I received the Mophie Power Reserve as a door gift at the official launch of Mophie in Singapore. It is retailing for S$69 in Singapore and you can get it from the Apple Online Store (Singapore). Last I heard, this product is going to be discontinued, so get it while you can.
Mophie Power Reserve is a 1,350mAh power bank that weighs 55g and measures 72 x 38 x 14 (L x W x H) (mm). It comes in four colors: black, white, gold and red.
Mophie has all along been selling their products in Singapore via the Apple Online Store (Singapore) and has no presence in retails stores in Singapore till now. Mophie products in Singapore are being solely distributed by Hwee Seng Electronics and you can get them now from Takashimaya Departmental Store, EpiCentre, EpiLife, Infinite, Challenger and Digivue.
To celebrate the launch of Mophie in Singapore as well as it’s 10th anniversary, you get a 10% discount for all Mophie iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus products at the above mentioned retail stores. The offer is valid from 1st till 31st May 2015.
Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter which retails for S$110 in Singapore can be mistaken for Microsoft’s version of Google Chromecast. In fact, both of them are quite different. Despite their differences, I don’t think their prices should vary that much. So I am not too sure why Microsoft would price the Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter at US$59.95 when the Google Chromecast is only retailing for US$35.
Microsoft Wireless Display will work with Windows devices and Android devices but not iOS devices, whereas Google Chromecast will work with Android devices and iOS devices but not Windows devices.
Pioneer today announced that it is the first aftermarket car entertainment brand to bring Apple CarPlay to Singapore.
Two models of the Pioneer’s in-dash car multimedia receivers with Apple CarPlay are available, the AVH-X8650BT and the AVH-X8750BT.
Got my Personalized Coke Can from Coca-Cola (Singapore)’s Share a Coke (#ShareaCokeSG) campaign.
The world-famous ‘Share a Coke’ campaign has arrived on The Little Red Dot and for the first time in Singapore, Coca-Cola cans and bottles will feature nicknames and phrases in place of the iconic Coca-Cola logo, to inspire people to share a Coke with those around them.
I did a post before on Watching Netflix In Singapore With UnoTelly SmartDNS and today, I will be featuring an alternative to UnoTelly which is Unblock-Us.
Unblock-Us was started in 2010 in Toronto, Canada. They are the first company in the world to offer a DNS-based solution (SmartDNS) to give people access to content not available in their location. They strongly believe in anonymity and privacy and hence they moved their operations to Barbados in response to the proposed Canadian legislation which would have required them to keep logs on their customer activities for 6 months.
Microsoft Surface 3 will be retailing in Singapore from 5th May 2015 in two configurations: S$748 for 2GB RAM/64GB Storage and S$898 for 4GB RAM/128GB Storage.
The Surface 3 is the younger brother of the Microsoft Surface Pro 3 and hence it is less powerful and smaller. It is powered by Intel Atom x7-Z8700 processor and has a 10.8″ full HD screen.
After the move to nginx/php-fpm, the next natural course of action is to move to HHVM and php-fpm as a fallback.
What is HHVM?
The HTC One M9 will be available in Singapore from this Saturday, 2nd May 2015, for a recommended retail price (RRP) of S$1,008.
It only comes in one variant which is 32GB and it available in two different colors:
Fitbit Charge started selling in Singapore on 19th December 2014 and it is currently retailing for S$169. The Fitbit Charge is available in four colors: Black, Slate, Blue and Burgundy.
The Fitbit Charge is not meant to be the successor of the Fitbit Flex. When it comes to physical appearance, Fitbit Flex is smaller and doesn’t have a display whereas Fitbit Charge is two times bigger and offer a OLED display. Both serve different target audiences and that is the reason why Fitbit Flex is still on sale.
