Using the Qmote

After spending a couple minutes going through the documentation and setting up the app, I managed to get the Qmote up and running (set up was a breeze, it probably took more time to download the app Smile with tongue out).

Basically, you can assign functions to specific button presses on the Qmote. Some of the options include:

So what am I using the Qmote for? Well I have it setup to do the following so far:

  1. Set my phone to silent mode;
  2. Set my phone to ringer mode;
  3. Snooze on my alarm;
  4. Ring my phone so that I can find it; and
  5. Controlling the camera shutter

As time goes by, I will probably find more uses for it.

Is the Qmote essential? Not really, but it does open up so many new ways to interact with your phone. I suspect that it will probably be hard for me to stop using it after a couple weeks.

Such a waste really, it has a wonderfully sexy chassis, nice internals, excellent keyboard and a very good price! I enquired if there was an option to upgrade the screen to a better panel and was informed that there was no such option. Poo! The Lenovo Legion Y520 fared much better and by swapping out the bundled solitary 4GB Samsung DDR 4 2400 for a 8GB Kingston HyperX 2400 would push the price of the laptop to RM 5,039.40 (after rebates i.e. approximately USD 1,142.73). Everything was going oh so well until the sales representative came back and said there was an error with the inventory system and they didn’t have any units in stock. Doub...
