'Pop Talk' reviews three fun and affordable gadgets


More and more gadgets equipped with innovative and recently-developed features are released on the market everyday. Along with this comes the impulse to buy and spend on the latest and coolest devices available. But which among them are really worth your money?


'Pop Talk' host Tonipet Gaba, Pinoy Tech Blo g blogger Tetel Serra, student Moises Lawrence Manalaysay, and celebrity techie Will Devaughn reviewed three affordable gadgets that offer unique and fun features. Here's what they have to say regarding the Portable Mini Karaoke, the Watch Phone, and the Celluon Magic Cube Keyboard Projector.



Have you ever felt the need to have spontaneous karaoke sessions but didn't have the energy or the money for one? The Portable Mini Karaoke provides a handy version of what must be one of the favorite pastimes of Pinoys. This gadget functions as a miniature microphone that can be connected to smartphones, laptops and tablets. Once plugged in, you can use it as a mini karaoke!


For a gadget that is as light as a lipstick and as small as a lighter, the Portable Mini Karaoke promises hours of enjoyment whenever and wherever you want to sing. But the 'Pop Talk' reviewers think that the device could still be improved. 'Gusto ko siya because it's very compact but feature-wise I think it lacks features that I was looking for, particularly the volume,' Tetel said.


Final verdict: 3 pop points



Smart phones pack many of the features that we need when doing our daily tasks, but sometimes using an actual phone while doing something only becomes a nuisance. The Watch Phone is a wearable timepiece that also has the features of a modern-day phone. It has a SIM slot and can be used for texting, calling, photo taking, and video recording. The Watch Phone can also receive calls and texts directed to your personal phone once they are synced together.


The Watch Phone may not have features that are as advanced as the ones available on smart phones but it has the basic applications people would want to see in a phone. ''Yung features niya, ready na 'yung camera, music player, video player,' described Moises. 'Almost nandun na 'yung kailangan natin sa smart phone sa ganun kalaking gadget.'


Final verdict: 6 pop points


Celluon Magic Cube Keyboard Projector


Final verdict: 4 pop points
