For some of the greatest gadgets you’ve been longing for: Amazon’s Kindle ereader and Nexus 7 tablet.
So you’re going to spend your Christmas holiday in Cambodia’s Phnom Penh. The city today has been transformed so much that you won’t have to fly to Thailand’s Bangkok to do your holiday shopping. On Phnom Penh boulevards, you can see huge ads display of products like Samsung and Sony. In this blog post, Cambopedia is going to provide you a number of websites of local shops where you can browse a range of electronic products and cool gadgets as well as to check or compare prices.
For Apple users
iOne is Cambodia’s largest store for Apple products. All things Apple. There are at least 6 stores operating in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. iOne also runs an Apple Authorized Service Provider. What you can find: Apple iPhone 5, Apple MacBook Pro with Retina display, the new iPad, iPod touch, MacBook Air laptops, iMac, Mac mini and Apple TV.
Hot gadgets
Mtesh (chili) has a wider range of products, not just only Apple products and accessories. It’s an all-in-one store where you can find Apple, Samsung, HTC mobile devices and tablets and home appliances. The store sells only 100% manufacturer warranty products.
Shopping for smart phones
You can visit local shops like Hakse, Sokly and Apsara Mobile. The good thing is you can have an idea of the price tag before setting your foot into the shop for negotiation. You might save a few bucks. Although these local shops are not Apple retailers, but they so offer Apple products. These shops have more brands like Sony, HTC, LG, Nokia, you name it. You can find rare tablets like Google’s Android-powered Nexus 7.

Send to KindleThe New York Times’s Simon Marks writes:
There are other shooting ranges in Southeast Asia, like the one outside Ho Chi Minh City, close to the Cu Chi tunnels, and in the popular Thai resort of Ko Samui. Here, the Royal Cambodian Armed Forces Brigade 70 also has a public range on a military base.
But the Airborne Brigade’s range is Cambodia’s original and the only one where tourists can walk around with weapons and fire fully automatic guns.

Believe it or not, there is a karaoke parlor named after world’s most popular social networking site, Facebook. The parlor is a few minutes walk away from Royal University Phnom Penh.
Facebook is currently Cambodia’s most favorite site among young teenagers. By naming an entertainment club after the site is quite interesting. Time to play Facebook and sing Facebook!
