PORTRONICS LIMEBOX Technical Specifications

PORTRONICS LIMEBOX

The LimeBox smart TV box is what you need to buy if you find yourself stuck with a brand new TV that is dumb in all sense of the term. This Android-based box can make your TV smart and also link it to the Internet. It is easy to set up and needs no special skills. Setting up a wi-fi on this device is also easy. The interface is clean and easy to navigate and it has the usual Google apps like Search, Gmail and Skype. LimeBox plays any video and audio format thorough the USB . The only problem we faced was that it cannot remember the last played point of a video unless you add a bookmark. Plus, the device does not do much to increase the sound, especially if you are playing an HD file. The Internet TV section has YouTube and Metacafe apps (you can add more from Google Play). You will need a wireless keyboard to do anything serious on the browser. The remote does not have any alphabet keys and we could not find a virtual keyboard either. The games tab has angry birds, fruit ninja and fishing water already installed, but we could not play them using the remote.

Reviews about Nikon D800, Sony W690, Canon 1100D Cameras

Nikon D800
The DSLR with the most megapixels in the world (36.3 MP) has the potential to change photography and HD videography forever. The camera has an improved 51-point auto focus system which ensures that every pixel in the image is sharp and crisp even in low light. With the shutter speed range of 30 seconds to 1/8000 and the maximum ISO range of 6400 ‘monumental images’would not be a problem with this camera.

Sony W690
The point-and-shoot features a 16.1 MP digital camera, 10 x optical zoom and has a gyro sensor onboard. The camera offers four picture effect modes, 360 degree sweep panorama, optical steady shot and intelligent auto mode packed into a small body. Now that is handy.

Canon 1100D
The Canon 1100D is a perfect DSLR camera for those who wish to try their hand at photography while looking beyond the pocket camera. It has got a 12.2 megapixel APS-C Size CMOS sensor and captures both RAW and JPEG images. The camera has a 2.7 inch display to view pictures and comes with a EF S18-55 IS II kit lens.

ENVENT 2.1 WOOD SPEAKERS Review Online

ENVENT 2.1 WOOD SPEAKERS - Ideal for soft music

In the 2.1 Wood Speaker, the woofer is made of wood. Envent says the satellite speakers are in a wooden casing, though it is not visible outside.

This stylishly designed set of speakers will fit easily with any PC set and take up very little space on the desktop. The really standout design element for us was the LED light on the volume dial which adds a new dimension to the speakers. However, at times you can get disappointed with the flimsy feel of the speakers, for instance with the cheaplooking pins.

The sound is soft and has a full bass without having any extra controls for the same. In other words, this is not something you should buy if your main purpose in life is to make life hell for your neighbour. But the set is ideal if you like to hear country songs
and blues. And, of course, movies. There is a on/off button at the back of the unit, which we thought would have been better at the sides or incorporated into the volume dial. The volume dial is smooth and increases volume without any of the noise you usually associate with 2.1 speakers.
