6 best gifts women actually want

Make her feel appreciated this season ♥️

Published

When people complain that women are difficult, it’s not because we don’t know what we want. Most often than not, we actually do. What makes women complicated is that what we want is usually something that we would rather buy ourselves: a pair of heels, the perfect red lipstick, or a little black dress.

Although what truly makes us happy can’t be bought, we’ve come up with a guide on making the most important women in your life feel appreciated this season. Here are six gifts women will actually want to receive and suggestions on what you can buy:

The gift of beautiful memories

When we take pictures, it’s not just for the ‘gram. Photos are our way of immortalizing special moments in life; they help us remember. Make sure the most important woman in your life is armed with a smartphone camera that can capture memories during the day and even at night like the Huawei Nova 5T. The phone has four cameras so she can take photos from different perspectives: a 48MP main shooter, 16MP ultra-wide angle lens, 2MP dedicated macro camera, and 2MP depth sensor. It also has a 32MP front-facing camera so she can take her solo selfies and group selfies with family and friends to the next level.

The gift of confidence

Jewelry doesn’t make or break an outfit; confidence does. Just like makeup, earrings can boost any woman’s confidence and make her feel powerful even on days when she’s feeling lethargic. Get her a good pair of statement earrings that she can wear either to work or to Sunday brunch with her best girl friends.

The gift of fitness

Motivation to exercise will always come from within, but one can achieve her fitness goals with a little help from her friends. Get her a smartwatch like the Huawei Watch GT 2. It has an impressive two-week battery life because really, who needs yet another device that she will have to charge everyday? It comes in a 42mm variant that fits women’s smaller wrists better. Not only will this help her monitor her heart rate and calories burned, it can also be her personal training coach.

The gift of style

The silk scarf made a silent comeback in the trend department this year, although we’d argue it never really went out of style. It’s a classic piece that elevates even the most basic of looks. Giving someone a scarf for the holidays is safe yet thoughtful. It’s a versatile accessory that she can wear not only as an alternative to scrunchies or headbands, but she can style it as a belt or tie it on her favorite purse, too.

The gift of me time

Women are nurturing by nature; we tend to put others’ wellbeing before we take care of ourselves. Sometimes, all we need is some me time and self care — a time when we don’t have to worry about anyone but ourselves. Get her noise-cancelling earphones like the Huawei Freebuds 3 to help her focus on herself and drown out unnecessary noise. Even if it’s just during her commute to work, being able to listen to music or her favorite podcast without distractions can make a huge difference in her day.

The gift of imagination

When we imagine characters and places by reading, we see with the mind instead of the eyes. You can gift a book about influential women, navigating womanhood, fantasy, or even a dystopian future — it will stimulate her imagination regardless. Getting lost in a good book is like going on vacation, only more affordable.

Today, a webcam is an invaluable piece of technology essential to workstations and gaming rigs alike. If you’re still shopping for a decent camera for your PC, Logitech has a new option for you. The Logitech Brio 100 is an affordable piece that can deliver quality audio and video for your needs.

Despite being a small shooter, the Brio 100 can deliver Full HD 1080p video for your calls. Plus, with RightLight technology, the camera can automatically increase brightness by 50 percent and reduce shadows from your video. You can also manually customize the video through the Logi Options+ app.

Additionally, you won’t need an external mic to pair with your webcam. It comes with a built-in mic already. It also comes with a 1.5m cable, so you can position the webcam in any angle you’d want.

The Brio 100 is available starting September 21. It is compatible with any USB-A ports on Windows, MacOS, and ChromeOS. It retails for SGD 59 and will come in Graphite, Off-White, and Rose.

Pebble 2 Combo

The new Brio 100 isn’t the only thing on Logitech’s slate today. The company also launched the new Pebble 2 Combo, comprised of the Pebble Keys 2 K380s keyboard and the Pebble Mouse 2 M350s.

The Pebble Keys 2 K380s is a lightweight keyboard built for portability. The slim design gives way to scooped round keys for maximum comfort when typing. You can also connect up to three devices simultaneously. You can then easily switch between these devices using the Easy-Switch buttons. Further, button customization is easy with the Logi Options+ app. The battery can last up to three years, too.

Meanwhile, the Pebble Mouse 2 M350s is also built for portability. The lightweight mouse has Silent Touch technology, which reduces the clicking noise by 90 percent. You can also connect it to up to three devices. The battery can last up to two years.

Both the keyboard and the mouse are available in Tonal Graphite, Tonal White, and Tonal Rose. The keyboard retails for SGD 65. The mouse sells for SGD 49.

Finally, the Logitech Pebble 2 combo — which bundles the two devices together — sells for SGD 89. The combo will also come in two additional color options: Tonal Sand and Tonal Blue.

For meetings and education

Published

on

Epson has announced eight new additions to its business projector series lineup in Singapore.

These latest products are designed to meet needs in both the business and education settings, providing companies and schools with higher quality video conferencing devices or tools for learning.

The EB-L260F, EB-770Fi, and EB-770F, for instance, display in both 16:6 and 21:9 aspect ratios to complement the content that needs to be displayed.

Meanwhile, the EB-L260F and EB-L210W can cover up to 300 inches in some distances.

The projectors also have a brightness display range of 4,000 to 4,600 lumens, so meetings or lessons can be easily projected across common backdrops or blank surfaces under different lighting environments, without the need to prepare a display area for projector use.

All products use Epson’s laser light technology, for up to 20,000 hours of maintenance-free use so companies can utilize the projectors’ life for a long time.

Interactive, hassle-free

Furthermore, Epson’s iProjection app allows users to project up to four devices within the same network. The app can also quickly change the source devices through a remote control function.

The 16:6 projectors have interactive functions as well that support Epson’s Graphical User Interface (GUI). This allows seamless collaboration between people through the display of toolbars on both sides of the screen.

If users want to refer to an existing document while it is projected on screen, the document camera can shift the position of the document on display easily.

Lastly, the projectors can accommodate a smart stick with AC power so organizers do not have to connect long cables for power sources anymore.
