Those who follow our Test and Review consumer blog regularly know that we like to share interesting deals and info about products that are on sale. 

These days we noticed that the ASUS VivoBook K553EA laptop is offered for a very decent price of under £500 as a refurbished item. The deal that we found on eBay is for certified refurbished which means  you are getting one year warranty. It is part of the VivoBook series, which is designed to be a budget-friendly option for everyday use.

We have previously shared our opinion about buying refurbished products and we believe this is not only budget friendly solution but also an environmental one and we do care about the environment.

Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A Full HD LED TV price, specs and review Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A  Full HD LED TV Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A review - today at our consumer blog we are going to take a look at one of the latest 42-inch Sony Full HD TVs which offers great picture quality and will suit best everyone who needs an excellent home cinema experience without 3D effects. Sony Bravia KDL-42W650 is still not very popular around the world and the reason for that is not the lack of quality or functions which this TV is fully packed with but because of the fact that the  KDL-42W650/ KDL-42W650A is mostly going to be sold in Eastern Europe and some parts of Asia. Of course you can find this TV in other countries as well but it is still not presented in huge markets like UK and USA.

The E16 Gen 3 I’m reviewing here is equipped with the Intel Core Ultra 5 processor, shared Intel graphics, and 32GB of RAM.
