Benks Grand Headphone Stand is a headphone stand that is made for Air Pods Max. Two colors are available: white and black. I got the white.
It retails for S$53.72 on Shopee and $38.05 on Lazada (yes, I triple checked the price discrepancy). I don’t know why both platforms have such a huge price discrepancy. By now, most online shoppers are trained to check multiple shopping platforms for the best price before purchasing.
I bought the Ugreen Bluetooth 5.2 Transmitter/Receiver on Lazada during a flash sale for S$26.99. The usual price is about S$32.99.
Inside the box contents, there is a USB-A to USB-C charging cable.
Asus ROG Cetra True Wireless SpeedNova is a wireless gaming earbuds that retails for S$349.
Specifications

The number 50 in the product name means it uses 50mm dynamic drivers, which Shure custom-engineered.
Apple HomePod (2nd Generation) and Apple HomePod Mini is finally officially available in Singapore after more than five years of it being launched in the United States.

Rode PSA1+ is a microphone/boom arm from Rode. I got it from Red Dot Photo on Lazada during 12/12 for S$141.32. The usual selling price should be about S$169.
I was using a cheap China OEM microphone arm that I bought it together with my Rode NT-USB Mini, and it is pretty bad. You can only rotate the arm if you do not tighten the clamp; even so, the rotation is not smooth. The screws protruding near the clamp area will scratch your table, which was my deal breaker. Given the price, I would say it is ok. But in my case, I would rather pay more to get a quality microphone arm instead. So that is why I went ahead and got the Rode PSA1+.
I always wanted to get a microphone for the cool of it since I don’t do podcasts or streaming. The primary use case for me is just for Zoom/Slack calls.
Since I wanted to buy “something” for Black Friday, I decided to get the Rode NT-USB Mini instead of Blue Yeti because the later is outdated and still using mini-USB as the port.
During Shopee’s 10/10 flash sale, the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Generation) was only going for S$319 on their Apple Flagship Online Store. The store is an Apple Authorised Reseller (AAR).
Because it is 10/10, they are giving 10% cashback in the form of coins, capped at $35 or 3,500 coins. So I got S$31.90 (3,190 coins) in cashback for my next purchase. Shipping is an additional S$1.49.
Poly Sync 20 is a speakerphone that can be used wirelessly via Bluetooth v5.1 or wired via the built-in 70cm USB-A cable.
It has a three microphone steerable array that can pick up voices within 2m. It uses a 40 mm driver for its speaker and comes with dual passive radiators.
I am doing a minor upgrade to my Living Room. The first was making some furniture arrangements, followed by mounting two Sonos Play:1 on Sanus Sanus Wireless Speaker Stands.
I even upgraded all my HDMI cables to HDMI 2.1.
