TP-Link 8-Port 10G Desktop/Rackmount Switch (TL-SX1008)

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 Lucent Pro Case For iPhone 16 Pro Max

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.

Benks GlassWarrior Sapphire Screen Protector For 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.

Youtooz Collectibles: Futurama Take My Money Fry

Since I like to buy gadgets, the Shut Up And Take My Money! is probably my favorite meme.

I chanced upon some site (I can’t recall what site it was) post on a pre-order for the Youtooz Collectibles: Futurama Take My Money Fry figurine. And I told myself, I need to get that figurine. So, I pre-ordered it back in March 2024, and it finally shipped in August 2024.

After seven years with my Apple iPad Pro 10.5″ (Space Grey 256GB) (Wi-Fi + Cellular), it is time to upgrade to the latest Apple iPad Pro 11″ M4.

Since my brother frequently flies for business trips, he helped me get it from Singapore Changi Airport to save on the 9% GST.
