It's weird to hear myself speak on camera, but I've done a video review of the new Nakamichi Bluetooth Speakers NBS8 that was sent to me because I wanted to show you how it looks, how it sounds and how easy it is to use.
I do think that the motion sensor is a bit daft because I would normally control the music from my phone wirelessly, but it is a fun feature to have, especially when you are in a car for example, or have hands full of chips and salsa at a party.
HOWEVER, I am very impressed by the portability/size of it while the speakers still delivers on the sound - especially the bass. The internal battery (chargeable by USB) also means you don't have to worry about a plug when you bring it out.
For SGD$169 I can't think of any better Christmas gift for your friends or family for the home, or to get one for yourself to bring to parties or presentations!

My colleague was just jokingly telling me about how hipster cafes all have a few things in common and I realized that that is actually an acute observation!
Besides being having a really 'indie' sort of name, and sometimes having mediocre overpriced food (rant here), we have identified 5 other things that hipster cafes have in common. If you can hit at least 3, congratulations you are in a hipster cafe.
1. Naked bulbs

5. Located in an ulu area.
Especially if you can't tell it's there unless you know.
Perhaps its cheap rent, but I suspect it is done much on purpose. Difficult to find or get to, you need to know its there to find it so you get a sense of accomplishment when you discover it. You will never find it in town (sorry Oriole) or somewhere 'obvious'.
Bonus: Chalkboard signs (not all have it), Kith Cafe is one of them.

These are the few of cafes I've tried that came to mind that roughly fits the criteria. Of course there's more, but I felt like some of them are more cakes/pastries centric while some of them too accessible or franchised (e.g. Toby's).
What do you think? Did I miss anything out?
