Disgo 8400G specs

Disgo DISTAB8400G 8400G is a cheap 7.9 inch Android tablet with some pretty basic specifications. Actually this is quite a rare tablet and it's quite hard to buy it as it is not present in most online tech stores. Probably the reason for that is because its hardware is outdated and therefore the Disgo 8400G is not very productive.
And here are its main specifications:

2016 BMW 7 series vs Mercedes S-class

BMW recently released its latest version of their flagship luxury sedan and now the S-class has some serious competition from Bavaria. Some say the all new 2016 BMW 7 series looks dull and is a step behind from BMW's sport heritage but I guess the brand's fans are exaggerating a little more than needed.

In today's comparison we will take a look at both the new 7-series and the latest generation S-class which is on the market for over an year now. And though these two look very different we noticed plenty of similarities, most obvious of which is the high level of luxury which is on extremely high level in both cars.

LG Leon - top choice for budget Android smartphone


LG Leon is one of the best budget smartphone offers these days


LG Leon reviewed We previously tested the LG Leon and our first impressions were pretty good. Actually, this phone happened to be our top pick for a budget smartphone for this year. It really packs a great set of features, without anything outstanding but all the basics are there and the design is good as well. As for the price, a smartphone that comes with built-in WiFi, GPS and IPS display and costs under $200, you just can't beat that kind of deal.

The Review


We already reviewed the Leon couple of weeks ago and I personally was really impressed with the good build quality (the phone itself is manufactured in China) and the overall feel from the device, it just was better than it's price sticker.

I also had couple of test devices that I didn't really need them after the reviews were done so I decided to place them in an auction site. They were literally 'eaten' couple of hours after I posted the ads. Probably it was because of the lower price that I placed or probably there is a huge interest with this smartphone.

Our conclusion after all is that the phone exceeds our expectations and left mostly positive impressions. Probably the only negative that I can think of right now is the form factor - the phone is just a bit too big for a modern smartphone, I am used to much tiny and slim phones. That might be a positive for some since the Leon is very easy to hold thanks to its bigger size.


Competition


Probably the biggest competitors for the Leon come from LG themselves. Smartphone like LG Fino and Bello are placed in the same price category as the Leon and they are also sold quite well, especially in Eastern Europe and Asia. Of course there are some good competitors from other brands and probably Nokia, Lenovo and Samsung are those who offer the best value for money deals.


If you are interested in the LG Leon please also check the unboxing video we made couple of weeks ago.

Which is the right TV size for you?

What is important to know when choosing your next TV - best TV sizes



choosing the right TV size
Many of you are probably wondering which is the best size when choosing your next TV. Nowadays there are so many different models and sizes that might be quite difficult to select the proper one. There are couple of major things that you may consider though and we will be discussing each one of them today.


One size fits all - not a good idea


It is very important to take into consideration the size of the room where the TV will be located. Smaller spaces would do better with smaller screens depending on the purpose for getting your TV. For example, if you need a TV for your kitchen you would be much better with a smaller TV between the 15-21 inch range and if you are looking for a new TV for your living room then you should get bigger screen of 40+ inches (well, that makes sense, doesn’t it).


Reason for buying / What you will use it for

Different people need new TV for different reasons. If you are in the search for a TV set that will primarily used for home cinema I would recommend getting a TV bigger than 39 inches (typically 42-47). Gaming TVs on the other hand shouldn’t be too big and exceed 47-inches.


Price

That is an important factor when shopping your next TV. Most consumers will make the choice entirely relating to their budget and the limits it has. For people with average income I wouldn’t recommend spending over $1000 for a TV as this would definitely affect their overall budget. Of course this part is quite subjective and it is up to you to decide how much you would spend.

HEAD Youtek IG Radical MP tennis racket

I bought the HEAD Youtek IG Radical MP tennis racket couple of weeks ago and after I played with couple of times I can say that this is one really good racket.

Despite the fact that this particular model from the Radical series is more 2 years old it feels like any other modern racket and it is worth the 100 Euros (I bought it with quite good discount).

The all new 2016 BMW 7 series - not what you expected

The new 2016 BMW 7 series is a huge disappointment for some and a nice surprise for other car enthusiasts


2016 BMW 7 series previewRecently BMW released their new luxury sedan - the 7 series. From what we first saw we can say that this brand new model is more of an evolution over the previous generation rather than complete overhaul. Unfortunately, the new 2016 BMW 7-series looks just like any other BMW that we've seen in the last couple of years, it is boring, not revolutionary and easily blends with much lower costing brands like Hyundai or KIA.

Specs and quick review of my new tennis racket - HEAD Youtek IG Radical MP


HEAD Youtek IG Radical MP is my latest tennis racket. I bought it last week and today I had my first practice with it. What I can share with you as a first impression is that this is definitely not a beginners racket. Even though it weighs just 295 grams the head heavy balance makes it feel a bit heavier and hard to maneuver.

2015 Volvo XC90 - SUV video review


Video review of the all new 2015 Volvo XC90 SUV




2015 Volvo XC90 reviewFor 2015 the Swedish car manufacturer Volvo decided to give a full redesign inside and out for its biggest SUV the XC90. Actually this vehicle is build on entirely new platform which will be use for other cars of its new model line up.
In today's video review we will take a closer look at its exterior looks, interior features and how it performs on the road.

First impressions


My initial impressions when I first saw the new 2015 XC90 is that it looks quite modern but also bigger and more settled. It definitely has lower clearance and I would strongly doubt that it was meant for strong off-roading when designed by the Swedish engineers. Actually I think the new Volvo SUV will now compete more with vehicles like the Audi Q7 and BMW X5 rather than with proven off-roaders like the VW Touareg.

Interior


Probably the first thing that will grab your attention when getting in the new XC90 would be the enormous display in the middle console through which the driver can operate with some of the important controls like setting the climate, using the audio/video features, changing car specs, navigation and many others.

Other than that the interior of the 2015 Volvo XC90 is very well crafted and typically Swedish looks quite plush and Scandinavian and that's thank's to the fine materials that are used to make it.


Performance


The 2015 Volvo XC90 is not a performance oriented vehicle and that is easily recognizable by the way its engine, transmission and suspension behave. The big SUV is now more of a luxury cruiser with improved fuel economy and a bit sluggish gearbox.

7 inch Android Allwinner A33 quad-core tablet deal

7 inch Android Alliinner A33 quad-core tablet deal and specification info

7 inch Android Allwinner A33


Today I came upon one of the ridiculous deals that's currently active in the eBay UK daily deals. It is about a 7 inch Android tablet with quad-core processor. And you are now probably wondering why I used the word 'ridiculous' and there is an obvious reason for that. The first disturbing fact is that now people are offered quad-core tablets for less than £30. The other problem here is that this Allwinner tablet comes with just 512MB of RAM which is way too low for a modern tablet, even if offered at a very low price.
