Acer Iconia One 7 B1-730 Tablet in black

Hi guys!

I've got another review for you! Been with us for a year now but had no time to do the review :( It has been tested already and luckily had been used for countless times...
My husband and I bought this Acer Iconia One 7 B1-730 Tablet for our son, Jamir. We use this gadget in teaching him nursery rhymes, we also downloaded educational games and videos for toddlers so he will be prepared for schooling. So far, this gadget has been a great help to him :) He can now sing the Alphabet song, count numbers from 1-20 and memorizes his body parts, basic colors, shapes and fruits and nursery rhymes with the likes of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, Baa Baa Black Sheep, Five Little Ducks, Three Little Kittens, Five Little Ducks, Finger Family (his favorite) and a lot more...
Acer Iconia One 7 B1-730 Tablet in black at P3,749.00 comes in a 7-inch display with a resolution of 800 x 1280 pixels. Is powered by 1.6GHz dual-core Intel Atom Z2560 processor and comes with 1GB of RAM. The tablet packs 8GB of internal storage that can be expanded up to 32GB via a microSD card. Has a 5-megapixel primary camera for selfies and videos. Run by an Android 4.4 KitKat OS and powered by a 3700mAh non removable battery. It measures 119.00 x 198.00 x 10.16 (height x width x thickness) and weighs 320 grams. 
 
Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth. Sensors on the tablet include Proximity sensor, Accelerometer.
 
Its case is constructed of polycarbonate and comes in one of four colors. Besides the red color sported by our test device, the tablet is also available in blue, white or black. The backside is slightly ribbed, which helps the device feel secure in your hands.

Accessories includes a quick-start guide, a modular power supply and a USB cable. 
 
Warranty: Acer offers a 12-month warranty.

What I like about Acer Iconia One 7 B1-730 Tablet:
- the 7 inch display is just perfect
- Wifi and Bluetooth connectivity performance is good 
- the tablet's graphics capabilities are acceptable 
- WLAN module does its job reliably and well
- 8 GB internal storage is sufficient for our use
- expandable storage space up to 32gb microSD card
- the stereo speakers generate an acceptable sound
- I like the non-slip case, really convenient for my son's use
- battery can survive my son's 1-3 hrs usage {viewing videos, listening to music and games}
- with USB OTG capability
- affordable price of P3,749.00
- locally available (bought ours at Lazada)
 
What I don't like about Acer Iconia One 7 B1-730 Tablet:
- the camera is worthless, very poor quality images 
- battery can't survive for the whole day
- no 3G application
- downloaded applications/games from internal storage can't be moved to SD card :(
- modular power supply malfunctioned and became useless after 8 months of use 
 
Will I repurchase?
Yes, for son's use only but for my personal use... I will choose a better one like Samsung Galaxy Tabs or an Apple Ipad :)

I hope my review did help in any way for those moms who wanted to buy their children a tab that is within the budget yet usable...

Till my next post guys!

Human Nature 100% Natural Premium Deodorant in Happy Pink

Hello guys!

I just wanna like to share that since I got pregnant last July 2015, I've been using natural products all over my body. I wanted to make sure that my baby and I are taken cared of and that only gentle ingredients nourished my skin so that my baby will be safe and that I can avoid any allergies. I have been an avid user of Human Nature products ever since I've come across their products... 

During this pregnancy, I tend to be very sensitive to scents and food. I'm very picky and only ate fish on my first and second trimester... I would tell my husband that his perfume is very strong :) and that I can't stand the scent! Been through a lot with this pregnancy and I'm happy that I will be seeing my second baby very soon!
I've been using Dove deodorant spray for quite a long time na yet I had to switch to a gentler deodorant which is safer for a preggy like me. So I tried the Human Nature 100% Natural Premium Deodorant Roll-On in Happy Pink.
Get better, longer odor protection that can last all day. Helps to naturally smoothen and lighten underarms. Available in another scent called Powder Fresh.

How to use: Shake well. Apply at least 6-8 swipes to underarms and let it dry. Reapply as needed throughout the day.
What I like about HN Premium Deodorant in Happy Pink:
has natural antibacterial actives that help keep bacteria at bay
lovely scent, not too strong for me :)
armpits felt smooth after the deodorant has dried
no parabens and aluminum salts
dermatologist tested
expiry dates are clearly written 
cute pink packaging
affordable price of P89.75 per 50ml 
locally available

What I don't like about HN Premium Deodorant in Happy Pink:
I wasn't protected for the whole day :( 
I felt sticky and wet after 4 hours of use
my armpits didn't have any noticeable whitening for a straight 3 weeks use
too watery consistency, I preferred a slightly watery type

Will I repurchase?
No... 

Till my next post!
