Apple iPhone 13 Design Still Sucks With Stupid Notch


SAMSUNG Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G Factory Unlocked Android Cell Phone US Version Smartphone Tablet 2-in-1 Foldable Dual Screen Under Display Camera 256GB Storage, Phantom Black

Hey guys,

Check it out!

First off, I'm only posting links to SAMSUNG mobile phone because for some reason Apple products seem to be always out of stock or unavailable on Amazon. I make affiliates money from promoting companies' products that are available. I'll appreciate it if you help me out by buying anything through my Amazon links. It helps support my blog and youtube channel. Domo arigato!

Anyway, I still hate the same Apple iPhone design with the stupid notch. Apparently, apple's fans still buy it even though, in their heart they hate it. Before you bash me thinking, I'm an Android or Samsung fan, I've owned iPhone 3G to my last iPhone 8. I switched to Samsung (again) when I saw the iPhone X. It's kinda irony because Apple makes me switch.

In the early days, I hated Android OS. When I couldn't get the iPhone 4, I decided to get the S3, or was it S4? I can't remember. I like the iPhone 7 and 8 and practically use them for making and editing my videos for my youtube channel. It's when I decided to switch to S10+ from my Razer gaming phone that I chose to get the iPad.

I like iMovie and GarageBand. I've been using it for decades. I'm still using it now because I like recording using my iPad pro 10.5 inches. I'm looking for upgrades to the latest iPad. I've talked about how I wish they have an iPad mini with better camera specs. And, now they improved it, especially with the new M3 chips.

I've been wanting to get the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold phone since the first iteration. It's a damn cool concept. Especially, if you're like me a blogger and a Youtuber. You can use it like any other phone when it's closed but if you want a bigger screen, you just unfold it and voila, a tablet. If I can get this phone, I won't need an iPad anymore.

I'll be able to take videos and pictures and for a better view for editing, just unfold it. Sync my Bluetooth keyboard and mouse and it'll be like a mini laptop. What's with Samsung Dex available. I love Samsung Dex. It's much better to use it when you want to use it as a pc or laptop. Now, you don't need to bring along a separate laptop for work or for play.




Okay, I know, I've been talking more about Samsung phones than the iPhone. It's simply because Apple has really disappointed me. I once thought I'll never use another brand but here I am, talking about my favorite new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3. I really applaud Samsung for being brave and even though the first Z Fold had many complaints, they actually listen and improved on it!

Meanwhile, Apple is still sticking to being safe and only did increments updates on their products. Granted, they have new faster chips and super-powerful phones and iPad but the design department is really disappointing. I took a look at my niece's iPhone 12 pro max and I'm like there's nothing that'll make me buy this. By the way, take a look at my vid comparison of the Note 10+ and iPhone 12 here.

Did you know that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 comes with a new special stylus pen? I love using the stylus pen on my Note 10+. That's why I sold my S10+ for the Note. If you open up your Z Fold 3, you can use the stylus pen on the new screen. Use it to write, draw, and when editing pictures or videos. I don't know why Samsung doesn't market the Z Fold 3 for vloggers or YouTubers.

Well, if you don't care for all that, you can just get the iPhone 13. But, it's not available yet. I might promo it on my blog here if they're selling it. Drop by again on my blog or do a search on products that you might be interested in. Once again, I appreciate the support of buying products via my Amazon links. If I earned enough, I want to get the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3. Haha!

No matter what, these mobile phones have definitely become on par with laptops and Pc. Not necessarily on triple-A gaming. You can now work just by using your mobile phone. No more having to lugs around heavy laptops like the old days. Although, the laptops today have definitely getting slimmer and lighter. Have a look inside my HP AMD Ryzen laptop here.

ipega red knight 9087s retractable controller S10 plus NBA 2K Mobile Chicago Bulls gameplay


Mobile Game Controller, Mutop Wireless Gamepad Controller Joystick Telescopic Game Controller for iOS Android iPhone Tablet PC TV Box - iPega PG-9087S

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I love playing a basketball game and my favorite team is always Chicago Bulls. Okay, the only reason I support the team is that they were champion back then with Michael Jordan. Who could forget the best team in the NBA!

Frankly, I don't know much about basketball beside that. I don't play it in real life. But, I like playing the game just as I like playing FIFA soccer. I decided to try if the ipega 9087s will work with NBA 2K Mobile. It does!

You need to press HOME + A for mode 1 to be able to use the controller. Make sure, the phone camera is on the top left or you'll find the controller working weird. You can't go through the menu using the controller though. Other then that, you'll learn which buttons are for which.

In all, I really like the game. I don't really care which players are inside my team. I wanted to play the latest NBA 2k20 mobile but I'll have to pay. And, I think the controller will work. I saw video gameplay of it with the ipega controller. Only that, I don't like having to pay to play!

Get the iPega Red Knight controller via the link below:

  • Compatible with: The iPega 9087s Gamepad is for BT enabled Android tablets and smartphone, Android smart TV, for IOS system, TV box, windows 7/8/10 PC, set-up box.
  • Turbo acceleration function: The iPega 9087s Game Controller make it stronger and faster when playing games.
  • Wireless Transmission: The 9087s Joystick Gamepad can be 6 to 8 meters wide range of control of the operation.
  • Adjustable angle Includes a phone chip, the iPega wireless gamepad supports the mobile phone with the screen under 6.2 inches.
  • Ergonomic design: Premium ABS material with ergonomic curve design iPega wireless game controller, giving you the amazing gaming experience. Hands never tired.

I'm not sure what's going on with the game dev today. Why can't it be like the old days where you got what you pay for. Now, you'll have to pay to get the game and then keep paying to play. What the hell?

The worst part is that there are gamers out there that support such games. They're willing to pay to play. Hundreds if not thousands of $$ have been paid to get gems or whatever. I worry about the game industry.

What you think?

If there are game dev or promoters looking to showcase their game. Just hit me an email via the contact page.

ipega red knight 9087s retractable controller s10+ gangstar vegas world of crime


Mobile Game Controller, Mutop Wireless Gamepad Controller Joystick Telescopic Game Controller for iOS Android iPhone Tablet PC TV Box - iPega PG-9087S

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Another game that works with ipega red knight 9087s retractable controller is Gangstar Vegas: World of Crime. The game might be 'old'  but, it really plays great with a controller. I have spent almost a week with the controller and it's really that good. Only that, there are not many good games with controller support available.

Granted, it's not like your ps4 or Xbox one s controller. But, it's cheap and it's light. Put it inside your bag and pull it out when you want to play your favorite iPhone or android games. It doesn't have rumble though. And, you can't charge your phone at the same time while you're playing. Maybe, in a future iteration?

When you insert your phone on the controller, it really looks like a Nintendo switch. When I'm at home, I just leave my phone on the controller. You can navigate your phone menu with the controller too. But, you need to set it to mode 3 by pressing HOME + X button. It's nice to hold so watching youtube or listening to music isn't that bad.

You'll need to take your phone off the controller if you need to charge it. But, you can still play the game with the controller. So, it's just like the switch joy-con. Once, your phone battery is full, you can put it on again. Pretty cool. Connect your phone to a portable monitor or Tv and use the same controller to play. Just like a Nintendo switch!

  • Compatible with: The iPega 9087s Gamepad is for BT enabled Android tablets and smartphone, Android smart TV, for IOS system, TV box, windows 7/8/10 PC, set-up box.
  • Turbo acceleration function: The iPega 9087s Game Controller make it stronger and more fast when playing games.
  • Wireless Transmission: The 9087s Joystick Gamepad can be 6 to 8 meters wide range of control of the operation.
  • Adjustable angle:Includes a phone chip, the iPega wireless gamepad supports the mobile phone with the screen under 6.2 inch.
  • Ergonomic design:Premium ABS material with ergonomic curve design iPega wireless game controller, giving you the amazing gaming experience. Hands never tired.

My only griped is that there aren't many good games available that have controller support. Many FPS or RPG games mostly used touch screen control. Which isn't that bad but for us gamers that prefer to play with a controller it's pretty irritating. It took me days just to sift through the rubbish to find one or two games. Even then, it's free to play and not a full game.

Gone are the days, where game developers would ramp up their promoting or show a demo of the gameplay. People would queue up overnight just to get the games. They'll play the game all the way till the end and replay again if it's that good. They'll then talk about it with friends or even strangers that had played the game.

I don't feel or hear that buzz any more. All I hear are gamers moaning about the death of gaming as it used to be and the take over of the mobile genre with pay to play or see ads to play ad nausea. Remember what blizzard did to their diablo mobile? Well, if blizzard had thought of diablo 4 and at the same time a mobile version, that might have not stoked the gamers community anger.

I'm still waiting for a real pc or console-level games capabilities on my mobile phone. Doesn't seem to be any so far. Even when there are so many controllers available for the phone right now? I mean, if you want to make a game with touch control, that's fine. At least, make controller support available right out the bat without waiting for gamers feedback!

To all game dev or promoters, if you have any new mobile games coming out with controller support. Just use my contact page. I'll be happy to showcase gameplay of your game on my blog and youtube channel.

ipega red knight retractable controller S10+ emulation retro games gameplay


iPega PG-9087S Wireless Gamepad Controller Joystick Telescopic Game Controller for IOS Android iPhone Tablet PC TV Box

Hey guys,

Check it out!

One other reason that I like the iPega red knight retractable controller is that you can also use it to play your favorite retro games. At first, I didn't know how to make it works but I read on reviews that you need to press and hold the buttons HOME + X to change to mode 3. And then reconnect the phone Bluetooth.

You can also check out the product instructions on the iPega main website and download the pdf for the 9087S wireless controller. Once, I got it to work, it really felt nice playing with the controller. Like I've said before, it's like you're getting the switch lite. Only, I call it the switch phone!

The price is pretty cheap for this kind of retractable controller. You can put your phone on it or just use it as a normal controller. They can definitely improve on it like adding a power bank to charge the phone while playing and rumble. But, that probably will cost more.

It will also be great if you can connect the controller to the Tv. It'll be like the Nintendo switch. You can play games on the go and also dock it to the big screen. I know. I'm just dreaming of what more the products can be. They can definitely expand on this product more.

  • Compatible with: The iPega 9087s Gamepad is for BT enabled Android tablets and smartphones, Android smart TV, for IOS system, TV box, windows 7/8/10 PC, set-up box.
  • Turbo acceleration function: The iPega 9087s Game Controller make it stronger and faster when playing games.
  • Wireless Transmission: The 9087s Joystick Gamepad can be 6 to 8 meters wide range of control of the operation.

  • Ergonomic design: Premium ABS material with ergonomic curve design iPega wireless game controller, giving you the amazing gaming experience. Hands never tired.

My Samsung S10 plus fit quite nicely to the controller. I don't have to worry about the phone falling off. The grip is strong. So strong, I'm afraid it'll bend my phone. So far, so good though. Oh yeah, if you watch the video, you'll see that I put on the switch joy-con cap on the joystick. I thought it'll help since it's a little small.

Definitely, a great buy. To think, I thought I've wasted my money on it. Since it can't play the game Rush Rally 3. Once, I tried other games like PUBG, Real Racing 3, Asphalt 9 legends and even Gear.Club. I've changed my mind. Especially, now that I can play retro games with it.

IPEGA Red Knight Retractable Controller for Android Phone unboxing and PUBG mobile gameplay


iPega PG-9087S Wireless Gamepad Controller Joystick Telescopic Game Controller for IOS Android iPhone Tablet PC TV Box

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I decided to get the IPEGA Red Knight Retractable controller for my S10+ phone. I think it's the perfect controller. It's light, fits my S10+ size and really loves the black and red color. The trigger buttons feel solid and so are the key buttons. The joystick though would love to be a bit bigger.

You can easily connect the device to your phone via Bluetooth. Make sure you switch on the power button before pressing the home button. Once, turned on, press the Home + A button to connect. Scan for the device on your phone and you'll see the name ipega 9087S. Connect!

Of course, the first thing I do is try to play my favorite android racing game, Rush Rush Rally 3. Nope, the keymap is all over the place. I gave up after a while and tried other games. I even download the app Octopus from the Google Play Store to see if I can remap. Deleted it. It doesn't work and full of stupid ads.

I decided to read the damn instructions. Realized that it's for games like Pubg or anything similar. Well, it works right out the bat. At least, I'm able to play something. I was already thinking, I've wasted my money. I also realized that I need to turn my phone the other way round if I want to play Gear. Club. No wonder, the game control seems wacky.

I also didn't know, you can choose 'mode'. I read that you can press Home + X to make the buttons work when playing emulator games. I'll try it out later. Maybe, I can finally make it work with Rush Rush Rally 3. Unkilled, a zombie shooter game also works with the red knight controller. But, the right joystick was too sensitive. I had to gently tap it to aim.

My nephew asked me if the controller will work with IOS devices. I read the box and it said, yes. He plays the game like pubg, so maybe he'll get one for himself too. If you don't want your phone to be put on the retractable controller, you can play it as it is. I find playing a game without the phone quite comfortable. A little weird that the middle part is empty. No biggy.

Some gamer complained about the D-pad. I don't feel anything wrong with it. So are the rest of the buttons. My only complaint is that it doesn't work with some of my favorite games. Maybe, I can request for ipega controller support from the game dev. I'm still dabbling with the controller so, we'll see. So far, so good!

Oh yeah, one more gripe is that I can't charge the phone and play a game at the same time. I'll need to take it out. It would have been great if the controller can charge your phone while playing. I was thinking, what if I leave it on all the way. Nope, too big. But, you can still use it as a phone. Maybe, in a future release?

The ipega with the phone really looks like a Nintendo switch. Only, the controller is fixed. Something, like the switch lite. I compared the size of my unboxing video. I've always wanted to buy a controller for my mobile phone. Guess, the iPega 9087S are ok. Especially, since it works with shooter games.

Well, I'm off to check out the mode. See, if it works with some of the games that didn't earlier.
