Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Review
Watch Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Review at Dot Com Pho in Vancouver, BC. The Samsung Galaxy Tab is currently banned from being sold in Australia, Germany, the UK and most of Europe except for the Netherlands. Update December 09 2011: Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is now allowed to be sold in Australia.
Whether you live in those countries or not you can have a good look at Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 through the eyes of Michael Kwan and my camera in this video.
Galaxy Tab 10.1 is probably the best Android tablet so far. It is sleek, light, (even slightly lighter than the iPad 2) and you can even take a screen shot with it.
The screen is slightly wider than that of iPad 2 although it is not as tall.
The back of this Samsung tablet has a plastic back cover which to some may look and feel tacky when compared to iPad 2 metal back cover but some may prefer it for what seems to be a better grip when holding it.

Asus Eee Pad Slider Review
Asus Eee Pad Slider Review at Dot Com Pho shows how you can easily change tablet to notebook. Michael Kwan shows the Asus Eee Pad Slider making his qualified comments about it as an experienced reviewer of such products.
Both Michael Kwan and Bonnie Saisbury mention during their review a few points about Asus versus iPad.
Bonnie Sainsbury has used the Asus for a week and likes it very much saying that she successfully used it exclusively without having to use her laptop.
She doesn’t mind the 2 pounds of weight that Asus Eee Pad Slider has and which is much more than what iPad weighs because she’s not used to iPad. She likes Android and doesn’t own any Apple products.

Aaxa P4 Pico Projector Review
Aaxa P4 Pico Projector review at Dot Com Pho in Vancouver BC. Michael Kwan shows off this very handy and useful small size projector. Even at daylight on a sunny day and projecting on a partially painted window glass the images were visible and quite good.

Panasonic Lumix GF2 Review
This Panasonic Lumix GF2 review at Dot Com Pho is done mainly by Michael Kwan with Ed Lau, a professional photographer giving his qualified opinion and Vance Sova who asks if GF2 is like a Ferrari of cameras.
The answer to that question is no but all three reviewers agree that Panasonic Lumix GF2 is a very good camera.
It has a touch screen, pop up flash, a shoe and stereo microphones among other things.
This camera was used by John Chow for about 6 months and he was very happy with it.
You may find it funny towards the end of the video to hear what they say about reading instruction manuals.

Owle Bubo Mount Review
Watch Owle Bubo Mount Review by John Chow at Dot Com Pho in Vancouver BC to see a video making setup for iPhone 4s and iPhone 4 with optional Rode Video Microphone Pro. If you want your video audio to be of high quality Rode video mike is a way to go.
Owle Bubo Mount is made of solid aluminum. Weighing about 2 pounds, it’s very stable standing on a table too. It has a wide angle lens, tripod mounts and legs that also serve as handles for a nice firm grip.
Try to avoid using the microphone that comes with the Owle Bubo Mount. It’s of poor quality and when moved on its swivel it picks up highly audible squeaky noise.

Sony Tablet S Review
Watch Sony Tablet S review at Dot Com Pho in Vancouver. Sony Tablet S is an Android Honeycomb tablet with a unique ergonomic design to make it easy to hold even with one hand. The wedge shape also makes it easier to read and to write when the tablet is placed on a flat surface like that of a table.
Aside from having full size SD slot, Sony customizations, Sony apps like Crackle and the unique shape, Sony Tablet S is comparable with all the other Android tablets.

Dell XPS 1Z5 Laptop Review – Mac Book Pro Look Alike?
Watch a very unbiased Dell XPS 15Z Laptop Review which took place at Dot Com Pho in Vancouver BC. See for yourself if this notebook is a MacBook Pro look alike.
At least from the outside it’s looking remarkably similar to Apple’s Mac Book Pro. On the inside it’s a different story.
Michael Kwan who does this review is quite happy with the performance of Dell XPS 15Z with the exception of the battery life which is quite low.
Just watch and listen to what he has to say.

Samsung Galaxy Note Review- Phone too Big?
Watch Samsung Galaxy Note review at Dot Com Pho in Vancouver BC. Michael Kwan says the phone is too big for a phone and it’s too small to be a tablet. It’s awkward to hold with one hand. In this video you can also see Samsung Galaxy Note next to iPhone and later next to Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
Aside from the big size which Michael Kwan and Ed Lau classify as enormous, the Galaxy Note phone is loaded with features some of which Michael mentions.
While there is probably market for it, none of the people present at this Dot Com Pho is likely to even consider buying it. Watch and listen and you may have a different opinion or agree with us.

LG Optimus 3D Review
LG Optimus 3D Review gives a look at a new LG Android smart phone at Dot Com Pho in Vancouver. It’s the first ever Dot Com Pho review done in front of CBC TV camera. CBC’s Andrew Lavigne was filming this review done by Michael Kwan too.
The LG Optimus 3D has 2 cameras on its back which allows it to take 3D videos and 3D photos. It also has a 3D display and several 3D applications and 3D games.
Other than that it’s a pretty much regular Android phone.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus Review
Watch Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus review at Dot Com Pho in Vancouver and Find out how it’s different from the original Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Android tablet which it’s an update to.
The new tablet has “Plus” in the name because it has a dual core 1 or 1.2 GHz processor and 5 megapixel camera on the back. It’s not running on gingerbread as the original Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 but on honeycomb (3-3.2).
It also has a front camera for self-portrait or video conferencing. The power and the volume buttons are on the same side.
The screen is basically the same size as on the Playbook, except the aspect ratio is slightly different in that the screen is slightly longer and narrower compared to that of Playbook.
Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus is definitely faster than the original Galaxy Tab 7.0.
This review was done by Michael Kwan.

Why people still use to read news papers when in this technological globe all is accessible on web?

Lenore,I might be old-fashioned but it’s probably all just a sentiment. It’s all good as long as the paper gets recycled. What you guys think about see thru tablet commercial from Samsung?

Hi,
How could tablets and smart phones change the internet as such in any way? They have nothing to do with it really but only with the way people search the internet. Instead of using computers they’ll use tablets and smart phones more often.
Thanks for the comment. I hope this helps.

Thanks the great review. I have been reading reviews on your site for a while, and think that your articles are great and very well put (subjective and to the point). I especially like your product reviews. The Entrpreneur in me have recently spurred me to start a line of Apple Accessories products myself. But a huge issue I’ve been having is getting my brand out there. In such a competitve market brand recognition is key, and I think getting a review from you would be a great place to start. Would you be interested in reviewing some of my products? I would love to get your take on how my stuff compares to whats currently on the market. I’m looking for a genuine, non-biased review, as this is essential for me to improve my products. My current line of accessories is called BisonFone; the line consists of of quality chargers, cords, car adapters, external batteries, and cases. These products are preliminary (and the market is full of these I know), but I spent a lot of time with a lot of different factories in order to make sure that they are of high quality. In addition to this I have a lot of MiniDisplayPort cables which Apple does not carry. I’m also in the works with a Japanese working on a line of remote controlled toy that is spacially aware of its surroundings (hopefully before iPad 3 and iPhone 5 gets released). Get in touch with me, I’d love to get you to review my stuff! You can find my contact info at my website. I’m very serious about this and would really like a chance for you to review at least some of my products.

Cheers,

Hi Lenore,because there are some person who doesnt know how to use or who can’t afford to buy gadgets like tablets.

Technology is dominating the world so I think its better for us to be updated about it. In using technology, you can get more information than just reading on a newspaper.
Great post!

Hi Joe,
I’m doing both, showing and telling. Since you didn’t bother to read anything, you missed my request as to what I prefer the comments to be about and in what format. Glib comments that don’t address the topic of any of the videos and that don’t add any value are useless and I either remove them completely or remove comment luv. Please try to leave a comment that is relevant the next time.

I believe that such reviews are needed not only for people involved in internet marketing! I guess everyone fascinated with new technology, wants to see the review before you buy. You could immediately sell the equipment for which you are doing a review. I think it would be much interested. Personally I liked second review of the Asus Eee Pad Slider.Great idea of a combination of tablet and laptop.
