How To Do Electronic Shopping Perfectly

Imagine you want to purchase the latest smartphone for yourself. You have checked several online stores with fancy deals and offers but you are still not convinced with the idea of buying electronics from an e-commerce platform. If this is the case with you, then you are still a traditional shopper at heart and why you shouldn’t be? Shopping offline, especially if you are going to buy electronics, has several advantages over other methods of shopping.

Here goes the list of reasons why offline shopping is still a popular choice among shoppers – 

Hands on experience – If you reside in the capital city, you have a plethora of offline stores to buy electronics from. If you are looking to buy a brand new mobile phone for yourself, you have several authorized mobile accessory stores in Saket which offer you to choose from your favourite brands. The main advantage of buying electronics in-store is that you will be able to feel the look and touch of the hardware before paying for it. Shopping offline not just lets you experience the grandeur in actuality but also allow you to compare products to one another. 

Better return policies – Retail outlets like Samsung, Motorola and Apple authorized resellers in Indiahave undoubtedly better return policies as compared to the online platforms selling the same brand. With a receipt, modern retail outlets are easy to deal with when returning the purchased electronic items or using the warranty on it. 

Immediate purchase needs and discounts – If you need to buy that gadget immediately, there is no way that in-stores can’t help with your immediate purchase needs. You won’t have to wait for weeks or even months to get something which you need urgently. Also, with offline shopping, you have the direct access to big savings as you get amazing deals on your credit cards and reward cards.

No need of waiting until the price drops – Many of us have the tendency to wait until the price of a product falls. With their ever-changing prices, you are never able to gauge the actual price of the product. But this doesn’t happen if you are shopping from the retail stores as they don’t have these hourly changing discounts. You just have to figure out the best places to shop offline and you are good to go. 

Instant gratification – Shopping is supposed to make you feel happy about yourselves. You have to admit that there is something satisfying when you actually experience the product and take it home with you. That shopping bag on your arm proudly tells the story of your happiness.

Great Quality Ensured – When you are buying from the authorized stores, you are ensured about the quality of the product. On the other hand, if you purchase any electronic item online, you are never convinced. You are in a constant fear about the quality of your purchase. To make sure that you only get the best quality products from your purchase, there is no better option than shopping in-store.  

The convenience of in-person interaction with products and people offline is still resonating the most among the shoppers. If you are looking to have the best electronics shopping experience, head towards Select Citywalk and get the best of everything.

Smartphones and Their In-Demand Accessories

Gone are the days when mobile phones were used to be just another gadget in our gadgets cabinet and or used just for the primary purpose of calling anymore. In fact, mobile phones have become a part and parcel of our everyday lives in a much bigger way and taken up really important roles. Indians will understand this more in the context of demonetization (wink), after which the preferred mode of payment even at petrol stations has been e-wallets and mobile banking. Same has been the case with shopping as most of the people now prefer shopping from online websites like Amazon and Flipkart, which offer services like doorstep delivery and reverse pick up (in case of return or refund).

What more has happened with the rise of mobile phone as a hub of key day to day life services is that the mobile accessory market has also boomed and came rising up. Here are a few mobile phone accessories that have been at the top of the market:

1. Mobile Phone Cable

Mobile phone charging cables stand at the top of the summit of mobile phone accessory demand. This is mostly because of the fact that they tend to break easily owing to rough use and this sends users looking for more. With the growth of tech, cables have also developed into types and we see there are USB A, Mini USB, USB C and USB Lightning (for iPhones) cables.

2. Mobile Phone Cases

Now mobile phones are also a symbol of fashion and style with companies launching one after another beautiful looking phones. Metal back, glass back and matte finish. This has led to the users also taking due care of the phones they hold and ensuring that they put a phone in a cover or case as soon as they start using it. In the more recent times, companies tend to send the phone with an out-of-the-box silicone cover but the availability of customizable covers has led the demand to rise more with each passing day.

3. Mobile Phone Chargers

What has been remarkable in the development of mobile phones besides the things they can do is the battery, both in terms of capacity as well as the time taken by them to reach a 100% charge. The more recent trend has been that of fast, faster and wireless chargers. While there are smartphones that offer 0-40% charge in around 20 minutes, there have also been brands that have been grabbing eye balls with their wireless charging technology and wireless chargers.

These have been the top three trending smartphone accessories of the year 2019 and one can say that with the smartphone market graph going upwards for all times to come, the demand for these accessories is also set to see an increase. If you are looking for these and many more accessories, mobile accessory store in Saket which is arguably the best in the business is now housed by the Select Citywalk mall. Check it out for some jaw-dropping accessories.

A little Black Dress 

How can we not mention this on our list! Ladies, if you do not have this in your closet, just run to the nearest designer wear showroom and grab a little black dress. This one is your go to solution when you are going for a dinner date or formal party. Pair it up with Red stilettos and a small clutch to look chic. 

Black Tights 

You just can’t afford to not have these when winters are around. Black tights will make your legs look slimmer and sexier that too when you are under 2-3 layers of clothes.

Interesting Breakfast Ideas To Fulfill Your Stomach And Heart

Giving all kinds of warm and fuzzy feelings inside, breakfasts and brunches have proven to be a happy meal for all of us. The good old charm of breakfast never fades especially when you are with a special loved one. Whether you like to have an outdoorsy time or an indoor affair, choice is yours. 

While food brings everyone together and is considered as a good way to bond, make time and cook good meals for breakfast and brunch time. If you aren’t too sure of what to cook for breakfast and are on a hunt of unconventional dishes, then take a look at the dishes you can try: 

Eggs Benedict: One of the most fulfilling dishes, eggs benedict is highly nutritious and tasteful as ever. With a bun on the side and hollandaise sauce on top of it, you can incorporate eggs benedict in your meal to have a wholesome experience. 

Fruits Salad: Fruits are high on vitamins and other nutrients. They are delicious and citrusy enough to induce all good vibes in your tummy and heart. We suggest going for fruits in a bowl meal for breakfast at least once in a week. They are perfect for summer as it gives a cooling effect like no other.  You can take lots of berries, mangoes, melons and oranges, mix them up well and eat it. If you are not into eating too many raw fruits, then you can always squeeze out fresh juice or make milky shakes by adding some milk. 

The Sumptuous Idlis: It is indeed true that South Indian platter has a satiating whiff that can easily trigger your taste buds. Whether you are having it in a south Indian restaurant in Saket or making it at home, idlis are an absolute delight to have as a breakfast. These soft, supple and small rice pancakes are usually served with Sambhar or coconut chutney. 

French Toasts: Differently tasting French toasts can easily be prepared by swapping regular milk with sweet almond milk. French toasts with a dollop of sugar syrup or honey makes it more delicious. If you want a heavy French toast, then stuff it with ham and cheese to make it more filling and tasteful. 

Pancakes: Flat, soft and moist cake when blended with honey and sugar syrup tastes heavenly. With some cinnamon powder sprinkled over, it makes it fuller in flavor. Pour a glass of cold milk and pancakes on the side for a good time!
