HONOR X8c Review

The HONOR X8c came from a line of smartphones with humble specs priced below Php10,000. But now, the series is punching above its weight class. Now that it sits in a higher price bracket, expect much improved specs and features for the X8c. But are those upgrades enough to justify the series’ move to leave its past market? Or is it better if they stayed? We’ll find out in our HONOR X8c review.

Xbox-Game-Pass-price-hike-Standard-tier

Major updates are coming to Xbox Game Pass subscription prices and tiers this 2024.

The company notified Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers that their monthly fee will cost USD19.99 starting September 12, 2024. That’s a USD3.00 price increase from the current USD16.99 monthly subscription fee.

Meanwhile, the PC Game Pass subscription is also getting a price hike of USD11.99 starting September from the current price of USD9.99. This is terrible news even for subscribers in the Philippines as the current Php119/mo local price will increase to Php175/mo once the changes take effect.

Microsoft will also launch a new Xbox Game Pass Standard subscription tier. It will cost USD14.99 (~Php875) per month for the new users and won’t come with day-one titles. Existing users can still use their Xbox Game Pass for Console subscriptions.

The new Standard tier gains online console multiplayer, which the Xbox Game Pass for Console didn’t have.

Current subscribers of the Xbox Game Pass for Console can stack for up to 13 months from September 18, but it will not affect existing stacks.
