    Complete Your 12.12 Shopping List with the help of PayMaya with these Budget Tricks

    However, it’s hard to score all the things you want this holiday season if you’re currently on a budget. So, our team came up with some cool tricks to complete your 12.12 shopping list without breaking the bank! Here’s how:

    Create your shopping list

    Before going to malls and checking online stores, it’s important that you have already created your shopping list. If you’re planning to buy presents, enumerate your target gift for a specific person. With this, you will not be overwhelmed by the number of options that will be offered to you.

    Allocate estimated value for each item

    Once you’re done creating your shopping list, do not forget to allocate the estimated value for each item. This is to make sure that you won’t spend money beyond your budget. For instance, when you find one item, check if its price matches your estimated value. If not, look for more options that can fit into your budget.

    Start with the most important things

    When shopping, you must start with your priorities. Keep in mind that you have to complete your shopping list first before buying additional stuff. Always remember that being exposed to more products might steal your attention, hence, you might end up buying items that are not included in your shopping list. So, it’s better if you will stick to your plans and look for the most important things first!

    Resist temptations

    Once you completed your shopping list, resist buying more items that are not included in your original plan. Remind yourself that you have already set your budget, and you must follow it. Because if not, you might spend too many bucks on things that you don’t really need.

    Look for promos

    INTRODUCTION:

    Filipinos are known to be avid consumers of entertainment. Watching television with family members over food is considered as a daily activity in a common Filipino household. Gone are the days when the only option to have a television at home is to shell out a relatively large sum of money. With the advent of technology, appliances are made affordable, thus, giving people a number of options to have access to entertainment.

    A&S 49-inch FHD LED TV Review; Pleasant Viewing Experience at an Affordable Price

    While well-known large television brands are the first ones a person could think of when he or she is looking for a new TV, there are small and rising brands that also offer decent technology at an affordable price. An example of which is the A&S 49-inch Slim Full HD LED TV which will be available in Shopee at a very low price on the 12.12 sale. In this review, we’ll let you know about the good features of the A&S H49FNMY100 49-inch LED Full HD TV as well as how you can get it from Shopee.


    DESIGN and DISPLAY:

    Before we dig deeper into what the A&S 49-inch Slim Full HD LED TV is offering, let’s get to know the brand first. A&S is a Malaysia-based company made to manufacture high quality and economical consumer electronic products. The brand is also slowly entering the international scene as it is one of the many technology firms who participated in the Consumer Electronics Show, an annual tech show in Las Vegas which A&S was present in 2018 and 2019.

    Outside the box, the said A&S television shines in its full glory with its 49-inch screen. It can be mistaken as one of those high-end televisions, with its sleek, minimalist design, and competitive Full HD screen in 1920 x 1080 resolution.

    Interface

    The A&s 49-inch Slim Full HD LED TV is the kind of television that can be married in any type of home setup, as its design is made to seamlessly blend in any home or lifestyle space. And since it’s an LED TV, users and viewers are assured that it can give just the right amount of sharpness as well as color contrast and saturation on the images it flashes.

    The A&S 49-inch Slim Full HD LED TV has two stands on its bottom left and right parts, but just like other televisions, it can also be mounted on walls if users would prefer that.

    CBVS Out, HDMI1, HDMI2, VGA IN, PC-Audio IN, RF IN

    In terms of its connectivity options, this television has what’s essential, including two USB ports and two HDMI ports. It also has VGA, three AUX ports, two Y-PB-PR inputs, and an antenna/video output. Meanwhile, the power cable is fixed, it is not by any means users-replaceable.


    PERFORMANCE:

    The A&S 49-inch Slim Full HD LED TV can be a piece of firm evidence that a decent home entertainment system need not be over the top in terms of budget. Using the said television as our main source of entertainment for a couple of days is a joyous experience since aside from watching free and cable TV channels on it, it can also be used for karaoke and as a gaming screen. Another plus is setting up PLDT Home Roku TVolution and ABS-CBN TV Plus on the A&S 49-inch Slim Full HD LED TV also went like a breeze, meaning, this television is as user-friendly as it can get. Moreover, with Roku (or other similar devices like Google Chromecast) it can transform into an internet/smart TV!

    This is also true when it comes to the television’s user-interface, which is another thing we liked about this TV. Unlike other televisions that require users a few pushes of the buttons on the remote to have their preferred settings, the A&S 49-inch LED Full HD TV makes tweaking of its settings easy and convenient.

    Using its remote control (which does not come with free batteries, so better have 2 AAA ready), one can already adjust the television’s settings according to their preferences, including the TV’s picture mode, brightness, contrast, and sharpness. In tweaking the TV’s saturation, users can have it more detailed as the A&S 49-inch LED Full HD TV is allowed to change its hue levels, color temperature, as well as its aspect ratio.

    Aside from this, users can also adjust the TV’s sound and channel properties. The TV also has a lock option in case kids aren’t allowed to watch a certain channel on the TV.

    Putting it to test further, we utilized the USB ports of the A&S 49-inch LED Full HD TV to access the contents of both a flash drive and a portable external hard drive. The said TV easily and quickly read what’s the respective content, however, we noticed its similarity to other televisions in which the file names are not completely spelled on the screen. In addition, there are some movie files that can be read, but without audio on them.

    So far, we’ve tackled quite a few positive points of the A&S 49-inch LED Full HD TV, and to keep things in balance, here’s a caveat of the TV that’s quite noticeable: its back-firing speakers need some improvement. The sound that the TV produce appears cranky especially on high volumes, but this is a feature that can easily be solved by attaching a soundbar, which by the way is also A&S main product line.

    The A&S 49-inch LED Full HD TV runs on 65W of power consumption which can be further reduced as the television comes with its own power-saving feature.


    FINAL WORDS:

    By and large, the A&S 49-inch LED Full HD TV presents itself as a worthy competitor given its price range. Since this is just a standard TV, we’re hoping that A&S will release a smart TV soon that’s also tagged at an affordable price. Nonetheless, the A&S H49FNMY100 49-inch LED Full HD TV offers a pleasant entertainment viewing experience at an affordable price tag.

    The listed price of the A&S 49-inch LED Full HD TV on Shopee is at Php25,399. But on Shopee’s upcoming 12.12 grand sale, you can score the TV at an even more affordable price! Catch the flash deal on Shopee 12.12 and get it for only Php10,999!
