DIGITAL LIFESTYLE

Gadgets Of The week

 
Motorola RAZR2 V8

What is it: The latest model in the best-selling Motorola RAZR series.

Who’s it for: The RAZR crazy.

Wallet magnet: Priced reasonably; incredibly thin design; relatively fast processor; large 2.2” QVGA display; large 512MB internal memory; 2MP camera with 8x digital zoom; touch screen external display for multimedia playback; first RAZR model with Linux-based OS.

On second thought: Smudges easily; feels heavy at 117 grams; no external memory slot; no Wi-Fi or 3G.

What’s in the box: Motorola RAZR2 V8 mobile phone; USB stereo earphones; rechargeable battery and power supply; CD software and manual.

Tech Times’ verdict: Once again, Motorola extended the life of its most successful phone model series, and we’re not complaining.


Creative Inspire T3100

What is it: A 2.1 multimedia speaker set.

Who’s it for: People who lack a decent sound system for their computer.

Wallet magnet: Low-priced; wooden subwoofer with separate volume control; nice satellite speaker design; good sound.

On second thought: Low-end frequencies are a bit muffled as well as thin mid frequencies at high volume.

What’s in the box: Creative Inspire T3100 2.1 stereo speaker system (one subwoofer and two satellite speakers); power supply; manual.

Tech Times’ verdict: It may not sound that great but the price is a complete bargain.
