audiophiles. The large speaker was the first in Amazon’s lineup to feature Dolby Atmos and the ability to adapt to any room. Now, the Studio is getting a much-needed sequel.

The new Studio ditches the cylindrical format of long, long ago. Now, the speaker adopts the lineup’s spherical shape. It’s still the largest one in the lineup, but it’s also 60 percent smaller than the original. Despite that, the new Studio now has a built-in “high-excursion” woofer to improve bass and spatial audio.

Speaking of built-in woofers, the new Echo Dot Max has the same “high-excursion woofers.” It also has custom tweeters for the other side of the audio spectrum. Though we haven’t seen an upgrade to the regular Echo, the Dot Max might be good enough to replace the former.

Despite being an upgrade over the smaller Dot, the Dot Max is apparently good enough to encompass an entire room. We mentioned the hardware inside for audio output, but it also has a new AZ3 chip to better detect your voice in a noisy room.

The Echo Dot Max and the Echo Studio will start shipping out on October 29. The Dot Max retails for US$ 99.99 and is available in Graphite, Amethyst, and Glacier White. The Studio sells for US$ 219.99 and is available in Graphite and Glacier White.
