Impression is one of the key components of your business’ success. Since it is important to feel and look good for your clients, it is very important for owners to take note of even the simplest detail. However, as reviews and studies have concluded, most retailers start their business without knowing the basics of the industry they are to undertake. If they have indeed done their research, they have zero experience. This leads to mistakes causing many retailers to jeopardize their own business.

Last November, 2015, it came as a great surprise to many when the great conglomerate, PepsiCo has launched their very own mobile phones. Unlike other non-telecommunications companies which first introduced their own brand of mobile phones, many people wonder why this carbonated Soft Drink Company decided on this move especially since there is no direct relation to two different industries. This issue has been discussed after reviewing the emergence of Caterpillar and Marshall mobile phones. The former being known for its machines and construction equipment focused on creating sturdy tool for rugged use while mobile phones of the latter, a popular manufacturer of headphones and audio devices features the “loudest smartphone on Earth”. The PepsiP1 by comparison seems to be homogenous.

Jakarta, Indonesia - Mobile accessories and devices sales have skyrocketed in the last couple of years as technology has also been advancing. The increasing demand for smartphones have also driven manufacturers of mobile gadgets to increase their stocks and double their efforts to innovate depending on the needs of the consumers. But as the technology is fast changing, so are trends and preferences. With dozens of new models and units, one item can be hot in the first couple of months and be totally forgotten on the following days. It is already a cycle in the modern world and distributors have accepted the risk and challenge to deliver the products fast and be constantly updated on the latest releases.

One sector, the wearable, is yet to have that worry since we are still presently at the time when wearable devices are slowly being appreciated. It may not have reached its own peak of success yet but soon, its popularity is set to surpass that of monopods. In their review of the total adoption of people on wearable gadgets, the Peterson Group, distributor of mobile phone accessories and laptop peripherals in Taiwan observes that “this category will have a long and profitable tail. In fact, key products released this year have given wearables a healthy bump in terms of market expansion and popularity”, says Ian Peterson, CEO.

We are currently in an era where even three year olds know how to navigate their way through smart devices. Since it is already a part of social norms and lifestyle, mobile phones and its accessories are already considered necessities. Knowing at least the basics on both its physical features and applications is almost innate in us.

With the confidence that at least 90% of the overall population of any developing and/or developed country is knowledgeable in mobile devices, retail owners oftentimes neglect the importance of training their employees on the fundamentals of the field or at least reviewing the depth of their knowledge. True, retailing mobile devices is not rocket science but it is not a stagnant industry either. Technology, as we all know is constantly evolving and changing and with what is currently happening, the shift is spurring fast and we have to be updated on the latest to constantly be in the loop. Besides, training also enables us to understand the going in and out of the business.

The massive uptake of mobile phones has crossed gaps and formed bridges in many objectives and goals in developing countries. Aside from bridging communication barriers between nations, mobile industry has also provided people a great range of services and information, aided by the spur growth of mobile accessories that enhances phone’s features and capabilities. Mobile phones have also been a good medium in revolutionized information and recording in human disasters.

However, despite being a good tool, a lot of organizations and human rights advocates fail to realize the implications of using mobile phones to good use on development initiatives. In a review of the practice in most developing countries, most humanitarian workers either unconsciously undermine or are not fully aware of mobile phone’s capabilities. As much as the revolution of mobile phones has been able to take down communication barriers among individual trends and cultures, it has not been used much in beneficial causes. In fact, in a survey conducted by The Peterson Group, distributor of mobile phones and laptop peripherals in Taiwan, respondents were asked on the top five benefits of mobile industry. Only 2 out of a hundred random respondents thought of including its benefits during natural calamities.

Experts say our devices are one of the leading sources of modern germs and bacteria which can affect our health. Each of our gadgets gathers dust, oil, grime and dirt. It is inevitable. Being equipped with tools to maintain the cleanliness of our modern devices and combat future germs is essential to create sanitary protection for our phones, accessories and of course, our health. The following are the list of cleaning materials fit for our mild OCD character against germs:

1. Microfiber cloth

This is usually packaged for free along with the other basic essential once you buy a brand new laptop. Microfiber cloth is one way to clean your devices of fingerprints and grimes without using water or any fluid which can cause electronic damages and dangers. It also works directly as advertised. You can just wipe it off on your device’s surface. It is also available for sale on retail stores for a cheap price although you can use a fraud version using any available cotton cloth.

2. Cleaning Fluid

If you prefer cleaning materials which ensures that your devices would look good as new, various cleaning screen fluids are available that can get the job done nicely. iKlear Apple Polish is reviewed as one of the best in the markets of Jakarta, Indonesia and Bangkok, Thailand. What makes this cleaning agent stand out is because it does not contain any ammonia or alcohol which is two of the cleaning agents known to eat away protective layers of your screens and keyboards.

Businesses are currently divided into two types: wholesaling, which is the distribution of large quantity of products directly from the manufacturers and retailing where the goods are being sold to the direct consumer. In each type, there are advantages: Wholesale increases the opportunity to boost sales and revenue and also to increase brand presence while retailing can help establish personal brand. Nowadays, business owners are venturing into both wholesaling and retailing to get the best of both worlds.

Computers are not merely for typing. Its main purpose nowadays is for internet usage. However, with the amount of online scams and viruses that can affect your hardware, extreme caution is a must before connecting to any internet-related software.

For years, businesses and organizations have used protection from any malware or virus that can affect their businesses’ data. However, the dangerous surge in email spams, Web-borne threats- including viruses, hijacks, malwares and aggressive spywares have forced home computers to acquire the same protection.

Malicious attackers can take all your data and hack all your accounts in minutes. The time of attack is even faster for professional hackers who have higher quality and far more advanced technology. Fraudsters always target PCs for their high bandwidth and always-on nature.

With the vast expansion of businesses going digital, retailers of mobile phone accessories have also started to extend their marketing strategies online. But with the number of competition increasing as more and more retailers realize the importance of online presence to boost their name in the industry; the internet has become a venue of a wide variety of promotional antics. Good reviews are important in these ecommerce businesses.

We cannot deny the reliance of consumers on the internet nowadays to know the latest selection of items and choose from a wide spectrum of options especially in electronics. Those who take advantage of the wider edge the internet provides have agreed that setting up an online business can double the profit in a lesser amount of time compared to solely having a physical store. Once you sell your accessories online, you open the doors to a whole new revenue stream capable of skyrocketing your sales.

The Peterson Group, Taiwan-based distributor of mobile phone accessories and laptop peripherals in the Asia-Pacific admits to have struggled while gaining online presence for their own website but becoming an entrepreneur in the ecommerce market is all about whom you partner with and what you know about mobile devices.

Ever experienced listening to a music, found out its worth sharing to your friends but your headset has only two cords (obviously every just like every headset there is)? You then resort to unplugging it off your phone and increasing the volume but no matter how much you strain yourselves to the sound, you just can’t hear it properly. No need to worry about that kind of problem anymore. You can now plug your headphones and enjoy listening to music with as many as 4 other people even if they have an extra ear with them.

One thing to consider when buying smartphones is on how long the battery can last. It is somehow a great issue nowadays on how fast batteries can drain compared to how it was years ago with mobile phone models such as the Nokia 3210 which can last for few straight days without charging. Mobile phone experts suggest that the life expectancy of mobile batteries is the same as before. It is only because we use more applications and are totally dependent on smartphones for our daily activities that our batteries drain faster. We can all relate to the feeling of anxiety once our screen flashes red warning blinks on the battery bar.

On the review of the development of mobile phone batteries, only small advancements in battery tech have been made since the introduction of lithium. Manufacturers have been too focused on the improvement of smartphones that accessories such as batteries have been left behind. And without a comparable energy source, even the most innovative portable electronics (including the Apple Watch) meet with criticism and complaints.

Mobile phones have been increasing in number since its adaptation and acceptance as a necessity in today’s modern world. Different varieties and model of mobile phones are constantly being introduced in the global market. The demand has since soared higher. Along with this, mobile phone accessories which enhance a phone’s feature have also been doubling sales and supply.

According to a market review released by The Peterson Group, distributor and wholesaler of mobile phone accessories and laptop peripherals from Taiwan, smartphone penetration is driving a shift of accessory design to smart accessories that attract higher level of consumer interaction, product value and brand recognition. Statistics in the study conducted in the review shows that a consumer is estimated to spend $100 for mobile phone accessories every year. The same study also concludes that mobile phone accessories are more likely to be replaced than the smart phone device itself. It does not even matter if the replacement or the new mobile accessory is fraud. Trend is more important than the quality. This conception is popular among developing cities especially in mobile-driven societies such as Jakarta, Indonesia and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Now that 2015 is about to end, more reviews are being released regarding the latest statistics in the market.

Jakarta, Indonesia – The government of Indonesia has admitted to have loopholes in its security. The demographic location of the country makes it hard for the authority to seal and guard more than 17,000 islands from fraudsters who are illegally transporting fake products in and out of the country. Counterfeit medicines, illegal drugs and gadgets have the highest number of fakes. The latter of which have been too dominant and mainstream that it can be found in the streets of the suburbs of the capital, lined side by side on the pavement, with policemen seemingly oblivious of the haggle of the vendors and passersby. It has already been an accepted fact in the country to have those kinds of products scattered around and the authorities neither tolerate nor discourage the people anymore.

Warnings continue to be carried on, though, by international organizations. Along with legitimate manufacturing companies, raids are being operated and thousands of fraudsters have been caught red handed.

The Peterson Group, a Taiwan-based company which distribute mobile phone accessories and laptop accessories across Asia noted that the international commerce sector has tightened their licensing programs and inspection process to carry out more operations and jail few more thousands fraudsters.

In Singapore, two men were arrested last August 21 for their suspected involvement in the wholesale distribution of counterfeit mobile phone accessories. The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has arrested men aged 24 and 53 who refused to give their names in the media. In total, about 76,200 pieces of trademark-infringing accessories such as phone casings, batteries, power banks, screen protectors, headphones, Bluetooth receivers, speakers and power adapters - with an estimated street value of about S$941,000 - were seized.

The fast changing world has become too unpredictable that all of us are already expecting things which may seem only possible in our imagination. Technology is changing in high rate that everything is becoming more modernized. Mobile phones are not to be left behind when it comes to the latest application and future expectations. In order to be able to optimize the latest in technology in your mobile phones, your accessories should be able to complement with the latest feature as well.

Analysts have also predicted a lot of improvements among technologies in mobile phones. Many manufacturers and distributors are already supplying advanced accessories in the hopes of leading the aggressive competition. The market is even fiercer in developing cities where imitations and fraudulent copies are trending to be able to keep up with the latest in developed nations. Both gray and black markets are extensive especially in the suburbs and downtown streets of Jakarta, Indonesia, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Bangkok, Thailand and Beijing, China.

Gone were the times when computers were bulky and internet connections require physical wires and cumbersome plugs. It was the time when computers can only stay in one place: either at home or in the office.

Web technology and computer hardware has come a long way since then, allowing us to take the web with us wherever we go, whenever we need it. The internet has revolutionized the way us, humans think and has driven us to greater innovations and inventions, even to the point of making it possible for us to access the world through microchips and devices as small as our own fingers.

Mobile broadband usually refers to the ability of the internet to connect to laptops and netbooks. Providers even designed these broadband to connect to any laptop through the flash drive port.

Bluetooth technology has been quite popular after infrared has lost its patrons. Almost every one of us has utilized Bluetooth for our files and data. It is very important to know that Bluetooth wireless technology allows us to share the data , the voice , the music , the video and a lot of information between paired devices , It is built into many products , from the mobile phones , the cars to the medical devices and the computers.

With the development of technology, evolution has also taken place for Bluetooth. Nowadays, we are also using it to connect and communicate to other people through different devices. Portable devices are invented to connect to laptop and other gadgets. It is also important to note that today’s Bluetooth technology can tether internet connection with a connected device. You can also answer emails with a laptop technology in a very useful way.

According to the Peterson Group, a company supplying mobile accessories and laptop peripherals in Taiwan, Bluetooth devices are now among the most in-demand items in the list of accessories and paraphernalia of modern gadgets. It is considered vital for businessmen who usually deal ample amount of transactions using these devices, for students who are commonly transferring data and information from one Bluetooth device to another and for ordinary citizens who use it for internet connection and file sharing. Thousands of reviews are written on the great impact of Bluetooth to the now technologically-dominated society and how it can last for until there is modernization.

The demand for these devices is highest in developing cities with increasing number of smartphones. Jakarta, Indonesia, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and Singapore are among the most number of Bluetooth usages. This shows the importance of technology in today’s urbanization.

Polaroid or instant cameras have been the mainstream in the late 1940s when a Harvard University dropout, Edwin H. Land discovered it. For years, it has become the mainstream in many societies, paving way to more recent inventions. The device has been gathering acclaimed fame that within a few years after its discovery, Polaroid has already been distributed to 45 countries.

…Then came the modern era.

In the age of digitization and the invention of digital cameras, Polaroid has found itself near trash bins. Since images can now be saved in mobile devices, Polaroid has slowly lessened its usefulness. Nobody wants to store numerous photos in shoeboxes anymore.

Instant film has seemed to fade into the dark for a few years but is now making a comeback.

Protecting your phones in the water during outdoor excursions is very challenging especially during vacations when you are near pools and beaches where there are a lot of things and memories to capture and you have nothing but your own mobile phones to use. Even when you are not in a vacation, phones can also get dunked in the toilet or have drinks spilled over them.

Mobile phones are now promising more secured features to create a more convenient experience to users. The Peterson Group, a mobile phone distributor of phone accessories and laptop peripherals based in Taiwan addresses the concern with the following product review for waterproof gadgets and accessories

We have all experienced it: in the middle of watching a movie near the climax, or when you are in a meeting, and you find in your horror that your laptop battery is almost dead and you forgot your charger or there is no available outlet.

Before you buy some counterfeited battery from the stalls of Jakarta, Indonesia or black markets of Beijing, China which can easily harm your laptop, make sure you are running out of options first. There are more strategies to prolong your battery’s life and it can be applicable anytime anywhere.

Taiwan-based distributor of mobile phone accessories and laptop peripherals, The Peterson Group, shares some technique on how to prolong your battery life and save yourself from an irritating trouble of not being able to finish what you have to do.

Mobile phones are slowly replacing laptops nowadays. However, for those who need to type more than 140 characters on their phones everyday, it would be more practical to stick to which functions better.

Despite the growth of other gadgets with almost the same features and offers more convenience, laptop market is still growing and expanding especially to students and business people who mostly composed a large percentage of the society.

Students nowadays cannot do without laptops. During the old times, students need to bring at least 3 books to school. It gets worse as the education level get higher. Nowadays, even the submission of manuscripts is digitalized, exams are online and note takings are typed.

According to The Peterson Group, distributor of mobile phone accessories and laptop peripherals based in Taiwan, age bracket below 35 is the largest market for gadgets and other digital accessories. A large majority of this market purchases accessories which are considered necessity in school. A survey was conducted in many developing cities and most college students in Kuala, Lumpur, Malaysia, Jakarta, Indonesia, Bangkok, Thailand and Taipei, Taiwan are prone to buying accessories which cannot only enhance the features of their laptop but can also make them trendy.

If you are planning to buy presents for a student, you might as well consider some laptop essentials his gadget can’t do without (of course, you have to make sure he has a laptop first).

There is a very good reason why your laptop bags have extra zippers and spaces. For ordinary people, laptop bags are mere storage space for bulky laptops but for many travelers, students and workers, essential materials like Swiss army knife, pepper sprays, notebooks etcetera can still be squeezed inside that bag.

The Peterson Group, Taiwan-based Company distributing mobile phone accessories and laptop peripherals across Asia has prepared the list of things people most commonly put inside these bags:

1. Power Cord

Of course. Who would bring their laptop and leave the power cord behind? Without it, you can’t stop being agitated while using your laptop, wondering when it would shut down. Your hours of productivity will be greatly affected.

2. Chargers

Many people are using their laptop bags for all their gadgets and devices including tablets and smartphones. Chargers for these devices as well and all the cords that goes with it. Just like the power cord, you shouldn’t forget about the chargers. You may end up buying fraud ones instead.

3. Hotspot

Travelers always anticipate an inconsistent internet connection in every place they go. My biggest mistake when I was traveling to Jakarta, Indonesia is not bringing my 4G hotspot along. It took hours for my email to open and I actually slept while loading Google. If you don’t want that to happen to you, make sure you put your 4G Hotspot inside that bag.

Batteries are perhaps the most important part of a laptop which is considered a necessary accessory. However, batteries, like any other gadgets can easily wear out depending on usage. Some batteries, if treated carefully can last for a year. In cases that we need to replace it, we also might need to know the basics on the best battery that can replace our original old one. The following are some of the most commercialized types of battery already available in the market:

1. Nickel-Metal Hydride Batteries

Also known as Ni-MH, these batteries are one of the most commonly used in the market. Ni-MH can provide inexpensive and efficient alternative to standard alkaline batteries and are available to almost all markets around the world. These kinds of batteries have been too popular that scammers are even able to produce fraudulent copies which are sold in the market to a cheaper price. Ni-HM however has a high rate of self-discharge. It may not be a problem when used after the first few months of manufacture but can cause big issues when stored fully charged and stored for a long period of time.

As a multimedia student, I am often active in extracurricular activities such as speech choirs or modern dances. As a common sense, we should have brought our speakers especially in urgent times when we can’t use our practice rooms. Speakers in our times are those big boom boxes which come in pairs and with hundreds of wires intertwining and lagging behind you. Most of the times, we find ourselves practicing in a mere assistance of our phones which offer poor quality of sound and require us to be extra quiet to hear the music or not practice at all.

Fortunately nowadays, there are aids of accessories which enhance the features of our phones. The invention of a portable Bluetooth speaker is one of the greatest breakthroughs in technology which can help people to utilize all the available resources our mobile phones provide.

Distributors nowadays are competing to provide the best sounding speakers at the most affordable price the market demands. Taiwan-based wholesaler, The Peterson Group states that there is no problem finding the best speaker that fits an individual’s specific needs. From the increasing demands in developing cities like Jakarta, Indonesia, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and Bangkok, Thailand to the stable market in Seoul, South Korea, Tokyo, Japan and Hong Kong, Bluetooth speaker has gained its fame.

In order for us not to be left out from the market and avoid getting scammed, let us review the attributes that make a good Bluetooth speaker:

1. Frequency Response

A good speaker can reproduce input audio signals evenly over the range of human hearing. A good speaker can generate the same output level when fed a 1-volt sine wave on whatever frequency. Both very low bass sounds and high pitch sounds can be perceptible without any distortion. Before purchasing, check the sound the speaker produce in both ears.

Almost all people nowadays are into laptops, tablets and netbooks that are being used as portable computers that can hold important and sometimes classified data and information. These devices are now considered a necessity for school and office use and sometimes, even when you are only into recreational activities and would want to avoid the hassle of putting together a monitor, speaker, system unit, AVR and everything your desktop requires in order to operate. The only issue on having netbooks is when you have too much installed which is beyond your device’s capacity.

Still, the demand for more enhancements is increasing and the challenge to produce innovations which can change man’s life is gradually cumulating for manufacturers to ignore. As we see on reviews, almost every week, we hear new gadgets being introduced.

The Peterson Group, distributor of mobile phone accessories and laptop paraphernalia based in Taiwan and one of the largest suppliers to retailers in Singapore, Kuala, Lumpur, Malaysia, Jakarta, Indonesia and Hong Kong released their top must-have accessories for netbooks.

1. Additional RAM Memory

This is important and may also be vital for those who use laptop and netbooks frequently. This is also a must have for lay-out artists or editors which usually use tools and produce outputs which eats up large space. Before buying additional memory, though, you must check if your device can be upgraded.

2. Hard Drive

Being able to buy additional hard drive for your netbooks and even for your laptops can increase the performance of your devices. Just be careful in purchasing hard drives and make sure you buy from legitimate franchisers. Cases of installing fraudulent hard drives had led to total malfunction of many devices.

Our laptop’s battery life is almost as essential to us as the data within it. Laptops are portable devices with their own power supply in the form of a rechargeable battery. These batteries only last for so long before they need to be recharged. Laptops use power adapters that plug into wall outlets for this purpose.

According to the latest study of The Peterson Group, a Taiwan-based distributor of mobile accessories and laptop paraphernalia to other neighboring Asian countries, adapters are a growing market in today’s generation. When it’s time to replace an old adapter with a new one, research and intrinsic review is required to find the right kind of adapter. But what do you look for from an adapter?

Types of Adapters for Laptops
Laptops rely on two main types of power adapters for energy: the AC adapter and the DC Adapter. These adapters, also known as chargers, are what help convert the electricity from the wall outlet into a form that’s usable for the laptop.

AC Adapter
The AC adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet found in most homes to the DC power used by most small appliances. Laptops, cell phones, computers, and DVD players all use DC power. This is the kind of power provided by batteries, which most laptops use to keep running when the owner is mobile.

Simple phone cases are just not enough. For fellow arts lover, a little bling wouldn’t hurt on your phone (of course you have to be careful in showing it to public to avoid getting it stolen). Since we use our mobile phones pretty much every hour every day and we get to see it always, why get settled for a plain case which doesn’t really suit your artistic and loud personality at all?

Blings on cases are today’s trends. The Peterson Group, Taiwan-based distributor of mobile phone accessories and laptop paraphernalia has exported tons of bling cases in neighboring cities of Singapore, Seoul, South Korea and Jakarta, Indonesia where the market’s largest consumers are teenagers and young adults. But if you want to get more personal and unique, the following are some tips that you can utilize

You can use these monopods to take pictures of yourself and other people in a different angle, beyond the normal range of arm by connecting it to your phones or camera. From the papal selfie in Rome to the great mob of patrons in Las Vegas, the wave rush of these selfie sticks are now predominant that is it now considered necessary to have one.

The Peterson Group, a wholesaler and distributor of mobile phone accessories and laptop paraphernalia based in Taiwan, has imported and exported thousands of different kinds of selfie sticks all across continent. Sales have increased to up to 500% since the company first started distributing it on 2010.

An alarming report of today’s generation shows how this generation has been living unhealthily. Thankfully, warnings have been spread early and that health conscious people have taken great care in their health.

Staying fit and healthy still takes work, but we have a lot more tools to help us achieve our goals and many of them are now aided by smartphones, which wirelessly link and provide additional data and feedback on your health and performance, or just give you a bit more motivation and make fitness fun.

Moreover, we are now fortunate that there now exist a world where people have heart rate monitors that link to their phones and wristbands to track their steps. The Peterson Group, a wholesaler and distributor of mobile accessories and laptop accessories across Asia and based in Taiwan has these list to help you in your daily exercise.

Most of us have traveling streaks within us. When this triggers, we cannot help but pack our belongings and travel to some place that can satisfy our adventure craving. No matter if you are headed in across the country in an RV bus or cross the pacific to Jakarta, Indonesia or Guam, you just have to ensure that your gadgets like laptop, iPhones or iPod are fully packed and ensured. The Peterson Group, one of Asia’s leading distributer/ wholesaler of mobile accessories and laptop paraphernalia based in Taiwan listed three are three critical laptop accessories no summer or any season traveler can do without.

1. Adapter
Not all countries have outlets similar to those in your locality unless of course you are just traveling some neighboring county. You’ll need to check and review local electrical standards at your destination. It’s really annoying to find out your North American plug won’t work in whatever summer paradise you’re headed to.

Last minute types who don’t mind paying a little more can probably find a shop in the airport that will sell you what you need or you can try and pick something up at your destination.

But you can also find out the correct adapter plug with a little research online and then head over to your local electronics shop. Another option is to get an international adapter that covers most of the world’s electrical needs in one device.

Most laptops can handle power all over the world. Just to be sure, check that your laptop’s power brick can handle up to 240 volts of input.

In this day and age wherein mobile phones are necessity and laptops and gadgets are extension of our life, it would be practical for us to buy accessories which can ease our troubles in bringing big gadgets and bulk chargers.

The existence of power banks helped a lot during the times when we are looking around for electric outlets. Finding the right power bank may still be challenging. A lot of it depends on your personal requirements. If you don’t carry too many devices when you travel, then you can buy a small and low capacity one just to charge your smart phone. If you need to charge iPad, tablet, etc., then you will need a one that has a higher capacity.

The Peterson Group, distributor of mobile phone accessories and laptop paraphernalia based in Taiwan and delivers to Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Singapore and other parts of Asia, has these guides for you to choose the right power bank for your specific needs:

1. Capacity

The main attribute associated to a power bank is its capacity. This capacity is measured in milli Ampere Hour or maH. You can’t exactly calculate how many times a specific power bank can charge your device, but the rule of thumb is more mAH rating mean more capacity. So if you have a phone with a 1500mAH battery, ideally a capacity of 1500mAH can fully charge it once. And when you buy a portable power bank, make sure that it can charge the battery of a specific device.

2. USB Charging

Some power banks contain a built in USB charging capability. Some of the older models don’t have this feature. They had a separate cable which one had to carry along with the device. This added to the number of things that could go wrong in its usage. People were not able to charge their cell phones if they lost or forgot the cable at their home. Once the device is charged the cable can be easily folded into the device. To charge the device all one has to do is to unfold the adapter and plug into the required slot.

It seems like 2015 had just had started yesterday. We are currently near halfway of the year and before we knew it, we may be facing the “Ber” months tomorrow. You will have to shop sooner or later for presents. With little time to think of what to buy and put under the Christmas tree, we suggest that you put into your list mobile accessories when mobile phones, of course, are too expensive.

Chances are good that most of the people on your holiday shopping list own smartphones—which is pretty convenient, since a smartphone case or accessory is one of the easiest gift ideas no matter who you’re shopping for. Plus, it’s something that the recipient can actually use (actually, even fraud products will do, but of course, we highly dissuade you to do it).

With so many accessories to choose from, it should be simple enough to pick one or even ten for every person on your list. The Peterson Group, one of the leading wholesale distributors of mobile and laptop accessories based in Taiwan and delivers across Asia has a lot of list to choose from. But how can you choose one out of these lists? Here are the following factors you should review and consider

Technology is changing at a high rate and everything is becoming more modernized. Phones are not left behind and their accessories are being manufactured according to the future expectations. In order to be able to optimize the latest mobile phone experience, then you need the mobile accessories that perfectly complement the modern features that are in your phone. Even developing cities nowadays have adapted the purchase of mobile accessories to enhance the physical features of their phones. These cities include almost whole of America, some part of Europe, Jakarta, Indonesia, Singapore, Tokyo, Japan, Seoul, South Korea and many others.

Technology is giving new meaning to girl power.

While it's commonly believed men are the tech industry’s most coveted market, The Peterson Group finds out that women are now dominating the worldwide trend.

According to Bell in an article in The Atlantic, women in Western countries use the Internet 17 per cent more than their male counterparts do every month. Women spend more time talking, sending text messages and skyping; they are almost the exclusive owners of Internet-enabled readers; and they're the fastest growing group of users on every social networking site with the exception of LinkedIn. Sites such as Pinterest are magnets for women: they appeal to a lady's innate tendencies to organize, categorize and collect.

The gender difference revolves around three distinct areas: our personal and professional relationships, the need for information and entertainment, and consumer behavior. On that note, we prepared this infographic based on those parameters for a broader look at how men and women differ. There are distinct variances.

And now, more than ever, women want to learn more and more about the technology they're using.

Mobile use has spread rapidly, especially in some developing countries. Some poor countries are very vulnerable to natural disasters, and many are badly affected when disaster does strike because their infrastructure and emergency response capabilities are often weak.

However though, mobile technology has expanded dramatically around the world. In a review made by The Peterson Group to the Cisco Visual Networking Index, global mobile data traffic has doubled for the fourth year in a row. And looking toward the future, the report estimates that “global mobile data traffic will increase 18-fold between 2011 and 2016.” By the end of that time period, 10 billion mobile devices are projected to be in use around the world.

With its growing usage, this technology is greatly improving disaster relief and public safety efforts. Countries around the world face threats from natural disasters, climate change, civil unrest, terrorist attacks, scams and fraudulent acts, among others. Mobile devices, tablets, and smart phones enable emergency providers and the general public to manage these challenges and mitigate public safety concerns.

Taiwan - As Samsung Galaxy, BlackBerry and Apple launch their new mobile phones this 2015, The Peterson Group prepares with the latest mobile paraphernalia which can now be purchased by various retail mobile industries in Asia.
