[REVIEW] Amazfit Pace (US firmware version) - One Month On

First off - this is purely a review piece on the Amazfit Pace fitness tracker/watch after about one month of usage. The watch specifications and many unboxing videos can be found easily on the net, so I will not cover them. Some background: I am a casual runner - I run regularly, 4 to 6 time a week, average of 65km per week currently. I am always seeking ways to run faster, but am in no hurry or in any sort of plan. I have no previous ACTUAL experience of fitness tracker/watch although I have been eyeing on the Garmin Forerunner 235 and Suunto Ambit 3 Run. The day the Amazfit Pace was launched in China, I have made inquiries but realized that it was only available in Chinese. (Although I AM an Asian Chinese - my Chinese sucks big time - story for another day). For launching price of 799 yuan, I had no qualms on purchasing it, provided it is available in English. Part of the reason I was holding out on Garmin and Suunto was that I could not justify the price to pay for a fi

Old PC Speakers? Re-purpose Them!

I think that many of us would have a pair of spare working speakers lying around. Maybe it came with the PC when you bought as a set, a free gift when you bought your laptop? Or a present from some time ago? If it is collecting dust, there are a few options. Donate them - many others will appreciate the speakers Use as LCD/LED TV speakers - most panel TVs are so thin today that it makes me wonder who any decent sound can come out of its tiny speakers. Short of using an amplifier or home theater system, just plug in the speakers to the RCA or 3.5mm jack and you will have upgraded sound from the TV. Turn it into Bluetooth enabled speakers - this is what I did for my old pair of Creative speakers. (Is the brand still around? They were the creators of the SoundBlaster soundcards in the heydays!!) These are easily 12 years old. Still working good with very good bass! So I've gone online and gotten one of these: I forgot to take a photo from the other side. Its basical

[REVIEW] Monster iSport Achieve Bluetooth Earphones

Although the box say Headphones.. I think they qualify more as EARphones - don't you think? ;) These are entry level earphones in the Monster iSport range of wireless products. While there are no IP certifications, the box promises "Durable and sweat proof". It also comes with 3 different sized ear buds, but no pouch/case. Specs as listed on the box: What I did : As I am quite an avid runner, I did 3 10km - 12km runs within the week with the Achieve. Here's my take after the 3 runs: Bluetooth pairing went without a hitch with my Xiaomi Mi 5s Battery life is as specified (5+ hours on the box). After a full charge and 3 runs totaling very close to 5 hours, the battery level was announced as "low" The SecureFit does fit well in my ears. It did not fall out during any of my runs. As many of you may know - SQ of such earphones heavily depend on how well you can get it to fit "properly" in your ears. For normal earphones, I
