I.T Show 2015
Hey, my lovely Readers!
If you haven't already know, I'm totally into tech gadgets
and I would like to share a few tips to shopping at I.T Shows.
For purchasing of electronics this weekend 19 - 22 March 2015,
check out I.T Show 2015 @ Suntec Convention Centre
Or if you just want a glimpse of all the tech offers / brochures,
you can visit the following link:

3rd Floor
Tech Tip #1: Don't spend too much time on 3rd floor!!
Reason being, TIME is precious & you will get to see them on the 4th / 6th floor anyways =)
4th Floor - Top Consumer Electronics Brands
Basically the center blocks are for the well known brands,
but a lot of repetition under different Resellers.
Outskirts normally for the main distributors with only 1 booth
6th Floor - Any.Other.Tech
6th Floor is usually for Hardware / Smaller Electronics

Do you know what these guys are doing?
They are doing what I am gona do~
Look at the pile of brochures I took. Info-overload!!
3 ASUS & 2 Epicenter brochures
even after I actively reject taking repetitive ones.
Tech Tip #2: Take the brochures & Get out
there's too much goodies everywhere & you need to digest~
Find some place nice to analyze for the best deal possible
then go back in & make your purchase!!!
Mentions of I.T Show 2015
21:9 Ultrawide Curved monitor is the upcoming trend,
but with Samsung's 27" inch at $498 and 34" inch at $1,698,
Note: Can't seem to find any trace of LG despite my desperate search.
BUT both devices' webcams are weirdly placed at the bottom of the screens.
Thus, putting me into a very uncomfortable tech situation. WASTED =(
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At this point of time, if you are contemplating between a few choices
or bump into any new tech that you're unfamiliar with.
Simply put, you are confused!!
and you will need the following............
Tech Tip #3: Buy on Sunday a.k.a Last Day!!
Go home, do some homework & don't make impulse purchases!!
If you don't mind the extra crowd on Sunday,
you can get the lowest price & more freebies on the last day!
This holds true most of the time for the bigger electronics, but don't put hopes too high.
*Note: some I.T Show Regulars will only swoop in on this day & go for the kill~

Recommendations of I.T Show 2015
Technology has evolved & changed the way our laptops handle day to day office work,
but differentiating them into 3 categories will help shorten your decision-making process!!
Portability / Functionality / Gaming
Today, I will recommend laptops for the Portability category,
especially for those that can be considered as alternatives
for the new Macbook that was announced on 9 March 2015.
Weight is the most important aspect & anything above 1.5kg is OUT!
Trust me, you wouldn't wana lug a 2kg dumbbell if you're always on the move.
Therefore, Functionality & Gaming becomes added bonuses
while trying to keep the budget of the machine below $1,300.
1) ASUS UX305FA-FC002H, the closest contender out there
with the main differences being 4GB RAM & 128 GB SSD Storage,
but I believe this is sufficient for any average user.
$999 compared to $1,788. #youdothemath.
Note: Or if you have some extra budget,
ask the salespersons for the upgrade version!
2) Although Lenovo YOGA 3 has a smaller 11.6" inch screen,
it still weighs in at 1.2kg with versatility of 4 different modes & touchscreen
that converts YOGA 3 into a tablet, allowing the enjoyment of casual gaming.
Note: I would love to recommend YOGA 3 PRO with its revolutionary hinge,
3) Surface Pro 3 is a combination of Tablet & Laptop, achieving the best of both worlds.
However, the Type Cover keyboard will be sold separately at $83 after the $100* off.
Also, I may want to wait for Surface Pro 4 that may be coming out in a few months.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Misc.
Also, I couldn't help but to notice Samsonite's fashion forward laptop bags
that are definitely FAR BETTER than the typical black ones.
If you like my photos in the recent few posts, they are all taken with Olympus E-PL7.
The camera is about palm size and fits perfectly into my daily survival sling bag.
I will probably do a review of my camera or photography tutorials if anyone is interested.

Recap of TechTips
Tech Tip #1: Don't get too excited with the 3rd floor exhibition!!
Tech Tip #2: Take the brochures & Get out
Tech Tip #3: Buy on Sunday*
Lastly...........
Tech Tip #4: Hate the Crowd? Head over to Sim Lim Square (SLS)
Sometimes, SLS actually offers the same deal as the I.T Shows
