My New Android OS 14 Tablet with Keyboard Case #android #androidtablet #androidos14


(All links open up in a new tab.)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I just bought a new Android 14 tablet with a wired keyboard, and it's pretty good. However, I later discovered that it's not Android OS 14 but Oreo 8.1. Someone told me that in one of my comment sections, but I didn't believe it initially, as my device says Android 14.

When I went online to check which Android OS was on the device, it stated that it was an Oreo 8.1. I was a little mad, as I thought it was the latest OS. The specs were pretty impressive, with large storage and RAM. Also, it's only around $100+ with free gifts!

Another commented that I should ask for a refund. I rarely ask for a refund because they won't give you a refund and always give excuses. The good news is that, even with an Oreo 8.1 version, it runs smoothly and does whatever I want.

The bad news is that some of the apps and games on the playstore are not playing or usable. Doesn't matter, cause all those latest bloated games and apps with in-app purchases or ads are nuisance. I ended up deleting them all. However, there are some I really wanted to run like Termux.


For just $100 I got an affordable mini laptop with Android OS. It can play retro games and I like playing around with old systems like the C64, Apple IIe, or MS-DOS. I love learning simple coding with basics. There aren't any good free apps for Linux terminals or Python on Android.

Those available suck. They're full of ads or don't actually work as the real thing. I end up just playing with the retro emulators. YouTube and other social media run smoothly on Chrome. I prefer using them to the apps cause they're slow and erratic behavior.


Using the Android Oreo 8.1 OS is pretty limited. Some apps and games don't play and act exasperatingly weird. You can try side installs but those websites that host them have many ads. It's better I guess as it stops you from going crazy and just install everything.

It's funny cause we don't have the self-control to stop ourselves from installing everything and anything we don't need or use. I have many apps and games on my phone that I haven't used for years. That's why I don't mind using the Oreo OS version.


Once, I stop installing apps and games that give me problems on the device, I have a blast using it. I usually use it in the morning drinking coffee and breakfast. I have a laptop but because the tablet is light, small, and always on it fits nicely with my daily morning routine. 

I only need my laptop or computer when I need to do heavy workloads like video editing. I used my phones too but, then I needed to charge them. That's when a tablet with bigger-sized screens is useful for social media consumption. Enjoy the simple things in life!

Powkiddy X18 - The New Nintendo 3DS XL that I Had Always Wanted!


Powkiddy X18 Handheld Games Console 2-Player Video Game Machine 5.5-Inch WiFi

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Yes, I'm still going to talk about Powkiddy X18. It's because I'm still messing around with it. Well, yesterday night, I took out my retro ROMs MicroSD card from my Android tablet and put it into my X18. I forget how big the storage was until I realized it contains all my ROMs, music, pictures, etc.

Since I seldom use my tablet anymore, might as well used it on my X18. Anyway, retro gaming or any kind of gaming is much more fun with a physical controller. And, the X18 comes integrated with one. With a couple of thousands of retro games available, this is becoming my ultimate retro gaming system.



Powkiddy X18 Handheld Games Console 2-Player Video Game Machine 5.5-Inch WiFi

  • Android 7.0 handheld game console, opening a new era of the game, supporting the 17th National Congress simulator, dual joystick controller. Massive applications are available for download, support PC version 3A masterpiece, support Android games. Built-in game spelling list, chicken simulator, grid cloud game, PSP.
  • HDMI connection comes with C-TYPE, HDMI interface, can be directly connected to the TV with the corresponding interface, projector, monitor for games, after pre-installed TV LAUNCH can be used as a WIFI network set-top box with WIFI DISPLAY (need to connect smart TV or DONGLE).
  • Independent sound cavity design, immersive sound field, take you to experience smart music. Support 32G TF card expansion, HDMI high-definition interface, can support link high-definition TV, support Bluetooth link handle (can match PS-4 direct play handle).
  • Long-lasting battery life, 5000mAh large-capacity battery adopts a lithium polymer battery with a capacity of 5000mAh. The battery is smaller in size and lighter in weight and can be used more times.
  • CPU: MTK 8163, quad-core A53 64-bit processor 1.3GHz. Memory: 2GDDR3+16GB EMMC. Battery: 5000 mAh.
The funny thing is that the form factor design is obviously copied from the Nintendo 3DS. I make a quick physical comparison on my unboxing video. You can watch it here. I wish they copied everything though. Like a second screen, a stylus pen, and the camera.

Back in the day, I wish they'll improve on the NN3DS XL. Especially, the graphics. I remember watching youtube on it but now you can't. I still have it so, not being able to watch youtube kinda sucks. I can't quite remember if you can browse the Internet or do social media back then.



New Nintendo 2DS XL - Black + Turquoise With Mario Kart 7 Pre-installed - Nintendo 2DS

Now, I have the Nintendo Switch lite but as much as I love it, I'll always feel something missing. Yes, that's the part the Powkiddy X18 or the GPD XD Plus can fill it up. The difference with the X18 is that it uses Android O.S. which is like a lighter version of Microsoft Windows.

I don't really game all the time. I check my emails, read up on news, do research on Google, messaging, voice messages, video call my family and friends with Whatsapp, watch youtube, listen to music and social media. You know, the everyday thingy. 



GPD XD Plus [Official distributor, Latest HW & Most Stable Update] Foldable Handheld Game Consoles 5" Touchscreen, Android 7.0 Fast Mediatek MT8176 Hexa-core 2.1GHz CPU, 4GB RAM/32GB ROM

Yes, I know. I already do all that on my Samsung Note 10+. In fact, I even have my Blackberry used as my second phone. Now, I consider the Powkiddy X18 as my main device to do all that. I even use it occasionally to Whatsapp my family and close friend.  

That's why I wish the X18 has a camera like mine 3ds xl. I would have used it for video calls. Imagine, if the X18 also has a second screen, you can use it for a touchscreen keyboard or touchpad. That big empty space in between the controller is such a waste of space.



GPD Win 2 [256GB M.2 SSD Storage] Mini Handheld Windows 10 Video Game Console Gameplayer 6" Laptop Notebook Tablet PC CPU M3-8100Y intel HD Graphics 615 8GB/256GB

If you want something light and portable for entertainment and social media, you don't need Microsoft Windows software. I used to hate the early version of Android, now, you can do everything as if you're using a Windows PC. The best part that the mobile phone and a laptop don't have is the integrated controller.

The integrated controller is what makes the difference. That's why I love gaming on my Nintendo Switch and NN3DS XL. Even if you don't like the integrated controller you can buy an external controller. But, the important thing is that there's an integrated one for on-the-go gaming!

The Powdiddy X18 and the GPD XD Plus though also lets you use it as a mini laptop. It's what I had always wanted to do on my NN3DS XL years ago. And, even on my Switch lite now. But, if they put a second touchscreen/touchpad and a camera for video-calling, it'll be 90% perfect!

Blacell 4 in 1 Micro USB HUB Adaptor with Power for Tablet


Blacell 4 in 1 Micro USB HUB Adaptor with Power Powered, Charging Charge OTG Host Cable Cord Adapter Connector for Android Smart Phone Tablet Samsung Galaxy S3 S4 S5 Note 2 3 4 Edge HTC One M7 M8

Hey guys,

Quick promo!

I've been thinking of turning my Android tablet into a laptop replacement. I even bought a foldable keyboard case for it. I bought one that connects the keyboard via a micro USB. It's because I also wanted to use it with my Nintendo Switch lite which you can't connect via Bluetooth without an adapter.

The problem is that the tablet battery runs out pretty fast. I'm not sure why. I thought the keyboard could be the cause or the battery isn't good enough in the first place. Well, I could just plug into the power but then, I can't plug in my Keyboard. That's the part, where a micro USB hub adapter is needed.



Blacell 4 in 1 Micro USB HUB Adaptor with Power Powered, Charging Charge OTG Host Cable Cord Adapter Connector for Android Smart Phone Tablet Samsung Galaxy S3 S4 S5 Note 2 3 4 Edge HTC One M7 M8

  • NOTE: Three ports with USB design can connect the keyboard, mouse, card reader, and so on (can't connect hard disk).
  • One power USB port can connect the original charger to supply power for flash disk, card reader, mouse, keyboard, and so on.
  • Compatible with all tablets and cellphones with OTG function, such as Samsung Galaxy S3/S4/Tab 3,2, Note 10.1, and so on.
  • Share your U disk content while charging the phone; Micro-USB Power can charge your tablet and smartphone simultaneously.
One important thing to note is that always get an adapter that can also charge your device at the same time. It'll be a hassle if you need to wait every time the battery runs out. I'm glad that they have this feature for the micro USB hub adapter.

In today's world, I think all new devices should use a USB C-type connector. I find that it's much easier and faster to connect and power your device at the same time. For example, one of my portable monitors uses a round plug connector for power and it's always having problems turning on.



USB C Hub, uni 4-in-1 USB C Adapter with 3 USB 3.0 Ports, 100W USB-C PD Charging Port Thunderbolt 3, USB Type C to USB 3.0 Adapter (Aluminum Shell) for MacBook Pro, iPad Pro, XPS, Pixelbook, and More

My new portable monitor uses USB C for power and it turns on easily every time. There are also many USB C hubs compares to a micro USB hub. I'm not sure why the product manufacturer still prefers micro USB. Another problem is that it's sometimes difficult to connect.

A USB C connector can be easily connected to your devices as it fits both sides. No more fumbling. So, I don't know why they insist on using the old technology of the micro USB for power. Anyway, it's not as if the USB C is still new. How long has it been since it was introduced to replace the micro-USB port?

Anyway, since many of my old and some new devices still using a Micro USB port, I guess the adapter will be useful. Especially, since it also helps charge my tablet at the same time. I actually bought two just in case and also because it's pretty cheap.

Now, with power, not a problem, I can definitely use my Android tablet as a laptop!

TRANSFER PICS & VIDEOS FROM NINTENDO SWITCH LITE TO LAPTOP


Nintendo Switch with Gray Joy‑Con - HAC-001(-01)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I was charging my Nintendo Switch lite on my laptop when I remembered that now you can transfer pictures and videos taken on your Switch to your computer. The system update also allows you to transfer to your mobile device. I tried it the other night but doesn't seem to work.

I might try that out again later on. For now, this is pretty nifty. Besides backing up your favorite pictures and videos, you can also edit and share them with others easily while on your computer. Of course, you can already do that via your Switch. This is just an added bonus.



Nintendo Switch with Gray Joy‑Con - HAC-001(-01)

I wish, we can properly record our gameplay though. I don't know when the recording actually starts. There'll be an instance when I wanted to immediately start recording but turn out it only took pictures. Even if it starts recording, it was recording a couple secs late. Kinda frustrating.

They should show an on-screen controller or something to show when we want to start and stop recording. In any case, I always do an external recording with my iPad Pro if I want to record any gameplay. At least, I have full control of the recording process.



Nintendo Switch Lite - Gray

It will be interesting if I can connect my Nintendo Switch lite to my laptop and record gameplay via my Microsoft video recorder. Something like Microsoft Your Phone app, mirroring to your computer or using Samsung Dex. 

If there's a good video editing app that you can use to edit on your switch you won't need the hassle of transferring pictures and videos. All you need to do is connect your switch to a monitor or Tv and use it as a computer or mobile phone.



Gaming Keyboard and Mouse and Mouse pad and Gaming Headset, Wired LED RGB Backlight Bundle for PC Gamers and Xbox and PS4 Users - 4 in 1 Edition Hornet RX-250

I don't know about you but I like the idea of using my Nintendo Switch lite like a mobile phone. A mobile computing game console. Even the size of my Samsung Note 10+ is almost the same as my Nintendo Switch lite. 

In fact, I actually did a video comparison gameplay of Asphalt 9 Legends gameplay between my Nintendo Switch and Samsung S10+. Both of them play well but I like playing more on my Switch lite because I can play with a physical controller.



Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+ Wi-Fi, Mystic Black - 512GB

I'm not sure if you can do any file transfer to an android tablet from your Nintendo Switch. Since Nintendo says you can transfer to your android mobile phone, I guess you can. I'm also not sure if you can transfer wirelessly or you'll need a cable.

I didn't read the full press release. This is actually the first time, I tried successfully connecting to my laptop. If you have a tablet you might want to try it yourself. You can use the free Quik video editing app to create your gameplay videos.

Nintendo is slowly adding new features and updates to enhance the Nintendo Switch. If they read my feedback, I want to be able to do more with my Switch lite. I'll like to be able to access my social media and have apps on it. Physically, they can't upgrade anything but software-wise they definitely can.

USING MY PC MOUSE & KEYBOARD ON MY ANDROID TABLET


Vankyo MatrixPad Z1 7 inch Tablet, Android 8.1 Oreo Go Edition, 32GB Storage, Quad-Core Processor, IPS HD Display, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Blue

Hey guys,

Check it out!

If you're on your pc and you want to access your android tablet with a keyboard and mouse you can. You'll need to connect the tablet to your pc via Bluetooth first. Once connected, you'll see a question box on your monitor asking if you want to connect.

One thing to note is that once your keyboard and mouse are connected to be used on the tablet, you won't be able to use them on your pc. If you want to use it back on your pc, you can just follow the instructions and press Ctrl+Shift+1.




Vankyo MatrixPad Z1 7 inch Tablet, Android 8.1 Oreo Go Edition, 32GB Storage, Quad-Core Processor, IPS HD Display, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Blue

Pretty quick and easy. Using a mouse and keyboard to access your tablet is much better than your fingers. Especially, since you're already on your pc. You can then use them as usual like type your search on Google, reply emails, Whatsapp with your co-workers, family or friends.




Microsoft Wireless All-In-One Media Keyboard (N9Z-00001)

Easily switch using between your pc and tablets by pressing the keypads. I haven't tried it on an iPad though. So, I'm not sure if it works too. That would actually make it easy for me to use my main Pc keyboard and mouse instead of taking out my Bluetooth keyboard.

Anyway, what you guys think?

PS VITA FINAL FANTASY X HD REMASTER UNBOXING & GAMEPLAY


Sony PlayStation Vita WiFi

Hey guys,

PS VITA, might be a couple years old but the tech are pretty update. Even, in 2019, it could hold a candle to the mighty nintendo switch. It's only problem are, Sony. If sony had put their faith on the ps vita just like what nintendo are doing right now for the switch, it'll be as popular.

All they need are current high profile games for the vita. For one thing, bring back all those social media and especially youtube. I haven't played with my vita for awhile and was surprised that I couldn't access youtube on it. Turn out, Sony pulled the plug on their apps. What gives!?

As in with other mobile platform, I'm wondering where all those popular pc games developers. How about left4dead, being able to be played on the ps vita, nintendo switch, ipad pro and android tablet. Wouldn't it be fun to play it on the go?

I also like the idea of those minis indie games on the ps vita. I bought a few to test it out and it was pretty fun. It was actually better playing with the controller then on the mobile phone. I think, it would be a great idea to have all those mobile phone developers to create games for the ps vita.

Latest games like fortnite, pubg, moba, learning guitar apps or whatever available on the mobile devices. Diablo are already on the switch, why not on the vita. Now, that would really be interesting. Playing all these games wouldn't be a problem with vita controller.

Sony, should come back with an updated version of the vita and invite mobile game developers to create games for it. More apps can also be created. The PS VITA, are almost basically the size of my Razer phone, with the two speaker included.

Sony doesn't even have to tweak much on the vita design. Bigger inner memory storage or being able to use latest micro sd card. This way, people can download and install more games. The old ways of running the gaming business company are gone. Get to it Sony!

HellOOoo sony, you listening?

Get the PS VITA via the link below:

FINAL FANTASY X|X-2 HD Remaster - PlayStation Vita

Just by watching this video gameplay and you'll realized how good the ps vita is for gaming. It's small and light but powerful enough to run HD games like final fantasy x. But, we need more racing and shooter games.

For now, if you haven't check out the ps vita or had sold yours, you might want to get one before it's all gone. Everyone, wondering when Sony, if ever, gonna pull the plug on the vita. They already pull the plug on the social media apps.

I've heard, only the indie games are holding the fort right now for the ps vita fans. Let's just wait and see or fans might want to write in to Sony and force them to do something about it. If everyone chip in, we might have a chance!
