Gearbest checked: rumors about women are greatly exaggerated
Remember the pain of Mel Gibson in the film “What do women want?” - he did hair removal, painted his nails, and walked in tights, and most importantly he understood only at the very end. Such a risk seemed unreasonable to us, so we created a holiday section and decided to experiment a bit. As it should be, we give a teaser before the kata: golden iPhones and epilators are not in favor, no one chose another bauble and did not demand Bugatti (well, actually, it wasn’t in the catalog). We also did not encounter epic feminine logic - not a single man was hurt during the survey.
We decided in principle not to dedicate the post to gifts by March 8 (you must admit that it was too late to rush about), but to dedicate it to March 8 itself. To do this, we collected the female part of the Gearbest team and asked to choose from the holiday catalog what they would like to have in their home, in the kitchen, in their purse. I must say, the experiment turned out to be interesting - it turns out, in addition to the banal heaped smartphones flagships, girls need quite mundane things. And the best part is those who create not their personal comfort, but coziness and beauty in the house. Surprisingly, we saw a couple of completely atypical geeky things among the answers (the men did not even suspect that this is extremely important in the economy and generally exists) - about them in the end.
They are easy to recognize - they walk quickly, think with concentration and try to do everything at once: to work for themselves and their lazy colleague, correct the mistakes of their subordinates, check the lessons for children, dictate to their parents in an authoritative tone what medicines and what time they need to drink. And in the evening, they look tiredly at their loved one and lean their heavy head against his forehead or shoulder — and become more vulnerable than anyone else. In their life there is always a place for functional and almost unkillable gadgets.

Of the interesting smartphones, ASUS ZenFone 2 4G Phablet ZE551ML got on sale . This is one of the best representatives of the ZenFone line, with a bright 5.5 inch display, Intel Z3560 64bit Quad Core 1.8GHz processor, 4 cores, 4 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory. The main camera is 13 megapixel, the front one is 5 megapixel, and even when talking using video, the other person receives an acceptable picture. The smartphone runs on Android 5.0, supports dual SIM, works on 4G networks. By the way, there is a rather capacious 3000 mAh battery on board, which, with balanced and optimized software, allows you not to look for an outlet in each cafe. But this is not the main thing - the main thing is that it is red.
If a girl doesn’t have a tablet yet, she must appear at her - and all because a smartphone, even with a 5.5-inch shovel display, does not replace a tablet, on which it is much more comfortable to watch movies, work with documents, and even use RDP programs (by the way , a common feature, especially in large companies). You can look at the golden Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 with a 7.9-inch Retina-display, running the Intel Atom Z8500 X5 processor (pulls almost all games) and the Android 5.1 operating system. RAM 2 GB, internal memory - 16 GB. From features - capacious battery 6190 mAh, OTG technology and fast charging through the use of USB Type-C. Please note - the tablet is not simchaty, works on Wi-Fi networks. Current Discount Price is $ 169.99.
From unusual and inexpensive things - a lightweight and compact VOYO VBOOK V3 laptop with a 13.3-inch touchscreen, running Windows 10, with a 4-core Intel APOLLO LAKE Pentium N4200 processor, 32 GB eMMC memory + 128 GB SSD. RAM - DDR3L, 4 GB. Despite the relatively low price of $ 319.99 (with 61% discount), the laptop can compete with more expensive counterparts. By the way, he bends in all directions - it can be safely used as a tablet. This option is suitable for both a business woman and a young mother, who needs to distract her children (or herself) at least with something, and for a student. The main thing is to have a big bag to throw in her laptop. But not so big to lose in it.
For those who do not have enough capacious batteries listed gadgets, there are power banks. Xiaomi 10000 mAh ultra-thin silver external battery in an aluminum case is a good companion for girls who often go on business trips or simply prefer to stay connected at any time. Unlike competitors, the device is very light and compact - so much so that it can find a place in the side pocket of the women's bag. Now with a discount of 28% it will cost only $ 19.26.
Everybody needs comfort: after all, the house is the very fortress to which we return from anywhere in the world. It doesn’t matter whether we rest or continue working, sleep or read - should be good at home.
Comfort in the house is determined by many factors, among which one of the key is comfortable light. Even if you do not have a smart home, there are no switches with relays, and generally ordinary light bulbs are your choice, you can bring in a bit of extra comfort with the Xiaomi Yeelight smart nightlight with a color temperature range of 1700 K-6500 K. The device has touch controls, supports work with a smartphone via Bluetooth: you can change the brightness, select the backlight color from 16 million RGB colors, set timers, etc. You can customize the automatic color change, and this is a very cool feature: if you try to experiment carefully and honestly with the light for a month, you will notice how much more pleasant the process of waking up will be even the earliest early. Our body is very sensitive to color and light, so the lamp will help to adjust the biorhythms. The service life is 20,000 hours, the night lamp is compatible with Apple iOS 7.1, iPod touch 5 and Android 4.3 or higher. The price of the lamp from Xiaomi is significantly lower than its competitors, and the stock is only $ 59.99.
Another light thing for $ 17.99 - Xiaomi Yeelight RGBW , a smart E27 LED bulb (this means that you simply screw it into any standard cartridge you need). It also supports 16 million colors and a color temperature range of 1700 - 6500K. The lamp is compatible with MIJIA IFTTT, supports Open API, brightness is adjusted via Wi-Fi, power consumption is 8W. The manufacturer promises that the lamp will last 11 years - imagine, outside the window teleportation, the mission to Mars, the colonization of the neighboring super earths, and the light bulb is on and on.
In general, ideally it is better to install several such lamps in the apartment - then even without a smart home system you will get the lighting that you need at the moment: bright working, muffled evening, unusual holiday, etc. The case when sex offer.
It is difficult to say whether you are lucky or not, if the girl has a sense of humor - sometimes they are extremely echidna and sarcastic. But living with such people is very cool and not boring: they will not build Turgenev girls out of themselves, flinch and blush from one single scabrous word in the film, and will gladly laugh at you with a black comedy or a thin IT joke on the Internet (and not too thin ). These girls will not give up gifts with a joke. Carefully - everything that you donate can be used against you.
The mini Bluetooth speaker is reminiscent of the hero “The Secret Life of Pets” and is able to please even an adult girl. The device is also a speaker, that is, it can serve as a speakerphone - well, that is, the girl here is talking to you (or you are with your mother-in-law), and looks at such a cute dog. Despite the mimicity, the characteristics of the speakers are adults: 80 dB, 20Hz-20kHz, compatible with Bluetooth 3.0 with most mobile devices. All the fun - $ 10.04.
There is an option and more abruptly: wireless Bluetooth 4.0 column Xiaomi Mi Rabbit . It costs already $ 26.23, but also in terms of tactical and technical characteristics the Mi-rabbit readily handles the mimi-dog: 82 dB, 200 Hz-10 kHz, support for memory cards, convenient control of the buttons (the picture on the bag is the buttons). The hare looks quite Sino-communist, which makes it even more charming.
Even the most unadapted girl sooner or later plans to bake pancakes a la shantele or spoil another scrambled eggs. And then he begins to painfully seek a balance between steamed chicken and broccoli. The world of technology has not remained indifferent to the demands - there are a huge number of pressure cookers, grills and other miracle pans on the market.
The Alfawise HA electric aero fryer (now with a 50% discount for only $ 92.01 is a real roaster on which you can cook without oil, but still get the cherished crisp and preserve the juiciness of meat, chicken, fish, and vegetables. The aerial fryer is cooking at a temperature of 100 to 230 degrees, very finely regulated. Despite the impressive weight (5.75 kg), it has quite comfortable dimensions for any kitchen: 42.5 x 42.5 x 34.5 cm. The kit includes tongs, a fork for the chicken, a stand and most importantly - the grill for baking, thanks to which all the excess fat from flows in the pallet.
They are paranoid. No, really, they really know how to go crazy with a couple of dust particles on the monitor and cat hair on your suit (and how not to embrace the cat before going out ?!). But these troubles are trifles next to when she begins to show concern about the cleanliness of the air in the house. However, in this case, worry more than ever justified.
In our houses there are a lot of upholstered furniture, carpets, sometimes there are at least soft toys and fluffy animals, which intensively lick their beautiful skins, and then itching unceremoniously and dust off. All this dust, particles of skin, wool, hair and saliva fly in the air of our apartments, which are also tightly corked from October to April. Sooner or later, with or without an allergy attack, an understanding comes that something needs to be done with the air. The Xiaomi Mi Air Purifier 2 air purifier comes to the rescue (so far for only $ 173.94), which is able to work in three modes: automatic with an air analyzer, silent night and custom. The device copes with unpleasant odors, dust and formaldehydes.
Sometimes for complete happiness there is not enough pair of trifles - for men, for example, it can be wrenches of the right size or spare mats for a car. The requirements of the girls are also quite mundane and practical.
A light backpack made of nylon fabric of a pleasant blue color is a good option for summer cycling trips and for hiking to the skating rink, especially since the fabric is impermeable to snow and rain. Despite the rather compact dimensions, the capacity of the backpack is large - 15 liters - something that will suit any average girl. Long harnesses are adjusted to the features of the figure, the soft back protects the owner even if there are bricks or pieces of reinforcement inside (well, what if). As part of the sale by March 8, the backpack turned out to be quite budget - $ 6.29.
If it’s easy to please a girl, a wife and a little sister with gadgets, then you should try with mothers and grandmothers - they resist the novelties and return to their favorite habitual things. But for them there are high-tech gizmos - for example, a Xiaomi Mi garden tester for $ 11.67, which “removes” important indicators of soil condition: humidity, light level, pH, temperature. Of course, in our zones of risky farming at dachas, such a device can be overworked, but for home plants in pots and growing seedlings is the first necessity. Pot plants are extremely demanding to the conditions of detention, therefore, the more accurately determined the condition of the soil, the more you will enjoy the home greens. The tester easily connects with Xiaomi Smart Home and is controlled via the app on the smartphone.
Mirror with light makeup - a great thing absolutely for any girl. It’s convenient to do makeup and wear contact lenses. The most important thing in the mirror is the backlight: on the one hand, the device can serve as a night lamp on the dressing table, and on the other, you can turn on the backlight of the mirror part itself. This allows you to see the face in the smallest detail. Even a leg with curved edges is surprising - you would know how convenient it is when round pencils, tubes of lipstick and mascara do not roll down on the floor, collecting dust there, but lie quietly at hand. According to the action, it will cost $ 38.89 - almost at the level of ordinary cosmetic mirrors from perfume shops. In spite of its lack of quality, it is a very pleasant and useful gift, which is almost impossible to miss.
Such a variation turned out to be different, just like the girls themselves: geeks and not so much, economists and designers, programmers and engineers, secretaries and managers. Please your girls more often, and not only on international women's day - because they always please us: with beauty, care, comfort, love. No need to look for a reason to reciprocate.

Music pranksters
It is difficult to say whether you are lucky or not, if the girl has a sense of humor - sometimes they are extremely echidna and sarcastic.
