Sat down with the folks from Fine Upgrade to talk about doing some giveaways for YugaTech readers this Christmas. Incidentally, they’re also distributing a new line of products under the brand name Cliptec.
The brand was actually a bit familiar to me since I bought a Cliptec multi-card reader during my visit to Akihabara in Japan last year. Still using that card reader up to now (although the red paint had started to peel off).
Anyway, they showed me a whole catalog of products and accessories that I can pick and use for review. They have a wide line-up of products from the usual wireless mouse, card readers, portable speakers, earphones and headphones, car kits, and more.
They got this Magic Mouse look-alike that’s almost similar to the real one but way lighter and cheaper (there’s no multi-touch functions here though). This other one is a travel mouse that’s wrapped with some fine leather. Both mice connects to the laptop via a dedicated Bluetooth receiver and works on a Mac OS X too.
They also have one of these portable speakers (there were several variants in the line-up) that has a built-in battery (rated at 300mAh) and can be connected to more speakers in a daisy chain.
They have various multi card readers and even one with a SIM card slot. The one shown below is a car kit charger for the iPhone and iPad.
Cliptec products are available nationwide and offers a 1 year warranty (yes, they do outright replacement).
Anyway, Fine Upgrade was so kind to supply us with a big box full of goodies to give away to readers. I haven’t taken a full inventory but I reckon there’s more than 50 accessories and small gadgets inside that box.
Will be posting an announcement later on how you can get the chance to win one or more of the items in the box. For the meantime, do add up Cliptec Philippines on Facebook and thank them for these gifts.

Bought a Cliptec wireless mouse. Wouldn’t work with the Acer laptop.
Went back to the store and asked them to test it on their models. Guess what…it worked only on an Asus laptop and none on the following: Gateway/Toshiba/Samsung/Dell/Acer.
One enterprising salesperson decided to firmly press the dongle on the usb slot (without ever letting go) and then voila…it worked.
Right then and there I swore off buying any Cliptec products.
Two thumbs down.

Sam Lee says:
I’m using the leather mouse, nice! Go Cliptec!
arvi says:
I like that mouse in leather!
Paolo says:
This is a new brand but seems to be familiar. It seems to be a CDR King’s competitor. The products in Cliptec are some sort of a imitations (example is the Cliptec’s Slimz-air is a look-a-like of the Apple’s Magic Mouse)in my point of view while I was browsing through its website.
Jean says:
Huwoh kung competitor ng CDR-King ang Cliptec.. Hooray! Finally may counter-brand na :D so pissed with CDR-King not only about the products but also about the employees (of different branches would you believe). Mag-raise man ako ng hate campaign against them I can’t stop my friends from buying CDR King stuffs, they want cheap versions kahit short ang life hehe. Masaya na ako na magkaroon sila ng ibang options for cheap electronics aside from CDR KIng *evil-laugh*
Alexis Mendoza says:
the leatherette mouse looks nice!
Looking forward to getting my hands on one courtesy of Yugatech! ;)
Aldrin Lozano says:
that leather mouse looks classy
Ben says:
is it possible to hack their reader na may sim card slot para maging gsm modem? sorry if this is a dumb question :/
camrychunlee says:
I bought that leather mouse.. it sucks. it stops every 30 minutes. though gumagana naman ulit after mga ilang segundo. yung lalagyanan nya ng battery nabali agad takip T_T. ok lang sana kung mura yung unit. pero in fairness kahit sampung metro layo ng mouse sa receiver, flawless
enchongdi says:
ako din meron yung leather mouse. maganda sana looks kaso ang bagal nya. sa packaging it says that its above 1000DPI. But pag actual usage na parang mas ok pa yung mga sensors ng generic mouse sa cdrking sobrang bagal i think its only around 400 – 800 DPI.
Lucas says:
Hi, I am from malaysia. I brought a cliptec mouse not long ago, about two-three weeks. It’s wireless and having the ability to change from 500-2000 dpi. Being completely honest, I am not very happy with the product. Sure, it has the comfort and i like the shape. i use this mouse for gaming. The downside is that there are times where the cursor suddenly doesn’t react to my mouse properly(i suspect it’s the dpi problem). It’s like the cursor speed suddenly slowdown or stop. This is very frustrating! Please tell me if i am able to I am only using the default 1000 dpi. Do u have any branch in malaysia that would willing to change this mouse? I am pretty sure this is the mouse ” http://www.cliptec.com/asia/product_red/rzs825.html“”
whtie says:
hmm.. conclusion, never buy cliptec products!
Kirmu says:
Bought a cliptec silicon mousepad and its unusable at all, my optical mouse doesnt even respond to the surface. Went back to the store and exchanged for a cliptec leather mousepad and it doesnt work well at all.. totally disappointed on why such extremely bad products even existed… wish I could have a refund instead
