Excellence in Sound: Move S Wired by NudeAudio

It was Green, perfectly paired to my current bed covers so I gave it a stunning portrait. It was another gadget at the palm of my hand and honestly, I'm already loving it! On looks alone, this portable wired speaker was so good that my friends and family kept on bugging me and asking to even buy it from me. I politely said no so I could unbox the little square one for you guys. Now isn't that nice? :)

The promise of having it connected to almost any other gadget with a 3.5mm jack was a treat, but do you see that mark just below it? Yes, that is true. You'll have 8 hours of pure unadulterated entertainment with this small squared wonder. Given it's small size, you wouldn't believe how much sound and bass it actually produces even with music from my iPhone 5, iPhone 5S and iPod Shuffle.

I was so surprised when I got it to play a couple of tracks. With the high bass requirement on some of my Electronic Dance Music albums, I've never thought that something would be able to cope with it. If I wasn't looking at the thing when it played, I would have mistaken this to be like a 300 dollar brand of speakers (no joke!). Plus the material on this rut looks indestructible. It was made to hit surfaces, get bumped, scratched and develop minor contusions if you hit somebody with it. 

The good sound must have been caused by this. If you've got great engineering done on the container that surrounds the actual piece that emits the sound, you'll have bigger and bolder music. I felt every single beat on my bass. I was contented with it, well no, let me rephrase that... I was astounded by it's performance and had to check with other gadgets if it performed the same. It wasn't a fluke, it was real and I'm digging it. Built to last outdoors, pocket sized and sound quality is divine, how can you go wrong with that?

Impeccable Design and Function: MONOCLE by Native Union

I was in the mood of getting accessories for my iPhone 5 and iPhone 5S so this arrived in the mail today. Right from the get go, I've always liked things that is a little fashion forward. When I held the box in my hand, I knew the MONOCLE by Native Union was right for me. It functions as a Speaker, Handset and Speakerphone all in one. I had to do an un-boxing of course. I immediately tested it out and see if it fits my phone. 

At first, I was a little skeptical that it might not be appropriate to carry it around like this guy in the package. Then again, maybe I might think of it differently when I try it on. 

Concept wise, I think I know why this is a little different. It's not meant to be worn like head phones, although it can function as one. Put it on your bag or pocket, it'll still be a good thing to show off to friends if you are the type of person who wants envy to flourish in your hood LOL! The body itself is made of spun aluminum whilst the inner grill is scored copper and plus a black aluminum casing. It's pretty sturdy and solid build makes it a tough cookie for travel purposes.

When I opened the box, it had a few brochures inside of it. The manual was also simple and available in different languages. The cords that came with it were all in Nylon reinforced covers. This make it literally hard to ruin or get damaged on normal occasions. Unlike the power cable of my iPhone5 that's about to say goodbye to this world soon LOL!

The cute MONOCLE also has this button on the side that can function to answer calls or drop them. It'll be handy answering calls so you get to do it hands free on speaker mode which I'll tell you about in a bit. Otherwise, you can just stick it to your hand while you hold your phone on the other. Private conversations on this gadget is a breeze but probably would need the help of your hand since it can't be hung around your ear. It is cozy though because it's softly padded by a cushion in the earpiece. You can opt to also put it on top of a table so you can share it with your friends or if you are in a conference call.

Magnum Gold Now in the Philippines!

These ladies were keeping something in their back. I could see it slightly peeking on the middle but they didn't let me check it out. For whatever reason, they asked me to go back when it's a little around 3PM because something big is happening. Something GOLD is appearing for the first time in Philippine shores; and no less than SM Supermarket is giving us a peek at what seems to be something luxurious and decadent... I was tempted to push these girls away but I'm a gentleman.. I had to find out later on.

I went in SM Supermarket to buy a few things for my personal consumption. I forgot to buy stuff for myself when I went to the grocery the day before so I went ahead and splurged on chips, plus Vanilla Coke and Cherry Coke. Oh I know what you are going to say! Don't judge! :P

The kind ladies on the counter helped me sort out stuff and I paid for it.

Then a person from their Customer Service desk approached me and said STOP! She handed me a golden ticket and said CONGRATULATIONS because I'm one of the few who would be able to get to taste tentenenen!!! 

 

MAGNUM GOLD!

Imagine rich thick Vanilla Ice Cream with a salted caramel swirl then coated two layers of mouthwatering, sweet, sinful and addicting Belgian chocolate. I already surrendered whilst listening to the ingredients being mentioned LOL!

Aside from getting that Ice Cream bar, I was also told that if I could open the vault using the secret code, I could win a brand new spanking iPod Shuffle or an iPad Mini (in the day's raffle)! Since it starts at 3PM, I did the next best thing to kill time.

I asked my blogger friends to come along and eat MAGNUM GOLD with me.

There's definitely more where that came from and we all enjoyed this new MAGNUM GOLD flavor since it retails at Php 55.00 only! Now, there's no reason not to enjoy it this summer when the heat comes back right? Aside from that, we went ahead and lined up to get our chance opening the vault to win the iPod Shuffle!

A commotion ensued when it was already 3PM and I even saw customer Erdy Tumapon win the MAGNUM Gold Ice Cream MP3 Player! Funny thing is... when it was my turn.... I entered some numbers on the vault and pressed the enter button.... and you know what happened?:D

I am now a proud owner of this iPod Shuffle! =)  I couldn't believe I guessed right. The number was XXXXXX hahah of course I won't tell you! :) I haven't won anything for a long time and opening this great prize was just the icing on the ice cream. I too struck GOLD in MAGNUM GOLD! This wouldn't be possible if I didn't go to SM Supermarket in Megamall! =) Thanks guys!
