Techie Christmas Specials from PROMATE at National Bookstore and Power Books

We've all grown up getting our best school supplies, novels, references, manuals  and just  about anything from National Bookstore and Power Books. This Christmas though, they got even better offerings as they also carry well loved brand PROMATE on their shelves which most tech lovers have developed an affinity to, for example, ME.

Now I'd like to suggest you take a look at these nice products that they have especially the power banks which I have been using for half a year already. It has been serving me well especially when I need about three days worth of support in coverages I need to do for this blog. No joke.

The POWERPEAK-10 for example only Php 1,995. Aside from getting a fast charging powerbank, you will also get a free TRUESOUND-1 EARPHONE which costs Php 395. If that's not enough, they also have the POWERHUB-QC which costs Php 1295. The thing can even charge 2 devices and utilize type C connections at the same time. This will also entitle you  with the TRUESOUND-1 worth 395 bucks, then there's more!

If you are more of a sound freak then take a look at the Onyx Earphones which is priced at Php 795 or the CLAVIER earphones which costs Php 695 so you can get a FREE LINKMATE-U2F MICRO-USB CABLE worth Php 195.

Now drop everything that you are doing and head on to National Book Store and Power Books branches nationwide.

MOPHIE Battery Cases and Powerbanks

We said hi to the best selling battery case brand in the market called MOPHIE. A brand that has been in California and North America since 2005. They have been noted for style and engineered performance providing full case protection for phones and extra power for smartphones. They are the same manufacturers of the popular Juice Pack which I have also reviewed in the past. They've got a whole line of new devices that pretty much does the same thing and more. It is also available in 130 countries and is operating in California, Michigan, Netherlands, Hong Kong and China. I've personally used some of them and they've pretty much lasted quite long for what it's worth.

MOPHIE is the only authorized power manufacturer in Apple store so you will see them worldwide. They also have placed a commercial in Superbowl and now have 90% market share in the US and is gearing to increase now in Asia. There's a MOPHIE difference, they are triple certified and is the only one that's both a battery and can protect your phone. They do quality, and has priority charging as a feature which means it charges your iPhone first before the battery. That's smart!

They have different Juice Packs for every need. They also have it in different colors because we all need that in our life. They also have a waterproof and protect case called Juice Pack H2PRO for ultra rugged power and protection for your devices. They also have compact ones like the Juice Pack Reserve for those who would like it thinner and lighter plus it retails for under US$100. They also have Juice Packs for Samsung phones, particularly the S7 which people have raved about. For those who need ppwer banks in their life, they have MOPHIE Powerstation (in 3X abd 8X designs), Power Reserve and Power Reserve 2X. They have wireless charging available too, since businesses and individuals have set up infrastructure or devices for it, they're getting accessories made just for it. It charges on contact, they have different mounts too. Most of these will be available in Digital Walker and Beyond the Box stores and only range from Php 1,950 to Php 6,950. Take note though, these products does not charge phones but almost every device that have USB charging as a function. By the way, they will have USB C charging technology next week which is a good thing. It's coming people! Oh and it's also perfect for POKEMON GO when it rolls out in the Philippines, so get them while it's hot!

For after sales service, DIGITS will replace the device if it's under a year. So you've got them covered and safe within that period, that's re-assuring!

Power and Trusted Protection with Otterbox Resurgence

Still trying to find that perfect Christmas gift for your man? Well if he's an iPhone 5 and 5S owner like me, this might be your lucky day. This is the Otterbox Resurgence, one of the most spectacular social media life saving cases that I have ever seen. You see, if you've got an iPhone 5, the battery life problems will always haunt you, more so if you are using the LTE connection. Having an extra battery of course isn't a choice because iPhones do not have that option. I always lug around 3 power banks and it's a little heavy + bulky but I don't have a choice because my phones would only last a few hours if I don't turn off data every now and then.  

Otterbox Resurgence is everything you want in a phone case. Aside from the world class full proof protection you get from each Otterbox product that you get from their stores, you'll also have more than twice the battery power you need to juice up your iPhone 5 again. So if you think you're missing those important moments because your battery drained early, this might be the best thing that ever happened to you.

As the box indicates, resurgence takes its cue from being able to revive your device when you really need it. Aside from the obvious drop protection from having an Otterbox case, this has a 2000 mAh battery inside and also has smart charging capabilities which automatically stops to save batteries for later. It doesn't also take much time to charge phones because it is high speed, a feat that I couldn't do before on third party lightning cables that I purchase in phone accessory shops every few months. Some of them get broken right after the warranty period and it's a pain to get one that costs thousands of pesos too.

Unboxing, it contains the quick start guide/manual, the almost 2 ft. micro USB cable which you can use for data or charging and the adapter for the 3.5 mm jack. Then of course there's the case itself. 

One thing that I'm so amused about is the charging cable. Now you don't have to have a lightning cable in order to charge this device and can borrow your friends chargers just as long as you have USB ports on it. 

The adapter for the 3.5 mm jack made sense because once that you use the case, the thing becomes longer and you won't have a convenient way of using your headphones or earplugs since it'll make your device longer.

The adapter also doubles as a cable organizer so you can keep your earphones nice and tidy without having to move around your bag and tangle with other wires you have in it.

The small button on front is pretty special. The ON and OFF function only needs a 3 second long press and the thing is specialized because it'll show you how much power it has left on the case. The LED marking has 4 levels, it'll be less lights if you've got it used up eventually.

As for aesthetics, they still kept it thin and fit in your pocket just like when your phone didn't have it. It also fits perfectly and doesn't  bother pressing on buttons because it is designed for the phones you are using. It's also available in 4 colors, black, glacier (which I'm using), satin rose and teal shimmer. Remember, this has military grade drop protection as with other Otterbox cases too.

I also love the small opening for the camera because as you can see there's nothing in the way. 

Putting in my phone was also easy. Just open the lid on the top to separate the front and back portion of the case.

This is made of tough plastic material and completely protects the body of your iPhone5 or iPhone5S. 

The Otterbox Resurgence works by having the small lightning cable connected to your phone as seen here.

Connect the lightning adapter on the phone and it'll snap right on with a snug fit. Snap back the front cover and it'll look like a new phone.

It doesn't add weight that much and you won't be uncomfortable carrying it around because remember, it's like having an additional power bank on the case itself without you lugging around an extra power bank any longer. Again, once that your phone reaches 100%, it automatically stops charging and saves that to future use. I haven't seen anything like this yet in the market. The ones in the side streets probably also use recycled laptop batteries from waste in China so it doesn't last as much. Otterbox is on a class of it's own and you can't deny that.

If you haven't bought anything yet for your man or woman, I highly suggest you check out Tenkiebox and their kiosks + stores nationwide. All original Otterbox products are available here and more.
