Changing Everyone’s Viewing Experience

-






I grew up where my dad would make us a schedule on who would do the chores. There was also a schedule on which subjects to study every day. For a kid, it may seem a bit harsh knowing that most of your classmates may not be experiencing the same. But, being a parent now, I have a better understanding of what they wanted us to develop – responsibility.


In the afternoon, we need to take a nap, as instructed by my parents (which, I often end up pretending to be sleeping) but, I would be watching the television while my Yaya dozes off. Saturday mornings was always a special day. I get to watch my favorite shows – Voltes V (Yup! My brother and I even had a matching shirt and shorts), Sesame Street, Care Bears, and a lot more. (Yes! I am old!) We were contended watching these shows and would sometimes imitate a scene- very typical for kids.


As time pass, so was the entertainment. In the early 80’s the Betamax was very popular. I remember watching about 5 VCDs every weekend with my mom. We would rent from a shop nearby. It was Php5 per VCD for overnight rent. Then the VHS player, then the CD player and it kept getting better.


Technology became the core of everyone’s life – be it at home, school, or office. Now, what is mostly the center of every home is a smart TV. Years ago, it was Sony who made it popular, then the rest followed. Everyone was “outsmarting” each other so more people would purchase their TV. The cost of the Smart TV has also somehow become more affordable.


Apart from the well-known brands like Sony, Samsung, and LG, you will also find more affordable brands. Shopping has never been the same since online shops started. Both Lazada and Shopee are taking a great lead when it comes to convenience shopping. Before, they were only known for selling clothes, accessories and home items. But now, gadgets and appliances have become one of their popular products.


Although we own a 55” Samsung 4k Ultra HD TV, we have decided to try a less expensive brand which we planned to have in our bedroom. Among all the other affordable brands of Smart TVs that I have seen, I got interested in AVision TV.


Our room was not that big, and so I decided to purchase the Avision 49" UHD Smart Digital LEDTV 49K788U with WallBracket. I have read the reviews about AVision TVs and thought that it was worth trying it. I get the pleasure of watching my favorite TV shows. I also get to watch great quality movies and TV series through Netflix. My son would always be switching it to YouTube since he really enjoys singing and listening to music. I am also able to watch other movies by simply plugging in my USB which is full of my favorite movies. (Guess what? I have some of my favorite kids’ show, too! SSHHH!)



Here is what I can say about AVision 49K788U:
·        The picture quality is great. I have not experienced any issues with regards to its display.
·        I have no problem with the sound quality, as well. I do admit that there are times that the audio may not be as loud as it should be based on the volume reading, but that also depends on how the movie was recorded. But if you want to have the audio enhanced, you might want to use a speaker. My son uses a Bluetooth speaker.

·        I am mostly online. And I also find the browser to be useful in helping me do some of my research. I got a bad eyesight and having a larger screen to read everything that I need is truly helpful.
·        It is currently connected to a cable box, and again, I have not experienced any issues with regards to the signal of local shows.

·        It came with both a TV stand and wall bracket. We preferred mounting it on our bedroom wall. Installation was a breeze!

·        It did have a warranty card included which says that they offer a 2-year warranty for both parts and services except for broken LCD. I think not all people know about this, nor are they aware that they also have to send AVision a scanned copy of the warranty card to them to make their warranty claim valid.



Verdict:
Avision 49" UHD Smart Digital LEDTV 49K788U is a wise choice for budget-conscious moms. Do not expect so much from a TV that only has UHD features compared to the one with 4K capabilities. For the price of less than Php20,000.00, this is surely a great buy for the family to enjoy.
Just to clarify, the video quality is also dependent on the quality of your internet connection. Make sure that you have a stable internet connection to have a seamless viewing experience.


I am actually planning to buy another one for my parents’ home. I have checked AVision’s FB Page and found that they are joining flash sales on both Lazada and Shopee frequently. So, I guess, I would just have to check the sites for their next online sale.

Surviving Christmas on a Tight Budget

How are you doing with your Christmas shopping so far? For sure, most moms have started making their list as early as June and take advantage of all the tiangee and bazaars that are scattered all over Metro Manila to find the best deals. Just like any smart mom, looking into the tiniest details has become sort of a habit mainly because money is not as easy as plucking fruits from their trees. Therefore, we want to make sure that everything that we buy is worth every cent that we spend. When doing your Christmas Shopping list, what comes on the first spot? Is it the gifts that you would buy for your family and friends? The food that you will be preparing for the Noche Buena? Or the Christmas decorations to have the real feel of Christmas. Actually, I have never been as vigilant as listing all the possible expenses come Christmas. But since we have been experiencing an increase in prices here and there, any smart mom should be prepared for the holiday expenses. Hold on

A Glimpse of Hope

The year is almost over and for some, it may mean awaiting a new beginning. But for some, it would mean an extension of difficulties and agony that they have from the past years. We could not instantly convince people to change their minds. But for us who believes that there is still life beyond our struggles, how do we help? When we know people who seem to be slowly losing faith in their capabilities to fight hard, what they need is someone who can listen to what is in their heart and mind. There is no room for judgment. All that there should be is a listening ear and an understanding heart. Depression can lead one to more serious health issues. And we can see how this has affected so many people- from their everyday jobs to family relationships. Learning to unload the heavy burden to a trusted person will surely help to ease the pain. We may not be able to instantly solve the existing problems, but at least we get to help them to realize and choose better options. 2016 should b

Daily Dose of Positivity

It's another year of starting anew. But what often happens is that we tend to leave our list/goals for the new year on that piece of paper and forget about it. When you look back at the past year, what do you feel? Do you feel that you have accomplished anything? Do you feel that you lacked the necessary time to be able to make a difference? Wouldn't you want to continue an unfinished project? You don't need to compete with everyone else. You don't have to be an object of envy of others. Value yourself more than what money could buy. Believe that you can do something. Believe that you are capable of making change. Aspire to always become a better version of yourself. When you set your goals, make sure that it is something that will affect you and the people around you in a positive way. Never be disheartened when people start to criticize. Instead, listen and understand. There might be certain points where you fall short and need to make just a little adjustments
