Mi Running Shoes

Aside from tech products, Xiaomi is also know to release home and personal products. One of the products that I bough is the Mi running shoes which cost only 995 pesos. It has only one design and only black color and without the bluetooth dongle that will make the shoes 'smart'. The shoes looks nice and has good quality. It is light and has a soft sole which is great for running and as a gym shoes. I am currently using it during my run inside the village and so far the feel is the same as some expensive shoes such as Adidas and Nike. I think for the price, it is a good buy especially to those who love running and hiking (even malling). So, why buy expensive shoes when you can buy similar quality shoes in much, much lower price! No MI branding but good quality shoes. No regrets there.   Slot for bluetooth dongle to make it a 'smart' shoes. According to the sales crew, there is no available dongle when I enquired. But if you really want the ...

Anker SoundBuds Sport

I been using Anker soundbuds sport for over a year now which I bought at Glorietta for 2,190 pesos. I been using it at the gym and for my daily commute. The sound quality is average as it is very lacking in bass. Battery is good which is around 5-6 hours for continuous use. One issue I had is the charging port cover connector is a bit fragile and can easily break. So, be careful not to pull it hard, especially when you are doing it in a hurry. For audiophile, I think this earbud is not for you. If I rate this (I am not an audio expert), I would say 5 out of 10 (10 being the highest).   Nice packaging.   Looks cheap but that's what you get for the price.   Extra eabud tips and some extras.   I can now easily misplace the charging port cover (not nice). Be careful when you are pulling the cover so as not to break the rubber connector. My verdict: 5/10 - sound quality 5/10 - design, some parts look cheap 5/10...

my-shoppingbox.com

Online shopping is becoming a part of life of every Juan. There is already Ebay.ph, Lazada.com.ph, Zalora.com.ph and other online shops that spread throughout the online world. Unfortunate for use, local online shops has limited list of products that we can buy and most are in low quality. That forces me to look to Amazon to buy tech related products, like ipad pro screen protector, apple watch band, etc. Still, the problem with shopping in Amazon is the limited number of products for international shipping. Shipping directly to Philippine address is expensive and Amazon will charge for tax higher that the actual tax rate (but excess will be refunded). I had a chat with my colleague and he recommended that I use my-shoppingbox.com to handle the shipping. I can buy items from Amazon and other US online stores and send them to my my-shoppingbox.com US address. So, I tried... Here are the steps to be able to use my-shoppingbox.com shipping service: 1.
