Apple Watch 49mm Natural Titanium Milanese Loop retails for S$279 and if you are on Apple Corporate Employee Purchase Program (EPP), the price drops to S$250.70, essentially giving about 10% discount. Sadly, neither Lazada nor Shopee-authorized Apple stores sell it; otherwise, it will be cheaper than EPP.

There are two colors to the Apple Watch 49mm Titanium Milanese Loop: Natural Titanium and Black Titanium. Each color is available in three different sizes.

Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer is probably an impulse buy because I saw an offer that is too good to resist over at r/RayBanStories.

Using coupon code 3008997, I got a 35% discount on the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer on the official ray-ban.com website. The discount varies depending on what model you choose.

There are two variants of the Asus ZenWiFi BQ16. Asus ZenWiF BQ16 (BE25000) and Asus ZenWiF BQ16 Pro (BE30000). Despite having the word Pro inside the product name, there is only one difference between both models.

BQ16 has a dual 5GHz band with a single 6GHz band, while BQ16 Pro has a single 5GHz with a dual 6GHz band.

Besides Benks ArmorPro 600D, there are two more variants of the Benks ArmorPro case. Benks ArmorPro Aurora and Benks ArmorPro Montage.

I only have the Benks ArmorPro Aurora because Benks sent me this extra case as a surprise.

I like my previous Benks ArmorAir Case For iPhone 16 Pro Max because it is solid and lightweight. But sadly, I am not as careful with my iPhone as I thought I would be.

Famous last words in that post:

TP-Link has two models of 10Gbps unmanaged switches. TP-Link TL-SX1008 8-Port 10G Desktop/Rackmount Switch and TP-Link DS1008X Omada 8-Port 10G Desktop/Rackmount Switch. From what I read, both are the same. The only difference is the warranty period and of course the price. TL-SX1008 is for the consumers. Hence, it comes with a shorter 3-year warranty, while the DS1008X is for businesses and hence comes with a 5-year warranty. Depending on the retailers, the price difference for both models ranges from S$100 to S$200.

I wanted a 10Gbps unmanaged switch to upgrade my house network to support 10Gbps speed. I intend to get the cheapest possible 10Gbps unmanaged switch I can find.

Benks has three types of Armor cases that are made with Kevlar 600D. ArmorLite, ArmorAir, and ArmorPro.

Benks ArmorAir is the second iPhone 16 Pro Max case Benks sent me. It retails for S$50.79 on Lazada and S$46.86 on Shopee.

This is the first year I have not bought the Apple Clear Case with MagSafe for my iPhone 16 Pro Max. The reason is simple: Apple Clear Case doesn’t protect the bottom of your iPhone. And usually, after using it for a few months, I will try to get another case for better protection.

Also, thanks to Benks for sending me the Benks Lucent Pro Case for my iPhone 16 Pro Max a week before I received my iPhone 16 Pro Max.

Years after years, I have always been going to MobyShop to get them to apply screen protectors after I got my iPhones. Besides screen protectors, I also sell them my previous generation of iPhones. MobyShop is located at 14 Scotts Road, Far East Plaza #02-52, Singapore 228213.

For the first time, thanks to Benks, I have a screen protector for my iPhone 16 Pro Max even before the iPhone arrives. Benks also sent me two cases for my iPhone 16 Pro Max.
