Recently, I needed a new Bluetooth headphone to replace the current one which had died after 2 years of faithful service. After trying out the many models in various music stores and electronics malls, I decided on the Jabra Move . And the reasons for which I chose this, was price, performance and feature. In terms…
Looking for an English version PDF of the datasheet for ANA618? Search no further, here it is! 🙂 Recently, I picked up a few solar-powered lawn lights from a budget shop, to test if they were any good and what’s in it. Being a curious hobbyist and an electronics enthusiast, I opened up one of…
Introducing a very cool universal mobile charger/bank to all – the iWalk Mobile Charger. As with most techno geeks, I owned a variety of devices that needed to be charged on the go – for example – Bluetooth speakers, Apple iPhones/iPads, Android smartphones and all sorts of tablet devices. All these variety of devices means that I…
This week, I received my new Huawei Honor 2 Quad-core Android phone from the local handphone shop (MOBYSHOP) and I will be sharing some of my thoughts on this handset.

Once, I was standing on front of a luggage store, thinking what should be the size of luggage I should purchase for my trip in Europe. The next question was, two or four wheels? These questions were tricky. Following my “gut feel”, I went into the store, picked a large luggage (thinking that I could…
The Windows 8 operating system was the next brainchild of Microsoft. And the key message that Microsoft wants to tell us, is this: “It’s Windows reimagined and reinvented from a solid core of Windows 7 speed and reliability. It’s an all-new touch interface. It’s a new Windows for new devices.” I have a HP Slate 2, which is a slate device running…
Was looking around for a case for my new iPad 4G (3rd generation), to protect it, and also to turn the screen off and the iPad goes to sleep automatically closing a smart cover over the screen. Having seen some of my friend’s case breaking at the hinge due to prolong use and partly due…
Having switched to fibre-broadband, I have enjoyed the faster upload/download connection compared to ADSL. However, it presented a new problem for my home. You see, the Wifi router used to be in my study, and all the PCs/notebook had the best connection in the study room. However, now that the Wifi router/home gateway is now…
