I've Been Sticking With Samsung Products Over Apple Products!

I always figured out that just because I could afford something doesn't mean I should buy it. Sure I could afford to pay for Apple's labor but it's pretty expensive. Then I started switching to the use of Samsung products from my laptop, smartphone and a tablet. Even if I'm sort of spendthrift (but not really) but I figured out that while I could afford Apple but I hate its labor cost. Pretty much, after I lost my i-Pod 5 I thought I'd go for Samsung over Apple. Oh not to mention, I use a Samsung refrigerator and my repair costs from Samsung give me extra money for pleasure spending. Then again, not all my gadgets are Samsung products. I'm still using Japanese products, American products and European products based on their quality. I use Hewlett-Packard products for printing and scanning. I'm a Sony Playstation enthusiast having owned all three generations (and still waiting for better games for the fourth). I drive a Toyota Vios because it's very...

I'm Trying to Buy a Reasonably Priced Samsung Tablet...

Well I'm now canvassing to buy a Samsung Tablet and I would like to examine my possible choices.  Considering I am a budget buyer, I would try to make sure none of my purchases are that expensive so I've narrowed down to these choices: Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite T110- Its specs are 7 inch, 170 ppi pixel density and 1.2 GHZ, 1 GB, 8 GB but I want one with a front camera.  It costs PHP 5,580.00. Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 T2100 - WiFi- It is a 7 inch tablet with a resolution of 1024 x 600... it was 1.2 GHZ, 1 GB, 8 GB memory.  It has a front camera though I want a black colored one.  It costs PHP 7,180.00.  So far in terms of price and GHZ this seems to be my ideal one including its resolution. Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3110 8GB-  It is a 7 inch, 1 GHZ, 1 GB, 8 GB.  It costs PHP 8,499.00.

The Smartphones, iPhones, iPads and iPods... Quite a Click to Old Folks

I had my thoughts of my 83 year old second degree uncle who had learned to use an iPhone himself or to my 66 year old second degree aunt who had learned to play Plants vs. Zombies quite easily with an iPad while we were on vacation.  So Apple did introduce the concept of the iPodification and iPadification of society then came along similar substitutes from companies like Samsung (two rival companies), eventually the iPhone (merging the iPod and the mobile phone) came which could click to older people who have more income yet lower learning capabilities.  So I had my thoughts on while it's pretty hard for my 83 year second degree old uncle to learn a laptop (think of Robbie's grandmother in Victorious) but he sure had a lot of easy fun with an iPhone he was using to show off some pictures =).  And also, I had thought of how my 75 year old aunt had a fun time with her i-Pad too, it was quite easy due to the touch screen features.  So what looks like it is that, old m...
