Tech talk: Android Apps–NOOM

 

   I’ve been recently raving about NOOM – a health fitness application. I first tried out Calorie Counter but found NOOM to be much better. I love the workout feature where it counts the actual calories lost when you do a certain exercise, like biking, stationary biking, dancing, etc.

Tech talk: JVC Gumy headset

 

  Quick post..

   My Nokia head set gave up on me a few weeks ago, so I thought of buying a new one, but had to consult friend’s recommendation when it comes to these things. Of course brands like Senheisser and Bose was recommended but of course it was  too pricey for my budget. Then came  JVC (thanks to Nicoy), and then came the Gumy headsets with different yummy colors.

   My friend Edwin said when looking for the best performance for headsets, you should look into the Hertz, 16Hz –  20,000 Hz. I forgot the explanation behind that, but the JVC Gumy I bought has this. Performance wise, really good, love the color, price? the pink one wasn’t available at Data Blitz, but they sell gumies for P495. But of course, I didn’t want to settle for something less, so we were told to go to the electronics boutique. Oh by the way, we went to Park square Makati for the gumy headset. Electronics Boutique sell their gumy for P790, but they had stocks of the pink ones.

         basic 3.5 mm jack – perfect for my phone, compatible with IPOD too

 

   Maybe next time I’ll buy the red, and the white one XD I can’t live without music, specially when travelling and working.

 

   Anyway, I’m back in Manila, Merry Christmas guys! :)

*sidenote: thanks to I am Bourgeouis for choosing me as your prize 1 winner

 

Till then!

Tech talk: Zagg Invisible shield

Non beauty or food related… For gadget geeks

Was at Megamall earlier, met with the BF for dinner at Brothers Burger, which will be my upcoming post. For today, let me share you what every gadget geeks, or owners should have. The Zagg – invisible shield. The BF bought a pair for his Nintendo DSiXL’s screen.

Zagg is the best by far for screen protectors, our friend stressed test it, using a key or a coin by scratching the screen with force and results? No scratch at all. Of course, this ain’t cheap either, prices depend on different gadgets. For the BF’s DSi XL, it cost him P800 pesos a pair. We asked how much it would cost for a whole body protection for the Itouch and they said it costs around P1500, not bad for the quality really.


  You can find this kiosk at the Cyberzone 4th or 5th level of Megamall

  And here’s a video sample (courtesy of me, using the NIKON L21 digital camera) of how they do their magic. They use a special liquid for gadgets, assuring that it won’t destroy your gadget.

I just posted this video as is, no editing, so really sorry about the noise.

I am actually saving an Itouch for the BF for next year, so mine will have to wait, not unless there’s a really nice Santa that will gift me a 16gb Itouch gen 4, you will definitely end my year with a bang! haha! And I will truly be grateful and take care of it with so much love (eee, I sound so geeky now)

Btw, we had to wait for 3 weeks before he could get his order, it was good timing that at the 3rd week we were here at Megamall. Also, there is a curing time before you can actually use your gadgets, I'm not sure if it's the same with all gadgets, but we were advised to let it cure for 24 hours, then there was some type of white plastic that was left inside in between the DSi XL, after 24 hours, they told us not to use it for an additional 3 more days.


Till then!
