Acer HR274H Monitor does 2D – 3D Conversion on the fly
by Kyle on November 30, 2011
Is Acer the very first company to do this? As far as I know Acer is indeed the very first company to make this kind of monitor. It’s totally unbelievable that this Taiwanese company made a monitor that converts 2D – 3D on the fly. If you’re not fond of 3D then this might not appeal to you but at 27-inch I bet gamers are aiming for this one to have a different gaming experience. Enthusiasts for sure will get this one instead of purchasing a laptop capable of 3D gaming in a much higher price tag. Well the Acer HR274H does not come cheap but at 27-inch then that would be phenomenal.
Asus Transformer Prime is totally tempting [Video]
by Kyle on November 29, 2011
ASUS never ceases to amaze me, once again they innovated and improved the upcoming ASUS Transformer Prime. Judging from the looks of the video I can say that it’s really tempting if you want something to indulge this Christmas. Though, I’m not a fan of tablet because it’s very limiting for a power user like me, I find it interesting because portability matters much for someone who’s lazy enough to boot laptop and reach out for a netbook early in the morning.
Android Ice Cream Sandwich coming to LG Phones but…
by Kyle on November 28, 2011
You heard it, LG Global will be releasing it’s ice cream sandwich update (2.4) to it’s top of the line phones. Quite happy and disappointing since not all of the smartphones including the popular LG Optimus One will not be receiving the official boost of Google’s latest smartphone OS.
Acer Liquid Express – now NFC capable
by Kyle on November 28, 2011
Not too sure about the Acer Liquid Express if it will be released locally but I’m quite optimistic that it will be in a few months time. It’s not the best of the hardware as you might expect but it will surely work. Compared to Samsung Galaxy Y the Acer Liquid Express wins over technical specs but when it comes to easy marketing then you bet the Galaxy Y is no contest – a winner. Quantitatively looking I’d say that Acer is not the best seller in smartphone business so why is Acer persistent in manufacturing smartphone’s anyway? Let’s just hope that this will come on a affordable price tag.
Kindle Fire and iPad 2 comparison chart
by Kyle on November 26, 2011
The chart’s from Amazon website and it simple highlights one of the strengths of Kindle Fire. Too bad it won’t be available here in the Philippines as far as I know unless miracles happen then you’ll be getting the tablet at a very low price for a dual core phone. Just like ebook readers from Amazon who didn’t make it here officially the only way to get one is through grey market.
Galaxy Nexus Volume issue to be fixed by a Google patch
by Kyle on November 25, 2011
Update 12/01/2011: Google silently rolls out a patch on the volume issue bug on some Galaxy Nexus Owners.
Yes, you’ve heard it guys! Google is currently working on a fix right now to the recently found bug about the volume issue and they will be rolling out an update to fix the annoying volume problem when switching cellular signals. This just proves that it’s not about a hardware problem but more of a software glitch.
Lenovo IdeaPad s205 an e450 goodie
by Kyle on November 23, 2011
I still prefer a netbook over a tablet and that’s because it gives you a more powerful computing device to be more productive in doing your work. It depends of course in your needs but in general people will pick netbooks over tablet if they’re out of budget and want to run Microsoft Office Applications for personal and work reasons. Lenovo’s IdeaPad s205 is one of the better options out there if you’re looking for one and it’s powered with an e450 AMD processor.
Samsung’s New Commercial Hits Apple Fanboys
by Kyle on November 23, 2011
It may not be the same case here in the Philippines but it will surely hit some of the Apple fanboys who’s expecting a huge revamp to the looks and aesthetics of Apple’s upcoming release of it’s iPhone 4S in the country. As most of the popular bloggers say, it’s a huge disappointment for Apple fans for keeping the form factor the same. Here’s a commercial from Samsung USA, I expect a couple of dislikes in the original youtube video but it seems that truth hurts for the fans.
Kingston Wi Drive portable wireless HDD
by Kyle on November 23, 2011
Just when Seagate’s Wireless HDD was introduce, Kingston was there for it’s very own Wi Drive which is also one of the Wireless HDDs around. I was thinking that this is definitely be another competition but a closer look at the two made me think that they’ll most likely get a different share of the market. Kingston’s Wi Drive is much more portable while Seagate’s GoFlex is more bulky but provides bigger space.

by Kyle on November 23, 2011
If Apple has the antenna issue to their iPhone 4 then Samsung have their Volume issue to it’s recently released Samsung Galaxy Nexus in Europe. About 60% of the Nexus owners have experienced the problem according to XDA Developers forums and it’s a bad sign for Samsung’s flagship device.
Seagate GoFlex is a wireless HDD
by Kyle on November 21, 2011
If you’re running out of diskspace on your tablet then you might consider buying seagate’s satellite GoFlex. It’s one of the unreleased units of Seagate that will be available in the futue. What’s cool about the Seagate GoFlex is that you can transfer files through it’s own WiFi network so you won’t need to plug it out just to move files on your tablet.
RGC Client for playing DOTA
by Kyle on November 18, 2011
Update 11/28/2011: I’ve tried playing in RGC Client for 3 days, read my feedbacks below.
One of my friends recommended me to use RGC Client in playing dota. I haven’t tried it yet but I’ll find time to look at the unifying platform in hosting DOTA games. Currently I’m using GARENA to join publicly held dota games but I think I’ll try using RGC this time since I’ve been disappointed to pub gamers in GARENA ph.
iPhone Leads Blackberry in Enterprise Market
by Kyle on November 18, 2011
For the very first time Blackberry is now on it’s second place behind Apple in Enterprise Market Share. From what I know Blackberry devices is built mainly for corporate clients and it’s just now that extra functionalities were added to get a piece of pie outside their main niche. And just now it seems that they’re losing their ground as Apple gets the 45 percent of the market against Blackberry’s 32.2 percent.
