Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 (Late) Review: A Surprising Package

Image
We all know that smartphones have become a necessity. Maybe back in 2010, smartphones are luxurious gadgets only lucky people can afford. However, as time flies and smartphone markets become more and more mature, the cost of smartphone decreases. Now, almost all people can afford a smartphone (there's even a ridiculously cheap smartphone in India. Google it.). Redmi Note 2 Official Shots Anyway, the proof of smartphone market maturity is evident from how powerful current mid-rangers are. Low-end smartphones also have become more powerful, with minimum of 1GB RAM and dual-core processor. I'm not going to talk about that. I'm going to talk about one prime example of how mid-rangers should be. Slick, powerful, gorgeous, and of course... affordable, but not cheap. That example is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2. Features in a nutshell Alright, I'm getting more and more subjective here. But really, guys, all subjective things I've said aside, I'm really impressed...

iPod Shuffle, More Colors

Sorry, You're Not Getting a New Design This Year... So much disappointment for the entry-level iPod Shuffle. There doesn't seem to be any changes made, except for the colors. Now the colors are brighter, and fresher to the eyes: Ocean blue, Mint Green, Lime Green, Purple, Bright Red, Silver, and Black. I don't know about color names... If you're confused, the header image is your friend :p No other significant changes are made, though. Still the same $49 price tag, same 2GB storage, and same earbuds. Nope, you're not getting those brand new 'EarPods'. Doesn't seem to be a great day for Shuffle fans... unless you're a collector ;) If you're rocking an old shuffle, would you cash out your banknote and get a new color? I used to want to buy a Shuffle... but Nano's latest update changes my mind (although I like the pitch-black color). If you want to get an affordable iPod, or just don't know what to give for your friend's birthday...
