For those who want to get a hold of Google’s flagship phone that is the Pixel 5, you can do so for a price of Php43,990. Compared to the US pricing of $699(~Php33,800), the device is pretty expensive. However, SulitZilla, which is the same unofficial Google retailer that brought the Pixel 4a in the country, explained the costs of shipping the Pixel 5 from the US to PH. While they do offer the typical warranty and product replacement service for Pixel 5, we have to mention that you’re still not buying directly from Google. So, buy at your own risk.
