We are all curious creatures and when I received a box (not a small one though) of surprise. Well, this box of sweet surprise consist of three different gears and Pandora Micro is one of them!

Pandora Micro
This super chic gear is the tiniest among the three (Pandora Micro, Pandora Mini and Pandora 3). It is portable and can consider pocket size in a way. Aside from liking the striking lime green colour, this tiny little gear impressed me completely.

Physically :

  • Gel band which protects against scratches, spills and knocks
  • Rubberized finish
  • Light
  • Consists of 5 different colours (Green, Pink, Black, Grey and Blue)
  • Comes with a user manual, 3.5mm jack cable, MicroUSB to USB cable.

It is easy to use even for bimbos! Well, it consists of five main touch-sensitive control panel, which are the Forward, Backward, Increase Volume, Decrease Volume & the Bluetooth.

I can tell that I enjoyed playing with this gear so much as aside from all the above mentioned specifications, it also can be used as a hands-free. Well, all you need to do is just pair your phone to the Pandora Micro, and you can use it to answer or reject calls. Pandora Micro has a built-in mic which you can use it at a range as far as 20m away. Hassle free and it comes so easy for me when I need to pick up my phone when my phone and I at two different corners. Once you have paired your phone to Pandora Micro, you may log on to any apps for instance, Viber, Skype, etc and use it like a portable hands-free set :)

How to Order?

First step we need to select the size of the pizza either Personal size which is 6″, Regular size which is 9″ and Large size which is 12″.
Secondly, choose the type of crust we like either thin or orginial crust. I’m fine with both types but usually I’ll get the original crust.
Lastly, pick the type of pizza we like. For additional toppings, add RM1 for Personal pizza, RM2 for Regular pizza and RM3 for Large pizza.
For those Charcoal fan, there is also Charcoal Pizza for selection! Just add additional RM2 and Charcoal Pizza will comes your way.

New York Burger has opened up to 3 branches as of today. The service is fast and friendly with full variations of burgers and pizzas.

This restaurant welcome walk-ins and also provide free delivery service. Making proper burgers to cure the burgers temptation can be tricky to replicate at home unless you have a good cheft at home to feel those American cuts with professional extraction system. But why do we want to go through all the hassle in making American burgers when New York Burgers is able to offer these privillege to you?!

New York Burger is delivering a massive thwack of burgers satisfaction to Penangites in town. I don’t know about you, but I just can’t resist on the offered of tasty burgers.
