Previously, i have used those phone holder with a suction pad that is attached to the windscreen. They tend to fall off when going across rough terrain (like a train track), which brings about much inconvenience and would be a safety concern. Other phone holders have their pluses and minuses.

I have previously recommended this Korean cordless vacuum cleaner, but now that i have tried a Chinese one powered by Lithium battery, i’d say the Chinese one wins hands down.

I came across these while looking through earphones sold on Amazon, and there are just so many of them (90% Chinese products)! These ones … [Read more…]
