Sudio Elva Off-White

The Sudio Elva, available in off-white and black, features Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) mode, rated IPX5 and comes with Sudio Flyg; a Bluetooth device, that acts as a receiver when you plug into any headphone jack, be it your computer, TV or phone. The Sudio Flyg enables you to pair any audio listening device to it, making this an amazing package not to be missed. Simply hold down the only available button on the Sudio Flyg and place your Sudio Elva close to it. If you're a travel enthusiast like me, this is the perfect companion you'll need to enjoy your inflight entertainment with. However, with the current covid19 situation, that idea will have to be placed on hold for a bit. However fret not, with this package, you'll be ever ready once everything reverts back to normal.

It is rain, splash and sweat-proof, which makes it suitable for workouts. You'll never need to worry about losing your ear-buds as you run, as the neckband will keep it from falling to the ground.

Securing the tangle-free wires is much easier than its predecessor, the Sudio Tre, due to the adjustable magnetic rubber nodes that are not only adjustable along the length of the wire but it allows you to securely clip the earbud cables together. The Sudio Elva comes with three buttons; which includes the volume buttons and a middle button that acts as power, play/pause, pairing (hold for 5 seconds upon power-up), and mode-switching and answer button. The ANC mode is activated upon double-clicking on the middle button. 

The following items are packaged within the usual white sleek Sudio box: 

  1. Sudio Elva Neckband earphones
  2. Sudio Flyg Bluetooth Flight adaptor
  3. "USB-C to USB-A cable for the Sudio Flyg
  4. "USB-A Male-to-Female adaptor" for Sudio Elva
  5. 5 pairs of additional ear tips
  6. Individual Owner’s guide for Sudio Elva as well as the Sudio Flyg
  7. Warranty card and information


It is indeed rare to see new wireless earbuds with neckbands these days, as many people are swaying towards the fully wireless ones. I'm personally not a fan of it as I prefer a wire-free exercise experience. However, there's many out there who prefer the ones with a neckband attached to it. If you're one of them, I would definitely recommend the Sudio Elva, especially at the price point Sudio is offering. This will definitely make a great present for yourself or your loved ones this upcoming Christmas.  

The Sudio Elva performed relatively well with pop music, which is my personal favourite and with the added ANC mode, disruptions will be the issues of the past as I'll be able to enjoy my favourite tunes without any disturbances. As compared to Sudio's many other older models, Sudio has definitely outdone itself and has improved tremendously over the years. The sound quality of the Sudio Elva is on par with Sudio ETT's audio balance on both higher and lower tones. 

Purchase the Sudio Elva now at $169.15 (RP: $199) and receive a black card holder worth SGD$20 when you apply "wireless15" upon check out. You may also purchase other items alongside the Sudio Elva, and you'll still be entitled 15% off your cart. I would also recommend Sudio ETT (https://www.instagram.com/p/CBKTWCnBpZH/) if you're looking for another Christmas gift for your fellow loved ones.

Plantronics's Backbeat PRO 5100


Plantronics BackBeat Pro 5100

Plantronics BackBeat Pro 5100 is by far one of the most unique pair of earphones among the rest that focuses not only on design, sound quality and battery life but focuses a lot more on the quality of the call instead. 
I've tried out a couple of truly wireless earphones and I've encountered the same issue of inaudibility when communicating over them under windy conditions. Therefore, it is superbly commendable that Plantronics added such an awesome WindSmart Technology" feature into this pair of earphones, which provides users with excellent noise cancellation on their voices;  crisp and clear communication on the go is made possible even under harsh (windy) and noisy environments.


Plantronics BackBeat Pro 5100's Design, Quality & Cost

Plantronics BackBeat Pro 5100, available in black, comes with a reflective finish to the main button, surrounded by a matt black plastic main body. It is embossed with the official ‘PLT’ logo and comes with a set of black silicone earbuds, allowing you to easily choose the right suitable fit for your ear so that it seals perfectly. The earbuds are compact, unobtrusive and subtle, providing the maximum comfort and tight fit within your ears. This means that there is no bulky body jutting out and unwanted dangling components that might become a hindrance when working out with it; minimizing the probability of the earbuds being dislodged from your ears - less prone to losing them. The charging case is light, pocketable, and it's made out of sturdy plastic that opens only when the push button is depressed; minimizing the risk of losing the earbuds as compared to magnetic cases.

Aesthetically speaking, the BackBeat Pro 5100 looks sleek yet simple and professional, so you definitely wouldn’t look out of place when you're wearing it at work.
This pair of earbuds comes with sweat resistance and IPX4 water-resistance, which means rain, sweat and dust would be issues of the past. You'll be able to take them out to the gym or work with ease, making them one of the best picks around if you need true wireless earbuds that can cater to all of your daily needs.
Both buds are equipped with proximity sensors; audio stops/resumes when the buds are lifted in/out. A neat and useful feature is also available for phone calls, you can either set the earbuds to either automatically mute your microphone or immediately change the main communication device to your phone upon taking off your earbuds.

Moreover, the earbud buttons are highly sensitive, which means they respond well to touches and presses. The earbuds tap controls are fully customizable (i.e. tap to tell 
the time, start your favourite playlist in Spotify, Apple Music, or Deezer, or even report the remaining battery life) but by default, the right earbuds controls both media playback and voice call, while the left controls volume. You're able to set which is the primary earbud too. 
Plantronic's BackBeat Pro 5100's Cost

It is being retailed for approximately ~$269 on Lazada. The prices may differ depending on the various sales available online. I would recommend getting them during the double-digit sale dates (i.e. 12.12, 1.1), which may provide you with attractive discounts when the flash sale price is stacked with vouchers.


Plantronic's Specifications & Features


Important Unique Feature: Plantronic's WindSmart Technology

Experience all your calls in premium clarity. The Backbeat PRO 5100 features four noise-cancelling mics and Plantronic's exclusive WindSmart technology, which captures your voice and tunes out wind and disruptive background noise, so your voice comes through loud and clear in every call.

1. Premium call clarity

Be heard with four noise-cancelling mics and WindSmart technology

2. All-day comfort
Lightweight, tiny form factor with ultra-comfortable ear tips
3. Deep, rich sound
Powerful 5.8 mm drivers in a snug, noise-isolating design 
4. Total Battery Life: 
19 Hours of Power (6.5 hours/charge + 2 charges from portable charging case)
When you’re in a pinch, a 10-minute quick charge in the sleek, pocketable charging case provides you up to one hour of power. Plus, the earbuds automatically power on and pair with your mobile device straight out of the case making it easy to take a call or play your favourite song.




Customization easily within your reach

Now you don’t have to pause what you’re doing to change things up. "My Tap" feature within the Backbeat Application, available on both iOS and Android, offers command customization for a personalized listening experience. With one or two taps and no break in the action, you can start a stopwatch, set a timer or select your favourite playlist directly from your earbuds.
Plantronics BackBeat Pro 5100's Setbacks

Every pair of earphones has its own limitations and not anyone product is perfect. With advances in technologies, there is an increasing trend of consumers prefer utilizing USB-C and wireless charging. In my personal opinion, I feel that it isn't a necessary feature to have as an ordinary micro-USB function pretty well on its own for charging. Most portable chargers and phones out there that utilizes micro-USB, which makes it all the more convenient to bring it out as I'll be able to charge multiple devices with just one cable as of now. I do not deny that it is definitely good to have wireless charging as an added feature but the technology as of now is too inefficient which is why we're better off using conventional cables instead. I understand that some of you guys out there may not agree with me, but I believe the earbuds serve its purpose well and the sound quality should be the major weighing factor on whether one should purchase the product instead.

KAVIEL TEO'S 25TH BIRTHDAY + GRADUATION PARTY 2018 (14th July 2018)

Last year, I celebrated the joy of graduation alongside my 25th birthday. I had a great deal of fun, all thanks to my friends who took their time off to make this day fun and special. I felt really honored to have my fellow friends celebrate the completion of my university education at the National University of Singapore (NUS), where I pursued a Bachelor of Engineering (Honors) [Chemical Engineering] Degree.




I would also like to thank @chocablocsg for the chocolate fudge cakes as well as the cute little panda that really represented me, 治熊 [Chinese Character (熊): Bear] well.

@ChocABlocSG's Chocolate Fudge Cakes
RP: $45/KG

Out of all the numerous Chocolate Fudge Cakes I've eaten over the years, the rich chocolate crunchy fudge cakes from @chocablocsg is definitely one of the tastiest. Each bite is filled with chocolaty goodness that simply melts in your mouth, making this slice of happiness so irresistible. At this price point, the homemade Chocolate Fudge Cakes by @chocablocsg is the perfect choice to be shared with your loved ones during joyous occasions (i.e. birthdays, mother's day, father's day and etc). Not forgetting the cute panda biscuits that are superbly tasty and healthier than conventional biscuits. 

BINGO GAME - Congratulations Andrew Kho for winning the Okimochi Box last year

I would like to thank Okimochi for sponsoring last year's giveaway on my birthday. If you guys are not aware of what to surprise someone special with on their special occasion, the Okimochi Box is the solution. Okimochi Box simply makes surprises easy, as they will be the one that will prepare a specially curated surprise box for your loved ones on your behalf. You need not crack your head just to think of what to surprise your loved ones with anymore. You may also make specific requests on the gifts that you have in mind too. 

Simply follow the following steps:
1. Pick an occasion 
2. Set a budget
3. Tell them who is it for
4. Wrap up with the location, time & address

Before you guys look through the cascade of photos of my birthday, I would like to tell everyone out there, especially those who have attended my birthday party last year, "be it the good or the bad memories we have had over the years, I would hope that you'll find it the bonds we have over the years to forgive me for any mistakes that I have made." No one is perfect and it is through life's journey of dealing with mistakes that change one for the better. I would hope we can let bygones be bygones and create fonder memories together in the near future. 

Friendship is one of the purest bonds that one will always need and appreciate, and it's the one I'll always cherish forever and always. This is because if it weren't for all the strong support from all of you guys out there who stood by my side, I wouldn't have been able to achieve what I have today. To all my friends out there: "I may not be able to be by your side always, but do know that you can always feel free to keep in touch and confide in me whenever needed."

All in all, the future is still within our grasp and I'm really anticipating the unfolding of the mysteries of what's to come. Moreover, I hope that this year's party will be even better and memorable.
