This is a matter of personal opinion, but based on tests so far (using the iphone series, a few HTC phone, sony-ericssons and the like, even its same brand offering samsung), The Samsung Galaxy Note is by far the best Android Phone(or if I may be bold, the best mobile phone) in the market today.

For Specs Sheet (since GeePlease plans to always go to the nitty-gritty part, and considering other sites like GSMArena does a pretty good job displaying the details), then go over to GSMArena for the Galaxy Note technical details. (Oh and they have a bunch …

Lets me start off by saying this is the phone I almost bought, and is still at the moment, at the back of my mind, will buy in the near future.

The Sony-Ericsson Xperia Ray is an excellent mid-range android phone. The specs of this phone however if compared to the other android phones three months ago, I can say makes this phone also for the high-end tier especially judging by its looks.

Super/Smart phones of these days tend to be thinner yet wider with a wider screen, but for all casual users who want to join the foray of …

The Good People at YugaTech has been giving away a lot of presents to their subscribers this year with a slew of holiday-filled tech gadgets. This blog is one of my personal favorites when it was first founded long ago. Just this morning I was reviewing my post feeds on my RSS reader when I read about their contests.

So one of their contest is about the Flip Mino HD Video recorder which is now archived by CISCO and is no longer in production. In hopes of getting you guys some way to get a giveaway (since GeePlease at the …

Many people were dismayed as to my somewhat beginners take on the subject of Making their Androids Run Faster. Some failed to read the most important line of the article in which I said:

I argue that for people technically capable, the best method is to root your android. However that’s the lamest suggestion you can give to hundreds of people who just want to make their phone run faster.

Now to proceed on a more positive note to the people who actually know what the term “rooting” is for. Rooting is basically in a definition is getting to …

For several posts before this one, I have been reviewing the best deal external Flashes and was concentrating on the quality of the Nissin Lineup. From The Nissin Di622, Di622 Mark 2, and the Di866.

It doesn’t matter if you are on a Nikon, Canon and other camera system. This short summary will apply to you.

First for compatibility, you can now buy several mount adapters, and you can even settle for a lot of radio(wireless) and wired flash triggers and extenders. So, the first thing you should check is if you have adapters for your model, and check the …

I have been asked by my friends and family how to make their Android devices/mobile phones run faster than it currently is. I argue that for people technically capable, the best method is to root your android. However that’s the lamest suggestion you can give to hundreds of people who just want to make their phone run faster.

Don’t tell them to “root” their phone, they are happy not to tinker with the internal working of their phone. Just tell them the easiest, most “doable” way they can make their Droid run a little quicker. And that is what this …

As you already know, I do recommend Gary Fong products. Since I became a fan of the lightsphere series, I have always visited the Gary Fong website. I have recently discovered a new product from Mr. Fong which they called the GearGuard™ by Gary Fong.

To put simply, it is a way to lock your Camera Bag so that no one will steal, or find it difficult to steal the contents of your bag. It doesn’t need to apply to a camera bag only or DSLR Bag, you can also use it on any kind of bag. You can see …

This has been long overdue. We have put the Di866 through it’s paces as a regular user should. This review is aimed more at the regular consumer and hobbyists rather than the technically knowledgeable Professional Photographer (although you might still find this review useful).

Before the Nissin Di866 release, we have used and abused the Nissin Di622 which we now have several units of. We complained of the swivel head up and down lock mechanisms as total garbage. Di622 Flash head will fall down from a 45 degree position if we attached snoots, lightsperes and other moderately heavy diffusers and …

Last 2008 I have been looking for a replacement of my mobile phone.  I admit I am kind of a mobile phone addict since I change phones an average of 8 times a year. I thought to my self, this would be one of the last of my cellphone replacement for 2008 and I will try not to change phones for 2009, which I ultimately failed since I got a few more replacement after buying one from the store I am about to review.

KimStore is owned and managed by Miss Kim Lato, I won’t go into details about her, …

What is the Flash Sync? How do I use it? And how do I achieve a high-speed sync?

These are a few questions you ponder about after getting your first ever external flash. First let’s clarify the meaning of “Sync”. Sync is actually a shortcut of synchronization, and synchronization is the way two objects function, move, execute at the same time in it’s simplest sense.

Now Flash Sync is all to do about the Flash Shutter. The Shutter is like your eyelids. It closes and opens much like your eyelids does. However for the Flash Shutter, the wider it is …
