SITEX - November of this year

This is probably a big one and especially that there were tons of new things there that took place at Singapore Expo at the end of last month. There might be newer tons of computers, mobile devices and especially for the newer tech brands and new educational schools for same certified courses in addition to Rangers products, earpieces, printers, speakers, headphones, projectors and so on. Of course, there was some gaming show taking place at Alienware booth with some cool-ass computers which were extremely expensive. Alienware Area 51 is one of the examples of the coolness. Inside, the slots were slanted and especially for the fact that there would be internal water cooling pumps connected to the CPU. Hard drives, SSDs and the rest of the components were on the opposite side and not slanted.
There were also security cameras, door locks and networked ones by Samsung which were more than what I saw at Funan Digitalife Mall the last time. Like always, those things were not easy to set up like you would need some sort of engineering skills to do it.
Other discoveries included the 3D printer that allowed you to print figures of the characters or maybe some public facility and of course, Lithan Hall Academy which is another school that provides certified courses. Unlike others like New Horizons or something, this one provides WDA funding discount for whatever certified courses you want to take. And even then, they are seriously expensive to me.
The downside of IT shows like this is that there may also be booths that are brought from Sim Lim Square or something as if those shops are promoting the products there from Sim Lim Square regardless of the brands. There are also other China and Korean brands as well but it may look like Sim Lim Square is the only place to buy those mobile devices from.
There was one company that provided cheaper phone calls and that there was no expiry for prepaid SIM-cards whatsoever. Kind of useful for overseas trips and especially that it still makes use of your current mobile number so that nobody can suspect that you've changed your phone number. The only downside is the local calls in which sticking back to whatever ISP you're currently using is still recommended for that.
But it's not over yet as I happened to have bought something from there.
