YEELIGHT 2 in 1 Wireless Charging Nightlight Review

When I got my iPhoneX about a year ago, I was looking for wireless chargers - but ended up getting super frustrated about how long it took for me to get my phone to full power, I ended with a phone without batteries for only half a day (about 4 hours standby). iPhones are notorious power hungry monsters and if you don't have a Powerbank with you through coverages, you're pretty much useless in the afternoon when you get out of your house.

I understood it was still a developing technology and it wasn't perfect back then. But if I'm looking for something that would help me work the whole day, this setup just wouldn't work. A few days ago, this Yeelight Wireless Charging Night Light got us wondering, would it be sufficient to make me happy with its wireless charging feature? We started opening the box of course.

The night light was pretty simple, you charge it with the cable that comes with it, read the manual too. The light actually can be taken off the flat contraption. Switch it on and off to use either warm or white light. This is awesome especially when you want to play games in your phone but don't want to wake anybody up in your room. It takes hours to also run out of charging and you can snap it to metal surfaces because it's magnetic.  On a hallway, or another room, this would be perfect so you don't stumble around when it's too dark outside.

The Wireless Charging is obviously much faster than my old Qi Wireless charger and it takes a few minutes to get my phone juiced up so I can grab and go when I wake up in the morning. One awesome thing though is that it's very safe because when I placed keys on top one drunken morning, it didn't activate the wireless charging capabilities and it detected that on its own. Some other chargers continue to trickle and that would be dangerous if you get electrocuted or if it starts a fire.

Overall, this piece of technology is worth every cent. This is available in Digital Walker and OMG Feel Good Gadgets Stores nationwide! Go get them for your wireless charging phones before stocks run out!

Christmas Gift Suggestions For Techie Men

I know. You're probably reading this because you have no idea what to give that special guy in your life... and it's almost Christmas, you feel time is running out. Don't worry because I've got a few things that could answer that wondrous question, of what to give him when you think he's got everything. These gadgets are on top of the list of Digits Trading, the largest and premier gadget accessory store in the Philippines. I could say, they're on mine too so if you're ready, let's start!

If he's the sporty type of guy, who probably goes to the gym everyday or makes it a point to run every time in McKinley, BGC or Roxas Boulevard, then think about how he could measure his every activity. Check his pulse rate when he's in love with you with the ultimate health buff's dream called the FITBIT Charge 2. This isn't the first one so you're sure they've made tons of improvements in this gadget. It also monitors how you sleep and can get his data online so he could access it anywhere in the world that's got internet. It costs Php 8,490.

If he's the type who listens to really good music, treat him with this new BRAVEN 405. It's designed for the active ones. If you're the type who wants to go outdoors or just game for a swim, this model is Waterproof and can withstand accidental splashes if that's a problem. I've reviewed BRAVEN speakers before and they're really known for real non saturated sound, perfect for those who don't fancy super bass over the top speakers. Just feel good, feet up, and enjoy! It's sold Php 4,890.

Finding premium headphones that doesn't break the bank? That's easy with the BlueAnt Pump Soul. It costs Php 5,790 and can be enjoyed with full controls in the outer ear part of the gadget. It's also got a great kick stand. Brands are okay, but if you can get the same performance at a third of it's cost, why not right?

If he's the type who always takes photos, or perhaps is addicted to selfies, why not get him the BlackEye Pro Kit Smartphone Lens? It's got zoom, wide angle and even Fisheye lens in one pack. It's even super easy to use because you just have to clip it on. Now why didn't they think of this in the previous lenses no? I'm sure those landscapes, portrait and selfie shots would be better. They use a special lens so it's clearer than your usual lenses out there.

This one is sleek, simple, classic colored. It sounds good too. This is the Addon T10. I hear a party coming up and this would definitely start that going. It also uses Bluetooth technology so if you've got the playlist on your phone, just pair and start that ball rolling. It only costs Php 15,990 and is about a quarter of the cost of the other one. Then there's more!

This is the SCOSCHE MagicMount Power Bank. If you're like me lugging around the power bank and chord all around Manila when I need my phone charged, this solves it. It sticks to the back of your smartphone like it's magnetized. It can do your phone 2 cycles plus it's light weight. You can never go wrong with power banks.

You've probably been drooling off that BB8 Starwars Robot right? Well the company that made that technology just released this cute little ball with the same concept, but lets you program with your kids and even teaches you how to code. By dragging and dropping simple commands on an app, you can teach your very own SPRK+ to move like how you want it. I played around with it too, so fun! I want one and it only costs Php 8,990 which is actually a few K's lesser than the BB8 robot, but you can customize this one. This would be the ultimate dream toy!

Finding a better 360 degree camera? Look no further because this is Insta 360 NANO. You can make your iPhone into a 360 degree camera instantly by just attaching it to the phone's lightning port. You can also broadcast Facebook Live through the camera and that's just the beginning. Take those 360 shots smoothly and upload them on Facebook like a pro. It's the best at Php 12,990. This I want too!

If he drives a car and needs a dash cam, this does the job. It's the RoadEyes RECSMART. It's a social dashcam, because aside from recording your drive at HD quality, it also sends shots easily to Facebook, Twitter and can be controlled by your smartphones. It costs Php 8,990 and can be the perfect gift for your driver, sweet lover. 

All of these devices and accessories are available in all Digital Walker stores. They've got you covered if you want to get something for your man. Well, in fact, these are good for the ladies too. If you want to get me something, get me the robot ha-ha!

So what have you gotten your man this Christmas?

Digits Trading Corporation Outs Best Gadgets of 2015

This picture reminds me to ALWAYS have to look good. Having friends who do Fashion blogs takes a little bit of upkeep if you know what I mean. I don't really want to look like a rag when I'm with them and the best part of it is that I know I just need to simply use angles (as you can see by the fat guy on the photo). It doesn't take a genius to know they think about what to wear every day while I just put on whatever I have in the closet and put them on, choose a shoe then go. I don't even take the slightest look in the mirror and just bother what I am doing later on when I sit beside them, I just tell myself they're friends and they'll understand that when it comes to styling I don't have a clue LOL. It just shows that we love each other dearly because we're Team Suspects.

It's also Christmas Season. Just like me, you have to have your gadgets look good too Have you done shopping already? Have you already thought about what to give your man? How about your techy friends? Have you seen your phone lately and told yourself how ugly it is and always thought about getting it a new look? Well don't go anywhere further because the people from Digits Trading just made things easier for you. They've compiled the top selling gadgets and accessories from their stores and what better way to give gifts but to actually know what it is before you go out of your house right? I went with Team Suspects to check it out. It was also their way of thanking the media for helping them all these years. Digits Trading is the company behind super great stores like Beyond The Box, Digital Walker, Digital Hub among others that sell tons of internationally renowned brands which you'll see in a bit. Here they are in no particular order!

Digits Trading Best of 2015 by kumagcow

The Braven Balance Wireless Portable Speakers has rich warm bass. It feels like really good music and sound would come out of it without extras, which I think would be good for purists. It can also last for 18 hours as its got 4000 mAh internal battery so you can also charge your phones on it. The Urban Ears Plattan on the other hand can be worn on the street, by executives, even on your workout gear. I must say, this Swedish brand has impressed me even with their earplugs, the colors they have, and the quality of sound in their products. Sometimes it's even better than the one that comes with your device, they practically do it very well. So does the Coloud Headphones which also is very competitively priced. It's very stylish and won't bore you with just the old black or white palette. They also included on the list the Marshall Portable Speaker, it's quality is unquestionable because they are the authority. It's also available in 2 colors, black and cream. You would be the envy of the town if you have it!

They also have the Jaybird X2 Sport Wireless Bluetooth Headphones. It's got a nice fit, can get up to 8 hours of function. It's also sweat proof, so if you're thinking of giving it to someone who runs then this is the perfect gift. Soundfreaq Speakers on the other hand is designed by real music lovers and it's clean lines, modern look can always fit in your existing home. You can also get this to your small parties and it'll make your event a good one. The Boostcase Gemstone Battery Case on the other hand is good for those who have iPhone 6, iPhone 6S and plus. They've got the case to protect the hardware with the additional juice you have on the powerbank it has by default. I also like that they have the Nude Audio Speakers because I've been using one that's wired and it sounds so amazing. The bluetooth/wireless one is at par with that and they are known to be pretty good manufacturers. They also have the RHA in ear headphones for those who want noise isolation, yes that's possible and they've got it inside their stores. The Nation Union Jump Cables is just an answered prayer for iPhone. Let's admit it, the cables that come with our phones just have a lifespan of a year or so. I take care of it that much that I put stuff around it to shield it from wear and tear, still it gave me problems. This just does the job. The Magic Mount for tablets and phones would be good for those who drive, for those who use Waze or GPS too. To cap it off, they've got the ultimate selfie stick called MOMAX Selfie Hero. It's got about everything you want in a selfie stick, bluetooth connection, it's sturdy and colorful.

When you need to buy things like these, Digits Trading Corporation have Beyond the Box, Digital Walker and Digital Hub to cater to your needs. They're in leading malls and establishments nationwide. My favorite is the Digital Walker store in Eastwood, they also have Recession Coffee there which serves coffee and you just pay for what you feel is right. They've got more things in the coming months so make sure you follow their channels for deals and real thrills!

The Powerful and Diamond Like Designed Oppo R1x

Hello people! Let me tell you about the Oppo R1X today, this is a review unit that I got from them a week ago. I've been using it extensively for heavy graphics, social media, taking photos and videos. This one caught my eye during the Oppo triple phone launch a few months ago. You know why? It's because of aesthetics. I fell in love with it because it's one of the most beautiful handsets I've ever seen for an Android phone.

Upon unboxing, we got another box inside, 2 phone manuals that are in different languages, the phone, a fast charger, and their proprietary headset. 

The unit itself is ergonomically designed. It's very thin, feels more of a metal build but not too heavy actually. It's got a pretty decent loud speaker which you can use for music or downloaded podcasts too. It's got a bit of bass, so you get a richer and fuller sound rather than those cans you hear in entry level phones. Sorry I must say that LOL! Evidently, the people who made this phone took their time in designing unit very well. The best part? It's the back cover, dang it shines like diamond! Now why didn't anyone think of that in the past???

 The back camera is 13MP while the front cam is 5MP. It's got not time for ugly because once you open the front cam, it's already got it's Beauty shot templates on hand so you'd look pretty and handsome every time you take a shot. 

What I also like about the Oppo R1x is it's ability to get personalized. You can design your own exclusive space if you would like to highlight a particular app in just one area. Aside from that, they've also got an exclusive Theme Store where you can pick your favorite layouts if you want your phone to look unique, you are in total control! They're using ColorOS 2.0.1 UI (Android Kitkat) which would fit perfectly with any personality, they did a very good job in the systems area too. You've got 16M colors on the screen since it's IPS LCD Capacitive. Movies and videos are clean because you can also see it in a 720 x 1280 pixel screen.

You also have full control of your camera, a very good feature I must say aside from it having clear and bright colors on photos and videos. Another plus is, I compared the white balance between this, my iPhone and a Samsung Galaxy Edge 6, the Oppo R1x blew it out of the water. The video in low light too, was totally impressive.

I played Hello Hero, in full graphics mode. This phone didn't get as hot like the other Android phones I used to. Aside from that, it's not a battery hog and can last a pretty long time. Standby time is stellar, talk hours with heavy Internet usage can do about a whole work day.

Aside from that, the quick menu almost had everything on it. Just one press and you'll get the function you need, expanded, all in one place. If that isn't convenient, I don't know what is.

The Oppo R1x is one of the most powerful, well performed Android phones I've ever held in my hand. It's priced mid ranged, around Php 16,000 or less in some stores; but if you're a fan of Android and looking for something that performs well, the R1x can get you the quality you want in a phone. Worthy to buy? Absolutely. It's gorgeous, it's well powered in graphics and have tons of internal storage. How can you not love that?
