White headset with microphone Class A



These are the kind of posts that I'm not sure if it’s just okay to publish.


 
Finally I bought a headset with microphone. I wanted to search around and find the cheapest yet decent headset. I also prefer something cute or fair looking one.

I've been glancing at stalls but I seldom find displayed headsets. It’s usually tablet case cover, ipad cover and other touchscreens' plastic container I saw. So I ended up going into this former Nokia known store.

I wanted to go into Cdr king but its two rides away and if ended up buying nothing, this day would become a waste. Besides I visited their website but can’t find a headset with mike unless it’s a headphone. I'll try to ask next time I pass by. I wonder if a headphone would work in a cellphone or a tablet or if it consumes a lot of battery given its huge size. Headset costs around 40 while headphone is 100-200 in Cdr king.

Last time, I came across this Muslim stalls who usually overprice their merchandise. The attendant showed me one of the headsets with microphone and if I’m not mistaken has a volume control. I saw it has crack. Hearing it costs around P200, I got discouraged and moved away. She said that I can "tawad" tough. But I wasn’t in the mood that time.

New headset
The sales lady said they only have replacement. I didn’t even know what she meant. I'm silly, right? That was when I got informed that it was not original. I chose the white one between the two choices of color, the other one is black. I bought it for P180. Bf said he also bought something like this before for 150. The packaging gave an illusion of being real.





No receipt.
Packaging says "Made in China".


How about you? Where did you buy your headset?
How much does an original headset costs?

Cheap Charger, Fake?


So I bought a cheap charger for my cellphone which costs around P150.00. I got no idea how much an original charger costs. In other stalls, they charged it around P350.00, expensive for same poor quality charger. I wonder why they’re over pricing it, especially those sellers who doesn’t give receipts.

While purchasing
I don’t know the name of the stall; I haven’t paid attention to that. However, it was referred to me by my Uncle. It was indeed a ridiculous story. Staffs were not wearing uniform but the place was a bit decent compared to others. The salesman was saying it was original, ho ho. How come a P150 became original? Worst was during the time I was assisted by the saleslady who seemed irritated that they got a buyer. She doesn’t even smile. Wait! The charger was instantly given to me without letting me try it. But I insisted, and it’s not working. Uh-oh. So it was replaced in that very moment.

The charger
It’s not a fast charger. Haven’t caused fire yet. Soon.

Last time.
It’s not actually working properly. Whenever I try to move the charger, it will stop charging, so I have to make sure it is still whenever I’m charging. Since I got no receipts, I can no longer recall how old it is now. Maybe it’s around two months if I would make a wild guess? As far as I can remember, I tried my very best to take care of this charger, but it really proved itself as substandard. Among the entire cheap charger I bought, this one was the worst of them all.

Today?
It’s dead. :(

Am I a fan of cheap products? Lol.

A lesson from a 300 peso bill



 A funny story or a tragic one. Lmao. Kidding aside, I'm just referring about an ill luck I encounter due to my carelessness. Yeah I know, I’ve been like this since the day of Mokong. I’m not giving careful attention nor do I show concern but hopefully this tiny event will make a difference to my manners.


Okay, what really happened? Nothing grand. I just bought a cheap cellphone battery. Sad to say, it will add up again to the hole of my ulcerated pocket. I don’t have any idea what the heck this battery is, what danger it may impose since it’s not original. However, buying those imitations is still passable in my case sometimes. I haven’t yet encountered any destructive burning. I noticed that the fake one has an almost similar span of life with the original ones like the charger of my laptop and cellphones who used to be destroyed too. Lol. If it is not as good as the original, probably it would be out of the market now? Or perhaps the law enforcer is now strictly implementing whatever they are enforcing.

new battery


The culprit. I used to text while I’m charging which causes the charger’s malfunction too. Since i cannot stand waiting too long I have this habit of halting without making it fully charge. I used to destroy lots of charger in the past, maybe around 4. The fast charger costs around 350php and that’s quite expensive. If my memory will not fail me, I believe I bought my old cellphone’s charger for around 150-250php almost 2 years ago.

I bought this battery in one of the stall but i believe this one is also available in bangketas :D They’re not giving receipts besides I don’t have the courage to ask. :D




The cover gave an imitative look with its glossy appearance. The battery cost 300 pesos (7.33$) that makes me wonder what’s the original price. I found 2 typographical errors at the back description and the rest is quite well. The first time I use the battery it is in its 1 level bar.


back side of the package


To see is to believe. To experience is to believe. And that’s the thrill of life.

This might be a presage for me to.. "Hey take care of your gadgets" a warning...


Lesson I learned:
NEVER NEVER make your battery super drained else the acid will die or you're dead. lol
