If you are visiting Singapore as a tourist or for a business trip and intending to buy mobile phones, gadgets, computers or computer related components, this blog post is for you. Hopefully you will stumble upon this blog post via Google before you actually visited Singapore.
2 years ago I bought the MicroSIM Cutter and this time round I am buying the NanoSIM Cutter also from Deal Extreme. Both the previous MicroSIM Cutter and this NanoSIM Cutter are made by NOOSY.
It cost US$6.60 (S$8) which free shipping to Singapore. Ordered on the 6th November 2012 and I got it on the 28th November 2012.
The official price of the Nokia Lumia 820 will be S$699 (without contract) and in terms of colors, the Nokia Lumia 820 will be available in Black or White and the wireless charging shell covers are available in white, black, cyan, red or yellow.
It utilizes the new 802.11ac wireless technology (which is still under development) that allows you to have gigabit wireless speed. Most AC routers in the market right now is capable of a theoretical maximum speed of 1.3Gbps (3 x 433.3Mbps streams with 80MHz channels).
The highly anticipated successor to Asus PadFone 1, the Asus PadFone 2 will be available for sale in Singapore from 22nd November 2012 (this coming Thursday) at authorised Asus retailers and StarHub Shops (looks like it is exclusive for StarHub).
It is being distributed by Trek 2000 (makers of Thumbdrive) in Singapore and is retailing for S$100+. Since Trek don’t enforce a Recommended Retail Pricing (RRP) model to the dealers, I can’t give you an official pricing. Right now only 1 capacity is available which is the 8GB.
Always wanted to play with NFC tags to see how some tasks can be automated.
I am using iPhone 5 which does not comes with NFC capability, but for my work phone, I am using the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (LTE) which does come with NFC capability. Samsung has it’s own brand of NFC Tags called Samsung TecTiles, but unfortunately it will not be available in Singapore till mid-December 2012.
*UPDATE* The official retail price of StarCraft 2: Heart Of The Swarm in Singapore will be S$49.90 and in Malaysia, it will be MYR125. There will be a Licence2Play exclusive pre-order event at Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre, Hall E, from 7th till 9th December 2012. Singapore will be launching 1 day earlier, on the 11th March 2013, and the Battle.net SEA servers will go live from 7pm on the same day.
StarCraft 2: Heart Of The Swarm will be launching next year, on the 12th March 2013. The retail box version and digital download version will be available for US$39.99 (S$49), the collector’s edition will be available for US$79.99 (S$98).

Happy 28th birthday my dearest wifey! I did not get any present for you this year, unless you do count the Pixel Ruler that I bought for you last month as a present! I will put in more effort next year =p
Bought the Apple Lightning to Micro USB Adapter from Apple Online Store (Singapore) for S$28. Initially it was only available in Europe as in Europe if you are selling mobile phones, it has to come with Micro USB connectivity. But last Saturday, in a surprise move by Apple, they decided to make it available for all.
