My comments

My Sony Ericsson MS500 is white color and priced at S$88. It came with a matching white strap. For the black version, it came with a black strap and a carbine hook. It has only an on/off switch and is simple to use. Just pair it with your handphone and then control the volume via the handphone will do. The sound quality is much better than my Sony Ericsson’s W910i’s speakerphone. I will provide more findings after i put it to more tests.

OTO Power Tap

This is the first time I bought an OTO product.  OTO and OSIM are popular names  in the healthcare industry. They came up with many innovative health products. I have been suffering from regular stiff shoulder from my work due to the lengthy time required to sit in front of the notebook. Also there is the Great Singapore Sales (GSS) 2009 going on, you usually get additional discount and free gift.  So I decided to drop by their showroom and test it out.

The OTO Power Tap (model PT-708):

The device is rather heavy, weighing around 3.5kg. So it is no easy task to carry it while you continue your GSS shopping. It was a mistake and I should not have done that.

According to the OTO website, the OTO Power Tap is “a one-of-a-kind hands-free tapping massager that can drum muscle aches away and transform various parts of your aching body to a state of comfort and well-being! Simply drape the OTO Power Tap across your shoulders, press a button and you’re all set for a soothing massage that will make your muscles feel alive and appreciated.

The OTO Power Tap’s percussive rhythm improves blood circulation and relaxes tense muscles. Massage is also said to improve lymphatic flow, immune system and nerve function, thus helping you sleep better. With its 8 intensity levels and 32 rhythmic cycles, massage with the OTO Power Tap will never be boring.”

The Controls:

This thing runs on AC power. This is very different from other traditional health products where they are very likely to be powered by batteries. With the AC power as a source, this device can deliver more “punches” to the users. It is very simple to use. It is controlled by only a few buttons: On/Off, heat, intensity level up/down.

My OTO Power Tap

The Conclusion:

It has been one week since I purchased the OTO Power Tap. I used it just before I go to bed. It did improve my stiff shoulder and i was also able to sleep better. If you do not have a girlfriend or wife or maid to give you massage, probably you can consider one of these products. If you do have a girlfriend or wife or maid or mum, they will love it too. Highly recommended.

Feel free to leave me any comment.
