Hunting for a new Bluetooth Earphone set

So yeah, now that I’m using my phone’s NFC more and more for card payments as well as taking the bus/MRT (EZ-link replacement), I no longer want to stick my 3.5mm jack earphones into the phone now to listen to music when travelling.

Some background – my phone is a Sony Xperia XZ Premium. I didn’t really like the earphones that came with it, so I continued using the ones from the previous phone – Sony Xperia Z5. They are the Sony MH750 earphones. Cheapo, I thought, cuz it came FREE with the phone.

Razer Cynosa – Mecha Membrane Keyboard

So recently, my old Logitech G710+ starting weirding out on me – the WASD keys don’t light up, intermittently. It’s not a switch problem, it’s an LED problem. Other than that, the keyboard still works.

I’m A Logitech Man (part 3) – The Logitech G710+ Mechanical Keyboard

So recently, I was at a local computer expo (Comex or IT Show, can’t remember which) in 2014. Why did I wait so long to write this? Easy – I wanted to give this keyboard a REAL test first. I needed to see and feel it in action for everyday use as well as frantic gaming moments. So yeah, roughly 8 to 9 months later, I finally sat down to write this.

Anyway long story short, I came across this booth where they were selling lots of peripherals, like mice, gamepads, joysticks etc. What caught my eye were 2 products – The Logitech G710+ Keyboard, and the Razer Black Widow Keyboard. At that point in time, Razer was cheaper by about $20 or $30, I forget. The reason why I opted for the Logitech was simply because my mouse was already a Logitech one, which meant I already have the gaming software for the keyboard. May as well use the same software to manage the keyboard as well instead of having to run the one from Razer.
