A great example are the hobbits in the movie LOTR! Then again their feet are pretty thick back then. Ha :D These days, we can't walk around shoeless anymore. Why? Because we might get injured...the eggs of tape worm could penetrate through our feet and grow in our body etc.!\n\n\n\n\n\nNo shoes, no problemo!\n\n\n\nSo shoes are indeed important right? A lot of us have different shoes to cater to our different daily activities. For example, you slip into your Nike basketball shoes if you want to slam some balls; you put on your shiny, black leather shoes when you are off to work; and you show off your green Croc while strolling around in the park with your pet dog! Different shoes for different occasion right? Likewise, I only have a pair of shoes for all virtually everything I do!\n\n\n\n\n\nTa~da! My Line 7 Shoe!\n\n\n\nEnter my Line 7 all-in-one shoes!

You can wear your sneakers on a leisurely walk or to a fancy dinner with Paso Robles wine. The love affair with sneakers extends beyond their practicality, with enthusiasts embracing them as a form of self-expression, status symbol, and collector's item. However, this fervour for sneakers often comes at a high cost. In this article, we delve into the reasons why people adore their sneakers and explore the factors contributing to their steep price tags.7 Factors That Are Driving The Sneaker Obsession1. Fashion and Self-ExpressionSneakers have transcended their utilitarian purpose to become a powerful fashion statement. They allow individuals to express their unique style, personality, and interests. Sneaker enthusiasts often meticulously curate their collections, selecting shoes that resonate with their aesthetic preferences and align with current trends. The diversity of sneaker designs, colours, and collaborations provides an extensive array of options for self-expression, creating a sense of individuality and personal identity.2. Cultural SignificanceSneakers have become intertwined with popular culture, music, sports, and streetwear. Iconic sneakers are worn by celebrities, athletes, and musicians often influence trends and create a sense of aspiration and admiration. Sneakers serve as a symbol of cultural relevance, representing a connection to specific subcultures and communities. The desire to be part of these cultural movements fuels the love for sneakers.3. Limited Editions and ExclusivityOne significant driver of the sneaker obsession is the scarcity and exclusivity associated with certain releases. Sneaker brands often produce limited editions or collaborate with renowned designers, artists, or influential figures. These limited releases create a sense of urgency and desirability, as collectors and enthusiasts strive to obtain a unique pair that holds both monetary and sentimental value. The exclusivity factor elevates the perceived worth of sneakers and contributes to their high demand and prices.4. Craftsmanship and QualityPremium sneakers often command a higher price due to their superior craftsmanship and quality materials. Sneaker brands invest in research, development, and innovation to create comfortable and durable footwear. The use of high-grade materials, advanced manufacturing techniques, and attention to detail enhance the overall aesthetics and performance of the sneakers. The combination of craftsmanship and quality justifies the higher price point for those seeking a superior wearing experience.5. Brand Prestige and ReputationSneaker brands with a rich heritage and strong reputation often command a higher price tag. These brands have cultivated a loyal following over the years by consistently delivering iconic designs, innovative technology, and quality craftsmanship. The association with reputable brands adds an element of prestige to the sneakers, enticing enthusiasts who value the brand's history and legacy. The perception of exclusivity and superior quality linked to established brands contributes to the elevated prices.6. Resale Market DynamicsThe booming sneaker resale market has also contributed to the high prices of coveted sneakers. Limited releases or highly sought-after collaborations often sell out quickly upon release, leading to increased demand and scarcity. Resellers capitalize on this demand-supply gap by reselling sneakers at significantly inflated prices, driven by the willingness of enthusiasts to pay a premium to acquire rare or sold-out pairs. The resale market further amplifies the perception of sneakers as valuable and drives up their prices.7. Marketing and HypeEffective marketing strategies and well-executed hype-building campaigns play a significant role in driving the popularity and price of sneakers. Sneaker brands utilize strategic collaborations, celebrity endorsements, social media campaigns, and carefully orchestrated product launches to generate anticipation and excitement. The hype surrounding limited releases creates a sense of urgency and fuels the desire to own a specific pair of sneakers, driving up their perceived value and price.The love for sneakers is deeply rooted in their ability to merge fashion, self-expression, cultural significance, and exclusivity. Sneaker enthusiasts are captivated by the opportunity to showcase their style, connect with cultural movements, and own coveted pairs that reflect their passion and identity. While the high prices of sneakers can be attributed to factors such as limited editions, craftsmanship, brand prestige, and market dynamics, it is ultimately the emotional connection and perceived value that drive individuals to invest in these beloved pieces of footwear.Images credit:\u00a0Shutterstock"} {"title": "Giannis Antetokounmpo Nike Zoom Freak 5 Sneakers", "body": "Behold the gold-gilded Swoosh of Giannis Antetokounmpo Nike Zoom Freak 5 Sneakers.

It had to be durable and lightweight so that his speed and dexterity on the court could shine through.Available in 4 Different ColourwaysThe sneaker's design is underpinned by a lightweight yet durable TPU frame that offers Tatum and future consumers the structure and torsional stability required for hard cuts, defensive slides, and tomahawk jams.

Your toes will likely freeze within minutes of wearing flip-flops in the winter. What if, however, your flip-flops include a detachable hood that can be worn to transform them into appropriate footwear for chilly weather? Behold the Havaianas x Market Zip Top Slides Flip-flop that can do both!The Havaianas x Market Zip Top Slides Flip-flopThe newest collaboration between the two companies, this shoe boasts a brand-new shape that can transition from summer flip-flops to winter-ready puffer shoes by removing the upper. Yes, this item has a removable, insulated puffer upper that zips on and off, allowing you to wear the same flip-flops throughout the colder months of the year as you did throughout the summer.Change From Flip-flops to Full FootwearThe Havaianas x Market Zip Top Slides are a pair of flip-flops featuring a thicker sole and broader straps than the brand's typical sandals. In addition, it appears to have a somewhat broad profile, which should facilitate the addition of the upper. And sure, it appears to be a beach-appropriate flip-flop with zipper teeth on the footbed's edges. The zipper teeth that they included, however, blend in rather than stand out, so that unless people are paying great attention, they are difficult to see.Transformable FootwearThose zipper teeth are, of course, there so that you can attach the supplied quilted upper, which transforms the once-open slippers into insulated puffer slides. How warm is this outerwear? It appears to be the type of sufficiently insulating quilted uppers typically found on slip-on shoes designed for cold weather. Sure, it's still not the type of shoe you'd want to wear when strolling about town during the winter, but it does appear to be the kind of footwear you wouldn't mind wearing while clearing the driveway or going to the local takeout joint.Versatile and Comfortable Flip-flopThe Havaianas x Market Zip Top Slides combine a cushioned footbed, an EVA foam midsole for comfort, and a rubber outsole for traction, but with a rice pattern on the outsole that appears more appropriate for the beach than slick and cold terrain. Therefore, this footwear is probably best suited for keeping your feet warm indoors throughout the winter, while allowing you to play outside during warmer months. These are paired with a thong-style toe post, broad straps, a nylon zipper, and a polyester quilted covering.Fancy Such Convertible Footwear?The toe post and straps remain in place at all times, regardless of whether the shoe is in flip-flop mode or winter shoe mode, so your toes may always be secured on the post and straps. Even if the top becomes a touch loose, this item will be less likely to slip off your foot. The upper comes with a cinch on the back, so you can tighten it if it wears a bit too loose (although, judging by its appearance, the upper is supposed to be a bit loose). The Havaianas x Market Zip Top Slides come with a price tag of US$120 (RM549).

However I would try to unravel the reasons why I am so in love with Adidas. Do you know which country Adidas belongs to? Yep~if you are a sports fan or not, most probably you have known that Adidas hails from Germany. In fact, the company that is synonymous with its unmistakable iconic three parallel bars is like a household names around the world right? It even produces toiletries for men. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI love Adidas. :)\n\n\nThe brand Adidas was actually founded by Adolf \"Adi\" Dassler after the World War I. So the brand \u00a0name Adidas was in fact the name of the creator-ADI DASsler. See? The truth is, the company was originally founded between Adolf Dassler and his elder brother-Rudolf Dassler. However both of the siblings decided to go their separate ways after the World War II due to irreconcilable rift. What a pity thought. The elder brother formed his own company called Ruda-Rudolf Dassler which was later rebranded as Puma. Hmm...I didn't know this. You can read more about their stories here.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Three Stripes are ever-present. :D\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's my preferred brand. :)\n\n\nSo now...why do I like Adidas so much? Honestly I believe the one reason why I love this brand so much is because of its famous 3 parallel bars or the Three Stripes. Yep~that's the reason why I love it so much. Then again maybe it is because the three stripes do have a symbolical meaning to it and I feel like I could associate the 3 stripes with my life. In other words Adidas and its 3 Stripes remind me of the 3 most important people in my life-my wifey and my 2 babies. It's like when I am playing football, basketball or jogging...I could feel that my wife and 2 babies are just beside me as well. So that's why I love Adidas. Haha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nMy \"Adidas\". :p\n\n\nI really consider myself to be a big fan of Adidas. In fact I will always try to buy Adidas brand sporting shoes if I can afford to. In fact, my basketball shoes, futsal shoes and even my running shoes (Adidas Soltect 2) are all of Adidas brand. Yay! That is why I can't wait for Manchester United's new official jersey to unveil-because Adidas will be the official new sponsor. Woohoo! :) So many of you actually love Adidas?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is what I wear. How about you?\n\n"} {"title": "Cristiano Ronaldo Leaves A Vapor Trail [VIDEO]", "body": "\nYours truly me loves football a lot and sometimes I love to look at commercials related to football. Some time ago I discovered a commercial showing Cristiano Ronaldo running riot against his opponents. Football players, linesman, coach, policemen, photographers and spectators are left in their wake as Ronaldo weaved past them one by one. After wading past all his hapless opponents, Ronaldo effortlessly smashed in the goal and turned around to look at all his fallen rivals. Wow~so the pair of shoes he is wearing Nike Mercurial Vapor is really that good huh!\n\n\n\n\n\nNow he is not doing a sliding tackle~he is being sucked!\n\n\n\n\n\nEven the linesman took a tumble because of the vacuum created by...\n\n\n\n\n\nThe coach seemed so nonchalant at the wake of destruction...\n\n\n\n\n\nPerhaps he knows it is inevitable?\n\n\n\nThe police had to come in to rescue some football players.\n\n\nThe photographers are not spared as well...\n\n\nThere Cristiano Ronaldo...leaving everyone in his vapor trail!\n\n\n\nHe is unstoppable alright!\n\n\n\nInitially Ronald's Mercurial Vapor commercial looked very funny. Then again when I viewed it again and again, I realized how potentially intricate Nike Mercurial Vapor has been engineered. IMHO Nike Mercurial Vapor boot has been meticulously crafted by Nike to suit football players who are explosively speedy, agile and\u00a0skillful, just like Cristiano Ronaldo! His scoring record for Real Madrid is nothing but mind-blowingly incredible!

Never in my life have I worn a pair of genuine leather shoes and now I am the proud owner of a pair shoes embossed with the word-Crocodile.

To start working on your auspicious day after celebrating Chinese New Year really brings in a lot of prosperity for me. :p My very first one appears in the form of a pair of shoes, thanks to my beloved father-in-law. I am really excited because I have not been wearing formal, working shoes for like 5 years. All these years, I either wear my jogging shoes or my basketball shoes to work.

Yes, unlike you guys this is my very first time owning such an expensive pair of shoes. All this while the only shoes that I have bought are of Power Brand. I thought it would be suffice for me to buy a cheaper pair of footwear. But this year alone I have spent more than RM150 buying 3 pairs of Power Shoes. I have to admit that the quality of these shoes were not good at all. I guess this is what we call \"You get what you paid!\"\n\n\n\n\n\nMy very first pair of Adidas shoes.\n\n\n\n\nThat is why I decided to buy a new pair of running shoes which I hope, gonna last me more than a year. After seeking my wife's\u00a0consent, I went to al-ikhsan in Dataran Pahlawan to buy my very first pair of branded running shoes. After browsing through\u00a0(for almost half and hour)\u00a0all the displayed shoes in the shop...I finally laid my eyes on this pair of Blue Adidas Soltec 2 running shoes. You must be asking...why I picked Adidas instead of Nike or even Reebok? Simply put, Adidas gives me that\u00a0sophisticated\u00a0feeling that neither Nike nor\u00a0Reebok\u00a0can offer.\n\n\n\n\n\nAww...look the 3 unmistakable strips...\n\n\n\n\n\nMy Adidas Soltec 2\n\n\n\n\n\nDon't you think it is beautiful?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWearing this pair lightweight athletic Adidas Soltec 2 running shoes makes both my feet feel so comfortable. Honestly my feet have never felt this good before. After I have laced up, I pound the pavement for my usual jog. The difference is so obvious. Running with Adidas Soltec 2 is like running on soft cushions. This is due to Adidas trademark adiPRENE cushioning, a shock-absorbing\u00a0technology\u00a0which takes in the impact when my feet land on the ground. Besides that Adidas Soltec 2 is also equipped with Torsion System which further protects both my feet especially my heel. Wow...so I get double-protection with these new running shoes of mine.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe secrets lie under the shoes...\n\n\n\n\n\nadiPRENE absorber!\n\n\n\n\n\nHeel-protecting Torsion System!\n\n\n\n\nDo you know that when we are running, our feet will be subjected to damaging impact which is 7 times of our body weight. So if you are like 60kg...your poor feet will have to endure 420kg of punishing impact! So if your pair of running shoes does not come with good shock-absorbing technology, your feet (and even \u00a0 your knees) will be suffering in the long run. I am glad to know that both my precious feet are well taken care by both Adidas' adiPRENE and Torsion System.\n\n\n\n\n\nHopefully this pair of Adidas Soltec 2 will be with me for more than 1 year.\n\n\n\n\nI hope with my new Adidas Soltec 2 I can run longer without injuring myself. Besides that I really need a pair of good shock-absorbing running shoes as my feet were injured in an accident last year. I don't want to inflict more damage to my already injury-prone feet, do I? So if you are looking to buy a new pair of running shoes, invest in one that can protect your feet. I bought this Adidas Soltec 2 of mine for only RM159 at al-ikhsan which is a steal. Let's run together folks. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat running shoes you are using?\n\n"} {"title": "The Shoes I Secretly Bought For My Wife", "body": "\nLast night I brought my wife and baby to Jusco Bandaraya to buy the\u00a0Osim Umist humidifier\u00a0to be used in our room as we want to switch on the air conditioner quite often.

Because we might get injured...the eggs of tape worm could penetrate through our feet and grow in our body etc.!\n\n\n\n\n\nNo shoes, no problemo!\n\n\n\nSo shoes are indeed important right? A lot of us have different shoes to cater to our different daily activities. For example, you slip into your Nike basketball shoes if you want to slam some balls; you put on your shiny, black leather shoes when you are off to work; and you show off your green Croc while strolling around in the park with your pet dog! Different shoes for different occasion right? Likewise, I only have a pair of shoes for all virtually everything I do!\n\n\n\n\n\nTa~da! My Line 7 Shoe!\n\n\n\nEnter my Line 7 all-in-one shoes! Although it is neither Adidas nor Nike, I still love it very much! Unlike a lot of you who have different shoes, I only have this baby of mine to accompany me to everywhere I go. I use it to play basketball, jogging, badminton, playing futsal, working, traveling and dating (with my wife)! You see how omnipotent it is! Then again you can say that I'm stingy or poverty stricken! LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\nMy \"Omnipotent\" companian!\n\n\n\nDo you guys know why I am so attracted to this brand, and not Nike, Reebok or Adidas? Well...it is because of the No. 7! Yes! I love number Seven very much and that's why I love shoes from Line 7! Actually this shoes of mine is meant for badminton...but heck, to me it is very special shoes that follows me wherever I go! I bought for only RM59.90 and it has lasted about 7 months now. Sounds like a pretty good bargain for me since it is a multipurpose shoes! :D\n\n\n\n\n\nDon't you just love the \"7\"?\n\n\n\nSo how about you guys? How many pair of shoes do you have? Do you have different shoes for different activities? Mind sharing with us the brand too? LOL :p Have a nice day folks. Take care of your shoes ya.\n\n\n\n\n"} {"title": "Holiday Inn Melaka Afternoon Tea Review", "body": "It is very rare that my family and I would be indulging in any afternoon tea in Melaka. In fact, the Holiday Inn Melaka Afternoon Tea set is our very first official afternoon tea review in Melaka. This is arguably one of the best and cheapest afternoon tea in Melaka for sure! For those who want to enjoy something lighter after their heavy afternoon meal, then you really need to consider such a dainty Afternoon Tea set.Holiday Inn Melaka Afternoon Tea ReviewNot to be mistaken for the usual lunch buffet or High Tea, such Afternoon Tea is usually served from around 3pm to 4pm. To the uninitiated, afternoon tea has its roots back to the 1840s and back then it was usually enjoyed by the upper class in the United Kingdom. In fact, afternoon tea was usually considered to be a formal gathering or sort for the elites back in the old days. Hence, I do feel a bit \"atas\" (high class) when my afternoon tea set is served right before me. \ud83d\ude02Served in a Golden Decorative Bird CageBesides me, my family also joined me to savour this delectable afternoon tea. This Holiday Inn Melaka Afternoon tea set of ours was presented to us in a golden gilded decorative bird cage, which of course, added more class to the whole package. If you like to snap photos for the \"gram\", then this will be your Instagrammable post of the day. Inside the three-layer semi-enclosed bird cage were three plates of dainty desserts perfect for our afternoon tea.Our Super Instagrammable Afternoon Tea Set!So what did we get to sample for our delightful afternoon tea set prepared by renowned chefs of Holiday Inn Melaka? All in all, there were 7 different pastries, cakes and sandwiches. In other words, each of us got to taste 7 varieties of tasty desserts. We had Cream Puff, Scone, Cheese Cake, Apple Crumble Tart, Blueberry Muffin, Sardine Puff and\u00a0Smoked Chicken Croissan'wich.\u00a0All of them were unbelievably toothsome and packed with so many ambrosial flavours.Holiday Inn Melaka Afternoon Tea MenuApple Crumble Tart and Cheese CakeDelectable scones!Sardine Puff Smoked Chicken Croissan'wichCream Puffs and Blueberry MuffinsMy family and I really enjoyed everything, especially the Smoked Chicken Croissan'wich (which I could have more \ud83e\udd24) and the scones. The sardine puff was surprisingly good as well. If you have a sweet tooth, you will definitely love the Blueberry Muffin and Cheese Cake topped with fresh strawberry slices. Then again, I must applaud the chef as the level of sweetness was just nice for me and my family. W couldn't help but find that our scones, cakes and pastries all looked so gorgeous like pieces of art if you like.Our Afternoon Tea BeveragesYou can get at least 2 cups of tea for each tea maker!On top of that, each of us could order either hot coffee or tea beverages. Yes! That means this Afternoon Tea set by Holiday Inn Melaka comes with 4 beverages. As for coffee, we tried the usual Cappuccino and Macchiato. We also ordered Green Tea & Lemon as well as Peppermint Tea to go with our nectarous desserts. I understand that you could request chilled coffee or tea drinks from the menu if you really want to but we have always preferred something hot.One of the Best Afternoon Tea in MelakaHoliday Inn Melaka Afternoon Tea PriceWe really had a gratifying afternoon tea set to say the least.

Recently, we visited Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka to sample its food. It aims to be one of the best Japanese restaurants in Melaka and so far, many reviews have suggested that it could be. So will it live up to its reputation and challenge Fugo Ryori or Wa Zen for the coveted title-best Japanese restaurant in Melaka? Let's find out.Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka ReviewWhen Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka has just opened, social media (Facebook groups) in Melaka was abuzz with its arrival. So many Malaccans have recommended this Japanese restaurant with raving reviews. After all, we do not have too many such Japanese restaurants to cater to our palates, no? Naturally, we were intrigued to discover if it is really that good.Honestly speaking, I am really happy with the opening of Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka as it is just a stone's throw away from my home. In fact, I pass by this restaurant every single day. \ud83d\ude01 Strategically located in Cheng area, this corner lot restaurant is easily accessible via many different routes, making it hard to miss since it is located along the main roads.Fujiya Japanese Restaurant DecorationsCan you see the special spot with the sakura blooms?If you visit this restaurant at night, you will be mesmerized by the beautiful and clever use of lighting, especially outside of the restaurant. At the entrance, a Samurai will greet your arrival. You will need to be seated. More importantly, you will need to make a booking before you actually can dine at Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka. Otherwise, you will leave feeling disappointed. That is how famous this restaurant is.Of Seagulls and WhalesInteresting lighting fixtures!Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka is a bit small compared to the other more famous Japanese restaurants in Melaka. The seating arrangements might be a bit \"cramped\" if you ask me. However, with clever use of visual decorations (dangling whales), warm lighting, and the right choices of colour, the whole space looks more spacious, comfortable, and calming. This is the zen ambiance that all Japanese restaurants should have, no?Once seated, we could either scan a QR code to start ordering or refer to the menu. Of course, we insisted on the menu to have a better view of what we could enjoy. As expected, we truly had a hard time deciding what to eat as there is really a lot to choose from. Thanks to a helpful waitress, we got our orders sorted out.Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka MenuAfter placing our orders, we started to admire the beautiful decorations inside Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka. There were lights in the form of whales and seagulls. There was even a special enclave in the restaurant that was decorated with beautiful, vivid blooms of cherry blossoms. The next time I visit this restaurant again, I hope I get to book this special place. Ha \ud83d\ude01Oshibori-Hot TowelsThis is rareInterestingly, the first plate to land on our table was not food but a plate of Oshibori (hot towels). These hot towels are \"Served\" for us to clean our hands prior to our dinner. This was definitely a first that no other Japanese restaurants are practising in Melaka. Soon, our Shake Hosomaki (Salmon Sushi Roll) arrived to whet our appetite. I love the fresh raw salmon sushi rolls with wasabi.Shake Hosomaki (Salmon Sushi Roll)Up next was our Kamo Chahan (Smoke Duck Fried Rice). Love this bowl of fried rice with slices of smoked duck. Every grain of the fragrant fried rice was perfectly cooked and dovetailed well with the fried eggs. The addition of chopped spring onion complemented the fried rice. Not bad for our appetisers.Kamo Chahan (Smoke Duck Fried Rice)Look at these two rascals! \ud83d\ude02Since it was my special day, I ordered Taraba Temaki (Deep Fried Soft Shell Crab Hand Roll) for myself. I enjoyed the crispy soft shell crab which really combined well with the lettuce, roe, and of course the pearl rice as well as seaweed. With the addition of some wasabi, you would be getting an explosive mixture of flavours and texture in your mouth.Taraba Temaki (Deep Fried Soft Shell Crab Hand Roll)OMG! \ud83e\udd24We ordered Unagi Teishoku (Eel Set Meal) for my father. He really enjoyed his healthy Japanese set meal of sliced tender unagi meat, pearl rice, miso soup, chawanmushi, vegetables, and slices of watermelons. I stole one piece of the unagi (perhaps two) and it was really scrumptious. Now I know why it was so expensive.Unagi Teishoku (Eel Set Meal)For eel lovers \ud83d\ude0dFor Jasmine girl, besides the aforementioned Kamo Chahan, we also ordered Oyakodon (Chicken and Egg Rice Bowl) for her. Do you know that Oyakodon (\u89aa\u5b50\u4e3c) can literally be translated into parent-and-child (Oya-ko) rice bowl (don)? This is because the dish is made up of chicken and egg. This classic comfort food from the Land of the Rising Sun comprises tender slices of chicken, onions, and eggs. They are then simmered with umami-rich sauce before being added to a bowl of steamy hot pearl rice. Jasmine girl really loved this a lot thanks to the umami sauce.Oyakodon (Chicken and Egg Rice Bowl)As for Jordan boy who thinks he is like Naruto from Konoha, we ordered Tori Ramen Shiro Dashi Soup (Chicken Ramen Soup). With halves of eggs, tender marinated chicken cutlets, ramen submerged in thick, creamy and flavourful Shiro Dashi broth, this is a must-order if you like to eat ramen. It is always satisfying to enjoy a huge bowl of ramen, right?Tori Ramen Shiro Dashi Soup (Chicken Ramen Soup)Stealing her brother's Ramen \ud83d\ude02My main course was the toothsome Salmon Shiozake Teishoku (salted Salmon Set Meal). Love the brine in my salmon with a hint of teriyaki sauce. I wish the portion of salmon could be bigger. \ud83d\ude02 Then again I really enjoyed the whole teishoku with fragrant pearl rice, miso soup, chawanmushi, salad, and of course, watermelon slices. This is what we call a balanced diet, right?Salmon Shiozake Teishoku (salted Salmon Set Meal)We did order another 3 side dishes to share among us. The first one was Hawaii Shake Cheese Pizza (Hawaii Salmon Cheese Pizza). Whenever we dine in Japanese restaurants, we would love to order their pizzas. This is because the pizzas are usually different and the pizza crust is usually thinner and crispier. We utterly enjoyed the shreds of salmon and chunks of cheese burnt to perfection to give this pizza its unique texture and taste.Hawaii Shake Cheese Pizza (Hawaii Salmon Cheese Pizza)No Japanese food spread is ever complete without an independent plate of huge maki, no? Behold our irresistibly scrumptious Unagi Cheese Maki (Eel Cheese Roll). I must say that we really could not get enough of this combination of cheese and eel wrapped in the firm but fluffy pearl rice with seaweed. I still could not forget the melting cheese and savoury unagi in my mouth. *drooling* \ud83e\udd24Unagi Cheese Maki (Eel Cheese Roll)To eat or not to eat: He likes the cheese but not the UnagiOur last side order was the peculiar\u00a0Tuna Handdokeki (Tuna Towels). I must admit that presentation-wise, this did not look like Japanese cuisine. For a moment, it reminded me of scallion pancakes that Jay Chou used to promote. LOL \ud83d\ude02 Don't get me wrong, it still tasted good but perhaps I did not expect it to look the way it was.Tuna Handdokeki (Tuna Towels)As for drinks, we had the usual hot green tea. We did get one glass of free, complimentary chocolate ice cream after we had liked and followed Fujiya's official Facebook page. This barter exchange was not bad at all. All in all, our Japanese dinner was a gratifying one, to say the least.Is Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka Halal or Not?To my Muslim friends who love Japanese food, you will be slightly disappointed to know that Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka is not Halal-certified. Then again, rest assured that all the food served and sold is actually pork-free. The only reason why this restaurant does not get any Halal certification is that it serves alcoholic beverages. So if you want to enjoy authentic Japanese food and do not mind the missing halal cert, then this is the Japanese restaurant you should try.Free Chocolate DessertsThis is delicious!So will we return to Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka again in the future? I am sure the answer is yes since it is so near to our home. There is no doubt that this newly-opened Fujiya ranks as one of the best Japanese restaurants in Melaka. I believe that Fugo Ryori is still a wee bit better compared to Fujiya. So have you visited Fujiya Japanese Restaurant Melaka?

We have tried various durian desserts before this but we now have a new durian dessert favourite. Behold the Nestle Musang King Ice Cream sticks. The company claims that this ice cream is made from real Musang King durian flesh. Wow! Really?Nestle Musang King Ice Cream ReviewI remembered vividly that this Nestle Musang King Ice Cream stick was first officially released during the Chinese New Year back in February 2022. Of course, it was a hot-selling ice cream during the lunar new year festival. In fact, I had to go to a few different shops before we could get our hands on this elusive ice cream made from Musang King Durian.Ice Cream Made From Real Durian Musang King!So how good is this Nestle Musang King Ice Cream? I have tried many different durian-flavoured ice creams from various brands in the past and I must say that this is it. Nestle has successfully replicated the taste of the Musang King Durian in their ice cream. You will definitely love the unmistakable inviting Musang King Durian aroma and even the taste is mighty close to the real Musang King Durian. Even its shape resembles the flesh of the durian.Nestle Musang King Ice Cream Where To Buy?The texture was rich, smooth, and creamy, making you drool for more! At times, I could not help but felt like I was eating authentic Musang King durian, albeit chilled ones. Fortunately, this Nestle Musang King Ice Cream is quite common and you can buy them at a lot of shops such as sundry shops, 7-11 stores, supermarkets, and virtually everywhere. You can buy it online as well at Shopee and Lazada.Nestle Musang King Ice Cream PriceRM6.50?All in all, I must admit that this is by far the best durian ice cream I have ever eaten so far. Kudos to Nestle for finding the right mixture and \"formula\" to turn out King of fruits into ice cream. At the time of the writing, the Nestle Musang King Ice Cream comes with a price tag of RM6.50 which I thought is reasonable. After all, real durian is used, no? I don't mind forking a bit more money for really tasty durian ice cream.

If you want to visit Melaka during the holy month, it is undeniably one of the best hotels for a staycation. This Ramadhan Buffet completely blew my mind with its diverse array of gastronomic delights. Even my picky children and demanding wifey praised this delectable Ramadan buffet spread.Swiss-Garden Hotel Melaka's Buffet MenuThis year's Ramadhan Buffet theme that has been chosen by Swiss-Garden Hotel Melaka is \"Citarasa Muhibah\", which translates to The Flavour of Camaraderie.

As expected, there was already a long line of people with empty plates waiting to taste the delectable \"Kambing Golek.\" The fragrant Kambing Briyani complemented the grilled lamb with its soft, fluffy texture.

They had more than one serving, which was crunchy on the outside and incredibly tasty on the inside, thanks to its filling. My kids were busy dipping murtabak into the dal, so it must have been delicious. We then tried the amazing spread of sushi, which was also incredibly good. I am surprised that this Ramadan Buffet still offers Japanese delicacies for us to have more varieties. Those looking for a less spicy option can try western spaghetti and all kinds of pasta. I ordered mine with a chicken bolognese sauce on the side. I was so surprised when I bit into my pasta...it was so soft and springy at the same time-AL DANTE.

Any hotel that provides a free flow of gourmet-style coffee deserves my attention and a mention. After my filling meals, I drank at least four cups of coffee. Unfortunately, there is a limit to how much I can drink. If I could stay longer, I'm sure I could have a few more lattes and cappuccinos. \ud83d\ude01Of Keropok and KerepekCan you see me? \ud83d\ude02Beverages: Choose What You Want To DrinkI came here for the coffee machines \ud83d\ude06Let's Enjoy Our Ramadan Buffet Dinner!Greta food and amazing ambience!Overall, my family and I thoroughly enjoyed the good food here and hope to return to sample more of their delectable morsels of cuisines and desserts.

For the uninitiated, abalones are the must-have premium delicacies during the lunar new year besides the white pomfret fish. We have always had abalones during our most celebrated festival but not one which is this huge and of course expensive.Calmex Abalone Review-The Most Expensive Abalone I Have EatenApparently, the Calmex Abalone we had sampled is harvested fresh from Mexico and canned by Ocean Garden Products which has been in this business for the past 50 years. It is understood that Calmex Abalones are wild abalones and only the finest will be chosen. It has been regarded as one of the best abalones in the world thanks to its distinctive strong flavour, famous tasty texture, and of course, its crazy, huge size. Are you curious to find out why it is regarded as one of the most expensive abalones in the world? Read on to find out.Why is Calmex Abalone So Expensive?My family and I have enjoyed abalones on a regular basis as they are becoming increasingly affordable. The common canned abalone prices that you can find in supermarkets can range from RM20 to RM120. You can even get one single abalone as cheap as RM5 in hypermarkets like Lotus's during the Chinese New Year. So why is Calmex Abalone so expensive?Look at its HUGE size!For starters, Calmex Abalone is so damn freaking expensive thanks to its HUGE size. The one we had eaten was not only thick and big but also had a whopping nett weight of 454 grams (16 oz) which is crazy enormous. As you can see from my photo, this Calmex Abalone is almost as big as my palm and definitely bigger than my clenched fist. Yes! So in our pink can of Calmex Abalone, there is only one gigantic abalone inside of it.Almost as big as my palm!Apart from that, Calmex Abalone is expensive as only the best wild abalone of the required size will be harvested. The species of wild abalone chosen is the yellowish pink abalone which is scientifically known as Haliotis Corrugata. Since all Calmex Abalones are hand-harvested from the wild instead of being farmed, their quantities are really limited and that is why each can will cost you a lot of money. Then again, I assure you that you will be enjoying the finest, premium abalone so it is worth every single penny spent.How To Identify Authentic Calmex AbaloneBuying Calmex Abalone to be enjoyed with family members is very costly no thanks to its expensive price tag. Our Calmex Mexican Abalone is sold at an eye-watering price of RM799 (US$199). So how can we ensure that this wild Mexican abalone that we purchase is original? In other words, how can we identify an authentic Calmex Abalone so that we will not be cheated? You do not want your so-called most expensive abalone to turn out to be fake, no?Yes! This is authentic Calmex Abalone alright!The authenticity of the Calmex Abalone can be verified by looking at its iconic pink lithographed can. The lithographed top of the can is also embossed with the name \"CAL MEX\" from the inside. Moreover, the top of the can is also printed with the legend \"Ocean Garden Products Inc\" and Abalone Product of Mexico\" inside the red ship wheel design. By checking these features, you can minimize the risk of buying a counterfeit Calmex Abalone.Do You Still Need To Cook Canned Calmex Abalone?The answer is no. You do not need to cook your canned Calmex Abalone. Out of the can, the abalone can already be served as it has been cooked. So you can eat it straight from the can. Of course, we chose to reheat it so that it tasted better. Besides the abalone, there is also some soup of water and salt that you can use as you cooking broth or as a sauce.Ready-to-eat abalone out of the can!Rest assured that the Mexican Calmex Abalone has been cleaned, bled and had its gut trimmed before being cooked and canned. Hence, the moment I opened the can I was really happy to see the huge, \"golden\" abalone waiting to be served. It was quite a sight to behold as we have never ever seen such a huge abalone in our life before.How to Eat Calmex AbaloneAs Calmex Abalone is ready to be served and eaten, you can enjoy it straight from the can but it will taste even better with your other dishes and of course, rice. Though no cooking is needed, it is highly suggested that you reheat your Calmex Abalone to maintain its tenderness and taste. You can also simply reheat the abalone together with its soup by using a microwave. Voila! Your huge, most expensive abalone is ready to be eaten.I am ready to slice up this huge abalone!After reheating our abalone, we decided to slice it into thin slices and mix them together with our other dishes. We got at least 20 slices at least which is a lot. We then mixed our slices of Calmex Abalone together with broccoli together with lots of delicious shiitake mushrooms. Finally, the soup from the can which had been seasoned was used as a garnish to complete our serving abalone.Calmex Abalone ReviewShould you be paying RM799 or US$200 just for a can of Calmex Abalone? The answer is a resounding yes if you can afford to. Honestly speaking, I have never eaten such a delicious abalone before in my life before. Tipping the scale at\u00a0454 grams (16 oz), this huge wild Mexican abalone is really worth its weight in gold. After all, it is the most expensive abalone I have ever tried in my entire life.I am not trying to exaggerate but this premium Calmex Abalone was ridiculously delicious. It was tender, juicy and flavoursome. Once you have tried it, you will always remember its unforgettable taste and texture. Similar to scallop and squid, it was lusciously delectable thanks to its exquisitely distinct and unique flavour. Now I know why a lot of people are willing to fork out a lot of money for this huge abalone.It is time to enjoy our RM799 (US$200) expensive abalone!We really could not get enough of its appetizing buttery and rich salty taste. Its perfect chewiness texture also hits the right spot, making it so irresistible. Thanks to its large size, our sliced Calmex Abalone still tasted like a scrumptious steak. Amazingly, this abalone was really fresh for a canned abalone. After all, only the finest and premium quality wild abalone will be hand-harvested by divers at the bottom of the seabed. So I am giving a full 5-star rating for Calmex Abalone and I really hope I get to enjoy this every Chinese New Year.

Apparently, this dim sum restaurant is very famous with the locals and foreign tourists alike.Always Order Your Tea First Before Enjoying Your Dim SumWe were glad that we left our hotel early that morning.

All the tables have had ample distances which of course gave us peace of mind while we were dining in to enjoy our traditional oriental breakfast.Restoren Zim Sum Menu-What Dim Sum To Eat?You will be spoilt for choices!After being seated, a waitress came and asked us what we wanted to have for our beverages.

Let's find out what we had indulged in, shall we?Some of the Dim Sum We Had OrderedWhich one do you want?No dim-sum breakfast will ever be complete if you do not have Har Gow or Xia Jiao (\u867e\u997a) to begin with. We loved our shrimp dumplings which contained fresh, springy shrimp and some pork lard, wrapped in a delicate rice flour skin. Some claim that the quality and taste of Har Gow define a dim sum restaurant and the ones that we had could clearly vouch for Restoren Zim Sum.

I had a bite and it was really good.Heavenly Deep-fried Dim SumWho can resist the temptations of the deep-fried wonders!Our plate of fried radish cake (\u83dc\u5934\u7cbf) was equally appetizing thanks to its fragrant wok scent and slices of my favourite lap cheong (\u814a\u80a0) also known as Chinese Sausage. However, the best dim sum I had at Restoren Zim Sum was the irresistible minced pork balls wrapped with bacon strips. The combination of the savoury broth together with the tender bacon as well as the luscious minced pork inside, made me crown this dim sum dish as the Kin!

It is quite similar to the previous Nasi Lemak Atuk that we had earlier this year. We also had colonel rice with fried chickens.

Since it is the Durian season in Malaysia right now, my wife and I wanted to try their Durian desserts instead. We checked and they were serving 9 to 10 different desserts with Durians in them. See? Not easy to decide. LOL \ud83d\ude01Behold our Durian Cendol Desserts!Let's dig in!As we had just taken our dinner, we could only take in another 2 serving of desserts for supper. After much deliberation, we finally ordered Durian Pulp Cendol and Durian Kaw Kaw Cendol desserts. These would be our very first desserts from Justberrys Dessert House. After waiting around 20 minutes as our home is situated roughly 16km from the cafe, our durian desserts had finally been delivered.Nothing beats delicious Durian desserts after dinnerWifey said it was really good!The kids absolutely loved their Durian cendol!Do you want to try some?Durian Kaw Kaw CendolDurian Pulp CendolMy expectations were kinda high as I have seen photos of the desserts and the reviews were generally good as well.

We have previously dined in Fugo Ryori Melaka and after that visit, we decided to patronize Wa Zen Melaka for my wife's birthday. Obviously, this birthday dinner had taken place before the MCO. So how does Wa Zen compare to Fugo Ryori? Let's find out.Wa Zen Melaka Serves Authentic Japanese CuisineWelcome to one of the best Japenese restaurants in Melaka.If you ask any Japanese food lovers for their recommendations of Japanese cuisines in Melaka, Wa Zen Japanese Melaka is definitely one of the renowned names that will be mentioned along with Fugo Ryori. Interestingly, both of these Japanese restaurants are situated very close to one another in Melaka Raya (Melaka) but I am sure they are not affiliated in any way. Guess, a lot of the good food in Melaka can be found in Melaka Raya.Zen-like interior design at Wa Zen MelakaUnlike Fugo Ryori, Wa Zen Melaka seemed to be a bit more spacious compared to the former as the restaurant consists of two conjoined units. Wooden furniture and fixtures can be seen everywhere in Wa Zen Melaka for its decorations and interior design, giving out that zen-like ambiance that is synonymous with Japanese restaurants. Together with the dimly lit atmosphere, you will have a great setting for a romantic dinner.Let's start ordering our food!Wa Zen Melaka prides itself in serving authentic Japanese food and that made ordering what we wanted to eat kind of difficult for us. Looking at the menu confirmed our initial dilemma but still, we have to decide as we only have that much space in our tummies. The first to land on our dining table was Karei Udon (RM18). We particularly love this lip-smacking udon in Japanese-style curry to whet our appetite. It was spicy but just nice for our liking.Karei UdonAvocado Unagi MakiLove the combination of unagi, avocado and mango!Our next Japanese dish was the unbelievably tasty Avocado Unagi Maki\u00a0(RM28). This certainly had raised my eyebrows. I couldn't believe that this unagi could be so delicious. The reverse rice roll filled with unagi and cheese, topped with avocado and mango. The combination of avocado, mango, and unagi had really brought out that tantalizing fusion aftertaste.Yaki UdonKatsu Karei RiceYou just can't get enough of Japanese curryUp next we had the \"playful\" Yaki Udon (RM22) which your taste buds would surely have fun trying to decipher to ingredients used. Our Japanese-styled fried udon with vegetables and meat was really a delight. Like I have aforementioned, our family is a big fan of spicy food and Japanese curry, so we ordered Katsu Karei Rice (RM22). Nothing beats eating fragrant pearl rice topped with deep fried pork belly and course the curry from the Land of The Rising Sun.Salmon Tempura MakiExquisite and of course tastyAfter savouring the Avocado Unagi Maki, we tried another different assortment of Maki. Cut into 8 pieces, the Salmon Tempura Maki (RM24) were really colourful and flavourful. We truly enjoyed our deep fried reverse rice roll filled with crab stick and salmon in batter. So many flavours to enjoy in one single bite...and ouh yeah don't forget to dip it with the refreshingly piquant wassabi.GyozaBacon PizzaNo feast would be perfect with the addition of one or two side orders right? To satisfy the \"gluttons\" in us, we ordered a plate of gyoza (RM10) to complement our meal. The fried dumplings were really delectable especially when you dip them into the Japanese soy sauce. We also really liked the crispy and aromatic Bacon Pizza (RM24). Dressed with fish roe and chunks of avocado, the pizza was surprisingly good. Then again, I still prefer the Shake Pizza from Fugo Ryori which was more crispy and luscious.Coco and Vanilla Ice Cream WaffleJasmine girl posing with our beverages \ud83d\ude01I guess the 4 of us had walloped quite a lot of food, right? *Buuurppp* Of course, since this was a birthday celebration, we should at least have something sweet at the end, no? The dessert that we ordered was Coco and Vanilla Ice Cream Waffle (RM15) which was a fitting, chilling treat to sump up wifey's dinner. As for beverages, we quenched our thirst and extinguished our flaming taste buds with apple juice, orange juice and not to forget the must have Japanese beverage-hot green tea.Dining with your family is always a priceless moment!Wifey with her 2 big darling babies \ud83d\ude0dHappy birthday my beloved wifey \ud83d\ude18All in all, we truly enjoyed ourselves in Wa Zen Melaka. My wife was of course very happy to be able to celebrate her big day in one of the best Japanese restaurants in Melaka. It is definitely up there along with Fugo Ryori when it comes to mouth-watering authentic Japanese cuisines. If you want to indulge in fresh, scrumptious and \"proven\" Japanese food, then you really need to give Wa Zen Melaka a try.Wa Zen Japanese Restaurant MelakaAddress:\u00a038, Jalan Melaka Raya 15, Taman Melaka Raya, 75000 Melaka.Website:\u00a0https://www.wazen.com.myContact:\u00a006-2823882Opening Hours:\u00a0Daily (12:30p.m.-3:30pm, 5:30-8:00p.m.)Wa Zen Japanese Restaurant Melaka Map"} {"title": "8 Malaysian Food That You Must Not Miss", "body": "Malaysian food is the highest pinnacle of pleasure for food lovers.

The Sheek Kebab was not bad at all with its meatball like texture that bursts with flavours in your mouth. Both were being presented in skews to entice you to go get them (which I did). \ud83d\ude01Try Chicken Tikka and Sheek KebabThe fiery Chicken TikkaThe flavourful Sheek KebabSavour them with these sauces!No Ramadhan Buffet will be complete without lemang right? I love how fragrant the lemang is as it was wrapped with aromatic banana leaves before being stuffed into bamboos to be cooked. Dip the nicely cut lemang with sambal and green chilli and you will be treating yourself to a lip-smacking dinner for sure! Another must-have during Ramadhan buffet is of course roasted lamb. The ones that we had was succulent and flavourful; It was so irresistible that I had to help myself to a few more servings. Ha \ud83d\ude0bIndulge In a Variety of Kuih-Muih and DelicaciesCendol and Ais Kacang for Buka PuasaThe perfect snack: Kurma + WalnutOf course, no Ramadhan Buffet will be complete without an assortment of kuih, right? With so many choices of desserts ranging from nectareous \"kuih-muih\" to bite-size Kurma with Walnut, one will definitely be spoilt for choices. I know that my daughter was really swooned by her \"dodol\". And don't forget to try the hotel's signature Apam Balik. All in all, my family and I certainly enjoyed ourselves to the max thanks to this incredulous buffet.

Situated along Victoria Street in Georgetown, it is not only a cafe serving cold \"chilling\" desserts but also a place for you to cool off thanks to its icy room temperature. Yes! This eatery is aptly named Ice Cafe because you can enjoy your food in a freezing, cold ambience. It is also the very first ice-themed cafe in Malaysia!Ice Cafe Penang-The Coolest Cafe In George TownFor the uninitiated, Ice Cafe Penang is located on the 1st Floor of a building which is a stone's throw away from The Canteen-China House. That means you have to take a flight of steps before you could feel the drop in temperature. The moment you arrived at the doorstep, you will be greeted by a fantasy-like entrance. Push the door open and you are now in an icy, magical place that appears to be the craft of Elsa. We didn't see the Ice Princess though. \ud83d\ude02Are you ready to step into a Winter Wonderland?It is evident that we visited Ice Cafe Penang for its \"icy\" interior and to experience dining in a \"freezing\" cafe. We visited the cafe around evening time and it was indeed quite cold, probably around 20\u2103 with all the air conditioners blowing at full blast. Thankfully, we were the only ones and hence had the whole winter wonderland to ourselves.Ice Cafe Penang looks like an Ice Castle!We need to find an even \"colder\" spot \ud83d\ude0bAfter admiring the wintry cafe for a moment, we started to order our desserts. Judging from the menu, Ice Cafe Penang does sell mouth-watering seafood. Unfortunately, we were only there for appetizers before heading to Chulia Street for local street food. After scrutinizing the menu for desserts, we made up our mind to try their Bubble Waffle With Ice Cream and Cream Puff With Ice Cream. We should indulge in cold food right to match the theme of our cafe. Ha \ud83d\ude01You can find a life-size Igloo and a few polar bears in Ice CafeJordan and Jasmine could not get enough of the IglooSay Hi to the polar bears \ud83d\ude4bIn no time, we began to explore this Ice Castle. Our kids have a fun time getting in and out of the huge igloo which looks like the real thing. Standing next to the igloo were a few adorable, furry polar bears. We then checked out a big room filled with icy furniture and of course lots of Christmas trees. The Ice Bed and bathtub were really cold to touch. And there were even cubes of \"ice\" filling the tub for those who want a chilling dip. Ouh! There was a fireplace but no sparks were flying. Indeed we had a lot of fun and took many pictures in this amazing Ice Cafe Penang. \ud83d\ude0aYou Will Love The Frozen Ice-Themed DecorationsI bet this is where Elsa sleepsWhat is in this cage?There's even a fireplace!It's really cold *shivering*Who wants to take an iced bath?Soon, our desserts made their way to our table. Up first was the Bubble Waffle With Ice Cream (RM24). I love the waffles which were crispy and thanks to the ice cream and chocolate Hershey syrup, the whole plate of dessert was truly dainty and delicious. Though I am not a \"fruity\" person, I thought the Kiwi slices, strawberry, Attap Chee, and red beans truly complement the scoops of ice cream and bubble waffles.Bubble Waffle with Ice CreamCream Puff with Ice CreamWho wants some sweet treats?Up next was our Cream Puff With Ice Cream. Instead of waffles, cute cream puffs were the main attractions together with a few sticks of chocolatey love letters as well as 2 scoops of ice cream. This time around fragrant caramel was used to garnish our dessert, complete with (again) Kiwi slices, strawberry, Attap Chee and a few red beans. Both our desserts were equally enjoyable and pleasantly sweet. I bet being in a cold, freezing room did help to elevate its texture and taste huh!Ice Cafe Penang Desserts MenuIce Cafe Seafood MenuHopefully, we could return to try their seafood.All in all, my whole family enjoyed the desserts and definitely had an awesome time exploring this beautiful Winter Wonderland. We hope that we could return one day to try out their seafood platter as well as other icy desserts. Some say that the price is a bit expensive but I guess it is justified as you need a lot of electricity to maintain this Frozen Kingdom right? Those who love to take Instagrammable photos should really pay Ice Cafe Penang a visit. You will have lots of fun here. At least I know we did. So if you plan to visit Penang, Ice Cafe is definitely a must-visit for you and your family. \ud83d\ude0bIce Cafe PenangAddress: 193 (Level-1), Lebuh Victoria, George Town, 10300 Pulau Pinang.Facebook: www.facebook.com/IceCafeContact: 04-2621193Opening Hours: Daily (10:30p.m. - 7:30p.m.)Map of Ice Cafe Penang"} {"title": "Wing Heong Bak Kwa (Dried Meat) Town Gift Box", "body": "Chinese New Year is just 2 weeks away and by now a lot of us are busy stocking up our food and snacks.

Do you know that each piece of Wing Heong Bak Kwa is created by smoking the dried meat over a bamboo mesh.

Though it might not be easy to grill the slices of dried meat over a bamboo mesh, the people behind Wing Heong Bak Kwa believes in producing the best bak kwa! Perhaps that is why their dried meat is unbelievably delicious.Learn about the history of Wing HeongMarinated with their secret family sauce, each slice of the Wing Heong Bak Kwa is made only from first-grade meat that has never been frozen before!

Grilled to perfection over a bamboo mesh, each bite of the dried meat is incredibly succulent and tasty. In fact, there is not a hint of dryness at all even though it is supposed to be \"dried\" meat. Dayum!

So besides home-cooked meals, sometimes we love to indulge in fast food as well. So yesterday we tried Nasi Atuk KFC, Zinger Stacker and Durian Balls\u00a0(and of course more) for our dinner. After all we need to support local business right?Nasi Atuk KFC, Zinger Stacker and Durian Balls For DinnerReady to dig in!I have been wanting to try Nasi Atuk KFC for quite some time now. I wanted to know how does Nasi Atuk KFC compare to Nasi Lemak McD. McDonald's have been doing a great job with their version of Nasi Lemak which I would rate as great and even better than some Nasi Lemak being sold elsewhere. Of course the Nasi Lemak from McDonalds is pricier than the ordinary version.Nasi Atuk KFC-Is it good?Not bad I would say.We ordered 3 boxes of Nasi Atuk KFC. Each box consisted of 2 pieces of spicy fried chicken, hard boiled egg, anchovies, peanuts, cucumber, sambal and of course nasi lemak. I love how fragrant and creamy the rice was. The 2 pieces of spicy fried chickens that we had were crispy and of course juicy. My wife and daughter prefer the fried chicken from McDonald's but I have always been a big fan of KFC.Nasi Atuk KFC or Nasi Lemak McD?The spiciness of the sambal was just nice!Don't forget to eat your Nasi Atuk KFC with \"Atuk\" (Grandpa) Ok!Another interesting thing about Nasi Atuk KFC was the sambal. Unlike McDonald's sambal, the sambal for Nasi Atuk KFC is less spicy and came with a hint of sweetness. So if you cannot stand the spiciness of Nasi Lemak McD, you might want to opt for this version from KFC. So which is better? McD or KFC? It depends on your preference and it boils to the fried chicken and the sambal. My biased vote goes to Nasi Atuk KFC but then again they are mighty close and both are equally delicious. Nasi Atuk KFC comes with a price of RM17.99.Zinger Stacker For Burger LoversLook at the oozing cheese and mayonnaiseZinger Stacker is indeed sinfully lip-smacking!Besides Nasi Atuk KFC, I also ordered another gargantuan Zinger Stacker for myself! It has been a while since I last had such a huge burger for dinner. If you love meat, you will definitely want to try out Zinger Stacker which is made of 2 spicy zinger fillets which are super crispy on the outside and damn tender on the inside. Throw in oozing cheese and you will be getting a burger that will make you drool non-stop! I know I truly enjoyed mine! Dayum! Who cares about calories right? This reminds me of the all-meat Zinger Double Down.\u00a0Durian Balls with premium D24 Durian FillingThese durian balls were heavenly!Besides Nasi Atuk KFC and Zinger Stacker, we also tried the Durian Balls from KFC. I was skeptical initially as it says that each of the Durian Balls contains 100% pure premium D24 Durian filling. The moment I sunk my teeth into my Durian Ball (there were only 5), the warm durian filling started to ooze out and oh boy! It felt so good that my taste buds were also dancing. Certainly, authentic D24 Durian had been used for the filling indeed. Even my wife gave her nod of approval, saying it was really great.The nuggets and fries were not bad at all!We all enjoyed our dinner from KFC!So which one do you like more? Nasi Lemak McD or this Nasi Atuk KFC?Of course we ordered the usual nuggets and cheesy wedges as our side orders. I noticed that the fries from KFC tasted better than the ones from McDonald's. We were filled to the brim as slowly indulged in our dinner while watching TV. Throw in some carbonated drinks and our tummies almost exploded. It is a shame that I have yet to try the tandoori chicken from KFC. Perhaps next time. But for this round, we truly enjoyed all our sinfully scrumptious Nasi Atuk, Zinger Stacker and Durian Balls. Have you tried them?"} {"title": "The Canteen at ChinaHouse-An Unforgettable Dinner in Georgetown, Penang", "body": "Many restaurants and cafes in Penang are amazing but the one that really grabbed our attention was The Canteen at ChinaHouse (\u5510\u4eba\u539d). To be precise the Canteen at ChinaHouse is a bar, bistro and a venue for live performance. However, since we visited joint during the Covid-19 pandemic, there was of course no live performance. Still the ambiance was spectacular to say the least. That alone warrants a recommendation from me for you to visit this place which serves amazing spread of delicate food.The Canteen at ChinaHouse-An Unforgettable Dinner in PenangBefore we look at what we had devoured, here's a brief introduction about The Canteen at ChinaHouse. Apparently, this bistro (Canteen) is just part of ChinaHouse. For the uninitiated, ChinaHouse concists of 3 buildings adjoined together by a central courtyard. There are 14 different sections and the Canteen is just one of it. For the record, ChinaHouse is the longest cafe in Penang spanning 400 feet (120 metres) from end to end. It is located between Victoria Street (Lebuh Victoria) and Beach Street (Lebuh Pantai).Stage for Live PerformanceAdore the splendid decorations in The CanteenIt is like an art gallery!The Canteen is located along Lebuh Victoria while the other famous cafe at the other end is Kopi C which you can access from Lebuh Pantai. It is amazing that ChinaHouse has different menus catering to different customers. There is also a fine dining restaurant in ChinaHouse known as BTB aka Bon Ton Bistro. Hopefully we will be able to visit ChinaHouse again to enjoy the food at Kopi C and Bon Ton Bistro. Now let's get back to Canteen, shall we?So what drinks do you want to order?You would want to indulge in these toothsome cakesWhat is underneath the table?The Canteen at ChinaHouse is the place to be if you want to enjoy live music while savouring your delectable food. The moment we stepped into The Canteen, there was a makeshift platform for performers to strut their stuff.\u00a0\u00a0However when we visited the bistro, it was a shame that we could only sample their exquisite food. There were not many patrons yet as we were quite early.Love the vibe and music in The CanteenIt's a pretty romantic place for dates as well \ud83d\ude0dObviously, the Canteen was very popular with foreign tourists as we were the only locals there. I am sure they were there not only for the food but also the unbelievable backdrop. I must say that\u00a0the ambiance in The Canteen was really soothing and vibrant, setting the mood for you to relax\u00a0and unwind. The decorations were really full of vibe and colours with impeccable antiques and brilliant lightings. In fact the whole place looks like an art gallery with beautiful abstract paintings gracing the walls and different backgrounds for you to take those insta-worthy snaps.Our drink for the night-Lychee Cranberry LemonadeThe enigmatic Candle Apple Red colour took center stage here, illuminating the whole place and infusing with lively background music. Of course by then we had already ordered our food and beverage. Since this is a bistro where a lot of alcoholic beverages are served, we only ordered one drink that our little kids could enjoy as well-Lychee Cranberry Lemonade which I thought was refreshing and a bit different from what we usually had. Perhaps it was the cranberry.\u00a0Nachos For AppetizerKids love nachos for sure!First platter to land on our table was my Nachos. The last time we had one was 5 years ago at Hard Rock Cafe Melaka. Certainly, this appetizer had immediately whetted our taste buds. I mean what not to like right? The crunchy tortilla chips, the combo of melted cheese, sour cream and salsa really complemented the jalapeno peppers and olive perfectly. Honestly, we wished that were more tortilla chips for our gaping drooling mouths.Pizza of The DaySomeone is digging the burnt cheese and tuna chunks \ud83d\ude01Our kids had pizza of the day which was a hand tossed tuna pizza. We really appreciate the generous chunks of tuna covered in melted cheese. The burnt cheese and tuna chunks really combined to give you that unmistakable mouth-watering fragrant. The basil leaves and chopped onions scattered on the thin-crust pizza also did wonder in elevating the flavour and aroma of this savoury Italian delight. I would rather it second to the Salmon Pizza we had at Fugo Ryori.Ayam Perchik Will Tantalize Your TastebudsWifey gave her nod of approvalThe ayam perchik was tender and flavourfulThe next main course for my wife's Ayam Perchik aka Coconut BBQ Chicken. Honestly, this was an eye-opening dish that even my wife gave her nod of approval. Served with cashew salad with loads of basils and green mango, the Ayam Perchik dish also came with bite-size roast sweet potatoes. The coconut (Santan) rice was so good that my wife even waxed lyrical about it. I tried a few spoons and couldn't agree more. Every grain of the rice was fluffy and tasty. The chicken was flawlessly marinated with the juice oozing out the moment you sink your teeth into it. I bet the green lemon sauce played a huge role to make the whole package even more scrumptious.Smoked Salmon BagelExquisite and yet delightful!It swept me off my feet for sure (especially the smoked salmon)The highlight for our (my) dinner was the huge Smoked Salmon Bagel. Of course I was the only one who savoured this \"hamburger\" as my wife and children found the combination of bagel, rocket salad and smoked salmon slices were too exotic for their palate. Being a big fan of salmon, I must say that I love the how well the salmon slices were smoked and they went really well with the balsamic and rocket salad of course. If was an acquired taste and one that I truly want to try again. \ud83e\udd24Salted Caramel Cheese CakeLast but not least, we sweeten our already pleasant dinner with a piece of Salted Caramel Cheese Cake. It was rich, firm and of course with a hint of brine. I love how the nectarous caramel added more texture to our cheesy piece of dessert. It was so good that we almost forgot to take a picture. Guess we were craving for it too badly. LOL \ud83d\ude02Doddled this as I was in the moodIn the Chinese CourtyardWe will definitely return to ChinaHouse again!After our dinner we actually went to do some sightseeing and snapped some photos. All in all The Canteen at ChinaHouse is really a great place to have your dinner or maybe supper. Hopefully during our next visit, we could try out the food at their Kopi C cafe and Bon Ton Bistro. So if you happen to be in Penang or Georgetown to be precise, do pay The Canteen at ChinaHouse a visit. I would go as far to say it is a must visit cafe in Penang.The Canteen at ChinaHouseAddress: 183-B, Lebuh Victoria, George Town, 10300 Pulau Pinang.Facebook:\u00a0www.facebook.com/TheCanteenAtChinaHouse/Contact: 04-2637299Opening Hours: Daily (9:00a.m.-2:00a.m.)Map of The Canteen at ChinaHouse"} {"title": "Fugo Ryori The Best Japanese Restaurant In Melaka ", "body": "Being Japanese food lovers, my family and I enjoy dining in Japanese Restaurants to savour Japanese cuisines. So during our anniversary celebration, I decided to bring my wife to Fugo Ryori (\u5bcc\u56fd\u6599\u7406) Japanese Restaurant Melaka which has been dubbed as the best restaurant to satisfy your craving for Japanese food. I have heard about this famous eatery for quite some time and I am glad I could finally say that I have dined in one. Established in 2015, Fugo Ryori was founded by a group of Malaccan chefs who want to prepare nothing but the best of Japanese food.Fugo Ryori The Best Japanese Restaurant In Melaka\u00a0There are 3 branches of Fugo Ryori Japanese restaurants in MelakaUpon entering the restaurant, we were greeted by a golden plaque which read, \"World Top Gourmet Awards 2019\" for the Japanese Cuisine Category. That award is a testament that we were indeed dining in one of the best Japanese restaurants in Melaka. Guess our tummies were in safe hands, right? Being located in a prime area, the restaurant is a wee bit small for my liking. Still the ambiance was really soothing and the classic decorations of using woods had truly made our dining experience better.A recognition to show that it is one of the best in Japanese cuisineSo it will be a great place to celebrate our wedding anniversaryOur two little babies...well they are no longer babies \ud83d\ude02Knowing that this is one of the best Japanese restaurants in Melaka made it quite difficult for us to choose what to eat. After scrutinizing the menu like forever, we finally placed our orders. We had to book in advance to dine in and surely this award-winning restaurant was brimming with lots of patrons in no time. Waiting time for our food is relatively fast. The first to land on our table was our crispy appetizer the Shake Kawa. Guess the Crispy Salmon Skin with a hint of saltiness had really whetted our appetite for more.Crispy Salmon Skin for appetizerLet's start our Japanese gastronomical journey!In no time, one of our main courses was served-Tori Kimuchi Cheese Rice. Since we love rice and cheese, we ordered this crispy chicken, cheese, spicy kimchi rice served with sizzling plate. I must say that the chefs of Fugo Ryori only used the best ingredients. Besides I must admit that they were not stingy in giving us lots of cheese for this dish, so much so that I felt that we were eating pizza. We enjoyed our perfectly cooked pearl rice which was spicy and dovetailed with the thick cheese really well.Tori Kimuchi Cheese RiceFor the love of gooey cheeseOur next order had something to do with cheese as well. Introducing Kamo Cheese Kamameshi which was of course \"enriched\" with cheese as well. We could not resist the smoked duck slices that came with the gooey cheese with hot pot fried rice. Mix everything together and you will get a fusion of flavours busting and then melting in your mouth, giving you that ASMR sensation aka SYIOK! I love the evenly cut smoked duck slices which were just of the right texture and thickness.Kamo Cheese KamameshiEqually cheesy and sinfully good!Up next we had Curry Katsu Don which is a must-order for if you love curry. As usual you will have cutlets of chicken served together with Japanese Curry on your rice. I love the fragrance of the rice and curry. The chicken cutlets were tender and went really well with the curry. However, I wish that the curry could be a tad spicier. Than again, since it was rather mild our children could also savour the flavoursome Japanese curry.Curry Katsu DonSo far so good right?Of course we need more!We also ordered something rather un-Japanese at Fugo Ryori. We had Shake Pizza which I thought was ironically better than the usual pizzas we ordered from Domino and Pizza Hut. The crust was thin and crispy, making every bite enjoyable and light. However the highlight had go to be the smoked salmon. They were distinctively scrumptious despite \"swimming\" amongst tonnes of cheese. Not bad really!Shake Pizza aka Salmon PizzaWe can't help but feel that this is the best pizza ever!No dining experience in a Japanese Restaurant will be complete without sushi right? Hence we ordered the one that really caught our eyes in the menu-Kamo Salsa Maki. We were totally swooned by the reverse sushi roll complete with crispy shrimp tempura, mango and topped the must-have smoked duck & tomato salsa. OMG! This combination will definitely blow your mind and get your taste buds dancing especially the fresh mango! Dayum! \ud83e\udd24 This truly reminds of my Omakase at Miyabi Sheraton. By the way I was utterly impressed with the little artwork that they did with the wasabi.\u00a0Kamo Salsa MakiThis is simply a work of artOh! Don't forget the wasabiLast but not least for our main course would be Tori Ramen as requested by Jordan boy. Apparently he wanted to have this Grilled Chicken with Ramen very badly thanks to the anime that he has been watching-Naruto. Guess he must have thought that eating a huge bowl of ramen will make him a great ninja too. He did enjoy his Ramen with grilled chicken though. I am proud that he could walloped the whole bowl which was bigger than his head. LOL \ud83d\ude02Grilled Chicken With RamenWhen the bowl is bigger than your head \ud83d\ude05Our anniversary luncheon will not be proper without indulging in sweet beverages that would fatten us up right? Jordan boy and Jasmine girl had iced blended chocolate and honeydew juice respectively. As for my and I, we opted to be a bit more traditional we the usual steaming hot green tea. To sweeten our palate even more for that day was something chilling-Vanilla Monaka. Guess we were so gratified by our meal that even the simple ice cream tasted heavenly. Ha \ud83d\ude01Dessert-Vanilla MonakaOur beveragesYou guys make my life sweeter \ud83d\ude0dWe will definitely return to Fugo Ryori for more good Japanese food!All in all, the four of us 7 different dishes plus 4 beverages and 1 dessert *burp* to celebrate this important day of ours. I must admit that the food at this Japanese restaurant has really met our expectations and tick all the right boxes.

Enter Pik Nik at Nagore Penang which is one of the best places on the island to have lunch and dinner. After reading so many raving reviews about this eatery, we decided that this is a must-go cafe in Penang that we should not miss. Hence after our close encounters with some bugs, a tarantula and a snake, we needed scrumptious comfort food to replenish our energy and that was why we opted to pay this lovely cafe a visit.Pik Nik at Nagore Road, Penang-A Must Visit For FoodiesSituated along Nagore Road in Penang which is a prime area, looking for a parking can be a bit of a challenge. Still, we foodies will not miss this haven for food. After going round and round a few times, we finally spotted a parking lot. Judging from its exterior, we knew that this cafe would be an exquisite place to savour our lunch. The moment we stepped in, we were already in awe of Pik Nik's rustic and laidback charm. The combination of light music, soothing lighting and relaxing ambiance made us feel so at ease and comfortable.So what should you order at Pik Nik Penang?Those who love to snap selfies and pictures will appreciate the interior design and decor of the cafe. In fact, I would say that Pik Nik at Nagore Road is one of the most Instagrammable cafes in Penang. Within the cafe, there will be at least 5 different backgrounds for you to snap photos that you can share on your social media account. It's like the cafe itself is an art gallery with different settings for different corners of the cafe. Girls will love the pastel pink spot where everything was...of pink. I personally love the black backdrop with the huge lightning!Pik Nik is definitely one of the most Instagrammable cafes in PenangGirls and ladies will love the pink pastelYou will love the cozy and artsy ambiance in Pik NikOf course you do not come here only \"for the gram\" right? I must admit that the presentations of the food in Pik Nik are equally work of art. Altogether we ordered 5 different dishes and 4 beverages. They were not only visually pleasing, but also very, very appetizing and delectable. It is very rare that you will get food that not only looks good on the outside but taste equally good on the inside. We really have to applaud the chefs for dishing these ambrosial luncheon for us.Our Kimchi Pork Bulgogi Fried RiceSpicy Mala Smoked Duck Aglio OlioThe first dish that we tasted at Pik Nik was the tantalizing Kimchi Pork Bulgogi Fried Rice, served with a sunny side up. Every grain of the rice was really flavorsome and tasty with a hint of spiciness to it. Next, we had Spicy Mala Smoked Duck Aglio Olio which is a must try in Pik Nik. OMG! It was really lip-smacking and the spaghetti was cooked to perfection and the smoked duck slices were simply...heavenly. Every bite of it was unbelievably juicy and breathtaking. I wish I could have a second plate of it. You really have to order this when you are at Pik Nik, trust me!Mac and Cheese conchiglieAburi Smoked Salmon Waffle PizzaJordan boy and Jasmine girl had pasta as well-Mac and Cheese conchiglie served with irresistible chorizo and mushroom. Creamy and al-dente, the kids love their Italian pasta which really suited their taste buds. One of the reasons why we wanted to dine in Pik Nik was to try its interesting waffles menu. We tried the Aburi Smoked Salmon Waffle Pizza with scrambled egg which really got our eyes peeled in excitement! The smoked Salmon was really the standout in this dainty dish of ours. We really loved how they have fused the different ingredients together to dish out this wonderful waffle pizza that really whetted our appetite for more.Waffle Bae-con is a must-try!We love all the beverages at Pik NikLast but not least, the most highly anticipated dish that yours truly me had been waiting for was the Waffle Bae-con served with scrambled egg and maple syrup. I must say that this Waffle Bae-con is the best food I have tried in Pik Nik Penang thanks to the strips of bacons of course. The waffles were crisp and fluffy at the same time while the scrambled egg added that much-needed additional texture to the former. Of course, the highlight was the perfectly cooked bacon strips that I could not have enough of. They were so lusciously crispy and tender, melting in your mouth as your sink your teeth into them. OMG!Let's dig in!Wifey and Jasmine were so happy with their feast. \ud83d\ude04Of course we needed a few good beverages to complement our distinctive food right? And since we were rather thirsty, we needed a few sips to quench our yearn for liquid. The kids ordered vanilla milk and banana yogurt smoothie while wifey opted for something chocolatey-Dark Chocolate milk-based beverage. As for yours truly me, no food is perfect without coffee right? So I had the rich latte to help me seal the great aftertaste of the food that we have just indulged in earlier on.Pik Nik Menu-What To Eat & DrinkAll in all, we had a really pleasant and gratifying dining experience in Pik Nik. Besides the marvelous ambiance, we were also swept off our feet by the outstanding food and beverages.

Instead of going to a nearby eatery for our dinner, we decided to to dine inside the hotel itself. After reading countless glowing reviews about the scrumptious food being served in Southern Court Chinese Restaurant, my wife suggested that we give it a try. It turned out to be a wise choice for our tummies indeed.Dinner At Southern Court Chinese Restaurant of Bayview Hotel MelakaFor the uninitiated, the Southern Court Chinese Restaurant in Bayview Hotel Melaka serves authentic Szechuan and Cantonese cuisines. That's right! So if you are craving genuine Szechuan and Cantonese dishes in Melaka, you really need to head over to this famous restaurant. It had been a while since we last dined in a restaurant which dishes out oriental food. We were there quite early after our swimming sessions, making us extremely hungry. I am sure this lovely restaurant is included in the top list of online ordering for restaurants in Melaka.Southern Court Chinese Restaurant follows the required SOPNo meal will be complete without coffeeUpon arrival, we were immediately in awe of the restaurant's classic and yet luxurious decorations. The courteous waiter immediately ushered us to our preferred table and even handed each of us a plastic packet to store our mask. All in all we ordered 5 different dishes to savour. I must say that the intricate wood carvings and the whimsical Chinese instrumental music in the Southern Court Chinese Restaurant really set us in the mood for our dinner. Yours truly me loved the sight of the traditional wooden chairs which made me reminisce about the good old days in my late grandmother's house.\u00a0Shark \"fin\" soup was our appetizerAs we were one of the earliest patrons in Southern Court Chinese Restaurant, the chef could attend to us first and in no time, our\u00a0 mouth-watering dinner was served. It pays to be early. \ud83d\ude04 First to land on our dining table was a huge bowl of \"Shark Fin Soup\". Ok! Do not be alarmed. No sharks were finned and harmed to prepare this delicacy. Instead we were served the so-called artificial (or imitation) shark fin soup as appetizer. I could not tell how close it tasted compared to the real shark fin soup as I have not had any for decades. Still, the scrumptious broth together with the ingredients inside really whetted our appetite.Up next was mixed vegetables with tofu. Though the dish might look simple, I love how flavourful it was together with the thick, savory sauce which really went well with our white rice. Another plate of stir-fried mixed vegetables was next on our list. The combination of long beans, ladies fingers, onions, brinjal and sliced chili was really bursting with flavours in my mouth. I could vividly scent the unmistakable Wok Hei fragrance in the dish which brought back fond memories of home-cooked food by my old folks.The fried chickens were crispy on the outside and succulent on the insideJordan and Jasmine really got excited when they saw the next platter on the table-fried chickens. Obviously these deep-fried chickens were so irresistibly enticing for both of them. I guess no one could fend of the temptation of well-marinated chicken deep-fried to golden crisp perfection right? They were really delectable; Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The moment you sink your teeth into these succulent fried chickens, you could not help but want more! Yes~it will be that insatiable!Chili Crab with mantouLast but not least was the highlight of our dinner at Southern Court Chinese Restaurant. In fact I insisted that we try this cuisine which was highly recommended. Introducing the exquisite Chili Crab with Mantou. Honestly I had never sampled anything quite like this. The luscious chili-coated crab meat together with the distinctive mantou was really rich and scrumptious.\u00a0OMG! This dish was really lip -smacking! It was so good that I almost ordered another one. I am glad that we did try this signature dish of Chef Sum.Let's enjoy our feast at\u00a0Southern Court Chinese RestaurantAll in all, we had a feast at this renowned Southern Court Chinese Restaurant. So if you are staying in Bayview Hotel Melaka, I highly recommend that you pay their in-house Chinese restaurant a visit and try their authentic Szechuan and Cantonese dishes.

Besides colourful and dazzling lanterns, another mainstay of Mid-Autumn festival is the must have mooncake. This traditional delicacy will be savoured while family members enjoy their moon-gazing moments. So have you had any mooncakes this year?Homemade Traditional Mooncakes By Best Vegie Restaurant (\u6148\u5712\u7d20\u98df\u9928)As usual, we have bought several mooncakes for prayers and for self-indulgence as well. We had also received quite a number of mooncakes from friends and family. From the traditional red-bean paste filling to the more exotic durian-flavoured mooncake, I got to try a variety of mooncakes this year. However\u00a0 this year there are a few that really stood out compared to the rest the fancy commercial mooncakes that we had had.-2 to be precise.These are arguably one of the best homemade mooncakes in MelakaIntroducing homemade mooncakes from Best Vegie Restaurant Melaka (\u6148\u5712\u7d20\u98df\u9928)\u00a0that were not only dainty, but also surprisingly delicious. The first one with the rich salted egg yolk which was truly creamy but the texture was still smooth and pleasant. It was not too strong or sticky like some commercial mooncakes. The second mooncake in the box was the pandan mooncake which tasted equally scrumptious and distinct. Again, I love the flavour and its texture which whet my appetite for more.They taste even better than those fancy commercial mooncakesSalted Egg Yolk Traditional Mooncake for only RM5Pandan Mooncake for only RM4.50Like I have aforementioned, these 2 homemade traditional mooncakes really took cake for arguably the best ones I have tried this year so far. We appreciate the thin and crispy crust together with the delightful fragrance which really whet our appetite for more. They really dovetailed with the Chinese tea that we had. We devoured all 6 in one go. Guess we had to wait till next Mid-Autumn festival to enjoy more of these traditional homemade mooncakes. The traditional mooncake with the salted egg only costs RM5 each while the pandan flavour mooncake costs only RM4.50 each. At the moment the shop is still selling these 2 scrumptious mooncakes.

When we visited the island previously, we always seemed to miss this food paradise. This time we ensured that we made this gastronomical trip of ours. The Chulia Street Night Hawker Stalls have been one of the attractions for foodies both locally and tourists. Yes! Even Penangites themselves could be seen crowding the stalls to enjoy their very own local food. This goes to show how delicious these cuisines are.\n\n\n\n\nWan Tan Mee is one of the top food at Chulia Street\n\n\n\n\nIt's a shame that we couldn't try the wan tan mee. Just look at the queue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChar Kaoy Teow\n\n\n\n\n\nHokkien Noodles\n\nBefore the sun begins to set, Chulia Street will come alive with hawkers setting up their push-cart stalls at their very own respective spots. Very quickly, the tables and chair will be arranged and in no time the crowd will start to gather. Chulia Street Night Hawker Stalls will start at 6 p.m. daily and call it a day by midnight. You are advised to be there early or you will have to wait for quite some time before there will be vacant table for you to be seated. Knowing how popular this place would be, we departed from our beachfront accommodation earlier.\n\n\n\n\n\nOuh Mr. Lor Bak~Lor Bak!\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at the glorious Lor Bak at your disposal \ud83e\udd24\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat beverages do you want to drink?\n\n\n\n\n\nMake sure to be here early.\n\nOnce we arrived, we were rewarded with a vacant table right behind the famous wan tan mee stall. True enough, the whole place was brimming with hungry food lovers both locally and abroad. Soon, a lot of people were lining up to wait for their turn to be seated. Immediately, we headed to the different stalls and placed orders for the food that we wanted to try. I believe in total there were at least 10 hawker stalls selling food that evening. I understand that there should be more stalls no thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic and movement control order restrictions.\n\n\n\nIndulge in the succulent pork satay\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe peanut sauce makes everything taste better\n\n\nAll in all, we ordered 5 different food to gratify our hunger pangs. Our afternoon visit to Fort Cornwallis had really burnt a lot of our calories. The first food to land on our table was the famous Hainanese Satay. Having eaten chicken satay quite often, we tried their pork satay. However we did not just feast on any ordinary pork satay, ours were skewers of grilled wild boar meat. The meat was really tender and the peanut sauce really elevated the authentic flavour of the grilled wild boar meat.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou will love the Wok Hei of the Char Kway Teow\n\n\n\nNo menu in Penang would be complete without the household Char Kway Teow right? Our plate of wok-fried char kway teow was reasonably good. Every strand of the noodle and the 2 juicy prawns were well coated with the sauce. It was scrumptious we liked its Wok Hei fragrance. However we thought that the Char Kway Teow that we had earlier at Kedai Kopi Ho Ping was tastier. Still, I would say that the whole package met our expectations.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe\u00a0Hokkien Noodles was surprisingly good!\n\n\nWe also had a plate of Hokkien Noodles which I thought was really great even though at first glance...it did not look appetizing at all. The moment we had our first bite, immediately we knew it would be a luscious plate of Hokkien Noodles. The texture of the noodles were just nice-al dente and while the broth was thick and bursting with that unmistakable familiar flavours. My wife was really full of praise for this plate of ordinary-looking Hokkien Noodles.\n\n\n\nDuck Meat Koay TeowTh'ng (soup)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur next dish was something that we didn't know what to expect as it we had never tried it before. Enter Duck Meat Koay TeowTh'ng (soup). Usually I had my reservations for something soupy. It was supposed to be bland, or so I thought. It turned out to be rich and very tasty. Generous strips of meat and fish balls were also added, much to our delight. Guess I should not judge my food too soon huh!\n\n\n\nLor Bak is a must-try food in Penang\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLast but not least, we ordered the famous Lor Bak. With various ingredients for you to choose, you literally have to think twice or thrice what should end up in your tummy. Lor Bak is undoubtedly one of must-have food when you are in Asia right? Choose to indulge in the fried sausages, tofu, prawn fritters, pandan chicken and fish cakes just to name a few. You could eat fried delicacies with the mixture of cinnamon and soy sauce or the chili sauce if you want something spicier. Obviously Jordan boy and Jasmine girl really loved deep-fried food a lot!\n\n\n\n\n\nAll in all, our visit to Chua Street was a rewarding one indeed. Then again it was a shame that we could not try the famous wan tan mee as the queue was literally too long. Yupe! Whether you want to dine in or take away, you still need to line up to enjoy the wan tan mee. Guess it is really, really that good huh! Too bad our stomachs could no longer take in any extra food, otherwise we would love to try the highly rated \"Muah Chee\" and \"Apom\" as well. For those who are wondering what and where to eat in Penang, you really need to be here. In fact, I would say that Chulia Street Night Hawker Stalls serve some of the best street food in Penang for dinner time.\n\n\n\nChulia Street is indeed a food paradise!\n\n\n\n\n\nChulia Street Night Hawker Stalls Penang\n\nAddress: Chulia Street (Lebuh Chulia), 10450 Georgetown, Penang.\n\nOpening hours: 6p.m. - 12 a.m. daily\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"} {"title": "Mekdi-There Is Not Place Like It", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nWe have just celebrated our 63rd Hari Merdeka (Independence Day) and right in the heart of every Malaysian is McDonald's Malaysia or more fondly known as Mekdi. This year marks the 38th anniversary of 'McD' in our country. The very first Mekdi signage made its debut in Bukit Bintang last year (2019) and now McDonald's Malaysia is proudly\u00a0showing off the 'Mekdi' signage at 16 selected restaurants across various states in our country. Yep! Mekdi is ours-it belongs to all Malaysians. \ud83d\ude19\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis idea of localizing the brand name McDonald's was a way to thank Malaysians for their continuous support for the quick service restaurant chain since it first arrived in our country 38 years ago. So Malaysians have cast their votes to choose their preferred McDonald's restaurants across the country to bear the very Malaysian name for their favourite fast food restaurants. Let's find out which 16 McDonald's restaurants in Malaysia have been given the owner to display the iconic Mekdi signage. I am glad that one of the restaurants in Melaka made it into the list. Woohoo! \ud83d\ude01\n\n\n\n\n\nThe 16 selected 'Mekdi' restaurants nationwide are:\n\no McDonald\u2019s Bukit Bintang\no McDonald\u2019s Titiwangsa\no McDonald\u2019s KLCC\no McDonald\u2019s Putrajaya, Presint 2\no McDonald\u2019s Kuala Selangor\no McDonald\u2019s Greenlane, Penang\no McDonald\u2019s Jln Gopeng, Ipoh, Perak\no McDonald\u2019s Stulang Laut, Johor\no McDonald\u2019s Kulai, Johor\no McDonald\u2019s Kuala Pilah, Negeri Sembilan\no McDonald\u2019s Taman Buaya, Malacca\no McDonald\u2019s Teluk Cempedak, Pahang\no McDonald\u2019s Kota Bahru, Kelantan\no McDonald\u2019s Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu\no McDonald\u2019s Kuching 1, Sarawak\no McDonald\u2019s Api-Api, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah\n\n\n\n\n\nThere is no place like Mekdi for sure!\n\n\n\nOf course we Malaysians love our food very much as well. Just in time to celebrate our Hari Merdeka and Malaysia Day, McDonald's Malaysia has also enhanced our beloved Nasi Lemak. So now you can indulge in your Nasi Lemak McD with side dishes such as Rendang Ayam, Spicy Chicken McDeluxe Cutlet or Grilled Chicken Burger (GCB) Cutlet. OMG! Being a big fan of Nasi Lemak, yours truly have tried all 3 and OMG~they were so unbelievably delicious and the sambal was truly lip-smacking! I don't know about you but my family and I just can't get enough of it. My wife and children absolutely love the new side dishes options.\n\n\n\n\n\nOMG! Nasi Lemak~which one should I indulge in first?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHave you tried the Geng Nasi Lemak at Mekdi?\n\n\n\nInterestingly, McDonald's has also infused local flavours into its dessert menu. Yep! You will be in for a surprise to find out that you can now enjoy the brand new McFlurry Cendol! Unfortunately, I couldn't get to try it as it is out of stock in all McD outlets in Melaka! \ud83d\ude13 Hopefully they will restock this dessert as soon as possible. Apart from that, you can also enjoy Corn Pie and Cendol-flavoured ice cream that will definitely put a smile on your face. I had the Cendol-flavoured sundae and it was truly scrumptious.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Nasi Lemak McD with Spicy Chicken McDeluxe Cutlet\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Nasi Lemak McD with GCB Cutlet\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Nasi Lemak McD with Rendang Ayam\n\n\n\nMore often than not, we Malaysians can identify with McDonald's in almost every single aspect of our life right? This is especially true when we talk about food. It is really heart-warming to know that McDonald's menu has been localised to cater to our Malaysian taste buds with many ingredients being sourced locally. That is why we have the Nasi Lemak menu and sambal that can really whet our appetites. I guess that explains why we truly love all the food from Mekdi right?\n\n\n\n\n\n#GengNasiLemak\n\n\n\nMcDonald's is a company that champions causes that benefits we Malaysians. One such cause is the #KitaBoleh concept which is a nationwide call by McDonald\u2019s Malaysia in March this year \u2013 to herald the silent bravery of the frontliners who continued on their work as Malaysians stayed home during the Movement Control Order (MCO). Obviously the company cares a lot about we Malaysians and our struggle.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith over 14,000 employees in 300 restaurants across the country,\u00a0McDonald\u2019s Malaysia also prioritises talent and skills development among its assets-the valuable workforce. With plans to open 450 stores by 2025, McDonald\u2019s Malaysia has also targeted to add 10,000 more employees to its workforce. This will allow more Malaysians to have job opportunities and career advancement options. This goes to show that the company intends to help nurture local talents and aid them in building meaningful careers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo take a photo with the new Mekdi signage to celebrate Merdeka & Malaysia Day\n\n\n\nAs we are all aware, McDonald\u2019s Malaysia is also a strong community player. The company is constantly encouraging all its restaurants nationwide to give back to local communities by organising various initiatives such as meal donations to local charities, Teacher\u2019s Day celebrations as well as flood relief efforts. Through Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC), McDonald\u2019s Malaysia continues to support programmes that directly improve the health and well-being of children and their families. Another initiative close to McDonald\u2019s heart is the \u2018Back-to-School\u2019 programme, which has benefitted 53,000 urban poor primary school children since 2017.\n\n\n\n\n\nDon't forget to try the Nasi Lemak McD ok. \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\n\n\nTruth to be told, McDonald's Malaysia has done a lot for we Malaysians. Besides rolling out localised menu that we love, the company is also providing job opportunities as well as giving back to the society through its various meaningful charitable events. So let us do our part now and visit one of the nearest McDonald's Malaysia restaurants to help ourselves to all those glorious Nasi Lemak with its mouth-watering side dishes (Rendang Awam, Spicy Chicken McDeluxe Cutlet or Grilled Chicken Burger (GCB) Cutlet)!

After we alighted from our car, we immediately started our food hunt. We parked our car directly opposite a coffee shop called Kedai Kopi Ho Ping (\u548c\u5e73\u8336\u9910\u5ba4) but that was not here we wanted to have our first meal in Penang. Prior to this vacation of ours, we had already searched for the possible spots to begin our gastronomical journey in George Town. However on that day, the restaurants that we wanted to visit were all closed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the end this was where we ended up having our lunch. It looked kinda old right?\n\n\nWe walked for around 20 minutes and headed to our next destinations based on our list. One after another, the restaurants that we intended to have our lunch were not open for business. In the end, we returned to Kedai Kopi Ho Ping which we were reluctant to be. Still, our growling stomachs said otherwise and we dragged our tired feet into the old, dilapidated coffee shop.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoying our lunch at Kedai Kopi Ho Ping\n\n\nWe ordered Wan Tan Mee,\u00a0 Fried Kueh Teow, Curry Noodles and Roast Pork Rice. Honestly I was not expecting anything at all as these are the usual food that we would have in hawker center right? Then the moment we had our first bite, we knew the food was going to be amazing. The Wan Tan Mee that Jordan boy had was springy and the fried wan tan was crispy ad meaty. My wife ordered the fried Kueh Teow which was equally good as it had that good old \"Wok Hei\" fragrance to it. The prawns were huge and succulent, making the whole plate a delightful treat against our hunger pangs.\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy and his Wan Tan Mee\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey with her Char Kue Teow\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe roast pork and char siew rice belonged to me. The roast pork was tender and crispy while the char siew which was sweetened with honey was really toothsome. Together with the flavourful gravy, everything went really well with every grain of the fluffy rice. As for my daughter, she ordered a bowl of curry noodles for herself. When it landed on our table, I was surprised as it was white curry instead of the usual orange red version. The thick and creamy curry really dovetailed well with the sambal and tofu puff. The unmistakable aroma of curry noodles really whet our appetite. Let;s dig in!\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl with her white curry for lunch\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's time to dig in!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe had a pleasant lunch at Kedai Kopi Ho Ping for sure. Though at first we were not interested to have our meal there, it was definitely a good \"plot twist\" for us. As the saying goes, never judge a book by its cover and Kedai Kopi Ho Ping certainly lives up to this adage. If you are in Penang and want to try something local and familiar, do head over to enjoy your meals here. It is highly recommended and is definitely one of the best places in Penang to have your breakfast or brunch. After enjoying our lunch, we went to check in at our 5-Star beachfront accommodation at Tanjung Point Residences.\n\n\n\nKedai Kopi Ho Ping George Town\u00a0(\u548c\u5e73\u8336\u9910\u5ba4)\n\n211, Jln Penang, George Town, 10000 George Town, Pulau Pinang\n\nWebsite: www.facebook.com/Hopingcafe\n\nPhone: 012-3328219\n\n\n\n"} {"title": "FL Salted Egg Murukku-Highly Addictive!", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nI am sure you have tried murukku before especially during Deepavali festival.

When we arrived at the Feast, there were already a lot of other guests busy filling their plates with glorious food. Thankfully the restaurant was really, really big; It was spacious and there were still many vacant seats. Once we have settled down, off we went to grab our empty plates. \ud83d\ude01\n\n\n\n\nBreakfast Buffet at Sheraton PJ is one of the best in KL and PJ\n\n\n\n\nWhat bread would you like?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDonuts and croissants\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nGlutten-free cakes~how thoughtful\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Cereals for the kids or maybe you \ud83d\ude04\n\n\n\n\n\nBread pudding which was surprisingly good\n\n\n\n\nSince we were having breakfast, you could expect an assortment of breads that you would not even know where to start digging. There were also around 10 jars of spread for you to smack on your breads ranging from jam to honey. I think Feast @ Sheraton PJ was really courteous and thoughtful as they even prepared gluten-free options for those who need it. There were also lots of colourful donuts and different choices of croissants for you to savour. Kids will love the various cereals in jars along with a plethora of dried fruits and nuts. Interestingly the restaurant also provided hot oatmeal and bread pudding\u00a0which was made from stale bread, milk and egg.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChinese Fried Rice,\u00a0 Mee Mamak and Nasi Lemak\n\n\n\n\n\nHow about a bowl of Noodles?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow do you like your eggs?\n\n\n\n\nFor those who prefer heavier meals for their breakfast there were other oriental stalls with familiar local cuisines that they would make them happy such as Chinese Fried Rice, Mee Mamak and of course Nasi Lemak.

If you want something crunchy and cheesy at the same time, grab a few cookies and spread them with the 5 different cheeses available. There were Cheddar Cheese, Edam Cheese, Blue Cheese, Emmental Cheese and Camembert Cheese for you to choose from. It was quite an exotic display of cheese if you ask me. After all, it is not like every day you will get to taste 5 different cheese at one go right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor those who love salads\n\n\n\n\nHealth conscious diners could choose to fill up their hungry stomachs with salads and spice things up with the other special condiments that were just beside their leafy greens.

My scrumptious luncheon at Yue at Sheraton PJ tells me that this Japanese restaurant will be even better!\u00a0\u00a0After trying their Omakase prepared exclusively by their Japanese chef-Mr. Tetsuya Yanagida, I must admit that this is the best Omakase I have ever savoured in my life! So if you are looking for one of the best Japanese restaurants in PJ, then you really need to head over to Miyabi Sheraton PJ. This upscale Japanese restaurant serves the usual multi-course\u00a0kaiseki (\u61d0\u77f3) such as Sushi, Sashimi and Teppanyaki just to name a few.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan you feel the zen vibe emanated by the decor at Miyabi Sheraton PJ?\n\n\n\n\n\nSushi bar and live cooking station\n\n\n\n\nAlternatively you could choose Omakase dining experience at Miyabi Sheraton PJ. What is Omakase? Simply put, Omakase means \"I will leave it to you (the chef)\" to decide what Japanese food to cook, prepare and serve. In other words, the chef's creativity and culinary skills will come into play as he prepares the sushi. Hence I was really honoured that Chef Tetsuya Yanagida personally served me with his award-winning Omakase Sushi! It is not like everyday that you will be served fresh Sushi by a Japanese chef right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida will be preparing my authentic Omakase\n\n\n\nWhile waiting for my dinner I happily made myself at home in Miyabi Sheraton PJ. For the uninitiated, \"Miyabi\" means elegance and that is really evident in the opulent and yet cozy decorations of the restaurant.\u00a0I love the zen vibe that this restaurant exudes with minimalist design complemented by clean lines, natural stones and lots of woods. From the arrangement of the plates and cutlery to the well-folded napkins; Everything in Miyabi looks immaculately divine. For a moment, it feels like you are actually in Japan!\n\n\n\n\nCan't wait to see the chef showcasing his culinary skills\n\n\n\n\nWhile I was admiring the rich decor, I heard someone calling, \"Chris San!\" I turned around and there he was, holding my first plate of authentic Japanese cuisine for that night. Chef Tetsuya Yanagida presented my appetizer-Asparagus Goma-ae which was a quick green snack to get me started on my Omakase journey for the evening. The boiled asparagus which was coated with premium sesame sauce was really fresh and crispy. Who would have thought that vegetables could be this appealing to my palate huh! Besides some green goodness, my appetizer also consisted of the\u00a0mystifying Tatami Iwashi (dried Japanese baby sardines sheet)\u00a0which I actually had a second look. It was rather interesting to marvel at the intricate mesh of baby sardines intertwining to form a piece of art-like kite. The texture was crunchy and piquant. Dipping it into the sesame sauce and you will get a whole different sensation in your mouth.\n\n\n\n\nAsparagus Goma-ae (Boiled asparagus with sesame sauce)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTatami Iwashi (Dried Japanese Baby Sardine Sheet)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy next platter was the\u00a0exquisite Sashimi consisting of luscious Kanpachi, Toro, Hokkaido hotate and Fuedai. I am flattered to be served by exceptional quality sashimi that were made of amberjack, tuna, scallop and red snapper. The sashimi were unbelievably fresh and savory. Every single bite felt so rich and creamy, bursting with the sashimi's very own original flavour. Honestly speaking, I had ever never tasted sashimi as fresh as the ones in Miyabi thanks to its weekly sashimi shipment. Add a bit of freshly ground wasabi to your sashimi and your taste buds will be dancing in delight! This sashimi platter is highly recommended and it will surely give you that orgasmic\u00a0ASMR sensation!\n\n\n\n\n\nIt felt so good to have a Japanese chef preparing your Omakase\n\n\n\n\n\nKanpachi, Toro, Hokkaido Hotate, Fuedai Sashimi\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFreshly ground wasabi\n\n\n\n\nJapanese Clear Soup\n\n\nAfter enjoying my Sashimi, Chef Yanagida prepared a bowl of Japanese Clear Soup to help me get ready for my next Agemono dish. Introducing Avocado Sakura-ebi Kaki-age tempura which is a fusion between Avocado and Sakura baby shrimp. Dipping this battered and deep fried mashed avocado and cherry blossom really gave me that tingling sensation in my mouth. Despite being coated by a layer of batter, I could still taste the unmistakable buttery texture of the rich and nutty avocado. The sakura baby shrimp used in the tempura really added a different layer of savory aftertaste which made this Agemono really unique.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAvocado Sakura-ebi Kaki-age Tempura\n\n\n\nFusion between avocado and Sakura baby shrimp\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida then continued to prepare my Yakimono platter while I was admiring him strutting his stuff right before my eyes. The next that I got to delight in was the Grilled Ikejime Barramundi with Kyoto Miso. This grilled big eye tuna belly with sea salt was not only very presentable, but also very titillating. It was well-seasoned and grilled to perfection, with the juice of the fish still masterfully locked inside the dainty tuna fillet. I wouldn't mind having a few more servings.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrilled Ikejime Barramundi with Kyoto Miso\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe highlight of my Omakase dining at Miyabi Sheraton PJ has got to be this showstopper-Nigiri assortment. Behold my amazing Nigiri Sushi dishes with slices of fresh Kanpachi (Amberjack), Big eye tuna belly, Chutoro tuna belly, sweet Amaebi (prawn) and Mizu-dako (Octopus). When Chef Yanagida presented my Nigiri Sushi to me, I laid it on the table and was actually awestruck by what I would be indulging in. It was not like every day I could savour such sumptuously divine Nigiri Sushi right? Every grain of the vinegary pearl rice really complemented the freshness and sweet aroma of the sashimi. They were really creamy, rich and smooth! Add some wasabi and soy sauce and you would get a whole different experience in your mouth. Goodness!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida presenting the highlight of my Omakase at Miyabi Sheraton PJ\n\n\n\n\n\nNigiri Kanpachi, Toro, Amaebi & Mizu-dako\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhich one of these Nigiri Sushi will you try first?\n\n\n\nJust when I thought that my Nigiri platter was (supposedly) the last of my luxurious main course for the day, the affectionate Chef Yanagida surprised me with yet another sushi! He handed a Chopped bluefin tuna belly with leek hand roll sushi to a gleeful me *Yay!*. Well! One can never get enough of sinfully tempting authentic Japanese food right? Now I know why sushi lovers swear by bluefin tuna and vinegar pearl rice. I felt like a child again being able to eat this hand roll sushi.\n\n\n\n\nChopped Bluefin Tuna Belly With Leek Hand Roll Sushi\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDessert: Chitose Strawberry Cake & Fruit\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvery great gastronomical journey will have an equally awesome ending. The fitting unforgettable epilogue of my breathtaking Omakase dining experience in Miyabi Sheraton PJ was the heavenly\u00a0 Chitose Strawberry cake and fruits. This plate of nectarious dessert really put an icing on the already incredible omakase dining experience at Miyabi Sheraton PJ! Out of the sudden, Chef Yanagi appeared right before me and gave me a few Sushi Gummy Lollipops for my children. He knew that my kids could not tag along and hence wanted me to pass these candies to my them. Top notch hospitality and unbelievable courtesy from this Japanese chef! Another brownie point for sure.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida was very warm, funny and generous!\n\n\n\n\n\nI had hot green tea and Cappuccino but nothing beats...\n\n\n\n\nWhile I was enjoying my Omakase Sushi, I also ordered a bottle of artisanal Miyabi sake (rice wine). Served hot, every sip of this Miyabi sake was alluring. I particularly loved its sweet, refreshing scent with a hint of bitterness which really complemented its crisp aftertaste. An attentive waiter was constantly helping me to reheat my sake so that it would always be at the right temperature when I wanted my next sip. Hence, I highly recommend drinking sake while you are enjoying your Omakase sushi in Miyabi Sheraton PJ. It will really elevate your whole dining experience while you bask in its ethereal ambiance. Perhaps the sake made me tipsy a little bit. \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy hot bottle of artisanal Miyabi sake\n\n\n\n\nI think I am a bit tipsy now...\n\n\n\n\nSake really made all my sushi taste better!\n\n\n\nAll in all my Omakase dining in Miyabi Sheraton PJ was truly a feast fit for a King and an experience that I would never ever forget. Again I want to thank the meticulous Chef Tetsuya Yanagida for preparing such astonishing Omakase sushi for me. It was a luxurious treat indeed and it was worth every single dime.

Introducing Yue @ Sheraton Petaling Jaya which is an award-winning Chinese restaurant specializing in Cantonese cuisines. Being a food lover myself, I am thrilled to be able to savour such delectable dishes in Yue. If you are looking for one of the best Chinese restaurants in PJ to satiate your palate, then Yue @ Sheraton PJ is the one for you.\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo after checking in at our luxurious Executive Deluxe King room, we headed to Yue Chinese Restaurant to have our lunch. We were ushered into a huge special private dining room to enjoy our luncheon. Everything in the restaurant has been immaculately planned right from the elegant oriental decorations to the beautiful city views. There is an LCD TV if you want to watch something or probably for your karaoke session. The walls of this private dining room have been well sound-proofed for you to enjoy your chic-chatting or boisterous peals of laughter.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter hours of travelling, we are glad to be greeted by the warm and friendly waiter who handed us the menu. Honestly there were so many cuisines to choose from at Yue Sheraton Petaling Jaya. After much consideration and flipping of pages, we eventually chose Yue's 5-course Cherry Blossom Set Menu. We cheerfully basked in the cozy zen ambiance of the restaurant. The whole atmosphere was so pleasant thanks to its traditional music playing at the back which truly complemented the rich Chinese decorations in our dining room.\n\n\n\n\nChef's Special double boiled Chinese herbal soup served in a teapot!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe first cuisine from our to be served was the highly rated Chef's Special double boiled Chinese herbal soup served in a teapot! We were delighted to find a huge luscious abalone together with tender black chicken and aromatic cordyceps flower. The broth was so thick and fragrant, making it very flavourful and scrumptious. My wife and daughter really enjoyed this exquisite nourishing dish that really whetted their appetite. This is one of the must-try cuisine in Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya. I am glad that I ordered two sets of it.\n\n\n\n\nImperial Smoked Duck wrapped in egg pancake and Peking Sauce\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur next dish was the delightful Imperial Smoked Duck wrapped in egg pancake and Peking Sauce! The smoked duck was so delicate and gratifying that it will melt in your mouth the moment you have a bite. The well seasoned duck meat together with the thin and tasty egg pancake really tantalized my taste buds. Top it with the distinctive Peking sauce and your mouth will be bursting with flavour that you will not forget to quite a long time! I wish I could have more!\n\n\n\n\nBaked cod fish topped with wasabi and chef's special sauce\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you are someone who prefer seafood, then you will relish the baked cod fish topped with wasabi and chef's special sauce. The baked cod fish was cooked to perfection. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I could have sworn that the meat of cod fish was unbelievably creamy and smooth in my gaping mouth. The chef's special sauce made all the difference with a hint of zest and tempting zing. Of course we enjoyed the mushrooms and snappy asparagus as well.\n\n\n\n\nFried rice with egg white and crispy scallops\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fried rice is certainly \"more than meets the eye\"\n\n\n\nAs the saying goes no Chinese banquet is complete without the presence of rice right? Our next dish was fried rice with egg white and crispy scallops. Every grain of the rice was mellow and fragrant the way it should be. One could immediately taste the unmistakable \"wok hey\" in the fried rice. The egg white and crispy scallops elevated the flavour of rice and gave the dish more texture. Glad we had rice to eat together with our other dishes.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChilled fresh mango cream with milk and sago\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLast but not least, our desserts were served to round of our luncheon. Nothing beat having chilled fresh mango cream with milk and sago as your desserts. We also added another bowl of Matcha Ice Cream for ourselves to enjoy. Aww...these desserts were really luscious, heavenly and gratifying to say the least! We particularly loved how fresh and creamy our desserts were. OMG~we wish we could have a few more servings of these nectarous desserts.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll in all we really had a pleasant and fulfilling feast at Yue. All the food served felt like Chinese New Year menus to me. It was a satisfying gastronomical journey for my family and I. Our tummies were happily filled and our moods were of course brightened for the whole day. If you are in PJ or KL, looking for great Chinese restaurants to dine in, then I highly recommend this Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya.

What better way to fend off the hunger pangs than by eating a bowl of hot, spicy curry mee noodles right? We had always wanted to try this famous\u00a0Ah Thai Curry Mee Noodles (\u5341\u516b\u4e01\u5496\u54e9\u9762) in Kuala Sepetang and luckily it was open on that day. We were fortunate that the stall was just opening for business, meaning that we managed to book a table for ourselves. In the past, when we passed by the stall it was brimming with customers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0The famous curry mee noddle at Kuala Sepetang is directly opposite this Port Weld Signage\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou must try this Famous curry mee noodles at Kuala Sepetang!\n\n\n\n\nWhere is this famous Curry Mee Noodles located in Kuala Sepetang? For those who have some difficulties looking for it, all you have to do is to search for the iconic Port Weld KTM railway rock signage and voila the well-known noodle stall is directly opposite of it. The stall might look a bit run down but perhaps this is its charm right? As the saying goes, do not judge a book by its cover and once you are under the worn out canopy, you will understand why.\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is always crowded\u00a0\n\n\n\nIts operating hours are from 3p.m. till 7p.m. so you can be rest assured that a beeline will start forming very quickly after noon. True enough the place was really crowded and we were in luck that a group of customers just left, vacating a table for us. We had of course ordered their famous curry mee noodles for our lunch. We needed to wait for a while as there were really a lot of hungry mouths to be fed. While waiting for our food, I actually wandered around the city a little bit to take in the view. It was really an enjoyable stroll and I bought a copy of Chinese Newspaper and some cartoon cards packs for my children.\n\n\n\n\n\nTime to dig in\n\n\n\n\n\nFamous Kuala Sepetang Curry Mee Noddles with prawns, tofu puffs, bean sprouts and blood curds\n\n\n\nYou must also try their Loh Mee, Laksa and Deep Fried Prawn Fritters\n\n\n\n\nEqually delicious Loh Mee\n\n\n\nAround 10 minutes later, our famous Kuala Sepetang curry mee noodles were finally served. This signature curry mee noddles was served prawns, tofu puffs (\u8c46\u8150\u535c), bean sprouts and sliced fish cakes. You could also choose to add their specialty blood curd (\u732a\u8840) which is definitely an acquired taste. The curry was really thick, creamy and rich in coconut milk but not too strong for one's liking. Al~dante I would say. The broth had this strong but pleasant fresh prawns fragrance that was really appetizing.\n\n\n\n\n\nSecret ingredient: FRESH prawns\n\n\n\nIf eating lip-smacking curry mee noddles is not your cup of tea, you can also try their Loh Mee, Prawn Noodles and Laksa. We ordered their Loh Mee for our children as it was not spicy. By the look from their faces, I could tell it really made their taste buds jiggled in a good way of course. You also must try their irresistible deep fried prawn-fritters which were really crispy on the outside and succulent on the inside. The prawns were really, really fresh and tasted very sweet. I guess that is why this place is always crowded.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe deep fried prawn fritters are to die for!\n\n\n\nAll in all, our gastronomical journey in Kuala Sepetang was really a pleasant one as we got to try the famous Curry Mee Noodles, Loh Mee and Prawn Fritters.

So have you tried the food in Go Noodle House?\n\n\n\n\nYou can buy the wine at Go Noodle House \ud83d\ude00\n\n\n\n\n\nHappy 14th Anniversary To My One & Only Wife \ud83d\ude18\n\n\n\nVisit one of the 37 outlets of Go Noodle House in Malaysia\n\nFor more information: www.facebook.com/GoNoodleHouse\n\n"} {"title": "Chinese New Year Reunion Dinner Buffet at Double Tree Melaka", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nI wanted to publish about one of our best Chinese New Year reunion dinner buffets in Melaka...but I just could not find the right timing to do so...so here is my overdue write up about how we walloped our scrumptious Chinese New Year Reunion Dinner Buffet at Double Tree Melaka. Honestly this was my first time trying out a buffet dinner during the spring festive season as we usually had 8 or 9-course dinner instead. It was a pleasantly inviting change to say the least as we helped ourselves to the mouth-watering cuisines that will surely leave you wanting for more. The menu for this Chinese New Year Reunion Dinner Buffet at Double Tree Melaka is totally out of this world!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore attending this Chinese New Year buffet dinner, my wife and our children kept on wondering what would be served? How would the menu be like? Would there be the usual desserts that come with other buffets? Once we entered the Makan Place where our buffet was being hosted, all our questions were gleefully answered. The first sight which grasped our attention was non other than the vibrant colours of desserts\u00a0which totally bedazzled us with the Chinese New Year theme! There was even a mini lion dance which waited for our arrival. Ha \ud83d\ude09\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at the design~simply meticulous\u00a0\n\n\nWe are utterly impressed by the Happiness Lantern with lychee chrysanthemum mouse and raspberry. The Prosperity Citrus were equally gorgeous and inviting as well, would not mind having a few slices. Since it is the year or Rat, Double Tree decided to usher the new lunar year with Mice's Cheese made from mango cheese cake. It was zesty and refreshing at the same time and not to mention very comical. That was why Jordan boy and Jasmine girl really enjoyed the desserts a lot. I must say that a lot of intricate details were involved. 2 thumbs up! \ud83d\udc4d\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Lunar New Year Desserts\n\n\n\n\n\nAn assortment of kuih-muih\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMini Ping-pie\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOmochi anyone?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDeep Fried Sesame Balls!\n\n\nThat's not all~we were also served with other traditional Chinese delicacies such as chilled mini Ping-Pie in adorable gold-fish shapes. Colourful omochi in tangerine forms? Besides some assorted chinese biscuits and the creamy Chinese Egg tarts (that you should not miss), I have personally sampled the deep fried sesame balls and thought they were really crunchy and of course sweet. And not to forget their very own in-house Prosperity Tau Fu Fa which was extremely rich and creamy. *drooling* \ud83d\ude03\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOat Curry Butter Prawn\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nStewed Slice Clam Abalone with Black Mushroom and Broccoli\u00a0\n\n\n\n\nWok Fried Nian Gao with Dried Shrimps\n\n\nDesserts aside, let us look at the star cuisines that would be really filling our tummies that night. No Chinese New Year reunion dinner is ever complete without prawns and the first one that made me drool was the Oat Curry Butter Prawn. I love the texture on the outside which was a bit crunchy and one bite on the soft, succulent prawn meat on the inside would convert you into seafood lover if you are not one already. The second cuisine that really whetted my appetite was the Stewed Slice Clam Abalone with Black Mushroom and Broccoli. The Wok Fried Nian Gao with Dried Shrimps and Smoked Black Bean Striploin were dishes that you should sample as well.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPeking Duck with Mini Mantau Bun\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMore juicy prawns for you to sink your teeth into\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSpicy crabs\n\n\nAnother spotlight cuisine that is really worth mentioning was the Peking Duck with Mini Mantau Bun. I must say that the soft fluffy buns really complement the tenderness of the Peking Duck! *drooling* I actually had quite a few servings. Those who love crabs would surely be licking the spicy crabs available at their disposal. That's not all~those who wanted to savour a different kind of Chinese New Year menu would be happy at the sight of fusion dishes which featured exquisite decorations plus exotic menu which include octopus. \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's fusion time\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nPrawn taking a deep in mayonnaise\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOctopus anyone\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nToo exquisite to be eaten \ud83d\ude02\n\n\nOf course the highlight for any Chinese New Year Reunion Dinner Buffet has gotta be none other than the must-have Yee Sang Tossing which symbolizes prosperity and abundance. Since it was a special occasion, our Yee Sang Tossing session saw a few of the chefs from Double Tree joining us to make the celebration more festive and meaningful. Everyone was obviously very elated and excited to usher the new year of the Rat, so much so that we tossed our Yee Sang as \"high\" as we could while uttering phrases which would bring good tidings and luck.\n\n\n\n\n\nYee Sang time! \ud83d\ude06\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's toss our Yee Sang!\n\n\nIf your hunger pangs are still not satisfied after enjoying all the Chinese New Year cuisines, fret not as there are other delightful dishes to gratify your cravings. We had a few servings of roti naan and thoroughly enjoyed the spicy curry. Want to have your usual Hainanese Chicken Rice fix? No worries as you can get to enjoy it here as well. The fragrant rice and tender chicken meat will make you come back for another helping. How about satay? I am sure we Malaysians cannot resist the calling of these delicious skewed meat. Yum~yum!\n\n\n\n\n\nA must-have for any occasion~SATAY!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOne of Malaysians all-time favourites-Naan\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nCrispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nRice and curry\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMust have chicken rice? Here you go.\n\n\nAll in all, I would highly recommend Double Tree Melaka for those who want to enjoy your Chinese New Year Reunion Dinner Buffet in the future. I would give a rating of 10 out of 10 for our scintillating dining experience at Double Tree Melaka. The ambiance was unbelievably comfortable and relaxing (which explains why we ate a lot) and the menu was really extraordinary even for a glutton like me. By the way I really love their Coffee Machine and I had like more than 10 cups of coffee! Bahaha~Guess we will be returning next year for our Chinese New Year Reunion Dinner again in 2021. \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's dig in \ud83d\ude03\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Wifey enjoying her meal\n\n\n\n\n\nTold you we must have satay\u00a0 \ud83d\ude19\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine savouring every single bite of her food\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDouble Tree by Hilton Melaka\n\nAddress: Hatten City, Jalan Melaka Raya 23, Bandar Hilir, 75000 Melaka.\n\nWebsite:\u00a0Double Tree Melaka\n\nFacebook:\u00a0www.facebook.com/DoubleTreeMLK\n\nInstagram:\u00a0www.instagram.com/doubletreemlk\n\nContact: 06-2223333\n\n"} {"title": "Best 5 Restaurants In George Town, Penang", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nFamously known as the Pearl of Orient, Penang is one of the most visited states in Malaysia thanks to its vibrant culture, countless historical buildings and sites, amazing murals and of course glorious food that will make you drool from miles away.

If you are looking for an awesome staycation if you were to visit Melaka, then DoubleTree is the place to be.

Soon enough we began to feel right at home and we started our gastronomic journey in Christmas wonderland. We were awestruck when we saw the glorious spread of scrumptious food right before our eyes. To say that the food was beautiful and delicious is truly an understatement. Honestly speaking I felt like I was in an art exhibition, with displays of mouth-watering dishes that will surely make you hungry.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese mashed potatoes are great\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nFragrant squid\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nJuicy\u00a0striploin beef\n\n\n\n\n\nThis spicy lamb dish is highly recommended as well\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEat till you drop \ud83d\ude02\n\nOf course, no Christmas dinner buffet is complete without the must-have roasted turkey right? The executive chef explained that the whole turkey was marinated and brined overnight so that the juice and flavour of the turkey can be retained. When he sliced open the turkey for us, the whiff of delectable aroma instantly permeated the air, making us drool. The baby chicken with raisin, herb and mushroom sauce was also very tasty and flavoursome. I love sinking my teeth into the lamb shank varuval which was spicy and very appetizing.\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's indulge in some exotic desserts\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeef lovers will rejoice at the sight of the grilled herb crusted striploin beef.

When you think about the famous big bear, straight away their Top 1 Signature Roasted Brown Sugar Pearl Fresh Milk with burnt cheese will pop up in your mind right? But do you know that besides bubble milk tea, Daboba is also famous for their sinfully delicious Mango Frappe? Yours truly me have personally tasted it and it was really darn good!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHave you tried any of the frappe beverages at Doboba?\n\n\n\n\nIf you want something other than bubble milk tea when you are at Daboba, I highly recommend that you give their frappe beverages a try especially the aforementioned Mango Frappe. From the menu, there are 3 different flavours of frappe for you to savour namely Mango Frappe (Yogurt), Matcha Frappe (Cheese) and Coco Frappe (Cheese). I have tried all 3 and they are absolutely scrumptious to say the least. You really need to try them all as each of the frappes is extremely delectable in their very own unique way *Drooling* Trust me!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom left: Coco Frappe (cheese), Mango Frappe (yogurt) & Matcha Frappe (Cheese)\n\nWhat's your flavour?\n\n\n\n\nIf I have to choose a winner, Mango Frappe will come out on top as it is not only delightfully refreshing but also really, really flavourful. The moment you have your first sip, your eyes will be wide open as the luscious frappe tantalizes your taste buds in ways you cannot imagine. The heavenly combination of\u00a0 mango and yogurt in the frappe is really something to die for! The best part is, this dainty beverage is filled with so many REAL mango chunks that really add to the texture of the frappe. I understand that each of the mango frappe is made up of almost one mango fruit. So it is truly a gratifying beverage+dessert if you ask me.\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready to indulge? \ud83d\ude0d\ud83d\ude0d\ud83d\ude0d\n\n\nGreen tea lovers will relish in the Matcha Frappe with cheese that is specially made for you. The alluring aroma of green tea complemented by the fresh cheese will really invigorate you straight from the first sip. Any chocoholic in the house? If you raised your hand then this Daboba's Coco Frappe\u00a0 with cheese is the \"Shangri-la\" chocolaty beverage that you have been dreaming of. It's like drinking molten chocolate that is creamy and thirst-quenching at the same time. How I wish I could have another sip right now.\n\n\n\n\n\nJust look at her face... \ud83d\ude01\ud83d\ude1c\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0When you get to enjoy premium frappe that is damn creamy and delicious!\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan is enjoying his Coco Frappe while wifey is happily sipping her Matcha!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYours truly me? Mango Frappe is the best of course\n\n\nIf you prefer something other than bubble milk tea or the 3 recommended frappes I have mentioned earlier, you can try their equally good Butterfly Pea Seasons Tea or Passion Fruit Green Tea. Honestly speaking both these teas are very distinctively different from their previous nectarous bubble milk teas and frappes. I would say that both the tea drinks are for those who love tea or something lighter after a meal. In fact, if you want a beverage which will help to digest the food in your bloated tummy, you might want to opt for the irresistibly sour Passion Fruit Green Tea. \ud83d\udc4d\ud83d\ude00\n\n\n\n\n\nThe enigmatic Butterfly Pea Seasons Tea\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nAny passion fruit lovers here?\n\nPassion Fruit Green Tea\n\n\nSo have you tried any of the 5 beverages that I have recommended today? Honestly there is no denying that each of the frappes is definitely a must-try, especially the mango frappe. As for both the teas, though I find them to be exotic, they are still not bad. Then again make sure you have tried their Top 1 Signature Roasted Brown Sugar Pearl Fresh Milk beverage before you indulge in any of the frappes or teas that they are selling.

Located strategically in Kota Syahbandar together with other bubble milk tea shops, I am sure that Daboba will be give the other shops a run for their money. Initially we thought we would be lost among the buildings, trying to locate the our destination. However, the moment we arrived we knew where we were heading exactly thanks to the unmistakable \"BEAR\" which was greeting us from afar.\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold the Top 1 & Top 2 Signature Bubble Milk Tea in Daboba\n\nTop 1 (right): Roasted Brown Sugar Pearl Fresh Milk\n\nTop 2 (Left): Honey Golden Pearl Green Milk Tea\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready to indulge in the BEST in Daboba?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe premium layer of cheese on top really adds so much layer of taste\u00a0\n\n\n\nWhen we stepped in, the friendly tearistas were happily greeting us waiting to help us be seated. We were really impressed with the decor and design of the shop. The simplicity really accentuates the calming, cozy vibes that we are intended to feel and bask in. My wife and 2 kids really enjoyed the ambiance as they could be seen gleefully making themselves at home. I like the hues of the furniture as it complements the wallpapers really well. Of course the iconic Daboba Bear being featured on one of the walls really make the whole place very instagrammable. Besides my kids, I was also really elated with the presence of the big, furry bear. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nWe were taught by the Tearista how to drink their signature bubble milk tea\n\n\n\nThe first two beverages that the tearista sent to our table were their signature Top 1 and Top 2 bubble milk tea.

The fragrance of the roasted sugar which permeates the air and will definitely whet your appetite, prompting you wanting to sip your prized drinks as soon as possible. I know that was what I did-keep on sipping my bubble milk tea while chewing on the flavourful pearls which were just of the right size and springiness. ~Al Dante~ Not to mention every single one of them were delightfully dainty.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Brown Sugar Pearl Matcha & Brown Sugar Pearl Coco\n\n\n\n\n\nThe look on their faces said it best right?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMommy and daughter moment\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOur family really had a great time at Daboba\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSiblings love\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOK~Jordan boy said that the bear was thirsty so...\n\n\n\n\nHoney Golden Pearl Green Milk Tea was the second bubble milk tea that we had sampled. Being the Top 2 signature beverage for Daboba, it is perfect for those who love to pleased by the divine nectarous honey. The next two bubble milk teas that we had a great time slowly sipping were the Brown Sugar Pearl Coco and Brown Sugar Pearl Matcha. Both were distinctively good and I am truly surprised as I thought it would be diluted like other bubble milk teas. In fact both the Brown Sugar Pearl Coco and Brown Sugar Pearl Matcha were really flavourful and rich, leaving pleasant lasting aftertaste, that will linger in your mouth. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Boss-cum-Tearista was busy roasting the brown sugar on top of the cheese\n\n\n\n\n\nPerfectly roasted and it smelled so damn good\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYou really gotta to try this when you visit Daboba\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe bosses were really meticulous and friendly. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nFull menu of Daboba (subject to change without prior notice)\n\n\n\n\nA look at the menu will leave you astounded.

Do bring along your friends and family to savour scrumptious feast at Thyme All Day Dining at an unbelievable low price every Saturday and Sunday from 12:30pm till 4pm. Ready to enjoy unlimited spread of good food?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready to enjoy your Hi Tea?\n\n\n\n\nFor only RM38 per person, you get to indulge in countless lip smacking cuisines that will surely linger in your mouth for hours to come. For starters what should you take first? As for me, first off the block I immediately stormed towards the desserts station to grab as many of those nectarous colourful cakes and sweet bites. Surely those with sweet tooth will not have second thought devouring these sweet offerings; Likewise the others might need to just enjoy first and diet repent later. You don't want to miss the dessert for sure. LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is dessert time\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThis cheese cake is really damn good\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan't help but fall in love with these lovely, sweet bites\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis reminds me of Baymax :p\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSweet and nectarous cakes\n\n\nAfter we are done taking our shares of desserts, we started to grab our entree and main courses. They were practically too many dishes for us to choose from in this Hi Tea. So we grab almost everything right before our eyes and drooling mouths. One of the dishes that really hit all the notes was the lusciously good Claypot Chicken Rice. I particularly loved the flavourful broth that went really well with the fragrant rice. The tender chicken meat and the delicate mushroom really added so much texture to the whole dish, making it one of the best for our lunch. Yummy! :)\n\n\n\n\n\nThere are several irresistible main courses for you to choose from\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nClaypot chicken rice is a must try\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSweet and sour chicken with cashew nuts\n\n\nThe other dish that I highly recommend is the sweet and sour chicken peppered with generous amount of cashew nuts. The chicken strips were marinated flawlessly and cooked to perfection, giving them that delectable succulent taste. I must say that I enjoy eating the cuts of onions and vegetables which really dovetailed with the button mushrooms. (YES! I love mushrooms). This is yet another dish that goes really well with diners who cannot live without rice.\n\n\n\n\n\nReady for a flaming dish?\n\n\nChilli-heads will be loving their grilled fish with spicy sambal paste. I believe the fish were first marinated with tumeric and other spices before they were grilled sublimely. I love how the skin of the fish was so crispy and yet the white inviting flesh was so scrumptiously juicy. Add the sambal (chilli paste) and you get a fiery combo that will surely leave you wanting for more despite toungue-burning sensation. Hot and spicy indeed! :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Totally love the satay\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Roasted chicken\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLusciously delightful wedges. Yum! Yum!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLove this fragrant fried rice. :)\n\n\nIf you cannot live without Malaysian Streetfood like me, you will be elated to see the presence of our famous Satay in the company of \"Nasi Himpit\", onions, cucumber and of course the sambal paste.The other dishes that we enjoyed eating were the roasted chicken, omelette, cheesy wedges and stir fried cabbages. The roasted chicken though looked rather ordinary, the crispy skin and the dainty meat would make you think otherwise. My children really enjoyed the creamy omelette and of course the irresistible cheesy wedges which were beautifully dressed with loads of divine mayonnaise for that added flavourful palate. I can see that they really love it as they kept on stuffing them into their tiny mouths. LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\nPorridge anyone?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSimple but very satisfying\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBread and butter and other ingredients of course\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl loves her \"homemade\" sandwich. :)\n\n\nThose who prefer something lighter and less sinful can opt for their porridge which was equally delicious. If you want something not so heavy, you can also have bread and butter together with egg and chicken slices. You can also head over to their noodle station whereby you can choose the types of noodle that you want to enjoy and mix it (them) with other ingredients to make it yours. You will be literally spoiled for choices here as there were so many different ingredients to mix and match. So what will you throw in? Sausages? Fishballs? Eggs or sweetcorns? Well you can have it all as this is after all a Hi Tea Lunch Buffet.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat is your type of noodle?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nFishball? Tauhu? Corn?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can be your own chef at the noddles station\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Wifey is busy preparing our noodles.

Though our stomachs were visibly stuffed to the max, our insatiable taste buds were still craving for more sweet comfort food. The sight of the glorious cakes, colourful puddings and adorable pastries were really difficult to resist. I wish I knew the names of the desserts that I have wolfed down. Ha :D Last but not least, if you want to have \"salvation\" or that feeling that you have not eaten uncontrollably, you can of course sample a few slices of fruits to make your gastronomical journey less sinful. Then again this is a buffet, so just eat whatever you can and exercise later.

Without a doubt, it is one of the best hotels in Melaka where you should be staying during the Ramadhan or upcoming Hari Raya holidays.

Themed as Rasa-Rasa Ramadhan, foodies will be tantalized by the rich Ramadhan flavours that will surely overwhelm them. The lavish banquet is teeming with our fovourite Malaysian cuisines as well as a whole slew of delightful international cuisines. Rest assured that like me you will be holding your plate not knowing where you should start. Literally, there will be too many choices and you might need to take a bit of everything (just like me). Though there was too much on my plate(s), I just couldn't help it.

The passionate chef was already busy slicing the juicy drool-inducing lamb into smaller pieces so that it will easier for us-gluttons to just touch and go. Don't forget to grab the amazingly fragrant Dhal Rice with peas which really complemented the well-marinated lamb.

Throw in the ingredients and mix-mix (gado-gado) them together with the carefully prepared chili sauces and cancalok which really tinged my taste buds. Moving on, you can also enjoy various ulam-ulaman (raw vegetables) that will surely bring you back to the past and reminisce the good old days when you got to appreciate the common rural delicacies. If you are feeling kinda \"salty\", do indulge in the various salted fishes and salted egg as well. By the way there was also banana-leaves-wrapped lemang for those who want to revel in the bamboo-cooked glutinous rice.

Other main dishes that you guys should not miss are the toothsome Tumis Pertola Udang Kering, Sauteed Beef with Onion and Ginger, Rendang Hati Rembau and Sambal Ikan just to name a few.

Hatten Place is also very thoughtful as they have also prepared the more common delicacies that we are used to such as grilled fish, roti canai, roti John, SATAY (YES!), popiah and even sotong kangkung. Those who prefer to have noodles for dinner will be glad to know there is a noodle station to whet their appetite.

Have a penchant for steamed food? Then you are in luck as there are steamed corns and chickpeas for you to munch on.\u00a0Can't live without a date during this Ramadhan? Fret not as there will be a variety of delicious dates for you to sample in this buffet. There was pengat pisang and pulut hitam (black glutinuous rice) for those who love traditional Malaysian desserts. I preferred the latter while my wife voted for the former: so there is everything for everyone in this Ramadhan buffet dinner.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Welcome to the SWEETEST corner of the Ramadhan Buffet-desserts!\n\n\n\n\n\nLuscious marble cheese that will leave you wanting for more\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0One bite and you will be hooked!\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Snowy white with a hint of blueberry\n\n\n\n\n\nA heaven made of chocolates\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nArtistic desserts\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSweet tooth rejoice!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nNectarous delight\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Goreng-goreng station\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Banana cakes\n\n\n\n\n\nFluffy polka dots\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMy all-time favourite Malay cake\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOk!

After eating for almost an hour (seriously), our bloated stomachs had raised the white flags, telling us that they could no longer take in anything; However our taste buds had other ideas-to keep on eating! And so the sweet tooth in us went to the desserts corner to grab a few more helpings to gratify our addiction for those luscious treats and exquisite confectionery. Boy~we were really astounded by how well these desserts were \"crafted\" especially the heavenly marble cheese cakes! There was even chocolate fondue for chocoholics who love to dip everything into the hot molten cocoa. Dayum! My kids and I really loved the brownies. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0For bread lovers!\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Little Jasmine loves her loaves of bread\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is the best roasted lamb I have tried for the whole month.\n\nCrispy on the outside and yet tender and juicy on the inside.\n\nSucculent...I am drooling right now...\n\n\n\n\n\nWe really enjoyed our Ramadhan Buffet Dinner at Hattan Place\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nRoasted lamb with rosemary and mint sauces\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nNothing can stop us from eating these candy-coated bites!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nGado-gado got really elevated my appetite!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey enjoying her pengat pisang!\n\n\n\n\n\nMy applause for them.

DAYUM!\n"} {"title": "Ramadhan Buffet Dinner at Cofeology Cafe & Restaurant", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nBy now I am sure a lot of 'orang Melaka', especially those residing near MMU (Multimedia University) have heard of Cofeology Cafe & Restaurant right? We Malaccans know that this is the place you can enjoy delectable western food and premium artisan coffee. But do you know that they serve Ramadhan Buffet Dinner as well in their cafe? YES! You read this right: For the whole holy month of Ramadhan, all citizens of Melaka will have the privilege to enjoy sinfully sumptuous Ramadhan Buffet Dinner at Cofeology!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0At the entrance of Cofeology\n\n\n\n\n\nSo a few days ago yours truly me was hunting for iftar with my family when I stumbled upon this hidden gem. Honestly speaking, I still could not believe that this cafe actually serves Ramadhan Buffet dinner because it looks so chic and cozy, the usual kind of vibe that you will get from a coffee house. Once I was in, those unmistakable spreads of glorious ramadhan food quickly greeted me. We arrived early on that day but my hunch told me that the place would be crowded real soon, hence we quickly went to book out table and the sight of those iconic dried dates were pleasantly awaiting for us on our table. A very thoughtful touch indeed. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Syrup and dates awaiting you\n\n\n\n\n\nCan I have a cup of coffee please? :D\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLove the decor\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nJust look at those light bulbs\n\n\n\nThe whole set up was really beautiful and the ambiance was nothing short of mesmerizing if you ask me. I particularly love the light bulbs in the cafe as they were so grandiloquent, illuminating the whole place with their glimmering aureate hues. Perhaps that was why I felt Cofeology was such a warm and amiable place to be. The decor was really beautiful in a rustic way with charming and yet recognizable wallpapers of coffee cups, coffee beans and quotes about coffee-which yours truly me really love. All in all I am the ambiance deserves my two thumbs up.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Time to makan!\n\n\n\n\n\nReady to dig in?\n\n\n\nAfter we were done being in awe at the sight of those grandiose lights and fascinating decor, the ambrosial whiff of food began to tickle our noses. I could smell the sweet scent of fried chicken and the salted fish enticing me to grab my plate and fork. It was time for iftar or buka buasa...or in other words dinner time. Then again my family actually waited for our Muslim friends to have their dinner first as they had been fasting for the whole day; Then only we started to make our move. No worries as there was plenty of scrumptious food for everyone. After all it was Ramadhan Buffer Dinner! Let's dig in!\n\n\n\n\n\nThe waiter and waitress were really friendly. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nLamb*drooling*\n\n\n\n\n\nI wish I could eat this again!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBraised beef\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nVegetables and prawns\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Everyone was having a great time buka puasa-ing at Cofeology!\n\n\n\n\n\nThe look on his face says it all. :)\n\n\n\nMy! My! Where should I start? Would it be the tantalizing rendang chicken or the juicy, divine lamb slices with rosemary sauce? Should I just grab a few crispy fried chickens or some of those mouth-watering salted fish? How about those colouful desserts dancing on another table, waiting to jump onto my plates? Decision~decision and by then the glutton in me could not make up my mind anymore. Since it was a buffet, we just \"catch caught them all\" and put them on our table. I really could not contain my excitement when the food was right before my eyes~let's enjoy folks!\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Fried chicken anyone?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0These crispy and yet juicy fried chickens are top notch!\n\n\n\n\n\nFlavorful rendang chicken!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Chicken Ham Salad\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Salted fish\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Gotta grab them real fast\n\n\n\n\n\nNo buka puasa is complete without these dried dates\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Salad on a bamboo anyone?\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Jelly good papadom\n\n\n\n\n\nEvery decoration is meticulously thought\n\n\n\nPersonally, I truly enjoyed eating the stewed lamb as it was cooked to perfection. The flawlessly marinated meat was juicy and luscious making every bite a pure pleasure. Surely the chef had done an awesome job to make sure that the lamb which required a bit more coaxing was tender enough to slice with our forks~al dante I would say. Both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl really enjoyed their fried chicken and I could see why. I had a bite too and immediately the sinfully tender, succulent chicken encased in a layer of crispy deep fried batter aroused my taste buds, rendering me to have a mouth-gasm! BAM!\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0 Let's return to our table, shall we?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0It's time to have dinner\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis was only the first round\n\n\n\n\nOnce we were done walloping our main dishes, it was time for appetizers. We sampled various desserts of different hues and shapes that I thought were really, really dainty. I particularly loved the green pandan cake which was so rich and flavourful! Not only was it very aromatic, the texture was soft and the taste was unbelievably distinctive. I had a lot of them to say the least...BUURRPPP. There were also ice creams and other notable desserts like bubur cha cha which my wife highly recommends.\n\n\n\n\n\nTold you fried chicken was good!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen a picture says a thousand words\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMy two beautiful girls enjoying their Ramadhan Buffet Dinner\n\n\n\nI am really happy that I brought my family to experience buka puasa at this cafe as we could luxuriate in various gratifying Arabian and Malaccan Traditional Malay cuisines. Our savory feast was really satisfying and each of us wish we could return for more as there are 7 different menus for every single day. Each day there will be more than 40 different types of glorious food and beverages to whet your appetite. Muslim friends who wish to have their iftar here will be glad to know that Cofeology provides a very cozy and spacious \"tempat solat\" (prayer place) for you to perform your prayers. Very thoughtful of them.\n\n\n\n\n\nLusciously divine pandan cake!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nGula Melaka cake?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0These are good as well\n\n\n\n\n\nThey say ice cream is the best!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Right?\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl gleefully holding her cup of ice cream!\n\n\n\n\n\nThe ice cream is good right? :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMuslim friends will have spacious place to perform their prayers\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nQasidah Performance\n\n\n\nThose who enjoy your iftar here will also have the privilege to enjoy Qasidah performance by a group of orphanages. So here is the best part about iftar in Cofeology-do you know that part of payment you make for your buka puasa dinner will be contributed to this group of orphans which is being sponsored by the cafe for the whole month? Speaking about doing good deeds in the holy month right? So with great food and great ambiance, Cofeology is definitely the place for you to enjoy one of the best Ramadhan Buffets in Melaka in 2019! Make sure you make your reservations early to enjoy Early-bird promotion!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOMG!

Yours truly me just had a feast fit for a king at this international 4-star hotel with my family last week for its Ramadhan Buffet preview and boy we really, really enjoyed ourselves. All the food was so delightful ranging from the inviting appetizers to the dainty desserts!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReady to for a gastronomic ride?\n\n\n\n\nLocated in the heart of Melaka City, Novotel Melaka is just a stone's throw away from the various must-visit historical landmarks such as A'Famosa, St. Paul's Church and Dutch Square just to name a few. Undeniably, it is one of the best hotels for your staycation should you want to visit Melaka during the holy month. Personally I have had buffet dinner in this place before previously and it was already very delicious. However this Ramadhan Buffet was really on another level and it totally blew my mind with its wide range of gastronomic delights. Even my picky children and demanding wifey were all praise for this scrumptious spread.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI went straight to grab my roasted lamb\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYou will be drooling like me too\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThere are 3 different sauces to choose from\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nAnd the fragrant Arabian Rice\n\n\n\n\nThis year, the theme for the Ramadhan Buffet chosen by Novotel Melaka is Selera Warisan Ramadhan which can be translated to Ramadhan Heritage Cuisines. Food lovers will immediately be dumbstruck by the sheer amount of food that is at their disposal, I know I did. Not only can one feast on our favourite Malaysian dishes, you will also be enjoying countless international platters. In other words you will be spoiled for choices and towards the end you will realize that you have too much on your plate...literally!\n\n\n\n\n\nKapitan Mutton\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSalmon Fish Head Curry\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nTok's Rendang Beef\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nKhasmir Curry Chicken\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nVegetables with salted fish\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBe WARNED that this Ramadhan Buffet is perfect for those who want to indulge in\u00a0 the finer food in Melaka...excessively! In other words, gluttons like me will definitely enjoy all the food that we can stuff into our mouth. First and foremost, the moment we were given the green light, yours truly me headed straight to the roasted lamb station on the outside first. As expected, there was already a bee line of people lining up with their empty plates to get a piece of the delectable \"Kambing Golek\". Sitting nicely next to the lamb was the fragrant Arabian Rice (Nasi Arab) which really complement the grilled lamb with its soft, fluffy texture. There were 3 different sauces to go with your Arabian rice and grilled lamb and I picked the black pepper sauce which of course made the whole dish even more tantalizing.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThousand island\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nPetai anyone?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThose who savour something more traditional will be glad to know that there will be nasi ulam together with some raw vegetables such as petai, carrot, cucumber and tiny tomatoes just to name a few for you to savour. Other main courses include the appetizing Kambing Masak Kapitan, herbaceous Daging Rendang Tok, slightly spicy Ayam Kari Khasmir and toothsome Ikan Keli Masak Lemak Nangka. By now I am sure you will be drooling like me. I was literally at my wits' end, deciding which cuisine I should try. Decisions~Decisions! Oh by the way, I really enjoyed their crunchy Sayur Kailan with salted fish even though I am not a veggie kind of person.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCrispy and yummy!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis tasted really exotic. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nAww...who doesn't like cencalok?\n\n\nSalad lovers need to rejoice as there is a fresh salad bar dedicated specially for them. I did not touch any of the salads as I am more carnivorous. LOL :D Those who enjoy eating fish will be elated to know that there will be the lip-smacking Portuguese Grilled fish that is wrapped in ambrosial banana leaf. The fiery sambal really brought out the savory taste of the meat. Make sure you help yourself with a few servings of these. There were also chicken and beef satays for those who love to eat skewered meat served with distinctive chili paste.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo what do you wanna grill?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nCrowd's favourite-Ikan Bakar Portuguese\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMurtabak!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy children love this!\n\n\nMy children really enjoyed the freshly made murtabak a lot. In fact they had more than one serving of this stuff pancake which is crunchy on the outside and damn tasty on the inside thanks to its filling. The dal must have been really good as well as I saw my kids busy dipping the murtabak into it. Next, we tried the laksa which was also very, very good. The spicy broth was bursting with flavors which really made the noodle very pleasant. Those who want to try something less spicy can opt for western spaghetti and pastas. I ordered mine and requested it to be complemented with chicken bolognese sauce. The moment I sink my teeth into my pasta...I was so, so damn surprised...it was so soft and springy at the same time-AL DANTE-and the chicken bolognese sauce was really, really luscious, that I kept on spooning more into my gaping mouth. Dayum!\n\n\n\n\n\nPasta anybody?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPasta with super ambrosial bolognese chicken!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThis tasted really, really, really GOOOOOD!\n\n\nWe were almost full by then...but our bloated stomachs were not going to stop us from savouring one of the best food we had in this Ramadhan Buffet-DESSERTS! I am not just talking about any ordinary desserts, mind you! You will be able to feast on a banquet of royally luscious desserts that are fit for a king! I doubt you could ever finish all of them even if you just take each of every different desserts available. Jordan boy and Jasmine girl were obviously having a great time munching on these dainty, colourful desserts which look like something borrowed from movies. Even my picky wife agreed that the desserts were really good.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe desserts are to die for!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMake sure you are quick!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nAll of them look so delicious! Damn it!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThese desserts are work of arts!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Red Velvet\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is my personal favourite-you must try it!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTraditional Kuih anyone?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBubur Cha Cha and Pengat\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nFruits for health conscious glutton? :p\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nEven the bread looks so good\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am impressed to know that they also provide traditional Malay Kuih (Cakes), kurma (dates) and even dodol. Those who wish to savour desserts which are more Malaysian can always opt for pengat, cendol and bubur cha cha which were really, really good. Another highlight for me personally about this Novotel Melaka is its coffee machines! Honestly any hotel which provides free flow of gourmet-like coffee deserve my attention and worth my mention. Yours truly me had at least 4 cups of coffee after my gratifying meals. Too bad there is a limit to how much I could drink. I am sure I could have a few more lattes and cappuccinos if I could stay longer. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nTime to dig in!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWe really had a feast!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSucculent, juicy roasted lamb with Arabian rice! Hmmm...Hmmm....\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nObviously Jordan boy loved all the desserts\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you enjoy yourself? :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWe sure did right?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you for all the glorious food!\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0There will also be Ghazal Performance\n\n\n\n\n\nCoffee makes everything taste much better!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYours truly me is greedy. Bahahaha :D\n\n\nAll in all, my family and I truly enjoyed the good food here and we really wish to return to enjoy more of their wonderful morsels of cuisines and desserts. Frankly speaking, I feel guilty as I could not try all the food here. Why? Because there were simply too many different types of divine food but so little stomach space.

Besides serving delicious food which will be cheap, we also want to have a very cozy ambiance to enjoy our lunch as well. That was when we stumbled upon Thyme All Day Dining in Hatten Place which ticked all our boxes (Good food, cheap price, cozy environment). Honestly I was really shocked the moment I arrived at the place. Everything looked so unbelievably classy! The receptionist and the waiter were already there waiting for us with arms wide open-speaking about top notch customer service. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYours truly me enjoying the breathtaking view. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOk time to order our food.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe waiters here are truly excellent!\n\n\n\n\n\nSo what shall we eat?\n\n\n\nAs we were relatively early, we got to choose where we wanted to have our lunch. The amiable waiter then ushered us to our table with a stunning sea-view. Nestled in a slightly secluded corner, we enjoyed sitting on the comfortable curvilinear sofa while selecting what we would have for our lunch. How much do you think you need to pay to have lunch in such high-class, posy environment? Do you know that each set would only cost RM14.90 each with bottomless Iced Lemon Tea? YES! Only RM14.90! I was so taken aback by the price tag that I ordered 5 different dishes. Besides we were really starving back then. LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\nOur lunch has arrived\n\n\n\nThe first dish that landed on our table was the Claypot Chicken Rice set which was served with salted fish. This dish was perfectly cooked as every grain of fragrant rice had been coated with the savory broth which really whetted our appetite. The tender, divine chicken meat, the ambrosial salted fish and the toothsome chunks of shitake mushrooms really dovetailed to tantalize our taste buds. Two thumbs up for this dish. Oh! Did I mention that the portion was very generous and two adults could actually enjoy this dish together.\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold the ginormous Claypot Chicken Rice!\n\nCan you spot the salted fish? :p\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nEvery single bite was truly flavourful\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI love it\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife enjoyed this dish as well.\n\n\n\nOur next dish was the Thyme Dunked Chicken Burger which was of course an in-house specialty at Thyme All Day Dining. In fact I would say that this is the must-try dish for all patrons as it was really packed with wholesome homemade goodness. This very presentable burger is laden with homemade pepper sauce, onions and of course homemade chicken patty! OMG~the flavorful\u00a0chicken patty was so, so, so tender and succulent that I admit I wanted to order another one. So while our kids were biting away the crispy tapioca chips, yours truly me was feasting on the heavenly burger! I really wanted to have this again on our next visit!\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Thyme Dunked Chicken Burger\n\n\n\n\n\nHomemade goodness. The patty was so (OUUHHHH) tender and juicy!\n\n\n\n\n\nI thought this is like one of the best burgers I have ever sunk my teeth into!\n\n\n\nI am not a lamb person but our next dish the Lamb Briyani proved me wrong. The ghee rice which came with the Lamb Briyani was really soft, fluffy and delightful. Our juicy Lamb Briyani was very delectable and there was no hint of any gamy scent from our well-marinated mutton. I guess what made the briyani lamb here so tasty was the dainty gravy which was truly smooth and appetizing. I must admit that after having this flavorsome dish, I still felt very hungry despite my bloated stomach having said otherwise.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Up next was Briyani Lamb\n\n\n\n\n\nThe lamb was flawlessly marinated and cooked.\n\nThe ghee rice was astoundingly aromatic.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you wanna have a bite?\n\n\n\nThose who love fish and curry will be glad to know that you can indulge in their Indian Fish Curry which is served with sauteed vegetables and steamed rice. Rest assured that the your rice will go really well with the rich curry which was a bit spicy and sweet at the same time-I know mine did. Thyme was really generous as they gave me at least 3 pieces of fish fillet to enjoy together with those equally juicy tomatoes, brinjal and okra aka lady finger. Definitely a must try for curry lover.\n\n\n\n\n\nCurry lover rejoice!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSpicy and sweet\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI love the vegetables that in the curry. :)\n\n\n\nLast but not least, the highlight of our lunch was the Butter Chicken With Oatmeal. It was mighty close to choose between the Thyme Dunked Chicken Burger and this dish. We love this dish so much thanks to its luscious, creamy texture together with a hint of spiciness which was really a divine combination to give you that mouthgasmic sensation. I added it to my white fluffy rice and the rest was truly an unforgettable palatable journey in my mouth. Dayum! Will surely return for this dish.\n\n\n\n\n\nOatmeal with Butter Chicken\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWithout a doubt the best dish here.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLove the creamy butter texture and the tingling spiciness that comes with it\n\nTruly lips smacking!\n\n\n\nTo top it off, you can enjoy BOTTOMLESS Iced Lemon Tea when you dine here. I actually ordered ours to be warm and of course what you wish is what you will get here thanks to the excellent service provided by the whole F&B team of Thyme. Honestly the setting of Thyme All Day Dining is probably the most beautiful one I have ever seen in Malacca. Everything looks so posh and classy here from the exquisite marble table to the artistic, comfy chair with armrest; From the spectacular view to the warm, soothing glow of bulbs which grace the whole place; Everything here looks really chic! You will definitely love the ambiance, trust me!\n\n\n\n\n\nWe had a feast at Thyme All Day Dining\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYeah~our little family can really eat a lot! :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey and daughter enjoying their meal.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine and Jordan snacking on the crispy tapioca chips\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at how happy they are.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nGood food! Great place!\n\nDefinitely the place to be if you wanna have lunch.\n\n\n\nSo if you are looking for a beautiful, comfortable place to enjoy delicious lunch during weekdays (12p.m. till 2:30pm) do head over to Thyme All Day Dining in Hatten Place and you will leave feeling truly gratified and fuller fatter. And you don't have to worry about beverages at all as you will be getting bottomless lemon tea when you purchase any of the sets here which will only cost you RM14.90.

So last weekend we embarked on our journey to the highest coffee club in Melaka. When we arrived at Hatten City, we needed to take the lift to go to the coffee club as\u00a0it is on the 43rd level of the building or around 850 steps *gasp* if we were to go up on foot. Honestly I was quite nervous when the lift operator hit the number for us to go up. The build-up of pressure in my ears confirmed that we were going to a whole new height to enjoy coffee (and desserts as well). :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's see what we should order.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSo many lip-smacking desserts to choose from\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDecision~decision!\n\n\n\n\nI am really impressed the moment I arrived at this highest coffee club in Melaka. I dare to claim that a visit to Aromas Coffee Club is not merely about gratifying your caffeine fix; In fact it is a complete sensory experience for coffee lovers and desserts aficionado. The coffee club itself is an elegant affair with classy, chic design which will surely make all your photos more Instagrammable. The atmosphere was so laid back, the curvilinear sofas were invitingly comfortable and the eclectic decor really worked wonder for the blissful ambiance. You will be mesmerized for sure!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFirst to land on our table.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe super friendly manager-Ms. Paula Fiona\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nFinishing touches-Expertly done\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOur deliciously scrumptious frappe!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI would die for one more Chocolate Chip Frappe\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nObviously our kids were eager to try as well. Ha :D\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey with her Mocha Green Tea Frappe\n\n\n\n\nAfter taking photos for quite some time, we finally could settle down and chose what we wanted for the evening. The ever amiable manager of Aromas-Ms. Paula introduced their signature Frappes which I thought was really, really good! We had four different Frappes to savour and they were Chocolate Chip Frappe, Mocha Green Tea Frappe, Caramel Chocolate Frappe and Caramel Frappe. I personally loved the Chocolate Chip Frappe while my wife enjoyed the Mocha Green Tea Frappe. How about my kids? Well...they love all of them as they were cold and sweet. Bahahaha :D Besides tasting so scintillatingly good, these frappes were a lovely sight to behold too, they look like arts...don't you agree?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRed Velvet & Strawberry Mousse\n\n\n\n\n\nChocolate Devil-It was devil-ishly flavorful!\n\n\n\n\n\nLuxuriously rich Marble Cheese Cake\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nJasming girl could not contain her joy\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOne for the family album\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's dig in!\n\n\n\n\nBesides the tasty frappe which got our taste buds intrigued for more, we soon got to sample desserts which looked so ornament-ally beautiful that it would be a crime to eat them. Then again, it would be an even heavier \"sin\" if we didn't sink our teeth into these lusciously rich cakes and mousse right? I really enjoyed our dainty Red Velvet Cake which reminded us of Christmas. Jordan boy and Jasmine girl really loved the Strawberry Mousse which tasted smooth and fluffy at the same time. Cheese lovers will\u00a0 adore the royally luxurious Marble Cheese Cake which was certainly one of the highlights in the coffee club. Obviously my favourite was the Devil Chocolate Cake which was really, really profoundly rich in cocoa. Every single spoon which went into my mouth tasted so heavenly. Dayum! I wish I could have another piece right now.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoying my Chocolate Chip Frappe at 190 meters height\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI love the breathtaking view\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nEven my Red Velvet Cake tasted better thanks to the magnificent night scenery\n\n\n\n\nThough I really enjoyed the frappe a lot, nothing beats a good cup of flawlessly brewed hot coffee right? That very sensation, knowing that you were slowly enjoying your sips of cafe noir at the highest place in Melaka\u00a0was such a thrilling experience for me. Looking at my beautiful cup of brew on the veneer table while allowing the pleasant aroma of the coffee to invigorate me, felt so paradisaical. The carbony aftertaste of my coffee really made me feel a bit ecstatic to say the least. I am sure the ambiance weighed in a lot as well.\u00a0 :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan't leave without my cup of coffee.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYupe~you will get a reward card. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMe-basking in the ambiance while in Aromas\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Coffee anyone?\n\n\n\n\n\nIt was really a tantalizing experience to be sipping my coffee at such height\n\n\n\n\nFor those who want to taste rich, refined coffee and enjoy deliciously gooey desserts that will leave lasting impression in your mouth and of course your head do head over to Aromas Coffee Club in Melaka. I would rate it as one of the best coffee clubs in Melaka.\u00a0Besides the height (being the highest coffee club in Melaka), I must lavish praises on the hospitality and amiability accorded by the barista and the manager of Aromas which was superbly excellent.

Isn't this a steal? For such unbelievable price tag, my wife, children and I had our very first Ramadan Buffet for 2019!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeel the Kampung ambiance at Temasek Hotel\n\n\n\n\nFor your information, Temasek Hotel is located just a stone's throw away from the famous Portuguese Settlement. In fact, when you are en route to the Christmas Town of Malaysia, you will surely not miss this majestic hotel, standing astutely on your right. Honestly this is not the first time I have been to this hotel, however it is my very first time enjoying their Ramadan Buffet dinner. OMG~I must say that I was really, really impressed after sampling their morsels of mouth-watering dishes. I am positive you will feel the same as well.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNostalgia Sentuhan Desa: Just look at the prices\n\n\n\n\nThemed as \"Nostalgia Sentuhan Desa\" or loosely translated to \"Village Nostalgic Touch\", this Ramadan Buffet will surely rewind your tape and bring you back in time to enjoy food that will remind you of the good old days. Surely a lot of my Malay friends will agree with me the moment they lay their eyes on those fresh \"ulam\" aka raw vegetables that are usually eaten together with our must have staple rice, right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChicken Briyani Rice-My favourite starter for this Ramadan Buffet\n\n\n\n\nSpearheaded by the Executive Chef with 30 years of experience, Mr. Rusli Shuib oversees all the culinary activities which are \"cooking\" in the open kitchen of the dining area. Rest assured that all the served food and beverages are of course Halal. Interestingly the menu will be changed every day on a rotation basis for your indulgence, so that diners can enjoy different variety of cuisines every single day during the Ramadan month. So you can come over to Temasek Hotel to \"buka puasa\" every evening. LOL :D Ouh~Did I mention that, the hotel also provides a surau for you to perform your prayers? Talking about courtesy right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Recommended: Stir-fried chili cockle petai!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready\u00a0 for your gastronomy journey, to dive into the melting pot of the cheapest Ramadan Buffet in Melaka? For curtain raiser or appetizer, I went straight to grab my plate of rice. You can either choose plain white rice, rice with raw vegetables or like me-I opted for the chicken briyani rice. Frankly speaking, their chicken briyani rice was really toothsome to say the least. Every grain was\u00a0 so perfectly cooked and flavorful that it melted in my mouth and tasted so savoury. Maybe I was hungry or maybe the aroma and the sight of the dishes here made me even hungrier. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFried Pepper Fish\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSalad for health conscious diner.\u00a0\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMixed vegetables with shitake\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nRice with ulam\n\n\n\n\n\nMy beloved wifey making her move. :D\n\n\n\n\nBesides our usual indispensable rice, the other starters include [most will be in Malaysian Language for convenience purposes]: \"Ayam Rebus Batang Keladi\", \"Masak Lemak Tetel & Rebung, Stir-fried Cockles with Petai, Fried Pepper Fish, Gulai Perut Lembu & Nangka Muda and Mixed vegetables with shitake mushrooms. Of all the entrees, yours truly me personally love the Stir-fried Cockles with Petai which I thought was tantalizingly spicy and inviting. Adding it to my rice added so much layer and texture to my meal, which set the course for me to enjoy more delectable food.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold: Kambing Golek (Roasted Mutton)\n\n\n\n\nAfter I had whetted my appetite with the starters, I grabbed my plates and wondered towards all the stalls where the main courses were waiting for me. I was SHOCKED to know that they even served Roasted Mutton (Kambing Golek)! WHAT? Yupe~you didn't read this wrongly. For only\u00a0 RM29.90 you get to enjoy limitless amount of freshly roasted mutton.\u00a0 The sight of chef roasting the crispy, golden brown lamb right before my eyes really made me drool. I had a few serving of it of course.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHighlight of the buffet: Tender, succulent roasted lamb\n\n\n\n\n\nWanna have a bite?\n\n\n\n\nThe sliced roasted lamb or \"Kambing Golek\" was really, really lusciously ambrosial-so succulent, tender and juicy! I literally closed my eyes when I spooned these slices of divine lamb meat into my gaping mouth. Oh my...my taste buds were dancing and my tongue was wagging, I had a mouthgasmic experience for sure! The mushroom soup that was poured onto of the roasted lamb totally added a new layer of composition, to enhance the taste (and experience) even further. Finger-licking good! *thumbs up* :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnother crowd's favourite-Banana leaf grilled fish with sambal\n\n\n\n\nOf course the Roasted Lamb was not the only highlight which stole my heart on that day. The banana leaf grilled fish stuffed with \"sambal\" (chili paste) was in a league of its own as well.\u00a0I could smell these dainty fish from afar thanks to the sweet-scented burning sensation which was permeating the air and the aroma that was exuded by the combination of fresh fish meat and fragrant banana leaf. After I had unwrapped my fish (like a gift), I walloped them with my second or maybe third plate of rice. Goodness gracious~I cannot stop eating on that day.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExotic deep-fried quail\n\n\n\n\nAnother worthy mention on the menu was the exotic deep-fried quail (burung puyuh). Exotic because I had never ever eaten any quail for my entire life until that very fateful day. \"How would it taste like? Would it be more delicious than chickens?\" Those were the questions that were holding me back. Nonetheless I steeled myself and grabbed a few of them back to my table. With trepidation *dub dub! dub dub!* I sank my teeth into the flesh of those crispy, caramel-coloured quail...my eyes opened wide in disbelief...the deep-fried quail tasted damn delicious! Why had not I eaten such delightful dish before?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThey also served fried banana. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWhich \"colour\" do you wanna drink sir?\n\n\n\n\n\nI prefer coffee. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nMore for you to feast\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMee Soto was really flavourful as well. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJust look at it *drooling*\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0My son loved the mee soto\n\n\n\n\n\nRight Jordan boy? :)\n\n\n\n\nYours truly me was a bit full at this point but heck~I was not going to let my slightly bloated stomach stop me from enjoying all the other dishes right? No way and I soldiered on with my plate and fork; Marching towards the other side of the dining hall. There they were, waiting for me gloriously on the plates and bowls *quipped*. There were the must-have Mee Soto, Mango Kerabu, and cucur just to name a few for you to enjoy. Besides, you can also enjoy a plate or two of on-demand Char Kueh Teow.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe executive chef was cooking char kueh teow for us!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n30 years of culinary skills!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHere you go~one plate of Char Kueh Teow\n\n\n\n\nIf you are still not done at this point like me, you could slowly sample those colourful desserts that will not only delight you visually but will also sweeten your palate, putting a smile on your face. Of course no Ramadan Buffet will be complete without a bowl of delightfully shaved ice, sprinkled with an assortment of beans and condiments as well as syrups of different colours. Then only you could say that you had a feast for your Ramadan Buffet~BUUUUuuuurpppp.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTaste all sorts of kuih (delicacies)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLusciously smooth pudding. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's dig in!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThis was just part of what I had\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl enjoyed her buffet dinner as well. :)\n\n\n\n\nAs usual, yours truly me needed a few cups of coffee to help me wind down and digest all the wonderful food that I had wolfed down earlier. Ha :D So all in all, I will highly recommend you to try the Ramadan Buffet Dinner a Temasek Hotel. Besides being the cheapest, it boasts a plethora of food that is fit for a king or well Sultan! By the way, there will be lucky draw every week and FREE parking is provided. If you are interested, do make your reservations so that you will not miss out.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDon't forget to get a bowl of ABC (Ais Batu Kacang) aka Shaved Ice with Beans\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWanna have a spoon?\n\n\n\n\n\nGotta make sure we enjoy ourselves to the MAX!\n\n\n\n\n\nRight Jasmine girl? :)\n\n\n\n\n\nOf course nothing beats coffee.

So after our visit to Midvalley the other day; after we had done eating lunch at Hong Kong Sheng Kee Dessert and after we had climbed the rainbow walls, my wife suggested that we patronize this legendary night market to sample their scrumptious offerings of dinner meals, desserts, snacks and drinks.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet the food hunt begin!\n\n\n\n\nWe have planned for this trip for quite some time mostly because it is only open on Wednesday. It was a bit difficult for us to schedule our food adventure because our two babies need to attend school, so we could only go there during the holidays. Here is another reminder for those who want to pay this \"pasar malam\" a visit. GO EARLY! It is claimed that parking would be extremely impossible if you are late. Hence we went there relatively early, arriving around 6p.m. I believe. And instead of parking our car on the same side of the night market, we actually parked at the opposite side and took a pedestrian bridge later to get to our destination.\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can choose what you want to add to your nasi lemak. :)\n\n\nThe moment we were IN the night market, I think we were a bit overwhelmed and of course excited. Overwhelmed, as there were really a lot of people buying food, beverages, desserts, clothes, toys and well...a lot was going on. Honestly I was so immersed in the ambiance and my curiosity took control of me. I kept peering around, trying to take in what I see right before my eyes. The whole place was bustling with activities with life and noise, which is really a pleasant sight. I was so absorbed that I didn't even bother to take out my smartphone to capture photos...that explains why you are not going to see a lot of photos in this post. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nCola Chicken~finally we meet.\n\n\nOne of the delicacies that I really wanted to try out was the Coca-Cola Chicken. Basically you will have your usual carbonated, fizzy beverage in the cup while the cover will be filled with crispy popcorn chicken. So every time I had popped those little chunks of chicken into my gaping mouth, I would sip my Coca-cola~DAYUM! This combination was really heavenly. You should try it if you love Coca-cola and fried food. LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFirst, empty those coke bottles\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Then throw in some popcorn~chicken popcorn to be precise\n\n\n\n\n\nTa~da! My Coca-cola Chicken is ready to be savoured\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nObviously I need to wrestle it over from my daughter. LOL :D\n\n\nThere were literally hundreds of stalls here selling all kinds of imaginable food. The problem is...you will have to find a table and vacant seats to enjoy your food which might be a real challenge. So my wife and I knew that it was mission impossible and decided to buy our food and head back to our hotel to enjoy our dinner instead. After we were done with sightseeing, we started to scout for our potential meals for dinner. There were a lot to choose from but we needed to pick those which can be stomached by our babies as well.\n\n\n\n\nCan you spot Stephen Chow?\n\n\n\n\n\nShark Fin soup anyone?\n\n\n\n\n\nGlass noodle is using to replace shark fin\n\n\nWe bought two packets of nasi lemak from a Malay stall was were really flavourful; Each grain of the fragrant rice was perfectly coated with coconut milk and the \"sambal\" was sinfully scrumptious. We also bought Stephen Chow's juicy explosive meat balls. They were really toothsome and I guess knowing that the God of Cookery himself gave his nod of approval meant that they were good right? LOL :D We also had a bowl of shark fin soup. Don't worry, no sharks were harmed in any way here. The shredded \"shark fin\" was actually glass noodle and broth really tasted like the real thing. I must applaud the hawker for whipping out such delightful food!\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold the black stinky tofu!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nAdding the secret soup to the stinky tofu\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nGosh~I am feeling hungry already.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at how many he had to prepare.\n\nThis goes to show that stinky black tofu is really a fan's favorite\n\n\nNow the highlight of our food trail was the inviting Black Stinky Tofu which was so different from all the other stinky ones that I have eaten before. Even my wife commended on these black cubic wonders. It was not just about the deep fried tofu, but the other ingredients added into the slightly spicy but tantalizing soup which combined so lusciously well with the tofu! When you sink your teeth into these tofu which had absorbed the soup...your taste buds will be screaming in joy for sure. That was what yours truly me felt-mouthgasm!\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at our glorious food bought from Taman Connaught Pasar\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLove the anchovies\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nNothing beats enjoying scrumptious dinner with your family. Ha :D\n\n\nWe brought our food back and enjoyed it in our hotel room, on the bed. Yupe~our hotel was just a stone's throw away from the night market. We also bought a few other delicacies such as dumplings, red bean cake, tortoise cake, crispy shao rou, tear drop cake/dessert and even a slice of tiramisu cake. So you can say that we really had a feast that evening. Nothing beats food indulgence...Buurrppp....I think I had too much but yeah eat now\u00a0then, repent later.

On the first day of Chinese New Year, some who opt not to cook will find it difficult to search for a Chinese restaurant which is still open for business. If you happen to be in Malacca and is looking for delicious family reunion dinner on the 1st of day of Chinese New Year, do head over to Wellen Restaurant \u5a01\u9f99\u8336\u9910\u5ba4 in Cheng. My family has patronized this restaurant for the past 3 years and I personally recommend the food served here.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThey even set up extra tents to accommodate more customers.\n\n\n\n\nUnlike some Chinese restaurants which rely heavily on foreign workers to cook and serve their food, all the workers in this Wellen Restaurant are actually family members. Having said so, rest assured that the quality, authenticity and hygiene of the food will be much, much better than other Chinese restaurants. Then again, a lot of Chinese restaurants are closed during the first second or third day of Chinese New Year.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy beloved wifey and her mini. :D\n\n\n\n\nAnother good thing about this restaurant is that you can book or make reservation for your dinner a few days before your actual patronage. We called them up one week earlier and they took down our orders word-by-word. In other words, we do not need to reorder anything when we visit the restaurant. The advantage of calling in earlier is that they will prepare the ingredients that will be needed for your dishes beforehand. So when you arrive at the restaurant, with there mere mention of your name, food will be served in no time.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur first dish-spicy curry fish\n\n\n\n\nWhen we arrived at the restaurant, a few other families were already waiting patiently for their dinner. We informed the waitress that we had placed our order earlier, she nodded and off she left to attend to other customers. So we began to chit chat, thinking that it would take some time before we could start enjoying our dinner. After all there were so many tables with empty plates. Surprisingly, in around 5 minutes' time our first dish arrived on out table. It was our spicy curry fish. Talking about speed huh! Perhaps that is the benefit of booking earlier?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpinach\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOmelette\n\n\n\n\nI thought the spicy curry fish was really ambrosial. It was not too spicy nor was it too creamy for our liking; Meaning that not too much coconut milk was added to prepare the dish. The fish fillet was succulent and the curry was really rich in flavour and not to mention very appetizing too. Thanks to this dish, we could shovel spoons or rice into our gaping mouths quite quickly. The next dish was kung pao chicken. Everything in this dish was impeccably cooked. The chicken cubes were tender while the mixture of dried chili, onions and the different sauces had truly made our mouth watered.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMixed vegetables tofu soup\n\n\n\n\nWe also had our usual stir-fried spinach with garlic, omelette and mixed vegetables tofu soup. The spinach was flawlessly cooked as the whole dish was very soft and flavourful thanks to the addition of garlic. The omelette, though looked relatively normal was sizzled to perfection as the golden brown texture of the fragrant egg wrapped the other well-cooked ingredients inside of it. I like the mixed vegetables tofu soup as well. The broth was not too watery and the texture was really ideal to water down our throat-al dante!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold: salted egg fried calamari\n\n\n\n\nLast but not least, the star of our reunion dinner was the delectable salted egg fried calamari. OMG! This dish totally stole the limelight thanks to its gratifying burst of rich flavours. The golden salted egg coating the calamari really made it more savory. It was perfectly cooked as you will notice how crispy it was the moment you sink your teeth into these dainty \"golden rings\"; on the inside the calamari was very luscious as it was juicy and scrumptious. The added curry leaves and chopped chili totally elevated the taste of the whole dish. Fingers licking good I would say!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrandpa with Jordan boy\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nGrandpa with Jasmine girl\n\n\n\n\nAll in all, we ordered 6 different dishes for our reunion dinner and all of them cost only RM113.00\u00a0 (US$28) which was really, really cheap right? Though it was the first day of Chinese New Year and lots of other restaurants were not serving any food, the owner of Wellen Restaurant decided to charge us the normal price rate. Some other restaurants would greedily hike their prices but not this restaurant. So if you are in Malacca (Cheng area) and is wondering what to eat for dinner (especially during Chinese New Year), I would highly recommend you to give Wellen Restaurant \u5a01\u9f99\u8336\u9910\u5ba4 a try. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am sure everyone had a feast. :D\n\n\n\n\nWellen Restaurant \u5a01\u9f99\u8336\u9910\u5ba4\nAddress: 9, Jalan Bertam Jaya 9B, Taman Bertam Jaya, 76450 Melaka.\nOperating Hour: 5p.m. - 11p.m. Daily (Closes every Tuesday & Sunday)\nContact: 016-324 9059\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"} {"title": "Enjoy Halal Organic Food at Ku Cha Be \u53e4\u65e9\u5473 [PICS]", "body": "\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll this while I have always felt that vegetarian food is not palatable let alone being branded as\u00a0 delicious. When the word \"organic\" comes to my mind, immediately I will think about raw vegetables which are far form being scrumptious. That was before I discovered this hidden food haven in Melaka; Introducing\u00a0Ku Cha Be (\u53e4\u65e9\u5473) which serves unbelievably flavourful organic food that will make you drool for more. The best part is, the food served here is Halal and vegetarian-friendly. Of course, non-vegetarian like me really enjoyed it as well.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Unmistakable rustic charm\n\n\n\n\n\nOk~let's go in to makan already.\n\n\n\n\n\nSituated near the city centre, Ku Cha Be offers a different take to food preparation and presentation. The moment you arrived at the doorstep of the restaurant, you will instantaneously know that you have come to the right place. Right before your eyes are wooden panels of windows which exudes so much rustic charm to it. The two little rattan stools fit just perfectly amidst the homey setting. It makes me feel like I have returned to my ancestral home.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Ku Cha Be\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe interior does exude that classic feel to it\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI thought the marble table and wooden chairs really complement each other\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nNostalgic touches-tiffins, sewing machines, metal biscuit boxes and radio just to name a few.\n\n\n\nInside the restaurant, you will be greeted by their friendly waiters who will usher you and help you with your orders. I really like the interior as it is simple and classical. The presence of those white ethereal marble tables being dotted by the equally traditional timbered chairs make the whole ambiance very cozy. The sight of old sewing machine, pastel tiffins, antique typewriter really breathe life into the whole place-giving it that olden days nostalgia. It feels like you actually travel back in time when you dine in here. Heck! Even the round hickory switches from my grandparents' era are making a cameo here.\n\n\n\n\n\nMore decorations: Even the switches are old school.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's order our food: Self-service\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe menu looks really beautiful as well.\n\n\n\nAfter we were done mesmerizing the decorations, we started to browse through the menu to look at what we could savour for our lunch. My wife ordered the Hakka Lei Cha while I opted for Hakka Porridge as my throat felt a little parched on that day; Our Jordan boy chose his usual Wan Tan Mee and our flamboyant Jasmine girl preferred something more spicy-Nasi Lemak. Obviously all four of us got to pick our very own comfort food to fill our growling stomachs. Who said we cannot enjoy everything under the same roof? Ouh yeah~we also ordered their Red Bean Soup for our after-meal dessert.\u00a0 :)\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat we have ordered. :)\n\n\n\nThe first dish to land on our table was my Hakka Porridge. I was pleasantly surprised as my food was hidden inside the bamboo steamer that we would usually see in a dim sum restaurant. Once the lid was lifted, the bowl of brown-rice porridge was adorably circled by 7 little dishes ranging from salted bean curd, long bean, soft-succulent black fungus, ground nuts, chopped vegetables, crispy dumpling and another vegetable dish that I could not distinguished. When I mixed everything into the porridge and tried a spoon of it...BAM! Every spoon was bursting of toothsome flavours which made me yearn for more.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0My Hakka Porridge\n\n\n\n\n\nThe steaming basket really made the whole dish more exquisite\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n7 different little dishes to mix with my brown rice porridge\n\n\n\nUp next was my wife's Hakka Lei Cha which looked a little bit like yee sang to me. Ha :D Being served on a bamboo tray, the brown rice was the center of the attractions as it was being embraced by a mixture of vegetables, cabbage, groundnuts, sesame seeds, bean curd, puffed rice, spring onions and even carrots. Talk about green food huh! Before we continue: what does Lei Cha means? Literally it translates to \"crushed\" or \"pounded\" tea. So the emerald-coloured tea in the teapot next to the aforementioned ingredients is actually made from various ingredients ground to perfection for you to enjoy. After sampling the Lei Cha, I believe the ingredients include organic wulong tea, mint, basil and coriander. The combination of the side dishes and Lei Cha made an amazingly toothsome and nutritious meal. My wife really enjoyed it a lot. Yummy!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHakka Lei Cha at its best\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey really enjoyed her nutrition-packed Lei Cha! :)\n\n\n\nJordan boy's Wan Tan Mee was not a let down as well as he told me that it tasted really titillating. The noodle which was made from unbleached flour, was really springy and well-seasoned. He enjoyed the fried, crispy dumpling as well. I was really impressed to see so many different ingredients being stuffed into the dumpling. He enjoyed his so much that he even reached out for my dumpling. Greedy boy! :p\n\n\n\n\n\nOrganic Wan Tan Mee is served\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nTime to eat!\n\n\n\n\n\nThe best dish today-Nasi Lemak!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe aromatic brown rice, the lemon grass tempeh and the toothsome chili!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nCan daddy eat yours? :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBoth of them enjoyed their food a lot.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBean curd with the ever delectable parsley!\n\n\n\nAs for my daughter, she just couldn't stop spooning her soft tasty brown rice with coconut milk into her little mouth. Honestly...the aromatic santan (coconut milk) of the rice was so fragrant that I could not help but to sample a few spoons myself. The spinach was flawlessly cooked so it was tender while the cucumber was so fresh that I had a few myself (usually I don't eat these cucumber slices). Now...I highly recommend the Tempeh Ground Nut which was seasoned with lemon grass! OMG~it was not only crispy but also really, really, really damn gratifying! Wait...I'm not done...even the home-made chili paste totally blew my mind as it had just the right balance of spiciness and herbaceous to it that made me feel so insatiable!\n\n\n\n\n\nRed Bean Soup\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey enjoying the dessert.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDid we enjoy ourselves? You bet. :)\n\n\n\nOur dessert appeared last and it was just the perfect final course for us to wind down. The Red Bean Soup ticked all the boxes as it was dainty and light. The combination of red bean, black glutinous rice, pandan, tangerine peel, ginger and gula Melaka really makes for an invigoratingly refreshing tonic (or dessert). The bill came at RM51 which was reasonably cheap for the glorious food and zen setting. So will we return to dine in Ku Cha Be again? You bet. There are so many other dishes that I would try such as their Tomyam Goong, Lime Lime Special and Cincai! If you are in Malacca, do drop by this Halal-certified restaurant which serves organic food that is suitable for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike.\n\n\n\n\n\nCINCAI~Seriously? So it means the chef will dish out anything?

We embarked on our journey to Tangkak at around 5p.m. in the evening as yours truly me had to work on Saturday (duh!). Our trip was really fast as we arrived at our destination in 45 minutes. We knocked on our aunts' doors and had a good chit chat after exchanging the usual pleasantries. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Usually this\u00a0 restaurant will be full to hold wedding banquet\n\n\n\nAfter catching up with each other for a while, we could see that the sun was giving a languid smile in the distant horizon. By then our stomachs were rumbling and it was time for dinner. We headed towards Tong Hai Restaurant (\u4e1c\u6d77\u51b7\u6c14\u9152\u5e97) which was one of the best Chinese restaurants in Tangkak. Usually the eatery will be brimming with people either by faithful patrons or there would be wedding banquet. We were lucky that it was not one of those days.\n\n\n\n\n\nSpacious restaurant with really comfortable ambiance\n\n\n\nThe restaurant can serve up to 300 people at the same time and it really feels comfortable to dine in this luxurious setup. The place was really spotless and the whole ambiance was so cozy thanks to the Chinese New Year songs that were being played in the background. With the menus in our hands, my brother and I were still clueless as to what we should be ordering. In the end, we passed the buck to our aunt who is a regular customer of the restaurant. In no time, she ordered 7 different dishes for us without even looking at the menu. SEE! Regular! :p\n\n\n\n\n\nCurtain raiser-Kangkung\n\n\n\nIn less than 5 minutes, our first dish-stir fried Kangkung, landed on our table. It was lusciously cooked as both the stems and leaves are soft and tender. The aromatic whiff of stir fried garlic really elevated our appetite. Though we requested for the dish to be in small serving, the portion was just nice and of course we still had 6 more dishes being lined up for us.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSizzling Japanese Tofu with egg and minced meat\n\n\n\n\n\nSweet & Sour Pork\n\n\n\nUp next was the sizzling Japanese Tofu with egg and minced meat. We really liked the combination as it was really, really flavourful. Of course the chopped spring onion did help to unlock the fragrance for the whole dish. Then we had the normal-looking sweet and sour pork which really surprised our taste buds. Looks can be deceiving they say and that was exactly what I felt the moment I sink my fangs into these tender, succulent pork. Every bite was so toothsome and the pineapple cubes added that zesty tinge to the dish.\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE BEST: Mongolian Chicken-I am sure Genghis Khan will agree with me\n\n\n\n\n\nBok Choy\n\n\n\nAnother highlight of our dinner was the Mongolian Chicken dish. This dish is a personal favourite of mine as I love its texture and bursting flavours. Shovel a spoonful of it into your mouth and you will immediately be tantalized by the savory salty sweet and spicy sauce which wrapped the boneless chicken strips. The peppery combo of this dish ticked all the boxes in my book. The next dish was another leafy affair which I did not touch at all. Yupe~I gave the stir fried Bok Choy a miss. They told me it was very crispy. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHong Kong-styled steamed grouper\n\n\n\n\n\nVegetables curry\n\n\n\nBy then, our most expensive dish finally swam onto our table, being drenched with soy sauce. Behold the Hong Kong-styled steamed grouper which turned out to be quite a delectable dish. The fish was so soft and tender as it was perfectly cooked. I could actually feel the white soft meat slowly melting in my mouth. Perhaps my favourite ambrosial parsley did help a lot in my judgement as well. Last but not least was the mouthwatering curry vegetables. Yupe! Just vegetables; Lots of vegetables ranging from cabbage, eggplant, lady's finger and cauliflower just to name a few. And ouh yeah of course there were curry leaves as well. The curry was tangy but not too spicy. In fact all the oldies enjoyed this dish a lot.\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's makan!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOne for our photo book\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYoung and old got together for our reunion dinner. :)\n\n\n\nWe really had a great time dining together as a family in this wonderful restaurant.

Last month I blogged about Levain Boulangerie in KL, so it will make perfect sense for me to talk about this newly opened bakery-patisserie which is located right in my very own backyard.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Chef K Pastry\n\n\n\nThough it has only opened its doors for one month, it has garnered quite a lot of following and fans thanks to its scrumptious bread and delectable pastries. In fact, yours truly me had visited this bakery on DAY ONE itself. Yupe! Thanks to my curiosity, I went scouting to see if what is being offered is better than another famous bakery which is just a stone's throw away.

Of course I am not an expert but I know you will never get enough of what to eat as there are simply too many choices which is good (and necessary). Another reason why I think Chef K Pastry is so inviting is because of its presentation and layout. In other words, you feel that the bread and pastries are not merely food but rather a piece of art that you get to savour and enjoy; something that you appreciate every time you sink your teeth into those soft, heavenly-scented buns.

Actually we did have some hard time trying to decide what to eat as we preferred not to indulge in any fast food for lunch. After wandering around while doing some sightseeing, we finally arrived at our destination to enjoy our lunch. So we opted to try\u00a0Hong Kong Sheng Kee Dessert\u00a0which looked quite oriental and family friendly.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJust like in Hong Kong\n\n\n\n\n\nMe and my beautiful wifey. :D\n\n\n\n\nNot wanting to eat any overly-fried food, my wifey decided that we should try to dine in this Hong Kong-styled restaurant. I had never seen this eatery when I last visited Midvalley the year before, I guess it must have been a newly opened one. We were swiftly ushered to our table and were shown the menus to order our food. The decorations were simple but yet it sufficiently brought out that Hong Kong-ness to the ambiance. The wallpapers helped a lot as well. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur 2 rascals after waiting for like...1 minute...\n\n\n\n\nWe were quite hungry by then, the kids especially after walking for a few hours in the mall. Thankfully, food was prepared and served in no time. First to made it onto our table was the huge bowl of Hong Kong Char Siew Noodle (or we call it Wan Tan Mee), which is my son's favourite. The noodles were perfectly cooked (and cooled) and the texture was smooth and springy. The stewed meat was a joy to eat as well as it was nicely cooked without any hint of being \"hard\" of chewy. The dumplings were huge and the fillings were really, really generous; Not to mention delicious as well. Both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl really enjoyed this lunch of theirs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWan tan mee\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy and his favourite food!\n\n\n\n\nYours truly me ordered the Hong Kong Pork Chop Rice. I personally love how fragrant my rice was. The crispy and tender pork chop made the whole dish truly a joy to savour. Coupled with the gravy, everything became finger licking good for me. As for my missus, she placed on order for braised pork belly with mui choi rice. The braised meat was really tender and succulent, making every bite so scrumptious. Then again, if you ask me I felt that the mui choi was really the highlight. It made the whole dish more flavourful.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHong Kong Pork Chop Rice\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBraised pork belly with mui choi rice\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey is enjoying her lunch\n\n\n\n\nBesides our main dishes, we also ordered mini Char Siew Pau to fill up any remaining gaps in our stomachs. Gotta make sure we are really full before we embark on our next journey. The pau were delightful and the portion (being mini) was just nice for us. Last but not least, we also tried their in-house Osmanthus Jelly which was made from chrysanthemum and (Goji) wolfberry. It was really, really pleasant to the taste buds and throat. Highly recommended as a dessert as it is really nourishing and cooling at the same time.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChar Siew Pau\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nChrysanthemum + wolfberry = healthy\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl enjoying her chrysanthemum jelly.\n\n\n\n\nIf you happen to me in Midvalley, and are wondering what you should be eating for lunch or dinner. Do give Hong Kong Sheng Kee Dessert a try. I highly recommend their food especially if you love Chinese food. Ouh yeah~their special homemade chili (sambal) was really, really, really amazing *2 thumbs up*. So don't forget to enjoy your fragrant white rice or springy noodles with the sambal! :)\n\n\n\nLG049 & 050, LG Floor, Mid Valley Mega Mall,\n\nLingkararan\u00a0 Syed Putra, Mid Valley City, 59200 Kuala Lumpur.\n\nOpening hours:\u00a0 11:00a.m. to 10:00p.m. daily.\n\n\n\n\n\n"} {"title": "Seafood at Portuguese Settlement", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nWhen you are in Malacca and are hunting for seafood to sample, ask any Malaccan and more often than not they will recommend the ones in Ujong Pasir-Portuguese Settlement. In fact, if you ask me, my answer will be the same. The laid-back village is not only famous for its stunning Christmas decorations during the month of December, it is synonymous with glorious spread of seafood for tourists who flock to Malacca. If you have not raised your fork and spoon here, it means you have not visited Malacca.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile waiting for our food to be served. :D\n\n\n\nSo before we enjoyed the marvelous Christmas decorations at the Portuguese village, my family and I made haste to the esplanade where the seafood restaurants are located. It was 6:30p.m. and by then the whole stretch of place was almost inundated by seafood lovers and tourists alike; Welcome to Portuguese Square where you can enjoy any imaginable fresh food that can be harvested from the ocean ranging from huge, succulent prawns to mouth-watering crabs\u3002 Heck! You can even enjoy the alien-looking horseshoe crab which bleeds green blood. Are you game to sink your teeth into them? Not us of course.\n\n\n\n\n\nOtak-otak! :)\n\n\n\n\n\nYou have to squeeze the lemon juice onto the spicy meat to \"diffuse\" the stings!\n\n\n\nThe moment you arrived at the Portuguese Square, you will be greeted by a huge statue of Jesus. After a two-minute walk towards the beach, you will be ushered by different waiters to patronize their difference restaurants. In other words, they will be swarming you, \"pestering\" you to follow them to their respective joint to dine in. Don't worry you will get used to it. So which seafood stall/restaurant is the best in Portuguese Square? IMHO, I would suggest the 1st, the 7th and the 8th restaurant. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOmelette\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Arrghhh....how could I not snap this perfectly? My favourite spicy kang kung...looked so horrible.\n\n\n\n\n\nSteamed fish\n\n\n\n\n\nPerfectly cooked fried chicken!\n\n\n\n\n\nRojak as our \"dessert\"\n\n\n\nWe got ourselves seated at our usual restaurant-the first one. Very swiftly, the waiter will start to pen down what you desire to feast. You can also ask for recommendations. After placing our orders, we...waited for around 15 minutes, which was relatively fast and voila! Our dinner was served. First dish to land on our table was the extremely spicy otak-otak (fish meat mashed with prawn). It was so darn spicy that my lips and taste buds could barely take have another contact! Still my mind commanded my hand to shovel the fiery peppery morsel into my gaping mouth. OMG~Dayum! Perhaps it might not be suitable for everyone. But it was just nice for me. You just need to have plenty of water by your side. LOL\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold... *drooling* our salted, butter crab!\n\n\n\nThen we had the usual dish of fried omelette with onion, steamed fish, spicy kang kung (another favourite of mine), mixed vegetables (YUCK!), fried chickens (so these chickens can swim?) and of course the highlight of the our dinner was the flavourful salted egg, buttery crab! I had a lot of servings of rice thanks to the chili. Of course you can order fried calamari and huge succulent prawns to chow down. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's dig in\n\n\n\nThe whole feast was so enjoyable and relaxing at the same time. I must admit that my family loves dining here not only because of the scrumptious seafood, but also due to the amazingly beautiful atmosphere. The sight of children playing around the esplanade really breathe live into the whole place, making it so friendly and comfortable. If you arrive at the right time you could even enjoy sunset while spooning those juicy prawns into your drooling mouth.\n\n\n\n\n\nWalking around the jetty and esplanade after our dinner\n\n\n\nAs the moon shyly peeped out from behind the clouds, you can enjoy the breathtaking night scene around the Portuguese Square. There was actually a jetty here for you to have a stroll, you know...to digest all those crustaceans which had made its way into your tummy. The reflections of neon lights on the water made the whole place so picturesque. Weirdly, I could feel a sense of calmness as we slowly walked around, enjoying the cozy ambiance.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe hotel near the beach\n\n\n\nOnce we were done admiring the beautiful night scenes, we made our way to our car. Just beside the Portuguese Square, there will be a few hawker stalls selling more snacks for you to enjoy. They must have known that we were hungry after strolling around the jetty and esplanade. Ha :D That day, there was even a game stall for us to throw darts to poke some balloons. Both my children were jumping up and down, pleading us to let them have a go-which we did. They steeled themselves, they stared at those colourful balloons as they aimed and their thew those sharp, pointy darts...and they missed. LOL But they had fun trying.\n\n\n\n\n\nAim...aim...steady...and...\n\n\n\nAfter that we continued to visit those houses which were beautifully decorated with neon lights, Santas, Angels, reindeer and Mr. Frosty. Tantalizing seafood dinner and stunning Christmas decorations for the day. What more can we ask right? All in all, we really had a great time. Will surely be visiting Portuguese Settlement again next year for seafood and Christmas. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nBeautiful, isn't it?\n\n\n\nAddress: Jalan Daranjo, Perkampungan Portugus, 75050 Melaka.\n\nOpening Time: Daily (5 p.m. till 12 p.m.)\n\n\n\n\n\n"} {"title": "Breakfast at Levain Boulangerie & Patisserie [PICS]", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nIf you\u00a0 are in KL and are looking for a very appetizing breakfast amidst an utterly amazing backdrop, head over to\u00a0Levain Boulangerie & Patisserie and KL. Located along the quiescent street of Jalan Delima, you will easily spot the quaint French bakery-cafe the moment you lay your eyes on it. When I first stumble upon this bakery years ago, I immediately fell in love with it. Its colonial-influenced architecture and landscape make you feel like you are actually on vacation in a foreign country.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Levain Boulangerie & Patisserie\n\n\n\n\nIt is so spacious and cozy\n\n\n\n\nPart of the air-conditioned dining hall.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nFor those who prefer al fresco, there is a lovely lane for you to enjoy your breads.\n\n\n\n\nThis was only the third time I have visited this rustic-looking bakery when my brother introduced it to me years ago. Actually it is a luxury for my family and I to enjoy our breakfast here. To be honest, from price point view, it is relatively more expensive than the premium offering in Malacca. Then again, for me to visit this patisserie again and again means it justifies the price tag that comes with it. In fact, my wife and kids really enjoyed our food here.\n\n\n\n\n\nHere she comes...\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl with some of the breads that we had purchased.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nChicken mushroom\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSweet cornflakes\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nRed beans paste\n\n\nIf you are outside bakery, you will notice the conspicuous wordings \"stone oven\" in front of the stony colonial building. Yep! There is a stone oven in Levain which is used to bake all the breads and pastries all day to perfection. Since a traditional stone oven is used instead of electronic substitutes, you will get to enjoy bread and pastries which exude special aroma and texture. No wonder, our family is hooked to this bakery and years for more. :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy and his carefully picked breakfast. :D\n\n\n\n\nGet ready to be stuffed!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYupe!

So we had the whole place to ourselves that morning. Slowly, we browsed through the myriads of breads, cakes, and desserts right in front of our eyes. To be honest, you would be spoiled for choices. The truth is...we had a hard time deciding what to devour for our first feast of the day. We wish we could take a few more but alas...the capacity of our stomachs is rather limited. So yeah...\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy and his antics\n\n\n\n\nDon't move!

The bakery is now bigger to accommodate more patrons. They have renovated the patisserie to have a bigger air-conditioned space for customers to savour their food in comfort. I personally love the backdrop and the ambiance of Levain. The colonial-styled decorations and furniture really add a lot of exquisite touch to the whole place. It is so endearing and cozy which makes one feel so at ease while indulging those scrumptious bread and pastries.

We had a whale of time and of course we exhausted a lot of energy to do something alien to us. Hence we needed lots of energy in the form of food. Ha \ud83d\ude04 So before we ice skated on the rink, we actually had dinner at Mee Tarik Warisan Asli on the first floor. Let's go makan!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's see what we can eat at Mee Tarik Warisan Asli\n\n\n\nThis Mee Tarik Warisan Asli is a relatively new restaurant in Mahkota Parade and they serve what appear to be Chinese cuisines that are Halal. Then again the place that I usually have mee tarik or Ramen is in Japanese Restaurants. Mee Tarik is actually the direct translation of Ramen which means hand-pulled noodles. So yours truly me was really elated to sample their authentic ramen which originated from China.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Golden Curry Mee Tarik\n\n\nAfter scrutinizing the menu for some time, we finally placed our orders. I tried their Golden Curry Mee Tarik while my wife had fried mee tarik with kam heong. As for our two little babies, they had egg fried rice. We even added dried dumpling for a more filling dinner. \ud83d\ude0b The whole restaurant is really quite big, capable of housing 100 dinners at one time.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBoth my wife and I enjoyed it a lot thanks to the springy noodles. :)\n\n\nFirst to land on our table was the appetizing spicy Golden Curry Mee Tarik which I thought was really flavourful. The curry was thick and very aromatic with a whiff of lemon grass. The hand-pulled noodles were really springy and delectable. I must praise the Mee Tarik Warisan Asli's noodles for their texture which were just nice-al Dante.\n\n\n\n\n\nFried Mee Tarik with kam heong\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFried Rice with egg-simple but delicious\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBoth Jordan and Jasmine enjoyed it.\n\n\nMy wife's fried mee tarik with kam heong felt like those you get to savour at your favourite Chinese hawker stalls; my wife enjoyed the well marinated chicken chunks and sliced onions. The springy noodles made the difference though, making the whole dish more scrumptious. As for our little babies, their fried rice with eggs was really, really good. Though a bit pricey at RM9, I dare say that their plate of fried rice has gotta be one of the best I've tried in years. Every single grain is fried to perfection.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDried dumplings.\n\n\nLast but not least our final dish was the dumplings with their very own specialty chilli paste. The spicy chilli really brought out the best in the dumplings. In fact without the lip smacking chilli the dumplings would have tasted really normal.\n\n\n\nRefer to their menu to know what else you can eat at Mee Tarik Warisan Asli\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe best mee tarik in Malaysia? Maybe. :)\n\n\nAll in all we really had a satisfying dinner at Mee Tarik Warisan Asli. Our dinner only cost us around RM49 which I think is really affordable as the portions of your noodles and rice will be quite huge. If you happen to be in Mahkota Parade, you can give this ramen a try. \ud83d\ude1c\n"} {"title": "Bel Pasto Italian Restaurant At Desa Aman Puri-Serves The Best Tiramisu Cake", "body": "\nThe other day when I visited my beloved brother in Kuala Lumpur, he treated us to a fine luncheon at a well-known called Bel Pasto Italian Restaurant somewhere around Desa Aman Puri. Located strategically along with the main room, you can easily spot this maroon red restaurant from a distance. According to my brother, this place serves excellent and authentic Italian food at an unbelievably affordable price which is really rare in KL.\n\n\n\nBel Pasto Italian Restaurant At Desa Aman Puri\n\n\n\nBel Pasto-Italian Restaurant\n\n\n\n\nWe were lucky to find ourselves a table as this restaurant is usually brimming with customers who could not resist the flavourful, aromatic Italian cuisines. After scrutinizing the menu and placing our orders, we looked around to enjoy the settings and decor in the restaurant. Everything in Bel Pasto looked and felt Italian, right from the tables and chairs to the wallpapers used and the wooden finish for the doors and windows. Even the lighting added that unmistakable romantic Italian touch to the whole restaurant, allowing patrons to bask in a wonderful and inviting ambience while enjoying their meals.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAppetizer, creamy soup with fresh mushroom chunks.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nPerfectly done garlic bread.\n\n\n\n\n10 minutes later, our food was finally served and the first dish to made it to our table was *drumroll* the soup of the day-mushroom soup. The broth was really tantalizing with chunks of mushrooms delightfully scattered all over the soup. It was thick, creamy and yet smooth on the palate. If you dine in an Italian restaurant, what goes well with mushroom soup? Garlic bread of course. The Parmesan bread was sliced just at the right thickness, making it a pleasure to enjoy the crispiness of the Italian appetizer. Splattered with butter, some zesty cheese, a generous amount of garlic and of course a hint of black pepper gave the bread its luscious taste. Yum! Yum!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you like the mushroom soup Jasmine girl? :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\nGarlic bread and mushroom soup are the perfect combination.\n\n\n\n\nAfter sampling the morsels of crispy garlic bread and the scrumptious mushroom soup, our main course meals finally were finally served. It would not feel right to have our mini banquet without ordering something truly Italian right? So we ordered 2 pizzas for our luncheon that afternoon. The first was chicken pepperoni pizza and the latter was Hawaiian Chicken pizza with perky pineapple chunks. Both were equally toothsome, with savoury thin crust and titillating gooey cheese, peppered with fragrant oregano and basil. *drooling* :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy beloved wifey-My model for the day. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Hand-tossed pepperoni chicken pizza.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCrispy Hawaiian Chicken Pizza.\n\n\n\n\n\nWe took our own sweet time, slowly munching our pieces of cheesy pizzas while enjoying the Italian milieu in the little chic restaurant. As for my daddy, well...he preferred something not too Italian...something he was more comfortable with-chicken. So he placed an order for black pepper chicken with fries and fresh salad dressed with Thousand Island Sauce. Well, he seemed to be quite content with his tender chicken chop with black pepper sauce, no? :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou will never go wrong with black pepper chicken right dad? :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\nDaddy and my brother. :)\n\n\n\n\nObviously, he was digging it.\n\n\n\nHere comes the highlight of the day: Tiramisu Dessert Cake. Yupe! If you had patronized Bel Pasto before, you would have known how good their Tiramisu Dessert Cake is right, hands down! In fact, a lot come to Bel Pasto just to savour their famous Italian confection. I honestly believe the Tiramisu Cake is the best I have tried in my entire life. Our slice of coffee-flavoured dessert was layered with a mixture of sugar, cheese, cocoa, eggs and of course coffee. OMG! The moment you shovel it into your gaping, watery mouth, the divine tang of the tiramisu will immediately burst in your mouth, lathering every single taste bud on your tongue. Each piece of this gratifying dessert will only cost you RM8.90 which is really cheap. Ha :DBest Tiramisu Cake in KL\n\n\n\nAre you ready for the \"main course\"?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Behold the famous Tiramisu Dessert Cake\n\n\n\n\n\nOMG...look at the inviting layers of cake...\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMeticulously prepared.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Are you drooling already?\n\n\n\n\n\nEach piece is only RM8.90.\nYou can order 1KG of this special Bel Pasto Tiramisu cake at only RM44.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife loved it.\n\n\n\nI guess words alone will not suffice to describe how good the food was at Bel Pasto Italian Restaurant, especially the Tiramisu dessert cake. Of course, my photos do not do any justice as well. If you are near the Desa Aman Puri, do head over to this Latin restaurant to have your lunch or dinner (they operate at two different times) with family and friends. You will surely enjoy the casual and cosy setting and the great food of course.\n\n\nBel Pasto Italian Restaurant\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAddress:\n\n23A, 2, Jalan Desa 2/2, Desa Aman Puri, 52100 Kuala Lumpur, Selangor\n\n\n\nOperating Hours:\n\n11a.m.-3p.m. and 6p.m. -11p.m. Open every day except Tuesday.\n\n\n\nContact:\n\n011-1041 2110\n\n\n\n\n\nTwo thumbs up!

We bought a few mackerels and a huge lobster for us to cook later in the afternoon... OK...that didn't happen of course. And, certainly we did not fly all the way to New York to have seafood. However we did drive all the way to the Manhattan Fish Market in IOI City Mall, Putrajaya to enjoy our tantalizing luncheon to celebrate my wife's birthday.\u00a0It was an important day for my big baby indeed. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTell us what day is today?\n\n\n\n\nThis was perhaps the 5th time we have dined in The Manhattan Fish Market to sample morsels of scrumptious seafood. I first tasted how good it is like 8 years ago back in KLCC. Since then I have always tried to have a bite of this lip-smacking seafood from Manhattan whenever I can such as in MidValley. This goes to show how I approve of this restaurant. *thumbs up* I am glad that last year, The Manhattan Fish Market has finally realized that Malaccans are rich enough to enjoy our platters of fish and chips and give us our very own Fish Market from Manhattan right here in Mahkota Parade.

If I could have dined in Malacca, why would I take all the trouble to go to IOI City Mall in Putrajaya to eat a plate of Spaghetti in The Manhattan Fish Market over there? You will find out in one of my posts in the future. :p Like I have aforementioned, this meal was supposed to be my wife's birthday celebration...hence it had to be an awesome one at least in terms of portions. That was exactly what we did, by ordering a lot for us to feast on. :D\n\n\n\n\n\nMushroom soup as our appetizer.\n\n\nAltogether we ordered 4 different dishes plus one soup of the day to gratify our hunger pangs. The first dish to land on our table was my Mediterranean Baked Dory (RM24). The flavourful blend of herbs and spices really baked the dory fillet to perfection, making it succulent and oozing with spicy goodness. Mix this spiciness of the fish and the aromatic garlic herb rice and you will have luscious tingling sensation in your mouth. *drooling*\n\n\n\n\n\nMy delicious\u00a0Mediterranean Baked Dory\n\n\nThe next dish to be served was the mouth-watering Olio Shrimp (RM24) which was arguably the best pasta meal I have ever eaten in my entire life. The spaghetti was flawlessly cooked till it was 'al dante'-not too chewy and yet not overly mushy as well. Likewise Olio Shrimp would not be complete without these huge, succulent shrimp which tasted so fresh that I could not stop myself from having another...and another. Lastly a few dash of garlic and chili flakes totally complemented the spaghetti and shrimps, making this Olio Shrimp dish a fiery delight.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Unbelievably good Olio Shrimp!\n\n\n\n\n\nShe loves it. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI love her...I mean I love it too. :D\n\n\nAs for little Jordan and Jasmine, their taste buds were not fully accustomed to seafood yet. Therefore we needed a special order for them; One that they were familiar with...fries...egg and something cheesy. Both of them shared Fishy Chicky Bang Bang (RM25) which I thought sounded really hilarious. Bahahahaha :D Ok..back to the Bang Bang dish: Besides fries and egg, the main star for this dish was the heavenly match of dory and chicken, which sandwiched the irresistible cheddar cheese in the middle. Unfortunately there was some leftover which was green...of course. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nFishy Chicky Bang Bang-A cheesy delight inside out.\n\n\nLast but not least, our most \"gempak\" (awesome) dish to arrive last was the Grilled Flaming Lobster Platter. It made quite a grand entrance, forcing us to be fixated by the burning flames, dancing in sync to blaze the huge, juicy lobster *drooling* (RM152). The sweetness of the fresh lobster made me yearning for more while I sucked my juicy fingers (gosh! This sounded so wrong). Though I am not a big fan of mussels, the garlic herb helped me review my opinion of the clams. You can never go wrong with fried calamari and crispy fish fingers as my two kids had shown. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Here comes the highlight of our luncheon!\n\n\n\n\n\nBuurrnnnnnn!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you smeeelllll......\n\n\n\n\nLook at how the fire dances with the dead lobster! :D\n\nMy wife, Jordan, Jasmine and I had a unbelievable feast at The Manhattan Fish Market...one that we would not forget for a long time to come. Besides being so finger-licking good-Good, the food was of big portion and each of them was bursting with their own unique unmistakable flavours. Will we dine in The Manhattan Fish Market again? Definitely as it can be considered as the\u00a0 De Facto seafood restaurant of our choice. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Our\u00a0Grilled Flaming Lobster Platter *drooling*\n\n\n\n\n\nHappy Birthday my one and only wife. :p\n\nI love you~Muack \ud83d\ude18\n\n\nWe wish that each of us had another stomach on that day.

Ha :D Usually we will bring daddy to a cafe for dinner because (sometimes) he is a picky eater. :p Initially we wanted to have our dinner at old BUT...Old Town is really lousy place to dine in right now (terrible food), hence we decided to give daddy a feast at Pappa Rich instead.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's your big day daddy. :)\n\n\n\nI personally love Pappa Rich a lot because of the conducive environment which exudes such a calming ambiance that makes us feel right at home. When we arrived at its doorstep, there was no other customer...maybe because of its price? Though the food and beverage can be slightly pricier, I don't really mind because the food that Pappa Rich serves is really scrumptious and the portion is quite big. Yep! So you don't feel like you are being short-changed while dining here. Period.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile waiting for our food.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey and Jasmine girl.\n\n\n\n\nBoth Daddy and wifey ordered Nasi Lemak With Curry Chicken while I chose to try their chicken rice. Just look at the chili sambal that we were served. Not only was the sambal tasty, PappaRich was also very generous by giving us a lot of sambal (something that Old Town has failed terribly). Likewise my Chicken Rice was really good as well. Just like the curry chicken, the flesh of the \"white\" chicken was really tender and juicy, something that a lot of similar cafes (Old Town :/) couldn't really offer. The bean sprouts were crunchily toothsome with a hint of saltiness which I really like. To top it off, the chili paste that comes with the chicken rice was really appetizing which made everything that shoved into my mouth tasted so much more delectable. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNasi Lemak with curry chicken.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChicken Rice with Bean Sprouts.\n\n\n\n\nSo what did our two rambunctious babies had for their dinner? Besides sharing our Nasi Lemak and Chicken Rice, we ordered steamed bread and Pappa Naan. This Pappa Naan with curry sauce is really a must have when you patronize Pappa Rich. The Ouh-so-creamy curry sauce really brings out the best in the texture of fluffy naan. Every bite will leave you satisfied and your taste buds gratified (Wow...it rhymes). All in all, we enjoyed our dinner and my Daddy certainly had a great birthday feast to say the least. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPappa Naan-highly recommended.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's makan. :)\n\nWhat birthday would be complete without a cake right? My daddy was grinning from ear to ear the moment we took out his birthday cake. More importantly Daddy was happy because his two little grandchildren were beside him to sing his birthday cake as well.\u00a0Perhaps his two boisterous grandkids are the best birthday gift I could give him every year as a son. LOL We bought tiramisu cake for daddy. I think the cake looked rather special because on top of it was a cup with overflowing coffee...or maybe chocolate. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDaddy's Tiramisu cake.\n\n\n\n\n\nOk~it's time to switch off the lights.\n\n\n\n\n\nHappy birthday to you~Happy birthday to you. :)\n\n\n\n\nLet's blow the candle.\n\n\n\nHappy Birthday daddy.\n\n\n\nLast but not least was my father's birthday gift. However we didn't give my daddy his birthday gift immediately after eating his cake. Therefore my daddy assumed that there would be no gift for him. After all we had treated him to a hearty birthday dinner and then presented him with a birthday cake. Ha ;D When he was no suspecting anything (notice that he was wearing his normal shirt), out came a small gift. Daddy of course happily received it and started to unwrap his birthday gift. So what did he receive for his birthday?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDaddy excitedly unwrapping his birthday gift.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat do you think is inside of this white wrapper?\n\n\n\nA new smartphone for you daddy.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHappy Birthday Daddy! Hopefully you will enjoy using this new smartphone of yours. I love you daddy and I know you love me a lot as well. You will always be my hero.

So on my beloved wife's birthday, I treated my wife to a luxurious dinner at Hard Rock Cafe Malacca.\u00a0I wanted my wife to eat like a queen on her birthday. Ha :D It was our first time dining in this \"posh\" restaurant since its inception. We pass by this fancy eatery quite often, so to be enjoying our dinner in it was quite a pleasant surprise. In fact my wife didn't know we were going to Hard Rock Cafe for her birthday treat until we turned our car into its parking space. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Hard Rock Cafe Malacca.\n\n\n\n\nOne of the most outstanding part about Hard Rock Cafe Malacca has gotta be their customer service, which is not only uber friendly but also very professional. The moment we stepped into the restaurant, a few waiters and waitresses greeted us warmly and they directed us to the place that we wanted to sit. They were very enthusiastic and they made us feel really appreciated as customers. Since it was still early, we could choose to have our dinner at a comfy sofa.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOne for the photo.\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy doodling with his crayons.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are you colouring Jasmine girl?\n\n\n\n\n\nInside Hard Rock Cafe Malacca\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Bar\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo when will our dinner be served?\n\n\n\nWe really love the ambiance in Hard Rock Cafe Malacca. It was really soothing and relaxing. The whole restaurant felt really classy, the lighting and the passion exudes by the waiters did help a lot as well I guess. Speaking about the excellent waiting service, we were really dumbfounded by the personalized and extra care given by all the waiters and waitresses. You see, my wife and I ordered their large Nanchos thinking that all 5 of us (3 adults+2 toddlers) could finish it...however the waitress advised us to take a smaller portion because she was worried that we would not be able to finish all our (other) meals. My! This is what I call 5-star service!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDad's coffee. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey's amazing Strawberry Basil. You should try this.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur appetizer-Nanchos! This first dish was already very filling. :p\n\n\n\n\nAfter placing our orders, we eagerly waited for our scrumptious dinner to be served. While waiting, the waiters handed Jordan and Jasmine colouring sets for them to doddle on. Both of them sure had a lot of fun colouring with their crayons. Again~another brilliant plus point for Hard Rock Cafe Malacca for being really kids-friendly. I really didn't expect their services to be this good honestly! As usual our beverages touched down first on our table. Daddy had his usual sip of Cappucino while wifey tried her tantalizing Strawberry Basil drink. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey's Twisted Mac, Chicken & Cheese\n\n\n\n\n\nCan you finish this? :p\n\n\n\n\n\nDaddy's Fish & Chips.\n\n\n\n\n\nLooks like...a bit too HUGE?\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy holding my barbecue chicken. :D\n\n\n\n\nLook at the slices of perfectly smoked chicken. *drooling*\n\n\nDo you think the food here is nice sweetie? :p\n\n\n\nAfter waiting for around 10 minutes, our dinner was served. First up~Daddy met his rather humongous Fish & Chips. I must say that the fillets of seabass were really, really enormous. We didn't expect our meal to be served in such a huge portion. The fries were extremely \"large-sized\" as well. Next was wifey's Twisted Mac, Chicken and Cheese where the grilled chicken was really, really delectable. Wifey really enjoyed her meal especially the three-cheese sauce that came with it. Last but not least was my Barbeque Chicken. OMG! It was really tender-licking good, just like what they said in the menu-\"fork-tender\". Ha :D The portion was really huge too.\n\n\n\nSo how much did we pay to dine in Hard Rock Cafe?\n\n\n\nCappucino RM15.00\n\nStrawberry Basil RM25.00\n\nNanchos RM43.00\n\nTwister Mac, Chicken & Cheese RM35.00\n\nFish & Chips RM40.00\n\nBarbecue Chicken RM35.00\n\nGST (6%) RM11.58\n\nService Charge (10%) RM19.30\n\nTOTAL = RM223.90\n\n\nAll in all our dinner in Hard Rock Cafe Malacca was an enjoyable affair to say the least. We really love the ambiance in Hard Rock Cafe Malacca, the unbelievably good waiting services and of course the scrumptious food. So will we return? Most definitely but...we must be careful not to over-order what we want to eat as the portion of the meals can be really huge for our otherwise small local tummies. Though a bit pricey, dining at Hard Rock Cafe Malacca was still a very pleasant experience for my family. So if you are a Malacca (or in Malacca), perhaps you should pay Hard Rock Cafe a visit.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWill we come to Hard Rock Cafe Malacca again? Why not? :p\n\n"} {"title": "Hokkaido Cakes From Butter & Olive Pastry House", "body": "\nSome time ago 2 years ago, a new bakery called Butter & Olive Pastry House was officially open for business near our old home. It is really a famous bakery which is patronized by customers every day. So one day, my wife and I thought that we should pay this famous place a visit and we were really amazed with what greeted us inside. Everything looked so beautifully edible in this bakery. And of course the price tags were marginally higher compared to other bakeries.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom Butter & Olive Pastry House\n\n\n\nBack then we were looking for something nice for our little babies. Jordan was 2 years old and Jasmine was only a few months old. After looking high and low behind the glass panels, we had finally decided to buy Hokkaido cakes for our little babies. We did grab a loaf of their famous bread as well...which I had forgotten what it was called. Fruit cake maybe... Then off we headed home to pick our babies home from the babysitter's place. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHokkaido Cakes-we bought this for our babies.\n\n\n\n\n\nAww...look at those delectable icing. :D\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey is feeding our Jordan boy.\n\n\n\n\nAt home, the moment we took out the Hokkaido cakes, Jordan was happily jumping around, waiting to feast his treats. Hmm...obviously he had tasted the cakes before. Perhaps our babysitter's had bought some for him and his sister before this? Jordan boy was so in love with the Hokkaido cake that he insisted on eating it on his own, much to our delight. Jasmine girl...was a bit too young back then...so she wasn't really into it, was she? Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo how was it Jordan boy?\n\n\n\n\n\nOf course it was delicious right?\nSee, he wanted to hold his feast on his own.\n\n\n\n\n\nYUMMY!\n\n\n\n\n\nUh ouh...someone (little Jasmine) was not happy that only\nKor Kor got to lick the Hokkaido Cake. ha :D\n\n\n\n\nLook at little Jordan's expression. Apparently he was savouring every single chunk of those fluffy Hokkaido cakes huh. Not to mention they were really creamy on the inside as well. If these Hokkaido cakes are served slightly a bit chilled, then they would taste even more delicious. The fluffy texture, the chilling cream...my...just let them melt in your mouth. Hmm....perhaps we should go grab some Hokkaido cakes right now for our little Jasmine didn't really get to it them back then huh. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI want to eat Hokkaido Cake as well *drooling*\n\n"} {"title": "Porridge @ Yoke Fook Lau Seafood Restaurant", "body": "\nIt was a rarity that I would get to eat porridge when I am in my second home-Taiping. Being a rice-y kind of guy...or in fact most Malaysians' staple food are rice, eating porridge just doesn't seem that right to me. Not satiating either to say the least. But thanks to my father-in-law,\u00a0I had a wonderful dinner eating porridge at Yoke Fook Lau Seafood Restaurant recently. A fresh, welcome change indeed. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou won't miss this huge billboard.\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Yoke Fook Lau Seafood Restaurant.\n\n\n\n\n\nGotta place our orders immediately. :p\n\n\n\n\nIt was pretty late (me and my babies overslept our afternoon naps :p) to have heavy dinner back then, so my father-in-law suggested that we try something lighter as in porridge. We happily obliged as we had not been to this restaurant before. Once we arrived, we could see that many tables had been occupied and people were waiting for their dinner to be served. Obviously the food here must be quite toothsome!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile waiting~Jordan boy was busy entertaining himself and us.\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy \"headbutting\" his grandpa.\n\n\n\n\n\nYOU~cheeky little boy. :D\n\n\n\n\n\nYours truly and my little princess.\n\n\n\n\n\nYou are hungry already Jasmine girl?\n\n\n\n\n\nFood is coming. :D\n\n\n\n\nAfter placing our order, we excitedly waited for our huge pot of porridge. We chit-chatted a bit to stave off the nagging hunger pangs. Cheeky Jordan was busy playing with his grandpa while little Jasmine girl was quietly checking out her new toy-keychain. A moment later it started to drizzle and that was why our hot steaming porridge that came later was really enticing. Ha :D I can't but feel happy while eating porridge on a rainy day. It makes me feel warm and cozy.\n\n\n\n\n\nOur porridge is here....finally!\n\n\n\n\nBut wait...have to stir it right.\n\n\n\n\nAnd now...finally\n\n\n\n\nDinner is served. :D\n\n\n\n\nServed in a huge clay pot, the billowing scent of porridge immediately made our gaping mouth wet. We were drooling when the fragrance broth was stirred to give it a more balanced texture. The sight of those luscious meatballs didn't help at all! Then one by one, our bowls were filled with our dinner-PORRIDGE. Once I shoveled them porridge into my mouth, my taste buds were sent into frenzy modes. The porridge was really sweet and flavourful.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI love the fish fillet which was really supple, sweet and fresh.\n\n\n\n\n\nFather-in-law enjoying his porridge.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo do you enjoy yours wifey? :D\n\n\n\nThe porridge was oozing with the sweetness of those huge meatballs and fresh fish fillets. I must admit that I had not eaten any porridge as delicious as this for a long, long time. It was really smooth and creamy.\u00a0When I was done licking my bowl, the pot was squeaky clean empty as well. Guess everyone was really hungry. How I wish I could have another bowl of porridge. Perhaps another visit next time? I heard they have other good recommendations such as Asam Steamed Dragon Grouper, Ginger Steamed Lala and Salad Prawn.

This is actually my second time dining in this rustic restaurant which exudes so much Baba Nyonya culture in its simple decoration. We love the cosy ambiance. There were probably around 20 of us from three different generations gathering for our mini family reunion. Heartwarming, it was, as most of us rarely had such opportunity to sit down together and enjoy a meal as a big family.\n\n\n\n~The famous Ole Sayang~\n\n\n\nAddress: 198-199, Taman Melaka Raya, 75000 Melaka.\n\nBusiness Hour:\nLunch: 11:30am-2:30p.m.\nDinner: 6:00p.m.-9:30p.m.\nClosed on Wednesday.\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you like look of the entrance?\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is warm and cozy.\n\n\n\nLocated in Melaka Raya, Ole Sayang serves delicious nyonya food that will leave your taste buds tantalized even after you have left. I wouldn't say that their dishes are authentic but they certainly are delectable. Initially we had a hard time, trying to decide what we wanted to order as we wished to savour something different; something that we don't get to eat every day. Why? Because our family cooks nyonya food as well from time to time. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's start ordering our food.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy cousin and his family.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy uncle and aunt.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy son~which one do you wanna eat first?\n\n\n\n\n\nMy aunt and my cousins.\n\n\n\n\nUpon ruminating for some time, we had finally made up our minds with 8 different dishes. First up we had otak-otak (fish+prawn). Even though it looked rather unsavory, the otak-otak was actually very, very spicily scrumptious. Looks can be deceiving indeed. We also had kang kung fried with belacan which was not bad as well. If you like to eat \"cencaru\", you will love the next dish-Cencaru Omelet. The texture of the omelet was just nice and the aromatic cencaru will make you crave for more! *drooling*\n\n\n\n\n\nNyonya otak-otak.\n\n\n\n\nCan you see the fish meat?\n\n\n\n\nCencaru Omelet\n\n\n\nLadies fingers and sambal belacan\n\n\n\n\nBlack Pepper Brinjal\n\n\n\nOur next dish was boiled ladies fingers with sambal belacan. The ladies fingers were still young and they were perfectly boiled. Combine this with the toothsome sambal belacan, you are in for a crispy treat. Spicy black pepper brinjal was on our menu as well. Aww...of all the vegetables dishes, this is the one I loved the most. The spicy black pepper brinjal was succulent and juicy, not to mention it gives you that hot and spicy kick in your tongue. A must try at Ole Sayang.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBlack pepper lamb\n\n\n\n\n\nSweet & sour fish\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTau Fu soup\n\n\n\n\nWe had something pretty unusual on this occasion. Our next dish was meaty but it was not chicken nor pork (of course)...it was lamb, black pepper lamb to be precise. Although I didn't really like the texture of the meat for it was a bit hard, I did enjoy the mouthwatering black pepper sauce that came sparingly with it. And of course no reunion dinner was complete without fish right? As the saying goes \"every year we will have plenty of fish\" (\u5e74\u5e74\u6709\u4f59) and surely we must have fish as one of our main course. I give-deep fried fish with sweet and sour sauce. Crispy on the outside~lusciously smooth on the inside. Yum! Yum! :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe must have nyonya cendol.\n\n\n\n\n\nWho wants some?\n\n\n\nLast but not least our 8th dish for the day was tau fu soup. The soup was ok, flavourful enough to end our 8 course dinner. Wait...wait...how about dessert? Dinner cannot be complete without dessert right? So we ordered the nyonya cendol which was really, really sweet. I totally loved it because there was a lot of coconut milk and gula melaka. That pretty much bloated our stomach. *buurrrp*\n\n\n\n\n\nRewind a bit~let's wallop!\n\n\n\n\nLet the feast begins.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy son, wifey, daddy and daughter enjoying their dinner.\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey feeding our Jordan boy.\n\n\n\n\nOur you wanna try to eat on your own?\n\n\n\n\nGrandpa feeding little Jasmine.

Since everyone in our family is not working, we decided not to cook our lunch. Wifey and I have been wanting to taste the latest pizza that Pizza Hut is promoting-The Double Sensation Pizza. Like its name, the Double Sensation Pizza is actually a combination of 2 different pizzas-Cheesy Lava Crust and Cheesy Sausage Stuffed Crust! So how did it look and more importantly did it taste good in my mouth? Let's find out.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNo meal is complete without coffee right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBUT...BUT...Before we dwell deeper into food-talking, I would like to rant a bit about our outing. My family had been really anticipating this gastronomic trip for a few weeks ever since we saw this Double Sensation Pizza on TV...we really looked forward to this special off day to have a feast. Unfortunately on the way to Jusco Aeon, we were held back for almost half an hour because of a stalled car. Then when had finally escaped from the massive jam, we had to spin round and round looking for a parking lot. Goodness! Yeah...after all it was Labour Day~mah!\n\n\n\n\n\nMushroom soup was our appetizer. Deliciously salty. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy loves it.\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl enjoyed her mushroom soup as well. :)\n\nOn the way walking to Pizza Hut, we saw that almost all the restaurants were brimming with people (even the lousy ones). So we were really worried that we couldn't find a place in Pizza Hut to enjoy our lunch. Fortunately we did manage to squeeze into Pizza Hut and found a table for the 5 of us. My beloved wifey did all the ordering as it would be her treat. Ha :D Mushroom soup and garlic bread were the first to arrive on our table. Both little Jordan and Jasmine enjoyed the soup and bread a lot.\n\n\n\n\nGotta thank my beloved wifey for treating us. :)\n\n\nUp next was the Favourite Platter that my wife ordered. It is actually a combo of crispy criss-cross fries, delicious New Orleans Drummetts and last but not least the special Toasted Chicken & Cheese Rolls. I particularly enjoyed eating the Toasted Chicken & Cheese Rolls as it was my first time savouring it. It was actually a roll made up of tortilla wrap, chicken, mushrooms, parmesan cheese and some mayonnaise. I love how it tasted~crispy on the outside (tortilla) and\u00a0succulently\u00a0delicious on the inside. You should try it. :)\n\n\n\n\nFirst time trying this Favourite Platter.\n\n\nAww...I love this Toasted Chicken & Cheese Rolls.\nSomehow it reminds me of\u00a0Chicken Cordon Bleu in Secret Recipe.\n\n\n\nNew Orleans Drummetts were soft and juicy. Nom~nom~nom.\n\n\nLast but not least was of course the main dish that our mouth had been watering for-the DOUBLE Sensation Pizza! Honestly, this is arguably one of the best pizzas we had ever eaten at Pizza Hut. Presentation-wise, it looked really amazing...it has been a long time since we last saw any beautiful-looking pizza. The sight of those chicken pepperoni was enough to make me drool. Top that up with oozing cheese in the crust. Not only that! You will also be savouring delicious sausages in the middle crust with tender chicken rolls on top. Isn't this what they call...heaven? *drooling*\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold: Double Sensation Pizza!\n\n\n\n\n\nGoodness...look at the chicken rolls... *drooling*\n\n\n\n\n\nWho wants a piece of hot pizza?\n\nAll in all we really enjoyed our lunch. It had been a while since we really had a great time eating pizzas. And I must say that everything tasted unbelievably\u00a0scrumptious\u00a0this time around. The mushroom soup was awesome, the favourite platter was refreshingly new and of course the Double Sensation Pizza was truly one mouth-watering pizza with generous toppings and cheese. Highly recommended. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl~let's go back.

Both of them were\u00a0visibly\u00a0very excited, especially when it comes to food (just like their mommy :p). After receiving our glossy menus, we had a hard time deciding what to order for all of the food looks so darn appetizing! Maybe because all of the dishes would be served with the same, tastebuds-tantalizing sambal! In the end we ordered the Ayam Masak Merah nasi lemak and Rendang nasi lemak. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI like the ambiance a lot. :D\n\n\n\n\n\nMy huge mug of coffee. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife ordered this~bubble milk tea?\n\n\n\n\n\nMy babies half-boiled eggs are here.\n\n\n\n\n\nMommy preparing the eggs for them.\n\n\n\n\n\nTime to eat.\n\n\n\n\nPersonally I love the ambiance in Kluang Station. Unlike the more lavish-looking Old Town or PappaRich, Kluang Station looks simple and yet comfortable at the same time. Dining in Kluang Station gives you that\u00a0laid-back\u00a0feeling of \"kampung\". It feels like you are actually dining in a stall near the railway station. Must be the decoration. Ha :D After a while~my aromatic coffee arrived. Kluang Station's coffee is more aromatic~and not to mention served in bigger mug too.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMommy's Nasi Lemak Ayam Masak Merah is here.\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's time to eat rice.\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl quietly enjoying her rice.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat do you think Jordan boy? Are they delicious?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy showing his cheeky smile to give his approval. :)\n\n\n\n\nOur babies who were hungry got to enjoy their half-boiled eggs. Yummy! After waiting for around 10 minutes~after lunch was here: My wife's lunch-Nasi Lemak Ayam Masak Merah touched down first. I tried her dish and it was very darn spicy~deliciously spicy to be precise. Shortly after that, I finally got to eat my Nasi Lemak Rendang. I have tried this before as I usually ordered only the normal nasi lemak. The portion was reasonable and spicy enough for me. Aww~how I wish I had ordered another one.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy Nasi Lemak Rendang.\n\n\n\n\n\nYou know it is delicious!\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fragrant rice alone is suffice to make me drool non-stop!\n\n\n\nSo if you ask me: Who serves the best Nasi Lemak in Malacca? My answer would be Kluang Station as the fragrant rice which was cooked with coconut milk was really delicious. You can distinctly feel each grain of the rice as they melt in your mouth. Coupled with the perfectly blended sambal. Such savoury~Aww~Ok! I think I have to go there again for my nasi lemak fix this week. Goodness! So have you tried the nasi lemak here?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKluang Station serves the best nasi lemak. :)\n\n"} {"title": "Once Upon A Time In A&W", "body": "\nSome time ago (almost 3 years ago), immediately after the new Jusco was opened, my wife, her sister and I was loitering around looking for something to eat. Then we saw A&W. Although not many people were patronizing this fast food restaurant, I still wanted to have a bite or two there and then. Honestly I love A&W a lot. In fact, it is one of my all-time favourite fast food because my parents used to bring me and my brother to A&W when we were young during Chinese New Year. That is why I have always had this fond affection for A&W. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe famous logo. :D\n\n\n\n\n\nWow...one of the burgers was so good until it was sold out?\n\n\n\n\n\nThis was what we had?\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife (left) enjoying her supper with her sister.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo do you like you fries sweetie?

To taste the onion fries and sip the root beer together with my wife was truly a memorable experience. I wonder why I didn't order any burger. And it baffles me to know that until today...I have yet to try their burgers and the iconic Coney Dog. Haha :D Gotta get one of them one day. What's stopping me?

The place looks nice and cozy. Somehow not many people were interested to dine in A&W. Any idea why? However the last time when I passed by, I saw the business is finally picking up. To be up and running after almost 3 years (in Jusco) goes to show that A&W is making some money aye. Well~that's great for I would love this nostalgic fast food chain to remain open as it reminds me of my childhood. Do you guys love to eat A&W? So who wants some root beer?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNow...I am hungry...\n\n"} {"title": "KFC Zinger DOUBLE Down-All Meat All Man Burger", "body": "\nI believe by now you would have heard or seen the unimaginable KFC Zinger Double Down right?\u00a0Previously when someone shared about this new burger on Facebook, I thought it was a hoax.\u00a0Can you imagine...a burger without the breads?

So have you tried this gargantuan burger from KFC yet?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll MEAT, all MAN?\n\n\n\n\nMakes me wonder who is behind this very phenomenal burger.

First thing first, it was very, very meaty and not to mention spicy. One single patty alone is already great; add in another and your taste buds will be exploded to the max...and that is when you become \"all man\". Ha :D Then again, it is best that you savour this special species of burger the moment it came out from the stove or fryer. That is when the zinger patties are still\u00a0succulently\u00a0juicy and the cheese are still melting. *drooling* So wanna be all meat and all man?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNow I am all meat and certainly all MAN!\n\n\n\n\nP.S.: Sorry for this really lame post about burger.

So we visited a new Japanese restaurant which is just a stone's throw away from our home. A few of my friends have tried the food here and they said it is better than those served in Sushi King (really?).\u00a0They claimed that this new place is a must-visit for Japanese food lovers.\u00a0Introducing Wasabi Sushi House, which is located at Taman Mederka Permai.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPictures decorating the walls.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCleanse yourself with a cup of green tea before the feast. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are these? You will know later. :)\n\n\n\nThere are quite a lot of people when we reached Wasabi Sushi House. Even though the restaurant is a tad small, it is quite comfortable. My wife and I took quite some time before we could decide what to eat...perhaps too many choices for our plates? We needed to wait for a while before our feast could start. The first to land on out table was a bowl of Edamame. I think I have never tried these boiled soybean before, thus making it more pleasurable for me...the few dashes of salt made them more edible as well. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEdamame-I love it. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nA bit salty...but that's why it is so yummy.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you like Jordan boy?\n\n\n\n\nI had a lot of fun, squeezing out those soybeans from their sheaths. My Jordan boy enjoyed it as well. :p After the appetizers, our main dishes soon arrived. My wife tried the Salmon Bento which came with rice, soup, salad, seawed, chicken fillets, watermelon and of course salmon. Sounds like a wholesome set of meal huh! My scintillating dinner was Karaage Tama Don. Hmm...presentation wise it was quite mouth-watering.

Then again I wish that more Salmon could have been added. Haha :D I am being greedy aye. I also love their special blend of \"wasabi\". Instead of providing us with the usual green wasabi paste, Wasabi Sushi House serves its customers with\u00a0distinctively\u00a0spicy mixture of chilies and wasabi. Thumbs up for this.

LOL :D We needn't think too hard on what we wanted to eat because we had made up our mind to have something spicy that Sunday-CHILI'S! My sister-in-law was the one who suggested that we should dine in the famous Chili's Grill & Bar Restaurant. I have read so much review about Chili's...so I guess it was time that I gave \u00a0Chili's a try. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFinally we are here Chili's!\n\n\n\n\n\nAww...I love this kind of ambiance. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nBusy looking through the menu.\n\n\n\nWe checked into the Chili's which is located in MidValley around 12 noon and we were pleasantly surprised that there was no other patrons yet. Yay! So we were the earliest to taste the Chili's on that sizzling Sunday. I have always loved to dine in a restaurant which is not too crowded for it will become rather stuffy...and not to mention noisy, once everyone starts to cramp into the same place. So it was really nice to be the early birds. Once we had comfortably seated ourselves, we waved at the ever-waiting waitress to have our menus.\n\n\n\n\n\nAl' Fresco outside of Chili's. Not bad at all right?\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's go inside.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho wants a Tiger?\n\nSo what else can you see in Chili's?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeriously...we had a hard time trying to choose what we should eat. We were totally clueless on what should be on our plates...burgers? Steaks? Sandwiches? We had no idea at all...it was our first time patronizing Chili's so it was difficult to call the shot. After around 20 minutes or so...we were finally able to pinpoint our food for the day. By then...we were shocked...why? The whole Chili's was crowded already. So we were not alone after all...Our beverages arrived after 5 minutes. My wife and her sister had bottomless fruit juices while yours truly me? Coffee of course...cappuccino to be precise.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy queen looking at what she wanna feast at. :D\n\n\n\n\n\nMy sister-in-law and my Jasmine girl. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy busy with his crayon. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAww...a great time to catch up with each other.\n\n\n\n\nOf course we had to wait for our food to land on our table. So while waiting, I loitered around Chili's snapping some photos here and there for\u00a0remembrance. The Chili's in MidValley is located on the ground floor, so you can choose to either dine in the air-conditioned Chili's or go Al' Fresco right outside of the restaurant, which is not bad either...if the weather is\u00a0accommodating. Although Chili's is dimly lighted, it somehow feel very warm and cosy. Its \"home sweet home\" ambiance will make you feel so at ease. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nBottomless? Free Flow?\n\n\n\n\n\nGuava juice.\n\n\n\n\nApple juice.\n\n\n\n\nMy coffee. Aww...so aromatic...\n\n\nLet's talk about food now, shall we? Our appetizer was the bottomless tostada chips. This was my very first time trying out tostada chip and I love how it tasted. The included Chili's in-house salsa made the chips taste much better. Up next was fish and chips. I think Chili's fish and chips is by far...the weirdest I have eaten so far. IMHO too much batter was used to fry the fish fillet, making it rather thick. Then again the fish and chips were fresh and\u00a0succulent. All in all...not too bad.\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's feeding frenzy time!\n\n\n\n\n\nMy first time eating these-Tostada chips.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe salsa sauce simply spice those chips up!\n\n\n\n\n\nFish and chips...hmmm...how come they looked like fried chickens?\n\n\n\n\n\nPepper Pals Grilled Chicken Sandwich-This belonged to Jordan boy.\n\n\n\n\nSee? He was so hungry huh! :p\n\n\nOur priceless moment in Chili's. View the slideshow:\n\n\n\nWe were surprised that Chili's actually threw in a complimentary kid's meal for little Jordan. Dubbed the Pepper Pals Grilled Chicken Sandwich, the portion of the meal was quite generous for our 21 months old little Jordan. Of course he could only eat a bit of it. The rest? We, the adults, walloped of course. LOL :D Last but not least was the amazingly delicious crispy honey-chipotle chicken crispers that I ordered. OMG! I enjoyed the perfectly fried crispy chicken a lot. The spicy and smoky honey chipotle sauce made the whole dish damn\u00a0irresistible! Heavenly~I highly recommend this dish if you were to dine in Chili's.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy Crispy \u00a0Honey-Chipotle Chicken Crispers!\n\n\n\n\nLook at them...I am drooling right now.\n\n\n\n\nAww...I wanna eat crispy chicken strips again!\n\n\n\n\n\n*drooling*\u00a0Honey-Chipotle! Yummy!\n\n\nAll in all I really enjoyed feasting in Chili's. It was a great dining experience and I truly love the ambiance. The food was great...well...depending on what you order. Besides the fries...which was really too much and \"redundant\"...we have little complain about Chili's. However I think it is a bit pricey...then again my sister-in-law treated us...so no complaint.

How pathetic aye? I am glad that at the end of last year, I had finally tasted a slice of this delicious mille creme cake. Where else in Malacca can we get our mille crepe other than the Nadeje right? Honestly...after my first encounter with mille \u00a0crepe at Nadeje, I have to concede that it is the one of the best cakes I have ever eaten in my entire life. It even comes mightily close to beat my favourite Chocolate Royal. So have you tried mille crepe before?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNadeje Cafe-The Place Where Mille Crepe are made!\n\n\n\nDo you know that Nadeje serves a whopping 18 different flavours of mille crepe? That's a lot of choices aye. So far I had only eaten like...maybe 7 of 8 different flavours; Meaning that I need to go to Nadeje at least a dozen of times some more enjoy the remaining flavours of mille crepe. Then only I can consider myself to be a \"certified, professional\" mille crepe taster. :p How about you guys? Anyone of you have tried all the different 18 flavours?\n\n\n\n\n\nTiramisu Mille Crepe\n\n\n\n\n\nI think this is one of the best flavour of mille crepe at Nadeje.\n\n\n\n\nMille Crepe...the name sounds rather \"crepe-y\" right? Do you know what's the meaning of mille crepe? First thing first, you need to know that mille crepe actually originates from French. So that means both mille and crepe are French words. Crepe actually means a thin layer of cake whilst mille means a thousand layer. \u00a0So now you know why mille crepe is more fondly known as thousand layer cakes. Of course...it is impossible for Nadeje to stack 1,000 layers of cake to be consumed by us right....or can they? :p However Nadeje's mille crepe cakes does not come from France...they came all the way from the land of rising sun-Japan.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMocha flavour!\n\n\n\n\n\nVery rich and dense. :D\n\n\n\nSo what's your favourite flavours of mille crepe? As for me and my wife...our favourite choices of mille crepe at Nedeje are Tiramisu and Mocha flavours. That's exactly what we ordered during our first visit there. I think we needed around 15 minutes to choose our mille crepe...because there were too many flavours. :/ As for beverages...my wife ordered...don't know \"mango\" drink...haha :D How about me? Of course coffee~lah! And no cake (including mille crepe) will be complete without a perfectly brewed coffee more so if it is illy Cappuccino. Aww...so heavenly...\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy got to enjoy mille crepe as well.\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you love it darling boy?\n\n\n\n\n\nSo can you see the \"thousand layer\"? :p\n\n\n\nI will never ever forget the very first time I savour my very first scoop of mille crepe...the very moment my taste buds were carressed the luscious crepe...aww...it's like a thousand fireworks were set off in my mouth. The texture, the flavour, the density of the mille crepe...you can literally feel how it melts in your mouth. It's neither too sweet nor too creamy...just nice. Top it up with an aromatic coffee...and wow...I feel like I can eat mille crepe cakes for another thousand times. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife enjoyed this...don't know what mango-peach-something drink. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\nAwww...me? illy cappuccino~:D\n\n\n\n\nSo where can you get your Mille Crepe? If you are in Malacca, there are 2 places where you can savour your Thousand Layer cake. The first one was on the top of Dataran Pahlawan, while the other Nadeje is located in Melaka Raya. Both my wife and I really enjoyed the ambiance in Nadeje. It is very cozy and calming. A great place to unwind and relax. So have you eaten a mille crepe before? It's time for you to taste the richness of this thousand layer cake. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nSo who wanna have mille crepe?\n\n\nP.S.: I usually dine at the Nadeje in Dataran Pahlawan.

My sister-in-law who is dwelling around there suggested that we try some Korean food. Since we were so hungry after traveling for 3 hours non-stop, our taste buds agreed to be Korean-ised! My sister-in-law led us to KimchiHaru which is located in Jaya One. We could easily find a parking space as it was still school holiday then. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to KimchiHaru.\n\n\n\n\n\nRed makes you hungry, right?\n\n\n\n\n\nAww...nice ambiance.\n\n\n\n\nChic decoration.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGreen touch.\n\n\n\n\nWe were greeted by 2 waiters upon entering the rather small restaurant. Instantly, I couldn't help but feel at home in KimchiHaru. Why? I love the decoration in KimchiHaru which is very soft and subtle. Aww...I don't mind basking in such comfy ambiance while enjoying my food. Jordan boy utterly loved KimchiHaru. Besides...there were not many customers on that day. Menus were later placed on our table and we started to see what we should order. In the end, my sister-in-law who had been there several time \"guided\" us on what to eat. LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy suster-in-law (left), wifey and Jordan boy.\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey catching up with her sister.\n\n\n\n\nJordan was busy with his new toy-The Spoon!\n\n\nOur Jordan~boy in KimchiHaru.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHonestly...I had forgotten (the names) what we ordered. After all I am neither a Hallyu fan nor a food specialist. I think we picked 3 different sets of dishes. Me, being a carnivorous rice-lover, had Pork Bulgogi which came with Bachan, Soup, Kimchi, Salad and of course rice. My wife and her sister both shared a bowl of Kimchi Soup and huge platter of Jeon Platter. Now what is so special about this Jeon Platter is that we get to choose 3 out of the 5 different Jeon (pancake-like dishes) which are: Prawn-Squid, Kimchi Green-Bean, Cheese-Kimchi, Fish and Buchu. Can you tell which 3 Jeons did we pick?\n\n\n\n\n\nMy Pork Bulgogi set meal.\n\n\n\n\n\nAww...look at those invitingly saucy pork. *drooling*\n\n\n\n\n\nSalad and kimchi.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy delicate-looking bachan.\n\n\n\n\nAfter waiting for about 15 minutes our meals were served. Personally I love my Pork Bulgogi. It was\u00a0scintillatingly hot and succulent. And of course it went very well with white rice.Yum~yum. The side dishes were so-so to say the least. I enjoyed the hot bowl of Kimchi Soup. Perhaps it was my first time sipping such a soup with peculiar ingredients not known to me. Ha :D Last but not least our much-anticipated Jeon Platter landed on our table.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKimchi Soup.\n\n\n\n\n\nCan anyone tell me what I was grabbing?\n\n\n\n\nOur special Jeon Platter.\n\n\n\n\nFish Jeon-yummy!\n\n\n\n\nLast but not least a glass of Korean Coffee for me. :)\n\n\n\n\nThere were 12 Jeons altogether. The 3 different flavours of Jeons that we picked were Prawn-Squid, Cheese-Kimchi and Fish. The included spicy sauce really made these pancakes more delicious. To top it off I had a glass of Korean Coffee which tasted relatively good. All in all my wife, sister-in-law, baby Jordan and I really enjoyed ourselves here. It was a very good experience for all of us. The bill came at RM54 which is, IMHO very reasonable. So will we drop by at KimchiHaru again? Of course. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe enjoyed ourselves at KimchiHaru.\n\n\n\n\nAddress:\n\n12-LG1 Block D Jaya One,\n\n72A, Jalan University,\n\n46200 Petaling Jaya, Selangor.\n\nTel: 03-7629 8020\n\nFacebook: KimchiHaru\n"} {"title": "Our Not-so-good Starbucks Experience!", "body": "\nLast weekend my wife and I decided to pay Starbucks a visit. After our pleasant patronage to Coffee Bean where we had latte, vanilla and muffin, some of my readers said that the coffee and cakes in Starbucks are more delicious and there are more varieties. My wife and I heeded their recommendation and brought along little Jordan to snack on some muffin (again). We were hoping that little Jordan would enjoy his first visit to Starbucks...however it didn't turn out well for the three of us. I was disappointed thrice that night...\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe famous twin-tailed siren.\n\n\nI think there is like...only one Starbucks in Malacca, which is in Mahkota Parade. After parking our car, off we headed to Starbucks with high expectations. Upon entering, we were greeted by lots of yummy-looking cakes and not to mention, muffins as well. So Starbucks do have more variety compared to Coffee Bean aye. We looked at the menus hovering on top of the baristas...and surely we were spoilt for choice. After wondering for a long time...\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBanana Chocolate Chip Muffin for Jordan boy.\n\n\n\n\nWe finally decided to order: Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin (for Jordan Boy), Chocolate Tuxedo, Caramel Chocolate, Java Chip Frappuccino and Green Tea Latte. Let's talk about the muffin first shall we? We ordered this for little Jordan because he loves his muffin in Coffee Bean. Unfortunately...the same cannot be said about this muffin. Little Jordan instantaneously spitted out the muffin that we fed him. What had happened? Does it really taste that bad? I asked my wife and this is her reply, \"The muffin in Coffee Bean is way tastier!\" *sigh* First disappointment.\n\n\n\n\n\nChocolate Tuxedo: The better of the two.\n\n\n\n\n\nChocolate Caremel: Too sweet...\n\n\n\n\nAfter that both my wife and I grabbed our fork to taste our 2 slices of chocolatey cakes: Chocolate Tuxedo and Caramel Chocolate. Both these cake tasted OK, only. My wife told me that the cakes are not to her liking and she asked my if I enjoyed them...and my answer was, \"The Chocolate Royal in Coffee Bean is more delicious!\" So there is indeed more variety in Starbucks...BUT the cakes and food there is not good enough for Starbucks' own standard and fame. *sigh* Second\u00a0disappointment.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy \"weird-tasting\" Frappuccino.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife's satisfying mug of green tea latte.\n\n\n\n\nI can't really compare the beverage as I seldom drink Frappuccino...but yours, truly me can't help but feel that I am drinking a herbal tea. Weird :/ Likewise my wife said that both my Frappuccino and her green tea latte tasted perfectly fine. OK. Fine...so I was not disappointed. Wait...so the third\u00a0disappointment\u00a0that I mentioned earlier was about what? You could have guessed it if you have been my ardent Twitter followers. Read on to find out...\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAt least little Jordan enjoyed the \"chilliness\" of my Frappuccino. :D\n\n\n\n\nIf was drizzling as we were stepping out of Mahkota Parade. We hurriedly stormed into the car and ignited the engine. \"Ladies and gentlemen, fasten your\u00a0seat-belts. We are going home!\" I cried. I floored the accelerator and looked up...\"Holy Shit! We are trapped!\" We were trapped in a fleet of cars struggling to get out of the parking lot. My baby boy, my wife and I was trapped in the parking lot...for 1 freaking hour! Never in my life I have been trapped for so long (in Malacca). Wrong timing I guess. That totally ruined our already not-so-good Starbucks visit. *groan* Third disappointment!\n\nP.S.: Sorry for the terribly-looking photos.

Actually both of us were still very full after our dinner. But that was not going to stop us from having coffee (me) and dessert. I placed my baby Jordan in the baby chair and off I went to order what the 3 of us would be enjoying.

So I ordered Chocolate Muffin for little Jordan. Although each of these muffins cost a whopping RM4.90, my wife and little Jordan enjoyed every single bite of it. It was very delicious, more so since it was served hot. My wife and I also shared a slice of Royal Chocolate Cake. Aww...this slice of chocolately indulgence is way tastier compared to the one in Secret Recipe. I simply love every single spoon of it.

Actually...we had more than just a glass. They were huge mugs. So for beverages, I had a\u00a0HUMONGOUS Double Chocolate Latte while my wife enjoyed her Hot Vanilla.\u00a0OMG! I reckon my huge mug of Double Chocolate Latte has a volume of around 1\u00a0liter? There's almost 2 pints of caffeine down my throat right into my tummy. No wonder I am filling so full...in fact my stomach is still bloated.

There will be tonnes of food in Taiping for you to choose from especially Chinese cuisines.\u00a0It's like everyone in Taiping is gifted in cooking huh! I will personally recommend Jing Yik Man Tang Seafood Restaurant or Xin Kwai Lerk Seafood Restaurant if you happen to visit the City of Rain.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHello Aunty Mary.\n\n\n\n\nToday I am going to share with you what I had in Taiping recently. Nope. It is not in another fancy restaurant. Instead I would like to bring you to a house (near Tesco Taiping) where I had Siam Laksa. Upon arriving, we were warmly greeted by Aunty Mary who was in her pyjamas. *joking* Haha :D Each of us ordered a bowl of Siam Laksa after being seated. In less than 5 minutes our dinner was served. My mind was asking questions back then. \"Will this siam laksa taste good? Will it spicy? etc.\" My wife has told me a lot about Aunty Mary's Siam Laksa, hence I kinda have lots of expectations for it...\n\n\n\n\n\nHere comes our Siam Laksa.\n\n\n\n\nIt sure looked appetizing to me..even now. :D\n\n\n\n\nLet's wallop this spicy bowl of Siam Laksa.\n\n\n\n\n\nBurrrppp...damn satisfying. :)\n\n\n\n\nSo how was the Siam Laksa? I think I would love to give Aunty Mary's Siam Laksa 2 thumbs up. The Siam Laksa tasted really, really delicious. It really sent my taste buds into feeding frenzy. It has been a while since I last had something as good as this. The\u00a0spiciness\u00a0was just nice to arouse my appetite. The near-transparent\u00a0noodles used blended really well with the thick Siam Laksa soup (or paste). So what my wife told was true. Buuurrppp....best of all this generous bowl of Siam Laksa only cost RM2.70.

I kept on boasting about how tasty the noodle was; How crispy the wan tan tasted like...until I tried the Wan Tan Mee in her hometown. After eating the Wan Tan Mee in Taiping (Perak)...I think it should now be crowned as the new best undisputed Wan Tan Mee in Malaysia.\u00a0I loved the Wan Tan Mee in Taiping so much that I ate them 3 times in the space of 2 days. So tasty that I kept on pestering my wife, telling her that I wanted to go out on my own to eat Wan Tan Mee when I was back in her hometown. LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Prima Coffee Shop. It is air-conditioned. :)\n\n\n\n\nOf course there are many Wan Tan Mee stalls in Taiping and most of them serve relatively good Wan Tan Mee. But if you really a Wan Tan Mee-holic, and want to savour nothing but the best Wan Tan Mee in town...then you should try the legendary Wan Tan Mee in Kedai Kopi Prima Coffee Shop. So far it serves the best Wan Tan Mee I have ever eaten in my 26 years of life. That's a rather bold claim right? But believe me, it is the best of the best. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nYes. One plate of Wan Tan Mee will cost you at least RM3.50.\n\n\n\n\nPlates of noodle awaiting to be garnished!\n\n\n\n\n\nFather-and-son Wanton Act!\n\n\n\n\nThe moment you enter this coffee shop, you need to find a numbered \"empty\" table. In other words you need to be seated first. With the number of the table, then only you can place your orders at the Wan Tan Mee stall. If not they won't be entertaining you. If you were there, you would be able to see an uncle busy cooking the noodle while his son would be helping him to add the other ingredients such as vegetables and of course...Wan Tan (dumplings). Then a helper (a maid) could be seen toiling with the tray to serve Wan Tan Mee.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe noodle is being expertly cooked!\n\n\n\n\nAfter waiting for almost 20 minutes...my plate(s) of Wan Tan Mee had finally made it onto our table. My mouth was already watering. My taste buds were jumping excitedly upon seeing the generous portion of char siew, minced meat and wantons. Aww...what a sight to behold. I immediately used my chopstick, grabbed the noodle and lifted it...the fragrance of the noodles that oozed out after being \"trapped\" made me even hungrier. \"It's feasting time!\" Nom~Nom~Nom~Nom~\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey feeding little some bread while waiting for our Wan Tan Mee.\n\n\n\n\nSeems like Little Jordan is interested in using the chopsticks.\n\n\n\n\nNow what's so special about the Wan Tan Mee in Taiping? Is it so much different from the ones in Malacca? Aren't all Wan Tan Mee should taste the same? I thought so too...but the moment I had my very first bite, I knew it was a whole different story. Unlike the noodle used in Malaccan Wan Tan Mee, which is thinner, the noodle of Wan Tan Mee in Taiping is broader and more springy. Moreover the noodle is made with lots of eggs, hence enhancing its overall texture. Apart from the noodle, the flavouring and sauces used are completely different as well. 2 words: Damn Delicious!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur Wan Tan Mee.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo darn appetizing...\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's eat our springy Wan Tan Mee. :D\n\n\n\n\nSo have you tried the Wan Tan Mee in Taiping before? Do you enjoy it as much as I do? So far I have tried the Wan Tan Mee in KL, Penang, Johor, Malaccaand of course the latest one is Taiping, Perak.\u00a0Hmm...I wonder how are the Wan Tan Mee from other states taste like. If you think the Wan Tan Mee at your place is the best, do recommend it to me. I might try it one day.

But during out last visit home, my father-in-law decided to bring us to another seafood restaurant-Jing Yik Man Tang \uff08\u91d1\u7389\u6ee1\u5802\uff09. This restaurant is only a stone's throw away from our home, around 5 minutes and IMHO the food served is way more delicious compared to the ones at Xin Kwai Lerk Seafood Restaurant. Besides at Jing Yik Man Tang I got to taste a dish I have never ever eaten in my entire life. You have to read on to find out what the special dish was. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Jing Yik Man Tang Seafood Restaurant.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApparently Jing Yik Man Tang Seafood Restaurant was previously opened at another venue in Taiping. They had been relocated to this more \"open\" area recently. My father-in-law said that since their inception at this new location, their business has really flourished. I couldn't agree more as this restaurant was virtually crowded when we went there. I believe this have something to do with the feng shui aye. Ha :D As usual my father-in-law would be the one who ordered all the food. While were chatting, little Jordan refused to sit still in his baby chair. Instead he wanted to be carried; he wanted to venture around. So I brought him out of his \"cage\" to\u00a0sight see\u00a0while waiting for the arrival of our food.\n\n\n\n\nSee? So many people. Can you see where are my wife and baby? :p\n\n\n\nLittle Jordan, wifey and father-in-law waiting for our dinner.\n\n\n\n\nAs there were quite a number of people on that day, we had to wait for awhile before dinner was served. Hence my wife grasped this opportunity to catch up with her father and sister. It always feels good to be back home with your family again huh! :) After around...20 minutes our dinner was served. The first plate of dish that made it to our table was lemonade chicken chop. First look of the dish didn't appeal me at all. It looked rather plain. But once I ate one of piece of it, I knew how wrong was I. The chicken chop was not crispy on the outside but also tender juicy in the inside. The chef had really retained the juice in the chicken. And the lemon juice or \"sauce\" really fused well with the chicken chop to enhance its overall texture and taste.\n\n\n\n\nLemonade Chicken Chop!\n\n\n\n\nThe next dish that \"swam\" its way onto our table was deep fried fish with shredded ginger. Frankly I didn't really know how this fish tasted as I didn't eat it. You see yours, truly me, doesn't fancy eating fish. Maybe I used to be a salmon swimming up the stream to spawn...or maybe I was just to plain lazy to eat fish. Ha :D Later on we found ourselves a plate of hot and spicy vegetable. Yupe~my favourite \"spicy kang kung\". I am not a vege lover, but who can resist the spiciness of Kang Kung right?\u00a0Nom~nom~nom!\n\n\n\n\nCan anyone tell what fish is this?\n\n\n\nMy favourite Spicy Kang Kung!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTantalizing toufu!\n\n\nAfter grazing some vegetables, the next food that we devoured was toufu fried with sauya sauce. Not too bad! Last but not least was the dish that I said I have never ever eaten before in my entire 26 years' of life. Maybe it was just me. Then again this dish was so special that I can't help but be full of praise of it. Ladies and gentlemen...let me introduce to you...a dish that has been alien to me until now (or then)...Yam Fish Soup . At first I thought it was just another soupy dish. But when I took a second look at it, or was it third? Then only I realized it was a dish my taste buds had never encountered before.\n\n\n\n\nSpecialty\u00a0Dish-Yam Soup Fish.\n\n\n\n\nThe flesh of the fish was very succulent and its original taste was very much retained. And the yam soup...was very creamy and tasty. Aww...I enjoyed the smoothness of the yam soup. :) You see I love this dish of fish cooked with yam even though I am not a \"fishy\" kind of guy. I highly recommend this dish especially to first timers. This dish happens to be the Specialty Dish of the restaurant. No wonder it tasted so delicious! If you happen to drop by in Taiping, do indulge yourselves at Jing Yik Man tang Seafood Restaurant. Make sure you are there early (6p.m.). :)\n\n\n\n\nYummy or not Jordan~boy? :)\n\n"} {"title": "Wifey's BD Dinner @ Gathering Restaurant", "body": "\nLast month I treated my wife to have a\u00a0scrumptious\u00a0dinner for her birthday.

So I waited for Submerryn to lead me and her entourage to the place where we would have our sumptuous buffet! Our seafood buffet dinner was awaiting us at Nusantara.

Immediately the first thing I did was...no not helped myself to the food, instead I took out my camera and began snapping all those fantabulous food. I think I spent close to 15 minutes (or more) to capture all those food that would be making contact with my taste buds later. While I was shutter-bigging, I couldn't help my mouth from watering itself. I had to resist for I wouldn't have the opportunity when the feeding frenzy began later. Ha :D\n\n\nLet's see who our chefs made our day shall we?\n\n\nGrilled to perfection~he is the griller.\n\n\n\n\nToo bad I didn't get to try these. :(\n\n\n\n\nShe was the one who totally made my day.

The first thing that I grabbed for myself were the oysters, both raw and cooked ones. I must say that both the osters tasted delicious. Maybe I haven't had any for a long, long time that's why the moment these succulent\u00a0oysters\u00a0made first contact we my taste buds...it was like fireworks.\u00a0Sounds like I am a \"jakun\" or something aye. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\nThe prawns were juicy!\n\n\n\nI had a few of these succulent oysters *slurp~slurp*\n\n\n\n\nAwww~~~~My perfectly cooked Salmon!\n\nLater on I feasted on...well too many toothsome food for me to recall. However I must say that the grilled Salmon that I had in Philea Resort is one of the most toothsome ones I have ever tasted before. My hat off to the chef who\u00a0immaculately\u00a0\"fried\" my favourite Salmon. Suprisingly unlike my other \"cooked salmon\" encounters, this one was not delicious but there is no fishy taste to it at all. Best of all...I could still feel the texture of the orange Salmon flesh when I sink my eager teeth into it. Ouh....so damn\u00a0luscious!\n\n\n\n\nWow...why was this given so many \"limelight\"?\n\n\n\n\nWas it bread or something? :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBut I am sure these are certainly bread. :p\n\n\nOf course I did try the other food as well. The finger food were sweetly prepared and desserts were \u00a0 amazing. Last but not least of course I made myself a cup of coffee and chit chat with the other bloggers. I enjoyed having a good chat with a few fellow bloggers which I have never met in real life. Ha :D It was very rare that a \"kampung\" blogger like me get to meet these celebrity bloggers such as Jasonmumbles, Submerryn, Lionelong and Iamthewitch.\n\n\n\n\nOf course we must have dessert right?\n\n\n\n\nAnd...not forgetting our kuih-muih!\n\n\n\n\nWhat berry are you?\n\n\n\n\nWhipped berries!\n\n\n\n\nI ate 2 slices of this chocolatey cake.\n\n\n\n\nUp close and personal.\n\n\n\n\nMy final sweet escape with one of these.\n\n\nMy feeding frenzy lasted for almost 3 hours. Goodness...must have eaten a lot. All in all...IMHO, the food that was prepared for us were fitting for those of royalties and\u00a0nobilities\u00a0origins. Yep! I did feel like a king for a day with this myriad of glorious seafood. The only sour note was that I couldn't taste everything there...maybe my tummy is too small. :p Last but not least I wanna thank Philea Resort for treating me to this seafood galore buffet.

Still remember the yee sang that I have tossed recently? Well those slices of sushi fillets were bought in Jusco. I think I can never get enough of these mouth-watering salmon. I wonder why? Then again I know we are seriously depleting their numbers and are driving them to extinction. My bad...So what is your favourite at Sushi King folks?\n\n\n\n\nI seriously think that I should work in Sushi King.\n\nThen I can have all the salmon sashimi that I want.

It was a surprise for him as we did not tell him about our homecoming. When we arrived he was still sound asleep. We wanted to \"ambush\" in his bedroom but were afraid that we might startled him. Hence we waited for him to wake up. So when he got downstairs and saw all of us back at home...he was so taken aback...the smile on his face said it all. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nXin Kwai Lerk Seafood Restaurant-The best in Taiping?\n\nS13, Medan Councillor,\nAulong, 34000 Taiping, Perak.\n\n\n\n\nMy father-in-law's birthday was supposed to be today (21st March) but as all of us are working so we had to celebrate slightly \u00a0earlier. No birthday is complete without the customary family reunion dinner right? So on Saturday we headed towards our favourite eating spot-Xin Kwai Lerk Seafood Restaurant. This is the place that we will never fail to whet our appetite during our every homecoming. Sounds like we are addicted to the food here aye. :p\n\n\n\n\nWhile waiting for our dishes...\n\n\n\n\nLet's sip our tea shall we?\n\n\n\n\nLittle Jordan busy playing his toy.\n\n\n\n\nWifey catching up with her father. :)\n\n\n\n\nJordan ready to \"mam mam\"?\n\n\n\n\nXin Kwai Lerk serves the best, affordable seafood in Taiping. Have you been to this restaurant before? If you are interested to pay this restaurant which is situated in Aulong a visit....my advice is come very early. In fact you have to come as early as 6p.m. to reserve your place or you can book via their hotline (016-4531663). If you come late, I am afraid you have to wait maybe close to an hour before your hunger pangs will go way while looking at other people dining. :p\n\n\n\n\nOur spicy fish. I am not a fishy person but this was not bad at all.\n\n\n\n\nMy favourite-marmite chicken! :D\n\n\n\n\nluscious \"yau mak\".\n\n\n\n\nSucculent shrimps. :)\n\n\n\n\nToothsome ribs for your teeth! :)\n\n\n\n\nAs usual my father-in-law would be the one who\u00a0marshaled\u00a0his orders from the menu. Altogether we satiated our crave with 5 different\u00a0scrumptious\u00a0dishes. We started our feeding frenzy with their spicy fish. Up next we had their mouth-watering, heavenly flavoursome Marmite chicken which was\u00a0undoubtedly\u00a0the best food on the table that evening. Then we had their stir-fried vegetable (salad I think?). I can't really comment on the vege as they were gone within minutes.\n\n\n\n\nDone. Buuurrppp.\n\n\n\n\nThe next dish that landed on our table was huge, spicy shrimps. I think the spicy juice really seeps into the \u00a0flesh of the shrimps. The moment your have a bite on them...OMG...the juice will immediately flow squirt out of the tender, orange flesh! \u00a0Last but not least we lick our fingers with the final dish-baked pork ribs. Yummy! These pork ribs are quite delectable too. The only downside was because it was not meaty enough....because they were ribs~mah. Ha :)\n\n\n\n\nMy father-in-law carrying little Jordan after his dinner. :)\n\n\n\n\nAll in all it was a very satisfying dinner. Partly because I got to eat the lion's share of my favourite dish-marmite chicken. Muahaha :D Most importantly all of us are happy especially my father-in-law as this is his very first birthday dinner with his very first grandson-little Jordan. We can see my father-in-law was all smile while carrying little Jordan right? I would too. More to come for sure.:) Our delicious dinner cost us around RM60 including 2 teapots of Chinese tea.

Wifey and I decided to enjoy our dinner together at Secret Recipe in Dataran Pahlawan. Like I told you in my previous post, we don't need to look at the menu to pick our food because Chicken Cordon Bleu is the best in Secret Recipe. In fact...that is the only reason why my wife and I keep on going back to Secret Recipe. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChicken Cordon Bleu anyone?\n\n\n\nSo what's your favourite food in Secret Recipe? IMHO Chicken Cordon Bleu is undeniably their best food in their entire menu. I can't find another food which is even close enough to be mentioned in the same breath as my favourite Chicken Cordon Bleu. Heck! That's why it is called as blue ribbon chicken. Made from tender chicken, juicy ham and\u00a0irresistible\u00a0cheese, Chicken Cordon Bleu is simply a plat du jour\u00a0(food) fitting for those who want finer food in life.\n\n\n\n\nMy wife and I love Chicken Cordon Bleu. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nI must confess that the chef in Dataran Pahlawan must be the best in Malacca...at least the Chicken Cordon Bleu that he/she dished out for us is the best. Once served on our table, both my wife and I couldn't help but admired at our golden brown Chicken Cordon Bleu. Then we grabbed our fork and knife...and started slicing this\u00a0gourmet's\u00a0food. At that very moment...the hot, savoury cheese started oozing out.\u00a0Now imagine those hot cheese slowly streaming down your tongue...OMG!

Perhaps it was our anniversary, the cake tasted so delicious. Moreover I also had a glass of Mocha...I think. My wife and I really enjoyed ourselves. It's good to sit together, chat and enjoyed the food that both of us love.\u00a0Later we went to watch a movie. All in all it is all about us spending quality time together. :)\n\n\n\n\nOur Chocolate Indulgence.\n\n\n\n\nSky juice and Mocha.\n\n\n\n\nI love to eat with my wife. :p\n\n\n\n\nLast but not least...have you tried Chicken Cordon Bleu before?

Not many people were there that afternoon....I guess it was too early...or people were too engrossed with those huge toys up there. This is just the second time we had Manhattan Fish Market. Our first encounter was a Lunch KLCC's Manhattan Fish Market last year.

Do you know that seafood is the main attraction in Portuguese Settlement? Yes, they have been renowned throughout Malacca or even Malaysia to serve one of the best seafood at an affordable price. I have been there once this year with my father-in-law. But today I am going to share with you a backdated post about our dining experience there. It was like...one year ago. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nPortuguese Settlement at dusk.\n\n\n\nLast year around December, my wife's sister came to pay her a visit. We just got married so she wanted to see how was my doing. So my dearest wifey and I planned where we should bring her to have her dinner that night. We were virtually clueless until we the word \"seafood\" propped up in our minds. \"Why don't we have alfresco dinner at Portuguese Settlement?\" So on that fateful Saturday night the 3 of us went to enjoy our seafood by the seaside.\n\n\n\n\nMy wife (right) and her sister.\n\n\n\n\nThe settlement is located around...10 kilometres away from our home. Once we reached there, there were several waiters waving at us while puffing their cigarettes. You see these waiters were from different seafood restaurants. So the moment patrons parked their cars, they would \"lured\" customers to their respective restaurants.\u00a0We can't really blame them as they need to make a living and it is a very competitive market after all. So be prepared to be pounced by them when you are there ok!\n\n\n\n\nThis was the restaurant which we dined.\n\n\n\n\nThere are altogether 8 different seafood restaurants. So you don't have to worry about not being able to dine here. But sometimes you do have to wait for awhile. All of these restaurants are of course operated by the local Portuguese. I don't really know which is the best but usually 88 Sea Front Restaurant is my family's main choice. After we have placed our order, we needed to wait at least half an hour for our food. So I was the one who guarded out table while my wife her sister were busy doing their sightseeing around the beach.\n\n\n\n\nMy beautiful wife and me-the beast. :D\n\n\n\n\nWe had around 5 different dishes and fruit juice. The first dish to land on our table was the\u00a0spicily\u00a0grilled seabass (siakap). The fish was perfectly grilled as we sunk our teeth into its juicy meat. I must say that the chillies blended well with the grilled fish. Yummy! Then the next dish was calamari fried with butter. Hmm....how should \u00a0I describe about the Calamari? How about crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Up next was the chicken curry. I wondered why we ordered this. Aren't we supposed to have seafood? Beats me.\n\n\n\n\nThe hot and spicy seabass!\n\n\n\n\nOur succulent calamari. How come the portion looked so little? :p\n\n\n\n\nWhy on earth did we order this chicken curry?\n\n\n\n\nKangkung? Where are the leaves?\n\n\n\n\nThe crabi-licious crabs. :D\n\n\n\n\nThey say no seafood is complete without vegetables right? And so we had a plate of kankung friend with chilly. Is it me....or this plate of kangkung was full of stems? Then last but not least...a must have for seafood diners...crabs! We ordered a large plate of dried spicy crabs. I am not a crabby kind of person, but both my wife and her twin sister were really enjoying every single parts of the crabs. I bet they sucked all the flesh and every single juice that there was on the exoskeleton of the crabs. LOL :D Well...this was what happened one year ago. Buuuuurpppp!\n\n\n\n\nLet's makan~the alfresco way of course.\n\n\n\n\nI told you they are crazy about crabs!\n\n\n\n\nDone. The bill please...\n\n\n\n\nThe waitress came and I paid the bill. Guess how much the whole dinner cost? Everything including those large juice drinks cost us around RM110. What do you think? Is it expensive? I believe it was relatively affordable because at least 5 people could have joined us to enjoy the food that we ordered. The portions are really huge. And it is really a great place for family outing as it is just beside the sea. Nothing beats enjoying the food while being close to nature-ocean. :)\n\n\n\n\nSluuurpppp! I love my watermelon juice!\n\nSo if you were to drop by in Malacca and was thinking about where to dine for dinner? Why not going alfresco at Portuguese Settlement? I am sure you will enjoy your time here.

Finally my golden brown Chicken Cordon Blue is here.\n\n\n\nYou think you can make your own Chicken Cordon Blue? Great! There are several methods to prepare Chicken Cordon Bleu. The easiest is to create a layered dish with chicken on the bottom, mostly cooked, with the ham and cheese added at the end of the cooking process to be warmed and melted. For those of you might be trying to make a more heavy version of Chicken Cordon Bleu, you will prefer this preparation, because it can be baked rather than fried. Beside that you can also slice a hole in the chicken, insert that sumptuous cheese, and wrap the stuffed chicken in ham fry or bake it. Yummy!\n\n\n\n\n\nJust look at it. Can your resist this heaven-sent meal?\n\n\n\n\n\nLook a the hot, overflowing cheese...\n\n\n\nOMG! I am actually salivating already. If you think you can make you own Chicken Cordon Bleu, go ahead and try it on you own. Here's a recipe of the Chicken Cordon Bleu. But if you are like me, who prefer to let the expert do the job...go to your nearest Secret Recipe (in Malaysia) to enjoy this scrumptious meal. Oh~no! I think I can't control my urge anymore. I gotta sink my fangs into this blue ribbon chicken tomorrow.

To all the dads who have whole-heartedly labored and worked hard for your family, you deserve a pat on your back. Hereby, I wanna take this opportunity yo thank my loving father for giving his all to this family of mine. Without my daddy's sacrifice, we wouldn't be having such a bright and colorful future right now. He is both my brother and my idol. He is our inspirational figure which we look up to since we were still a totting kids. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHere we are!\n\n\n\nNow let's talk about how we celebrated our Father's Day shall we? We were supposed to take our dad out for dinner today but instead we did it last evening because my brother would be going back today. This father's day, we decided to roam Jusco Melaka to see what daddy wanna eat. So what we had? A~ha! For our dinner, we had our sumptuous meals at Kenny Rogers Restaurant. Kenny Rogers is daddy's all-time favourite place to eat. Actually all of us love dining at Kenny Rogers. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nReady to \"rumble\"?\n\n\n\n\n\nBut first let's pick what we wanna eat!\n\n\n\nEach of us had a Kenny Rogers' Quarter Meal. All of us ordered the black peppered flavoured quarter chicken. Of course each of us will have the usual complimentary 3 side dishes and 1 Kenny Roger's home-made muffin. So the first things that were served were the muffins: 2 Chocolate & 2 Vanilla muffins. Hmm...look rather...\"punctured\" to me. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nAww....the home-made muffins!\n\n\n\n\n\nDaddy is ready to gobble his chocolate muffin.\n\n\n\nA few minutes later, our quarter chicken dishes were served. Itadakimasu. *Chom! Chom! Chom!* All of us were pretty hungry by then. :p I love my aromatic rice, cheesy macaroni and mashed potatoes with the hot tempting gravy. Aww..the fragrance aromatic rice had me salivating even before my taste buds were able to touch it yet. The mashed potatoes...the texture...was simply marvelous. The cheesy macaroni is really scrummy. If you are a big cheese fan like me, you will savor the moment the cheese melts in your mouth. Heavenly! And of course the black peppered chicken is the best. Sinking your teeth into it will surely give you that unmistakable sensation...\n\n\n\n\n\nOk, it is the main course time.\n\n\n\n\n\nTa~da! Our quarter meal!\n\n\n\nBurrpp...Gochisosama Deshita! The whole meals cost around RM80. Hmm...our dinner at Kenny Rogers was a wee expensive considering that we didn't order any drinks at all. Must be the service tax. Anyway...are you curious why didn't have any drinks while dining at Kenny Rogers? That is because the drinks were dear and we actually had another stop to make which was...\n\n\n\n\n\nDaddy's first time in Coffee Bean.\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's coffee time.\n\n\n\nCoffee Bean! Yep! My brother decided to bring daddy to Coffee Bean to enjoy a cup of luxury coffee. This is the very first time my father had ventured into Coffee Bean. Daddy was obviously beaming with joy. After all, he had never ever dream that he could be in Coffee Bean one day sipping his premium Cappuccino. After all of us had placed our orders, we picked a posh sate to comfort our butts while enjoying every single sip of our java. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nDaddy with his raw sugar. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBro had...I don't know...iced blended hazel coffee? Both me and my dad tried Coffee Bean's Cappuccino, whilst my wife had her hot vanilla. Hmm...it was certainly a great moment. Basking in the comfy ambiance with the smooth aroma of our coffee making its way into our nasal. A historic for daddy and surely it must be one enjoyable Father's Day dinner for him. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nCan you see the \"extra\" stuff on top of my coffee?\n\n\n\n\n\nOuh~oh! *gulp*\n\n\n\nI ordered the same drink as daddy-Cappuccino...but...I have added a few extra toppings...chocolate powder, vanilla powder, and cinnamon powder! Cinnamon??? That's why my Cappuccino tasted so different. Haha :D Anyway the main thing is that we really had a great time. Quality family time. :) We were there for quite some time before we charted our way back home.

As for me and my dearest wife, both of us decided to switch off all the lights and unnecessary appliances at home and hit the road. We stopped at Mahkota Parade and see what we should have for our dinner. I was impressed to see that quite a number of shop lots actually switched off their lamps. My wife and I scoured the whole shopping complex to hunt for our dinner!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYeah! I peri-fy our lives yesterday!\n\n\n\nIn the end, we chose Nandos. Why? I don't know, perhaps it was so dimly-lit that we thought it was fitting for the earth hour moment. :) Moreover it's been more than a year since my missus and I had some peri-peri chicken. The menu came and we picked 3 different dishes to gratify our palates. As for beverage, I had bottomless coke and my wife had bottomless iced lemon tea. Why bottomless? Well...because all our dishes would be in extra hot peri-peri flavour!\n\n\n\n\n\nReally! We dined at Nandos!\n\n\n\n\n\nThis candle lighten up our dinner.\n\n\n\nWe waited and waited and waited...and finally the waiter came. Yay! He came and...tell us that we had to WAIT another 15 minutes because they ran out of gas! Seriously it happened but wifey and I had no qualms about waiting for another 15 minutes. I took out the camera and toyed around with it while waiting for our peri-peri dish!\n\n\n\n\n\nOur bottomless drinks.\n\n\n\n13 minutes 56 seconds later dinner was served! Ready for a Peri-fying dinner folks? Jom makan! Our first dish was the Extra hot peri-peri half chicken with rice. I added the peeper and the extra hot peri-peri chilly sauce to my chicken and rice to make super spicy. Indeed it was really spicy, so much so that my lips were literally simmered. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nHUGE! This is my portion.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy feathers were ruffled alright!\n\n\n\nThen came our Peri Starter Pack. What a name for a dish huh! So what's in this starter pack? There were Peri wedges sprinkled with spicy pepper and the tender, juicy grilled chicken sausages. The wedges were so hot and so delicious whilst the sausages were very flavorful! I savored every bite of them!\n\n\n\n\n\nOur Peri Starter Pack!\n\n\n\nPeri Soup and Bread which was supposed to be our appetizer came last as our dessert! I had to remind them about this dish. Perhaps there was some confusion going on? Anyway this dish really took me by surprise. Why would I say that? Because I thought the soup was just another normal mushroom soup. The moment I tasted the soup that my wife spoon-fed me, I immediately asked her to shovel more into my watering mouth. This is not your ordinary mushroom soup. This people of Nandos has thrown lots of ingredients into this Peri Soup. There was a lot of chicken shreds, mushrooms and chillies. And the breads were the perfect complement for it. Yuuuuuuumy! :D\n\n\n\n\n\nYou have to taste it.\n\n\n\n\n\nGarlic bread-simply delicious.\n\n\n\nWe took one and a half hour to gobble everything up. Buuurrpppp. After that me and my wife had some difficulty trying to unseat ourselves. We were not that mobile already, must be those peri-peri chicken. Ha :D We really enjoyed ourselves.

The phone's battery lasts for a long time, so it can be used normally for up to 4 days on a single charge. It also has a 5W feature that lets users charge other devices, like cell phones or electronic watches. This makes it a great thing to carry when you're in the woods or doing other outdoor activities. So it doubles up as your power bank!Mega 8,150 mAh Battery LifeThe Ulefone Armour X11 features a 5.45-inch, HD+ (720x1440 pixel) display with a full-screen design. Providing users with vivid images and immersive visuals. While reading messages, perusing content, or playing games, users can experience smooth scrolling and enhanced clarity. However, I do feel that the screen size is a bit of a missed opportunity. Then again, I understand that this is a tradeoff to make it lighter and more compact.5.45-inch HD+ DisplayUnder the hood, the Ulefone Power Armour X11 is powered by a MediaTek Helio A22 CPU, which makes sure that it will always be buttery smooth and snappy. With the latest version of Android 13, we can also enjoy better security features to make sure we are in safe hands. The phone comes with 4GB of RAM, and you can add another 4GB of RAM in the form of virtual RAM. This is a bummer! Again, I think the company should have doubled the RAM to 8GM to make it more usable, no?Ulefone Power Armor X11 PhotographyIt is a shame that Ulefone Power Armor X11 only comes with 32GB of internal storage. Though expandable storage is supported with a microSD card of up to 256GB capacity, it is still not enough if you ask me. The Armour X11 incorporates NFC technology, allowing for convenient mobile payments. Its 3-card port permits the simultaneous use of two SIM cards and a microSD card with 256GB of storage. In addition, a customised button on the side of the device provides fast access to the Push-to-Talk feature or frequently used tools and applications, thereby enhancing convenience and productivity.Ulefone Power Armor X11 Specs and FeaturesWatch\u00a0Ulefone Power Armor X11 in Action!The Ulefone Power Armor X11 Armour X11 is currently on sale on AliExpress for US$119.99, which is less than its original price of US$299.98. You can get this great deal by taking advantage of this limited-time offer. All in all, I honestly believe that this smartphone can be a great spare phone for you. Unfortunately, its limited RAM and storage make it less ideal to be used for a lot of situations. Then again, do bear in mind that this is a rugged smartphone built for the outdoors and extreme.

Now you can do so with a toy car as well. Behold the SNT Micro FPC car. For the uninitiated, FPV means First Person View. So by adding a front-facing camera to an RC (Radio-Controlled) toy car. It streams video directly to the driver's headset. This is a fantastic way to enhance the immersive experience of driving an RC car thanks to SNT (Sniclo Turbo).SNT Micro FPV Car: First-Person RC RacingIf you ask me, everything is pretty easy peasy here. There's no steep learning curve about this amazing SNT Micro FPV Car. They just put a camera on top of a tiny RC car, which lets you drive it and see everything in front of it from your point of view. Even though we don't think a first-person view is the best way to watch a micro RC race (the courses aren't that big, so you can see the whole track from one place), it is a good way to race those small RCs on a bigger track.The SNT Micro FPV Car essentially combines the company's SNT-C12006 micro RC racer with a magnetic camera that attaches to the roof and an FPV goggle for relaying the camera's first-person footage. This sounds like a lot of fun if you ask me.1:24-scale Car With a Camera Mounted on the TopComplete with signal lights!The RC car is a standard 1:24-scale vehicle that, according to the manufacturer, features a proportional steering system for incredibly precise control and a high-torque gearbox for agile performance, as well as independent front shock absorption, simulation tires, and gyroscopic stabilization for stable driving on virtually any type of track. It includes functional headlamps, turn signals, reverse lights, brake lights, and even ambient lights for effect, as well as a USB-C-rechargeable battery.A Whole New Level of RC RacingJust like you driving a real car!On the other hand, there are two kinds of cameras: SD and HD. Always go for the best specs if you ask me. Both have a 130-degree wide-angle lens so you can see a large part of the track and any obstacles ahead. They also have a magnetic base so you can just snap them on the roof of your mini RC car. It's made to instantly connect to the goggles that come with it when it's used, so you should get transmission as soon as the RC car is ignited.Competition-Grade Camera For Live StreamingImmersive First-person View RC RacingThe GQ2 FPV goggles included with the SNT Micro FPV Car use dual-antenna reception to ensure consistent signal transmission at all times, and the outfit promises a video transmission latency of approximately 28ms. The goggles\u00a0are equipped with HD Fresnel lenses, plush padding, and a rechargeable battery. It comes with a customized FPV handwheel remote dubbed the AIR5 for controlling the vehicle's acceleration, direction, headlights, ambient light, and FPV power. It uses standard AAA/18650 batteries for power.SNT Micro FPV Car Specs and FeaturesWatch\u00a0SNT Micro FPV Car in ActionIf you don't like FPV goggles, the company also sells a package with a fixed Wi-Fi camera that lets you control the RC with an app on your phone. All of the FPV feed is sent straight to the app, so racing your micro RC can feel like playing a first-person racing game on your phone. For the SNT Micro FPV Car, there is a Kickstarter campaign going on right now. You can pay as little as US$99 to own a unit right now.

Since the introduction of the Moto G Stylus 3 years ago, I believe it has been a good alternative for Samsung's expensive flagship devices with an S Pen. The Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G (2023) is a mid-range device. It is also one of the first to feature Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset, with the company pledging performance that is 20% faster than that of the previous year's model.Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G (2023) With Snapdragon 6 Gen 1The 2023 model of Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G has a smaller 6.6-inch 1080p LCD screen with a refresh rate of 120Hz which I think is not bad. If you enjoy watching dramas and movies using a smartphone, you will appreciate its stereo speakers that support Dolby Atmos. It doesn't have an IP rating for security, but Motorola has said it has a \"water-repellant\" design to keep it safe from spills, splashes, and light rain.6.6-inch Display With Dolby Atmos SpeakersCompared to MediaTek's Helio G88 from the previous year, the latest Motorola Moto G Stylus is powered by a Qualcomm SoC which packs more processing capabilities. This is coupled with up to 6GB of RAM, 256GB of internal storage, and a microSD card slot that supports expansions of up to 2TB. This is something that a lot of so-called expensive flagship smartphones are lacking-expandable storage and it is a plus point for me.In terms of photography, the Motorola Moto G Stylus sports a 50MP main rear camera, but it doesn't have OIS like last year. It also has an 8MP ultra-wide lens and a 16MP selfie camera in the notch. It has a 3.5mm speaker jack and supports 5G, NFC, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.1, and Wi-Fi Direct. Can't believe that we still have an earphone jack in 202. Unlike Samsung's S Pen, the built-in pen still can't sense pressure or connect to other devices which is understandable.Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G (2023) CamerasThe Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G (2023) is juiced by a huge 5,000mAh battery that supports 20W wired charging. In addition, the phone includes Android 13 with Motorola's MyUX overlay and a side-mounted biometric reader. Additionally, Motorola guarantees one OS version upgrade and three years of security support.More Storage and Battery PowerWatch the Advert for\u00a0Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G (2023)The 6GB+256GB model of the Moto G Stylus 5G (2023) comes with a price tag of US$499\u00a0 (RM2,299) and comes in colours of Black and Rose Champagne.

Behold the new Philips 23-Inch Monitor With an Extra 13.3-Inch E INK Screen. Well, an E INK display has yet to totally replace our colourful LCDs, but now Philips is giving us a hybrid display system combining the best of both worlds.Philips 23-Inch Monitor With an Extra 13.3-Inch E INK ScreenBut there are clear benefits to using e-paper, especially when it comes to applications that don't need to be updated often. This rather radical\u00a0Philips 23-Inch monitor combines your ordinary LCD display together with another 13.3-inch e-paper display directly by its side. From afar, both these separate screens look like a complete display. I'm sure there will be a lot of applications and use cases for such a hybrid desktop monitor.In a side-by-side configuration, this monitor combines a landscape LCD panel and a portrait e-paper display. With this configuration, you can use the LCD for common computing duties. You have the option of transferring documents and other reading materials to the e-paper portion, allowing you to read PDF files, text-heavy websites, and lengthy lines of code while protecting your eyes.Two Displays on One Single StandThis eye-opening\u00a0Philips 23-Inch monitor with an extra E INK screen is supported by just one single stand. On the left, you will get the 23.8-inch IPS display while the 13.3-inch E-Ink Carta e-paper screen extends directly to the right. The LCD has a screen of 2,560 x 1,440, a 16:9 aspect ratio, and a refresh rate of 75Hz, so it should work like any other work monitor. It also has 99.8% sRGB colour coverage, a maximum brightness of 250 lumens, and a reaction time of 4 ms. On the other hand, the E-Ink display has a resolution of 1,200 x 1,600, a colour temperature system (so you can reduce the amount of blue light), and full front lights to make it easy to read in low light.Equipped With\u00a045 Degrees HingeThe hybrid Philips Monitor has a hinge that links the two panels. This hinge lets the e-paper display fold in up to 45 degrees, so you can play around with the setup to find the best angle for reading. The e-paper panel comes with an app called Smart Remote that lets you change the text size (it has nine sizes), change the text contrast (it has four options), search for documents, and turn pages.\u00a0 You can also easily zoom and pan your display by taking advantage of the buttons at the bottom. There are also four USB ports, which we think can be used to charge different devices. The monitor works with both Windows and Mac. However, the Smart Remote app is only available on Windows.Unfortunately, the Philips 23-Inch Monitor With an Extra 1.3-inch E INK Screen is only available in selected countries only. Therefore, if it is not extensively available in your country, you can always directly import it from retailers such as Good Ereader, which sells it for US$1,599.99 (RM7,399). It is a bit pricey but I am sure my PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 can serve as a good secondary display as well for my laptop.

If yes, you will love this Bird Buddy Smart Bird Bath with live video streaming of birds. Bird Buddy was introduced in 2020 with the intention of simplifying backyard birdwatching, as it incorporated a camera into a bird feeder so that you could observe backyard visitors as they went about their business without disturbing them. The Bird Buddy Smart Bird Bath aims to expand your birdwatching arsenal by adding a similarly camera-equipped watering site for birds to visit.Smart Bird Bath With Live Video Streaming of BirdsLike the outfit's bird feeder, the bath is something you can put in your yard to attract birds and keep them there for a while, so you can watch them in their natural state. Want to see birds clean themselves in the water? You can do that with this thing. How about watching them get thirsty in the hot summer? Should also work. Heck, you can probably see them make friends, fight, and act out a feathered version of the soap operas that happen all the time in the animal world.The Bird Buddy's removable camera module is housed in a decorative house-like figure on one section of the Smart Bird Bath. The basin does not have a direct connection to your home's water supply, so you will need to manually refill it on a regular basis. However, they do offer a pump and solar roof combination that can be used to keep the water in the bowl moving. Why would you do such a thing? Apparently, this makes the water more appealing to birds and reduces algae growth, allowing the water to remain much clearer for a longer period of time. In addition to powering the pump, the solar roof can discharge energy into your camera's battery.Comes With a Removable CameraWhen it comes to the camera, it has the same removable section as the bird feeders made by the same company. That means it can record HD video with a 120-degree field of view and full sound from the built-in mic, so you can watch and hear what's going on in the tub. It can also take 5MP pictures.Watch Birds Taking Bath LiveThe camera on the Smart Bird Bath has AI technology that lets it know when birds are actually in the shot. When this happens, it can send you an alert in case you want to watch what happens next. Even better, it can tell the difference between more than 700 kinds of birds (and counting), so it can tell you about the birds playing in your backyard bath. The AI can even control the focus and zoom of the camera, so it can zoom in on a view it thinks you'll like.You Will Never Miss a Moment of Your Feathered BuddiesKnow your visitors!In case you want a freestanding structure to install the bird bath in your outdoor space, the company also sells a pole mounting system in addition to the bird bath. If you want to attract more of these tiny, brightly-coloured birds to your property, they're also introducing a feeder designed specifically for hummingbirds. Currently, a Bird Buddy Smart Bird Bath Kickstarter campaign is active. Each unit of the Smart Bird Bath with live video streaming of birds can be reserved for pledges beginning at US$184 (RM849).

Not anymore especially with the introduction of the Asus ROG Ally handheld gaming console. Before this, the Steam Deck by Valve altered our conception of how PC gaming can appear on a transportable device. As a result, it is not surprising that a large number of handheld gaming PCs have followed in its footsteps. The Asus ROG Ally is the most recent handheld gaming device to enter the market, and I believe it is capable of competing with Valve's hardware.Asus ROG Ally-1080p 60FPS Gaming HandheldIt's not simply another cloud-based gaming handheld like the Steam Deck; rather, it's a real, fully-functional gaming PC in the same vein as that device. However, rather than running a flavour of Linux, it operates a full build of Windows 11, which means that you may use it with any games or software that you would normally run on your desktop computer.Stunning 7-inch DisplayThe Asus ROG Ally is a mobile gaming device with a 7-inch screen and a gamepad with analogue sticks that point in different directions, a D-pad in the shape of a disc, four action buttons, and small system buttons. It has two shoulder buttons, two triggers, and two paddles on the back, so it has all the features you'd expect from a modern controller. The screen has a 1080p resolution and a pixel density of 314ppi, which Asus says is double that of a 32-inch 4K display. This means that it shows a lot of information in a small amount of screen space.\u00a0 The screen also has a frame rate of 120 Hz, support for multiple touches, and AMD's FreeSync Premium technology.Powered by AMD Ryzen Z1 ExtremeExtreme raw power at your fingertips!Under the hood, Asus ROG Ally is powered by AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme consisting of eight individual cores. The processor is powered by 16 threads and boasts an amazing graphics performance of\u00a0 8.6 teraflops. AMD's RDNA 3 engine is used as the backbone, complemented by in-house upscaling technologies namely RSR and FSR. Thanks to this combination of raw powers, Asus ROG Ally graphics power can easily match those of game consoles!Play Games With Amazing Graphics With Asus ROG AllyBesides the jaw-dropping main processor, Asus ROG Ally also comes with 16GB of DDR5 RAM, 512GB of SSD storage, and a microSD card slot for additional storage on the entry-level model, with higher-end models anticipated to be released later. I always believe that anything with expandable memory is always golden.Play Games on Your Own or With Your FriendsThe Asus ROG Ally is rumoured to be capable of running games such as FIFA 23, Moving Out, and Street Fighter V at over 60 frames per second, as well as attaining comparable performance in a number of story-driven single-player AAA titles. You can also connect it to any of the company's external GPU systems (Asus ROG XG Mobile eGPU) for desktop-level performance in more demanding titles.Asus ROG Ally Features and SpecsIn addition, it includes dual front-facing speakers with Smart Amp technology and Dolby Atmos virtual 5.1.2-channel surround sound. The fact that it runs Windows 11 in its entirety and has a high-resolution display suggests that the battery won't last very long between charges. On the plus side, it comes with a 65W USB-C power adapter that charges the battery from 0 to 50% in 30 minutes.What Else Can You Do With Asus ROG Ally?You can even watch Youtube videos!Even though the handheld is small, it has a built-in cooling system called \"Zero Gravity\" that uses two fans, a heat pipe, ultra-thin heatsink fins, and two air intakes with dust screens. Armoury Crate SE, which is Asus's own game launcher, a light weight of just 608 grams, a built-in mic, and a fingerprint reader for Windows Hello are some of the other features.

From St James Power Station, Singapore, Chief Technology Officer, John Churchill unveiled the new technologies whilst giving a glimpse into Dyson\u2019s vision of the future of clean homes, borne of decades of expertise in filtration, airflow, motors, software and robotics.\u201cRobotics, sensing, intelligence, these are all areas that are typically considered \u2018future technology\u2019 but at Dyson, they have long been part of product development. Our engineers have, and continue, to employ these technologies to reduce the cognitive burden on our owners, saving time, energy and effort in maintaining a healthy home \u2013 a true set-and-forget mindset. Our future vision is of a home that can look after itself. The new technologies launched today are the embodiment of this \u2013 the most powerful robotic vacuum cleaner, intelligent, large-room purification, and, for active cleaning, new cordless vacuums and cleaner head technologies that offer adaptive, multifunctional cleaning when and where you need it.\u201d \u2013 John Churchill, Chief Technology Officer, DysonIn the last year, there has been a significant reduction in the number of people maintaining regular cleaning schedules, yet we still spend 25 minutes a week, the equivalent of 65 hours per year, vacuuming our homes. Sensing, software and automation sit at the heart of these new machines. By understanding the surroundings and the task at hand, a product, whether a vacuum or purifier, can automatically respond to tackle the challenge most effectively. This starts with intelligent, accurate sensors and relies heavily on embedded software, electronics and automation, as well as core mechanical technologies like motors, filtration and pick-up to tackle the task at hand, properly.Dyson's Core TechnologiesEnhanced sensors and software elevate the performance enabling a different, more efficient way of cleaning. The Dyson 360 Vis Nav robot vacuum has sensors that detect the edges of a room, and redirect suction through a side-actuator for precision edge cleaning \u2013 solving one of the biggest challenges for any robot \u2013 edge cleaning. Its high-level processor thinks and adapts, capable of pinpointing its position to within 71mm.Dyson cordless vacuum technology uses acoustic piezo sensors to count and categorise dust particles, informing owners via LCD screen when to move on, or continue cleaning. These readings also determine the suction power required for the task, automatically adjusting power levels.The Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde has integrated sensors. A unique Dyson algorithm cross-checks data every second, analysing the air in the room, automatically switching on purification when pollutant levels rise, and switching off once the space is thoroughly cleaned. A unique solid-state sensor precisely detects formaldehyde, without being confused by other VOCs.Software embedded in Dyson machines can help reduce owner frustration. Sensors in the Dyson Gen5detec vacuum monitor the motor\u2019s speed, power and temperature. Alongside a re-engineered UI, this helps Owners to identify and troubleshoot potential issues, maintaining their machines independently. Over-the-air software updates ensure machines automatically upgrade to the latest features and fixes.Dyson has been developing its own motor technology since 2004, investing more than \u00a3350m to date into research, laboratories, specialist teams and manufacturing capabilities. Dyson\u2019s fifth-generation Hyperdymium motor is smaller, faster and more powerful than its predecessors, spinning at up to 135,000rpm \u2013 nine times faster than a Formula One engine. Powering the Dyson Gen5detect cordless vacuum, the fifth generation Dyson Hyperdymium motor drives powerful suction for high-quality cleaning performance, delivering 262 air watts of suction.Separating particles from airflow or filtration has been at the centre of Dyson products for 30 years. During that time, Dyson has invested in laboratories and test rigs that measure filtration efficacy not only of the filter as industry standards stipulate but also at the full-machine level, developing entirely new test methods in both floorcare and air purification. Dyson vacuums offer five stages of fully sealed filtration, from cyclonic separation in the vacuum bin to the cyclone pack, filtration mesh and pre- and post-motor filters to effectively separate different sizes of debris. In Dyson Purifiers, three filters combine for highly effective indoor purification, trapping particles as small as 0.1 microns in a glass HEPA media, capturing gas pollutants and absorbing NO2, and continuously destroying formaldehyde at a molecular level.HEPA H13 refers to a standard filter made from HEPA media. Full-machine HEPA H13 filtration means that what goes in, stays in; it refers to the performance of the whole product \u2013 no leaky airflow pathways, no gaps allowing in dirty air, purified air exits the machine. The Dyson 360 Vis Nav robotic vacuum, Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde and Dyson HEPA Big+Quiet purifier are all tested to whole-machine HEPA H13 standard. The Dyson Gen5detect cordless vacuum and the latest Dyson purifiers are also proven to capture viruses.Dyson New Products Review1. Dyson 360 Vis Nav Robotic VacuumThe Dyson 360 Vis Nav robotic vacuum marks Dyson\u2019s next step in intelligent robotic vacuum cleaners: the most powerful robot vacuum with six times the suction of any other. Engineered with unique Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) technology, the Dyson 360 Vis Nav has a 360-degree, vision system with a fish-eye hemispheric lens which remembers where it has been, sees where to clean, and is intelligent enough to create dust maps of your home. The high-level processor collects data from 26 sensors for a range of tasks, including dust detection, obstacle avoidance and wall detection, to clean right to the edge.It features a new, full-width triple-action brush bar: for hard floors, soft \u2018Fluffy\u2019 nylon for large debris pick-up and anti-static carbon fibre filaments to remove fine dust, and stiff nylon bristles to dig into carpets. Dual-link suspension allows the machine to climb up to 21mm, and its low profile lets it clean under furniture up to 99mm. After its 50 minutes of run-time, the machine will automatically return to its dock to recharge. The MyDyson app provides deep cleaning reports after each clean.\u201cRobotic vacuum cleaners should be highly effective machines that intelligently clean your home, so you don\u2019t have to. Enabling these autonomous cleaners relies on highly complex algorithms, visual interpretation, dust-sensing capabilities and powerful motor technology. Dyson engineers have taken everything we\u2019ve learnt from developing our vacuum cleaners, combined it with intelligent software, to develop the Dyson 360 Vis Nav \u2013 the most powerful intelligent robot vacuum cleaner.\" \u2013 Jake Dyson, Chief Engineer2. Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde Air PurifierThe Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde is designed specifically for large, open-plan spaces, with the Dyson HEPA Big+Quiet purifier engineered specifically for simplicity in shared, commercial spaces. New Cone Aerodynamics delivers a 10-metre projection and a new CO2\u00a0sensor indicates when to ventilate. Alongside its powerful projection, the Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet is engineered to operate quietly, producing just 56 decibels of noise - making it our quietest yet most powerful purifier.The five-year HEPA H13 particle filter traps up to 99.95% of ultrafine particles, whilst the new K-Carbon filter removes gas pollutants and 3x more NO2.

One such Casio smartwatch is the Casio G-Shock DW H5600. Casio Malaysia has recently announced on its website that its latest hybrid smartwatch, the G-Shock G-SQUAD DW-H5600.Casio G-Shock DW H5600 Hybrid SmartwatchThis new hybrid smartwatch from Casio had landed on our Malaysian shores. As you may recall, the collection is a special modernised update to the classic G-Shock DW-5600 model, incorporating numerous cutting-edge technologies such as an integrated heart rate sensor and more. If you a big fan of the Casio G-Shock but want something more sophisticated and modern, then this hybrid watch is for you.The Casio G-Shock DW H5600 Hybrid Smartwatch has the same style as the watch that it was based on, but there are some changes to make room for the new smart features that it has. First of all, it has a new mono MIP LCD screen with an LED backlight and an updated interface with power, heart rate, and message indicators. Also new is a back plate made of stainless steel with a charging port, optical health tracking sensors driven by the world-renowned Polar, a built-in rechargeable battery, and support for solar charging.Designed Based on the Original Casio G-Shock DWH5600Available in three distinct models, each of the Casio G-Shock DW H5600 will sport a unique finish. One of these models will be a limited special edition release. The first model in the set is the DW-H5600-1, which comes with the trademark shock-resistant resin body of the brand in a single black colour. In contrast, the DW-H5600MB comes with a stainless steel bezel and is offered in both black and blue colour options.1. Casio G-Shock DW H5600-1 Hybrid SmartwatchThe final hybrid smartwatch of the\u00a0Casio G-Shock DW H5600 series is the DW-H5600EX-1. It sports an identical build as the previous model but has drafting line patterns throughout its body and straps. Casio claims that these patterns were inspired by the technical drawings for the DW-5000C, the very first G-Shock watch. That's a very good reason to get your hands on this third model, no?2. Casio G-Shock DW H5600MB-1 Hybrid SmartwatchAll three Casio G-Shock DW-H5600 models are equipped with four activity tracking features: running, walking, gym workout, and interval timer. They also have several health monitoring features, such as heart rate, blood oxygen, sleep, step count, and calorie intake. Even though it can link to smartphones via Bluetooth, keep in mind that it only supports simple watch settings, automatic time and distance correction, phone finder functionality and world time. That means messages that come in only show a notification, not a snippet of text.3. Casio G-Shock DW H5600EX-1 Hybrid SmartwatchCasio claims the G-Shock DW H5600 hybrid smartwatch has a battery life of up to 35 hours with the heart rate monitor activated. This is really a bummer if you ask me. With heart rate monitoring turned off, the battery could stretch to one month and you will get a whopping 11 months of battery juice in Power Saving mode. It is a shame that its heart rate tracker drains so much battery. I wish this \"flaw\" could be improved in the future.Can Be Charged Using Solar PowerInterestingly, Casio G-Shock DW H5600 Hybrid Smartwatch has solar charging capabilities, but it should be noted that this is merely a secondary charging method intended for minor top-ups. Still, it is a very novel add-on to a smartwatch. In fact, more smartwatches should have this solar charging ability. When connected to the proprietary cable, it is estimated that the hybrid smartwatch takes approximately three hours to fully charge.Casio G-Shock DW H5600 Hybrid Smartwatch PriceAll three versions of the new Casio G-Shock DW H5600 Hybrid Smartwatch are now available in Malaysia through the official Casio online shop and authorised distributors all over the country. The normal Casio G-Shock DW H5600-1 model will come with a price tag of RM1,345, the DW H5600MB model will cost RM1,395, and the special edition Casio G-Shock DW H5600EX-1 model will be the most expensive with a price tag of RM1,995.

You can now grab a Samsung Galaxy A24 to Malaysia with a price tag of only RM999 and receive the same software support guarantee as the flagship Galaxy S23 series.Samsung Galaxy A24 Comes With 5 Years of Security UpdatesThe brand-new Samsung Galaxy A24 sports a huge 6.5-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED display with an Infinity-U teardrop notch on top. This screen can also reach a maximum brightness of 1,000nits and a frame rate of 90Hz. The device is powered by a MediaTek Helio G99 processor. It has 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, and you can add up to 1TB more storage if you want to. However, it's also important to note that this smartphone is not equipped with 5G-enabled. This could be a deal-breaker for a lot of people.Samsung Galaxy A24 Specs and FeaturesSamsung Galaxy A24's greatest feature may not be its hardware, but rather its software support. It ships with Android 13 pre-installed and One UI 5.1 skinned. Samsung guarantees four Android OS upgrades and five years of security support with the Galaxy A24, so you could theoretically use it until Android 17 is released, and then use it for an additional year with the assurance that you will continue to receive critical security updates. In terms of software support, the Galaxy A24, a sub-RM1,000 device, is on par with the Galaxy S23 Ultra.Samsung Galaxy A24 CamerasShutterbugs will appreciate the cameras of the Samsung Galaxy A24.

This is a 2-in-1 smartwatch that has been crafted perfectly. In fact, this is Huawei's very first smartwatch with incorporated earbuds, which will launch in Malaysia on 11 May 2023. I have personally seen a lot of smartwatches with integrated earbuds from other companies of smaller scales. Hence, it is a long time coming for one of the top dogs.Huawei Watch Buds-Where Smartwatch and Earbuds CombineIn summary, the smartwatch portion of the Huawei Watch Buds measures 47 x 47.5 x 14.99 mm and features a 1.43-inch AMOLED colour touchscreen with a resolution of 466 x 466 pixels. Encased in a stainless steel case, the smartwatch is attached with 22m leather straps. You can choose to have the straps in Khaki or Black colour. I personally prefer black as it looks more professional. According to its listing on Huawei's official website, only the latter option is currently available. In addition, numerous sensors, including heart rate, bone conduction, and others, are onboard and used for its health and sports monitoring features.Huge 1.43-inch AMOLED Touchscreen DisplayNext are the built-in earbuds, which fit nicely in the secret compartment under the display of the wearable. This is different from similar devices like the AiPower Wearbuds, which store audio devices on either side. This gives the Huawei Watch Buds a more standard and less bulky smartwatch shape. The earbuds themselves are held on by magnets under the screen, which is also where they will charge when not in use. By hitting the button on the right side of the wearable, you can open the top half of its case and get them out.Watch Buds With ANCThe audio half of the Watch Buds is shaped like a bullet on both sides. It has full-range planar diaphragm units and touch controls that let you control playing and other things by tapping the earbuds or the front or back of your ears. It also has active noise cancellation (ANC) technology and comes with three different sizes of ear tips. Huawei says that the IP54 rating only applies to the earbuds and not to the watch itself. It is a shame that the smartwatch is not getting the needed protection but it can't be helped.Huawei Watch Buds Battery LifeOn paper, the battery life of the Huawei Watch Buds smartwatch is limited to three days with regular use.\u00a0 This is acceptable though a bit short. The earbuds are claimed to be capable of mustering up to four hours of playback without ANC and three hours with the feature enabled. Again, this is expected due to the rare designs of the earbuds which come together with (underneath) the smartwatch.Music and Health Experts on Your WristThe Huawei Watch Buds come with a price tag of RM 2,199, according to the description on Huawei's official store on Lazada. As a special promotion for the launch of this novel smartwatch plus earbuds combo, Huawei is giving early birds coupons (RM 100 through the official Huawei online store and RM 200 through Lazada) that can be used to pre-order the earbuds-smartwatch combo until May 11, 2023, for an even lower price.

About a year and a half after the first release of the flagship Mavic 3 drone, DJI has now unveiled a freshly updated \"Pro\" version of the aircraft, which boasts not two but three cameras in place of the previous model's two.DJI Mavic 3 Pro With Triple Hasselblad Cameras Has ArrivedThe new DJI Mavic 3 Pro and its slightly more movie-magic-focused counterpart, the Mavic 3 Pro Cine, will be released next month with a new triple-camera system that incorporates the four-thirds Hasselblad camera from the previous model. Similar to a standard Mavic 3, this brand new DJI Mavic 3 Pro is equipped with a 24mm lens, a 166mm Zoom Camera for accurate framing as well as a 70mm medium-telephoto camera. Speaking about the holy trinity of cameras, no?The maximum quality of the Mavic 3 Pro's Hasselblad camera is still 5.1K at up to 50 fps, and it can do slow-mo at 120 fps with DCI 4K mode. On a 1/1.3\" CMOS sensor, the new 3x camera can shoot film at 4K/60fps and take photos with up to 48 megapixels. Lastly, the Mavic 3 Pro's camera now has a wider f/3.4 lens (it used to be f/4.4) and can record 4K video at 60 frames per second.The\u00a0Triple Hasselblad Cameras of DJI Mavic 3 ProThe Mavic 3 Pro has a maximum flight duration of 43 minutes, compared to 46 minutes on the Mavic 3 standard. However, these figures imply that you are not using DJI's APAS 5.0 obstacle avoidance technology and that you are not recording video, both of which can reduce flight time.DJI Mavic 3 Pro Has a Max Flight Time of 43 MinutesIf it ain's broken do not fix it and that is why the Mavic 3 Pro retains a lot of features from its predecessor which include DJI's \"OccuSync\" O3+ technology. Thanks to this feature, you can easily transfer files to your smartphone with speeds of up to 80 MB per second over Wi-Fi 6. Your DJI RC controller will also get to enjoy 1080p feeds at 60fps thanks to the OccuSync.

Behold the\u00a0Fifish V-EVO Underwater Drone that records 4K 60FPS videos. Not only is it extremely dark underwater as it goes deeper, but the environment can also cause interference.\u00a0 For this reason, the Fifish V-EVO Underwater Drone combines a high-resolution, high-framerate camera with a powerful lighting system, ensuring that you have a clear view of everything that traverses the path of your ROV.Fifish V-EVO Underwater Drone Records 4K 60FPS VideosPerhaps now your dream of shooting your own National Geographic underwater-style videos will come true. According to the company, it is the first diving drone to combine a 4K 60FPS underwater camera with 360-degree omnidirectional mobility, allowing it to face any direction desired. This allows you to capture smooth and dynamic underwater footage while following marine life, inspecting an oil rig, or exploring a shipwreck, as you can perform some really lovely camera movements.Fifish V-EVO Main FeaturesThe Fifish V-EVO Underwater Drone can record 4K video at 60 frames per second with an ultrawide 166-degree field of view, allowing for a detailed view of all the underwater sites. It combines this camera system with a pair of ultra-bright white LEDs that emit a total of 5,000 lumens, allowing you to see the same sights in all their grandeur despite the darkness and murkiness of the deep waters.What's Included in The Fifish V-EVO PackageAn adaptive imaging system allows the camera to adjust colour balance and remove noise distortion in the captured footage on the fly, allowing you to see everything in bright and vivid colour, while onboard artificial intelligence filters out all the marine flakes produced by plankton and bacteria for an even clearer image.5000 Bright Lumen LEDsBecause the lens is fixed exactly on the nose of the drone, it is able to frame any subject that it focuses on without anything getting in the way. Because of this, it is excellent for partnering with first-person view goggles to provide a more immersive experience. Please be aware that this remotely operated vehicle (ROV) is tethered and is equipped with a cable of 328 feet in length; as a result, the greatest depth that the unmanned submersible can reach is 328 feet.Fifish V-EVO 360 Degrees Omniview Capture4K Camera To Record Everything UnderwaterOptional Accessories To Power Up Your Fifish V-EVO!Sold separately, of course. \ud83d\ude02The Fifish V-EVO Underwater Drone has six thrusters, and each one is curved in a different way to let it move in different ways. This gives the drone the ability to turn left, right, up, and down, as well as make 360-degree turns in pitch, roll, and yaw, so it can move in almost any direction. This makes it very easy to move around in these high-pressure areas. You can use the app to directly control the drone, but you can also use a function called \"Posture Lock\" to keep the drone's angle while moving forward or backwards, and a function called \"Vision Lock\" to keep a subject in focus. Is it as advanced as the AI tracking on your favourite consumer drone? Most likely not, but it should still be able to do some powerful things.The Best Underwater Drone Right Now?Watch\u00a0Fifish V-EVO Underwater Drone in Action!The maximum speed is three knots, which is equivalent to approximately 3.5 miles per hour. It weighs just over nine pounds and has a battery that is rated to last for up to four hours.

That is why Razer has made its quest to emulate\u00a0Elgato's Stream Deck\u00a0which has been a huge success. Behold the brand new Razer Stream Controller X for streamers. It is only natural if you're a company seeking to capitalize on the broadcast control market, to emulate the best in the industry at the moment. Hence, the Razer Stream Controller can be a great alternative to Elgato's Stream Deck.Razer Stream Controller X For StreamersRazer created a streaming control board that closely resembles Elgato's original device (which has since evolved into different designs), adopting a similar form factor with switchblade key keys that make various broadcasting functions accessible with a single button press. Is it preferable to the Stream Deck? Not as far as we can tell. However, if you are a dedicated Razer user who relies on the company's peripherals, it may be the superior choice.15 Switchblade Buttons on Razer Stream ControllerThe Razer Stream Controller X is slightly smaller than the Stream Deck. Its dimensions are 4.4 x 3.2 x 1.2 inches, so it should be easier to fit into your desk. It comes with 15 switchblade buttons that you should be able to use as one-press shortcuts for different tasks, such as streaming, podcasting, video editing, music production, and more. Streaming is the main reason for having these physical shortcuts, as they make it much easier to direct your production by letting you switch active cameras, change lighting, bring up individual sound effects, and more with just one tap.Multi-link MacrosIt lets you make multi-link macros that let you run more than one function with a single command by dragging moves into a custom editor. You can also choose how many times an action happens with each press, so there is a lot of freedom here. If you want to program more than 15 actions into the dashboard, you can use custom profiles that change the mappings of buttons on the fly. Yes, you can also set the icons for each button, so you can make them look the way you want.Detachable 50\u00b0 Anti-slip Magnetic StandThe Razer Stream Controller X utilizes Loupedeck's software for button programming and customization. As a result, you have access to a variety of pre-made profiles for popular platforms and software, including Twitch, OBS Studio, Spotify, Voicemod, Razer Key Light Control, and more, as well as a variety of plugins, icons, audio, stream overlays, and even emotes. Why not use Loupedeck's interface controller rather than Razer's? In all honesty, Loupedeck's hardware is considerably more complicated and cluttered than Razer's basic 5 x 3 button grid.Compatible With Leading Streaming SoftwareIt comes with a magnetic stand that you can use to hold the dashboard at a comfortable angle, as well as disconnect if you'd rather just have it laying flat on the desk. This stand is included in the package. When used without the stand, the dashboard can tilt up to a maximum of eight degrees, but when used in conjunction with the stand, it can tilt up to a maximum of fifty degrees. It comes with a USB cable that is six feet long so that you may connect it to your machine. At this time, the Razer Stream Controller X can be yours with a price tag of $149.99 (RM669).

Besides, being able to make crystal clear calls (more on this later). this smartwatch is packed with tonnes of features that will blow your mind for sure!Kieslect Calling Watch Ks ReviewYours truly me have been an owner of a few smartwatches for quite some time, but I have yet to find the perfect smartwatch that will fit right on my wrist; That is until I meet Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Truth be told, this latest smartwatch of mine is an accidental discovery. I stumbled upon it when I was hunting for a new smartwatch. Its bright orange and yellow strap caught my attention and that was when I knew I needed to get one for myself.Available in 60 Different CountriesHonestly, I had never heard about Kieslect before this. Turns out Kieslect has been around since 2017 and is employing 600 people globally\u00a0to be its assets. Kieslect products including the Kieslect Calling Watch Ks that I have purchased are certified with CE, RoHS, FCC and UKCA. This goes to show that this brand adheres to the highest standard and is a trustworthy brand.Award-winning Kieslect SmartwatchesKieslect has at least 5,000 retail outlets in more than 60 countries. Its presence in so many nations including Malaysia as well as the various stringent certifications it has received give me complete peace of mind to purchase it. The icing on the cake is to know that Kieslect has won numerous international awards including the prestigious iF Design Award, Red Dot Design Award, and the reputable German Design Award just to name a few. This goes to show that the designs of its smartwatches are incredibly stunning and fashionable. These include Kieslect Smart Calling Watch Kr, Kieslect Calling Watch Kr Pro, and Kieslect Lady Calling Watch Lora just to name a few.Suitable for Work, Play and ExerciseI admit that Kieslect Calling Watch Ks\u00a0caught my eye because it looks really fashionable and cool. Its beautiful design makes it suitable for work, play and of course, exercise as well. Having said so,\u00a0this smartwatch from Kieslect is not just eye candy. There is more to it than meets the eye. In fact, I am shocked to know how good it is the moment I slapped it on my wrist. Let's take a deep dive with me to read my review of Kieslect Calling Watch Ks, shall we?Top 17 Reasons To Get Kieslect Calling Watch Ks1. Huge 1.78-inch AMOLED DisplayUnlike a lot of other fitness bands and smartwatches, the huge 1.78-inch AMOLED colourful display of Kieslect Calling Watch Ks\u00a0really stands out among its peers. I really love the vivid and vibrant colour of the display at 368x448 resolution. The best part is, even under the glaring hot sun, the brightness of the screen makes it easy to view anything that is on display. No more squinting my eyes or covering my smartwatch under the sun anymore. Two thumbs up!2. Super Responsive TouchscreenIn the past, I have been frustrated by my smartwatches with unresponsive touchscreens. That is not the case here with my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Every single touch input of mine can be detected quickly and accurately. This is crucial to make sure that I can navigate through the menus and options easily without the need to retap the screen again and again.3. Premium High-Quality Durable BuildDespite the Kieslect Calling Watch Ks' affordable price tag, I am utterly shocked by its high-quality, durable build. I was expecting it to be a bit \"plasticky\" but that is not the case here. In fact, I am impressed with the premium build that exudes so much class and elegance. Thanks to its CNC-polished metal casing and rotatable navigation crown, the smartwatch screams \"luxurious\" on my wrist! The magnetic straps really add that final posh touch to this sleek fashionable smartwatch.4. Abnormal Heart Rate WarningThis is a feature that all my previous smartwatches do not have-Abnormal Heart Rate Warning. Besides monitoring your heart rate non-stop 24/7, this Kieslect Calling Watch Ks of mine will even alert me when my heart starts beating abnormally, outside the usual range. This will be ideal for me as I exercise a lot and I have a very demanding stressful job. Of course, I hope this will never be triggered. \ud83e\udd235. Your Doctor on Your WristI would love to liken my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks to my very own personal doctor right on my wrist.\u00a0 Besides the aforementioned Abnormal Heart Rate Warning, this smartwatch is also packed with SPO2, Continuous Heart Rate Monitoring, Sleep Monitoring, Breathing Training, Stress Test and even Emotion Test. There is even breathing training to help you to stop and relax for a while. Yupe! With Kieslect Calling Watch Ks,\u00a0I feel like I have a mini, mobile doctor to be by my side all the time.6. Multi-purpose Second ButtonAnother ingenious design for this Kieslect Calling Watch Ks is its multi-purpose second button right under the rotatable navigation crown. Besides the crown, you can maximise your user experience by taking advantage of the second button which serves so many different functions. With a single press, you will enter Sports Mode immediately. Pressing the button twice will activate the powerful voice assistant. Long press-and-hold will trigger the SOS Help Mode. Very, very useful button if you ask me!7. Choose from 100 Sports ModesBesides being a fashionable smartwatch, my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks\u00a0also doubles up as my fitness coach. I can choose from the 100 different sports modes to track my activities and fitness level. All my usual activities are right there from outdoor running to strength training. Interestingly, you can also track your martial arts practice and dancing. So every movement is counted towards your fitness goals.8. Superb Kie OS AppA smartwatch without a good accompanying app will be very limited. I will admit that initially, I had little to no expectations when it comes to the accompanying app of my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. The moment the Kie OS Application was installed on my smartphone, I was utterly blown away by it. The app is extremely mature and well-developed to the extent that I could not believe this is actually coming from a brand I have never heard of before. How ignorant of me! \ud83d\ude31The Kie OS Application boasts a user-friendly interface and navigation around the app is really intuitive and snappy. At a glance, you can easily see all the important details and information on the different tabs namely Activity, Workouts, Device and Me. The whole layout is very thoughtful and well-arranged. So kudos to the developers who have poured in so much effort to polish this superb app. I would go as far as to claim that the Kie OS Application is one of the best smartwatch apps I have used.9. Crystal Clear Calling Using SmartwatchI did not expect that I could make a phone call just by using my smartwatch. Yes. The Kieslect Calling Watch Ks is my very first smartwatch with calling capability. I am not going to lie; In the beginning, I was sceptical about its calling feature because of its affordable price point. I made my first phone call using my smartwatch and there is no turning back for me anymore (at least occasionally). \ud83d\ude01I can't believe that my calls using this Kieslect Calling Watch Ks can be so crystal clear. I was flabbergasted when I made my first \"smartwatch calling\". Everything was unbelievably clear and the person on the other end could hear my natural voice perfectly well too. Thanks to the Bluetooth 5.2 connection together with the outstanding integrated speakers and microphone, calling any via my smartwatch can now be done seamlessly. I notice that I do look cooler when I call someone just by using my smartwatch (with my smartphone in my pocket). \ud83d\ude0e10. AI Voice AssistantNone of my other smartwatches is equipped with a voice assistant. So, when I am really excited to know that I could \"command\" my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks to do a lot of things for me such as making phone calls, starting my exercise and even setting alarms for me just to name a few. All I have to do is double-click on the multi-purpose second button. I wish I could rename it as Jarvis thought. \ud83e\udd1611. Games on my SmartwatchThis is one of the interesting features of my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Don't get me wrong, there are tonnes of other apps and features this new smartwatch of mine has, but being able to play games on my wrist is a first for me. Though at the moment there are only 2 integrated games available namely Flappy Bird and 2048, both of them have done a good job entertaining me when I need a mini break.12. Control Your MusicThanks to the intuitive music player, I can now switch the songs that I am listening to without the need to reach out to my smartphone. I can even increase or decrease the volume of my music just by rotating the crown. With just a few taps, I could enjoy my favourite tunes the way I want them. Do you know that you can also listen to your music right from the smartwatch itself? I can't believe music is now playing right on my wrist. The clarity and volume of the music coming from the smartwatch's speakers are really impressive. \ud83c\udfb513. Always on Display (AOD)This is truly an underrated feature that I love about my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Without the need to \"wake up\" my smartwatch, I could get all the important information at a glance such as the time (of course), date and the number of steps I have made. Alternatively, you can opt to display a world clock as your AOD instead. I personally believe that AOD is a must-have feature for all fitness bands and smartwatches if you ask me.14. IP68 WaterproofI am glad to know that my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks comes with IP68 waterproof function. Essentially, it is able to withstand raindrops (no more worries while jogging in the rain) and water splashes. I did let my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks be sprayed with water. Of course, it is still usable as usual.15. Tonnes of Smartwatch FacesI am taking full advantage of the huge AMOLED display and vivid colours of my smartwatch screen by changing its faces from time to time. My Kieslect Calling Watch Ks comes with 5 default faces that I could easily change among them. Interestingly, there are even more available for free download by using the Kie OS application. All of them look really premium and well-designed. From colourful faces to analogue ones, rest assured that you will find a lot of smartwatch faces\u00a0that will make deciding difficult. It happens to me all the time. \ud83d\ude0216. Swappable Smartwatch StrapsIt is very rare that you will get another extra strap for your smartwatch but that's what I am getting with my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Besides the ultra-cool fancy magnetic straps, Kieslect is generous enough to throw in another pair of black silicone straps that are really easy on my skin. When I am exercising, I will usually switch to this pair of silicone straps. So, thank you Kieslect.17. Outstanding Battery LifeOn paper, my\u00a0Kieslect Calling Watch Ks has a rated 5-day battery life. I have tried it and on average my battery life could last at least around 2 days up to 3 days max which is really decent for me since I have ramped up the brightness on the huge 1.78-inch AMOLED display and used a lot of its features ranging from notifications to playing games. So getting at least 48 hours for my heavy usage before needing another charge is pretty ok for me.This relatively outstanding battery life is possible thanks to the 2-in-1 chip under the hood of my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. In fact, it is only the 3rd 2-in-1 Core calling chip in the world, after Apple and Samsung. Therefore, the power consumption of my smartwatch is 30% lower than that of a dual chip, allowing it to compete with the top 10 thin Calina watches in terms of battery life.Feature-rich SmartwatchThere you go folks, the top 17 features of my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks that I am in love with right now. Of course, there are tonnes of other equally amazing features that I did not include in the above list. I appreciate the fact that I could easily take photos using my smartphone just by controlling it with my smartwatch. The other features that I have used quite a lot include the weather forecast, alarm, calculator, torch, timer and stopwatch.If you are a globe trotter, you can also make good use of its World Clock. Just add any city of your choice and voila, you can know the time on the other side of the world. Want to look for your missing smartphone? Hit the Find My Phone feature, and your smartphone will be buzzing you in no time. I discovered that I could also password-protect my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks which is really cool if you are worried that it might get stolen. \ud83d\ude05Kieslect Calling Watch Ks Price and WarrantyHow much did I pay to get this all-in-one feature-rich Kieslect Calling Watch Ks? For just RM349, I could have a smartwatch with calling capabilities together with a super huge ultra-bright AMOLED display as well as tonnes of other features that make my life a whole lot easier. Kieslect Calling Watch Ks also comes with\u00a0a one-year replacement warranty for me to exchange it for a brand new unit should it get faulty which I doubt will happen thanks to its amazing build and quality.Watch my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks in Action!

I, myself came to know this company thanks to their fancy 360-degree cameras as well. But thanks to the introduction of the Insta360 Flow handheld smartphone gimbal, the company has more tricks up its sleeves right now!Insta360 Flow Handheld Smartphone GimbalPrior to this, the company has done so by developing a number of distinct types of these devices, each of which is designed with a particular application in mind. Spherical videos, while the undeniable fact that they have some applications have not yet achieved the level of widespread adoption that the company behind them had hoped for. The company is expanding their horizons with the launch of the Insta360 Flow handheld smartphone gimbal, despite the fact that we do not see them moving away from its primary offering in the near future.This is a Great Alternative to DJI GimbalsInterestingly, I have noticed that the company has decided to forego the production of yet another 360-degree camera in favour of the production of a smartphone gimbal. This gimbal will allow you to film stabilized handheld footage using your smartphone. You are probably familiar with the OM series produced by DJI. In this particular instance, however, the company makes use of all of the AI features that they have already created for their 360-degree cameras. They employ these characteristics to assist you in tracking, stabilizing, and editing your films with the least amount of manual input possible.All-in-One Smartphone GimbalThe Insta360 Flow handheld smartphone gimbal has a locking clamp mechanism that should accommodate most smartphone sizes, as well as an extendable arm that allows you to hold the phone at a comfortable distance for self-framed video. It features three-axis gimbal stabilization that effectively balances out any shakes or jitters, allowing you to capture smooth footage with your smartphone camera without having to tiptoe and move slowly. Even the base of the grip is built-in, enabling you to film without using your hands.Accurate Deep Tracking GimbalVersatile TrackingIt employs the outfit's AI-powered tracking system to keep the subject in frame at all times, which can function even if the subject is partially obscured. According to the organization, it can re-identify the subject upon their reappearance in the scene and recommence tracking them as before. It also has AI-based features such as all-angle tracking, zoom tracking (for more cinematic views), slow-motion tracking, and tracking during video calls.Insta360 Flow Special EffectsShot Genie SoftwareBy using the available Shot Genie software, you can choose to record from the 80 different filming scenarios. In other words, Shot Genie will be doing all the heavy lifting, and shooting all the necessary cinematography. Of course, you can also control everything manually using the Smartwheel control on the handlebar. Sounds good? Definitely. However, the software is not yet compatible with all mobile devices. Currently, only the iPhone 11, 12, 13, and 14 are compatible with all features, while Android models vary in their compatibility.Insta360 Flow Smartphone Gimbal Gesture ControlInsta360 Flow Smartphone Gimbal 360 Panorama ModeKey Control You Need To KnowYour Gimbal cum Selfie StickHighly Pocketable and CompactIt can record in 4K at 60 frames per second and 1080p at 240 frames per second, but only for the iPhone models listed above and the Google Pixel 6 (and 6 Pro). Other smartphones can only record at 30 frames per second. So yeah\u2026 It's currently only a decent deal for iPhone owners with newer models.Is This The Best Smartphone Gimbal?Watch Insta360 Flow Handheld Smartphone Gimbal AdvertisementThe company claims that the motor is strong enough to handle phones weighing up to 300 grams, which indicates that it should have no issue mounting even the largest iPhone. I am happy to note that a relatively huge battery of 2,900 mAh is powering the Insta360 Flow handheld smartphone gimbal.\u00a0On paper, you will get enough juice to keep it shooting for up to 12 hours between charges. This means that you can go a whole half day filming stabilized video with this device. Insta360 smartphone gimbal is now available with a starting price tag of US$159 (RM699).

These releases have provided content creators with a rig that makes shooting videos for YouTube and social media platforms a more convenient experience. They are both reasonably priced, which makes them an appealing option for novices and enthusiasts who produce social media content on the side. Their most recent model, the Sony ZV-E1, maintains the same approachable demeanour towards vloggers while also incorporating more sophisticated features that the target audience of professionals is likely to value.Sony ZV-E1 Vlogging Camera-Dream Come True For VloggersThe new vlogging camera combines the compact and lightweight size of the ZV line with advanced functionality that gives it the kind of versatility that YouTube veterans and social media professionals might be looking for in their primary rig. It is being marketed as \"the ultimate video and content creation tool.\" Yes, it is definitely overkill for beginners who are looking to get a YouTube channel started, but it just might be the perfect camera for people who are looking to take the next leap in the content that they produce.BIONZ XR Image Processing EngineThe Sony ZV-E1 shares the diminutive dimensions of other ZV-series cameras, but its feature set is identical to that of the high-end A7S III. As such, it is equipped with a 35mm full-frame sensor that, according to the manufacturer, can deliver high sensitivity, low noise, and beautiful bokeh. It combines this with a new BIONZ XR image processing engine that has eight times the processing capacity of previous models, allowing for significant enhancements in high-sensitivity performance, gradation rendering, and more.Record 4K Videos at 120 FPSIt can record 4K video at up to 120 fps, allowing you to capture 5x slow-motion footage in 4K resolution with a reasonable level of detail. Videos can be recorded at full pixel output at 10-bit 4:2:2. In other words, no pixel binning is necessary. So Vloggers can happily record any clips and videos in 4K full-frame format. Moreover, unlike previous ZV cameras, this one features five-axis optical image stabilization, ensuring that it captures seamless, jitter-free footage from the get-go.Interchangeable LensShare any photos easily using your smartphone!The Sony ZV-E1 incorporates an artificial intelligence (AI)-based Auto Framing feature for video. This feature employs subject recognition to crop the frame in such a way that it always maintains the subject in a conspicuous position. You can even change how quickly and frequently the auto-reframing will follow a subject, which enables you to capture videos by yourself that give the impression that there is another person operating the camera the entire time.

Essentially, you receive a handheld camera, an action camera, and a remote with a real-time display, making it a versatile tool for various video capture requirements.The Feiyu Pocket 3 appears to be a typical compact handheld camera, with a gimbal camera on top and a grip with integrated controls and a small full-color LCD. The camera can record 4K video at 60fps and capture 12 megapixel stills with a 130-degree field of view, making it suitable for modern content creation requirements.

Instead, it is magnetically attached to the top of the handle, making it effortless to attach and remove.Shot With Feiyu Pocket 3The Feiyu Pocket 3 enables the gimbal camera to be detached from the handle and mounted anywhere for use as a standalone action cam. Using the magnets at the base, you should be able to place it on flat surfaces and even ferromagnetic surfaces without any additional accessories. However, it comes with an expansion base that can be attached to make it compatible with any tripod, a small tripod to give you more options when setting it up on flat surfaces, and two harnesses that can be used to secure it to helmets, skateboards, and bicycle handlebars. Note that the gimbal and handheld handle must be within three feet of each other in order to control the gimbal or view real-time footage (any further and you risk compromising the connection).Your Cordless Detachable 3-axis Gimbal CameraThe internal battery is rated for 60 minutes of runtime when shooting in 1080p, so there isn't much juice here, particularly if you're capturing 4K video.

The tool uses fast but focused airflow is engineered for balance in the hand, is quieter than others and intelligently controls the temperature to help protect hair from extreme heat damage.From the Dyson 2022 Global Hair Study, respondents described healthy hair as shiny (36%) which is supported by Dyson\u2019s hair science knowledge, as healthy hair reflects light. However, when hair is exposed to extreme temperatures, it scatters light in all directions, decreasing shine. Therefore, from our investment in hair technology, our mission is to reduce heat damage and to keep hair healthy.Unlike traditional hair dryers, the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer measures air temperature over 40 times a second to regulate temperature output. Featuring Dyson\u2019s intelligent heat control technology, the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer prevents extreme heat damage, to help protect hair\u2019s shine.The Dyson Supersonic hair dryer special-edition Topaz Orange is priced at RM2,299 available from Dyson Demo Stores and www.dyson.my.Dyson Airwrap Multi-styler Complete LongStyling hair should not be synonymous with damaging hair. Similarly, to the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer, the Dyson Airwrap multi-styler Complete Long features Dyson\u2019s intelligent heat control technology, allowing users to achieve their desired style at a lower temperature, preventing hair from extreme heat damage.At the heart of the Dyson Airwrap multi-styler Complete Long sits the Dyson Digital Motor, which is harnessed to create a phenomenon known as the Coanda effect. The power the motor generates helps to create a high-speed jet of air that flows across the surface of the Dyson Airwrap styler attachments. Due to differences in pressure, the airflow attaches itself to the surface, creating what\u2019s known as the Coanda effect. Taking advantage of this principle, Dyson\u2019s team of aerodynamicists created a way to style hair using this airflow combined with heat. The result, whether choosing to curl, wave, smooth or rough dry hair, creates a natural look with a sleek finish.The Dyson Airwrap Multi Styler Complete Long in Topaz Orange is priced at RM2,899 available from Dyson Demo Stores and www.dyson.my."} {"title": "PRISM+ Launched Its Largest Retail Outlet at IOI City Mall", "body": "PRISM+, the consumer tech brand best known for\u00a0its premium value gaming monitors and best-selling 4K Android TVs, has announced\u00a0the launch of its latest store at IOI City Mall.

They say sometimes the more displays you have, the better it is, right? Let's find out. Today I am going to share a new gadget-the PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16. Honestly, this is my first time reviewing a portable display. Will it live up to my expectations? Let's find out.PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 ReviewIt appears that portable displays are getting more popular these days thanks to a variety of media that we can consume and the content-rich work that we are involved in on a daily basis. The PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 that I have at my disposal is actually a portable OLED display. Having said so, this OLED portable display sets it apart from ordinary portable LCD displays thanks to its amazing visual quality.The PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 is built to meet all your essential requirements for a portable display. It will equip you with portability (of course), performance, and versatility. If you are on the go a lot (like me-digital nomad), you will appreciate this portable OLED display a lot. Let's have a look at its main features that will blow your mind.Inside the Box of PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16Out of the box, you will get the the huge portable OLED display (of course). Then you will see 2 super premium-quality USB-C cables. There is also an equally high-grade HDMI cable for you to use. PRISM+ has also been generous enough to throw in an adapter in case you need to use it. For my case, just the USB-C cable alone is suffice for me to connect either my laptop or my smartphone to the Nomad Ultra 16 portable display. On the complimentary protective case-cum-kickstand is also in the box.Top Main Features of\u00a0PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 161. Huge 15.6-inch DisplayMy default laptop only has a display size of 13-inch which I am struggling with due to its relatively small screen size. That is why I am loving the huge 15.6-inch display of my PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16. It provides me with large \"screen real estate\" for me to get my work done. In fact, thanks to the big display, I could get my work done even more quickly as I do not need to switch between tabs and windows all the time.2. Ultraslim + Ultralight at 0.75kgDespite its huge display, you would think that PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 will be quite heavyweight, right? Contrary to that popular belief, it is really featherweight, tipping the scale at a mere 0.75kg only. Let's look at its dimension, shall we?The 15.6-inch display is encased in a form factor measuring 359mm in width and 229mm in height. This barely noticeable weight is further backed up by its ultraslim build with a thickness of only 8.2mm! So this portable OLED display from PRISM+ is not only light but also very slim.3. Full HD OLED PanelAs I have aforementioned, the PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 is an OLED portable display. Get ready to feast on the visual brilliance of this Full HD OLED Panel. Vivid and accurate colours together with the truest blacks could be easily produced by the Full HD display. Yes! I enjoy watching my Netflix dramas and movies using this excellent display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080. You might not believe it, but it is better than my laptop screen!Watching Wednesday's Iconic Dance Moves! View this post on Instagram A post shared by Tekkaus\u00ae (@tekkaus) With a super wide viewing angle of 178\u00b0, rest assured that this marvelous viewing experience can be enjoyed by your family, friends, colleagues, and even potential clients.

Enhanced Colour ReproductionThanks to its wide colour gamut, this portable OLED display from PRISM+ will be perfect for those whose work requires visual precision in terms of colours. In other words, graphic designers, video editors, and animators will appreciate this portable display.On paper, the PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 boasts a wider spectrum of colors with the 150% sRGB. It supports a mind-boggling 1.07 billion colours which are utterly impressive. It is also equipped with a peak luminance of 400cd/m2, rendering images to be brighter and more lifelike. Throw in the 100000:1 contrast support and you will get the perfect portable OLED display for work and play!5. Anti-glare and Blue Light FilterBesides blasting our sight with an OLED display of vivid colours and remarkable brightness, the company has also gone the extra mile to protect our eyes. Yes! This is a portable display designed to provide ample protection for the eyes. I truly appreciate this anti-glare display with an integrated blue light filter. That is why I do not really feel any eye strain or even fatigue though I am using it for quite a number of hours daily.6. Impressive Built-in SpeakersFrankly speaking, I was not expecting this portable display to have built-in speakers. After all, they are not the usual standalone \"extra\" monitors. So, it is a pleasant surprise when I discovered that PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 comes with built-in stereo speakers.Thanks to the pair of 1.5-watt stereo speakers, you can now enjoy your videos and audio tracks on the go. It actually sounds way better than my laptop's very own muffled speakers if you ask me. So this is really a remarkable addition by PRISM+ to make their portable display even more versatile and usable in a myriad of situations.7. Multiple Connectivity and Compatibility OptionsTrue to its reputation, PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 is compatible with multiple devices be it your desktop computer, laptop, or even your smartphone. I am delighted that it connects to my laptop and smartphone effortlessly well.This portable OLED display comes with both ports for USB Type-C as well as Mini HDMI. These two connectivity options allow the portable display to be plugged in and connected to virtually any device. No more looking for cables that are incompatible.8. Ergonomic Sleeve KickstandInterestingly, this PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 comes with a built-in sleeve for your convenience. Besides serving as protection, the built-in sleeve can easily transform into an ergonomic kickstand. Voila! You can start enjoying a hands-free viewing experience at the perfect angle. So project presentations and drama binge-watching will be more enjoyable now!VERDICT-Is PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 Good?So is this PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 the ideal portable display for you? My answer is a resounding yes if you are looking for a portable display that is huge (15.6 inches), light (0.75kg), and slim (8.2mm). Since it is an OLED display, colours are extremely vivid and lifelike and the contrast is superb for better viewing clarity and enjoyment. The built-in speakers and ergonomic kickstand sleeve are definitely a bonus.Easily adjust the settings of the portable displayMultitaskingCan you guess what I am watching on Netflix?Can you guess the name of this song?2 are definitely better than 1!All in all, I am really impressed by this PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 portable display. As aforementioned, the colours, clarity, and contrast of the display alone are enough to make me want to get it. The display is better than that of my laptop and smartphone (in terms of sheer size). The ability to use it as an extended screen is a huge bonus when I multitask as well. For RM1,399, I believe PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 is a steal if you ask me.

However, a lot of them will give you extra work eventually. These robot vacuums will end up getting stuck on your carpets, cables, and almost everything you have left on your floor.

Unlike other robot vacuum, its water tank can be refilled on its own. In fact, even the dirt that has been vacuumed will be handled by the Roborock vacuum itself. Let's have a look.Roborock Ultra Dock1. Auto Water Tank RefillingThe Ultra Dock will automatically refill the water tank of Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra without needing you to do it manually again and again. So now you will have an extended mopping coverage of 300 square metres. Your whole house can be vacuumed and mopped clean entirely by your Roborock vacuum without any intervention on your part.2.

The removable dust bag has 7days' of capacity storage before needing a change. That is close to 2 months!Top 7 Features of Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra1. Real-Time Video CallThis has got to be the most unexpected feature that I have discovered on my Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra. Besides being your super intelligent robot vacuum, the S7 MaxV Ultra is equipped with cameras and a microphone for video calling. This is so freaking cool if you ask me. So it can double up as a remote viewing CCTV at home with wheels.Watch Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra Video Call FunctionYou can actually see what the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is seeing. With the integrated microphone, you can also talk to the person near the robot vacuum by using the Roborock App. By using the \"Pin n Go\"feature, you can also command your robot vacuum to a spot without doing any cleanup.

You can even use it to check on blind spots inside your house which is not covered by CCTV. OMG!2. Powerful Suction ForceA robot vacuum without powerful suction force is like a flower vase for decorations only. Do you know that a lot of normal vacuums in the market only comes with 2,500pa of suction power? The Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is packed with up to a staggering 5,200pa of suction power to suck up everything on its way. Ha \ud83d\ude01 Hit the Max+ mode and nothing can escaped being vacuumed.3.

Vibrarise Sonic Vibration MappingNo disrespect to any other robot vacuums, but we know that a lot of so-called robot vacuum that has mopping feature cannot really mop. You read it right. These companies use this claim as a mere gimmick to persuade you to purchase a half-baked feature. Enter sonic vibration technology that has transformed the mopping capabilities of Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra.

In other words, air purification will drain quite a lot of juice from the futuristic-looking headphones.Dyson Zone Will Have 50 Hours of Battery LifeIn the cups of the Dyson Zone headphones are 40mm neodymium drivers with a frequency range of 2Hz to 21kHz and an impedance of 16 ohms. On the interior and exterior of the headphones are a total of eight microphones that power the hybrid ANC technology. An additional one contributes to the beamforming technology used to transmit your voice during calls. Dyson claims that there are a total of eleven microphones, although the purpose of the remaining two is uncertain. Perhaps to pick up ultra far-field sound? \ud83d\ude02Dyson's Very First Audio ProductWill it live up to its reputation and hype?Dyson has also boldly asserted that the headphones resemble ear protectors. In other words, the headband is strengthened so that it can have a greater clamping force, while the ear cups are enlarged. These would provide better passive noise isolation. However, it is claimed that the pads on the ear cups moderate the tightness sufficiently. In addition, Dyson also claims that tests were conducted in locations with warmer climates and higher humidity, which presumably means that it will be comfortable for us Malaysians to wear even in our hot climate.What is the price of Dyson Zone Headphones?Finally, Dyson reports that the Dyson Zone headphones and air filter combo will go on sale in China in January, followed by the United States, the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, and Singapore in March. The company states that we will be notified \"closer to availability\" on local availability and the price tag. So Malaysians will have to wait a lot longer? Why can't we get the Dyson Zone headphones at the same time as our neighbours in Singapore? What is the price of Dyson Zone Headphones? It is reported to come with a price tag of US$949 (RM4,199). Will audiophiles buy this headphones from Dyson?"} {"title": "Garmin Tacx NEO Bike Plus-Indoor Smart Bike", "body": "The Garmin Tacx NEO Bike has been introduced roughly three years ago, just prior to the Covid-19 lockdowns. This has caused a significant increase in home training immediately thereafter. Since then, the home training space has fundamentally changed considerably. Behold the brand new\u00a0Garmin Tacx NEO Bike Plus. It makes perfect sense Garmin updates its Tacx NEO Bike lineup with the latest tech.Garmin Tacx NEO Bike PlusNo, it is not a complete redesign of Garmin's stationary bike (which is distinct from their Tacx cycling trainer), but a small update that should make it more competitive in the current indoor smart bike market. It preserves the silent operation and realistic road feel of the previous generation, as well as the virtual shifting and smart technology while introducing a number of nice enhancements.Compact Form FactorThe handlebar of the Garmin Tacx NEO Bike Plus has been modified to replicate the feel of regular cycling handlebars, and the shifters can be tuned to simulate the feeling of the chain jumping on your choice of Shimano, SRAM, or Campagnolo shifters. They also provide five crank length options, up from three in the previous model, and a thinner seat post minimizes contact with the legs, which can be uncomfortable for some riders. Adjustable saddle position, stem height, Seatpost height, and handlebar position allow you to dial in the ideal riding sensation.4.5-inch LCD DisplayYou can now \"see\" where you are riding!It works in conjunction with the Tacx Training software, which causes the trainer to vibrate and simulate riding on various road surfaces, while dynamic inertia lets you retain a sense of forward motion dependent on the pace and gradient of the simulated path for an even more immersive riding experience. Once plugged in, the Garmin Tacx NEO Bike Plus can go uphill with ascents of 25 percent gradient max. The same applies when it goes downhill with a maximum of 25 percent gradient. Using kinetic energy, this device can create its own electricity for its internal battery, allowing it to function without being plugged in.Feel The Vibrations and the Wind!You can now feel the wind against your face!The Garmin Tacx NEO Bike Plus allows you to do power sprints of up to 2,200 watts while preserving optimal pedal stability. In addition to measuring your pedaling style by constantly evaluating the position of your left and right legs, it provides consistent and accurate readings of power, speed, and cadence with an accuracy of up to one percent. You can track and monitor your performance thanks to the huge 4.5-inch display. Interestingly, a pair of fans flanking the display may imitate wind. You can actually set the fan speed to your power output. You can also cool yourself down by using the fans. The fans start spinning when your heart rate rises.Track and Monitor Your PerformanceThe Garmin app will include a video library that allows you to ride through a variety of real-world courses. In other words, you can actually simulate cycling in Asia, North America, and Europe just to name a few.

Good lighting is crucial and\u00a0that is why I really love my latest Dyson Solarcycle Morph desk light. In my opinion, it is the best desk lamp that money can buy right now. After using it for a few months, I am confident that I do not need another desk lamp for the rest of my life, like seriously!Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light ReviewFor the uninitiated, Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light was previously known as Lightcyle but I agree that the latest name reflects the desk lamp even better. Names aside, know that this state-of-the-art Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light has been designed to provide the best artificial lighting for us, especially when we are indoors.Let's Unbox Our Dyson Solarcycle MorphDone assembling our Dyson desk lamp!The Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light has seen remarkably huge upgrades compared to its predecessor. Apparently, it is able to track local daylight intelligently. In other words, this avant-garde desk lamp can detect and track natural daylight in its surroundings and brilliantly transforms it to provide us with the best lighting needs.The Best Desk Lamp For My Home Office and Computer WorkWith the Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light, I can enjoy the right light at the right time for my home office when I am doing my computer work. Like all other Dyson products, this desk lamp boasts precision-engineered mechanics that can allow you to change the light format to suit how you want to enjoy your illumination be it for work, study, relaxation, or entertainment. Thanks to it, I can really stay focused on my work. Hence, it is no doubt the best desk lamp for my home office and computer work.If you take advantage of the MyDyson App, you can even adjust the desk lamp based on your tasks, age, mode, and of course your local daylight. Therefore, you can personalize the light to suit your every need from the crack of dawn until twilight or in my case after midnight. My world is now really brighter thanks to this new desk lamp of mine.It Has\u00a0360\u00b0 FlexibilityAnother reason to get this Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light is because of its mind-blowing\u00a0360\u00b0 maneuverability. Unlike other ordinary, run-of-the-mill table lighting, this desk lamp from Dyson can be adjusted to provide lighting the way you need it. It can be twisted and turned\u00a0360\u00b0 so that you get the perfect lighting to illuminate the exact spot that you want.You will no longer be limited as this can be moved in any direction that you need to get the light that you want. It's like the light itself can be moved and focused on where you want it to shine, regardless of the angle and height. This is definitely an underrated feature that needs highlighting! Honestly, I have never seen a desk lamp with such \"flexibility\".The 4 Different Forms of Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light:1. Indirect LightWhen you use Dyson Solarcycle Morph as indirect light, the intelligent optical head will smoothly rotate 360\u00b0 to bounce light off walls, floors, and ceilings. In this mode, natural light can be indirectly available at your disposal. You enjoy it when you switch to this indirect light mode. Usually, this indirect light setting is used when you just want the room to be illuminated when you chill out, sip your coffee, and enjoy some music or do your leisure reading.2. Task LightThis is the format of lighting that I use the most with my Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light.\u00a0If you require specialised illumination, this is the type of lighting you should select. Task Light will be suitable for a concentrated, intense light for work, hobbies, makeup applications, as well as intricate tasks. I use this mainly when I do paperwork or when I need to really brainstorm some ideas while using my laptop.Rest assured that Solarcycle Morph is engineered to help you reduce your eye strain and improve visual performance especially when you are in the midst of a visually demanding task. Hence I must say that this is the best desk lamp for my home office, the best desk lamp for my computer work and it is the best desk lamp for studying (especially for my kids).3. Feature LightIn this lighting mode, you can highlight whatever you want to put on display. With Feature Light, you can elevate say your artwork, collectibles, antiques, or anything that you want to shine the limelight on. In this mode, the light can create dramatic effects, highlighting art, colours, and decorative features of what you put on the \"exhibition\". The breathtaking 3-Point Revolve motion enables precise positioning that will definitely bring out the best in your subjects. Honestly, this is the mode that I use the least. \ud83d\ude024. Ambient LightWhen I am not doing anything serious or attention-demanding, I will switch my Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light to Ambient Light mode. This is certainly one of my favourite forms of light. The stem lights up to create a soothing, orange glow that will not only be pleasing to the eyes but also set a comforting ambiance around it. When I want to watch something on Netflix and enjoy my late-night supper, I will activate Ambient Light to set the mood right.The Magic Behind Dyson Solarcyle Morph Desk LightIf you ask me, this desk lamp from Dyson is really magical. This is especially evident when you activate the Ambient Light mode! The unbelievably Intelligent Optical Head with 360\u00b0 maneuverability is attached to the stem. The stem is machined to a depth of 0.7mm and made from extruded aluminium to provide a unique combination of excellent impact resistance and smooth, light motion. The micro perforations produce a delicate gradient in the illuminated look, and the high reflecting surface within the aluminium core facilitates the light's perfect passage down the stem. To say the least, this sounds really incredible!The two ultra-thin exposed cables go through the centre of the Dyson Solarcycle Morph with a nearly transparent look. These wires, which are crimped at both ends under high tension, power the optical head in a nearly unnoticeable manner, so achieving a 360-degree, unbroken lighting effect on the stem. When docked as ambient light, the stem emits a soothing orange glow and may be customised for a restful evening by reducing the amount of damaging blue light. On the dock, a color-warming orange filter produces the warmest light levels by decreasing the colour temperature from 2,700K to 1,800K, simulating the hue of candlelight.Touch to Control Your Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk LightIt Will Last Up to 60 Years!I mentioned that I do not need another desk lamp for the rest of my life, right? This is because it can last up to 60 years! Dyson's heat pipe technology removes heat from LEDs to enable a continuous, energy-free cooling cycle, preserving light quality for an astounding 60 years. Yes! You read correctly, guys! This Dyson Solarcycle Morph Light can last for up to six decades, and you may never need to replace it again. I can even envision my grandchildren utilising this desk lamp when I am gone. \ud83d\ude02The Best Desk Lamp For EyesI can use this desk lamp for hours non-stop as I do not suffer from eye strain whatsoever! Thank you Dyson! Low light, flickering, and glare are all known to cause eye strain and visual fatigue. The Dyson Solarcycle Morph was designed to efficiently minimise eye strain and enhance visual performance. Custom drivers and light engines enable the Intelligent Optical Head to generate a uniform distribution of high-quality, strong light with a flicker score of less than 1% at maximum brightness. If you are looking for the best desk lamp for your eyes, this is it.Turn On Precision ModeWhen the Precision Mode is activated on the Dyson Solarcycle Morph, a colour rendering index of at least 90 (out of 100) is achieved. In precision mode, the desk lamp will exhibit colours that are very close to those of daylight. When I draw something and colour it or while my children are doing some crafts, everything appears to be more realistic in this setting. Precision mode enhances visual performance by emitting a pool of high-intensity light with a lower colour temperature (4,600 Kelvin). If you are an artist, then this is the desk lamp for you.Your Personalised Desk LampDo you know that the older you get, the more light you will need? Thanks to MyDyson app, you can personalize your Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light. The brightness of the light can be automatically changed in accordance with your age. This is made possible thanks to the Age Adjust mode. So the older you are, the brighter the light will be. The study, Relax, Precision, Boost, Wake-up, Sleep, and Away are the preset modes available.The desk lamp for for work and play!In addition, it includes manual control with touch-slider dimming and colour temperature setting, allowing users to define their own lighting preferences. It is possible to pre-program and name up to twenty distinct light settings, depending on the activity or mood. I am always in awe when I can easily change the light just by sliding my finger on the touch-slider control. It is satisfying!The Best Desk Lamp Money Can Buy!After using it for a few months, I must say that this is arguably one of the best desk lamps money can buy if not the best. The Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light comes with a price tag of RM2,999. However, do not forget that it can last up to 60 years! So it is only RM50 per year to own the best desk lamp in the world.

So there will be 20 New Dyson Beauty Innovations In The Next 4 Years! Alongside this investment, Dyson unveils the findings of its most extensive hair research study to date, which deepens global understanding of hair kinds, style practices, and perceptions of hair types and hair health.20 New Dyson Beauty Innovations In The Next 4 YearsDyson has constantly invested in technological innovation. It revolutionised hair care with the introduction of the Dyson SupersonicTM hairdryer six years ago - a machine that employs fast, regulated airflow and intelligent heat management to dry hair swiftly and keep it healthy. Since then, Dyson has created an array of styling products designed to offer exceptional styles for all hair types while minimising exposure to high heat damage. The effectiveness of Dyson styling products is the result of a decade of research into the hair's structure, airflow dynamics, and the effects of thermal, mechanical, and chemical damage.The Core of Dyson Has Always Been ResearchA staggering 6,000 engineers and scientists have access to hundreds of laboratories spread across Dyson's four Technology Campuses. These areas permit rigorous testing of innovative concepts and technology around-the-clock. For Dyson to really comprehend how all hair types behave and to continue identifying better, healthier styling methods, the team develops test rigs and utilises cutting-edge technology. The use of equipment such as scanning electron microscopes, thermal cameras, and airflow laser smoke machines aids engineers in comprehending the effects of hair destruction, worldwide hair types, and high-velocity airflow.The development of technologies for all hair types continues to be a primary priority of the research and development teams. For too long, styling tools have been misunderstood and misrepresented in order to fully accommodate varied hair types while preventing heat damage. This investment will develop new lab areas to enhance Dyson's knowledge of worldwide hair kinds and damage, while also supporting the company's efforts to diversify its beauty technology.Dyson\u2019s 2022 Global Hair Study-From Root To Tip and Cortex to CuticleUnderstanding owners is fundamental to the Dyson design process, which is supported by research in hair science. This research and understanding drive our engineering decisions and enable engineers to design machines that produce healthier, more fashionable hair every day, regardless of hair type. Because of Dyson's concern with hair, one of the greatest global hair studies has been compiled. This research studies hair health, hair perceptions, behaviours, and attitudes towards hair styling across 23 markets and 23,000 individuals, allowing Dyson engineers to acquire a greater understanding of actual styling challenges.Key Findings of Dyson 2022 Global Hair StudyHair perceptions & hair health misconceptions:Seven out of ten respondents report that their hair is damaged, citing dandruff, hair loss, and greying as their primary worries. However, these are not concerns about damage. Despite having damaged hair, 67% of respondents believe their locks are healthy.Nonetheless, respondents appear to comprehend what 'healthy' hair looks and feels like, describing it as shining (36%) and smooth (29%), and associating it with a healthy scalp (26%).Dandruff, hair loss, and greying hair are not forms of damage, but scalp and hair growth concerns. Hair damage refers to the breakdown of the hair cuticle and cortex, which can lead to your hair looking frizzy, dull, or snapping off. The best way to achieve healthy hair is through prevention and minimising exposure to the causes of damage. This includes extreme heat which makes hair weaker and more susceptible to breakage and split ends. ~Rob Smith, Dyson Senior Principal Hair ScientistHabits and attitudes towards styling:The Dyson worldwide hair survey finds that eight out of ten individuals wash their hair daily or once every two days.Six in ten consumers altered their at-home grooming procedures following the pandemic, but at least 20 percent have returned to their pre-pandemic behaviours, and this number continues to rise.Due to the pandemic, six out of ten people adjusted their hair care practices, style their hair less (17%) and used fewer hair products (9%).However, there is an ongoing commitment to fundamental hair care and styling. Three to four times per week, hair-holding spray, moisturising treatments, shine enhancers, and regular conditioners are utilised.How often you wash your hair depends on your hair type, level of activity, and environment. Overwashing can be very damaging, stripping the scalp of natural oils while leaving hair dry. Generally, the greasier your hair or scalp is, the more often you can consider washing your hair. Straight hair may feel limp more easily due to oil build-up, while waves, curls, and coils absorb oil and require less washing. Be gentle to your scalp, and use shampoos suited for your hair type. Be mindful to consider the pollution levels in your environment and wash off pollution from hair too, as a combination of pollution and ultraviolet elements can cause increased levels of hair damage. ~Rob Smith, Dyson senior principal hair scientistDyson\u2019s Latest Hair Care TechnologyDyson Corrale straightenerThe Dyson Corral straightener has innovative flexing plate technology, designed to distribute heat and tension evenly across hair strands with each pass, hence decreasing the need for heat.In conjunction with Dyson's 4-cell lithium-ion battery technology, the Dyson Corral straightener provides cordless performance, making it the ideal tool for individuals who wish to care for their hair by minimising heat damage without sacrificing style.

Users may now style the entire head, generating clockwise and counterclockwise curls and waves, without having to swap attachments in the middle of styling.

Combining two attachments into one, the Coanda smoothing dryer conceals flyaways in a single pass without excessive heat and converts them into a powerful dryer with the flip of a switch.A wide-tooth comb attachment designed for curly and coily hair adds shape, volume, and length as the hair dries.

The kanji character abura, which literally means \"oil\" in English but is more commonly used to allude to the Toad Sage in the Naruto universe, can be found on the lower side button.Symbolic Engravings on ButtonsIn addition to its Naruto-themed design, the 1.28-inch AMOLED touchscreen on the Montblanc X Naruto Summit 3 Smartwatch comes with a selection of animated watch faces.

Behold the brand new Solo Stove Mesa-your smokeless tabletop fire pit. It takes portability to a new level and it even fits inside a backpack and can be carried on foot to the campsite.Solo Stove Mesa-Your Smokeless Tabletop Fire PitThe new portable fire pit features the same drum-shaped design as the company's larger models, but comes in a much more compact size that fits on outdoor coffee tables, side tables, and bar tops. As a result of its size, it will also fit nicely on top of your indoor tables, although the company warns against using it indoors due to the fact that it burns extremely hot and creates a substantial fire that is unsafe in enclosed spaces.It Is Easy To LightThe Solo Stove Mesa measures 5.1 x 6.8 inches (diameter x height) and has a cylindrical design that resembles an ice bucket when placed on any table. It functions similarly to its larger counterparts, accepting small pieces of wood that can fit in the main chamber as fuel, although you'll need to cut your firewood into much smaller pieces to fit it in this device. For increased versatility, it also includes an adapter for burning wood pellets, in case you already have a stockpile of these pellets for your backyard pellet grill.Long-lasting Tabletop Fire PitSimilarly, it retains the effective 360-degree airflow design of the larger smokeless fire pits, which draws air through vents in the lower section and sends it up the walls. This allows air to settle at the top of the fire, effectively destroying smoke particles as they burn and allowing for a clean burn that produces large flames without the smoke. The same steady airflow that allows it to ignite quickly also makes it easy to start a raging fire.Your Portable and Lightweight Fire PitI would love to enjoy this while swimming too.The Solo Stove Mesa is made of stainless steel, making it durable, relatively lightweight, and resistant to countless encounters with blazing flames. It also comes in high-temperature ceramic-coated finishes, in case the silver steel colour is a little too plain for your tastes. Note that neither the plain steel nor the ceramic finishes are safe to touch, as both become extremely hot upon contact with skin.Solo Stove Mesa is Available in Many Different ColoursWatch Solo Stove Mesa in ActionThe pit's elevated stand prevents the hot enclosure from coming into direct contact with your table's surface, thereby minimising heat damage. Obviously, hot air will still collect underneath, so heat-sensitive materials should not be placed on top. In addition, the manufacturer warns against using the product beneath patio umbrellas, gazebos, or canopies. The Solo Stove Mesa comes with a recommended price tag of US$119.99 (RM599.99). I really wish I could have one for myself.

The latter is considered the successor to the earlier Surface Pro X series, which also utilised ARM CPUs. The Surface Pro 9 with 5G will this time include the Microsoft SQ 3 CPU, which is essentially a modified version of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 system-on-chip.

Yes! The latest Amazon Kindle Scribe now Includes a stylus for writing. This latest E-ink device from Amazon comes equipped with a stylus pen. You can now scribble notes onto the reader, doddle your ideas, and string together mind maps all in the new Kindle. The availability of a stylus has effectively transformed it into a reading and writing device.Amazon Kindle Scribe Now Includes A Stylus For Writing.It should come as no surprise that this is not the first e-paper device to come equipped with this feature. Over the course of the years, there have been a number of releases that are similar to this one, such as Remarkable, Sony Digital Paper, and Kobo Elipsa, amongst others. On the other hand, if you've been stuck on Amazon's ebook platform and have no desire to switch to another one, taking notes on the same device that you read books on has never before been an option. This, however, is no longer the case.Huge Display For Reading and WritingThe Amazon Kindle Scribe is significantly larger than a standard Kindle. It has a 10.2-inch Paperwhite display with a huge bezel on one side. This should make it comfortable to hold while you read or write on the screen, and it also supports writing with either hand (it works with both the bezel on the left or right side). The display is capable of 16 different levels of grayscale. The screen has a 300ppi pixel density. Amazon claims that this enables users of Kindle Scribe to enjoy a gratifying experience for reading as well as writing.Great Contrast and ClarityAmazon Kindle Scribe is able to retain the contrast and clarity found in earlier Kindles despite offering a larger display than its predecessors. The display also features a coating that eliminates glare and front lighting that can be adjusted, all of which should make it simple to use in a variety of settings, including those with different levels of natural light.The ability to write, which is accomplished through the use of a pen that is included and magnetically connects to the device's edge, is, of course, the primary selling feature of this product. Thanks to the long-overdue Stylus, you can now use Kindle Scribe as your freeform notebook. Create unlimited pages of notes thanks to the rich annotation features. You will certainly love the selection of preloaded templates as well such as checklists, lined paper and grid paper just to name a few.Unleash Your Creativity With The New Kindle Scribe StylusAlternatively, you can use it as a traditional notebook. Notes can also be written directly on books in the Kindle format AZW and AZW3, as well as PDF files; however, sticky notes can only be added to other supported file types. However, according to the company, the ability to write notes in manga books, magazines, and newspapers is not now available.Boost Your Productivity With The StylusPopular ebook formats such as ePub and unprotected MOBI are supported for reading and writing sticky notes on the Amazon Kindle Scribe. Additionally, the Amazon Kindle Scribe is compatible with a variety of document formats, including DOCX, DOC, HTML, EPUB, TXT, RTF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, and BMP. Additionally, AAX audibles are supported by people who like listening to books rather than reading them. If you'd rather have your books read to you while you focus your attention on anything else, you can take advantage of the accessibility features of the VoiceView screen reader, which includes text-to-speech functionality (albeit it's only accessible in English).Finally a Stylus For Your Kindle, right?Because it comes with three different storage capacities namely 16 GB, 32 GB, and 64 GB. You will be able to maintain a substantial amount of reading material and personal notes on this device. The internal battery has a life expectancy of about a month and a half, but the amount of time it will really last depends on how frequently you read or write on the gadget. Suffice it to say that even for heavier users, the amount of time between charges will probably be weeks.Watch Amazon Kindle Scribe in ActionThe Amazon Kindle Scribe supports dual-band Wi-Fi, and it can be charged via a 9W USB-C power converter. So from zero to 100%, it will just take around two and a half hours of charging.

Xiaomi has recently unveiled the latest Pro model of its Smart Band 7 wearable device in conjunction with the introduction of its flagship 12T series of smartphones. It first made its debut in China back in the month of July 2022. At that time, it was disclosed that the smart band would flaunt a completely different design compared to its predecessor as well as contain a number of significant updates.Xiaomi Smart Band 7 Pro With a Bigger DisplayTo begin, the Xiaomi Smart Band 7 Pro comes equipped with a larger 1.64-inch AMOLED rectangular colour display. This gives it the appearance of a smartwatch rather than a regular smartband. This is one of its most distinguishing features. While the screen itself comes with a light sensor that can automatically alter the brightness depending on the lighting conditions, the case comes with a rating of 5 ATM in terms of how resistant it is to water.Huge 1.64-inch AMOLED DisplayThere are over 150 different watch faces available to choose from within the app itself. This is great news for people who enjoy customising their fitness bands. In addition, the Smart Band 7 Pro may be purchased in either Black or Ivory, and you can choose from a number of colours for its straps, including Blue, White, Black, Pink, Orange, and Green.Glamorous DesignDifferent Colours of Straps to Choose FromLeather-like and Silicone StrapsThere are over 110 different sports modes and a variety of health tracking capabilities found onboard the device. Some examples of these functions include monitoring all-day blood oxygen saturation (Sp02), heart rate, sleep, stress, and menstrual cycles. Notifications, music playback, remote camera control, and other features typical of smart bands are, of course, included here as well. Meanwhile, the Smart Band 7 Pro has just been updated to have a built-in GNSS technology, which makes it possible for users to achieve more precise route tracking and speedier location.More than 150 Different Watch FacesBrand New Look and DesignIn terms of the smartband's battery life, Xiaomi claims that a single charge can power the Smart Band 7 Pro for up to 12 days of use. This is unexpected given that the non-Pro version as well as the model that it replaced can endure for approximately 14 days even with regular use. Perhaps the bigger display is a tradeoff for its battery performance.Xiaomi Smart Band 7 Pro Features and SpecsStarting today, October 5, 2022, the new Xiaomi Smart Band 7 Pro may be purchased through the official stores of the brand on Shopee and Lazada, as well as from Xiaomi's own physical stores and authorised retailers around the country.So is it a smartband or a smartwatch?In conjunction with the introduction of Xiaomi Smart Band 7 Pro in the local market, Xiaomi is currently providing the new smartphone at the special early bird price of RM 279 until October 9 (or until supplies run out, whichever comes first). Once this promotion is over, the retail price of Xiaomi Smart Band 7 Pro\u00a0in Malaysia will be reverted back to RM 299.

How about mopping the house then? That's when you need the new Roborock G10: Vacuum and mop robot for your house. After reading this vacuum and mop robot review of mine, you will want to get one as well!Roborock G10 Review: Vacuum and Mop Robot For Your HouseHaving a main day job at the desk and other moonlighting work have really robbed me of my precious time. Sometimes, I have little to no time to clean my home. I could pick up my cordless vacuum or order my robot vacuum to do the vacuuming for me. But when it comes to mopping the whole house, it is a dreaded chore indeed.Those of you who do house chores know that mopping is really time-consuming, messy and not to mention wet! After removing all the visible dirt (to the naked eye) off the floor, you will then fill up a huge bucket of water to start mopping. Obviously, you cannot mop the whole floor in one go. You will need to clean the mop head and squeeze out the dirty water before continuing to mop again.Do I Need a Vacuum and Mop Robot?Then you will also need to change the dirty water. You can't continue to mop using the same dirty water, no? Imagine all the hassle that you have to go through, refilling the bucket with clean water, squeezing out the dirty water from the mop and washing the mop head again and again. At the end of the day, you will be drenched in sweat and probably dirty.With a vacuum and mop robot, you can just sit back and relax while it continues to do all the jobs for you! You could easily free up more of your time to carry out more meaningful tasks and activities at home, such as playing with your children, baking in the kitchen, doing exercise or simply chilling out with your family and watching Netflix. All this can be achieved by me now thanks to my Roborock G10!What is Roborock G10 Vacuum and Mop Robot?For the uninitiated, the Roborock G10 is your personal vacuum and mop robot that can help you sweep and mop the floor for the whole house. It comes with a huge water tank to store your clean water for it to carry out its mop self-washing duties. It will intelligently vacuum and mop your whole house and return to the dock to clean its mop and recharge.Top 12 Features of Roborock G101. Auto Self-Washing MopAs I have aforementioned, with the Roborock G10 you do not have to squeeze and wash your mop head anymore, let alone mop the whole house. Thanks to the advanced Roborock G10's dock (NOT sold separately), all the dirt and dirty water will be washed by the dock itself without you needing to lift a finger.The detachable mop cloth2. Self-Refill Water TankWhat I like about my new Roborock G10 is the fact that it can refill its water tank on its own without needing me to do so manually. Yupe! So the water tank in the robot vacuum will be refilled by the dock's water reservoir tank automatically. In Roborock Q7 Max, I have to add water to the water tank on my own and later the mopping cloth needs to be removed and washed. Each automatic refill of clean water allows Roborock G10 to vacuum and mop for a range of up to 300sqm (3230sgft) which is amazingly vast!3. The Dock for MoppingThe dock of Roborock G10 is where the important magic takes place. Without it, the features of self-cleaning mop and self-refill water tank for the robot vacuum will not be possible. The Roborock G10's dock has been designed with the primary focus on mopping in mind. When you lift the lid of the dock up, you will be greeted by two big containers.So what are the two containers for, you might ask? The container on the right is for the storage of clean water while the one on the left is used for storing dirty water. So instead of you detaching the mopping mat, the dock of Roborock G10 will wash the mat for you. The dirty water will then be stored in the container on the left. Then clean water from the right container will be transferred to fill up the empty tank of the robot vacuum.The huge water tank means you do not need to refill again and again!Both the containers are pretty big, meaning you can store quite a lot of clean water and dirty water at the same time. I only need to refill the clean water and remove the dirty water once every 10 days which is really brilliant. No more notifications every other day to refill the water tank. Having said so, the Roborock G10 vacuum and mop robot is really engineered for those who love to mop their home.4. Powerful SuctionThough the Roborock G10 is a mopping-centric robot vacuum, it does an equally commendable job in vacuuming our whole house as well. Thanks to its strong 2500Pa of suction, all dirt, debris and hair are effortlessly sucked into the built-in dust receptacle complete with an E11 HEPA\u00a0air filter. What goes in, remains trapped.You can adjust its suction power by using the Roborock app or you could allow it to do so automatically. I have witnessed how the Roborock G10 could adjust its own suction power when it faces its nemesis-the carpets. \ud83d\ude02 So it can detect the surface it is cleaning and change the power and intensity of the vacuum and mopping accordingly. Basically, this is a clever vacuum and mop robot that you should really have in your household.5. Sonic Mopping-3000 Times Per MinuteCoupled with the powerful suction of 2500Pa, the Roborock G10 is equipped with Sonic Mopping Technology. On the go, it can vibrate the mop pad at 3,000 times per minute. This equals 50 vibrations per second which is astonishing to say the least. That is why all the stubborn dirt on the floor surface can be scrubbed off effecively.6. Masson AI AlgorithmThanks to integrated Masson AI Algorithm, this vacuum and mop robot can easily avoid obstacles, get out of sticky situations such as cables, legs of tables and extension cords just to name a few. I have seen how agile it is in manouvring among the legs of my chairs in the dining room. So no worries about it bumping your furniture and knocking things off.7. Lifting Up For 2CMAnother interesting feature of Roborock G10 is its ability to \"jack\" itself up for as high as 2CM to vacuum and mop the house, as well as getting over obstacles. This allows the vacuum and mop robot to lift when there are bumps and hurdles lying on the floor such as carpets. Yes. So there will be no water stains on your carpets. It will also be lifted after cleaning to prevent dragging of dirt back across the floor. In standby mode, this uplifting talent of Roborock G10 enables to mop to dry faster and more thoroughly.8. Impressive 3D MappingThe Roborock G10's exceptional LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) system allows it to map your entire home in 3D. I am astounded by how precisely it could map my home in 3D. It's like if you had your own own 3D cartographer for your home. It will partition your home into distinct regions and rooms. The finest aspect is that additional details can be added to the 3D arrangement. You may add floor kinds and even furnishings for an even more precise and realistic portrayal of your home. By the way, you could save up to 4 different maps for Robrocok G10.9. Long Lasting 3 Hours of Battery LifeA robot vacuum is only as effective as its batteries, correct? The Roborock G10 is powered by an enormous 5,200mAh Li-ion battery that may last up to 3 hours or 180 minutes. Yes! Amazingly, this robot vacuum can operate for up to three hours on a single battery. It may cover an area of up to 300 square metres, which is enormous in my opinion. But I doubt most of us need that 3 hours of juice to vacuum and mop our whole house.Based on my repeated observations, it takes my Roborock G10 around 71 minutes (10 minutes more than Roborock Q7 Max) to cover my entire home (30 feet by 50 feet), excluding toilets and a wet kitchen. It must vacuum and mop my two living areas, dining area, dry kitchen, and four bedrooms. It will take approximately 71 minutes to cover 68 square metres of the cleaning area, and the battery will be depleted by approximately 30% for a \"whole house\" cleaning. Not bad at all!10. Mindblowing App ControlUnlike other half-baked, cumbersome and unnecessary apps, the Roborock App is essential. It is so well-designed that it is simple to use. In fact, the Roborock App is so user-friendly that even young children and senior folks can begin using it immediately. Using the app, I can also instruct my Roborock G10 to vacuum and mop our home while I'm at work. While I am away, I am able to observe my robot vacuum in action \"live.\" Occasionally, it is rather exciting to observe its movement on the 3D map.You will have complete control of your Roborock vacuum at a look. There are three modes available for house cleaning: Full, Rooms, and Zones. When you select the \"Full\" option, the entire home will be cleaned automatically. If you select a certain room or zone, your robot vacuum will move to that area and begin cleaning. You can also use the application to create No-Go zones and invisible barriers to seal off rooms and other areas of your home. I find this feature very useful especially when I have set up certain \"Ad-hoc\" tables in the house.I love how we could set No-Go Zone and Invisible Walls!My house floorplan in 3D! \ud83d\ude00In addition, you will have access to all relevant information on your robot vacuum, such as the cleaned area, battery level, cleaning time, and cleaning history, to name a few. The remote control capability allows you to \"pilot\" your robot vacuum cleaner. Using the app, you can also make routines for your robot vacuum to autonomously clean your home at predetermined intervals. You will also be reminded when the water level of your dock is low. Overall, you can accomplish a great deal with the incredible Roborock App.11. Use Your VoiceIf you do not wish to utilise the Roborock App to control your robot vacuum and mop, you can use your sweet voice instead. Using the power of my voice, I can effortlessly instruct my Roborock G10 to vacuum and mop my entire home or a specific room. This robot vacuum and mop supports Google Home, Apple Siri, and Amazon Alexa, as expected from Roborock.12. Child Lock For Your Children and PetsThe Child Lock feature is frequently disregarded by manufacturers of several electrical equipment.

If you have a cat or dog as a pet, you may be assured that their curious probing or caressing will not trigger the robot vacuum, especially when you are not around. Better safe than sorry, no?VERDICT: Is Roborock G10 Worth It?After several days of using my Roborock G10 Max, I must declare that I am completely in love with it. To be honest, this is my first vacuum and mop robot with complete mop auto-cleaning and water tank auto-refill capabilities. Hence, my enthusiasm is understandable. Nonetheless, I must admire the Roborock engineers. So far, I have been unable to detect any flaws in my Roborock G10. It has surpassed my expectations in numerous ways.I must compliment the dock which looks truly beautiful. The choice of colours and designs blend in perfectly with my built-in TV cabinet. Though the dock might look a bit big as it needs to store two plastic containers inside of it, it is aesthetically pleasing to say the least. So kudos again to the designers for ticking the right boxes in the \"fashion\" department.All in all, from its suction power to its superior mopping ability, it appears that everything is ideal. I am ecstatic with the countless innovations that have made it so amazingly good. The Roborock App is extremely user-friendly and packed with additional functions and functionalities to maximise the performance of my vacuum and mop robot.

However, we can ensure that our loved ones get to breathe clean, purified air once we are in the comfort of our homes.Contrary to popular beliefs, a reliable, high-quality air purifier can be affordable as well. You do not have to break the bank to breathe clean air. You do not need to be tied to the ridiculous 5-years monthly payments just to purchase a dependable air purifier. Cosmo air purifier can help you filter the air inside your house for a very relatively cheap price if you ask me.Cosmo Prime Air Purifier VS Cosmo Pro Air PurifierCosmo Air Purifier is competitively priced and there are two models for you to choose from: Cosmo Prime and Cosmo Pro. So which of these two air purifiers should you be purchasing? For starters,\u00a0 there are three distinct differences between them. Cosmo Prime Air Purifier comes with a 3-in-1 HEPA filter while the more advanced Cosmo Pro Air Purifier is equipped with a 5-in-1 HEPA filter.Cosmo Pro Air Purifier with 5-in-1 HEPA filter has additional Anti-Bac Shield Filter and Photocatalyst Filter that Cosmo Prime does not have. Apart from that, I will also recommend you get Cosmo Pro as it has a larger coverage area of 100m\u00b2\u00a0compared to Cosmo Prime's 80m\u00b2 coverage area.Cosmo Pro is fitted with a UVC lamp while Cos Prime does not have one. In terms of pricing after discounts, the Cosmo Pro (RM1,500) is only RM200 more expensive than the price of Cosmo Prime (RM1,299). So it is pretty clear who is the winner here but it all depends on your budget.1. Beautiful and Practical DesignDesigned in Germany, the Cosmo Pro Air Purifier sports a full 360\u00b0 aerodynamic built. Essentially, this design allows air from all directions to be purified. It is very rare that we can get an air purifier that does its air-purifying job well and is a looker at the same time. The Cosmo Pro Air Purifier looks really stunning in white and the top silver metallic finish makes it look even more classy.This combination of pure white and metallic silver gives it a sleek contemporary design. Hence it can blend into any corner of your house easily. You can place it in your living space, bedrooms or even dining area, and it will still look just as good.2. Protective 5-in-1 HEPA FiltersCosmo ensures that their Pro series air purifier is equipped with a state-of-the-art 5-in-1 HEPA filter. Rest assured that harmful tiny particles will be filtered and cleansed. Moreover, there are another extra two layers which serve as disinfectants to help you purify the air. Let's take a deep dive into the 5 different layers that will protect you and your whole family:1. Pre-filterThis is the first layer of defence against the larger particles such as dust, lint, hair and animal fur (cats and dogs). The pore size of this pre-filter is durable thanks to Cosmo's patent which allows it to maintain the pore size. Simply put, it will last longer and air filtration will be more efficient in the long run.2. Anti-Bacteria ShieldAs its name suggests, this layer will act as a shield against bacteria. Known as the Cosmo Anti-Bac Shield, this filter provides a clinical layer of filter that will inhibit the growth of any bacteria. Thanks to the anti-bacteria technology used, rest assured that your chance of getting an infection or developing allergic reactions will be dramatically reduced.3. Medical Grade H13+ HEPA FilterThe third layer of Cosmo's 5-in-1 filters is the medical-grade H13+ HEPA Filter. This filter has been specially created to capture and filter out almost all air pollutants of any size. The HEPA filter will block and eradicate any micron particles, dust mites, bacteria, pet dander and pollen just to name a few. In other words, this is a virtually impregnable fortress to help purify your air.4. Activated Carbon FilterWorried that the smelly odour from outside is seeping into your home? How about odours right within your four walls as well as formaldehyde which can be found in gas stoves, paints and even wooden products? Fret not as the activated carbon made from charcoal can absorb and neutralises all these contaminants to keep you safe and sound.5. Photocatalyst FilterIf you ask me, this Photocatcalyst Filter has got to be one of the coolest features of Cosmo Pro Air Purifier. So how does it work? The electrons generated by the filter will be killed and broken down via oxidation and electrostatic reactions. Eventually, any pollutants will be captured and eliminated by this photocatalyst filter. It is inevitable!3. Intelligent AI Sensor TechnologyA good air purifier without an equally brilliant Artificial Intelligence to complement it will merely be an ordinary machine at best. Equipped with an intelligent PM2.5 Sensor, the Cosmo Pro Air Purifier can detect air pollutants and capture them at an unbelievable rate of 99.7%.There is also an accompanying app from Cosmo to help you know the air in your house even better. After hooking up to your Internet (or WiFi), you will get to see how the quality of air inside your household compared to those outside. You can monitor the air quality inside your house in real-time. A comprehensive analysis of the air you breathe is now at your fingertips. How cool is that right?4. UVC DisinfectionBesides the revolutionary protective 5-in-1 HEPA Filters, Cosmo Pro Air Purifier is also installed with an impressive inner chamber UVC (Ultraviolet-C) lamp that can kill any microbes instantaneously. In other words, the UVC lamp will quickly disinfect your air to ensure you have a clean supply of air to breathe continuously.This powerful UVC lamp emits radiation that will cause irreparable damage to the DNA of harmful microorganisms, rendering them useless. Even the dreaded and harmful Covid-19 virus will be destroyed by this UVC lamp. Do note that this lamp is encased in a shield to keep you safe 100% while doing its job.5. Huge 100m\u00b2\u00a0of CoverageCosmo Pro air purifier has been engineered to purify your house for up to 100m\u00b2 which is really huge if you ask me. Easily every corner of your living space, room or even the whole house can be purified. Its 600m\u00b3 of rated CADR makes it an ideal air purifier for the whole family. Now you can protect everyone inside your home.6. Zero-Pressure Touch PanelApart from providing purified air for you and your family, Cosmo Pro Air Purifier also comes with other amazing features. I really like its Zero-pressure Touch panel on top of the machine which gives you more control of the air you are breathing. Adjust any settings easily via the responsive LED screen display.7. Ultra Quiet Fan With 3-Speed ModeBesides being your air purifier, Cosmo Pro can also double up as your fan. You can choose from 3 different speeds of the fan to give you that cooling breeze during the hot sweltering weather. So you will be enjoying cool, purified air on demand. The sound of the fan, even when the maximum speed is selected, is virtually negligible at only 20dB. So it is as soft as a whisper.8. Child LockIf you have inquisitive children in your house, you can activate child lock to prevent them from accidentally changing any of the settings you have made. I believe this feature can also be effective against mischievous pets such as dogs and cats. So set it and forget about it.What Is the Price of Cosmo Air Purifier\u00a0 Air Filter Replacement?Naturally, we all want to find out the price of Cosmo Air Purifier air filter replacement, right? The good news is the Cosmo Pro 5-in-1 HEPA filter is really cheap with a price tag of only RM240. The filter could last at least 12 months to 18 months depending on the air quality in your household, and of course, your usage.When do you need to change the filter? Fret not as the air purifier will notify you via the filter reset indicator. When it starts blinking, that's when you need to replace it. Once you have swapped a new filter, hold the button for at least 5 seconds and voila your air purifier can continue to deliver fresh purified air for you and your family.What is Cosmo Air Purifier Malaysia Price?As I have mentioned, the Cosmo Pro Air Purifier is certainly one of the best air purifiers in its class and price range. With a price tag of only RM1,500 (after discount), it is definitely a steal. You can even opt for instalment plans (3 payments of RM500) making it affordable to own. If you are looking for a relatively cheap and reliable air purifier, then this is the one for you. Free delivery is included as well.Should I Buy Cosmo Air Purifier?The answer is a resounding yes. This good-looking Cosmo Pro Air Purifier is really affordable compared to others with similar features and functionalities. When you combine its price (RM1,500) plus 5 years of filter change (RM240x5=RM1,200), it will only be RM2,700 for 5 years of clean air. More importantly, you are not being tied to any unfair contract. Why not right?With so many features and proven air-purifying capabilities, I will highly recommend Cosmo Pro Air Purifier for those who want to start breathing purified air inside their homes without breaking their banks. With 20 days of trial and 5 years of warranty, you really have nothing to lose. It will be an investment that pays huge dividends later in terms of our health and wellbeing.

However, choosing an affordable pair of earbuds that can still deliver high-quality audio is an entirely different story. Introducing the new Huawei FreeBuds SE which aims to do exactly just that and more.Huawei FreeBuds SE ReviewJudging from my previous experience of using Huawei's smartphones, earphones, and Huawei Band 7, I expect Huawei FreeBuds SE to live up to its reputation as a Huawei product. So far, these new budget-friendly earbuds have been doing a pretty decent job to let me enjoy my daily music, podcasts, Netflix binge-watching during lunch break, and of course for my video calls as well as my Zoom sessions with colleagues. Simply put, these earbuds execute all the basic tasks pretty decently.5 Reasons Why I Love Huawei FreeBuds SE1. Fit ComfortablyUnlike other earbuds which will cause my ears to ache after prolonged use, Huawei FreeBuds SE is surprisingly comfortable. I believe this is due to its semi-in-ear design which has been engineered to the contours of my outer ears snuggly. In fact, I do not even feel any pressure on my ear canals. Sometimes, the FreeBuds are so lightweight that I don't even know they are stuck in my ears.Besides the design, I believe the silicon ear tips play a vital role as well to ensure the earbuds could be worn comfortably for a long period of time. You will have 3 different sizes of silicon tips and I am glad I could find the perfect ones for me. I am sure you can easily find your perfect fit too.2. Cyrstal Clear Audio QualityFor the price that it is offering, the audio quality of Huawei FreeBuds SE is really top-notch. You can enjoy crystal clear sound thanks to the combination of a 10mm dynamic driver plus an ultra-sensitive polymeric diaphragm. You can even pick up any subtle vibrations that provide the rich texture of audio for your ears.You can indulge in all your music sung by your favourite artists as a balanced tri-channel audio framework will emphasize their vocals. Hence, it feels like you are listening to your idols singing next to you.3. Noise Cancellation CallsIt will be irritating to hear noises when I am making a call. I am glad that my Google Meet sessions have been noise-free thanks to the dual-mic beamforming technology. I notice that when I hook up my Huawei FreeBuds SE during video-conferencing, I enjoy crystal clear calls.My colleagues mentioned that my voice is now clearer on my end. Apparently, the earbuds could differentiate my voice from the ambient sound around me quite accurately. I have tried making video calls in crowded places and the noise cancellation is still reliably good.4. Low LatencyIf you are a gamer like me, you might have suffered \"missing sounds\" or \"lagged audio\" due to latency. Huawei FreeBuds SE employs Bluetooth 5.2 technology which can significantly reduce latency. So far, I have yet to hear any sound going MIA while I am gaming or watching my favourite series on Netflix. 2 Thumbs up for sure for this!Watching Netflix quietly at midnight \ud83d\ude025. Battery Life of Up to 24 HoursThe whole package of Huawei FreeBuds SE has a rated battery life of 24 hours including the case. For music playback, the earbuds could last for 6 hours before needing a recharge. I have not really tried its limit for voice calls but the company claims that you can talk non-stop for 4 hours which I doubt many of us would, no?I have put the rated battery life to test and I could actually get 23 hours of combined \"juice\". So if you are a heavy user, most like you will only need to recharge your case once every 2 days, which is pretty decent.Should I Buy Huawei FreeBuds SE?All in all, I am really satisfied with the latest budget-friendly earbuds from Huawei. I love its lightweight design as well as its comfortable fitting. Practically, these hassle-free earbuds will excel in your gaming-playing, movie-watching and video-calling. It does all of its basic jobs perfectly. Available in 2 different colours white and Baby Blue, it will certainly give you the best bang for your money. With a price tag of only RM199, it is a steal if you ask me.

To the uninitiated, Roborock is a relatively new brand in Malaysia, having only arrived in Malaysia in the year 2020. However, the market for robotic vacuum cleaners has experienced tremendous growth in 2021. Here is an interview with Joan Hu, Director of Overseas Southeast Asia, answering questions about the past, present, and future of Roborock in the APAC region. Therefore, we asked five questions, and here are her responses.5 Questions about Roborock's Past, Present, and Future!1. Roborock recorded strong growth in China since its introduction. What do you think contributed to this?In the robot vacuum market back in 2014, most available products only focused on the basic needs that come with a vacuum \u2013 cleaning. We saw an opportunity to fulfill needs and wants that consumers don\u2019t know they have yet. Hence, we grew our R&D department with a team of engineers, scientists, manufacturing experts, and designers \u2013 all vital to creating products that truly fit our users\u2019 lifestyles.Joan Hu-Roborock's Director of Overseas Southeast Asia2. Any new vacuum launches this year?We have just launched the Roborock S7 MaxV in early 2022. This is an upgrade of our popular Roborock S7, with ReactiveAI 2.0 Obstacle Avoidance System, the S7 MaxV recognizes objects in its path more accurately and adapts quickly to clean around them, regardless of lighting conditions. Also, features Roborock's acclaimed VibraRise\u00ae technology, a combination of sonic mopping with an automatic mop lift designed to transition smoothly over contrasting surfaces, while delivering effective high-intensity scrubs to tackle surface dirt.That\u2019s not all, we also launched the Q7 Max - the latest lineup to our premium Q-series, a range of robot vacuums that combines proven features of our flagship S-Series, including LiDAR navigation, multi-level mapping, and customizable app controls, making automated cleaning now an affordable luxury.We also took a step further this year with multiple dock launches - the Auto Empty Dock and Auto Cleaning Dock. With these, we aim to elevate the smart home cleaning experience for our consumers by minimizing the usual manual operations needed to use a robot vacuum.3. How does a company based in China keep up with that many varieties across so many markets at the same time?Roborock is currently available in over 40 markets. Expansion requires a very large amount of localization. When we bring technology developed in another region to a different one, we have to make changes or localize the technology to suit the needs of the particular market. We need to listen to every market\u2019s needs \u2013 in terms of customers and partners \u2013 in order to be able to add value to them.4. What are Roborock\u2019s aspirations and goals for the local market and how do you plan to achieve this?While we continue to grow our online presence, we hope to be able to provide a service center to better serve our existing customers. We also aim to bring in more of Roborock\u2019s latest products as our APAC markets are key to us.5. Other than markets you have already entered, what is Roborock\u2019s plan and next steps?Our investment is not just in channels, brand building, or positioning of our Roborock products, but we are focused on our customers. Our rapid business growth in each market is contributed by quality products with major high innovation features at reasonable price points, continuous innovation, and user engagement. In the future, we aim to go further via collaborations with strategic partners ignited through marketing efforts."} {"title": "Roborock Q7 Max Review-The Robot Vacuum For Your Home", "body": "Vacuum cleaners are slowly replacing brooms to help us clean our home.

Besides our jobs, most of our time has been snatched by our daily commute. By the time we arrive home after the bumper-to-bumper traffic, it is relatively late already. You need to prepare dinner and your home needs to be cleaned; Don't you think it will be ideal if someone helps you to clean up your floor while you do the cooking?What you will get inside the box!Introducing Roborock Q7 Max which can help you to vacuum your whole house and mop it even when you are not around. Yes! So every time when you reached your home, you will be greeted by your shiny, spick, and span floor. Roborock Q7 Max is geared with many unbelievable robot vacuum technologies, delivering uncompromising, effective, and amazing ease of use. It is the robot vacuum that you didn't know you need.Top Ten Features of Roborock Q7 Max1. Mind-blowing Suction PowerContrary to popular belief, a robot vacuum cleaner can have serious suction power, especially the Roborock Q7 Max. With an incredulous maximum suction power of 4,200PA, the Roborock Q7 Max can easily drag any dirt hiding in carpets. Even those stubborn debris hiding in floorboard cracks have nowhere to hide.Thanks to its super durable grime removal brush, rest assured that dust can be easily flicked into the vacuum stream. The long-lasting all-rubber brush is also effective in resisting hair tangles. The Roborock Q7 Max has also been engineered to roam around your home without any problem. It could move across different panes while staying close to the surface to clean our floor effectively.Roborock Q7 Max's main durable red brushRoborock Q7 Max's white side brush2. Vacuum and Mop at The Same TimeUnlike your ordinary vacuum cleaners, the Roborock Q7 Max can vacuum and mop at the same time. In other words, besides vacuuming your floor it can also mop it simultaneously. Wow! Unbeknown to most of us, vacuuming alone might not be enough to make sure that your house is completely clean, right? This mopping feature can remove any remaining fine dirt that vacuuming alone might have missed.Detachable mop cloth bracket2-in-1 Dustbin + Water TankEasily remove the dustbin tank to empty it.It also doubles up as a water tank for mopping!The Roborock Q7 Max comes with a huge electronic pump for it to mop your floors. Choose from the 30 different water flow levels to finetune to your different mopping needs and floor types. I am pleasantly surprised its large 350ml tank can mop up to 240 square metres of your floor. Talking about twin cleaning power!3. PreciSense Precision LiDARUnder the hood of Roborock Q7 Max is its amazing PreciSense Precision LiDAR. For the uninitiated, LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) allows a machine to view its surroundings in 3D. The PreciseSense Precision LiDAR in the Q7 Max takes it one step further by allowing it to \"precisely sense\" its surroundings with even greater accuracy. In other words, the robot vacuum can now see and understand what is around it.The movements of my Roborock Q7 MaxEquipped with PreciSense Precision LiDAR, the Roborock Q7 Max is so intelligent that it can navigate easily in your house without any problem. I have witnessed first-hand how exceptional this robot vacuum is, avoiding obstacles and identifying furniture in our house as it cleans our floors. It's like it can move around your house like a real human! As it vacuums and mops your floors, it remembers everywhere that it has gone.4. Incredible 3D MappingThanks to its extraordinary LiDAR system, the Roborock Q7 Max can map your whole house in 3D like a pro. I am utterly impressed by how detailed it could map my house in 3D. It's like you have your very own cartographer for your home in 3D. It will accurately divide your house into different spaces and rooms. The best part is, that you can add more details to the 3D layout recorded. For an even more accurate and realistic representation of your house, you can add the floor types and even furniture.5. Huge Battery That Lasts For 3 HoursA robot vacuum is as good as its battery, no? The good news is the Roborock Q7 Max is powered by a huge 5,200mAh Li-ion battery that can last up to 3 hours or 180 minutes. Yes! On a single charge, this robot vacuum can work its magic for up to 3 hours which is stunning. It can cover an area of up to 300 square metres which is really, really huge if you ask me.Home Base aka Charging DockBased on my multiple observations, my Roborock Q7 Max needs around 62 minutes on average to cover my whole house (30 feet x 50 feet) minus the toilets and a wet kitchen. It needs to vacuum my 2 living spaces, dining room, dry kitchen and 4 bedrooms. In total (refer to the screenshot), it will take around 62 minutes to cover 67 metres squares of the cleaning area and it only uses around 25% of its battery for a complete, \"full house\" vacuum. Amazing indeed!6. Intuitive App ControlUnlike many gadgets and products that have clunky and redundant accompanying apps, the Roborock App is a must-have. It is so well-designed that using it is a breeze. In fact, the Roborock App is very intuitive that even children or senior citizens can start using it on the fly. Thanks to the app, I can also command my Roborock Q7 Max to clean the house while I am working in the office. While away, I can watch my robot vacuum in action \"live\". Sometimes, it is quite fascinating to watch it move around on the 3D map.Connecting Roborock Q7 Max to the appAt a glance, you can have full control of your Roborock vacuum. There are 3 modes when it comes to cleaning your house: Full, Rooms and Zones. When you choose the \"Full\" option, it will automatically clean the whole house for you. Should you choose any specific room or zone, your robot vacuum will move to the designated area and start cleaning. You can also use the app to set No-Go zones and invisible walls to seal off rooms or any areas in your house. You don't want the vacuum to \"clean up\" your jigsaw pieces, no?Enable map saving to unlock even more functionalitiesYou can command your Roborock to clean certain room(s) or zone(s) only!You will also get all the information that you need for your robot vacuum such as its completed cleaning area, battery level, cleaning time and cleaning history just to name a few. If you want to \"pilot\" your robot vacuum, you can do so by using the remote control feature. You can also set up schedules to have your robot vacuum to clean up your house automatically at set periods of time by using the app. All in all, you can really do a lot by using the app.7. Voice ControlIf you do not want to use the app to control your robot vacuum, you can actually just your voice. Yupe! With the power of my voice, I can easily command my Roborock Q7 Max to clean up my whole house or any specific room or space. As expected of Roborock, this robot vacuum supports Google Home, Apple Siri and Amazon Alexa.8. Child Lock To Keep Your Kids and Pets SafeThe Child Lock feature is often overlooked by many electrical appliances. Thankfully, you will have a dedicated Child Lock button on the Roborock vacuum. This feature will prevent any accidental start by your clumsy and curious little kids. If you have a pet cat or dog at home, you will have complete peace of mind, knowing that their inquisitive poking or touching will not activate the robot vacuum. I am glad that my Roborock Q7 Max is safe for both my kids and pets.9. Washable FilterA good vacuum cleaner will always be installed with a reliable filter to help you trap all the dust, particulates, and hair inside the robot vacuum itself. Roborock has gone one step further by developing a washable filter that can last longer. So you do not need to be worried about replacing it with a new one all the time.10. Worry-Free RoamingEssentially, this Roborock Q7 Max of mine can roam on its own in my house without me needing to supervise it. It can move freely and safely in my house thanks to its Sensient sensor array. In other words, this robot vacuum is equipped with a suite of sensors which include LiDAR, cliff sensors, accelerometers, and bumpers just to name a few.It will automatically return to its charging dockThe onboard sensors will ensure that the robot vacuum will not roll off steps, get trapped, or worse still, slammed into walls. You can say that it has been designed to stay safe while cleaning your house at the same time. So when you invest in a Roborock Vacuum, rest assured that it will be your long-term companion for your household.Verdict-Should You Get A Roborock Q7 Max?After using my Roborock Q7 Max for several days, I must admit that I have totally fallen in love with it. To be fair, this is my very first robot vacuum so my affection for it is understandable. Then again, I must applaud the engineers from Roborock. So far, I could not find any fault with my Roborock Q7 Max. It has exceeded my expectations in many different ways.From its suction power to its cleaning prowess, everything appears to be perfect. I am delighted with the innumerable technologies that have made it so unbelievably good. The Roborock App itself is very easy to use and packs lots of extra features and functionalities to bring out the best in my robot vacuum.

Not only does it save you money, but you also prefer to eat healthier because you have complete control over the ingredients. Introducing the SunnySide Solar-Powered Self Heating & Cooling Lunchbox. Bear in mind that you must refrigerate your meal to keep it fresh, then reheat it in the microwave when it's time to eat. Will you be able to do this in your working place or space?SunnySide Solar-Powered Self Heating & Cooling LunchboxIf you are at an office with a well-stocked pantry, but not so much if you are in the field and eating your lunch in a neighbouring park. The SunnySide intends to alter this.\u00a0SunnySide Lunchbox is a food container marketed as a \"solar-powered smart lunchbox\". It has all the required components to either heat or cools your food as it rests inside. That means you can chill your food as you go about your day, and then reheat it just before your dinner without a pantry.SunnySide Lunchbox Features and FunctionsThe SunnySide Lunchbox is essentially a food container that measures 9 x 3.3 x 4.6 inches (width x height x depth). It has a volume capacity of 1.1 litres, so it can carry a normal-sized dinner. Whether you are packing a large amount of Nasi Lemak, a few sandwiches, or a variety of fruits for lunch, you should be able to do so. It has built-in insulation for passively adjusting the food's temperature, so it's like placing food in a little cooler.How To Use SunnySide LunchboxThe SunnySide Lunchbox is equipped with both heating and cooling devices that can be used to actively regulate the temperature inside. A small display strip with capacitive controls allows you to choose the desired temperature, at which point the device will activate its internal components to maintain it.How You Can Use SunnySide LunchboxWe have no idea what type of cooling element can fit in something this small and still effectively reduce the temperature (we're guessing it's a series of fans), but we'll take their word for it. According to the manufacturer, the cooling elements cool the air sufficiently to keep food fresh for the majority of the day, while the heating elements can heat food to 75 degrees Celsius in approximately seven minutes.What SunnySide Lunchbox Can Do For You?The SunnySide is powered by a 10,000mAh battery that can be charged by a standard USB connection or the solar panel embedded into the lid. A single charge of the battery is sufficient to power the cooling function for up to 20 hours or the heating function for seven cycles. There is also a USB port for charging gadgets from the onboard battery, in case you're out in the field and need more juice for your smartphone.There is An App For Your SunnySide LunchboxThe container includes a locking mechanism that ensures a leak-proof seal, modular dividers (for separating various food items), and a companion app that can be used to modify the temperature of the container at any time. Despite all the electronics inside, the food container is dishwasher-safe, so you can just place it in the dishwasher when you return home.\u00a0A SunnySide Kickstarter campaign is presently active. Reservations can be made for pledges beginning at $69.

This is especially true for electronic gadgets such as mobile phones, tablets and fitness bands just to name a few.\u00a0 So which electronic gadgets depreciated the least this year in 2022? Trends reveal that certain electronic devices retain their worth substantially better than others. This occurs for a variety of reasons, including the demand a product generates and the brand's trust and reputation.Which Electronic Gadgets Depreciated The LeastSellCell, the leading price comparison site for tech products in the United States, has released its 2022 Annual Tech Value Report, which examines the resale value of new or recently launched tech and compares it to the MSRP, providing valuable insight into the market leaders (and those brands which lag behind) with regard to value retention.Due to its advantageous position, SellCell can provide a precise and rigorous valuation of technology, as it has access to resale pricing from 40+ tech buyers. Since its inception, SellCell has studied price data from this variety of buyback providers to estimate the current resale value. SellCell solely monitors prices from official independent buyback sellers, eliminating any grey-market price inflation and thereby reflecting a device's true value.Most electronic devices have the most rapid depreciation in the first two months after release. After this point, gadgets will not recover much, if any, of their value and will instead experience a sluggish drop over the next twelve months. In terms of the future worth of a device, the first two months, therefore, establish the benchmark. This research provides insight into the most rapidly and slowly depreciating technologies since their introduction.Main Takeaway About This Depreciation ReportSony's PS5 Digital Edition has had the slowest depreciation since its release 18 months ago. With a value decline of only 8.0 per cent and a monthly average depreciation of 0.4%, Sony is in a strong position.Microsoft is also seeing success. The Series X has only lost 21.0% of its value since its introduction, or an average of 1.2% per month. The Series S is not far behind, losing 31,4% of its MSRP at launch, or 1.7% each month.In seven months, the Nintendo Switch OLED's depreciation rate of 31.4% is identical to that of the Xbox Series S. However, Nintendo's 4.5% monthly depreciation portrays a different image.Regarding cellphones, Apple's iPhone 13 lineup performs the best, with an average depreciation rate of only 27.5% across all models. This amounts to a monthly depreciation rate of only 3.4% on average.In terms of value retention, Apple's iPhone SE 2022 edition disappoints with an abnormally high depreciation rate of 47.1% (an average of 23.6% in the two months since its release).With only seven months under its belt, Google's Pixel 6 has depreciated by an average of 48.5% across all smartphones, with a monthly decline of 6.9%. Nonetheless, this is not the poorest performing handset.Samsung's S22 series is the worst-performing smartphone lineup, with a depreciation rate of 51.6% in only three months since launch, averaging a horrifying 17.2% monthly fall in value.Apple essentially dominates the tablet market, with its best-performing iPad Pro 11 3rd Gen (2021) losing 42.3% since its debut 12 months ago or 3.5% per month.As with the iPhone SE 2022, the iPad Air 5th Gen (2022) exhibits terrible value retention, having lost 32.1% of its value in the two months since its launch, or an average of 16.0% per month.Since its release barely two months ago, the value of Samsung's Galaxy Tab S8 has dropped by a staggering 65.4%.In the war of wearables, Apple's Watch Series 7 has depreciated by 58.2% over seven months (8.3% per month) since its release. In nine months, the value of the Samsung Watch 4 declined by 76.0 % (8.4% per month). Thus, an almost identical monthly performance for both parties.Summary of Electronic Gadgets DepreciationSellCell evaluated the data to determine which electronic devices had the best overall performance in the months following their individual debuts. Note that, for the sake of this research, SellCell has analysed values for electronic devices in like-new condition from over 40 reputable buyback suppliers.The table above illustrates some of the most and least effective technologies of the past 18 months. Given SellCell's prior research on value retention in the smartphone market, some of the results shown here are quite predicted, but there are also a few surprises.Even 18 months after its release, the PS5 has experienced a total depreciation of only 8.1% or a $30 decline in value. This may come as a surprise to some. However, is this truly so shocking? As with every other tech company, Sony had semiconductor shortages, transportation problems, and a variety of other concerns during the COVID crisis.Sony, on the other hand, released a system mid-COVID, which, due to the aforementioned challenges, resulted in limited availability at launch. The result of this is greater demand, especially considering the console shortage. Sony is still not matching this demand, hence the PS5's resale value remains extremely high.Microsoft's Xbox Series X and S cannot compete with Sony. The Series X, which has likewise been on the market for 18 months, has lost 21.0% of its initial launch value, while the Series S has lost 31.4%. Given the length of time that has transpired since launch, we may still consider this a favourable outcome for Microsoft.The Nintendo ship appears to be sinking the quickest among the three major consoles. It debuted the Switch OLED last year, and despite being only seven months old, its value has decreased by an unimpressive 31.4%. While you may compare this to the Series S, keep in mind that Microsoft's digital-only console has 11 months on the Switch OLED, making the Switch OLED the worst performer month-to-month.Game Consoles Have The Most Retention ValuesBy delving deeper into the monthly numbers, we can determine the respective strengths and weaknesses of each brand. This is where the curveballs appear, with unexpected outcomes.The consoles have been covered, but what about smartphones? As expected based on SellCell's prior study on smartphone value retention, the iPhone 13 series ranks highest in terms of value retention, as it has since its introduction. In eight months, the iPhone 13 has only lost 27.5% of its value across all models, demonstrating that purchasing an iPhone is a prudent investment.Given the sustained success of the iPhone 13 lineup, now may be a good time to consider trading in your iPhone 13 if you've decided it's not for you or if you've discovered a device you'd rather use as your daily driver. The easiest method to obtain the highest price for your iPhone is to sell it as soon as possible, as its worth will continue to decline in the future.Compare this performance to that of Samsung, and you will see the difference. In the three months that the S22 range has been offered, its models have lost an average of 51,6% of their value, or 17.2% per month.In spite of this, the 2022 iPhone SE has performed poorly since its launch two months ago, shedding 47.1% (an average of 23.6% over the past two months) of its initial launch value. If there is insufficient demand, values will plunge, and it appears that the most recent version of the iPhone SE has not fared as well as Apple had planned in comparison to earlier iPhone models.Sony is rarely mentioned in smartphone analyses of this nature. Nevertheless, the brand reappears in this data with the Xperia 1 III. It may have depreciated by 68.5%, but this is an average monthly depreciation of 7.6%, which is not horrible considering Apple and Samsung dominate the smartphone industry.The Pixel 6 has not fared much better, shedding 48.5% of its value over seven months, or 6.9% per month. If Samsung's S22 range continues to decline, it may be valued less than the Xperia 1 III at the same point in its life cycle, seven months after its release. So that you can see just how close this competition is. Sony has scheduled a June release date for the upcoming Xperia 1 IV, which may result in a stronger release.Tablets tell a similar tale. The Pro 11 (3rd Gen), the Pro 12.9 (5th Gen), and the Mini (6th Gen) iPads released by Apple in 2021 have performed well since their release, losing only 42.3%, 45.3%, and 35.2% of their values, respectively. Unfortunately, the 2022 iPad Air 5th Gen has not been as successful. The fact that the latest Apple tablet lost 32,1 per cent of its value in just two months demonstrates that demand was lacking and places it in second place behind the Mini (6th Gen), a tablet that is six months older.Watches also make an appearance. The Galaxy Watch 4 has lost an average of 8.4 per cent of its value per month since its release, while the Apple Watch Series 7 has lost an average of 8.3 per cent per month.More Depreciation Over The Next 12 MonthsGiven that Sony is in a solid position with its PS5, if not its prior Xperia 1 III, perhaps it can pull a rabbit out of the hat with the Xperia 1 IV, although it won't match the PlayStation 5's performance in terms of value retention.Despite the comparatively poor performance of the iPhone SE 2022 and iPad Air (Gen 5), Apple continues to dominate the smartphone and tablet industries, with its flagship devices storming the rough sea of smartphones, Apple riding the crest of that specific wave.As you can see, though, electronic devices lose their value rapidly, with few exceptions. Therefore, if you want to sell your phone or any other piece of technology, it will always be in your best interest to move swiftly, as the value will continue to decrease with each passing day."} {"title": "Midea Xiaowei-Robot Butler For Your Home", "body": "Everyone!

The Core i3 chip in this series is from the less powerful U-series, whereas the Core i5 chip is from the more capable H35 series. This is a bit odd.

In fact, USB-C port appears to be absent on the RedmiBook 15.

In this price range, it will likely compete with the Honor MagicBook X15, MagicBook 14, and Huawei MateBook D15.

If you are a Naruto fan like me, immediately you would have noticed the striking headband metal badge for the camera clusters, right? In addition to featuring additional design aspects that pay respect to the manga series, the special edition smartphone also includes a Naruto scroll bag. Yes! The iconic scroll bag! OMG!Realme X Naruto Special Edition SmartphoneThe Realme X Naruto Special Edition Smartphone\u00a0makes its debut in China today (May 26, 2022). Realme has already revealed several images of the new collector bundle prior to its debut. So fans are really, really excited about the release of this Naruto-themed smartphone. However, it will be ideal if this collaboration is unleashed in Japan instead.The Partially Concealed\u00a0Realme X Naruto smartphone!The camera bump on the gadget itself is covered by a metal-looking plate that spans the entire width. Yeah! So this is the metal plate that appears on the headband of all the ninjas. You'll notice a Konohagakure-representing leaf symbol and Realme x Naruto branding directly beneath it. I have yet to get a glimpse of the remainder of the exterior. Hopefully, it will be equally as good as the camera bump, right? Guess we will find out real soon.Who Doesn't\u00a0Want a Naruto-themed Smartphone?The ninja scroll bag is likely the most intriguing aspect of the limited edition kit. It is unclear whether this is a bag that can be used to carry little stuff, like a mini duffel bag. Especially with its leather-like texture and straps, it appears quite nice. I do hope that it is waterproof and durable like my HyperGear duffel bag. Then, this will be cool and pragmatic merchandise!Realme X Naruto Duffel BagI wonder if it is waterproofThe Realme X Naruto Special Edition Smartphone appears to be based on the Realme GT Neo 3 that was announced in China and India a few months ago. The GT Neo 3 sports a huge 6.7-inch Full HD+ AMOLED screen. It comes with a relatively good 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it is powered by a 5nm Mediatek Dimensity 8100 5G chip that can be configured with as much as 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage.This Naruto-themed Smartphone is Based on Realme GT Neo 3As for photography, the main camera on the GT Neo 3 is equipped with a 50MP Sony IMX766 sensor, while an 8MP ultra-wide-angle camera and a 2MP macro camera are also included. Flip it to the front and you will get a tiny cutout with a 16-megapixel selfie camera. In addition to stereo speakers, the device supports Hi-Res Audio and Dolby Atmos. Surely, you can binge-watch all your naruto animes and movies here.Are you a Naruto Fan?The smartphone is powered by a 5,000mAh battery that enables 80W SuperDart rapid charging over USB-C. Realme says that the included 80W charger can charge the phone from 0 to 50 per cent in just 12 minutes. Intriguingly, there is apparently a model that enables an even more ridiculous 150W SuperDart charge, which is said to achieve a 50 per cent charge in under 5 minutes. However, the 150W variant's battery capacity is reduced to 4,500mAh. In India, the gadget ships preinstalled with Android 12 and the Realme UI 3.0 skin.Is This The \"Real\"\u00a0Realme X Naruto Smartphone?What say you?Unfortunately, the\u00a0Realme X Naruto Special Edition Smartphone\u00a0looks to be China-exclusive for the time being. I do hope that we can somehow import this to Malaysia, right? In China, the basic GT Neo 3 costs CNY 1,999 (about RM1,399) for the 80W configuration with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage. The more expensive 150W model with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage is priced at CNY 2,599. (about RM1,799). Oh my! Both the models are freaking cheap for a Naruto-themed smartphone. I need one!Images source: Digital Trends"} {"title": "Pokemon X Samsung Galaxy Buds 2", "body": "Another partnership between the Pokemon franchise and the South Korean technology giant Samsung is now underway. This time it is the Pokemon X Samsung Galaxy Buds 2. This comes after the announcement of\u00a0you guessed it-Samsung X Pokemon Galaxy Z Flip 3. Though for this partnership for TWS earbuds, the collaboration is somewhat limited if you ask me. However, I am sure Pokemon will still be happy to see their favourite pocket monsters around.Pokemon X Samsung Galaxy Buds 2Unlike the Galaxy Z Flip 3 smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 are not themed, which is a significant missed opportunity. Instead, it receives a Poke Ball-themed case for its original Galaxy Buds 2 casing.Not only is this another missed chance, but it is also quite impractical. This is because opening the Poke Ball does not reveal the earbuds' case. You actually have to open another case (which is the Galaxy Buds 2 original case) first before you can get your earbuds. Something similar to the Razer Hammerhead Pikachu edition, where the original case has been replaced with a Poke Ball, would have made more sense. Perhaps this has been a design error on Samsung's part or just a sloppy copy-and-paste job by the designers?This Collaboration Feels IncompleteThe fact that the sole Poke Ball option is the standard one is a further squandered opportunity. It would have been desirable to have other upgrade variations, such as the Great or Ultra Balls. Those who purchase the special edition Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 can still select from the five original colours contained within the Poke Ball.You Have to Open 2 Cases to Get Your EarbudsAlong with the Poke Ball, purchasers will also receive a random Pokemon sticker. These include, among others, Pikachu, the three Kanto starters, and Mew. As I have aforementioned, this might be the merchandise that Pokemon fans should kinda lay off due to the extent of the collaboration. Getting an impractical Poke Ball together with a slapped sticker is not doing the Pokemon justice, no?You Get Stickers For Your Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 CaseThe Pokemon special edition of the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 is listed with a price of KRW134000 (RM469) on the company's Korean website. Despite the fact that the item is displayed and priced, it is not yet available. Even if they become available, the likelihood is that they will sell out immediately. Additionally, it is unclear if this will be made accessible elsewhere in the future, but it is likely that it will be limited to the brand's native market.

DJI Mini 3 Pro has unbelievably been incorporated with tonnes of autonomous intelligence while still tipping the scale at under 250 grams. It is official that DJI Mini 3 Pro Drone comes with better cameras and gimbal. This new mini drone retains the company's legacy of regulation compliance while gaining additional clever features from its much larger 4K quadcopters.DJI Mini 3 Pro Drone Comes With Better Cameras and GimbalDJI Mini 3 Pro possesses a revised appearance compared to previous generations, with larger propellers and a more aerodynamic body tilt, but it retains the same tiny size, folding arms, and 249-gram weight that has always been its primary selling points. This means that it is still incredibly portable, allowing you to travel with a compact drone that offers high-end functionality traditionally associated with much larger models.Better Cameras For 4K Video at 60fpsThe DJI Mini 3 Pro is equipped with a bigger 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor and an 82.1-degree field-of-view lens, allowing it to capture 4K video at 60 fps and 48MP stills. It provides 4K HDR recording, however, this reduces the maximum frame rate to 30 fps. However, if you need HDR's more immersive colours, you have the choice to use them. The camera is linked with a redesigned three-axis gimbal that has the same stabilisation capabilities as its predecessors and can spin a full 90 degrees, allowing you to take the film from a portrait angle that is excellent for social media.Capture 48MP Still PhotosIt keeps the same safety and autonomous shooting features as its predecessor, so it should be just as simple to operate. It is now equipped with forward, backward, and downward-pointing sensors that allow it to detect impediments in three directions, allowing it to not only identify potential obstructions in its route but also autonomously avoid them using the Advanced Pilot Assistance System. These sensors will also allow the quadcopter to track a subject and maintain it centred in the frame, resulting in a more intelligent aerial photography quad.DJI Mini 3 Pro Flight Time DurationExtend Your Flight Time With Optional BatteryAdditionally, the DJI Mini 3 Pro increases the flying time from 31 minutes to 34 minutes, letting you capture more footage between charges. This time around, they are also selling a larger alternative battery that can extend the flying time to 47 minutes. It also increases the working range to 7.5 miles, allowing you to fly the drone further than before.DJI RC For Complete Droning ExperienceThe DJI RC is a new remote controller with a built-in 5.5-inch touchscreen. It is not strictly a component of the Mini 3, but it is another significant update. There is no need to mount your phone to the controller, as the touchscreen runs the same DJI Fly software as your phone, allowing you to select shooting modes, plan flight paths, and manage practically every aspect of the drone. Obviously, it's designed to operate with the Mini 3 out of the box, so if you're planning on purchasing the drone, you'll want to get one.DJI Mini 3 Pro is Pocket-FriendlyIt weighs less than 249 grams!Watch DJI Mini 3 Pro in ActionWith its highly pocketable size, the DJI Mini 3 Pro is definitely the leading mini drone in its class. With amazing innovations, better camera sensors and much-improved gimbal, it is difficult to find another mini drone to compete against it. The DJI Mini 3 Pro is now available with a price tag of $669 (RM2999) without the new DJI RC. A complete package with the latest DJI RC will cost you $909 (RM4,000) but it will be money well spent.

Now more than ever, we know that the air we breathe is very important to our well-being, health and even our very survival. That is why I believe the Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde review I will be sharing is vital to help us to be more aware of the quality of air around us, especially when we are in the comfort of our homes.Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde ReviewIf previously we Malaysians only need to be worried about the nagging haze and open burning, we now face an even more hazardous problem in our air-Covid-19 virus. This notorious virus will wreak on our life, and if worse comes to worst, we could end up dying. It is an irony that the air we breathe in could be fatal to our life! This is where Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde comes into the picture.Let's Unbox Our New Dyson Air PurifierBehold our new gleaming white golden Dyson Purifier Cool FormaldehydeAs the saying goes, \"Your home is your castle!\" Hence, it is supposed to be the most comfortable and safest place for us and our beloved family members to be. Imagine if you were to return home and your clothes might have been stained with some harmful airborne virus or bacteria; If you do not have an air purifier to cleanse the dirty air you have brought home, then you are putting everyone in your family at grave risk. What if the virus you brought home caused someone to die *touch wood*?Capture Dust, Allergens and 99.9% of VirusesHow good is this Dyson Air Purifier in purifying your air? For the record, its HEPA H13 filter can capture 99.95% of particles as small as 0.1 microns. On top of that, its 360-degree omnidirectional filter ensures that nothing can escape from being filtered.\u00a0 So bye-bye to airborne viruses or anything that is detrimental to our health. The presence of a layer of activated carbon will also effectively remove odours and gases which include VOCs (Volatile Organic Compound) such as dicholobenzene, ethanol and acetone just to name a few. Now you don't have to be worried about anything tagging you along to enter your home.Remove Cancer-causing Formaldehyde ContinuouslyPerhaps you are not aware of it but Formaldehyde is one of the most common VOCs that is found inside our household. Formaldehyde is cancer-causing and you will be surprised to know that it is already living amongst us. This carcinogenic gas comes from manufactured wood products such as your brand new furniture (sofa sets, divans and bed frames, laminate flooring, etc), fabrics (bedsheets etc), and household products in the forms of glues, dishwashing liquids and fabric softeners just to name a few. That's shocking, no?Formaldehyde is an odourless and colourless gas which lurks insidiously around us. The main way we are exposed to this harmful gas is by inhaling it. Hence, it makes perfect sense that we need to purify the air inside our house. Introducing Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde which will continuously trap and breaks down formaldehyde molecules into water and carbon dioxide, rendering it harmless.Formaldehyde-removing Filter Lasts a LifetimeThe Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde uses a solid-state sensor to detect formaldehyde molecules \u2013 500 times smaller than 0.1 microns. Then the dedicated formaldehyde-removing filter, known as the Selective Catalytic Oxidation (SCO) filter, will specifically target formaldehyde and destroy it at the molecular level. Unlike other air purifiers, the SCO filter used by Dyson can last permanently to remove Formaldehyde without ever needing a replacement! That's very impressive if you ask me.Purifying The Air in Your Whole Huge RoomNo disrespect to any other air purifier brands, however, most of them could only purify the immediate air around the machine or at best a small room. Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde on the other hand could purify all the air in a huge 81m3\u00a0(5.2m x 5.2m x3m) room. To put that into perspective, the room will come with 5.2 metres of length, 5.2 metres of width and a height of 3 metres. You could easily fit 6 queen-size beds in that 81m3\u00a0room with walking space to spare! So that's really huge and roomy (no pun intended)!Thanks to its amazing Air Multiplier Technology, the air inside an enormous room as big as the aforementioned one can be purified. The air in the room will be circulated to draw any pollutants into the Dyson Air Purifier. No allergens, pollutants or viruses can hide in the \"far sides\" of the room. Then purified air will be projected throughout the whole room, providing us with clean air to breathe in, especially when we are sleeping and resting. This has been rigorously tested and proven to ensure that we really get clean, purified air no matter where we are in the room.Sleek, Sexy Timeless DesignI thought my previous Nickel Black Dyson Air Purifier was already darn beautiful! How wrong was I! This new Golden White Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde is definitely one of the most beautiful air purifiers I have seen so far. In glossy white and beaming gold colours, this combination really exudes so much class and opulence. Its presence will definitely elevate any room it is in be it your living room, bedroom, or study room just to name a few. Who says an air purifier cannot be beautiful, right? I dare you to show me a better-looking air purifier.Real-time Monitoring LCDHow do you know if your air purifier is really filtering the air around you? That's when you need an integrated screen to show you the necessary information that you need. The built-in sensors will continuously analyse the quality of your air and display the accurate readings live on the LCD. So you will get to know what the air you are breathing in better. What can you see on the LCD display?Live air qualityAir Quality in the past 24 hoursPM 2.5 (Particulate Matter\u00a02.5 micrometre and smaller)PM 10 (Particulate Matter 10 micrometres and smaller)HCHO (Formaldehyde)VOC (Volatile Organic Compound)NO2\u00a0(Nitrogen Dioxide)TemperatureHumidityFan speed (1-10)Filter sustainability levelOscillation Mode (45\u00b0, 90\u00b0, 180\u00b0, 350\u00b0 or none)Cooling or Diffusing ModeNight ModeBesides understanding more about the air quality around us, we can also know the temperature and the humidity level and even the sustainability of the filters that we are using. Moreover, the LCD display also serves as a screen for us to control our Dyson air purifier. Together with the included remote control, you can easily see the changes made to the fan speed level, the oscillation modes, switching from cooling to diffusing and vice versa as well as activating silent mode for night sleepers. I love how intuitive and informative the LCD is.Fully Sealed HEPA H13 Air PurifierDo you know this latest Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde meets the distinguished HEPA H13 standard? It is not just the filters, but the whole machine is now HEPA H13-certified. This is definitely a huge upgrade compared to the previous model. Meaning whatever allergens, pollutants or viruses go in will stay inside the Dyson Air Purifier permanently. You do not want your air purifier to be leaking the supposedly trapped harmful pollutants, right?Cooling You With 350\u00b0 of OscillationIn Malaysia, the sweltering weather can be unbearable at times. Luckily, we get to enjoy cooling purified air that can be projected around the room thanks to its different oscillation modes of up to\u00a0350\u00b0. Be it 45\u00b0, 90\u00b0, 180\u00b0, 350\u00b0 or none, enjoy your cooling, purified air from Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde the way you want it. You can also opt to only divert airflow through the back of the air purifier without the cooling air via the Diffused Mode.Magnetised Golden Remote ControlIf you have had a Dyson Air Purifier before, you would have known that its remote is one of the coolest things about it. I love how gorgeous our Golden remote is this time around. It still retains its curvy shape and of course, it is magnetised to help you secure it on top of the air purifier. I love how thoughtful this design is and that means you will not be misplacing this remote too often. Not when it is magnetised and is golden in colour!Dyson Link App ControlDo you know that you can also control your Dyson Air Purifier just by using the Dyson Link App? You can easily monitor the air quality from virtually anywhere even if you are not at home. Having said so, this app can also replace your remote control to do virtually everything. In other words, it is a carbon copy of your magnetised golden remote control. The best part is, that anyone if your household can install this app. So you will have multiple \"remote controls\" at your disposal. So that means I can purify the air inside my house even before I am home.Night Mode + 20% QuieterThere is also Night Mode should you want to place this in your bedroom. When this mode is activated, the air purifier will be switched to the quietest settings as well as dimming the LCD display to let you have a more restful sleep. Dyson's engineers have also made this latest version of air purifier to be 20% quieter compared to its predecessor, so you will not even notice while it is busy purifying the air around you.Watch Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde Quick ReviewVERDICT: Should I Get Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde?Frankly speaking, the Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde is definitely one of the best air purifiers in its class. Its ability to purify your air and get rid of 99.95% of allergens, pollutants and viruses is second to none. When you take into account all the cutting-edge technology (LCD, HEPA 13 filters, App control etc.), you cannot deny that it is one of the leading premium air purifiers. With extra attention given to the cancer-causing formaldehyde, this is the air purifier that every family needs. In fact, I honestly feel that it is worth its weight in good for its relatively affordable price tag of RM3,299. For more information, head over to Dyson's official website.Protect Your Family and Let Them Breathe In Fresh, Purified Air!Each Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde comes with 2 years of warranty.

This is another piece of tech that just blew my mind away. And I believe a lot of people out there don't really know it well either. Usually, when we say tech and gadget, we think of smartphones, computers, pads, or even a Smart TV. But a Smart PROJECTOR is totally another cave that we really don't seem to explore much. But it deserves a heads up too! With that being said, today we will look at this amazing smart projector - INLAB Senz Projector.Why INLAB Senz?You might not understand why now. Don\u2019t worry, me either, I was confused about why I need a projector when I can have a TV. But until I met the INLAB Senz Projector, everything I had in my mind changed. Rest assured, if you follow along and read until the end, everything will make \u201cSenz\u201d.But before that, I will need to show you what exactly INLAB Senz is. So you could understand better.The INLAB SenzINLAB Senz Projector is a smart LED projector that comes with Android OS. It is much more convenient than a typical projector that you usually hear or see from classrooms, lecture halls, grand halls, meeting rooms and so on.Let\u2019s look at the physical build first, shall we? No doubt, INLAB Senz looks perfectly minimal and nice. I am already in love at first glance. Not only that, the build quality is robust and it is almost impossible to break the INLAB Senz case even though it is made out of plastic. The hard plastic does not bring down the premiumness, as it has no plasticky feels at all.Furthermore, thanks to the minimal design on the INLAB Senz, it looks just nice on any kind of setup, and easily matches around. The gigantic focusing knob with a power button is the hella signature of INLAB Senz, which is super recognizable and unique. Most importantly, INLAB Senz is much more compact compared to a Smart TV. I thought a home cinema projector is supposed to be a giant power eater. But I am wrong! By looking at the photo it just took 1/10 of my desk space.What makes INLAB Senz so special?Unlike a TV, INLAB Senz just needs a minute or two to complete the setting and start enjoying it. As simple as that. Step 1 to step 5 provided in the user manual is super handy, and everyone is able to do it without any hassle.How To Set Up Inlab Senz ProjectorStep 1: Get your distance correct.Step 2: Get your focus right.Step 3: Get your keystone right.Step 4: Open your favorite app.Step 5: EnjoyJust like a Smart TV, INLAB Senz projects natively 1080P (but supports up to 4K) videos/images with no problem at all. The sharpness, brightness and clarity of the projector are completely insane on this small little beast. And it consumed less power compared to a TV.With INLAB Senz, it brings your cinema experience to the next level while maintaining your comfort to the max. Why? You asked. Try to imagine that you\u2019re bringing the same GSC/TGV cinema experience back to your home. Yes, you hear me right, INLAB Senz can optimally project out 100-120 inches of the screen, do you know how big that is? And how much will it cost to own a 100 inches TV? Let me tell you, it ranges from RM10K to RM100K, depending on the brand. CRAZY, right?Guess what? With the Android OS built-in, I can now access all the well-known TV applications with a tap of a button. All the applications like YouTube, Netflix, Disney Hotstar+, IQIYI and 100+ more applications can be installed from the Play Store Application.Pre-installed Apps For Inlab Senz ProjectorSounds Very Troublesome?You might think of the inconvenience of connectivity a projector has. No worries, INLAB Senz provides a huge variety of connectivity both wired and wireless. Users can still connect to their own source with ease. With ease, I am saying for example:HDMI that works with laptop/PC, TV Stick, PlayStation console, and Nintendo Switch console;USB that works with, pendrive, portable harddrive, external harddisk;3.5MM headphone jack that works with earphones, headphones, and external speakers;Wireless mirroring that works with both iOS and Android OS smartphones;Bluetooth that works with external wireless earphones, headphones, and external speakers wirelessly.Often people hear that Projector's performance will be instantly killed by the bright lighting condition. But INLAB Senz is totally a game-changer. It has 7000 Lumens which could easily overkill all lighting conditions that normal users usually have.Dim:Full dark:That's it?No! INLAB Senz not only has a crisp image but also has a TRI-Speaker that is a Dolby Atmos-certified sound system. Clear high & trebles, beautiful mid, and low & deep base. Cool, right? Amazing projection and a super damn good speaker built into the projector. Such an invincible combination, what else do you need? Apa lagi you mau?What\u2019s more, INLAB Senz has electronic focusing and keystones that can be either adjusted from the remote or the big knob. The focusing works smooth like butter, with no weird or chopping mechanism sound while adjusting. I really appreciate the stepping tactile feedback from the rotation of the knob, so I can easily know when I should go fast and when I should go slow. And with that, I can stop at the focus range I want without going anywhere.ConclusionLast but not least, the price. As mentioned, a 100 inches TV ranges from RM10K - RM100K. Even a usual 45-inch Smart TV already costs around RM2K plus-minus. What if I tell you that INLAB Senz can be optimal from 100-120 inches but will only cost you RM1199 (PROMO) including shipping.Watch Inlab Senz Projector in ActionHence, I think the answer is pretty noticeable now. With all the above incredible features that INLAB Senz provided, it is hard to say no, right? Unless you\u2019re nuts! For more information, head over to Inlab's official website.

But not anymore. Not after watching this terrifying\u00a0Thai Horror Movie-Those That Follow, which is shot entirely using iPhone 13 Pro. There will be English subtitles available so do not be worried. On another note, this successful short Thailand movie shows that anyone can shoot a high-quality movie as long as they have the flagship smartphone from Apple.\u00a0Thai Horror Movie-Those That Follow Shot Entirely Using iPhone 13 ProSince the quality of smartphones' cameras has steadily improved, they are now being used in the filmmaking process by directors and producers. Cameras of smartphones are not so advanced to the point where they are able to create entire works using only their phone's lenses.Behind The Movie Scenes Using iPhone 13 ProSo now all you need is an iPhone 13 Pro?I want to disagree, but even I have to concede that Apple iPhone 13 Pro has the best video camera in its class at the moment. Apple has been working hard to remind everyone just how impressive its cinematic video mode is.\u00a0Since then, the efforts have resulted in the creation of a Thai horror short film directed by Parkpoom Wongpoom. He is a genius who has made a name for himself through previous epic ghost movies such as Shutter (2004) and Alone (2006). I have watched both of these films multiple times!Parkpoom Wongpoom Shooting Those That Follow MovieNo adequate lighting, no problem!Parkpoom Wongpoom had collaborated with Apple on a 20-minute short film called Those That Follow. This chilling ghost movie is based on a true story about two teenagers who were involved in a robbery gone awry and were trying to avoid detection at a local ghost mask festival. Eventually, the teens discover in the most horrifying way that there really is no hiding from your sins, with the film highlighting the local belief of \"Phi Ta Khon\", or ghosts following people. I didn't know there was such a tradition, so the whole movie is quite interesting at the same time.Phi Ta Khon Festival in ThailandLooks like a masquerade party, no?For the first time in nearly four years, Parkpoom is back in the director's chair with this feature film. As aforementioned, he shot Those That Follow entirely on an iPhone 13 Pro in Cinematic mode (which allows for focus point switching in post-production). Parkpoom hopes that his latest creation is able to inspire future filmmakers to shoot their own films.Those That Follow Thai Ghost Movie is Based on a True StoryYou cannot run away from your sins.There were low light conditions, and Parkpoom used iPhone 13 Pro Ultra Wide lenses with larger apertures. This combination allows him to achieve a film that has that chilling, eerie quality comparable to the best horror productions shot in Loei province (home of the Phi Ta Khon festival). You will agree when you watch this short horror movie as well.Brilliant Directing by ParkpoomCapturing every detail vividly with iPhone 13 ProParkpoom said that the iPhone 13 Pro's ability to capture low-light images allowed his team to hide scary elements and ghosts in the shadows without sacrificing the overall quality of the footage. I guess we have to take his words for it, no? After watching this whole short movie, I cannot help but agree that Apple iPhone 13 Pro is indeed a capable smartphone when it comes to film-making!The Ending of the Movie is ChillingI told you so!However, Parkpoom has been instrumental in ensuring that his horror movie Those That Follow will be a masterpiece in its own league, thanks to his directing and camera angles positions. The storytelling and plot were flawless too, breathing life into the whole movie. So are you ready to watch this 22-minute long horror ghost movie? It will be worth your time.Watch Thai Horror Movie-Those That Follow Directed by ParkpoomWhat do you think? Out of 10 stars, I could really give around 7 or 8 stars for Those That Follow, which had been shot entirely using iPhone 13 Pro. This short Thai ghost movie is in fact, better than tonnes of other run-of-the-mill ghost movies without genuine intent and storytelling.

It was made to give people more advanced ergonomics. People with small hands can't use that mouse because it's too big. Behold the Logitech Lift mouse which is the ergonomic mouse that people with smaller hands will love. Yes! This is the smaller version of the Logitech MX Vertical and it is called the Lift.Logitech Lift Mouse-The Ergonomic Mouse That You NeedAs I have aforementioned, Logitech Lift Mouse is made for people with small and medium-sized hands. It has the same upright design as the MX Vertical, but in a smaller size, which should work better for people with smaller hands. To stop wishing you could use the same mouse as the big guy in the next terminal, you and your small hands now have the same ergonomic mouse. You don't have to stretch your fingers with every left and right-click.The ergonomic mouse for people with small and medium-sized handsThe Logitech Lift is a vertical mouse that requires you to wrap your hand around its angled upright frame, which is very different from how you usually use a mouse. People who wear this outfit say the mouse's 57-degree angle forces their hands into a \"natural handshake position,\" which is more comfortable and reduces muscle strain right away. That means your wrist and hand will be less tired over the course of the day than if you used a traditional mouse for the same amount of time.Is Logitech Lift the Best Mouse For Ergonomics and Comfort?When you buy this, you get a mouse that has traditional mouse controls on one side. On the other side is a thumb rest and two small thumb buttons (both customizable). The right-handed version of the mouse has the main controls on the right side, while the left-handed version has them on the left. This means that the mouse isn't ambidextrous, which means that you have to get the exact orientation you need for the task at hand.Logitech Lift Mouse Is Available in 3 Different ColoursWhich is your favourite colour?The Logitech Lift has an optical tracker that you can change the sensitivity of. Do you know you can also adjust how responsive you want your mouse to be?\u00a0You can increase 100dpi at a time to switch from 400 to 4,000 dpi. Bluetooth LE or the Logi Bolt dongle can be used to connect wirelessly, so you don't have to deal with a lot of wires while you work. It also only needs a single AA battery to run. AA batteries can last for up to 24 months of \"moderate\" use if they're kept fresh, the company says.Watch Logitech Lift Mouse in ActionHowever, even though the mouse isn't called \"MX\" or \"MX+,\" the same thing happens. It can still connect to up 3 devices, so you can switch the mouse controls between 3 different machines with a button press. Mouse: It should be able to run on any computer that has a Windows computer, a Mac computer, a Chrome computer, an iPad computer, an Android computer, and even some phones. It's 2.8 x 2.7 x 4.25 inches tall, wide, and deep. It weighs 4.4 ounces. Logitech Lift can be yours with a price tag of\u00a0$69.99 (RM299).

You can think of it as your Tinkerbell of pixie who will be accompanying you all the time.Pixy-The Self-flying Selfie Drone from SnapYou can see Pixy's chassis, which is made up of four fans. It's small enough to fit in the palm of one's hand. In the words of its creators, Pixy was supposed to follow its user, take pictures and capture videos, and then deliver them to the Snapchat app. Snap hopes that people would use the drone to create video selfies instead of holding their phones, which is what it expects them to do with it.Pixy is your very own personal assistant!At the very least, since changing its name to Snap and releasing the Spectacles, Pixy is the first physical product from the company. With a 115-degree lens, Snap is capable of taking amazing pictures and videos that will be worthy of your social media feeds.

In addition to its small size, the drone is also extremely light, weighing only 101g.

All these photos and video clips will then be saved on Pixy's 16GB internal memory. It is a shame that only 16GB of internal storage is included. The company should be more generous with the available space and unfortunately, it appears that there is no SD card slot. Another drawback is the absence of a controller. Yupe!

Behold the adorable Samsung X Pokemon Galaxy Z Flip 3 for you to catch them all. It is obvious that these mythical Pokemon are really a magnet for collaborations, right?Samsung X Pokemon Galaxy Z Flip 3 Limited Edition MainSamsung and The Pok\u00e9mon Company are teaming up to create a limited-edition Galaxy Z Flip 3. Numerous phone manufacturers release limited edition phones on a regular basis. These phones are frequently associated with pop culture and are typically available in limited quantities at a premium price.Pokemon Fans Are Rejoicing Right Now!This must have been an unbeliveable news for manyWhen Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Z Flip 3 in 2021, it included a Thom Browne Edition. Soon after, it worked with South Korean menswear brand Wooyoungmi to create a limited-edition Galaxy Z Flip 3 and Galaxy Z Fold 3 smartphones. Additionally, it launched a Bespoke Edition that allowed buyers to choose the colours of the phone beyond the basic possibilities given at launch.How Much Can You Personalize the New Galaxy Z Flip?The Galaxy Z Flip 3 is the world's best-selling foldable smartphone, and its popularity is poised to skyrocket. Samsung's Korean website announced the debut of a Pok\u00e9mon Edition on April 25. The tech behemoth has launched a webpage in anticipation of the phone's debut, which details all of the intriguing stuff included in the special edition package. The Galaxy Z Flip 3 Pok\u00e9mon Edition will join a small number of limited edition variants introduced since the phone's introduction in 2021.Which Pokemon Will You Choose?Samsung looks to be reserving customizations for its relationship with The Pok\u00e9mon Company to merely accessories. According to the microsite, the phone will arrive packaged in a red box alongside a variety of Pok\u00e9mon-themed accessories and goodies. Unfortunately, the phone itself lacks further personalization, as it is only available in the Phantom Black colouring. Those who do have the opportunity to acquire it, however, may anticipate being greeted by a customised Pok\u00e9mon theme replete with icons and wallpapers when powering it on.Complete Set of Pokemon Accessories For Your Galaxy Z Flip 3Do you like it?Additionally, users will be able to modify the exterior of the phone with the use of the accompanying accessories. There is a Clear Cover that can be fitted to a Ring Case that contains two Pikachu-themed accessories. Additionally, the box includes a pop socket designed like a Pok\u00e9 Ball, a purse inspired after Pok\u00e9mon, a key holder shaped like Pikachu's lightning-shaped tail, and a collection of Pok\u00e9mon cards. Samsung could offer these accessories separately if it wasn't attempting to maximise profits by selling a limited edition. Unfortunately, no information on the Galaxy Z Flip Pok\u00e9mon Edition's price or availability outside of South Korea is available at the moment. I believe it will come with a price tag of US$999 (RM4,199). What say you?

While it can be difficult to\nknow where to start, here is a Dyson guide to creating a clean space and hair\ntips for the upcoming celebrations.\nFrom using cord-free vacuums for a deep clean to ensuring\ncleaner air quality, there is a Dyson technology for every occasion. A full list\nof Ramadan featured deals is here.\nFreshen up your car interiors for that long Balik Kampung\njourney. Car interiors can get dirty quickly. As well as looking unsightly,\nleaving cars uncleaned can impact our well-being as dust, allergens, and mould\ncan thrive in the right conditions. Cleaning the inside of your car is actually\nan easy process with the lightweight and powerful Dyson Digital Slim\u2122 FluffyExtra cordless vacuum and the right attachments.How To Freshen Up Your Car Interior\n1) Before starting to vacuum, open all the car doors for\nventilation, prepare a rubbish or recycling bag for waste disposal, and remove any loose items of\nrubbish. Finally, remove floor mats from the footwells and place them somewhere clean and dry.\n2) Start with the seats and use the Light Pipe Crevice tool\nto illuminate dark and tight spaces and vacuum along the seams of seats, as\nclose to the stitching as possible. Pay special attention to the seam where the\nback meets the seat bottom as a surprising amount of dirt and debris can gather\nhere, such as forgotten crumbs and invisible dirt. Repeat this process with the\nside pockets in the car doors.\n3) Next, click on the Mini-motorised tool and slowly vacuum\nthe upholstery on the seats, removing any loose debris and invisible\ndust and allergens that can gather in soft furnishings. Use the 'Boost' mode on\nyour vacuum for extra power.\n4) Use your Combination tool with the soft nylon bristles\nextended to remove dust and dirt from the car body. Gently vacuum the dashboard\nand between the vents. Use a damp cloth to gently remove any marks or stains on\nthe dashboard, leaving it to dry thoroughly.\n5) Finally, move your attention to the flooring and floor\nmats, and use the Mini-motorised tool to tackle any areas of stubborn dirt, as\nthe stiff nylon bristles will help scrub off dried dirt.\nDeep clean your carpets and hard floors\nFibres in carpets and rugs can hide fine dust and dirt and harbour microscopic life - such as dust mites, mould, and allergens.\nLikewise, your hard floors could accumulate fine dust that is difficult to see\nwith your naked eye. Even if your hard floors and carpet do not look visibly\ndirty, remember to vacuum it before your friends and family gather this Hari\nRaya.\nHow to Clean Carpets and Vacuums\nEfficiently with the Right Dyson Attachments:\n1) While it may seem like an effort to change tools\nmid-vacuum, this will help remove dust you can see and dust you can't. Use\na Reach Under tool to clean hard to reach places around the edge of the carpet or the Direct Drive Cleaner head to remove dust buried in thick pile rugs.\n2) Vacuum slowly. Vacuuming slowly gives the airflow and\nbrush bar more time to \"agitate\" the dust and dirt between the carpet\nfibres and remove them entirely. It also means you're more likely to capture\ninvisible allergens hidden deep in the carpet pile.\n3) Go over the same spot - but not too often. More passes\nover an area will give the machine the best chance of cleaning the carpet well, but\nany more than two or three times gives a minimal increase, according to our\nresearch in the laboratory.\n4) A vacuum like the powerful, intelligent and compact Dyson\nV12 Detect Slim Total Clean can provide assurance of a deep clean for hard\nfloors and carpets, as laser dust detection reveals dust particles invisible to\nthe eye, with a precisely-angled green laser integrated into a Fluffy cleaner\nhead, along with Acoustic Dust Sensing technology - so you don't miss a thing.\nThe Dyson Digital Slim\u2122 Fluffy Extra is priced at a special\noffer of RM2,299, while the Dyson V12 Detect Slim\u2122 Total Clean is priced at\nRM3,599. Both cord-free vacuums are exclusively available from www.dyson.my and\nDyson Demo Stores nationwide.\nHow To Purify Your Indoor Air at HomeWhether you are cooking a feast or inviting friends and\nrelatives over for gatherings, we cannot neglect our indoor air quality.\nCertified asthma and allergy friendly by Allergy Standards\nLimited, the Dyson Purifier Cool\u2122 Formaldehyde captures viruses, allergens and\ndust and destroys formaldehyde continuously, all while projecting purified air\nacross the room.\nDyson Purifier Cool\u2122 Formaldehyde air purifiers not only\nsense formaldehyde with their intelligent solid-state sensor, but they also\ndestroy it using Dyson's Selective Catalytic Oxidisation (SCO) filter. Some formaldehyde\nsensors are gel-based, so can dry out over time, causing the precision and\nperformance of the sensor to deteriorate. Dyson's formaldehyde sensor is\nsolid-state and so doesn't dry out, lasting the lifetime of the machine.\nEquipped with sophisticated air quality sensors tested\nagainst POLAR test standards, the purifier features a fully-sealed filtration\nsystem, combined with an activated carbon filter to remove gases and a Glass\nHEPA filter that captures 99.95% of microscopic allergens and pollutants as\nsmall as 0.1 microns, including allergens, bacteria, pollen and mould.\nAdditionally, users can receive real-time live indoor air quality reports on\nan LCD display and the Dyson Link app.\nThe Dyson Purifier Cool\u2122 Formaldehyde is priced at RM3,199\nand is exclusively available from www.dyson.my and Dyson Demo Stores\nnationwide.\n\u00a0Style Your Hair For Hari Raya Celebration\nEngineered to care for the scalp with fast drying unlike any\nother, the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer uses high-speed airflow to dry hair\nfast without extreme heat to preserve the natural shine. This is ideal for\nhijab-wearers and those seeking to style their hair in the shortest time\npossible.\nLightweight and comfortable to hold, Dyson engineers\nharnessed the design of the Dyson digital motor V9 - a small yet powerful motor\nthat sits and spins in the handle at 110,000rpm - to deliver 41 litres of\npowerful airflow, along with an on-board intelligent heat control system that\nkeeps the temperature below 150\u00b0C to prevent heat damage.

Its latest attempt at this technology is now available for purchase, and it's quite unique. Behold the new Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 360 with a high-resolution display. One look and you can tell that the new Galaxy Chromebook 2 is not quite as red as its predecessor. I believe it's rather lovely in the black and white colourway. However, it features a 360-degree hinge and a starting price of $429.99, making it more pragmatic and pocket-friendly.Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 360 With High-resolution DisplayWhat's most fascinating about this is the display. Not only is this Chromebook 16:10 in aspect ratio, but it also features a 2560 x 1600 display. That is undoubtedly one of the highest-resolution panels available at the $430 pricing point. Hence, it is ideal for educational purposes if you ask me. If only the Malaysian could pick this Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 360 for their PerantiSiswa Tablet program instead. Then it will be named PerantiSiswa Chromebook. \ud83d\ude01Chromebook 2 360 in Black and WhiteLoving the colourway!At 12.4 inches, this is still a very modest screen \u2013 smaller than its predecessor's 13.3-inch display. Thanks to its excellent resolution and aspect ratio, you can expect to get tonnes of visual enjoyment out of it. The additional vertical area provides more scrolling and multitasking space than a normal low-cost Chromebook, while the resolution results in sharper text and images. Students with visual impairments or learning disabilities, in particular, benefit from larger, more readable writing, and this type of screen is one method for schools to engage in accessibility.You Will Love 360 Degree Hinge DisplayThe Chromebook 2 360 features 4GB of RAM, 64GB or 128GB of eMMC storage, and a 45.5Wh battery. Make sure you invest in the additional storage, which will only cost an extra US$20. Why not right? Under the hood, Intel Celeron N4500 powers the Chromebook. It appears that the Intel Celeron processor is chosen as it works better with Chrome OS compared to a normal Windows laptop.It is Lightweight and PortableComes with all the bells and whistlesTwo USB-C ports, one USB 3.2 Type-A port, one microSD slot, one combination audio jack, one nano security slot, and an optional nano SIM slot round out the ports. The Galaxy Chromebook 2 which costs more is missing a USB-A port. This is actually a boon for Chromebook 360 if you ask me.Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 360 SpecificationsThis appears to be a \"Galaxy Chromebook 2\" solely in name. It bears little resemblance to its predecessor. However, it looks a notch or two nicer than the standard boring and outdated gadgets that populate classroom laptop carts and almost definitely provide a superior viewing experience (an area where schools should be investing). Durability is, of course, a critical component of any student laptop, and while the images do not reveal this, past Galaxy Chromebooks have been extremely well-built.Turn Your Chromebook Into a LaptopWith the Galaxy Chromebook 2 360 and Microsoft's new Surface Laptop SE, this year is shaping up to be one in which PC manufacturers better recognised for luxury products make a play in the education arena. As laptops become more integrated into the classroom environment, it opens up some intriguing possibilities for schools. Perhaps the era of the stereotypically unattractive and slow school laptop cart is drawing to a finish \u2014 but that depends on how many schools actually purchase these fancy-screened machines.

The team aims to distribute tablets to 350,000 students in the year 2022.

Minister of Communications and Multimedia Annuar Musa stated on the occasion that the procurement procedure is entirely up to the MoF, as K-KOMM simply offers the program's guiding principles. He does, however, guarantee that the tablets will be manufactured by respectable companies and will not be white-label OEM gadgets. In other words, these tablets that will be \"leased\" out to undergraduate students will be of relatively high quality.How To Register for PerantiSiswa Tablet (Step-by-step Guide)STEP 1: Click to registerSTEP 2: Fill in all the required detailsSTEP 3: Submit your applicationSpecifications of PerantiSiswa Tablet10.1-inch screen with 1280\u00d7800 resolution4GB of RAM64GB internal storage2MP Front Camera5MP Rear CameraBuilt-in audio speakers3.5mm audio jackSupports 4G LTESupports dual-band Wi-Fi 2.4GHz and 5GHzBluetooth 4.1 or above4500mAh batteryPre-installed with Android 10 or aboveMust be accompanied by a USB charger, Bluetooth keyboard, and stylus.Indeed, he stated explicitly that if one does not bring home a four-figure salary, one cannot purchase such a tablet. A big claim if you ask me. However, when the program's RM 450 million budget is considered, the average cost of each tablet for 350,000 students comes to roughly RM1,285. With this budget in mind, what do you think the students will be receiving. Great to know that a stylus pen and an external keyboard will be included. Could it be a Nokia T20 Tablet, Huawei MatePad? We are all still in the dark.350,000 Eligible Students Will Each Get a TabletAnnuar also stated during the speech that he will discuss the tablets in greater detail in an interview next Monday and will also announce the brand provided he receives that information from the Ministry of Finance on time. He did, however, state that the devices will most likely not be manufactured by Samsung or Apple. This is a bummer, no? The following are the terms of conditions to be eligible to be one of the recipients of the PerantiSiswa Tablet.What are the Terms and Conditions to get a PerantiSiswa Tablet?Terma dan Syarat Permohonan PerantiSiswaPemberian satu (1) unit peranti adalah untuk pemohon yang memenuhi syarat-syarat umum kelayakan PerantiSiswa seperti berikut:Warganegara Malaysia;Daripada kategori keluarga B40 iaitu pendapatan isi rumah RM4,850 dan ke bawah;Warganegara Malaysia;Sedang mengikuti pengajian di peringkat Diploma, Diploma Lanjutan atau Ijazah Sarjana Muda;Bukan pelajar tahun akhir pada tahun 2022;Mengikuti pengajian secara sepenuh masa; danTidak pernah menerima bantuan peranti daripada mana-mana program di bawah Kerajaan.Inisiatif ini hanya melibatkan pemberian peranti tanpa pelan data Internet.Peranti akan diberikan secara Kaedah Guna Pakai (KGP) kepada mahasiswa dan perlu diserahkan semula mengikut kaedah yang ditetapkan setelah tamat pengajian atau dalam tempoh yang ditentukan oleh Pentadbir Program.Peranti perlu dipulangkan apabila mahasiswa tersebut:menamatkan pengajian;berhenti pengajian;dibuang pengajian;menyalahgunakan peranti yang dibekalkan sehingga mendatangkan kemudaratan atau menyalahi undang-undang negara; ataumelanggar apa-apa syarat yang ditentukan oleh Pentadbir Program dari semasa ke semasa.Penerima peranti perlu melaporkan kerosakan, kehilangan atau kecurian tablet tersebut melalui kaedah pelaporan yang akan ditentukan kelak untuk tindakan lanjut oleh Pentadbir Program.Pentadbir Program atau mana-mana pihak yang diberi kuasa oleh Pentadbir Program berhak untuk mengarahkan penerima peranti untuk menyerahkan tablet tersebut untuk diperiksa pada bila-bila masa.Penerima peranti adalah bertanggungjawab untuk menjaga keselamatan peranti yang diterima.Penerima peranti juga perlu memastikan peranti yang diterima tidak diconteng, ditulis atau dibuat sebarang jenis perlakuan yang boleh mengakibatkan kerosakan atau kecacatan kepada peranti tersebut.Penerima peranti perlulah mematuhi peraturan/polisi keselamatan siber IPT atau agensi-agensi kerajaan yang berkuatkuasa.Peranti hendaklah digunakan dengan sebaik-baiknya untuk pembelajaran kendiri dan tidak digunakan untuk mengakses laman sesawang yang menyalahi undang-undang negara.Penerima peranti yang melanggar apa-apa syarat atau menyebabkan sesuatu kehilangan atau kerosakan ke atas peranti disebabkan kecuaian boleh dikenakan penalti yang akan ditetapkan oleh Pentadbir Program.Penerima peranti adalah tertakluk kepada terma dan syarat-syarat lain yang ditetapkan oleh Kerajaan dari semasa ke semasa.The main takeaway from the terms and conditions to be an eligible recipient of the PerantiSiswa Tablet is that the student who applies should be from a B40 family. In other words, the household income of the student should be less than RM4,850. Do note that, the Internet data plan will not be included so students will need to fork out their own money for it. I foresee that the tablet will have restricted access to websites and apps since this is considered to be a government property that needs to be returned eventually.Only Students from B40 Household Can ApplySo are you one of the students from the B40 family who is eligible to receive the \"free\" tablet from the Malaysian government under the PerantiSiswa programme? If yes, I am happy for you. But do make sure that you only use this tablet for \"educational purposes\", right? I would also applaud the Malaysian government for this meaningful initiative.

Finally, Vivo has jumped on the bandwagon,\u00a0 joining other big Chinese smartphone brands, including Huawei, OPPO, and HONOR who have all unveiled their very own foldable smartphones. I believe all smartphone manufacturers will have their own foldable devices in the future.Vivo X Fold-The Company's First Foldable SmartphoneAs with Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 3, the new smartphone has a standard display on the exterior and a tablet-sized folding display inside. The external display is a huge 6.53-inch 120Hz OLED panel. On the inside, the foldable display is an even bigger 8.03-inch 120Hz LTPO OLED display panel. I bet watching dramas and movies using the gigantic screen will be a visual blast! Vivo has claimed that the inner, foldable screen will be shielded by ultra-thin durable glass. Time will tell if the protective glass will break under pressure.Foldable Smartphones Will Be Mainstream Now!To facilitate the use of all sides of the Vivo X Fold, the company has included an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner on both displays. Yes! So you can securely unlock your smartphone on any of the displays. I reckon this is really a nifty and thoughtful touch. Not to mention, the device's hinge is rated to withstand up to 300,000 folds in various lab tests. If you were to unfold it like 300 times a day, the Vivo X Fold could potentially be used for up to 1,000 days for around 2 and a half years.Can be folded and unfolded 300,000 timesUnder the hood, the Vivo X Fold is powered by Qualcomm's latest flagship chip, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. It is complemented by a standard 12GB of RAM and up to 512GB of storage with no microSD card slot available. This is a deal-breaker for me as I have always believed that external storage is essential for any mobile device. The Vivo X Fold is powered by a 4,600mAh battery and supports cable charging at 66W, wireless charging at 50W, and reverse wireless charging at 10W.Vivo X Fold is Equipped With Zeiss CamerasIf you are into photography, this new foldable smartphone from Vivo features a quad-camera array that comprises ZEISS optics, a 50MP primary sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide camera, an 8MP periscope telephoto lens, and another 12MP telephoto lens. Additionally, there are two 16MP punch-hole selfie cameras situated on the right side of the folding display and in the external display's top centre section.Capture Anything Easily With Vivo X FoldVivo X Fold supports 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, and NFC connectivity. Pre-installed with Vivo's in-house OriginOS Ocean, a custom version of Android 12, expect a buttery smooth user experience. The X Fold features stereo speakers but is devoid of a 3.5mm audio connection.What's The Price of Vivo X Fold?The Vivo X Fold is available in blue and black colour options and is reportedly priced at RM5,999 for the 256GB variant and RM6,699 for the 512GB model. For the time being, it will be marketed exclusively in China, and the company has not yet revealed intentions to expand into international markets. When do you think it will arrive in Malaysia?

Behold the Tesla Optimus Bot, a bizarre-sounding concept for a humanoid robot. It was brought up again during Tesla's recent Cyber Rodeo event near Austin, Texas. The Tesla Optimus Bot is intended to be an android the size and shape of a human. They are reported to be meant to perform tasks that humans do not want to do or that are too dangerous for humans. Elon Musk appears to value this concept highly. He envisions the robot having a greater impact than Tesla's electric cars.Tesla Optimus Bot Will Go Live in 2023Elon Musk originally suggested the Tesla Optimus Bot in August 2021 during the company's AI day. Surprisingly detailed information and photos were provided, probably to persuade people that the android, dubbed Optimus Sub-Prime, was not a hoax. Tesla is well-known for its automobiles but has never publicly unveiled a robot. On the other hand, Musk said that Tesla did develop robots for its advanced automobile manufacturing process and that a Tesla car equipped with full self-driving capabilities is essentially a robot on wheels.What is Tesla Optimus Bot?Will robots be an \"endemic\" for us as well in the future?Since its inception in 2021, the Tesla Optimus Bot has been mentioned on a periodic basis. Musk stated that the firm has a chance of initiating production on the Tesla Optimus Bot's first iteration in 2023, despite the fact that no prototypes have been presented thus far. This sounds like wishful thinking, especially in light of the company's delays since the outbreak began. With supply chain logistics improving, the Cybertruck, Semi,\u00a0Mini Cyberquad,\u00a0and next-generation Roadster all seem plausible for 2023.Tesla Optimus Bot Specs at a GlanceTesla launching a totally new category of the product next year, a humanoid robot or android, appears to be considerably less plausible. Tesla has the resources and technology necessary to do extraordinary feats, and possibly an early prototype of the Tesla Optimus Bot will be ready for a demonstration next year. After all, Musk also launches reusable rockets into space and provides extensive satellite internet, both of which were unavailable prior to Musk's involvement.Tesla Optimus Bot Relies on Vision-based AIThe design choices made for Optimus are comparable to those made by Tesla for its Full Self-Driving systems, which rely on vision-based artificial intelligence rather than LiDAR or Radar. Just as highways are designed for individuals with visual systems, factories, businesses, and other structures are also designed for humans, with doors and stairs created to accommodate a person's size and shape.Will Tesla Optimus Bot Take Away Your Job?If the Tesla Optimus Bot is intended to act in the place of a human, making it a humanoid seems like a realistic long-term strategy. By comparison, today's factory robots are highly specialised, frequently anchored to the floor and isolated from human workers. If Tesla's aspirations for artificial general intelligence (AGI) are sufficiently progressed, this barrier between human and robot workers may become obsolete, a huge advancement.Are You Ready For Their Arrival?The Tesla Optimus Bot's size and weight will be similar to that of a human, allowing it to work in the same environment. To allay any fears or potential dangers associated with 'Terminator stuff,' as Musk puts it, Optimus is projected to be slower and weaker than a human, making it easy to overcome or flee the android if required.Watch the Introduction of the Tesla Optimus BotIt is understood that Elon Musk's ultimate goal, as he claims, is to revolutionise the world even more than Tesla automobiles can. This will of course usher in an age of abundance in which disagreeable and risky work is performed by robots, leaving more joyful employment to people. While the Tesla Optimus Bot and high aims seem incredible, even if a prototype is unveiled in 2023, it could be decades before this technology has a meaningful impact on how people work and live."} {"title": "Replaced My Laptop Keyboard For RM170 at PC World Melaka", "body": "After \"suffering\" for months, I had finally had enough and decided to get it changed. Yes! I have just replaced my laptop keyboard which had been acting weirdly for the past few months. It had been really difficult to do my job initially as the output characters typed by me were sometimes different. So it was still bearable in the beginning. However, it got so terrible to the point that not a single word typed is correct.Replaced My Laptop Keyboard For RM170 at PC World MelakaMy second plug-and-play external keyboard \ud83d\ude02I resorted to buying an \"external\" keyboard to help me do my job. I ended up needing two external keyboards as the first one was broken as well. They were a great alternative originally but it soon dawned on me that this solution cannot be a permanent one. Plugging and unplugging a full-size keyboard into a laptop can be tedious and is certainly a hassle. Why bother to lug around that extra weight, right?How to Replace Your Laptop's KeyboardDo you DIY?As I needed to use my laptop constantly for work and even more work (of course), I had decided against sending my laptop to a shop to get it fixed at the beginning. Taking more than 1 day to replace it will be a bummer for me. I had seriously considered replacing the keyboard for my laptop on my own. You could easily buy a laptop keyboard replacement on shopee for around RM20 - RM60 but then again I am not a computer whizkid and I definitely know nothing about repairing or replacing parts for laptops.This is what your internal keyboard laptop looks likeDoubt I could replace the keyboard on my own...Instead of trying to save some money to replace my laptop, I honestly believe that an expert will be better equipped to do the job. I do not want to risk causing more damage, no? Hence, I went to a computer shop near my working place to get my faulty laptop's keyboard to be replaced. Surprisingly, the whole process took less than 24 hours and I was charged RM170 which I thought was relatively affordable. I have to thank the professionals at PC World Ong Kim Wee for an amazing job done!My Laptop Keyboard Has Been Replaced!I am really elated! The whole laptop feels brand new. \ud83d\ude01I am glad that now I do not need to bring extra \"weight\" anymore. It feels really good to be able to type right off my laptop. The best part is I do not need to allocate extra space to place the external keyboard. I guess spending RM170 to replace the laptop keyboard that I had been using for 10 years is considered cheap right? Have you had such an experience before? Would you rather buy the keyboard on your own and DIY to replace it on your own or will you send it to a professional just like me?"} {"title": "ZipCharge Go-Portable Battery For Your Electric Vehicle", "body": "Now that more and more people are switching to electric vehicles, it makes perfect sense that we will need a portable battery to charge the likes of Tesla and Volvo XC40 Recharge Pure in the future.

Behold the jaw-dropping Dyson Zone Air Purifying Headphones that feel like a future tech that a time-traveller has brought back for us!Dyson Zone Air Purifying HeadphonesThe Dyson Zone Air Purifying Headphones is certainly a departure from anything the firm has ever crafted. It feels like something out of a sci-fi movie, with its enormous, fluffy headphones attached to a plastic mask-like device that goes from ear to ear across the wearer's mouth. I can't help but feel this is an extra-terrestrial tech to help us breathe cleansed air. So now Dyson has managed to integrate their famous air purifier into headphones! BAM!6 Years Of Rigorous Testing To Create Dyson ZoneIn addition to delivering that trademarked purifier air to the mouth and nose, its active noise-cancelling technology also helps reduce noise pollution. \"We all have to deal with air pollution in our daily lives,\" Jake Dyson, the company's chief engineer, said in an interview. At home, at school, at work, and when we're on the go, whether it's on foot, by bike, or in a taxi. Dyson Zone filters the dirty air you breathe while on the go. And, in contrast to face masks, it provides a fresh air plume without contacting the wearer's face. Yes! There is no direct contact to your face!Enjoy Purified Air While Listening To MusicFreaking cool!Air purifying dual-layer filters are embedded in each ear cup's motor, compressor, and fan. Pollen, germs, dust, and other air pollutants, such as sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, are removed by drawing the air through filters that remove 99 per cent of the smallest particles in it. To ensure that the wearer is breathing only clean air, the air is first filtered and then pumped through a visor that sits just in front of one's mouth and nose without touching one's skin.No Direct Contact With FaceIn order to provide the same amount of fresh air as a jog, the headphones feature sensors that detect how fast the user is moving and automatically alter the airflow between three intensity levels. As pollution levels rise, an internal sensor in the left ear cup alerts you to the need to replace the filters, which should last around 12 months in Europe and less in more polluted areas. The data is sent to an app on your phone.Dyson Zone is From The Future?The mannequin looks like a time-traveller!Size-adjustable arms and magnets attached to Dyson Zone Air Purifying Headphones enable for the visor to be unclipped and unfastened so the wearer can speak with others while still listening to music. In response to the masking needs of the Covid-19 epidemic, Dyson has designed an extra mask attachment that lies between the visor and the face and has an FFP2 filter.The Headphones That Purify AirTo counteract this outside sound, active noise cancelling headphones, like those made by companies like Bose or Sony, use spinning compressors on either side of your head to send out anti-sound waves into the ear cups, which are then received by the ear cups themselves to reduce the amount of noise you're exposed to. In order to use the headphones without filtration, it is necessary to remove the visor.I Really Dig the Design of Dyson Zone!If you utilise Dyson Zone at its lowest filtration rate for 4.5 hours, the battery will last up to 90 minutes. They may be worn as headphones for up to 40 hours before needing to be recharged, and they charge up to 60% in 20 minutes when connected to a USB-C port.\u00a0To now, no price has been announced for the Dyson Zone, which is likely to retail for between $500 (RM2,000) and $1,000 (RM4,000) when it goes on sale in the fall. Will it be available in Malaysia?

Then you will love the \"air\" that comes with this iPad.\u00a0 This is definitely the best option for you. That is especially true now that Apple has endowed the mid-range device with a more powerful engine. The supercharged M1 CPU that now powers this slate has logged miles on the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and iPad Pro over the last year and a half.Is This The Best Apple iPad in 2022?The M1 is certainly a head-turner of the show this year, but there are a few other tasty treats to enjoy. For starters, the MacBook Air now comes in a variety of different colours, including the stunning blue of my review model. In addition, 5G compatibility is available as an option for faster mobile speeds than 4G LTE. Best of all, Apple isn't charging anything extra: the iPad Air remains RM2,599, keeping it competitive with other iPads and non-Apple rivals in this sector.Ridiculous Storage Options, Same Old PriceApple deserves credit for keeping the iPad Air's pricing despite swapping out an A-series chip for the M1 processor. The Air is much less expensive than the iPad Pro models and Samsung's higher-end tablets at this pricing. However, keep in mind that the standard iPad Air only offers 64GB of storage.Apple omits a 128GB storage variant, forcing you to spend an additional RM600 to upgrade to 256GB. Still, at RM3,199, the high-end Air is RM850 cheaper than the iPad Pro with the same storage, albeit the iPad Pro 11 with 128GB is only RM200 more expensive than the 256GB iPad Air.In terms of how it compares to Samsung's options, the iPad Air costs the same as the regular Galaxy Tab S8, but Samsung has twice the capacity. The price of the Galaxy Tab S8+ with 128GB storage starts at RM3,799.iPad Air Is Beautiful in BlueThe new iPad Air colour is a stunning metallic gunmetal blue that shimmers in the proper light. It's a unique colour that I am sure you have not seen before If you do not fancy the latest colourway, Apple had some fun this year by releasing the iPad Air in Pink, Purple, and Starlight (a metallic white hue), in addition to the iconic Space Grey.This iPad appears to be the same as the prior model. It's a thin metal slab with a single round camera module on the back atop a chrome Apple logo in the centre. Thin bezels assist to refresh a design that keeps to Apple's basic approach across the board. A magnetic stripe on the side for charging and holding the optional Apple Pencil, as well as a Touch ID fingerprint sensor embedded into the power button, are other nice convenience features. Unfortunately, the Air lacks Face ID, a speedier, hands-free login technique seen on the iPad Pro.Unlike the larger iPad Pro 12.9 and several of Samsung's new Galaxy Tab S8 tablets, the iPad Air can be held aloft comfortably without straining your arms. The Air is roughly the same size and weight as the iPad Pro 11, measuring 0.23 inches thick and weighing 1.02 pounds. Without the keyboard, the Surface Pro 8 weighs around 2 pounds.iPad Air's Display is Simple but EffectiveThe 10.9-inch, 2360 x 1640-pixel display on the iPad Air is indistinguishable from the 11-inch display on the iPad Pro. Of course, it is dwarfed by the iPad Pro 12.9 and Samsung's Galaxy Tab S8 and S8 Ultra. Despite the fact that the number of large-screen tablets on the market is expanding, the iPad Air's display does not feel cramped.It was really fun to watch movies on Netflix and videos on YouTube on the iPad Air; the panel delivers realistic, vivid colours, text appears sharp, and the screen is bright enough to view outdoors on a beautiful spring day, despite our colourimeter registering a peak of 427 nits, considerably below the 500-nit rating.This is a regular LCD panel, not an OLED display like the Galaxy Tab S8+/Ultra or a mini-LED display like the iPad Pro 12.9. As a result, you won't receive the same brilliant colours or excellent black levels. The bezels on Samsung's slate are slimmer, and the colours are more vibrant. Short of best-in-class display quality, you make a compromise with the iPad Air, which is regrettable given that it's best suited for content consumption. Remember that the iPad Air is approximately RM1,200 cheaper than the Tab S8+.The iPad Air's refresh rate of 60hz is also outdated. Most people won't notice, but switching from a 120Hz display to the iPad Air may be unsettling given how fast-moving objects appear much smoother on a high-refresh-rate screen. Another feature lost when downsizing from the iPad Pro, which has an adaptive 120Hz display which is also known as ProMotion.Minor Enhancements That Add UpThe iPad Air only features two speakers, but they are placed on opposing sides of the tablet to produce a stereo experience. Despite the numerical disadvantage, the audio quality is outstanding. The speakers are powerful enough for single listening and can fill a small space with clear sound. The sounds and voices remained clear and there was no distortion even if you crank up the volume. Impressive I would say!One minor change was made to the USB-C charging connector on the device's bottom. Nope! iPad Pro\u2019s Thunderbolt 4 input is not available with the iPad Air but it is twice as fast as its predecessor. With 10GBps, you can transfer data faster or connect to up to one 6K monitor. However, the Air still requires a dongle or a Bluetooth device for private listening.The iPad Air's enhanced 12MP ultra-wide-angle front-facing lens, which produces more detailed photos than the previous 7MP selfie cam, works in tandem with a single 12-megapixel rear-facing camera. You will be delighted that Apple prioritised the front-facing camera because it will be used more on tablets. I'm also happy that its 12MP lens doesn't have the same flaws as Apple Studio Display's webcam. Picture quality is comparable to that of an iPhone's front-facing camera, and it is capable of catching fine details and correct skin tones under suitable lighting.Center Stage makes its iPad Air debut on this 5th generation model as well. During video conversations, Apple's clever software keeps you and other close participants centred within the frame. I've tried the feature on a MacBook, the Studio Display, and an iPad Air, and it's always detected my movements correctly, seamlessly panning to keep my head centred on the screen. One disadvantage of the Air is that the camera is located on the narrow end of the tablet rather than the horizontal edge. Center Stage will keep you centred, but it will not change the angle of the lens, so you will appear to be staring off aimlessly while you are actually looking at others on the screen.iPad Air Accessories: Beautiful but ExpensiveThanks to its relatively huge size, the iPad Air is best utilised as a normal tablet for web surfing, usage of apps, and content consumption. However, with such a powerful chip, the Air has the potential to do much more. If you want to use the iPad Air as a laptop replacement or as a supplement to your work machine, Apple's keyboard and stylus attachments are worth considering.They're good, but they're pricey. The Apple Pencil 2 costs RM599, but it's a worthy investment for artists, designers, or anyone who likes writing or sketching with a stylus. It's comfortable in the hand, didn't have any trouble tracking my rapid sketching, and the magnetic charging is a blessing for individuals who lose stuff.If you need the Air to function as a laptop, the Magic Keyboard comes close. You will fall in love with the cosy keyboard especially the\u00a0 \"floating\" design that allows for a variety of viewing angles. It is, however, far from ideal. The adapter is bulky and pricey (RM1,299), and you must remove the iPad to return to tablet mode. For RM759, you can also get the Smart Keyboard Folio, which fixes some of the Magic Keyboard's issues but isn't the most pleasant to text on.Desktop-quality PerformanceWhile the improved front-facing camera, faster USB-C connection, and stunning blue colour option are great additions this year, the M1 CPU and 5G capability are the key improvements to the iPad Air. The same desktop-grade M1 chip seen in the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro 13, and iPad Pro versions replaces the A14. The CPU has four performance cores and four efficiency cores, which gives it a two-core advantage over the A15 in the current iPhone 13.If we just look at raw performance, the iPad Air scored 7,252 on the Geekbench 5 overall performance tests, which is just about the same as the iPad Pro (7,292). The iPad Air now outperforms the smaller iPad mini (4,525) with its A15 Bionic chip. It is also worth noting that it outguns the Galaxy Tab S8+ (3,230) with its Qualcomm Snapdragon Gen 1 SoC with the M1.In practice, the 5th Generation iPad Air is lightning fast at loading apps, navigating numerous browser tabs, and streaming movies. But it's always been that way. Unless you're dealing with demanding processes or playing more graphics-intensive games, you won't notice the M1's influence. Even so, you're unlikely to encounter anything that the previous iPad Air couldn't handle, but this latest version will do it faster for longer. I know I am super ecstatic to discover that the year 2022 version of the Apple iPad Air will reach its performance limit only after many years of use. In other words, it is kinda future-proof.For better or worse, the new processor appears to have little effect on battery life. The iPad Air lasted 10 hours and 2 minutes in our battery test, which included playback of videos with the display adjusted to 200 nits of brightness. That's a slight decrease from the previous edition (10:30), but it'll get you through a full day of use.If you currently own a more recent model, the M1 processor isn't enough to justify upgrading to the iPad Air. However, depending on your requirements, optional 5G support may be available. You can add sub-6Ghz 5G compatibility to the iPad Air for an additional RM600, giving it the quickest mobile speeds available, which, depending on your carrier, might be a substantial step up to 4G LTE. You miss out on mmWave 5G, the ultra-fast variety, but given how frustratingly elusive it remains, it's scarcely worth mentioning.Should you get the new Apple iPad Air in 2022?Simply put, the iPad Air is the greatest tablet for the majority of people. It is undeniable that the unveil of the iPad Air has certainly made it more difficult for potential buyers to choose. It has got a few noteworthy upgrades over the base iPad, thanks to its modern design, portable chassis, and M1-powered performance.The iPad Air falls short as a viable laptop replacement. It's adequate for basic tasks, but the 10.9-inch screen is too small for multitasking. If you require a tablet/laptop hybrid, the iPad Pro 12.9 or Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra are better choices (though I'm not a big fan of \"tablet as a laptop\" in the first place).That gets me to the conclusion: if you need a new tablet, get the iPad Air. While the latest improvements don't move the needle enough for me to suggest it to people who already possess a more current model, they do extend the iPad Air's advantage over the competition\u2013making it the safe decision in the sub-RM3500 bracket.

Then you can get the Solo Stove Pi to cook up a storm in your backyard. Many of us are major admirers of Solo Stove's fire pits, because of their small size and near-smokeless operation. We especially like how they used the same innovative concept in a backyard barbeque. This time, they're adding the Solo Stove Pi to their backyard cooking arsenal.Solo Stove Pi-The Pizza Oven For Your HomeNo, this isn't another grill. Instead, the company is adding a genuine pizza oven to their inventory, offering you a desktop setup for making pies in your garden. While it does not produce the same amount of smoke as fire pits, it does have the same design and aesthetic, making it an attractive addition to anyone's garden.Easy to Use Pizza OvenNow you don't have to order pizza anymore?The Solo Stove Pi has a spherical form similar to their fire pits, but with a demi dome top that conducts heat down to the full-width cordierite pizza stone at the oven's floor and a panoramic opening scaled to suit the 12-inch pizzas out front. It, of course, employs the same airflow concept as the outfit's fire pits. In this case, it uses perforations at the bottom of the oven to allow air to enter, which it then directs straight to the fire in the back, ensuring your flames have a steady supply of air to keep going while you cook one pie after another, while ceramic insulation keeps the heat inside to maintain optimal cooking temperatures.Dual Fuel Pizza OvenIt, like the company's fire pits, can run on wood, which you just place in the recessed tray along the back of the oven, similar to normal wood-fired pizza ovens. If you don't feel like gathering logs, you may use the optional Gas Burner accessory, which allows you to cook your pizza by simply connecting it to the same LPG tank that you use on your gas grill.Bake Your Pizza at\u00a0425 degrees Celsius!When utilising wood as fuel, the Solo Stove Pi can heat the pizza stone to 400 degrees Celsius and 425 degrees Celsius when using the gas burner. Please keep in mind that there is no built-in thermometer in the stove, therefore you will need to use a separate thermometer to measure heat levels. There's also no time stated for how long you need to warm the oven to get to those temperatures, but we're hoping it's close to the 15 or so minutes Ooni's ovens can heat up to optimum cooking temperatures (from what we can tell, this one will take way longer). Once properly preheated, the oven can produce one pizza every two minutes. There's enough space inside for a single 12-inch pizza or a couple smaller pies.Home-made Pizza Anyone?Watch How Solo Stove Pi bake Your Perfect PizzaWhen utilising wood as fuel, it has a built-in pan that collects ashes. According to the company, you may burn three hours' worth of wood before the pan becomes clogged with ash, at which point you'll need to clear it before cooking again. When cooking with gas, you can cook for as long as you have propane left in the tank. The Solo Stove Pi will be available in mid-May 2022 with a price tag of $425 (RM1,799) which I thought is relatively affordable.

Look at the\nbeautiful Sony Walkman NW-WM1ZM2 which is priced at RM14,999! The Sony Walkman\nhas been reintroduced in two variants (NW-WM1AM2 and NW-WM1ZM2), both of which\nfeature Hi-Res Audio, DSD, LDAC, and MQA. Both are aimed at audiophiles in need\nof a standalone MP3 player, and both support modern streaming services and\nformats, with the more expensive NW-WM1ZM2 featuring copper and gold parts for\nbest audio fidelity.Sony Walkman NW-WM1ZM2 is Priced at RM14,999Throughout the Sony Walkman's history, various versions have stood out from the colour-popping plastic mass-market units. For example, in 1983, the WM-20 had the same same size as a cassette case (and which came in a beautiful gold finish). Audio quality was also highly regarded. The WM-D6C Professional Walkman was first unveiled in 1984 (a year before I was born). It was really a decent music player that will set you back several times the initial $250 price tag. Initially, it was still in production when Sony released its very first all-digital player the iconic Network Walkman, in the year 1999.Sony Walkman NW-WM1ZM2 Copper Golden BuildThe epitome of class and beauty!Sony's digital Walkman series may have been the first, but it did not win the prize. When Apple iPod made its debut appearance back in 2001, mp3s became instantly popular; granted that as you were using Apple. Despite the fact that the NW models have been constantly refined over the last 23 years, they have always been seen as relatively specialised. Since 2014, all Walkman models have been 'high-resolution' players, capable of playing codecs such as 24-bit FLAC and the ubiquitous mp3. The NW-WM1ZM2 and NW-WM1AM2 are two new premium music players from the firm.Sony Walkman NW-WM1AM2 In Black!The \"cheaper\" alternative to the golden walkman!The astute observer will have observed a noticeable difference between the two. The WM1ZM2 Walkman Signature Series elevates the audiophile community's gold infatuation to new heights. While the AM2 has a standard black case, the Sony Walkman NW-WM1ZM2 has a chassis constructed of oxygen-free copper that has been gold-plated. According to the firm, the purity and strength of this material results in 'clear and strong bass notes' and a more spacious atmosphere.' If you feel you can discern such minute acoustic distinctions, go for it. Regardless, it's gorgeous.Preorder Your\u00a0Sony Walkman NW-WM1ZM2 Now!Watch The Creation of\u00a0Sony Walkman NW-WM1ZM2The flagship model also offers a few notable technological advantages, such as higher-quality components, such as the thick American-made Kimber Kable internal connector connecting the amp to the headphone socket. Yes, pricey speaker cabling is frequently the most contentious area of hi-fi magic, but Sony argues that the handful of centimetres of this high-spec wiring adds a further boost to signal quality. There's also 256GB of onboard storage, up from 128GB on the AM2, while both versions offer a microSD card to expand that capacity even further.

Introducing Kawasaki Robotic Goat that you can ride! We\u2019re more or less still at the point of robotics when engineers are throwing anything at the wall and hoping to discover a design that sticks. Or at least, that seems like the clearest explanation for why Kawasaki designed a four-legged walking Ibex.Kawasaki Robotic Goat That You Can RideFor the uninitiated, an ibex is a species of wild goat\u2014that can tote freight or passengers presuming neither are in much of a hurry. Officially revealed at the 2022 International Robot Exhibition (iREX) in Tokyo this past week, Bex is an offspring of Kawasaki\u2019s Kaleido programme which, since 2015, has been focused on building bipedal humanoid robots.Fancy riding a robotic goat?As is clear by watching every single blooper film that Boston Dynamics\u2019 has published of its multi-million dollar Atlas robot sliding and falling, producing a bipedal robot that\u2019s as agile and solid on two feet as a real human is no easy undertaking. That is why Bex was conjured by its designers. The experienced robotics professionals at Kawasaki were trying to invent a flexible bipedal robot that can easily navigate through any of those rough terrains like its real-life sibling. This amazing Kawasaki robotic goat that you can ride is undeniably a robot with wheels that is agile enough to balance itself on the ground at all times.Now Mountain-climbing Will Be Easier?Feet or Wheels?When you need pace in your rideable Bex, it can lower its body and actually kneel on its 4 pairs of wheels to transform into an electric scooter. In this mode, it can take advantage of the smooth, paved terrain and glide effortlessly. But when terrain starts to grow uneven, the Bex can stand and manoeuvre on four highly-articulated legs utilising a stride that ensures at least half of them are touching the ground at any given time, substantially decreasing the balancing act it needs to execute.It Can Transform Into an Electric ScooterWatch the Kawasaki Robotic Goat In Action!The Bex\u2019s load capacity is rated at roughly 220 pounds, so in addition to hauling big objects, it can carry human passengers who guide the quadruped using a standard pair of handlebars. And acknowledging the limited appeal and utility of constructing this bot to look like a wild goat, Kawasaki has also built the upper half of the Bex to be totally modular. So clients who wish to focus on hauling freight can do away with the animal image altogether, while those seeing an opportunity to modernise their cattle ranches might perhaps go full equestrian with this robot and bring the cowpoke fully into the 21st century."} {"title": "Apple Earns an EXTRA US$ 6.5 Billion By Removing Chargers and Earbuds", "body": "Apple earns an EXTRA US$6.5 billion by removing chargers\nand earbuds from its new iPhones.

Behold LifeStraw Peak Series which is an awesome filter-as-you-sip straw! It allows you to acquire hydration from even the most questionable water sources with a device that fits comfortably in the back pocket of your pants (or a bag pocket if you don't want to sit on it). For much of the decade or so that the product has been in circulation, it has remained basically unchanged. The LifeStraw Peak Series Straw, on the other hand, is a substantial upgrade.LifeStraw Peak Allows You To Drink Water From Any SourceThe new straw, which is designed to improve on the original, has a more ergonomic shape, a higher water flow rate, and a longer-lasting filter, making it a better product altogether. Simply said, these new water-filtering straws should make your camping, hiking, and other outdoor activities more enjoyable. Or at least you don't have to be worried when you run out of water supply. So is LifeStraw Peak really worth it?Does LifeStraw Peak Really Work?The LifeStraw Peak Series Straw is slightly shorter and slightly thicker than the original, measuring 7.7 x 1.3 inches (length x diameter). It has a microfilter that keeps out silt, sand, and other particulates that produce cloudiness in the water while protecting against 99.999999 per cent of germs, parasites, and microplastics. The microfilter design has been improved, according to the company, to reduce the likelihood of clogging due to particles, guaranteeing a consistent flow rate even when dealing with sand and silt-filled water.How Long Will LifeStraw Peak Last?The company claims that the microfilter used in LifeStraw Peak is also designed to last up to 1,000 gallons (3,785 litres), which should be enough drinking water to last you up to five years, according to the manufacturer. This special straw also meets US EPA and NSF P231 drinking water requirements, implying that it can turn even the dirtiest ponds in the woods into drinkable water. It also has no shelf life, unlike its predecessor, so you may store up on these items and they'll still be used years later.LifeStraw Peak Has No Shelf Life!And it is highly portable!The streamlined design of the LifeStraw Peak Series Straw adds an ergonomic grip to the body, making it significantly simpler to grasp in hand than the prior model's straight tube-like proportions. It contains cap covers on both ends of the tube to protect both openings from damage and contamination, as well as threading and a standard hose connector on the bottom section. Simply put, the new design has made it more durable and suitable to be used outdoors.It Is Compatible With Most PET BottlesThe threading of LifeStraw Peak makes it compatible with most PET water bottle openings, allowing you to fill a large soda bottle with river water that you can filter with the straw and transfer to another container, while the hose connector makes it compatible with any standard gravity hose for a more convenient way of drawing large amounts of water.Watch\u00a0\u00a0LifeStraw Peak Series Straw In Action!By the way, the new straw isn't being released on its own. It's now part of a new Peak Series collection. A squeeze bottle with a built-in filter, a 3L gravity filter, a straw carry bag, and a replacement filter is included in addition to the straw.

No, this isn't an Indian FTR reimagined as a motorised pedal pusher. This isn't even a brand-new bike built from the ground up by the partnership. Instead, it is based on one of Super73's existing scrambler-style models, which is dressed out in numerous embellishments reminiscent of various aspects seen in Indian motorcycle designs.The Indian x Super73 eFTR Hooligan 1.2 is based on Super73's S2 platform, which is a high-performance Class 3 e-bike that has gained popularity among electric bike riders. Of course, they made several alterations to distinguish it, the most notable of which was the battery placement. While the normal S2 maintained it in the top tube on a gasoline tank-like casing, the FTR gas tank is now positioned on the down tube for a lower centre of gravity.

There's Class 1, which is a pedal-assist mode with a top speed of 20 mph; Class 2, which doesn't require pedalling (throttle only) but also has a top speed of 20 mph; Class 3, which engages pedal assist at top speeds of 28 mph; and Off-Road, which unleashes the full power of the motor, allowing it to put out 1200 watts continuous and 2000 watts at its peak.According to the company, it can reach speeds of more than 28 mph in that configuration, and the aggressive semi-knob tyres should assist in smoothing out the ride during true off-road riding.

Did you know that Pikachu was modelled on a squirrel in his appearance? We didn't know that right? Probably because we had always presumed that Pokemon's franchise mascot was based on either a hamster or a rat, preferably the former rather than the latter because it's far too adorable to be one of those plague-causing rodents that live in the city sewers. But it turns out that we were wrong. The original artist, Atsuko Nishida, is said to have drawn it in the likeness of a tree-dwelling mouse, according to reports. With the Brando Pokemon Pikachu Wireless Mouse, none of it matters, as the small, fat, and yellow rodent is transformed into a computer mouse of the computer-gaming sort.Brando Pokemon Pikachu Wireless MouseThe most popular Pokemon of all time is now available as a mouse peripheral for your computer, allowing you to move around your desktop, drag and drop objects and execute right- and left-clicks while chanting pika-pika over and over again. Or anything along those lines. You don't have to be a total Pokemon fan to enjoy Pikachu's lovely appeal; whether you're a Nintendo fanatic who has played every Pokemon video game or just someone who appreciates the cuteness of the animated rodent, this device puts the animated rodent right on your mouse pad. Though not as cool as Razer's Pikachu gaming mouse, this wireless mouse is really loaded with maximum cuteness!Pikachu Sleeps On Your MousepadWith its eyes closed and its limbs extended out, the yellow Pokemon Pikachu is shown in a profound state of slumber on the Brando Pokemon Pikachu Wireless Mouse. So that it appears to be sleeping sweetly while it is resting on your mousepad is possible. Given the serene and happy expression on its face, we believe it did not collapse as a result of tiredness following a long and arduous training session. Or, perhaps, it did. We'll never know the truth. In any case, it rests fully flat on its stomach, making it simple to move it around on a flat surface like you would a normal mouse.Pikachu's Ears Are The Left and Right ButtonsPikachu's ears were created to serve as the right and left mouse buttons in order to keep the mouse function as discrete as possible. As a result, you won't even notice them until you're actually clicking your cursor on various elements on the screen. Yes, the buttons are fairly discrete in their placement. The scroll wheel in the centre, on the other hand, is less subtle, giving the impression that the rodent-like pocket monster has grown a little mohawk while going through a rebellious adolescent period. Or anything along those lines.It appears that the Brando Pokemon Pikachu Wireless Mouse has a resolution of 800 dpi; however, it does not appear to be customizable, indicating that it is more of a typical productivity accessory than a gaming device. This wireless mouse, like the vast majority of wireless mice, does not use Bluetooth. Instead, it comes with a little dongle receiver hidden inside the mouse that you can connect into an open USB port to pair with your computer. According to the company, the wireless connection has a range of 26 feet when used in an indoor environment.This Pikachu Mouse is powered by an AA BatteryIt's ambidextrous, with identical forms and proportions on either side, making it equally comfortable for left- and right-handed users alike. It is powered by just one single AA battery, and it's compact and lightweight. The mouse's dimensions are 4.5 x 2.9 inches, which makes it a little on the large side for a PC mouse. Thus it's probably best suited for people who have larger hands. It is compatible with Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. The Brando Pokemon Pikachu Wireless Mouse comes with a price tag of $51 (RM219).

As a video-oriented variation of the original R5 model, it has the capability of recording footage in up to 8K quality. It is armed with an advanced active cooling mechanism that allows it to record high definition films for extended periods of time without overheating.Canon EOS R5 C Arriving In MalaysiaTo refresh your memory, the Canon EOS R5 C is a mirrorless digital camera that is equipped with the same full-frame 45-megapixel sensor as the previous generation. The Dual Pixel CMOS AF II technology and Digic X image processor from the firm are also included in the package. Unlike the original EOS R5, this particular edition, on the other hand, does not include an in-body stabilisation mechanism. Additionally, a mode switch has been added to the camera, which allows users to choose between the normal R5 mode for photography and the Cinema EOS mode for video capture.Record Video in 8K at 30fpsThe EOS R5 C is capable of delivering continuous burst shots at 12 frames per second utilising the mechanical shutter or 20 frames per second using the electronic shutter. It can also record in 8K at 30 frames per second on battery power and up to 60 frames per second when connected to an external power source. There are three separate 8K 12-bit RAW modes and a 10-bit XF-AVC mode for 4K movies available on the camera's internal memory. The fact that 4K or 1080p videos are oversampled from 8K for greater clarity and noise reduction should not be overlooked.Canon EOS R5 C Sports a New Active Cooling MechanismAs previously stated, the camera is equipped with a new active cooling mechanism, which allows it to have a broader side profile than the R5 basic model.

The Find X5 Pro, which was announced ahead of the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, which officially begins on February 28th, may cause some readers to be perplexed, considering Oppo's last flagship device was the Find X3 Pro, which was released in 2021. China believes the number four to be alarming, which may explain why the Chinese smartphone manufacturer missed it this year and instead chose to launch Find X5 immediately after.Oppo Find X5 Pro-The Ceramic BeautyThe Oppo Find X5 Pro develops the previous year's model in terms of fundamental specifications. You will be mesmerized by the huge 6.7-inch AMOLED screen with a refresh rate of 120Hz refresh rate.\u00a0Two 50-megapixel camera sensors are found on the rear of this device. However, there are several upgrades on the surface and the inside, making the new Find X5 Pro a formidable rival for the title of most powerful Android phone available. I have a strong feeling that it will give iPhone Pro Max and Google Pixel Pro a run for their money.6.7-inch AMOLED DisplayAside from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 CPU, the Oppo Find X5 Pro also has Oppo's new Marisilicon X imaging neural processing unit (NPU), which the company claims helps with high dynamic range (HDR) photography and low light video. The rear camera system comprises two Sony IMX766 sensors with a combined resolution of 50 megapixels, one of which is used for wide-angle photography and the other for ultra-wide photography. There's also a 13-megapixel telephoto camera on the back for zooming in, and a 32-megapixel selfie camera on the front for taking selfies.Dual 50MP Rear CamerasThe cameras on the Oppo Find X5 are excellent, with precise details and accurate colours in good light and acceptable low-light and HDR shooting. The camera has a good amount of speed. It took only 0.2 seconds to record the low-light shot below, and it performed somewhat better than a lot of other smartphones in terms of colour fidelity; nonetheless, the photo might have been a bit crisper.In Pro mode, you'll have access to Hasselblad's Natural Color Calibration, which is a feature that's not available in other modes. You also receive a pair of Master filters that have been tweaked by Hasselblad, albeit they are only usable in the camera's default Photo, Video, and Portrait modes, not in any other settings. However, not all settings are easily accessible on the camera interface, which has a million options (which includes the aforementioned Master filters, which are tucked behind the \"retouch\" icon).Hasselblad's Natural Color CalibrationThe selfie camera is pretty capable, and its 32-megapixel sensor can capture a great deal of detail; however, the phone had some issues with sharpness at times during our testing. There should also be a few comments regarding the phone's appearance, which sticks out amid a sea of similar-looking Android smartphones.However, while the curved edges of the display aren't the favourite feature for many people, the phone's ceramic back (which Oppo claims is scratch-resistant) is beautiful, especially in white. Even the large camera hump, which rises naturally and softly from the rear, appears to be in terrific shape. Even though the phone weighs 218 grammes, it feels exceptionally substantial and small in hand, just like a genuine flagship should.5000mAh battery that charges to 50% in 12 minutesIn addition, Oppo is well-known for its rapid battery charging technology, which has been implemented into this device. The Find X5 Pro is juiced by a big 5,000mAh battery that can be recharged from \"around zero\" to 50% capacity in as little as 12 minutes thanks to its 80watt VOOC. It also offers wireless charging capabilities of up to 30W and reverse wireless charging.The Find X5 Pro is equipped with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage space. Other amazing features include a built-in fingerprint sensor under the display, dual speakers, a 5G connection, and dust and water resistance up to IP68 standards.

I really dig the slogan Love Is In The Hair! Dyson wants to celebrate its core airflow technology this Valentine\u2019s Day with the Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer and the Dyson Airwrap Styler, proving the ideal gift for loved ones.Dyson\u2019s love affair with airflow technology has been at the heart of Dyson\u2019s engineering journey since the beginning. Starting with the DC01 in 1993, airflow first featured in Dyson vacuum cleaners within Dyson\u2019s cyclonic technology, then, in Dyson fans and purifiers, engineering airflow to multiply and project air further. Lastly, airflow was championed in Dyson\u2019s haircare range to achieve the same styles at lower temperatures, maintaining hair health by reducing the reliance on heat.Dyson Valentine's Day Sale-Love Is In The HairAirflow is a core part of Dyson\u2019s DNA. In the words of James Dyson, \u201cin order to fix it, you need a passionate anger about something that doesn't work well.\u201d The Dyson story focuses on solving problems others ignore, reinventing the outdated and engineering the future \u2013 but airflow is a lasting romance.Dyson Air Multiplier technologyIt all began when Dyson engineers started looking into hair care back in 2012, investing \u00a350 million into the development of Dyson\u2019s first-ever hair tool. Dyson engineers found that a powerful airflow could be achieved if the air was taken into a motor and accelerated over an annular aperture \u2013 this is the iconic ring-shaped head that can only be recognised as Dyson\u2019s first-ever hair dryer, and in 2016, the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer was launched.The traditional model and technology of the humble hair dryer had seen very little change since the 1960s. Traditional hair dryers often have a weak airflow and are powered by bulky motors, meaning they are slow at drying. So, Dyson invented the Dyson digital motor V9, a motor that is up to eight times faster than conventional hair dryer motors, enabling the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer to move over 13 litres of air every second.It took 25 variations of the annular aperture for Dyson engineers to fine-tune the balance between noise and performance. When engineers took James Dyson to the acoustic chamber to see the results of a pre-prototype rig, James believed the engineers had turned down the power of the machine to make it quieter. James put his hand in front of the air amplifier ring and was taken aback by the force of airflow. This soon became known as Dyson\u2019s patented Air Multiplier technology.Dyson Coanda TechnologyJust two years after the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer hit the shelves, Dyson revealed a new way to dry and style hair within one tool: the Dyson Airwrap styler. Launched in 2018, the engineering within the Dyson Airwrap styler once again adapted the format of traditional styling tools. The question on everyone\u2019s lips was: how does the Dyson Airwrap styler curl hair with air? The answer: the Coanda effect.The Coanda effect is an aerodynamic phenomenon. Air, when propelled at the right speed and pressure, naturally follows an adjacent surface, pulling in the surrounding air. The Dyson Airwrap Styler harnesses this phenomenon by creating a spinning vortex of air around the cylindrical-shaped barrels of the tool. The barrels attract the hair through the airflow, encouraging hair to wrap itself around the barrel and curling it using the air vortex.It took in the region of 500 prototypes to perfect the curling barrels featured on the Dyson Airwrap styler. The first two initial development rigs for the Dyson Airwrap styler came as a pair \u2013 Dyson engineers had created them side by side and the two rigs were not to be separated, causing Dyson engineers to fondly nickname these two rigs Barbie and Ken after the popular fashion doll couple \u2013 a fitting detail for Dyson fans celebrating Valentine\u2019s Day this year.Today, the Dyson hair care tools are cherished by many universally, backed with research and engineering that continue to inspire, improve, and push innovation for everything about hair, from cortex to cuticle.Dyson Supersonic Hair DryerEngineered for different hair types, the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer is powerful and fast. Powered by the Dyson Digital V9 Motor, the tool uses a fast but focused airflow, is engineered for balance in the hand, is quieter than others and intelligently controls the temperature to help protect hair from extreme heat damage. Dyson\u2019s patented Air Multiplier technology means that the volume of air coming out of the hair dryer is 3x that going into the motor, giving the user the ability of fast drying and styling while reducing the reliance on heat, making it the ideal tool to gift this Valentine\u2019s Day.Unlike many other traditional hair dryers, the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer measures air temperature over 40 times a second to regulate temperature output. This prevents extreme heat damage, to help protect hair\u2019s shine. The Dyson Supersonic hair dryer is priced at RM1,899 from Dyson Demo Stores and https://www.dyson.my/products/hair-care/dyson- supersonic-hair-dryer/overview.Dyson Airwrap StylerAt the heart of the Dyson Airwrap Styler comes a radical idea: harness the Dyson Digital V9 Motor to create an aerodynamic phenomenon known as the Coanda effect. The Coanda effect occurs when a high-speed jet of air flows across a surface and, due to differences in pressure, the airflow attaches itself to the surface. Air, when propelled at the right speed and pressure, naturally follows an adjacent surface, entraining surrounding air.Taking advantage of this principle, Dyson\u2019s team of aerodynamicists created a way to style hair using only air combined with heat. The result, whether choosing to curl, wave, smooth or rough dry hair, creates a natural look with a sleek finish, whilst helping prevent extreme heat damage, making the Dyson Airwrap styler the ideal gift for loved ones who love creating salon styles while looking after their hair.The Dyson Airwrap styler is priced at RM2,199 from Dyson Demo Stores and https://www.dyson.my/products/hair-care/dyson-airwrap/overview.Dyson Corrale StraightenerThe only hair straightener with flexing plates, the Dyson Corrale straightener features pioneering micro hinged plate technology, which flexes to shape and gather hair, applying even heat and tension to all the hair strands in every pass and keeping them perfectly aligned, reducing the reliance on heat.Much like the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer and the Dyson Airwrap styler, the Dyson Corrale straightener features Intelligent Heat Control technology. Suitable for all hair types, this unique styling tool features three precise temperatures, using a platinum sensor that measures the temperature 100 times a second. This technology communicates with a microprocessor, which in turn controls the heating system to deliver precise, accurate heat. Combined with Dyson\u2019s 4-cell lithium-ion battery technology, the Corrale straightener also delivers cord-free performance, making it the perfect tool to gift loved ones who want to care for their hair by reducing heat damage without compromising on style.The Dyson Corrale straightener is priced at RM2,199 from Dyson Demo Stores and https://www.dyson.my/products/hair-care/dyson-corrale-straightener/overview."} {"title": "Stay Safe On The Road With These Helpful Car Gadgets", "body": "The right car gadgets can drastically improve road safety.

Have you thought about smart home automation? What is considered \"smart\" varies from person to person, but one thing we can always agree upon is that we want our houses and everything in them to be as seamless and user-friendly as possible. Everyone is familiar with the concept of automation, but there are 5 particular pieces of smart home technology that will soon become household staples.What is a smart home?Smart home automation\u00a0is just what it sounds like, a home that uses technology to simplify tasks and allow the occupants easier access to information. Smart homes can be as automated as you want them to be, with some features being absolutely essential while others are only used on occasion.What are the benefits of a smart home?There are many benefits to creating a smart home, but there are two main categories that these features fall under functional and lifestyle. Functional is when the appliances in your household do the work for you. It can be as simple as having your lights turn on automatically when you enter a room or telling your coffee maker what time you want it to start brewing.Lifestyle is when you can control things around your house even if you're not physically there. For example, being able to change the colours of your lights is not really essential, but it has a lifestyle factor to it.Top 5 Smart Home Pieces1 . Heating And Cooling SystemsSmart thermostats are one of the most common forms of smart home technology these days and for good reason. Using sensors to detect when you're away or sleeping, they can either cut down on energy costs or make life a lot more comfortable. Imagine getting home from a long day to a house that's the perfect temperature without having to lift a finger.2 . LocksAlthough doors and windows with electronic locks have been around for ages, they were never exactly user-friendly. Now that everything is connected to the internet, that's all changed. Not only can you control electronic locks with devices like Google Home or your phone (no more digging around for misplaced keys!), but some locks now even let you share access with other people without having to give out a physical key.3 . Light Bulbs And SwitchesWith their first release in 2012, smart light bulbs have now become a staple of smart homes. It's easy to see why too! Controls like changing the colour or intensity are just some of the many features that can be accessed with your phone. Not only do they make it easier to set up lighting before arriving home, but they allow you to turn on/off lights when you forget to or leave them on when you're away.4 . Security And Automated CamerasHaving CCTV in your home is always helpful, but there are new security cameras that go beyond saving footage for later. Some smart cameras let you know when there's motion around them and will even send alerts with photos taken of trespassers. With advanced security cameras not only are they helpful with catching thieves, but users can do things like setting up facial recognition to be alerted whenever someone is detected.5 . Kitchen AppliancesIt may seem like a given, but one of the most overlooked smart home appliances is usually the kitchen sink. With so many different options and all of them boasting new technology like Wi-Fi connectivity and haptic feedback (some even having voice assistants built-in), they're not just improving cooking - they're changing the way we do it. One appliance with huge potential is the induction stovetop. Induction cooking heats up faster and uses less energy than regular options, meaning not only do you get a quick meal but it's cheaper too!In conclusion, there are so many great smart homes features out there and they only look to be growing in number. Not only do these features make life easier, but they're also quite affordable and can save you a lot of money in the long run. With that said, it's clear that we will see even more features enter into our homes in the next 10 years."} {"title": "Usher in Chinese New Year with Dyson", "body": "Roar your way to a fresh start in 2022 with a clean home living space, and wow friends and family with your hair looks!Usher in Chinese New Year with DysonDyson engineers solve problems that others ignore.

Once you unfold the device, it will have a width of 141.1mm and a thickness of 6.7mm. Even though it sports a thinner profile when folded, the Magic V is slightly heftier compared to the Z fold.

Swiss outlets report that the manufacturer of a 3D-printed assisted suicide pod called the Sarco capsule has received the official legal approval to be utilized by the public for mercy killing also known as euthanasia.Sarco Suicide Capsule Is Now Legal In SwitzerlandSwitzerland has a couple of legal obstacles to physician-assisted suicide and it has become an accepted practice, with numerous people (frequently those with terminal illnesses such as cancer) opting to end their lives by means of that method each year. A number of other European countries, including Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands have similar policies in place, while a few of their next-door neighbours accept other practices such as passive euthanasia or withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment in particular circumstances.Astonighingly, this is a 3D-printed suicide capsule!In physician-assisted suicide, an eligible patient chooses to die with the aid of a physician, which is frequently indicated simply by composing a prescription for a deadly drug. Throughout euthanasia, a medical provider utilizes active ways to painlessly end the patient's life, and passive euthanasia or withdrawal treatment both involve cessation of medical interventions that prolong the life of the patient.Based on the information provided by\u00a0SwissInfo, creator Dr Philip Nitschke of Australia-based international nonprofit Exit International says that the Sarco \"death capsule\" is \"triggered from the inside by the person planning to pass away\" and can be pulled anywhere, such as \"a picturesque outside setting or in the facilities of an assisted suicide organisation, for example.\" He included that the gadget is developed with the patient's comfort in mind.How Sarco Suicide Capsule Works?\"The capsule is sitting on a tool that will flood the interior with nitrogen gas, which in turn will rapidly lower the oxygen level to 1 per cent from 21 per cent in about 30 seconds,\" Nitschke told SwissInfo. \"The individual will feel a little disoriented and might feel slightly blissful before they lose consciousness. Death occurs through hypoxia and hypocapnia, carbon and oxygen dioxide deprivation, respectively. There is no panic, no choking feeling.\"Nitschke added that death typically follows unconsciousness in such a setting after around 5 to ten minutes. In 2020, he told the website-Exit International requested \"senior advice\" on the legality of using the gadget in Switzerland by the nation's medical evaluation board, and the company recently found out there are no legal issues standing against the method of the gadget's rollout. The first and second models are respectively on screen in a museum and not \"aesthetically pleasing,\" Nitschke added, so \"barring any unanticipated problems\" the first operational system will not be presented (with the help of a local organization) in Switzerland till 2022. Some functions, such as a camera necessary for interaction and recording will still be required equipment.Assisted Suicide Lets You Die With DignityNitschke informed SwissInfo that, ultimately, Exit International intends to develop methods for the procedure to be performed without the requirement that a physician is present for psychiatric review.\"Our goal is to develop an AI system screening system to establish the person's mental capacity,\" Nitschke told the website. \" Naturally there will be a lot of hesitation, especially on the part of psychiatrists. But our initial conceptual idea is that the individual would do an online test and obtain a code to access the Sarco.\"Critics of the Sarco gadget state that it runs contradictory to medical ethics. Dr. Daniel Sumalsy, a professor of biomedical principles at Georgetown University and challenger of assisted suicide, informed Newsweek in 2017 that \"it's bad medication, principles, and bad public policy. It transforms killing into a type of recovery and doesn't acknowledge that we can now do more for symptoms through palliative than ever before.\"Nitrogen gas is used in Sarco Suicide CapsuleIn Switzerland, according to the Guardian, the law only prohibits physician-assisted suicide when it is finished with self-motives, implying that it is normally carried out with the support of non-profit organizations.In 2020, the Daily Beast wrote, some 1,300 helped suicides were performed in Switzerland. Based on a study carried out by Business Insider, data show that from 2019 to 2020 in the Netherlands, euthanasia rates increased by 9% to 6,938 procedures. Regional Euthanasia Review Committees chair Jeroen Recourt informed Dutch paper Trouw such figures were \"part of a bigger advancement. A growing number of generations see euthanasia as a solution for excruciating suffering. The idea that euthanasia is an alternative in the case of helpless suffering is really encouraging.\"Assisted Suicide Should Be Legalized In All CountriesI understand that a lot of people are against assisted suicide or also known as mercy killing, citing that it might be abused by people. Some even say that such a method of discontinuing one's life is controversial and even sinful, akin to playing God. However, I personally agree that assisted suicide should be legalized in every single country especially for those who are terminally ill and that they have exhausted all possible medical interventions. That is why Sarco Suicide Capsule is now legal in Switzerland. Let those who are terminally ill choose to die with dignity.\u00a0"} {"title": "Tesla Mini Cyberquad ATV For Kids For Only US$1900", "body": "Always wanted to own a Tesla but is hindered by the exorbitant price?

", "body": "Any time you buy a new computer, it always seems lightning-fast and ultra-responsive. Most people struggle to imagine a time when they'd need to replace that bit of technology, yet computer hardware has a definite lifespan. What are the advantages of buying a brand new laptop? How long can a laptop last? While that number used to be three years, current thinking is that most laptops will give you three to five years of service.9 Advantages of Buying a Brand New LaptopWhile you don't need to wait that long, you may wonder what, if any benefits you'll see from upgrading to a brand new laptop. Keep reading for some of the key advantages you'll see from your new laptop.1. Improved Overall Laptop PerformanceLaptop performance declines over time for a variety of reasons. One of the big reasons is that the components of your laptop wear down over time. For example, the fan or fans in your laptop will lose efficiency as the hours of use pile up.Another reason is that hardware slowly gets out of date. New software and new versions of operating systems typically look to take advantage of the options opened up by hardware advances. For example, the historical jump to multi-core processors and multithreading CPU features or the introduction of solid-state drives.Those hardware changes allowed computers to operate faster and software to do things it couldn't before. Unfortunately, software designed for those changes tends to operate sluggishly on older systems.On top of all of that, the overall amount of RAM in laptops has increased over time. Once upon a time, 4 GB of RAM was considered more than sufficient. Now, a laptop realistically needs at least 8 GB and preferably comes with 12 GB or 16 GB of RAM.When you upgrade, you get new chips, new drives, and more RAM as standard features, all of which boost performance.2. Avoids Upgrade Limitation on LaptopsOne reason why hardcore computer types keep using desktop systems is that you can do a lot of upgrading on them before you must finally replace them. For example, let's say you're running out of storage on the device. You can add another internal hard drive or solid-state drive to expand your total storage.If the computer is slowing, you can add more RAM. You can easily replace malfunctioning parts like fans and power supplies. If the computer struggles with graphics functions, you typically upgrade to a better graphics card.If you're particularly motivated and knowledgeable, you can even upgrade to a better CPU in some cases. Graphic and CPU upgrades can depend in part on your motherboard, but it's often possible if your computer is only a few years old.All of these upgrade possibilities mean that you can prolong the working life of your computer a great deal.With laptops, your upgrade options are generally limited to things like RAM, storage, batteries, and maybe your wireless card. Once you do that, the only way you can boost performance is with a new laptop.3. Let's You Change Types of LaptopsThere are several types of laptops or laptop-like computers. A few examples include:UltraportableDesktop Replacement or luggablesChromebooksLet's say that you're fresh out of college and you nursed a basic ultraportable through your last couple of years. Now, you taking work as a front-end web developer. That old ultraportable might have gotten the job done in college, but the demands of your job now require the heavy-duty processing power of a pluggable.Or, maybe you needed a luggable for your old job, but your new one doesn't require it. You may only want a Chromebook for basic web surfing and streaming video. Switching laptop types can let you access more functionality or reduce it based on your needs.In some cases, it may just mean switching brands. Maybe you never liked your old laptop and want a new Lenovo laptop instead. Switching brands can let you access different service programs or maybe get a different kind of processor that you like better.4. Improve PortabilityAs laptop technology evolves, what the luggables of yesteryear could accomplish with their 17-inch screens and 8 pounds of weight, you can often achieve with a current 5-pound laptop sporting a 14-inch screen. Moving to a smaller laptop can reduce performance somewhat relative to a larger current model. It will likely still feel like an upgrade from your old laptop.That smaller screen and lighter weight also make the laptop more portable. You can switch to a smaller laptop bag. Plus, it's less of a decision about whether or not you want to take the laptop with you.5. Better ProcessorsNew processors don't come out on a fixed schedule, but a new generation usually shows up about every 12 to 18 months. If you've had your laptop for four years, your current processor may be as much as four generations behind current models.If nothing else, you can usually find an upgrade in terms of processor speeds. For example, if your old laptop is giving you anything less than around 3.0 GHz, it's way behind the curve. You'll see a meaningful improvement in overall performance and laptop experience with a processor rocking 3.0 GHz or better.While dual-core chips are still pretty common and fine for standard work, quad-core chips are more and more standard. Quad-core chips really show their worth with processing-intensive tasks, such as video or audio editing. A good graphics chip will also prove its worth with high-level gaming and video production tasks.6. Solid-State DrivesIt's still common to find hard disk drives in lower-end laptops. HDDs are perfectly serviceable and cheaper for general storage purposes. The problem is that they are slow when it comes to things like loading your operating system.That might work out okay first thing in the morning while you glare at the coffee maker and wonder why you didn't hit a Starbucks on the way into work. It becomes much more frustrating when you're out somewhere and want to get a little bit of work done.Solid-state drives work off the same basic principles as flash memory in tablet computers. It makes those drives remarkably fast in terms of loading up your operating system. It's why so many companies will now use solid-state drives as boot drives while installing a secondary HDD for more mundane storage.If you've never worked with a laptop sporting a solid-state drive, it will boost your overall user experience a lot.7. CustomizationBuying laptops these days is a bit different than it was even a few years ago. The standard was that you pretty much got the specs on the box or you bought yourself another model of laptop.These days, you can do a lot of customization when you order a laptop. For example, you can specify better chips, solid-state drives, and even add extra RAM right in the ordering window.These options aren't universally available for every laptop, but you can find those options for many of them. That gives you a golden opportunity to control costs. It also gives you a golden opportunity for future-proofing your laptop.Since upgrading laptops once you have them is both difficult and limited, the more you can future-proof your laptop out of the box, the longer you can expect it to last. Opting for a higher-end chip, more RAM or even the maximum RAM for that model, and solid-state drives with more storage will help extend the laptops working life.8. Improved StabilityAs a general rule, laptops don't suffer the same kinds of hardware-based compatibility crashes you see on desktop computers, especially home-built models. Since the manufacturers know that most of those components will never come out of the case, they do extensive testing for hardware and firmware compatibility.That makes laptops surprisingly stable in their operation. Of course, age and endless rounds of updates can start to compromise that compatibility and stability. Your laptop will likely grow twitchier as it gets older.A new laptop will show the same kind of stability you saw with your old laptop in the earliest days. All the components went through compatibility testing far more recently and with the latest firmware. That model of laptop was likely also built around the latest version of an operating system.All of that buys you several more years of highly stable performance from your device.9. A Brand New Laptop and YouBuying a brand new laptop isn't just a status thing. Laptops age out of useful performance over time because their components are largely fixed. A new laptop offers you real benefits.It lets you access newer chips. It also lets you decide on whether or not to go with a different type of laptop. Customization options even let you futureproof your laptop in ways that were largely unavailable even a few years ago.Looking for more benefits of laptops or tech tips?

A Comprehensive Guide", "body": "There has never been a better time for solar power, with costs having dropped over 70% in the last 10 years. If you\u2019re interested in the freedom and cheap energy that solar offers, you may have found yourself wondering how do solar panels work to create power? In fact, this could be one of the best home renovation ideas you can start working on right now for your house or other properties.How Do Solar Panels Work Exactly?The first thing you should know about how do solar panels work is that there are two main types of solar energy. The first is the more common photovoltaic technology which directly converts sunlight into electricity using semiconductors. The more rare version is solar thermal energy which uses the heat of the sun to produce electricity.If you get a solar system for your home, it is far more likely to be solar photovoltaic. SV systems are also what you probably think of, the large panels on top of or beside a home or cabin are what most people think of when they think of solar power. Since that\u2019s the most common and important type of solar power, let\u2019s break it down.Solar PhotovoltaicSolar Photovoltaic technology turns light or solar radiation into usable electricity. To do this, the panels have semiconductors in them, and when the sun shines on them, they release electrons. These electrons are what generates power, charging batteries, and supplying your home.Solar PV technology is what uses solar panels, and requires direct sunlight to generate energy or release electrons. This is why during periods where there is no sunlight it can\u2019t generate energy. To be even more effective, home solar panels are placed together in groups called modules to capture more of the sunlight or put on roofs.This type of technology uses the most abundant resource humanity has access to, sunlight. This is why it is considered a renewable resource, as there\u2019s no lack of sunlight, nor does it have a finite amount to deliver over less than cosmic time periods.What Material Do Solar Panels UseThe key to solar panel technology is silicone, which is what the cells of the solar panel are made of. Solar panel science continues to progress, with many different types and forms of silicone being tested to provide even more efficiency. The relatively scarce metals that are also used are one of the things that keep the price higher when buying solar panels.Advantages of Solar PowerThere are a lot of reasons for going solar, from financial to personal ethics. Solar panels can produce an almost endless supply of energy without contributing carbon emissions that fuel climate change. There are a lot of reasons why the industry keeps growing and among homeowners why they are going solar.Solar Panels And Your HomeHopefully, this answered the question, how do solar panels work? It is inarguable that the growth of solar has been a positive for both the planet and those of us that want cheap, renewable energy for our homes.If this post was informative, be sure to browse our site for other interesting articles!

So now all the hidden dust under your sofa or the bread crumbs underneath your dining table can be easily and quickly picked up by this new Dyson cordless vacuum.Glide in any direction easily!You will notice that traditional vacuums are not that user-friendly when it comes to cleaning your house. In fact, there are also other cordless vacuum cleaners that cannot easily reach tight, inflexible spaces not thanks to a badly-designed cleaner head. With that in mind, the brilliant engineers at Dyson have created this omni-directional Fluffy Cleaner head that can move and glide in any direction including those difficult nooks and crannies. So no dirt, dust, and hair can now hide!2. Counter-Rotating Brush BarsComplementing the Omni-Directional Fluffy head cleaner head are the two amazing counter-rotating brush bars. Unlike other Dyson cordless vacuums, the Omni-Glide features 2 counter-rotating brush bars that spin at the same speed, enabling super-efficient pick up in both directions. In other words, this mechanism can easily suck anything in its path, leaving only clean traces in its trails. I can imagine being trapped and grabbed by 2 counter-rotating traps! *Gosh* So if you are speckles of dust or dirt, you would be running for your life.3. In-line format for Omni-GlidePerhaps one of the most remarkable innovations that you could see is the brand new in-line format. Essentially, that means the motor, the separation system, filter, and handle are all aligned, allowing the Dyson Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum to lie FLAT to the floor. I have never seen any vacuum is able to do so. Being able to lie flat is really a big deal as it unlocks tight spaces that will otherwise be impossible to reach. So now vacuuming under the sofa or between furniture is virtually a breeze.Easily glide underneath any tight spaces4. Dyson Hyperdymium MotorThe reason why Dyson is one of the best cordless vacuums in the market is the fact that it is powerful enough to replace traditional vacuums cleaners. Though the Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum is compact and light, it still packs a massive punch and suction power thanks to the Dyson Hyperdymium Motor. Spinning rapidly at 105,000rpm, true, robust suction is achieved and no fine dust can escape. The five stages of filtration then complete the job, capturing 99.99% of particles as minute as 0.3 microns.5.

Personally, I prefer the classic trigger which makes vacuuming fun and more \"immersive\" for me. However, replacing the trigger with a power button is really a good move as it allows you to easily change hands while you are vacuuming. So cleaning is now more fluid and hassle-free with just the push of a button.7.

Apple has been branded with the adjectives 'brilliant,' 'creative,' and 'fundamental' after years of dominating the technological industry. But how come this is so? Read on to find out the 5 reasons why Apple is so successful!Apple is one of the most successful corporations in history. Even while the firm was struggling, it was recognized for its creative spirit. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, Apple began its journey to supremacy in a variety of technological sectors, establishing itself as the trendsetter in mobile platforms.What makes Apple so appealing and unique? How does the firm maintain its strong standing even decades after the launch of its first desktop computers, and what is it about the company that creates such enthusiasm and loyalty among its customers? In this article, we will explore the reasons why Apple is as big as it is now.5 Reasons Why Apple Is So Successful1. Ahead of the CurveApple has always been and will continue to be years ahead of its competition. In a literal sense. Apple has a habit of staying at least two years ahead of the curve, which means that an Apple product, such as the first iPhone, introduced in 2007, totally controlled the market before others like as Samsung and Motorola debuted their smartphones in 2009 and 2010. This idea of constantly keeping ahead of its competition by creating and producing items that will be launched years in the future has distinguished Apple from most other firms.As discussed in several movies and books, Apple has always encouraged originality, which is why the products, although being imagined years ago, do not get outdated. One of the main reasons that a technological giant like Apple is so committed to its products and vision is that it keeps its competitors on their toes.2. Improvement and Brand AwarenessApple does not release products merely to release them. With each new Apple product, there is some technical improvement that was not seen in the last version of that device. This is one of the reasons why people go to Apple stores and wait in line for hours simply to get their hands on the latest iPhone when it is released.Every upgrade to its operating systems, every new camera function, and every new color released has sparked enthusiasm in its consumers, owing in part to the outstanding presentations delivered by Jobs and his successors, who have branded Apple as a dynamic force you can't afford to ignore.3. Quality of the ProductApple's primary goal for its products was beauty in simplicity. Aside from their beautiful, sleek signature appearance, it was essential for them that their products be simple to use for all age ranges and consumers, as seen by the number of children running about playing Subway Surfer on their parents' iPads. Because of Apple's fixation with greatness, its problems are almost non-existent. Each product is evaluated hundreds of times by professionals before it is approved for mass manufacturing and release.Because Apple's design and programming are nearly perfect, Apple consumers will rarely complain about common concerns like app crashes, virus assaults, or numerous irritating pop-ups. Each product is a ten-fold improvement in existing market technology, taking into consideration frequent difficulties consumers encounter in their products and aiming to eradicate them.4. Range of the ProductOver the years, Apple has constantly released a wide range of products ranging from phones (iPhone), laptops (MacBook), smartwatches, and more, which are steadily increasing. Even though Apple has no technology that is not currently on the market, its consumers nevertheless eagerly anticipate the release of their newest products because Apple just does it better.Considering Apple's purpose of reinvention toward perfection, there is still an entire market of products they may seek to improve in their future products that keep their fans and competitors anxiously awaiting what new experiment they may go on.5. Customer ExperienceConsidering that Apple's whole brand is focused on satisfying and catering to the requirements of various consumers, it's no wonder that their customer service is virtually unrivaled. Apple's enormous sales success over the years is due in large part to the devotion they develop in its customers, a reality they are aware of.To summarise, we can all agree that Apple has managed to maintain its popularity in the industry by consistently developing excellent strategies and marketing for the company's success. However, the main reason for their success is the great innovation and continuous improvement of their products."} {"title": "Vivo Y20 vs Samsung Galaxy A10 - Which Model Is Your Choice?", "body": "\nThe smartphone business is one of the most important in the world today, and it is\ncontinuously expanding rapidly.

There are various functions of bus Internet in a fleet company. Can you imagine traveling for hundreds of miles without accessing your Twitter or Instagram accounts, keeping up with emails, or streaming your favorite music? It is an unimaginable situation.\u00a0 Bus Internet makes all these accessible by bringing connectivity into buses, coaches, and other passenger vehicles.6 Functions of Bus Internet in a Fleet CompanyBut have you ever wondered how useful the bus Internet is? Those who have installed reliable Internet technology in their buses can attest that it has numerous uses apart from just entertaining passengers. That said, let us dive into the functions of high-speed bus Internet.1. Entertainment Through Bus InternetBus TVs and music systems are the main sources of entertainment when traveling. A reliable bus Wi-Fi system allows passengers to stream music, watch online TV, play online games, and watch movies among other activities. If passengers do not want to use the provided TV screens, they can access Wi-Fi using their devices to watch what they want.Therefore, the fleet company should have reliable devices that can access and transmit the Internet from various cellular Internet providers in the region. Fortunately, any fleet owner or company can go right here to see some great bus Internet devices.2. Bus Internet for Social ConnectivityBoth adults and kids are now on social media, and they need to access their platforms wherever they are. Even when traveling, people need to update their profiles and read what is happening in their social circles. And this is where bus Internet comes in; access to Wi-Fi allows passengers to connect their devices and use all their social media with ease. Reliable Internet does not disconnect because the devices have access to different cellular ISPs.3. Working Using Bus InternetTraveling for business may require you to respond to emails, work on an online document, or access various work apps using a laptop, tablet or other gadgets. When traveling on a bus with the Internet, it will be easy to connect your laptop, mobile phone, or tablet and continue working. Even buses that transport employees have bus Internet to make sure that any employees who need to work on the go have access to Wi-Fi.4. AdvertisementsDid you know that your passenger fleet company can make extra income through digital advertisements run on your bus TVs? Fleets have partnered with other businesses to run digital ads targeting passengers for a fee. This is only possible with the presence of bus Internet, which keeps fresh ads running as passengers access various visual content such as movies, TV, and games.5. Fleet Surveillance and ManagementFleet tracking, surveillance, and other management tools require bus Internet to transmit data in real-time. Fleet managers and owners rely on the onboard Internet to access the GPS tracking, dashcam, ELD, and APC data remotely whenever they need to. Additionally, the crew can make reports on different apps, which has eliminated errors made in paper reports.ConclusionFrom the above insights, it is clear that bus Internet is very crucial for fleet companies. They cannot afford to run a business without it especially if they want to grow. This should compel any fleet owner or manager to take this great opportunity seriously.Images credit:\u00a0Shutterstock "} {"title": "Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite Priced at RM699 For Online Learning", "body": "With the pandemic seems to be getting a bit worse or out of control, students in Malaysia have no choice but to wait with bated breath before they could return to school. Hence the release of Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite priced at RM699 is really a boon for students learning from home. It is increasingly clear that more and more students need a reliable tablet or laptop to aid them in their online learning and the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite seems to be the answer.Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite Priced at RM699Parents who wish to grab this wallet-friendly tablet can pre-order via online retailer Mobile2Go. This WIFI version of Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite is actually the even more affordable alternative to the 10-inch Galaxy Tab A7 that was launched in the year 2020 with a price tag of RM799. Since this is the \"lite\" version, do expect some compromises in terms of hardware and performances. Let's find out.Is this the cheapest tablet from Samsung so far?Despite its affordable price tag, Galaxy Tab A7 Lite is a capable tablet!Unlike its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite comes with an 8.7-inch TFT screen with a resolution of 1340x800 pixels. Despite the relatively smaller size, I honestly believe it is still big enough for students who want to use it as their primary device for their \"Study From Home\". Then again, those who want something smaller and portable would appreciate its diminutive 8.7-inch display.Its display size, weight, and thickness make it ideal for studentsSince this is a budget-friendly tablet from Samsung, its hardware is nothing to shout about but will be more than enough to handle your Zoom calls, Google Meets, and watching online presentations. Under the hood, the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite is powered by MediaTek Helio P22T Processor which is of course an entry-level SoC. You will get 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage that fortunately can be expanded via MicroSD card.The 8MP rear camera and 2MP selfie camera should be more than enoughIn terms of photography, the rear shooter is equipped with an 8MP main camera while the front-facing camera is a 2MP selfie camera. The rear camera will be more than enough for you to snap your assignments, written essays, and homework for upload while the selfie camera though basic, will be more than enough for all your video call needs during your online learning sessions.Comes with Dolby Atmos sound!3.5mm headphone jack is included!Though it is affordable for a Samsung tablet, the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite will still have dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos! Wow! The best part is you will still get your 3.5mm headphone jack which I think is a must for online learning, especially for students. To learn online via Google Meet and Zoom calls by using wireless earbuds can be really frustrating and that is why the inclusion of a headphone jack is really brilliant.What colour do you prefer?Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite will be powered by a huge 5,100mAh battery that charges via USB-C which supports 15W adaptive fast charging. Tipping the scale at 366grams and comes with a thickness of 8mm, this affordable tablet from Samsung will be sold in 2 different colours of Grey and Silver.\u00a0Running on Android 11 and overlayed by Samsung OneUI 3.1 skin, the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite is definitely one of the cheapest tablets that you can buy for your children for their online learning.[\u00a0Best deal on Shopee ##thumbs-up##\u00a0]"} {"title": "Razer Clearbot To Clean Up The Ocean For Us", "body": "Our mother earth needs our saving more than ever especially our ocean which has been heavily polluted.

This budget-friendly device is currently the cheapest 5G-capable smartphone from Samsung. If you want an affordable (RM1,199 only) smartphone that is 5G-ready, long battery life, and can take decent photos as well as videos, then this is the smartphone that you should get.Samsung Galaxy A32 5G: My In-depth ReviewLike I have aforementioned, the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G is a no-frill no-nonsense smartphone that can easily fit into anyone's budget. Despite its cheap price tag, you will be astounded to know that it boasts 5G connectivity and at the same time still have great hardware (8GB RAM + 128GB Storage) to back it up. The best part is, you will love its decent quad cameras that will give you more than what you have bargained for.4G LTE or 5G Variant?In our Malaysian market, Samsung Galaxy A32 has been officially released in 2 different variants namely the 4G LTE model and the one that I am currently using-the 5G model. So what is the difference(s)? Obviously, the latter supports 5G connectivity so you can enjoy blazing-fast Internet once 5G becomes available in Malaysia. However, in terms of display, the 4G LTE model has the upper hand thanks to its 90Hz AMOLED screen while the 5G variant only has an LCD display to show. Other than that, both the models appear to be carbon copies of each other.Elegant DesignThough Galaxy A32 5G is just a budget smartphone, the company ensures that it looks good as well. The back cover appears to be adorned with glossy plastic which exudes quite a lot of charm similar to the more expensive real glass. This new design also allows the cameras-bump to be slightly less conspicuous both visually and physically which is really a bonus. I also like how the fingerprint sensor has been moved to the side which makes it easier for me to unlock the device. The only downside is its thickness that some might not like.Side fingerprint sensor (bottom)Display-A CompromiseI wish that the display of the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G could have been better. However, it is a pale comparison when you put it side by side with its 4G LTE sibling. I am slightly disappointed to know that the 6.5-inch Infinity-V display of A32 5G comes with 720x1600 pixel screen which has a refresh rate of 60Hz. You will not be getting any AMOLED display and instead, you will have to make do with the IPS\u00a0 LCD display.Having said so, the display of Samsung Galaxy A32 5G is capable of hitting a peak of 557 nits which is really good. That means you can still enjoy any content on your smartphone under broad daylight easily thanks to its excellent brightness without squinting your eyes. In terms of colours, they are quite punchy and vivid as well for my liking. I believe that an LCD screen is used to save cost and battery at the same time. So it is a compromise.Cameras-Surprisingly DecentShutterbugs will be happy to know that Samsung Galaxy A32 5G is actually a pretty decent smartphone for you to capture beautiful photos and videos for your social media feeds. Get ready to snap away with the great\u00a0quad-camera setup. To recap, you will get\u00a0a 48MP f/1.8 main shooter, 8MP f/2.2 Ultra-wide angle lens, 5MP f/2.4 Macro camera and last but not least a 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor. On paper, these cameras sound pretty good especially when you can shoot 4K quality videos!Initially, I did not expect to snap great photos with the Galaxy A32 since it is not a flagship device. Though it lacks optical stabilization, the photos captured look surprisingly good especially when lighting is not an issue. Colours reproduced are richer with vibrant hues popping up thanks to the considerably lower noise. Overall, the cameras have performed well if you do not use too much digital zoom.Normal outdoor shotUsing the Wide-Angle LensNormal photo modeWhen I use the 10X digital zoom... \ud83d\ude0210X Digital ZoomSince optical zoom is not possible, you still have 10X of digital zoom at your disposal but then again this is not recommended. In my opinion, the more you zoom (digitally), the more \"stretched\" the image appeared to be, rendering it to look more like a painting instead of a real-life photo. Still, it is good if you were to add filters before posting them on your social media accounts. It might turn out to be abstract photos. LOL \ud83d\ude01Excellent PortraitsNow let us talk about the Portrait Mode of Galaxy A32 5G, shall we? If you post a lot of photos on Instagram and Facebook like me, you will know how vital portrait mode is for us. Luckily, Samsung has ensured that they (attempt to) excel in this department. Though not the best, I would say that most of the portraits have been pretty spot on. You could see that the background(s) have been nicely blurred to give more focus on the subject(s). So it is a tick for the Portrait Mode!Beautiful Macro ShotsColour reproduction and dynamic range are quite good as well when it comes to the Ultra-Wide lens of the Galaxy A32 5G. Though upon closer inspection a lot of details are missing, still, shots taken using this mode are really good. How about the Macro Camera? With adequate lighting, my close-up photos using the Macro lens were really beautiful masterpieces. In fact, I could barely distinguish the difference when I compare it to the macro shots taken using my Galaxy Note.Low Light PerformanceI do notice that the low light performance of the Galaxy A32 5G cameras leaves something to be desired. In other words, when you are trying to take photos in a poorly lit place, do expect noise to creep in, making your shots a bit grainy. Fortunately, you can rely on the Night Mode to be your saving grace when capturing photos in dimly lit places. I kinda like using Night Mode a lot too.Let's take selfiesSelfie in Portrait ModeSelfie in a dimly lit roomFront-Facing CameraThe 13MP front-facing camera does an amazing job taking all my selfies and of course making me look really good in virtual meetings. I am honestly impressed with the selfie camera especially when I use it outdoor in broad daylight. Just like the rear quad-cameras, colours reproduction is decent and you will be happy with the sharpness of your shots. Again, the front-facing camera struggles when being used in low light conditions. All in all, in terms of photography, Samsung Galaxy A32 5G performed impressively amazing given its price tag.Great Performance For Mid-Range SmartphoneUnder the hood, Samsung Galaxy A32 5G is powered by\u00a0Mediatek Octa-core Dimensity 720 processor complemented by 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The storage is expandable up to 1TB via MicroSD card. Though not flagship-level hardware, it still performs really well with no noticeable stutter whatsoever. In fact, everything is buttery smooth and snappy thanks to the 8GB of RAM which is more than sufficient for my daily normal usage.Playing Mobile Legends on Galaxy A32 5G is a breezeSee! I even got the MVP! \ud83d\ude0bIf you are a casual gamer like me, you will be delighted to know that I can play games such as Mobile Legends, Clash of Clans and Clash Royale without any hiccups. I am impressed by how responsive Galaxy A32 5G is while I am gaming. Then again, I have yet to try playing any graphic-intensive games. Likewise, my movie-watching and documents-editing sessions have been no-frills as well. Multi-tasking is also a joy as I could seamless open 2 tabs at the same time to be *a~hem* productive.Unbelievable Battery LifeI did not expect the battery life of Samsung Galaxy A32 5G to be this good! It is mind-blowing to know that on a single charge, this smartphone can outlast my Galaxy Note 10 for more than 1 extra day. Yes! Its huge 5,000mAh battery can last you for 2 days for all your normal usages. After watching a few videos for around 5 hours on Youtube, I still have 55% of battery which is crazy. I guess this is achieved thanks to the 720p display which consumes less power.Which will you choose? An AMOLED display (Galaxy A32 4G) or excellent battery life (Galaxy A32 5G) for your smartphone? I will of course choose the latter as I do not want to be plugged into the wall all the time. Charging speed is decent too thanks to the 15-watt adaptive fast charging via USB-C. After testing extensively, I must say that its battery performance alone outshines most of the flagships from Samsung.VERDICTSo is Samsung Galaxy A32 5G worth it? The answer is a resounding YES! Besides 5G connectivity, you will also be getting expandable storage of up to 1TB and even a 3.5mm headphone jack! These two features are like must-have for me. On top of the huge 5,000mAh battery, you can also enjoy buttery smooth One UI 3.0 from Samsung. Of course, the icing on the cake has got to be the impressive cameras which have exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a smartphone with long-lasting battery life, decent cameras and 5G connectivity, then you will really need to buy Samsung Galaxy A32 5G!

Many people don\u2019t bother purchasing any other accessories for their brand new laptops. As long as the power is on, it should be good to go, right? Wrong. There are a number of Apple MacBook accessories that you may not have thought about, but should.3 New MacBook Accessories Your Should Buy Here\u2019s a list of just three of those MacBook accessories that will help enhance the performance of your MacBook while keeping it in great condition.\u00a0 1. Keyboard Covers UpperCase GhostCover Premium Ultrathin Keyboard Cover for $12.95 Imagine \"typinglikethis\" because your spacebar is obstructed by debris and crumbs.\u00a0You need your MacBook's keyboard to use it correctly, so make sure that you protect it from things that could damage it.\u00a0Keyboard covers do just that. They make a perfect seal between your keys and the environment by enclosing them in thin layers of silicone.GhostCover for MacBook A keyboard cover is one of the most important\u00a0MacBook accessories that\u00a0can protect your keyboard from spills, stains, grease, food, and more. It is most likely that you will need to find a technician who can repair your MacBook keyboard if something gets lodged and is not addressed for a long period.\u00a0 You can use keyboard covers to protect your computer, but you can also cause damage if you don't use them properly.\u00a0Apple recommends that you do not leave a keyboard cover on a MacBook, as it can damage the display screen when the laptop is closed. Apple laptops are specially designed to have a tight seal between the keyboard and the display screen. This means there is no space for a cover, no matter how thin. if the additional layer leaves permanent imprints, you may need a MacBook retina LCD repair.\u00a0 The easy solution is to take off the covering after you are done using your laptop. The keyboard protectors are easy to apply and remove.\u00a0Aside from being a great protector, keyboard covers are also great accessories for the MacBook. There are many available designs. They are simple to clean, and they muffle the clicking of the keyboard.\u00a0 2. A Wireless MouseApple Magic Mouse 2 for $79.00\u00a0 MacBooks are equipped with a touchpad, essentially a built-in mouse. One of the great things about owning a Mac is the fact that all of the computer essentials come with it. This does not mean that the accessories compatible with it should be completely disregarded. Hence, the second item in our essential\u00a0MacBook accessories list will be a wireless mouse. The differences between a touchpad and a wireless mouse provide an excellent demonstration of the benefits of adding accessories to your MacBook.\u00a0You may choose to use only your touchpad because it is built-in and there is no additional cost. In this case, you won\u2019t need to worry about carrying a mouse around.\u00a0 Once you turn your MacBook on, it becomes instantly available. At the same time, touchpads can be extremely sensitive and can make controlling the cursor difficult. Each touchpad is only a few inches wide, so you have limited space to work with.\u00a0 Reasons to Add a Mouse to Your MacBookBut you may want to consider getting your hands on (literally) a wireless mouse for several strong reasons. Easily portable No messing with lengthy wires Navigate any page with fewer boundaries\u00a0 You will have less wear on your trackpad when you own a wireless mouse. The built-in trackpads are tough to break, but they do wear out over time so you may need to get a trackpad repair.\u00a0\u00a0 3. Wireless HeadphonesApple AirPods Pro for $249.00 Have you ever tried watching a video on your computer without headphones but got annoyed that you couldn't hear anything? Have you been annoyed when someone else did the same thing?\u00a0Why not just use headphones to avoid these issues? People often avoid using headphones because they don\u2019t want to deal with tangled wires.\u00a0 If you've been looking for an excuse to buy AirPods or other wireless headphones, now you have one.\u00a0AirPods connect to your MacBook through Bluetooth and are completely wireless. You can listen for up to 5 hours on just one single charge.\u00a0Wireless earbuds can elevate your listening experience AirPods are great because they tune out the surrounding sounds and prevent your sound from leaking into the environment. There will be no conflict in sound levels whether you are in a bustling office or a hushed library.\u00a0 It is not always the best to rely solely on MacBook speakers. You may find that raising your laptop\u2019s volume decreases its sound quality, depending on what you are listening to. Wireless headphones, especially AirPods Pro, offer quality sound regardless of volume. So if you are looking for one of the must-have\u00a0MacBook accessories, then you really need to invest in a pair of high quality wireless headphones or earbuds. Accessories Make for Great Quality ComputersKeyboard covers, wireless mice, and wireless headphones are rarely prioritized accessories. However, they can make a difference when you decide to sell your MacBook and move on to the next one. Keeping your laptop's keyboard, touchpad, and speakers in good condition will increase its value in the future, and provide better performance during its service to you.Images credit:\u00a0Shutterstock"} {"title": "Dyson Lightcycle Morph Light: One Light with Four Formats", "body": "Introducing the brand new Dyson Lightcycle Morph Light that tracks natural daylight and intelligently transforms into 4 different formats for various uses.

Wow! This on-the-fly adaptability provides the right light for the time of day depending on your location. How cool is that right?The 4 Different Forms of Dyson Lightcycle Morph Light:1. Indirect LightWhen you use Dyson Lightcyle Morph as indirect light, the intelligent optical head will smoothly rotate 360\u00b0 to bounce light off walls, floors and ceilings. This way, you will be able to enjoy natural light indirectly.2. Task LightIf you need dedicated lighting then this is the form of light you should choose. Task Light will be ideal for a focused, powerful light for work, hobbies, make-up applications and of course intricate tasks as well. Rest assured that Lightcycle Morph is engineered to help you reduce your eye strain and improve visual performance especially when you are in the midst of a visually demanding task.3. Feature LightIf you are looking for a light that can elevate your artwork, then you should switch to Feature Light. In this mode, the light can create dramatic effects, highlighting art, colours and decorative features of your masterpieces. The breathtaking 3-Point Revolve motion enables precise positioning that will definitely be useful for your creative outlets.4. Ambient LightThis is certainly one of my favourite forms for Dyson Lightcycle Morph. The stem lights up to create a soothing, orange glow that will not only be pleasing to the eyes but also set a comforting ambience around it. For a relaxed evening with reduced blue light, just turn on this ambient light. Besides, it is quite romantic, no?From waking up with an artificial sunrise in a bedroom, working with a powerful high-quality task light, enhancing interiors with the dramatic feature lighting or relaxing in the evening with soothing ambient light, the Dyson Lightcycle Morph is the versatile light that will never cease to amaze you for the rest of your life.The Versatile Dyson Lightcycle Morph LightHonestly, I am still baffled by the design and features of this latest light from Dyson. The ambient stem demonstrates that form does not just follow function, but the two disciplines working in tandem to conjure the kind of light that we have never seen before. The Dyson Lightcycle Morph is designed around a distinct aluminium-polycarbonate composite stem, rotationally perforated with 16,740 apertures.The soothing and mesmerizing orange glow from the ambient stemMounted on the stem is an unbelievably Intelligent Optical Head with 360\u00b0 manoeuvrability. The stem is machined to a depth of just 0.7mm and formed of extruded aluminium to deliver a unique balance of high impact resistance and smooth light travel. The micro apertures create a soft gradient to the lit effect and the highly reflective surface inside the aluminium core aids a flawless travel of light down the length of the stem. This sounds really mind-boggling, to say the least!Warming and Comforting like candlelight, right?With an almost transparent aesthetic, the two ultra-thin exposed cables run through the centre of the Dyson Lightcycle Morph. Clamped at both ends under extreme tension, these cables power the optical head in an almost invisible manner - thus achieving a 360\u00b0, uninterrupted lit effect on the stem. When docked as an ambient light, the stem then lights up to create a comforting, orange glow and can be personalized for a relaxing evening with a further reduction of harmful blue light. A colour warming orange filter on the dock then creates the warmest light levels, reducing the colour temperature down further from 2,700K to 1,800K, emulating the colour of candlelight.[message]Jake Dyson, Chief EngineerWhen trying to recreate the characteristics of daylight, the light quality is vital. So we developed a way to protect it for the long term.Long Lasting High-Quality LightDyson\u2019s heat pipe technology draws heat away from the LEDs to provide a non-stop, energy-free cooling cycle, maintaining light quality for a staggering 60 years. Yes! You read it right folks! This Dyson Lightcycle Morph Light can last up to 6 decades and you might not even need to replace it again in your lifetime. Heck, I can already imagine my grandchildren using this Lightcyle Morph.The Light That Reduces Eye StrainWe all are aware that low light, flicker and glare can result in eye strain and visual fatigue. The Dyson Lightcycle Morph is the light engineered to help reduce eye strain effectively and at the same time improve our visual performance. The aforementioned Intelligent Optical Head produces a uniform distribution of high-quality, powerful light while achieving a low flicker score of less than 1% at full brightness thanks to custom drivers and light engines.Precision ModeWhen you switch on the Precision Mode for your Dyson Lightcycle Morph, a colour rendering index of 90 or over (out of 100) is achieved, displaying colours very close to daylight. In this mode, fine drawing, make-up applications, painting or crafts appear truer-to-life. Precision mode helps improve visual performance by emitting a pool of high-intensity light with a cooler (4,600 Kelvin) colour temperature.Personalised & Connected LightAccording to research, a 65-year old needs up to four times more light compared to a 20-year old youth. So thanks to Age Adjust, the Dyson Lightcycle Morph corrects brightness based on the age entered into the Dyson Link app, meaning that the older the user, the brighter the light. The Dyson Lightcycle Morph has pre-set modes: Study, Relax, Precision, Boost, Wake-up, Sleep and Away. It also has manual control with slide-touch dimming and colour temperature selection to define personal light preferences. It\u2019s possible to pre-programme and assign names for up to 20 different light settings, to suit the task or mood.Watch Dyson Lightcyle Morph Light in actionPricing & Availability of Dyson Lightcycle Morph LightThe Dyson Lightcycle Morph will be available from 18th March 2021 onwards, priced at RM2,499 for the Desk variant and RM3,799 for the Floor variant.

Let's find out.Huawei Band 4e You Can Clip To Your ShoeOfficially priced at RM119, Huawei Band 4e will be available in only 2 colour options namely Graphite Black and Mineral Red. However, it can be yours for only RM69 (discount of RM50) when you purchase it on the 19th of February at 10:08a.m. sharp. So make sure to set lots of reminders if you intend to get one for yourself.Huawei Band 4e is available in 2 different coloursWhich do you prefer?It looks mighty similar to the Honor Band 5 that was released back in 2019. One would argue that it is a refurbished carbon copy of it. Speculation aside, Huawei Band 4e comes with a 0.5-inch PMOLED display that can support touch and sliding gestures. So are sliding gestures similar to swiping? \ud83d\ude05 On top of that, the band also features a capacitive home button for better navigation.You can wear it for a swimIf you are looking for a fitness band with a heart-rate monitor then this Huawei Band 4e is not for you. It is saddening to note that there is NO built-in heart rate sensor. However, it does come with 6-axis motion sensor and it is rated to have 5ATM water resistance. So you can wear it while having a swim.Track your cycling, running and basketball-playing performanceIt appears that Huawei Band 4e is capable of detecting and supporting 9 running form metrics which include foot strike pattern, landing impact, ground contact time and even cadence. By pairing the band with its complimentary Huawei Health app, detailed running form analysis will be generated and you will even receive fitness suggestions that will be tailored-made for you. This is made possible thanks to the hand-in-hand partnership of Huawei and China Institute of Sport Science.Get comprehensive data about your workoutHere's something interesting about Huawei Band 4e: Do you know that it can track your basketball-playing performance as well? Yupe! By clipping it to your shoe you can measure your information such as height and hang time, vertical jump data, acceleration and lower-body strength data while playing basketball. Cyclists will be happy to know that the band can also monitor your advanced motions to precisely track your cadence. Wow!You only need to charge it every 2 weeksHuawei Band 4e has a lot of other features as wellInterestingly, Huawei Health App will allow you to pair 2 different Huawei wearables at the same time. Hence you can pair this Band 4e without an integrated heart-rate monitor together with another one which could do the job. This combination allows you to get extensive cycling data that will include speed, calorie, recovery time, heart rates and cycling routes. By pairing Huawei Band 4e together with more advanced fitness bands or smartwatches from Huawei, you can also check your VO2 max.Huawei Band 4e is the perfect \"wearable\" for your shoeOn a single charge, Huawei Band 4e has a rated battery life of up to 14 days which is not bad. A USB to pogo-pin cradle is used to charge the fitness band. It runs on Bluetooth 4.2 which will be more than capable to help you save precious battery life. I honestly believe Huawei Band 4e should not be used as your main fitness band. Instead, you should get it to be clipped on your shoe to monitor your running, basketball-playing or even cycling performance. Without a heart-rate monitor, its price tag of RM119 is a bit expensive and you can get a Mi Band 5 by adding a few more bucks (RM120).

Here's How to Know ", "body": "Wondering Whether to Repair Or Replace Your iPhone? Here's How to Know. Apple replaced a whopping 11 million\u00a0iPhone batteries in 2019.If you're an iPhone user, you're probably familiar with how quickly your phone's battery capacity depletes with age. (It always seems to start when a new model comes out, doesn't it?)Whether your battery is degenerating, your phone got wet, or you simply cracked the screen, there are several things to consider when deciding whether to repair or replace your iPhone.\u00a0Touchscreen Malfunction\u00a0If your touchscreen is acting up but you haven't cracked it, try adjusting your phone's touch sensitivity or restarting the device. If these don't work, try finding a local service choice that can diagnose the problem and repair your phone.\u00a0Overheating When Not in Use\u00a0Most iPhones will heat up during extended periods of use, especially if outside or connected to a charger. However, if you notice your phone doing this when you're not using it, it could be a problem with the battery.If you've recently had your battery replaced, this could be a sign of a more complicated electrical problem with your phone. To avoid injury from overheating, it may be safer to replace your phone.\u00a0Random Shut-Downs and Reboots\u00a0It can be frustrating when your iPhone shuts itself down while you're in the middle of using it. If you notice your phone doing this, it may be a problem with the phone's internal system or battery.\u00a0An iPhone repair shop may be able to fix a phone with this problem, but it could require a factory reset. If the problem is too costly and too time-consuming to fix, you might consider replacing it.Damaged Beyond Repair\u00a0Most iPhones continue to function if the screen is cracked.\u00a0However, if you have a history of dropping your phone or exposing it to moisture, this could eventually impact the phone's performance. You might begin to notice it slowing down, malfunctioning, or becoming less responsive over time.\u00a0When considering whether to fix or replace a severely damaged iPhone, it's important to ask yourself several questions:\u00a0How much will it cost to repair the phone?\u00a0Will it be cheaper to replace it altogether?\u00a0Does your carrier offer phone insurance, warranties, or upgrades?\u00a0How long would it take to repair the phone versus buying a new one?\u00a0If you buy a phone, will you lose any personal data that isn't backed up?\u00a0Is a \"new\" phone necessarily a \"better\" phone?\u00a0Sometimes, buying a new phone doesn't always mean upgrading models. Your current iPhone model may still be available if it was released relatively recently.\u00a0But if you are considering upgrading to a newer model, the cost-benefit analysis is key.\u00a0You want to be sure you're comfortable with the features of newer iPhones, which include no home buttons, bigger screens, and sometimes, no separate port for headphones and chargers. The iPhone 12 also requires a specialized adapter for its charging cables now.Will You Repair or Replace Your iPhone?\u00a0Deciding whether to repair or replace your iPhone is no easy task, especially if you've been using the same phone for years. After all, iPhones don't come cheap, and you want to make sure you're getting your money's worth.\u00a0Ultimately, the decision will come down to the history of your phone and what kind of repairs are needed to keep it in good condition. If it would be too costly \u2014 or even dangerous \u2014 to continue using the same phone, it might be time to replace it.\u00a0Did you find this article helpful?

Though this petite Dyson Digital Motor 9 is relatively petite, measuring at only 27mm wide, its 13-blade impeller is capable of spinning at 110,000rpm. Such rapid spinning generates a whopping 3.2kPa of pressure which then can propel a mind-blowing 13-litre of air every single second. You can do the maths. Throw in the Air Multiplier technology and voila, the Dyson Airwrap and Supersonic can now perform ultrafast drying!Dyson Airwrap StylerAt the heart of the Dyson Airwrap styler gives forth to a rather radical idea: harness Dyson\u2019s digital motor to conjure an incredulous phenomenon known as the Coanda effect. For the uninitiated, the Coanda effect occurs when a high-speed jet of air flows across a surface and because of the staggering differences in pressure, the air flow attaches itself to the surface.Based on this principle the engineers at Dyson\u2019s team of aerodynamicists had perfected a way to style hair using a combination of only heat and air. Hence regardless of whether you opt to curl, wave, smooth or rough dry hair, creates a natural look with a alluring sleek finish. All of this is achieved without any extreme heat damaging your follicles.Dyson Supersonic Hair DryerDesigned for different hair types, the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer is not only powerful but also equally fast. This supersonic hair dryer utilizes a fast and yet focused airflow. Moreover, it is is engineered for perfect balance in the hand and is also amazingly quieter than the other hair dryers in the market. On top of that this Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer can intelligently control the heat to help protect your crowning glory aka hair from extreme heat damage.Unlike many other conventional hair dryers sold in the market, the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer sets itself apart by measuring air temperature over 40 times a second to regulate temperature output. This insane feature prevents extreme heat damage and of course this means your glossy, shiny will always stays perfect.This copper colourway is really killing it for DysonIf you are interested you have to act fast. This limited edition copper colourway is available for the 2020 festive gifting season (Deepavali & Christmast) and they are priced at RM1,799 for the Dyson Supersonic hair dryer and RM2,199 for the Dyson Airwrap styler.

This year two students from the Asia Pacific Institute of Information Technology have earned the title of\u00a0 National Winner at the 2020 James Dyson Award; The award celebrates, encourages and inspires the next generation of inventors and design engineers. The 2020's National Champion for Malaysia is the unbelievable Kuno, which is a sustainable cooler fridge that needs ZERO electricity to run. Yes! ZERO!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe problem That Kuno Strives To Solve\n\nIt is saddening to note that many developing countries are still lacking in basic access to electricity. While access to electricity has been growing amongst the global population in the last three decades, an estimated 1.2 billion, or 16% of the world\u2019s population still live without a fridge. As a result, these communities face basic challenges such as refrigeration, which is known to be the most effective method of food preservation today.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKuno-The Zero-Energy Cooler Fridge\n\nIn a bid to address this problem, the winner of this year\u2019s Malaysia National James Dyson Award Winner decided to engineer a cooler fridge that runs on zero electrical power. Yes. In other words, no electricity is needed for the fridge to function. For the uninitiated,\u00a0KUNO\u00a0is the brainchild of Kuan Weiking and Theodore Garvindeo Seah from the Asia Pacific Institute of Information Technology, is a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to conventional refrigeration.\n\n\n\nKuno has been designed by the two of them to prolong the shelf life of consumables and perishables in hot and dry climates. Interestingly the team drew inspiration from Labu Sayong, a traditional water pitcher moulded from earth clay that can keep water cool naturally and effectively. So that makes perfect sense right now.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow Kuno Works\n\nWith the traditional application of clay, and techniques of double-wall potting, sand fills up the passage in-between both walls, then water will be poured to soak the sand. With the air of the porous outer clay wall and evaporative cooling principle, the evaporation of the water will then draw the heat from the inner chamber by releasing it through the natural quality of the porous clay. This natural phenomenon will bring down the temperature and cools the food that\u2019s stored in the inner core for an extended time. Moreover, the edible plant will be soil planted by just routinely watering the plant, water will flow through the passage for the evaporative cooling process to take place.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFuture Plans For Kuno\n\n\nOver 300 years old of cottage industry are stagnant without fresh innovation for them to make. To stimulate the cottage industry, the success of Kuno that can be produced in a smaller scale and made by hands will bring them a chance to revitalize their income and generate job opportunities, sustaining a livelihood. Next planning is in allocating a fund into further material research, prototyping with various sizes, testing under different weather conditions and regions, collaboration with local pottery makers in creating small scale production for market testing and then to be delivered to suitable regions to fully kickstart the use of Kuno.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKuan Weiking, inventor of KUNO, said:\n\n\u201cAs a product designer, it is important that we look to design solutions that tackle societal challenges or problems - solutions that are both practical and widely accessible. We are grateful to have been given this opportunity to showcase our invention and share our mission to make a positive impact to the environment and local communities.\u201d\n\n\n\nAs National Winners, the team will be awarded RM10,000. KUNO is now competing internationally to be shortlisted in the top 20, and is now also in the running for the titles of International Winner or International Runner-up. Certainly such annual competition is what the world needs and I am glad that Dyson is actively advocating innovation and creation to help better humankind. Certainly Kuno will be much-needed in places whereby access to electricity is scarce.\n\n"} {"title": "Targus Cypress EcoSmart Hero Backpack Is Made From 26 Bottles", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nIntroducing my Targus Cypress EcoSmart Hero Backpack which is made from 26 recycled plastic bottles.

Yupe! With this Game & Watch console, you can actually play arcade games no matter where you go. It was actually Nintendo's predecessor to Gameboy. Honestly I have played with Gameboy before but not a Game & Watch from Nintendo. Hence I am pretty excited when the company announced that it would be reviving this classic mobile game console. Certainly a lot will purchase this novelty because it gives you that sense of nostalgia.\n\n\n\n\nNintendo Game & Watch Super Mario Bros from the 1980s\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore you get too excited *hold your horses*, do note that you will not be getting any other titles of games such as the familiar Donkey Kong, Popeye or any of those \"ancient\" arcade games that you used to play. However, this Nintendo Super Mario Game & Watch will be installed with the complete version of the original Super Mario Bros 2. I guess die hard fans will not be complaining right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGood old familiar control layout\n\n\n\nThis new Nintendo Game & Watch Super Mario Bros looks like a carbon copy of the original handheld game console back in the 1980s. You will get the usual D-pad and two action buttons for you to control your Super Mario. Unlike the black and white screen of original Game & Watch, you will be relieved (or not) to know that this year 2020 version of Nintendo Game & Watch comes with a full colour display. That's really a much-needed upgrade after 30 years right?\n\n\n\n\nThere are 35 different digital clock animations\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJust like the NES Classic Edition, you jump over pipes, stomp on those adorable Goombas with this Nintendo Game & Watch. Apart from the full copy of the original Super Mario Bros 2, you will also be getting Super Mario Bros, The Lost Levels and Ball. So you will be getting quite a few Super Mario games in this handheld Game & Watch. Honestly I do feel that such easy and light games are more entertaining than the stressful and time-consuming ones that we have right now. I guess that is why Nintendo is doing so well reselling their class games.\n\n\n\nWatch Game & Watch Super Mario Bros in action\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNintendo Game & Watch Super Mario Bros will also come with a Time Button. Yupe. Hit the button, and the handheld console will be turned into a digital clock with Super Mario in action in the background. Nintendo claims that there are 35 different animations for your clock screen. This is pretty neat and you will love to use it as your desktop clock or bedside timekeeper right? Don't worry as you do not need any cell batteries. The Nintendo Game & Watch Super Mario Bros allows you to play 8 hours of continuous game on a single charge. It comes with a price tag of US$49.99 (RM200). It will be released on the 13th of November 2020. I wonder when it will hit the shelves in Malaysia.

However that doesn't mean the Beats cannot create awesome speakers as we have seen in the like of Beats Pill 2.0 which gives listeners that irresistible eargasmic sensation right? Today we are going to look at the Pill 2.0 successor in the form of Beats Pill+, which is the most beautiful and best-sounding portable speaker\u00a0that Beats has crafted so far.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeats Pill+ is the portable Bluetooth speaker that you need!\n\n\n\nPill+ looks a bit the same like its predecessor as both sport the capsule-like shape which gives them their name. Hence we could surmise that even after Beats has been acquired by Apple, the Pill+ redesign is not a radical one. Instead the form factor of Pill+ has been refined from its previous iteration to make it even better. It is more solid and feels more durable than Pill 2.0. On top of the Pill+ you will get 4 buttons to unleash its power. A power button on the left, a metallic play or pause button embellished with the unmistakable Beats \"b\" logo; And two more rubberized buttons for volume control on the right.\u00a0 Simple and refined!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApart from the superior craftsmanship and sturdy build, Beats Pill+ is by far the bests-sounding Beats portable bluetooth speaker to date. In other words Beats Pill+ is better than its older sibling-Pill 2.0, and can deliver that eargasmic sensation which audiophiles demand. The two-way active system allows the amplifiers to be built right into the speakers-one for each pair of the tweeter and woofer.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUse the four buttons to easily play music or adjust the volumes.\n\n\n\nBeats claim that such design enables Pill+ to fire different frequencies of the beats (no pun intended) to the designated parts of the speaker which ultimately pumps out a collective symphony of sounds which are music to your ears. No matter what you throw at Pill+ for it to play, everything comes out clearly and fully. No more bass blurring the vocals of the songs; No more piano parts being go missing or inaudible. In other words, Beats Pill+ will deliver near lossless music for you to enjoy.\n\n\n\n\n\nUse your Pill+ to charge your smartphones.\n\n\n\nThough Pill+ is tad bigger than Pill 2.0, it is still very small, portable and convenient enough for you to bring it around. It is relatively light as it tips the scale at 1.5 pounds (680grams). A quick 3-hour charge by plugging in the lightning cable allows your Pill+ to have 12 hours of music playback. More amazingly, you can even use Beats Pill+ to charge your smartphone or other music devices via the USB port of the Lightning port at the back. You can also know more accurately how much juice your Pill+ have by looking at the LED fuel gauge.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am in love with this Red Pill+\n\n\n\nApart from that, Pill+ comes with a few nifty features such as being able to be pair with another Pill+ to amplify the music played or to set up a dedicated stereo channels. Apart from that, with the Pill+ App, anyone can easily sync their smartphones to the Pill+ speaker without actually pressing any of the 4 physical buttons on the speaker. Talking about seamless connectivity. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nThis flap allows Pill+ to be water resistant.\n\n\n\nOf course, one of the highlight features of Beats Pill+ is its Splash Proof ability. This water resistant feature is what most sets Pill+ from other portable speakers in the market. The Lightning charge port, 3.5mm aux input and the full-size USB ports are being covered by a rubbery flap which seals the Pill+ completely to prevent any unwanted water droplets from going in. Being splash-proof, it means you can bring your Pill+ speaker to a pool party to listen to music without really needing to be worried about it.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeing one of the loudest portable speakers in the market, Beats Pill+ holds its own when it comes to sound quality and pure volume.

Flip the phone to the back and you will get a dual-camera system with twin 12MP sensors which features dual-pixel autofocus and a portrait mode which is powered by a superior AI. Flip the Xiaomi Mi 8 to the frot and you will be greeted by a 20MP camera with f/2.0 aperture for more beautiful selfies. The AI on board of the camera can apply the best settings for different scenes and also has \"Studio Lighting\" portrait, which is of course very similar to the one heavily advertised by Apple.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4 Reasons to Buy Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition\n\n\n\n1-Transparent See-through Glass Back\n\nIf I were to choose a smartphone which stands out from the crowd, Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition is undeniably the best-looking phone with \"radical\" design. One just can't take their eyes off the amazing transparent see-through glass back of the Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition the moment you lay yours eyes on it. It is so different and breathe a refreshing air to smartphone designs. Then again, some might argue that a few phones have featured such designs such as HTC U12+. However the transparent see-through glass back of Xiaomi Mi 8 looks more beautiful because the placement of the parts are not truly representative of what are actually inside the phone. So this \"decorative\" transparent see-through glass back is only for decorative purposes? True but it is truly artfully done. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0I am falling in love with this transparent see-through glass back of Xiaomi Mi 8\n\n\n\nThough it is actually a decorative overlay. :p\n\n\n\n2-Infrared 3D Face Unlocks Your Phone Even In The Dark\n\nXiaomi has announced that Mi 8 Explorer Edition is the first android phone to feature true 3-Dimensional face unlock which utilizes infrared light. The application of infrared helps to map out our face accurately. In other words you can unlock your smartphone using your face more securely with Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition. Apart from that, the infrared emitter allows the phone to have other tricks up its sleeves as it can be used for \"Portrait Lighting\" effects and to create animated characters such as Animoji (which is strikingly similar to iPhone X).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore secure face unlock with 3D infrared facial scanning.\n\n\n\n3-In Screen Fingerprint Scanner\n\nIt is a shame that a lot of other so-called Android flagships have yet to integrate in-screen fingerprint sensor or scanner into their smartphones. The first Android phone to have in-display fingerprint sensor is Vivo X21. Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition's in-display fingerprint scanner is designed to be pressure sensitive, meaning that the smartphone will only scan your finger when you press down on the display. This setting eliminates unwanted accidental scanning of your finger and ultimately helps to save your phone battery.\n\n\n\n\n\nPressure sensitive in-display fingerprint scanner.\n\n\n\n4-Unbeatable Cheap Price\n\nXiaomi is the company which offers smartphone buyers more bangs for their bucks. In other words, you will get ultra premium features and hardware for you Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition at a very cheap price compared to other flagship smartphones being offered by likes of Apple and Samsung. At only US$575, Mi 8 Explorer Edition is the flagships killer you have to seriously consider if you are looking for a top level smartphone that has the latest technology and features that will last you for years to come. Some analysts claim that Xiaomi is only earning a few bucks from each of its smartphones meaning that you are not being shortchanged by paying very expensive price for a device (think iPhone X).\n\n\n\n\n\nWill you buy this beautiful Xioami Mi 8 Explorer Edition?\n\n\n\nVERDICT\n\nAll in all, Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition is arguably one of the best smartphones available in the market right now. Its overall package is way ahead of the pack led by other Android smartphones and iPhone X. I would not be afraid to say that with 3D Infrared Face Unlock, In-display Fingerprint Scanner, elegant transparent see-through glass cover and extremely cheap price tag (US$575 or RM2,300 in Malaysia), Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Eidtion is the smartphone of the moment that none other can be mentioned in the same breath as it. Period.\n"} {"title": "OnePlus 6-The Best Flagships Killer Which Is Cheap", "body": "\nI am sure by now you have heard about OnePlus 6 feat in breaking records after records right?

If you are price-conscious and a smart consumer, OnePlus should come in first when you are in the market hunting for a new smartphone with \"future-proof\" specs that will be light on your pocket.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nImpressive cameras with Optical Image Stabilization.\n\n\n\n\nCAMERAS\n\nIn this visually-stimulating era, the cameras of smartphones are becoming increasingly important and OnePlus 6 does not disappoint in this department either.

Autofocusing is snappy and precise, allowing you to snap all those priceless moments quickly.

YES! With this new case from Royal Holdings, your smartphone can turn into a weapon detector to detect any knife, gun and even bomb which could threaten your very survival and those around you. Sounds incredulous? Not anymore.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Sword phone case which can detect weapons.\n\n\n\nIronically this weapon-detecting smartphone case is called \"Sword\". Sword is a 5-ounce smartphone case that can work like a 3D scanner for your detect any possible presence of weapons. The 18 programmable radio frequency (RF) antennas found in the case can scan bags and people to make sure that there are no hidden weapons. Should any possible weapon is concealed, the Sword App will immediately tell you what it is by running a compatibility matching scan using its weapon's signature database that the company has.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Scanning for any possible threat.\n\n\n\n\n\nOne weapon identified...even if it is hidden in the bag.\n\n\n\nSword which is FCC approved, uses radio waves which is completely harmless to our body. The weapon-detecting case just need a clear line of sight to carry out its duty, scanning people and bags from up to 40 feet away. On top of that, the Sword App can also recognize faces. The facial recognition feature will quickly compares a person's face against an available watch list, and would later alert the authority. Barry Oberholzer who is the co-founder of the company said, \"RF imaging and radio-wave-based technology has been around for many, many years...we just found a different application for it.\" And what an application it will be-one that could save hundreds or thousands of life.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo we do not need to worry about something that we cannot see anymore.\n\n\n\nSo Sword turns out to be like a military-grade phone case huh! Hence I really hope that this Sword phone case can be made more affordable to everyone, especially American students who are at constant risk of being killed or attacked by weapons since firearms such as guns and rifles are literally everywhere over there. Sword was sadly inspired by last year's terrorist attack during Ariana Grande's concert. If someone had had this Sword phone case, they would have been able to detect the suicide vest.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatch how this Sword phone case could save your life.\n\n\n\nIt is obvious that the Sword phone case could possibly help to reduce or even prevent mass shootings at American schools where innocent students are being targeted. However Sword Phone case does have two drawbacks. The first one is the expensive price tag of US$950 if you pre-order now. Once it goes on sale, this weapon-detecting case will have a retail price of US$1250. Such pricing will totally make it unreachable to the masses which is really saddening. The second drawback is the Sword phone case can only support iPhone 8 Plus and Pixel 2XL for the time being.\n\n\n\n\n\nI wish this Sword phone case can be made more affordable.\n\n\n\n\n\n"} {"title": "MIUI 10-The Top 7 New Features For Xiaomi Phones", "body": "\nXiaomi is finally pushing out their much-anticipated MIUI 10 and owners of Redmi 3S, Redmi 5A, Mi 6 and Mi Mix 2S rejoice as you will be one of the first to enjoy this new roll out. Though this time around the update is not particularly groundbreaking, I still believe that Xiaomi's MIUI 10 packs 7 new awesome features and is definitely worth the download especially for Indian Xiaomi fans. Why India? Read on to find out.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1-Potrait Mode For Phones With Only Single Cameras\n\nWith more and more companies introducing dual-camera phones, it appears that smartphone with only single camera will be left in the cold. However that is not the case for Xiaomi. Portrait mode which was previously only exclusive for dual-camera set up, can now be enjoyed by Xiami smartphone which only has one camera to show off. To snap portrait mode photos, the dual camera set up will capture depth information and other details and one of MIUI 10 features is to deliver Software-optimized Portrait Mode for single camera devices. This is really cool and thoughtful of Xiaomi.\n\n\n\n\nPortrait Mode is now available for your Xiaomi Single Camera Phone\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2-Beautiful Recents Menu\n\nBeing a Samsung smartphone user, I can't helped buy be envious with this newly redesigned \"Recents\" menu found in MIUI 10. Why can't we have such beautiful recent screens like Xiaomi? *sigh* Taking advantage of swipe gestures for full-screen smartphones, these new gorgeous Recents Menu were redesigned meticulously with tall screens in mind. With MIUI 10, the new Recents Menu now boast a vertically scrolling list of apps which are running to let you have a quick glance of what is happening in the background. To delete any app, you just need to swipe them while tapping and holding on to any desired app will show you more options. Slick!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbsolute beauty in Recents Menu\n\n\n\n\n3-More \"Close-to-Nature\" Notifications\n\nNobody wants to be overly attached to technology and that is why Xiaomi has turned to Mother Nature for inspirations to deliver more close-to-nature notifications and system sounds. Xiaomi claims that MIUI 10 willbe incorporating water droplet sounds for alerts and notification; what is even more amazing is that consecutive notifications will actually result in different rhythmic\u00a0patterns of droplet sounds.\u00a0Kudos to Xiaomi bringing us back to Nature.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNature-inspired notifications for you.\n\n\n\n\n4-A Timer for Relaxation\n\nAs an expansion to its \"Close-to-Nature\" move, Xiaomi has also thrown in a very notable feature that is worth mentioning-A Timer For Relaxation. With this new MIUI 10, you can run a count-down timer which will play soothing nature-themed sounds for you to relax and unwind. This addition is really a genius stroke and truly reminds of the highly relaxing\u00a0white noise. So if you are feeling stressed, just run this timer to let loose.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nListen to the sound of rain to help you destress with MIUI 10.\n\n\n\n\n5-New Sliders For Sounds & Brightness\n\nWith these redesigns in MIUI 10, now your volume and brightness sliders will look 10 times cooler than the other phones. Instead of showing the volume overlay on the top of the screen, tapping the volume rockers will now show you the volume slider on the right side of the screen which is close to the buttons. Here comes the awesome part: sliding your finger anywhere on the sliders allows you to alter the brightness or volume. In other words you are not forced to tap on the screen precisely to make any adjustment. A very welcome change indeed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNow you have better volume and brightness control.\n\n\n\n\n6-More Responsive OS\n\nGoogle has done everything in its might to continuously develop and refine Android OS so that it is snappy and fluid to be used. Being very closely related to iOS, Xiaomi has also bucked up its MIUI 10 to make it more responsive. According to Xiaomi, MIUI 10 has incorporated 2 new features to speed things up: (1) Lock-free Critical Path and (2) Co-dependent Prioritizing. It is claimed that these 2 new additions will speed up your Xiaomi phone by 10 per cent in terms of processing speeds.

It has a reported 25-day standby time which I believe is huge for this phone to be a secondary device. Measuring 133.45x47.30x14.90. this Banana Phone tips the scale at 117 grams. It runs on Smart Feature OS based on KaiOS and allow users to have access to apps such as Google Maps, Google Assistant, Google Search and heck Nokia even throw in a Snake Game for your enjoyment as well.\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can choose either the Black or Yellow banana. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNokia 8110 4G supports 4G VoLTE with hotspot functionality and is based on slider form factor which gives its slightly curved banana shape.

In fact I reckon that Galaxy Note 4 will still be better than the yet to be released Galaxy Note 5. Rumours have it that the SD card support and removable battery will be absent in the upcoming Galaxy Note 5, which if they are true would be a grave mistake by Samsung.

However, Samsung has decided to keep the back of the phone plastic so that it is removable. In other words you can still change your battery once the juice has been drained.

That means you can play any game you throw at it let alone games like Win On Slots, Chess Rivals and Solitaire Champ. More importantly Note 4 comes with a gargantuan 32GB of internal storage which can be expanded with another enormous 128GB of SD card! This is what I call storage support!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTouchWiz is lighter and more efficient.\n\n\nSOFTWARE\nIt is great to know that Samsung has finally realized that they needed \u00a0to shake off all those unnecessary bloatware that most users won't use. Having said so, it is a joy to note that TouchWiz on the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is lighter, friendlier and more efficient compared to its previous incarnations. Samsung has also managed to make its Multi Window feature more powerful allowing Note 4 to handle different tasks simultaneously more flawlessly. Another vast improvement is the One-handed Operation Mode. By \"reducing the screen size\", you can easily shrink the display to smaller screen which makes it possible for you to easily use it with just one hand. Genius!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA better 16MP camera with OIS!\n\n\nCAMERAS\nSamsung Galaxy Note 4's main camera is a 16MP sharpshooter that could do more that what we are expecting. It is the maiden Samsung flagship (except the Zoom series) to come with Optical Image Stabilization which makes photos to be sharper and more focused compared to its predecessors. This is surely a handy feature for those with shaky hands. Flip the Note 4 around and you will be welcomed by a 3.7MP Selfie Camera that offers f/1.9 aperture for better...well Selfies! Rest assured that you will have plenty of modes to toy around with and the two cameras on Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (rear and front) will surely suffice your needs to capture better photos for those wonderful memories of yours. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Mighty S Pen\n\n\nS PEN\nThe S Pen is arguably one of the most recognized features that is synonyms with the Galaxy Note flagships. What is a Note without its S Pen right? The S Pen can not only respond to 2000 different sensitivity in pressure, but also doubles up as a cursor and comes complete with a special action button that provides more additional features. This is one heck of a productivity tool that I truly want to have. In fact this S Pen alone can justify why you should fork out your hard-earned money for a new smartphone. Pull out the S Pen and the \"Air Command\" will pop up showing 4 functions that you could access to-Action Memo, Smart Select, Image Clip and Screen Write; all which I reckon will be useful to power users.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n50% in 30 minutes.\n\n\nFAST CHARGING+REMOVABLE BATTERY\nNow you can charge your Samsung Galaxy Note 4 from zero to 50% in just 30 minutes! Another plus point about Samsung Galaxy Note 4, unlike the new Note 5 is the removable battery! YES! The battery on the Note 4 is removable which means you can easily switch the 3,220mAh battery when you run out of juice. This will certainly free you from the need to be plugged to a power socket and the hassle to lug around a power bank.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you Note?\n\n\nFINAL VERDICT\nArmed with almost all the relatively latest cutting edge technology, I strongly believe that Samsung Galaxy Note 4 will still be the best smartphone to beat this year. The availability of SD card support which is allows you to have another whopping 128GB and the removable battery make Galaxy Note 4 a better smartphone compared to its new replacement-Note 5. Plus, it will be cheaper too once its new sibling is launched. Currently Galaxy Note 4 is still being priced at RM2,199 and I do hope it will drop soon. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI believe the design of Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is more beautiful. :)\n\n"} {"title": "Iron Man Samsung Galaxy Edge S6 (Limited Edition) Unveiled!", "body": "\nLet's paint the town red Iron Man fans! Finally the limited edition of Iron Man Samsung Galaxy Edge S6 has been officially unveiled. It is indeed one heck of a flamboyant smartphone I have to admit, more so when this Iron Man Samsung Galaxy Edge S6 features the iconic red and gold painting scheme that Tony Stark has approved. The titular Iron Man face at the back of this special edition Galaxy Edge S6 makes the whole phone looks a cut above the rest! OMG! It exudes so much class and coolness that I am practically drooling while looking at it.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStunningly beautiful-Iron Man edition of Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge\n\n\n\nThis limited edition Iron Man Samsung Galaxy Edge S6 comes in an equally awesome red box that is very collectible. One you unbox it, you will be greeted by the Iron Man (himself in the flesh metal) and your eyes will definitely pop out when you see the jaw-dropping wireless charging pad that looks exactly the same like Tony Stark's arc reactor! OMG! Best of all, this Iron Man edition of Samsung Galaxy Edge is preloaded with a custom Avengers theme that will surely make the phone look and feel more SUPER! Watch the following official unboxing video of it:\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnboxed! Look at the wireless charging pad! OMG!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's like a dream come true for all Iron Man fans with the release of this uber cool Iron Man smarpthone...now here comes the BAD NEWS! Apparently, for the time being...Samsung will only be selling this Iron Man Galaxy Edge S6 at 3 countries-South Korea, China and Hong Kong. So no Iron Man-themed Galaxy Edge S6 at other countries? Why o why? So it is a very limited edition after all huh Tony Stark? T_T Guess fans from other countries could only be using the normal Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. *sob*\n"} {"title": "Samsung Galaxy S6-The Most Beautiful Android Smartphone", "body": "\nFinally this is the flagship smartphone that all Samsung fans and Android lovers have been waiting for. Introducing the silky new Samsung Galaxy S6. So gone are the days when Samsung was criticized for being too plasticky! This new Sam\u00a0The all new metallic and glass Samsung Galaxy S6 feels and looks really premium compared to all the other Galaxy predecessors. It's clear that Galaxy S6 has shaken off a lot of the DNA of its older brother and this is something that Samsung should have done earlier. However it is better to be late than never right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbsolute beauty!\n\n\n\nDESIGN & FINGERPRINT SCANNER\n\nIntricately crafted with matte aluminium alloy frame and Gorilla Glass 4 on the front and back, Galaxy S6 is no doubt one of the most beautiful smartphone ever created by Samsung! Galaxy S6 possesses Samsung's usual pill shape, with rounded tops and bottoms and straighter sides. You can find the power button and nano-SIM card slot sit on the right side. A micro-USB charging port and headset jack live on the bottom, and the left side houses a separate up-and-down volume rockers. Samsung has also improved its fingerprint scanner with a 360 degrees one touch method which allows you to unlock your Galaxy S6 by tapping your finger in any direction. And yeah~the fingerprint scanner is Paypal certified. Cool aye?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStunningly vivid display!\n\n\nSCREEN\n\nSamsung Galaxy S6 sports a beautiful QHD (2560x1440) Super AMOLED screen that stretches across 5.1 inches to give you an amazing pixel density of 577ppi. Galaxy S6' Super AMOLED gives you flawless contrast and unbelievable deep black that will allow you to easily read your text messages no matter where you are. Be ready to be served with vividly 'real' RGB colours that will feast your eyes with beautiful life-like images and videos. And with Corning Gorilla Glass 4 to protect you screen of Galaxy S6, it is virtually tempered-proof!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe back glass panel exudes so much class and luxury!\n\n\n\n\nSOFTWARE\n\nApart from the seamless metal and glass build, Samsung Galaxy S6 has also improved its software department significantly. The Galaxy S6 runs Android 5.0 Lollipop and has the latest version of Samsung's TouchWiz which which is not leaner and cleaner. This translates to better and smoother user experience.\u00a0So no more annoying bloatwares that slow downs your Samsung smartphone. Interestingly, Samsung S6 will also allow you to change the theme of its layout. So Samsung is really going out full cylinders with S6!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNow you will never miss any moment...or selfies...\n\n\n\n\nCAMERA\n\nGalaxy S6 sports the same 16-megapixel camera that we see on its big brother-Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and it comes with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) that will definitely help those with trembling hands. Flip the phone and you will be greeted by a 5-megapixel shooter for all your wide-angle selfies with low-light capabilities. With a launch time of just 0.7 second, OIS, fast tracking auto focus and a bigger f1.9 aperture for better low light shots, you can now shoot photos like a professional with Samsung Galaxy S6! So who still needs a DSLR? LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHARDWARE\n\nUnder the unibody glass and metal chasis, is the world's first 14nm mobile processor-Samsung's very own in-house 64-bit Octa-Core Exynos 7420 \u00a0processor. This finer 14nm architecture allowed better performance and power efficiency. Samsung Galaxy S6 will be boosted by a lightning fast 3GB of LPDDR4 RAM, so there will be no more hiccups. As for on-board storage, Samsung has opted for a quicker UFS 2.0 Flash Memory which is claimed to be 30% faster than the usual eMMC 5.0 Flash that is being deployed for other high-end smartphones. Due to the absence of MircoSD slot, all Samsung Galaxy S6 will come with \"meatier\" storage of 32GB, 64GB and 128GB capacity.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeamless charging.\n\n\nBATTERY & SMARTER WIRELESS CHARGING\n\nSamsung's new design philosophy also means that a removable battery has to be sacrificed here. Having said so, the batter in Galaxy S6 is also smaller with 2,550mAh of juice. However, Samsung claims that its processor, RAM and storage have been optimized for efficient battery consumption. Likewise, you should not worry about battery as Galaxy S6 can be charged rather quickly with Adaptive Fast Charging which can power up the S6 from 0% to 50% in 30 minutes. And Samsung has also claimed that a quick 10 minutes charge can allow you to watch 2 hours of HD video. Wow! :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is really the new Galaxy. :)\n\n\n\n\nCONCLUSION\n\nShould you get Samsung Galaxy S6? Well...if you have a thick wallet (it is pricey), why not? After all it is by far the best performing and best-looking Android smartphone you will see this year. Available in 4 different colours: Black, White, Gold and Blue, Samsung Galaxy S6 will surely turn heads with its ultra-premium, refined design. Apart from the almost redundant omission of microSD card slot and waterproofing capability, Samsung Galaxy S6 is the best-looking and performing smartphone that we have seen so far! So are you ready to pay RM2,599 when it lands in Malaysia?\n\n\n\n\n\nAww...this blue Samsung Galaxy S6 looks really surreal. :)\n\n\n\n"} {"title": "Samsung Galaxy S6, S6 Edge To Be Released On 1st of March-Do-or-Die For Samsung", "body": "\nAre you guys ready for the so-called next big thing? Yes, tomorrow 1st of March 2015 marks the day we will be seeing the release of new flagship Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge. Not only are the fans of Samsung will be salivating for this release of flagship Galaxy smartphones, the people from Samsung themselves are waiting anxiously with trepidation, hoping that this Galaxy S6 and the S6 Edge will break Samsung's free fall from grace. In fact, Samsung will be freezing salaries of employees in South Korea because of their ailing smartphones sales. That's how bad it is huh!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready for Samsung S6 and S6 Edge?\n\n\n\nOn one court, Samsung fans will be hoping to FINALLY get the GALAXY Smartphone that they have been yearning for the past 5 years. One that is actually made of premium materials like the ones their privileged rivals are enjoying-think Apple and Xiaomi. So this Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge must come with metal finish that will ooze with a lot of quality and class. Secondly...Samsung fans will also be hoping that Samsung will finally get rid of all those unnecessary bloatwares that are causing them to shun the Galaxy smartphones in the past. Can these 2 minimum requirement be met tomorrow? Samsung don't seem to have a choice right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre these the alleged Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge?\n\n\n\n\nLikewise...if Samsung don't get all their acts right this time...they might not have another chance to reclaim any grounds that they have lost to Apple and other Android rivals who are breathing down Samsung's neck. If Samsung do not halt thing plunge that they are in...they might turn into another Nokia...So Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge must be the dream smartphone that everyone wants...one that bespoke excellent craftsmanship and is super-user friendly without any lag or whatsoever that will frustrate users. To sweeten the deal...it will be wise (but most probably impossible) if Samsung is willing to retail their latest Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge more competitively by slashing their price tags.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSix Appeal of Galaxy S6?\n\n\n\n\nHence it is a do-or-die mission for Samsung and they really cannot afford to screw this up! So they really have to get their built (super premium) right, provide cutting-edge innards and feather-weight software to win customers back. I have always been a big fan of Samsung and I, of course, hope that both these Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge will be the cornerstones that revive Samsung and make it one of the most desirable smartphones in the world again. So besides the features that I have mentioned above, is there anything else that you want to see Samsung improves in their latest flagships? Do let me know. Over to you now. :)\n"} {"title": "Samsung Gear S-In Its Own League", "body": "\nSamsung is arguably the most productive smartwatch maker recently with the release of Samsung Gear S. Though I won't dare to say that it is the best smartwatch out there, Samsung Gear S is certainly one of the best in its very own league and so far only Pebble seems to have the pedigree to lay its hands on the throne. First thing first, Gear S is certainly the leader in the forefront since it can work without a smartphone. Yupe~this smartwatch can fly own its own-solo!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can select stunning, beautiful \"faces\" for your Gear S.\n\n\n\nWell...you don't spend a few hundred bucks on a watch to replace your smartphone. Of course most of the time you would be pairing your Gear S with your smartphone via Bluetooth right? Interestingly Gear S comes with a brilliant trick up its sleeve. It can be paired via Internet as well. That means if you are jogging like 10km away from your smartphone you can still receive and reply messages and make calls using your very own number (via the available wifi connection or data sim) so you do not need another new sim number.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA very usable beauty.\n\n\n\n\nTo some critics, Gear S looks like a gigantic smartphone clinging on to your little wrist...but IMHO it is one gorgeous smartwatch. Aesthetically I find Gear S to be very futuristic and uber cool. Its super beautiful curved 2-inch 300PPI AMOLED screen certainly is the star attraction here. Having such a huge screen means that you have more space to do more things and that also means that you can interact with your Gear S more meaningfully like being able to type a message? With such huge screen, you can view your notifications easier. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAn excellent communicator.\n\n\n\nAnother amazing feature of Gear S is that it is equipped with its very own GPS and it is preinstalled with Nokia Here App which gives you real-time, turn-by-turn directions. It can also vibrate to tell you when you have to make that turn. Best of all you can use it independently with the presence of your bigger smartphone. Not bad at all right? It does look like Samsung is toying with the idea of developing a full-fledged smartphone that will stick on your wrist huh!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYour very own personal assistant.\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Gear S is also a very nifty personal fitness monitor. Taking advantage of its integrated GPS and the multiple sensors at its disposal, it can track your steps-pedometer, and it can even help you to log your individual workouts with its awesome S Health features. You can also use the heart monitor to see how healthy (or sick) you are. Ha :D Another interesting feature is the \"inactive time\" alert which nudges you when you have been sitting too long. Great for those who work in office and face their computer screen for long hours.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe App library for Gear is only OK so far.\n\n\n\n\nGear S is really one of the best smartwatches available right now. However it does have its own flaws...3 I would say. First, its app ecosystem is still in its infancy, meaning you won't able to fully maximize your Gear S; Secondly its battery life is way too short to be able to replace your watch. Imagine that you need to charge your smartwatch almost every single day...that is making it not that smart anymore right? Lastly, Samsung has made Gear S way too \"exclusive\" by only allowing it to work with Samsung Galaxy smartphone that is running Android 4.3 or higher.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIMHO, despite its flaws, Gear S is really one fascinating smartwatch that I would want to have if I can afford. It is still a luxury. However the idea of glancing at your notifications on your wrist rather than pulling our your gigantic smartphone from your tight pocket or bags make Samsung Galaxy Gear S one really, really desirable smartwatch for me. :) So are you willing to invest RM1,000 in a watch?\n"} {"title": "Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Comes With 3-sided Display?", "body": "\nAfter Samsung Galaxy S5 has flopped, many people (like me) are waiting for a real flagship from big Sammy. Samsung has earlier launched its very first metal smartphone-Galaxy Alpha, to stop its declining market share. However Samsung knows that it will need more than that to reclaim its throne. That is why Samsung is firing full cylinders with its latest launch of Galaxy Note 4. It's like a make or break moment for Big Sammy.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is what Samsung Galaxy Note 4 will look like?\n\n\n\nSamsung will be unleashing its popular phablet-Galaxy Note 4 on the 3rd of September, by asking us to \"Note the date for an Unpacked event\". The rumours mills have been going full throttle about Note 4 with its 3-sided display, which slopes on the left and right sides to allow unique functionality.\u00a0Too far-fetched? Not really. It does sound very doable and very logical as Big Sammy really needs something new and out-of-the-box to ensure that it will be the Alpha of the packs!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHmm...looks very interesting.\n\n\n\n\nSamsung has recently launched 2 promo videos for Samsung Galaxy Note 4 in China, but it doesn't reveal the new expected Note 4. Instead the the 2 short videos played up last year's Note 3. The short video focuses on a young Chinese family. The husband and wife was involved in a fight and the she stormed out of the house. The husband then uses his Note 3, and a little help from their son, to win back his wife. The last scene shows the family sitting around the dinner table with the words \u201cGalaxy Note 4\u2033 right in front of them. Hmm...makes me really wonder what Note 4 will really look like.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccording to the latest rumors, Galaxy Note 4 is expected to pack a Quad HD display, a Snapdragon 805 processor, a 16-megapixel camera, 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage with microSD support. Galaxy Note 4 is also likely to introduce at least one crazy new feature like an ultrasound S Pen or a built-in eye-scanner. I believe the former is more likely to be featured this time around. I hope it will surprise us this time and will not be a let down like S5. Can't wait for Note 4 to come on the 3rd of September. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSamsung wants to win our hearts...\n\n"} {"title": "Samsung Galaxy Alpha-The New Metal Revolution", "body": "\nSamsung has officially unleashed the long-awaited Galaxy Alpha. Samsung fans and investors will be happy to know that Sammy is finally heeding advice to create something that everybody (almost) would want. With the release of Galaxy Alpha, Samsung's smartphone now comes infused with that \"premium feel\" that the masses have been yearning for-the METAL frame going round the edges of the Alpha! What took Samsung so long to respond to this demand huh?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe new Galaxy Alpha\n\n\n\nNow Galaxy Alpha feels really more solid with the new element infused into it. However the back of Galaxy Alpha is till made of plastic and its innards is somehow similar to Galaxy S5. This is somehow a bit disheartening. Why can't the back have the luxury or a metal cover? Perhaps to keep the cost down. With Alpha, you will get a gorgeous 4.7inch HD display, an impressive octa-core Exynos processor, 2GB of RAM, 32 GB of internal storage (which is non-expandable), a 12MP rear camera, LTE and 1860 camera. So far...Alpha seems to boast relatively impressive specs, to say the least.\n\n\n\n\n\nA beautiful new Galaxy.

However the downside of the new Alpha is the lacking of a microSD expansion slot which can be a deal-breaker for some. Tipping the scale at a featherweight 115grams, Galaxy Alpha is certainly a looker with a thickness of only 6.7 milimeters.\u00a0I am sure a lot of people would welcome this new \"lightness\" in Galaxy Alpha. Perhaps that is why a bigger battery and a microSD slot have been sacrificed here. Somehow Galaxy Alpha resembles Samsung Galaxy S2 a lot don't you think so?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDimensions: 132.4 x 65.5 x 6.7 mm, 115g\nDisplay: 4.7\u201d HD Super AMOLED (1280 x 720)\nProcessor: Exynos 5430 Octa Core (Quad 1.8GHz + Quad 1.3GHz)\nRAM: 2GB\nStorage: 32GB, non-expandable\nCamera: 12MP (rear) + 2.1MP (front)\nBattery: 1860 mAh\nConnectivity: WiFi: 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, MIMO(2\u00d72), Bluetooth 4.0 BLE / ANT+, USB: USB 2.0, NFC, LTE: LTE Cat.6 (300/50Mbps), nano-SIM card\nFingerprint sensor: Yes\nHear rate sensor: Yes\nWaterproofing: No\nAndroid 4.4.4\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy Alpha~Just Alpha\n\n\nThe Samsung Galaxy Alpha will be launched in September, together with Galaxy Note 4. It will soon be available in 150 countries. Obviously Samsung wants to release Galaxy Alpha to compete head-to-head with Apple's new iPhone 6. Alpha will come in 5 different colours at launch: Dazzling White, Charcoal Black, Frosted Gold, Scuba Blue and Sleek Silver. However, fans who hope that Alpha will be priced competitively will be disappointed as it has a top-of-the-scale price tag of US$800 (RM2,400).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nP.S.: I really think that Samsung should try to make the price tag a bit more \"affordable\" if it wishes to the Alpha in its pack.\n\n\n"} {"title": "LG G Watch With Google Wear", "body": "\nThe hottest \"real estates\" that companies are after right now is not our pockets anymore. All tech companies are now gunning to win our wrist right now. The market for smartphones have neared saturation and it is only plausible to move on to the next \"goldmine\". Samsung has released their own smartwatch with lukewarm response. Motorola then announced a promising Moto 360 which runs on Android Wear. Now LG has stepped into the smartwatch arena with the advent of LG G Watch! So let's see if LG G Watch is worthy to be worn by us.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold: \u00a0LG G Watch\n\n\n\nUnlike (the earlier) Samsung, Pebble and Sony, LG G Watch makes its first walk on runway by leveraging Google Android Wear OS. Being developed by Big G, Android Wear will easily allow LG G Watch to appeal to all the other Android smartphone owners via Bluetooth (as long as you have Android 4.3 Jelly Bean or later). I won't say that the design is good. In fact it looks kind of too squarish for certain people and definitely bulky for those who are petite.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlways-on display allows you to see everything at a glance.\n\n\n\n\nHowever being big is a good thing because you'll be getting a huge display. You can easily read your emails and notifications on your the 1.65-inch screen of LG G Watch. Of course it will be a bit too small for you to view photos or web pages. You can of course adjust the display to show you the time, whether to have a digital face or analogue format-clock face. Moving on-it comes with a rubber strap which actually kinda downgrades its overall premium appeal. Fortunately it is equipped with standard 22mm spring pins so you can change to any style of straps that you like.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWater and dust proof to suit your active lifestyle!\n\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, LG G Watch is powered by 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 and backed by 512MB of RAM which should be more adequate for your every day needs. There is also 4GB of storage for possible apps installation. LG G Watch is powered by 400mAh battery which might not be sufficient enough for heavy users but should last average users a couple of days. It comes with IP67 water and dustproofing. However to charge LG G Watch, the magnetic plate needs to be clipped onto the charging pins on the back (there are no exposed ports and no buttons on the G Watch) and connects to the mains via a standard micro USB connection.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLast but not leas, saying 'OK Google' \u00a0will get you into voice control mode and you can receive push notifications with Google Now-style cards to tell you about news, weather, emails or Facebook updates which I think is really cool. And the always-on display should make viewing of time and notifications a breeze. LG seems to be pushing very hard to get ahead of the competition with G Watch. So do you think this is the smartwatch for you? LG G Watch retails at US$229 and will start shipping on the 27th of July 2014.\n"} {"title": "10 Things You Didn't Know Your Smartphone Could Do", "body": "\nNow with your smartphone you can do everything! Millions of apps are already available for you to choose which can do amazing things making your life easier and more fun. There are many of them which you are already familiar with but also some other apps that maybe you don't even know they exist. Here you will find many interesting things you didn't know your smartphone could do. Most of these Android applications are available both for Android phones and iPhones.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1. Scanner\n\nThings are so much easier when you have a virtual scanner always with you. Now with using only your smartphone you can scan almost everything you want. Start scanning your check to be deposited, a barcode in the store to see the price, keep track of your tax receipts or a business card at work. For doing this there are so many apps you can directly download from your smartphone. These apps are for specific activities so first make sure to know what do you need to scan and then download the relevant app for that.\n\n\n\nApplications: TurboScan; ScannerPro; Genius Scan; CamScanner Free; Prizmo; WorldCard\n\n\n\n\n\n2. Universal Remote Control\n\nWith so many electronic devices we have at home it is complicated keeping track of each one of them and all the remotes that control them. To solve all this confusion people started using the Universal Remote. That was the best solution until now! You can use your smartphone as a Universal Remote just by adding a simple infrared device to your smartphone and downloading the relevant application. Now don't be surprised if you come home and see your Dad or Mom pointing their smartphones to some electronic device.\n\n\n\nApplications: Griffin Beacon; iRule; RedEye; Zmart; Power A.\n\n\n\n\n\n3. Car Remote\n\nYou can use your smartphone not only as a Universal Remote but, even as a car remote. Forget your keys because now you don't need them for starting your car! For this you would need first to buy a hardware from Viper which is compatible with most vehicles. After downloading that app, later you can start your car, lock and unlock the doors, set the panic alarm etc. Now you can leave your keys at home, but before that make sure your smartphone is fully charged!\n\n\n\nApplications: Viper SmartStart; SmartStart; Zipcar\n\n\n\n\n\n4. Smart measures\n\nYou can measure almost everything starting from your heart rate, number of steps, hours of sleep and more than that: recording your snore! If your mom, flatmate, husband or wife snores but they don't accept the fact, the Night Recorder will give you the proofs you want.\n\n\n\nUsing your smartphone you can even track your sleeping habits and hours. Are you thinking you don't have enough sleep? Do you sleep too much? It is your phone now telling you how many hours did/should you sleep. Another app will keep track of all the steps you take during the day and how active you are. You can later generate these reports and feedback on your activity levels. Your smartphone is now your personal adviser helping you track everything and stay healthy.\n\n\n\nUsing your smartphone camera monitor you can count your beats per minute (BPM). We don't know how accurate this app is, but it is really cool. You can measure your heartbeat while thinking about your soulmate and share it with him/her on social networks.\n\n\n\nApplications: Instant Heart Rate; SleepBot; FitBit One; SnoreClock\n\n\n\n\n\n5. Identify\n\nWith your smartphone things are easier to be identified. If you are traveling somewhere and you see a picture in a museum, a place, an object or anything interesting you can just scan it using apps such as Google Goggles and then this app will take care of searching in Google and giving you more details about that. You can also use this app to translate text from one language to another making it much more useful. There are also other apps which are able to identify the song you are listening to. If you really like a song but you don't know or remember the title of that song, you can just record a small part of it, and let the app do the rest.\n\n\n\nApplications: Google Goggles; Shazam; Soundhound; musiXmatch\n\n\n\n\n\n6. Track your kids\n\nLet's accept it! No one wants to be tracked and kept under surveillance. But this app is very useful for parents and family members specially in such places where going around is not safe. This app gives peace specially to parents and give them comfort as they know where they kids are, or if they arrived safely in their destination. This app is also very good and important to track your phone in case you lost it or it was stolen.\n\n\n\nApplications: Find My iPhone; Verizon Family Locator; Where's My Droid; Cerberus\n\n\n\n\n\n7. Stop phone calls\n\nThis app is for avoiding embarrassing phone calls. Did you ever think on calling your ex-boyfriend or your boss telling him what you really think of him? Well, thinking is fine, unless you are drunk and you really do it. If you don't want to lose your job, you better install an app in your smartphone that lock you out of your phone contacts or just some of them. You can unlock the contacts only if you pass a sobriety test.\n\n\n\nApplications: Designated Dialer; Smart AppLock\n\n\n\n\n\n8. Mail a postcard\n\nWhat if you are on holiday and you want to send pictures to your family as a postcard? Now this can be done only with smartphone and without the need to go anywhere to send it. With only an app you just take a snapshot and transform into a genuine paper postcard that will be mailed to the recipient you want. It is also possible to add a message there. The sending will be realized via U.S postal service and even though the app itself is free, you need to pay for the mailing depending on the destination.\n\n\n\nApplications: Postcard on the Run; shoot it!; Postcard Star; Postino\n\n\n\n\n\n9. Use as Mouse and Keyboard\n\nNow you can even use your smartphone as a mouse and keyboard. The app lets you control your computer by only using your smartphone as a remote mouse and keyboard. To make it work you don't only need to download the application but also to install a special client software on your computer. You can just wave your smartphone in the air and see how the mouse pointer moves in the screen of your computer.\n\n\n\nApplications: Mobile Mouse Pro; AndroMouse\n\n\n\n\n\n10. Detect Speed Traps\n\nDo you need an assistant while you are driving? You don't need any extra equipment but only using your smartphone you can save yourself from the speeding tickets. This app is really interesting because it relies on information gathered from millions of people using this app. Using this massive database you will get mobile alerts about upcoming speed traps, hidden cameras or any other signals. You can check the map continuously and drive according to that.\n\n\n\nApplications: Trapster\n\n\n\nSources\n\n\u00b7 PricePanda Malaysia\n\n\u00b7 Apple App Store\u00a0\n\n\u00b7 Google Play\n\n\n"} {"title": "Moto 360-The Best Smartwatch Yet?", "body": "\nWith the announcement of Android Wear by Google, consumers will be expecting more smartwatches to be paraded this year. In fact Motorola has fired the first salvo with the release of Moto 360. I must say that I immediately fell in love with Moto 360 the moment I lay my eyes on it. Moto 360 is by far the best-looking smartwatch yet! It looks exactly like a conventional timepiece, with the usual round watchface and even a mechanical dial on the right.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold: The elegant Moto 360!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOMG~This is THE WATCH for me!\n\n\n\nI am really surprised with the timeless design of Moto 360 and this is what Motorola has got to say about their latest invention-\"We want to reimagine the wristwatch for the future and continue with the basic wristwatch design that has endured for a century because of its elegance and usefulness at a glance.\" I totally agree with their philosophy. Why design something that looks like a Ben 10 Omnimtrix? (think Samsung Gear?) Moto 360 will change the Smartwatch game alright.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDespite not divulging any technical details of Moto 360, Motorola does hint that their very first Smartwatch can be awakened with a simple flick to the rest. It appears that Moto 360 will be deeply integrated with Google Now whereby wearer can simply say, \"Ok Google\" and ask questions like who won the Classico Game? What time do you have a meeting? Send a text message? Or you can simply use it to set an alarm or even take note on the go without taking out your smartphone.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's time for Moto 360!\n\n\n\n\nMoto 360 will be hitting our shelves this summer and consumers in US will get the privilege of wearing it first. What's more? Moto 360 will be available in a variety of style and I guess that we might be able to customize it just like Moto X?

I am sure most parents are worried about your kids as well right? Introducing Filip smarthwatch for our children. For the uninitiated Filip is actually a smartwatch and a \"locater\" for parents who wanna know about their children's whereabouts all the time-SAFETY! Since it is also a hybrid between and smartwatch and a phone, parents don't need to get their little ones cell phones. Brilliant!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFilip-The smartwatch for our children.\n\n\n\nThe recent brutal murder of three sisters has certainly shocked all Malaysians! Imagine the agony that the victims' parents would have to suffer...losing all 3 of their children. It is really a heart-wrenching moment for their family. I cannot imagine something so excruciating to happen to my beloved 2 babies. A moment of negligence is all it takes to kill our happiness! Prevention is better than cure! Unfortunately...certain \"problems\" cannot be cured. *sigh* That is why we parents must stay vigilant and always KEEP AN EYE on our children even if they think we are a pest! That is why I think Filip is really a good gadget for parents to keep tab of their little ones.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFilip comes in 4 different vibrant colour for our little ones.\n\n\n\n\n\nFilip is designed with our children in mind.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFilip helps we parents to easily call and keep track of their location. In other words, Filip is a smartwatch that not only allows you to call but to pin point your child's location as well. Parents can set up to 5 numbers into the Filip smartwatch for kids to call with a touch of a button. By using the Filip app, parents can easily track their child's location, make calls, send texts and even set \"SafeZones\". Filip will send a notification to parents whenever our child leaves or arrives at a SafeZone such as school, tuition centre or home.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur kids can easily call us with Filip.\n\n\n\n\n\nWe can easily call our kids and locate them as well.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe can set \"SafeZones\" for our children.\n\n\n\nSend text messages to tell notify our children.\n\n\n\n\nThere are 2 buttons found on a Filip smartwatch. One is a bright red in colour for our child to hold down to prompt the watch to call the first person in the contact list (5). If no one answers, the watch will call the other four assigned contacts. Then a notification with the child's location will be sent to the first contact. So this Filip smartwatch can be used as a phone to call parents to pick up our children right? Yupe~so we do not need to buy those unnecessary smartphones for our little ones.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFilip Smartwatch can keep our children safe.\n\n\n\n\nEach Filip watch will cost you US$199.99 with an AT&T plan whereby parents can pay a monthly US$10 for unlimited \u00a0location data and voice calling.

Filip is really a must-have for our child's safety.\n\n\n\n\n\nI wanna get Filip Smartwatches for both my babies when they grow up! :D\n\n"} {"title": "Samsung Galaxy Note 3-The Best Smartphone In 2013", "body": "\nSamsung has once again proved that it could stay ahead of its rivals with the release of its latest flagship phablet-Samsung Galaxy Note 3. It is not easy to remain at the top of your game when others are breathing down your neck going for your jugular. It is this very intense competition that has spurred Samsung to create the best Android smartphone for 2013-Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Previously I had written about LG G2 which was better compared to Samsung Galaxy S4. However nothing can be compared to Note 3, \"note\" even iPhone 5S nor Sony Xperia Z Ultra.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDesign your life with Samsung Galaxy Note 3\n\n\n\n\nContinuing on the success of its predecessor-Samsung Galaxy Note 2, the new Note 3 floored the gas right of the bat. Knowing that it has little margin for error or complacency, Samsung ensure that their latest flagship phablet is fully loaded with all the ammunition that can help it beat off rivals for at least months to come. Measuring at 5.95 inches (151.2mm) tall, 3.1 inches (79.2mm) wide and 0.3 inch (8.3 mm) deep, Samsung Galaxy Note 3's footprint has remained largely unchanged despite the larger display (5.7 inches, up from 5.5). In fact, it's now slimmer and narrower, and only 0.1mm longer. It is even lighter as well, dropping from 6.35 oz. (180g) to 5.93 (168g).\n\n\n\nDESIGN\n\nOne of the most notable change about the design of Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has got to be its new \"faux leather\" back. This textured \"leather like\" back, complete with \"faux stitching\" gives Samsung Galaxy Note 3 a more premium feel to it. A welcome upgrade from its usual flimsy plastic cover. Besides adding a touch of class, the \"faux leather\" actually gives better grip for users to handle it. Soft and rubbery to the touch, you will spare your Note 3 from accidental gravity-influenced screen wipeout.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLuxurious faux leather finish.\n\n\n\n\nDISPLAY\n\nYou will be amazed once you lay your eyes on the huge, gorgeous 5.7inch full HD Super AMOLED display. Just like its little brother-Galaxy S4, Note 3 uses the same PenTile \u2018diamond\u2019 display, where the sub-pixels are arranged into a diamond shape. At 396ppi, the screen offers a marked improvement over its predecessors. Colors are vivid and vibrant and those equally important blacks are nice and dark as you'd hope. Flicking the display setting to \"Professional Photo\", you will be feasting your eyes on unbelievable realistic colours.\n\n\n\nCAMERA\n\nBumping up from 8Megapixel in Note 2, the new zero shutter lag 13Megapixel rear camera of Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is really an impressive snapper. The main camera on Note 3 produces bright, vivid photos which are well-saturated and great in contrast. As a standard, Galaxy Note 3 comes with full Auto mode. Compared to Galaxy S4, Night mode has been offloaded, leaving only \"Smart Stabilization,\" for low-light situations which is more or less similar to the Galaxy S4's auto night-detection option. All of the other camera modes from before are present, such as Best Face, Eraser, Sound and Shot plus two more new ones-Golf and Surround Shot.\n\n\n\nFlip the phone and you will be greeted by the 2Megapixel front-facing camera which is sufficient for some selfies and video-calling. Onboard of Samsung Galaxy Note 3, you will also have the popular Dual Camera mode at your disposal. Yupe~you can have fun toying with the Dual Shot, Dual Recording and even Dual Video Call. Note 3 doesn't disappoint in video capture department as well. There\u2019s refocusing during video recording, 1080p video capture, software image stabilisation for both slow motion and fast motion capture.\n\n\n\nS PEN STYLUS\n\nOne of the main selling point of Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has gotta be the S Pen Stylus. Once the mighty \"pen\" is slid out, you will be pleasantly surprised to discover how intuitive it is to use the S Pen just like any other pen that you use to scribble and doodle. The newly designed S Pen's variable pressure rubber tip offers plenty of friction and resistance that can almost replicate our natural handwriting. The best part about Galaxy Note 3 and the S Pen stylus is that it can accurately convert all your handwriting into messages or notes. So you don't need the keyboard anymore!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Air Command menu wheel will be brought up when you hover the S Pen over the screen and click its button. You will be greeted by 5 different Air Commands: Air Memo, Pen Window, S Finder, Screen Write and Scrapbook. Each has its very own flashy tricks and some maybe a bit weird, to say the least.\n\n\n\nAction Memo:\u00a0You\u2019ll get a Post-It-sized overlay for you to make quick notes. If you write say, a phone number, an email, someone's address and a URL, you can then select it and carry out the relevant action for each. If you have jotted down a phone number, you can either save it to contacts or call it directly.\n\n\n\nPen Window: With Pen Window you can draw out a box, choose from a list of compatible apps, and voila you have just drawn yourself a fully interactive widget. Honestly it is more like a show pony, because it\u2019s a lot quicker to just fire up the app that you need. Then again who knows/\n\n\n\nS Finder: Write something and it will run a universal search that sifts through everything on your Galaxy Note 3, and that includes your handwritten notes and doodles. I believe this is a really useful feature.\n\n\n\nScreen Write: Allows you to snap a screen shot that you can make annotations on. A brilliant feature for taking a more detailed notes and bookmarks.\n\n\n\nScrapbook: You can select parts of the screen that are relevant before defacing them with doodles, handwriting or whatever that you can do with your S Pen...more or less like a well...Scrapbook.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPERFORMANCE\n\nBeing Samsung's most important flagship smartphone, you can bet that Note 3 is brimming with all the bells and whistles especially when it comes to the hardward department.\u00a0In fact Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is no doubt the most powerful smartphone in 2013 that you can buy.\u00a0Under the hood, there is the omnipotent Snapdragon 800 quad-core chip which clocks in at a cool 2.3GHz, and with an amazing 3GB of RAM to play with (and the Note's family name to uphold) you can expect Galaxy Note 3 to do wonders with just about everything that you throw at it.\n\n\n\nDespite being heavily skinned with TouchWiz, you will not experience any stuttering, slowdown or whatsoever lag even if you are running dozens of apps and demanding games SIMULTANEOUSLY. Yes! Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is really a multitasking powerhouse and it can handle every single task that you assign to it. It goes to show how important the 3GB of RAM that Galaxy Note 3 has to marshal all the processes in it butterly smooth.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTHE GIST:SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 3-SPECIFICATIONS\n\nDimensions5.95 x 3.12 x 0.33 inches (151.2 x 79.2 x 8.3mm)\nWeight5.92 oz.

Running on Android Jelly Bean 4.3, you can expect to enjoy all the goodies from Android plus the extras that TouchWiz is providing. With its monstrous capabilities (thanks to the processor and 3GB of RAM), you can expect this Samsung Galaxy Note 3 to be relatively future proof. So who wants this Samsung Galaxy Note 3? *hands up* I want! I want! Hopefully Santa can grant me this wish this year. LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI want Samsung Galaxy Note 3 for Christmas!\n\n"} {"title": "LG G2-Top Android Superphone 2013", "body": "\nIt appears that LG would be obliterated by its main homeland rival-Samsung, who keeps on churning a galaxy of smartphones to satiate the public demand. I was wrong to think that LG would be redundant in the smartphone arena...the latest G2 from LG has really proved me wrong. I do believe that LG G2 is the best smartphone in 2013, meaning that it is better than Samsung Galaxy S4 and iPhone 5S. Knowing that it needs to do something different to stand out from the rest of the smartphones, LG decided to change its physical layout. \u00a0One of the most obvious differences is the placement of the volume rocker and power button. Guess where they have been moved...\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo the back. LG believes that as the size of smartphones has increased, it is only logical to place the physical buttons on the back instead of around the edges. So by placing the volume rocker and power button at the back-directly underneath the camera, the LG G2 becomes more ergonomic.\u00a0It remains to be seen if this new layout is acceptable or not with the masses. Judging by its specs, LG G2 is undeniably the powerhouse smartphone of the year. Let's look at what it has got to offer to prospective buyers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDISPLAY\n\nOne will be astounded by the beautiful display on the LG G2. At a resolution of 1920x1080 with 423ppi, the sharpness, colour accuracy and clarity are unlike any other smartphone displays that you have seen before. The huge 5.2\" inch full HD 1080 IPS delivers extraordinary graphics and sharp text with vividly true-to-life colours that will blow you away. Videos played look like true 1080p even on its screen, making it one of the best full-screen experience display. Gamers can expect to feast their eyes on beautiful graphics at its fullest detail.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCAMERA\n\nLG G2 has certainly one of the best camera on a smartphone featuring a 13MP Sony IMX135 Exmor Sensor. At 13MP and with 9-point autofocus, you can expect to capture all your priceless moments crisply, of high quality and full of details. You will even have Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) at your disposal to ensure you only capture stunning images and Full HD 1080 videos that are not \"Shaky\". LG has combined a simple UI with features that please both avid shutterbugs and casual photographers. Besides, if you are planning to buy LG G2, you will be happy to know that the camera features scratch-resistant sapphire crystal glass that can protect your lens for years.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUSER INTERFACE\n\nIt appears that LG is trying to give its buyers a more pleasant user interface by adding some flavours over the stock android. LG has taken a really bold step with its UI by allowing users total customization over everything (almost): Icons, colours in folders, the settings menu, navigation button arrangement, lock and home screen and almost anything that you can think of. You can go as far to say that it is like a full-fledged third-party launcher. So this is a tweaker dream come true? I would be gladly fiddling with it. :)\n\n\n\nYou will be more productive with LG G2\n\n\n\nCliptray\n\n\n\n\n\nQSlide\n\n\n\n\n\nSlideAside\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKnockOn-Instead of pressing the homekey...just knock.\n\n\n\n\nSOFTWARE SUITE\n\nLG G2 is designed to be your ultimate productivity tool. LG has added some really nifty apps like QuickMemo, QSlide, and Slide Aside that allows to accomplish multiple tasks at once. With the long press of the volume up button or the quick swipe up from home, you can get instant access into QuickMemo to write your notes. By pulling down the notification tray, you can jump into a variety of QSlide apps that hover as mini apps over whatever you are doing. You can change its transparency to see through to your background task and even open more than one at a time. With Slide Aside, you can use a 3-finger swiping gesture while in an app to hide it off to the side. Up to 3 apps can be stacked up to the side, accessing them again with another 3-finger swipe. Seems like LG wants you to be a multi-tasker.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLG G2 has one of the fastest processor to date.\n\nSPECS\n\nLG G2 comes with a slew of specs that will make you drool. Under its hood, you will have the latest quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor from Qualcomm clocked at a blazing fast 2.26GHz with an upgraded Adreno 330GPU. Then throw in the gargantuan 5.2\" Full HD Display, 2GB of RAM, 13MP camera with OIS, 32GB of storage, 4G LTE and a whopping 3,000mAh of battery all meticulously fitted into its svelte frame of only 8.9mm thick...voila you have a superphone that few will come close to match for months (which is an eon in smartphone calender).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere is not a single doubt that LG G2 is on top of other smartphones at the moment, looking down at Samsung Galaxy S4, HTC One and even iPhone 5S. Thanks to its quad-core 2.26GHz Snapdragon 800 processor and 2GB of RAM, LG G2 performs unbelievably snappy and buttery smooth no matter what you are doing. G2 can multitask easily without any hiccup and it will be difficult for others to keep up with it...at least for a few months.\n\n\n\n\n\nLG G2 vs Samsung Galaxy S4 vs iPhone 5s\n\n\nThis latest superphone from LG has shown how much LG is trying to improve and innovate and they have succeeded. Let's see if Galaxy S5 can compete with G2 next year. As for now I believe the throne belongs to LG G2-King of Android 2013!\n"} {"title": "Mustek DockingScan-The Scanner For Your iPads", "body": "\nIn my every day work, I use scanner fairly a lot when I need to \"capture\" documents for use.

Before this I thought all scanners are the same boring, uninspiring flatbed until I meet Mustek scanner made specifically for iPads! Introducing the unbelievable Mustek DockingScan for all generations of iPads (from 1st to the third reincarnation). Surely a lot of naysayers and skeptics will be saying, \"Scanner for you iPad?\" The tone of disbelief fills the air...I was equally doubtful as well...\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy new scanner-DockingScan for iPad!\n\n\n\n\n\nSo does this DockingScan look like?\n\n\n\n\n\nIt certainly doesn't look like your ordinary scanner right?\n\n\n\n\n\nPower button.

Besides scanning photos and documents, Mustek DockingScan can also triple up a a docking cradle and charging station. So basically it is a 3-in-1 gadget! It is really a head-mover mind you. My DockingScan is an elegant white small candybar that exudes so much class to it, especially its round metallic edges.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOnce you have downloaded the i-Scan App you can start scanning!\n\n\n\n\n\nJust dock your iPad into the DockingScan.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick on the i-Scan app and voila you can start scanning.\n\n\n\n\nBefore you can use the scanner, you need to install the i-Scan app in Apple Store.

Like I have mentioned earlier, one of the coolest features about DockingScan is its real-time preview the moment you pop in a document or a photo. It really can't get any better than this. I think one of the most important reasons why I am so in love with DockingScan is because of its ultra simple and interactive user interface. It only takes you 3 \"touches\" to scan anything. Awesome right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI love the fact that DockingScan can scan all my photos effortlessly.\n\n\n\n\n\nSee~:D\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's time to start \"archiving\" my family photos.\n\n\n\n\nI am so in love with my DockingScan! 5-star rating from me :D\n\n\n\nI have even brought my new scanner to my office for my own personal use because it is portable and lightweight. Of course I could not escape my colleagues envious stares.

After all the wrist is going to be the next big \"Real Estate\" that gadgets maker are going to target on. 2 days have gone (since 4th of September), we saw Samsung Galaxy Gear's arrival and I was a bit upset that it was nothing really much to shout about. Relatively speaking Galaxy Gear does pack a punch but it fell short from most of our expectations. What do you think?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy Gear-What's your colour?\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy Gear comes in 6 different colours (as in wrist bands). It sports a 1.63inch AMOLED display (instead of the rumoured 3) with a 320x320 pixel resolution. Deep in Samsung Galaxy Gear, there is an 800-megahertz processor (instead of a dual-core 1GB) processor pulling all the strings. There is 512MB of RAM which I doubt will be sufficient in the long run. On the bright side, Samsung has included an impressive 1.9MP autofocus camera.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you fancy a Galaxy Gear?\n\n\n\nAs expected Samsung Galaxy Gear comes with S Voice which will be very useful for users. Thankfully Galaxy Gear is fitted with Bluetooth 4.0 instead of .03 and there are 2 must-have sensors: accelerometer and gyroscope. Perhaps one of the reasons why Samsung Galaxy Gear will cost you a bomb-US$299 (RM999) is its 4GB of integrated storage which is very, very ample. Samsung has claimed that so there will be 70 apps available.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe White version of Galaxy Gear with 1.9MP camera.\n\n\n\n\nUnfortunately unlike Sony Smartwatch 2, Galaxy Gear is claimed to be only compatible with Samsung devices and for now, it will be exclusively available for Note 3. A move that is self-limiting if Samsung were to shackled their own legs. Moreover I doubt that the tiny battery 315mAh of Samsung Galaxy Gear can even last a day of \"regular\" 24-hour use. We are so not going to plug it into the wall right? As for now I don't think Galaxy Gear can even match my Vibratable G-Shock Casio Watch that can last up to 10 years without charging. Beat that!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatch how Galaxy Gear can be used as a compliment for Note 3\n\n\n\n\nVERDICT: If you value fashion over functionality, Galaxy Gear seems like the timepiece that you can flaunt at events to impress your geeky friends. However given its exorbitant price and short battery life, Galaxy Gear is an expensive fashion statement that will not be pragmatic in the long run. Last but not least, I do feel that Samsung has been rushing this Galaxy Gear just to beat the others (Sony, Pebble, Apple?). So I don think that Galaxy Gear is an unpolished device from Sammy. What say you?\n"} {"title": "Samsung Galaxy Gear Smartwatch Leaked?", "body": "\nThe most anticipated gadget of the year has got to be Samsung Galaxy Gear-the smartwatch that all of us have been waiting for months. Ahead of its official launch on the 4th of September, Venture Beat managed to get leaked photos or screenshots from a marketing promotional video for the Galaxy Gear. It appears that this unofficial Galaxy Gear sports a 3-inch screen with rounded corners. The wristbands look quite thick and clunky-enough to hold speakers in the clasp I assume.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy Gear smartwatch?\n\n\n\nBesides NFC, Samsung Galaxy Gear can also work with other smartphone using Bluetooth. It is claimed that there will be a built-in 4-megapixel camera. Apparently there will be Samsung S Voice for voice commands. Being a touchscreen enabled watch, Galaxy Gear will allow you to access all the apps and functions on it easily. You will be able to surf the internet as well. Rest assured that Galaxy Gear would be socially integrated and you can expect all the bells and whistles of Facebook, Twitter etc.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo what apps do you wanna use?\n\n\n\n\nBattery wise, Samsung Galaxy Gear could hold up to 10 hours of juice for normal usages. I believe this is a bit too \"short\" if we were to use it as a watch replacement extensively. Interestingly Galaxy Gear seems to be engineered to give Nike Fuel Band a run for its money. So we can expect Samsung Galaxy Gear to be quite health-centric. There will be lots of health and fitness related features being fitted into the Galaxy Gear.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMeasuring heartbeat using Galaxy Gear?\n\n\n\n\nHere's how you can get healthy with Samsung Galaxy Gear:\n\nWhile you\u2019re at the gym pumping some iron, the Galaxy Gear can track your health data, including steps, heart rate and calorie intake.\nIt has a built-in heart rate monitor to measure your heart rate anytime, anywhere.\nThere will be a highly customizable workout app that will help you to lose weight, gain energy or tone up your muscles according to your preferences.\nGalaxy Gear can also track your calorie intake by taking photos of your meals.\n\n\nSo do you like this official leaked look of Samsung Galaxy Gear? Honestly I don't really fancy this version of Samsung Galaxy Gear. It look so cumbersome, huge and not attractive at all. I am sure all of us are expecting a smartwatch which is visually appealing and trendy.\u00a0Samsung Galaxy Gear must look flashy and it must be a fashion statement. I hope this leaked Galaxy Gear is merely a prank. Right? From pragmatic point of view, I really hope that Galaxy Gear could pack more juice into their battery. 10 hours will not be suffice for someone like me\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am expecting Galaxy Gear to classier than this.\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0So let us wait for the real official Galaxy Gear on the 4th of September which is 2 days from now. Yay! :D\n"} {"title": "Online Shopping With Lazada Android App-My Brand New R-Whale Power Bank!", "body": "\nOur gadgets, be it smartphones or tablets are virtually nothing if they could not could not last \"longer\". In other words our smartphones or tablets are \"useless\" if they don't have any juice left to power it right? The fact that our touchscreen smartphone and apps are heavy-battery drainers, make it even worse. You wouldn't want your smartphone to be stuck to the power socket on the wall all the time right? That is why we need a contingency plant for our gadgets-Power Bank!\n\n\n\n\n\nHaven for online shoppers!\n\n\nAfter I have upgraded to an Android, I realized that I really need to have even more battery juice to keep my smartphone alive. Having said so, I have been rigorously looking for a reliable Power Bank which is not reasonably priced but also stylish and mobile. So far my effort has been fruitless until I stumbled upon Lazada.\u00a0I chanced upon Lazada and I decided to download it to see if it is as good as the real thing-the full-fledged computer version of Lazada.\n\n\n\n\n\nOk~let's go shopping!\n\n\nBeing a father of 2 rambunctious babies, my hands were always full and I hardly have any free time to go shopping. So it makes perfect sense for me to download the Lazada App to satiate my crave for shopping gadgets. Download was zippy (2.5MB) and in no time I was fiddling with my fingers to check out the fantastic deals that Lazada is offering.

So why would I go for this power bank when it can have around 4000mAh of juice? First thing first I chose it because I don't need to use it very often, so after charging my smartphone twice I can recharge this power bank of mine. Secondly I was hooked up to this R-Whale Universal i8 Power Bank because it is the most beautiful one that I could find. It is simple and elegant...and it reminds you of the mouse that Apple has huh!\n\n\n\n\n\nIn just one day my Power Bank had arrived!\n\n\nMost importantly I bought R-Whale Universal i8 Power Bank because it was sold at a very rock-bottom price at Lazada. Instead of the recommended retail price of RM229. I bought my gorgeous R-Whale Power Bank for only RM53 which is a whopping 77%! It is really a steal for power bank that looks so stunningly beautiful. I am going to bring my R-Whale out a lot and it has proved to be a head-turner among my friends.

I spent less than 10 minutes to find my dream power bank using the Lazada App and the next day it is on my doorstep already. This is what we call super, duper efficient! Thanks to Lazada!\n"} {"title": "Google's Motorola Moto X Review [PICS+VIDEOS]", "body": "\nAfter months of anticipation leaks, Google has finally unveils its very first smartphone-the Motorola X. This is the very first smartphone conceived of, created and sold completely after Motorola was acquired by Google. Moto X promises innovative design and features that will make it more aware and \"sensitive\" to its surrounding. One of the 3 most promising features of Moto X are \"Touchless Control\", 2-second pocket to shutter camera and highly customizable casing colours.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeautiful Motorola Moto X\n\n\n\nTOUCHLESS CONTROL\n\nOr also known as \"Active Voice\"-Touchless Control allows you to awaken your Moto X and operate it even without touching it. For instance all you need to do is say, \"Ok, Goole Now!\" and the screen will unlock on its own. You can do virtually everything with this active voice features: Making a phone call, sending an sms, getting navigation directions, searching something on Goodle, change the track of music, checking the weather, setting a reminder etc. Amazing right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith Touchless Control Your Moto X is Always Ready for you!\n\n\n\n\nYou do not need to get connected to the internet for Touchless Control to work. The best part is Motorola Moto X will learn your voice and allows only you to give it orders!\u00a0So it will only respond to you and only you alone. How cool is that right? This Touchless Control feature is really something that can make our live a lot easier and safer as well. Now you can make a call even without touching you smartphone. Awesome feature from Google and Motorola!\n\n\n\n2-SECOND QUICK CAPTURE\n\nWe all know how important camera is to a smartphone right now and that is why Google is heavily promoting the camera on its Motorola Moto X! The most unbelievable feature about Moto X is the speed where you can go from locked displayed to captured photo in just 2 seconds! Imagine now from your pocket to snapped photo you only need 2 seconds...versus times of 8 to 10 seconds with other smartphone. This is lightning fast. This is something that other phones have yet to address right?\n\n\n\n\n\n10-megapixel Clear Pixel camera.\n\n\n\n\nQuick Capture to snap all your priceless moments!\n\n\n\n\nSo how can you reach for your smartphone, take it and snap a photo in just 2 seconds? Let's look at the technology behind Motorola Moto X shall we? Apparently Google has created a gesture that automatically wakes Moto X up to camera mode. Once you reach for your Moto X, just twist the phone over once or twice, you will activate the camera and then pressing anywhere on the screen when the camera is on will take a photo. Voila~this is what we call never miss another priceless moment!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe new Motorola Moto X's 10-megapixel camera shooter uses a technology called Clear Pixel, which will let in 75% more light for more accurate sunlit and night time photos. On the flip side there is a 2-megapixel front-facing camera for your selfies and video calls. Moto X has a very clean camera interface where all the setting have been moved off the screen. You can fetch them just by swiping to the left. Besides you just run your finger up or down anywhere on the screen to activate the digital zoom. Pretty intuitive and easier to use, especially with one hand.\n\n\nCOLOUR YOUR MOTO X\n\nThis must have been the most inspiring feature about Moto X. Motorola will allow you to go to a website and completely customize how you want your Moto X to look like. At Moto Maker, you can choose from 18 different back colors, two front colors and about a dozen colors for the volume buttons and camera lens rim; you can also also choose to emboss a signature on the back of your Moto X and choose a wallpaper that ships with your phone. Now this is really, really personal.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYes~you can choose your colour!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMotorola Moto X has a 4.7inch AMOLED display with a 720p HD resolution (1280x720) \u00a0with a density count of 312ppi. Moto X employs a 720p display (instead of 1080) to help the 2,200 mAh battery to live up to its promise of 24-hour (full day) battery life. Still the display looks stunningly clear and crisp without any appreciable difference compared to a full HD screen. A smart move by Google here.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4.7inch AMOLED Display\n\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, Motorola Moto X is powered by the X8 Processor which is essentially a mashup of a customized dual-core 1.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro chipset, a quad-core Adreno 320GPU and two digital signal processors-one for natural language (Touchless Control) and the other for contextual computing. This customized combo of processors will help to keep power consumption to the very minimum. Besides you will have 2GB of RAM to support the main processor.\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can even choose the colour of your camera rim and buttons!\n\n\n\n\nMoto X runs on\u00a0Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean instead of the rumored Android 4.3. It is notable that Moto X hews closer to stock Android, with three onscreen capacitive navigation controls. Google tried to put away as many bloatware as possible to keep Moto X fast and light. Then again there are special features that are all Moto X's own. There is a unique active display element called Peek which is a notifications pop up on the lock screen; holding the alert bubble brings up more details, like the message interior, even when the phone is locked. You just need to slide up to open the app.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMoto X for him!\n\n\n\n\n\nMoto X for her!\n\n\n\nTo sum it up, Motorola Moto X is an awesome smartphone that can hold up on its own. It comes in 2 different storage 16GB and 32 GB respectively. The only drawback is the absence of external storage. Otherwise Motorola Moto X is by far one of the best smartphones up there together with the likes of Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One X. I really wanna see if Moto X can give Samsung and its Galaxy line a run for its money or not.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMoto X is something that Americans can be proud of!\n\n\n\n\nThe Moto X which supports 4G LTE and Bluetooth 4.0 should be available either by the end of August or shortly thereafter, on AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Sprint and U.S. Cellular. Motorola has not announced a formal release date or price, but says suggested retail value is $199 for a 16GB model with a two-year contract. I believe it will reach Malaysia by December with a retail price of RM1,999. So are you excited? For more information got Motorola Moto X official page.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo who wants Motorola Moto X?\n\n\nP.S.: iPhone was not mentioned until now because it can't even compete with Moto X. Besides Apple iPhone is assembled in China where workers were exploited. :/ Yeah~I am being biased.\n\n\n"} {"title": "Apple iPhone Lite Spotted-A Cheaper iPhone For You", "body": "\niPhone-Lite-A \"lighter\" version of iPhone? It appears that Apple has finally realized that it could no longer rely on its premium Apple iPhone alone, should it want to remain as the leaders in smartphones sector. So Apple has finally conceded defeat after being wedged by cheaper entry-level androids and better high-end smartphones? That is why Apple is going to produce a more affordable iPhone (Lite) for emerging markets and especially for those who cannot afford the expensive device; That is why iPhone Lite is being made to diversify Apple's offering and at least stop its market share from eroding.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\niPhone Lite Leaked on Weibo\n\n\n\n\nIf rumours were to be true, then the world would soon be welcoming a white plastic iPhone Lite. Yes, of course it will be in plastic, it not how could Apple sell it cheap to you and maintain reasonable profit margin aye? This leaked photo of the so-called iPhone Lite looks genuine to me as there is various certificate markings on the rear casing including the one from FCC. It is claimed that you could interchange the cover for this Apple iPhone Lite.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDon't you fancy having your iPhone Lite in different colours?\n\n\nIt is also reported that Apple iPhone Lite will feature a dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, support 4G connectivity and there is even Bluetooth 4.0 These features will nicely put iPhone Lite in the region of mid-range smartphone. And the good news is, it will be running on iOS7 as well.\u00a0It is expected that iPhone Lite will be announced together with the upcoming iPhone 5S in September 2013. I bet it will be priced around RM1,000 (US$300). Will Apple decision to stoop \"low\" by selling \"cheap\" smartphone pay dividends? Or will it be a backlash by fanboys who have been championing it as being premium? Let's wait and see.\n"} {"title": "Sony Xperia ZR-The New Waterproof Smartphone", "body": "\nIt appears that Sony is making waves with their new flapship waterproof smartphones. Behold the Sony Xperia ZR which is elegantly encased in a chassis that is not only water resistant but also dust resistant.

Rain God was to blame for its unfortunate, badly-timed, demise. My life came to an abrupt halt and I needed a new smartphone to use immediately. After pondering for quite some time I decided to buy Ninetology's Black Pearl 2 smartphone. I am\u00a0unbelievably\u00a0impressed with my Black Pearl 2 as it is really, really darn good for its price-RM299 (US$100). It is really a bargain if you ask me.\n\n\n\n\n\nNinetology Black Pearl 2\n\n\nI am so, so in love with my new Black Pearl 2 right now. If you ask me...it is simply one of the best smartphone out there for just RM299 (US$100). Other Black Pearl 2 owners will gleefully nod their heads to agree. Then again the actual price for this wonderful Android Smartphone is RM599. However yours, truly me, managed to get someone (thank you) to allow me to use her \"Pakej Komunikasi Belia\" to get a whopping RM200 discount. Then the manufactur-Ninetology, throws in another RM100 discount to sweeten the deal. That's why I managed to get this awesome Black Pearl 2 for a mere RM299. :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am so in love with \"9\" right now.\n\n\n\n\n\nFinally~My Black Pearl 2\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom Left: Tangle-free headset, USB cable and charger.\n\n\n\n\nHowever, before the\u00a0Scrooge\u00a0in me decided to part with my RM299 to get this smartphone, I did a lot of research about this Black Pearl 2 from Ninetology. After days of contemplating, I finally took out my hard-earned money to buy my new Black Pearl 2 which I am deeply in love with right now. I must say that I am glad that I bought this smartphone. It is a very, very wise decision to buy the Black Pearl 2 at such a rock-bottom price of RM299 (I can't help it...I have to repeat this again and again). LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy new brilliant Black Pearl 2 :D\n\n\n\n\nHere's what I get in my powerful Black Pearl 2. It sports a huge 4inch IPS screen with 16 million colours with a relatively impressive 244ppi piel density. Under its hood, there is a fast 1.0GHz dual-core processor with 521MB \u00a0of RAM to ensure everything is fluid on Black Pearl 2. As for internal storage, there are 4GB for your apps, store photos and of course the Android OS. A bit too little if you ask me but thank goodness you can upgrade your storage with a MicroSD card which can support up to a whopping 32GB of storage.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat's inside of my Black Pearl 2...behind to be precise.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom left: MicroSD slot and the 2 sim cards lot. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe 1,600mAh battery is more than sufficient. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBlack Pearl 2 is equipped with an advertised 5MP shooter. However you will be surprised to know that the actual quality of rear camera on Black Pearl 2 is 8.0MP. Yupe! The rear camera has auto-focus, face-detection features and even an LED flash. Not bad for a RM299 smartphone right? However the front camera is only 0.3MP...could have been a little bit better right? As for the connectors, you will get the usual USB 2.0 and 3.5mm audio jack.\n\n\n\n\nMy Black Pearl 2 is light, tipping the scale at only 139g.\n\n\n\n\nOn top: The power button, micro USB slot and the audio jack.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe volume rocker on the right.\n\n\n\nNow let's talk about the\u00a0connectivity\u00a0of Black Pearl 2 shall we? First thing first it supports 2 sim cards which is really a plus point for me. Black Pearl 2 is a 3G (HSPDA, \u00a0HUSPA) smartphone that comes with Wifi, Bluetooth 3 and even GPS. Yupe! You can use Google Map and Foursquare with Black Pearl 2. Yay! There is even FM thrown in for those who prefer to listen to radio. Last but not least my Black Pearl 2 is juiced by a 1,600mAh Li-ion battery that can last me for a day with normal usage.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI love my new Black Pearl 2 which...white. :D\n\n\n\n\nAfter using my Black Pearl 2 for almost a week, I must say that I really, really love this smartphone a lot. I have installed plenty of apps in it: games and productivity apps. I know some of you are experiencing problem with its battery life and GPS lockdown. I have solved the battery usage and GPS problems by upgrading the firmware in my BlackPearl 2 into Firmware 17. That is why my Black Pearl 2 can really last me more than a day. So do I think RM299 for this Black Pearl 2 is worth my money? Of course. Black Pearl 2 is by far the best smartphone for its price. :D\n"} {"title": "My Nokie E72 Has Passed Away...", "body": "\nIt has finally dawned upon me that my beloved, trusted Nokia E72 can no longer serve me any longer.

Do you agree? Of course I would say that HTC One is a strong contender for the coveted \"King of Android\"; But so far Samsung Galaxy S4 looks totally unstoppable to take over the world this year.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy S4-Your Life Companion.\n\n\n\nDon't expect any Anti-Apple Apple bashing commercials here.

Very impressive!\n\n\n\n\nSound Shot-breath life into your photos.\n\n\n\n\nGroup Play-makes sharing easy.\n\n\n\nIn the second advertisement, you will be able to see how you can use Group Play to share media such as music with the people around you.

However it is not a smartphone that Mark Zuckerberg and his team build from the scratch; Instead it is the company's very own Android flavour custom-made for a HTC brand new phone-HTC First! It is aptly named so because HTC First is the first smartphone to be optimized with Facebook Home. HTC first will be launched exclusively by AT&T in 12th April 2013 for US$99.99. I would say that this new sexy HTC First is a big phone (4.3inch) but not too big.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHTC First with Facebook Home\n\n\n\n\n\nDifferent flavours: Black, White, Pale Blue and Red.\n\n\n\nHTC First will be available in available in 4 different colours: Red, Black, White and of course blue...Pale Blue to be precise. HTC has called its First \"the BEST Facebook experience\" and the \"ONLY phone with Facebook Home pre-loaded and optimized.\"\u00a0So First will have all its email notifications and calenders to be integrated into Facebook Home. Besides, it is also the first smartphone to come with preloaded Instagram. Another \"First\" aye?\n\n\n\nLet's look at Facebook Home on HTC First\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLiking is now easier and cooler!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn paper, HTC First appears to be a mid-range smartphone with dual-core Snapdragon 400 processor with 1GB of RAM, Android 4.1 and a 4.3inch 720p glass display. HTC First is slim and light. Its rounded edges and matte rubberized shell will give you a comfortable and pleasant feel when you cradle in your hand. Facebook Home is actually\u00a0a suite of apps and a home screen replacement for your ordinary Android phones. Do note that Home it's not just a new UI for launching apps. Instead it replaces the lockscreen with Cover Feed and prioritizes updates from people in your Facebook instead of apps.\n\n\nWatch how the new Facebook Home works on HTC First\n\n\n\n\nHow to use Facebook Notifications on Facebook Home\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to use Chat Heads on Facebook Home\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to use Cover Feed on Facebook Home\n\n\n\nThe focus that Facebook Home wants to bring is the full-screen images that are your new welcome screen. There will be status updates from your friends that you can easily flip through and double tap to like when someone posts something the you like (of course). Likewise normal text status updates are placed over a user's cover photo. This will keep the appearance consistent with photo-centric posts. I am sure Facebook addicts will be loving HTC First for all these cool features.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Home~is this your Nirvana, Facebook addicts?\n\n\n\n\nHTC First also has another interesting feature tightly integrated into it which is Chat Heads. Chat Heads is actually Facebook's messaging app which intricately built into the phone,\u00a0allowing you to quickly and easily talk to your friends without leaving whatever app you are opening. Chat Heads appear as circular icons on the right. The cool thing is you can drag to place them anywhere you like. Awesome! Then again, Facebook Home will be available for other smartphones as well such as Samsung Galaxy S3, Note 2, HTC One, One X+ etc. Then again it is claimed that none of them could rival the ultimate experience that comes with HTC First.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhich colour do you LIKE?\n\n\n\n\nSo what do you think about HTC First which is optimized with Facebook Home. I am sure those who use Facebook a lot will appreciate it a lot. Now you can be more connected to Facebook. I guess HTC First will only be arriving in Malaysia somewhere around the second half of the year. How will HTC First be priced in Malaysia? I don't know...around RM1,000 for the very \"First\" Facebook Phone?\n"} {"title": "Bra Dryer That Girls Have Been Dreaming", "body": "\nGirls~ladies~women~don't you agree that it is not easy at all to dry your beautiful bras after you have washed them?

After months of speculations and leakages, we got to see the Samsung Galaxy S4 for real. Despite not living to some of the ridiculous hypes, Samsung Galaxy S4 proves that it still have plenty of tricks up its sleeves! With the plethora of\u00a0unbelievable\u00a0features being offered in this amazing Samsung Galaxy S4, I am sure millions more Galaxy(s) will be sold with Apple scratching their heads thinking how they can make their boring iPhone more interesting! If you are a gadgets purist (being\u00a0neutral\u00a0that is), you will agree that iPhone 5 is nothing compared to Samsung Galaxy S4.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe amazing Samsung Galaxy S4\n\n\n\n\nEven though Samsung Galaxy S4 has tonnes of innovate features that the \"amazing\" iPhone 5 doesn't have, it still outperforms (as usual) Apple's iPhone in the hardware department. Under the hood, Samsung Galaxy S4 is powered by 1.9GHz Octa-core Exynos 5 Processor which is being backed by a whopping 2 GB of RAM. These alone will blow away most of the smartphones on the market...not mention iPhone 5 is no where near Samsung Galaxy S4. Yet iPhone 5 sporting A6 Dual-core 1.2GHz processor with 1GB of RAM is selling expensively? Why is Apple treating their consumers like idiots? (I know fan boys will disagree!)\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy S4 Full Specifications\n\n\n\n\n\nSamsung\n Galaxy S4\n\n\n\n\nDisplay:\n\n\n5-inch 1080p 441ppi Super AMOLED\n\n\n\n\nProcessor:\n\n\n1.9GHz Octa(Quad) core processor\n\n\n\n\nOS:\n\n\nAndroid 4.2.2 Jelly Bean\n\n\n\n\nCameras:\n\n\n13-Megapixel camera (autofocus, 1080p video\n capture)\n\n2-Megapixel front-facing camera \n\n\n\n\nRAM:\n\n\n2 GB of RAM\n\n\n\n\nMemory:\n\n\n16GB, 32GB or 64GB\n\n\n\n\nExpandable Storage:\n\n\nMicroSD (expandable to 64GB)\n\n\n\n\nDimensions:\n\n\n69.8mm x 136.6mm x 7.9mm\n\n\n\n\nWeight:\n\n\n130g\n\n\n\n\nBattery:\n\n\n2600mAh battery\n\n\n\n\nColour:\n\n\nWhite Frost & Black Mist\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHARDWARE & DESIGN\n\n\nDespite the bigger screen size of 5inch HD Super AMOLED compared to that of Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy S4 is always smaller than its predecessor. It is slighty shorter and slimmer (7mm) compared to GS3. Meaning more screen time. The down side of Samsung Galaxy S4 is it is still so-called \"plasticky\". Meaning that a whole lot of plastic is still being used to build it. Then again Samsung Galaxy S4 is spotting a new\u00a0embellishment-metallic bar that runs along the edge of it to give a premium feel to it. However it is not metal, but polycarbonate to protect the sensitive corner of Samsung Galaxy S4.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCAMERA & VIDEO SHOOTING\n\nOne of the biggest bump in the new Samsung Galaxy S4 has gotta be the upgrade in the camera. Samsung bumped up the 8-megapixel sharp-shooter in Galaxy S3 to 13-Megapixel of precise shooting machine. On the front, there is a 2-Megapixel camera for video call. In Samsung Galaxy S4, it is its Camera Software makes it so superior even when you compare it to a normal standalone camera. For starters the camera app now uses the same User Interface as the Samsung Galaxy Camera.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDual-shot mode.\n\n\n\n\nThere are plenty of features for both beginners and\u00a0professional\u00a0shutter bugs to savour. One of the more interesting feature is the \"Eraser\". You can use this \"Eraser\" to erase unwanted people from your photos. Samsung claimed that this feature will come in handy when you shoot photos in crowded area where you wanna delete all those \"needless\" folks from your photos. Sounds interesting huh! I wonder how it will really work out.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSound & Shoot-Photos with sound.\n\n\n\n\nThe Camera App's dual-shot mode has gotta be one of the most exciting feature any photographer/videographer would one to have. You can use both the cameras on Samsung Galaxy S4 (13MP rear + 2MP front) at the same time to snap photos and capture videos!\u00a0Now you will never ever be left \"behind\" anymore when you snap photos or capture videos! Goodness! What a darn, darn brilliant feature! Besides, there is also the Sound and Shot mode which allows you to ad up to 9 seconds of audio for your photos. This will make the photos even better for remembrance.\n\n\n\nSOFTWARE\n\nRelying on the native software and UI of the stock Android will never make any smartphone good. That is why the nifty and yet practical software thrown into Samsung Galaxy S4 allow it to beat all the other smartphones easily (including iPhone 5 of course). One of the most useful feature in Samsung Galaxy S4 is the Air View. Hover your finger onto something and you will get a pop-up view of what's inside of it. For example, if you were to hover over a photo album, you will see 9 thumbnails of the photos in the album. Air View is integrated into the email client, photo gallery, calender, Flipboard etc. It is like in the Galaxy Note 2 but without the need of an S-Pen.\n\n\n\nApart from Air View, Samsung has added Air Gesture which allows you to use Samsung Galaxy S4 without really touching it. With Air Gesture, you can swipe left or right to switch between web pages, tracks of songs, photos in the gallery, just to name a few. While reading an article you can even swipe up or down to scroll. Heck you can even accept calls just by waving at Samsung Galaxy S4. This is really practical if you are driving? Besides, you can use this Air Gesture to use your Samsung Galaxy S4 when you are eating your oily fried chicken. So no more worries about staining the screen? Ha :D\n\n\n\nWe have seen the Smart Stay in Samsung Galaxy S3 whereby the front-camera can detect that your head is facing the phone directly, which prevents it from dimming. In Samsung Galaxy S4, Smart Pause will automatically pause a video when you turn your away from it. So no more missing any moments in a movie? Rumours have it that Galaxy S4 will come with \"eye tracking\" technology, which is pretty impossible. However \u00a0Samsung claimed that by using tilt-gestures as well as \u201chead-tracking\u201d technology in it Smart Scroll to streamline browsing a page was \u201cthe most intuitive and natural to the end-consumer.\u201d Hmm...a novelty, but is it pragmatic?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGroupPlay for surround sound!\n\n\n\n\nBesides its S Beam and TecTile Integration, Samsung Galaxy S4 also makes sure that it uses its NFC technology to the max by allowing you to pair up to 8 other NFC-devices to activate a feature called GroupPlay, which lets you blast the same song across 8 different devices...wow! Speaking about surround sound system aye? Last but not least of the interesting software is the inclusion of an IR blaster on the Galaxy S 4 so that you can utilize it as a remote for just about any modern television. So now you can flip any channels using your Samsung Galaxy S4.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's time to get healthier with Samsung Galaxy S4\n\n\n\n\nSamsung also wants to have your healthier with Galaxy S4. That is where The S Health App comes into the picture. Using the Samsung Galaxy S4's integrated pedometer, S Health can track your activity throughout the day and it will know when you are running, walking or even climbing stairs. Apart from that S Health also enables you to input your consumption activities and give you suggestions on how to stay fit and healthy. Galaxy S4 can also adjust to you and your surrounding via Adapt Display and Adapt Sound respectively to ensure your eyes and ear drums are delicately protected. Speaking about being courteous huh!\n\n\n\n\nWatch and be amazed with what Samsung Galaxy S4 can do for you.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVERDICT\n\nAll in all, Samsung Galaxy S4 is a superphone that comes with plenty of features that are aimed to make your life better and not to mention healthier. Samsung has built Galaxy S4 to be your life companion for you to have fun, enjoy your relationships, manage your life better and of course live a healthier life. So far, I dare say that Samsung Galaxy S4 is the best smartphone available on the market. It is not only smart but also very caring at the same time. iPhone 5 cannot even be mentioned in the same breath as Samsung Galaxy S4. Period!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI WANT SAMSUNG GALAXY S4!\n\n\n\nP.S.: Samsung Galaxy S4 is expected to reach our Malaysian shore around June and will be priced at RM2,099.\n\n\n"} {"title": "Samsung Galaxy S4 Introduction [VIDEO]", "body": "\nYupe!

You might be asking: \"So is Asus Padfone 2 a smartphone or a tablet?\" The answer is neither...and both at the same time. How peculiar right? I believe besides Asus, no other company is having such innovative design for their products. In other words, companies like Samsung and Apple won't be venturing into this \"phablet\" industry yet, as they still want to sell as many separate devices as possible! That actually paves way for Asus to be the pioneer in this \"phablet\" niche whereby consumers can now have best of both world within their grasp!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold the mighty Asus Padfone 2 and its docking Station (right)!\n\n\n\n\n\nI really love Asus Padfone's classy design.\n*note* you won't be able to get fingerprints onto the back cover!\n\n\n\nAsus daring attempt goes to show how fierce both the smartphone and tablet segments are. By conjuring Asus Padfone 2, consumers will be able own a smartphone and a tablet at the same time at of course a (relatively) cheaper price. Besides with Asus Padfone 2, you will only need 1 data plan-which means you will be saving a lot of money in the long run!\u00a0I have a strong feeling carriers (Maxis, Celcom, DiGi are not happy with it) Certainly this will lure a lot of buyers, especially those who are budget-conscious.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's see what's under hood of Asus Padfone 2, shall we? For starters, Padfone 2 boast some powerful innards with its 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 quadcore processor (which outperforms Cortex A9 in lots of ways) making sure that everything runs smoothly. Besides being graphically driven by the amazing Adreno 320, there is also 2GB of RAM to make sure Padfone 2 is well-oiled. With such raw \"power\" Padfone 2 is certainly one of the high-end gadgets up there.\n\n\n\n\n\nBeautifully designed for work and play.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDespite having a larger, sharper, 720p, 500-nit, Super IPS 4.7inch screen compared to its predecessor, Padfone 2 is still unbelievably thin at 9mm and only 135g heavy. It is reported that Asus Padfone 2 comes in 3 different flavours for you to choose from namely the 16GB, 32GB and 64 GB. I will recommend you to opt for the 64GB because weirdly (sadly) there is microSD expansion. Asus tries to compensate this by offering buyers a whopping 50GB of Asus Webstorage service for 2 years.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n50GB of Asus Webstorage for you every need!\n\n\n\n\nRest assured that Asus Padfone 2 is well \"connected\", meaning that you can expect all the latest connectivity options on board such as LTE, HSPDA, 3G etc. There are also the usual 802.11a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC, FM radio, GPS and GLONASS for you to toy around. Up next is Padfone 2's rear camera. This snap happy 13-megapixel camera can record 1080p video at 30fps or 720p video at 60fps. Pretty impressive for a phablet. The camera also has another trick up its sleeve.

Both the PadFone 2 and PadFone 2 Station employ SonicMaster technology for amazing sound with enhanced frequency response and improved audio clarity, fine-tuned by Waves, which is a recipient of a Technical GRAMMY Award\u00ae. Wow. So buyers can expect to enjoy \"eargasmic\" sound from these larger loudspeaker, which is claimed to be 40% louder that its predecessor. Meaning that you will have more fun playing games and watching movies will be more enjoyable as well.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore juice for you to play with!\n\n\n\n\nLast but not least we are going to talk about Asus Padfone 2 battery. It will be useful if a powerful machine cannot last long enough for your enjoyment. Thankfully, the Padfone 2 very innovative design of allowing you to slot the smartphone into the station gives you more battery life. Then again the Padfone 2 itself can provide up to 16 hours of 3G talk time, which is quite commendable.

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is the best smartphone in year 2012, no doubt about it. I believe by now, you would have bumped into people on streets holding this gargantuan smartphone.

I dare to say that Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is also the perfect gadget for artists, comic drawers and those who love to take notes in lecture halls. So ditch all your rotten apples for this tablet...opps! I mean smartphone. The retail price of Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is RM 2,200.\n"} {"title": "Nokia PureView 808-The 41 Megapixels Monster", "body": "\nWho would have thought it is Nokia who unleashed this photography phenomenon in the form of Nokia PureView 808. I believe not many observers could envision that Nokia, who has been\u00a0dethroned, is leading the race in smartphone photography with their very first PureView Smartphone The Nokia PureView 808 which is capable of shooting 41 Megapixel photos. Despite having to house a huge sensor, Nokia PureView 808 is still a pretty looking phone with clean lines and curvy edges.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold: The Nokia PureView 808\n\n\n\nWhen you have a smartphone which can take a 41 Megapixel photo-something only a DSLR can churn out, you would have expected such a smartphone to be quite huge. Nokia PureView 808 only tips the scale at 169g, which can be considered relatively light for its innards. Spotting a 4inch AMOLED screen with Corning Gorilla Glass, it feels really solid in your hands. Since the screen is of non-Pentile variant, the blue tinge found on Samsung smartphones will not be found here. Colour reproduction is awesome with its mixture deep blacks and vibrant colours.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow do you like your PureView?\n\n\n\n\nWith Nokia PureView 808, you will be able to take DSLR-like quality photos. All you need to do is spend some time toying around with it and after a while you will be amazed with its magic! You can use Nokia PureView 808 via 3 main options of Scenes, Automatic and Creative. If you are a new kid on the block, try the Automatic mode before scaling up to use Scenes and Creative. Creative is really the way to go if you want to experience the goodness of PureView!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at its backside? So beautiful right?\n\n\n\n\nThen again, even though Nokia PureView 808 is a 41 Megapixel Monster, the photos taken will be too large for your storage. That is why it is better to use this phenom at 5 MP or 8 MP. Ever wonder why such a small smartphone can snap photos with quality similar to bulky DSLR? PureView uses pixel oversampling technology to weave its magic-meaning that up to 7 pixels of data is packed into one single pixel. This results in sharp, clear\u00a0unbelievable\u00a0photos will virtually no noise at all!\n\n\n\n\n\nNokia PureView 808-The 41 MegaPixel Monster!\n\n\n\n\nNokia PureView 808 is really miles ahead of other smartphones. Don't forget to check out its amazing lossless zoom capabilities when you get your hands on it. Do you know that this Nokia PureView 808 also has a 2-stage camera button which focuses when you press halfway? Sounds like DSLRs huh. Of course Nokia PureView 808 comes with full HD video recording and it is capable of zooming up to 4x at 1080p and 6x in 720p mode. Besides that, the audio quality is really superb. So you can expect to shoot an awesome HD movie to showcase to the world with PureView 808!\n\n\n\n\n\nNokia PureView-The next breakthrough in Photography!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatch how you can toy around with a Nokia PureView 808!\n\n\n\n\nEven though Nokia PureView 808 is being powered by Symbian, that doesn't mean it is a pushover. Running on a single-core 1.3GHz ARM processor, IMHO, Nokia PureView 808 is as fast as a dual-core Android. Apart from the zippiness of Symbian, the battery life is really outstanding to say the least. So what else will you get? All the\u00a0necessary\u00a0bands, wifi, bluetooth and even NFC which iPhone 5 doesn't have. Mind you, you will be getting world class GPS with drive navigation and spectacular Map which is miles ahead of iPhone 5. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nWanna know how good Nokia PureView can be with just 5MP?\n\n\n\n\nNokia PureView 808-Time-Lapse Film: Stunning to say the least!\n\n\n\n\nSo who wanna shoot the next Avatar?\n\n\n\nSo should you get this phone? Definitely if you are a budding photographer or a shutterbug who wants to capture to priceless moments with your smartphones. Nokia PureView 808 is even capable of serving as a compact camera or DSLR replacement. If you are in Malaysia, you can look up for prices of Nokia PureView 808 at PricePanda. The last time I checked the lowest price is RM1668.\u00a0It's time to PURE-ify your View with this babe! :)\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you love to shoot photos-you will love Nokia PureView 808\n\n"} {"title": "iPhone 10-Have You Seen It?", "body": "\nI am sure all of you (especially Apple Fan boys and girls) are so worked out with the latest iPhone 5 right? After all, it is a complete upgrade from iPhone 4S, so naturally this Apple will be selling like hot cakes. Then again iPhone 5 has yet to adopt a few of the latest technology available such as NFC and wireless charging capability. So are \u00a0you still contemplating whether you should upgrade to the new iPhone 5 or wait till the release of the next iPhone...maybe you should wait for the release of iPhone 10. Seriously!\n\n\n\nBEHOLD\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThose Apple purists who are so \"AMAZED\" that the new iPhone 5 boosts a new larger 4inch display (it's like so yesterday) will surely like how LONG the screen is on iPhone 10 (above). There are 15 rows of icons which can be displayed on the HUGE screen of iPhone 10. I don't think you even need to swipe to the other page anymore. WHAT??? Still NOT LONG ENOUGH for your need? Worry not iPhone 20 is in the pipeline right now. Haha :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nComing soon...\n\n\n\n\nWOW! iPhone 20 certainly looks like the phone that everyone must have. Imagine you can fit all the apps that you have on the 32 rows visible on the screen. That's like having everything you need right under your nose-just a touch away. Rumours have it that meteoric-iron will be used to build iPhone 20-making it one of the toughest smartphone ever!\u00a0It is also claimed that iPhone 20 will be able to emit razor-sharp laser particles, making it an ideal saber! That is why Jedi has already relayed a message from a future, giving its seal of approval. So who wanna pre-order your iPhone 20? :p\n\n\n\nP.S.: Yours truly me is not an iPhone hater, it's just that I HATE how Apple is doing their business.\n"} {"title": "iPhone 5 VS iPhone 4S: What're The Differences?", "body": "\nFinally the much anticipated iPhone 5 has been unleashed! Are you happy? Honestly I am not impressed with the new iPhone 5 (No! I am not bashing iPhone). Even though iPhone 5 looks like it has leapfrogged it predecessor (iPhone 4S) in a lot of department, iPhone 5 is still relatively weak compared to other smartphones on the market right now. IMHO, there is nothing much to shout about if we were to compare iPhone 5 with Samsung Galaxy S3 (even though Apple has months to make it better than the latter).\u00a0So if you plan to upgrade your really old phone or smartphone, here are a few things about the new iPhone 5 that you need to know.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n8 Things That You Need To Know About The New iPhone 5\n\n\n\niPhone 5 is only 7.6mm thick (18% thinner compared to iPhone 4S) and 20% lighter as it tips the scale at 112grams.\nViewing pleasure-wise, iPhone 5 packs a 4inch (finally) Retina Display which Apple claims have better colour saturation. This allows the new iPhone 5 to have extra set of icons to be displayed.\nAs for connectivity, iPhone 5 now supports LTE, which is a true 4G connection.\nNew A6 CPU-inside: This new processor is said to be 2 times faster than the brain inside of iPhone 4S. It is 22% smaller than its predecessor and definitely more energy-efficient.\nBetter cameraS: Although the rear camera on iPhone 5 is still more or less the same as iPhone 4S-8MP with 5 element lens and an f/2.4 aperture. However the real stunning improvement about the camera on iPhone 5 is its shutter speed which is 40% faster compared to iPhone 4S. So you won't miss a thing now?\nBesides, iPhone 5 camera boost a new Panaromic Shooting Mode which can stitch together an effective 28 MegaPixel photo. This is truly something to shout about!\nWelcome Lightning-the new dock connector which is 80% smaller. Finally they have shrunk the tail!\niPhone 5 will be powered by iOS6 which will have more features and comes with a more \"understanding\" Siri.

I am pretty Apple fan boys and girls are jumping up and down and over the roof with this new \"unbelievable\" iPhone 5. I must admit that iPhone 5 has certainly improved their cameras a lot. However it still cannot be compared to Nokia's really amazing PureView. That aside, AS USUAL there is nothing much to talk about iPhone 5 hardware specifications. Do note that NFC is still not available, which is really a shame. Do you think the new iPhone 5 has really emerged from iPhone 4S' shadow? I don't think so. So what say you folks?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo who want to buy the new iPhone 5?\n\n\n\n\nThe verdict: iPhone 5 is not really a revolutionary device from Apple. I personally believe that iPhone 5 fall short of expectations. Maybe Apple has really lost their mojo after the demise of Steve Jobs. So should you buy the new iPhone 5? If you own the previous version of it-iPhone 4S, the answer would be a NO! However if previously you had given iPhone 4S a BYE (meaning that you own either iPhone 3GS, or iPhone 4), anticipating this new iPhone 5, then the answer is yes. Do note that\u00a0shipments in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Australia, Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore start on September 21st, but you'll be able to pre-order starting on the 14th. Apple plans to add 20 more markets in the coming month. I wonder when it will reach Malaysia. Check out the comparison of iPhone 5 prices.\n"} {"title": "Samsung Galaxy S3-The Android Superphone", "body": "\nFinally a new galaxy is here...introducing Samsung Galaxy S3 which is is inspired by nature, designed for humans! This 3rd generation of premium Galaxy flagship has certainly been able to garner the kind of pre-launch hype that only Apple used to have. It is\u00a0undoubtedly\u00a0the new Android superphone. Can Samsung Galaxy S3 regain its throne from HTC One X and lead the robots to steamroll the new iPhone 5 which will be revealed later this year? I certainly think so.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIntroducing the new Samsung Galaxy S3\n\n\n\nFronted by a stunningly beautiful, bright colour-rich 720p 4.8 inch HD Super Amoled display, Samsung Galaxy S3 will certainly make heads turn in its presence. Although it comes with a huge display, Samsung Galaxy S3 measuring 136.6 x 70.6 x 8.6mm tips to the scale at only 133g. I really love the smooth-edged, pebble like design of Samsung Galaxy S3 which makes it really beautiful. Perhaps one of the main reasons that Samsung is able to keep Galaxy S3 so feather light is because it is made of polycarbonate with \"hyperglaze\" (something that HTC One X is lacking) coating.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor your visual pleasure.\n\n\n\n\nDo note that 4.8inch HD Super AMOLED display of Galaxy S3 is cocooned in the ultra-durable Gorilla Glass 2 which provides better viewing angle. On top of it is the front-facing 1.9MP camera which is capable of recording HD 720p video. Wow! The front camera alone is already that good? Now we can see the other person more clearly at the other end when are are skype-ing. At the bottom, sits a physical home button which is flanked by capacitive menu and the back menu. There is also a multi-coloured notification LED to notify you on any important calls, sms etc.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStunning glossy finish!\n\n\n\n\nFlip Samsung Galaxy S3 over, you will be greeted by an 8MP autofocus camera, capable of shooting 1080HD video. On either sides of the camera are the LED flash and the speaker. I am a bit disappointed that Samsung didn't throw in a 12MP shooter. So instead of shaking up the camera, Samsung gives a lot of emphasize on the software of the camera. You will be glad to know that Galaxy S3 supports dual still and video capture which allows you to snap still photos while capturing video (similar to HTC One X); face tagging for your existing contacts and improved face identification and tracking.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy S3 is drop-dead gorgeous, don't you agree?\n\n\nBoth 1.9MP and 8MP cameras on Galaxy S3 which can shoot HD videos also offers an amazing Burst Shooting Mode at 6 frames-per-second for up to 20 continuous shots and a new Best Photo mode. With the Best Photo Mode, your cameras can snap 8 consecutive photos (also at 6 fps) of the exact same scene, highlighting the most appealing frame, based on parameters which include the contrast, sharpness and even the subject's expression. Obviously Samsung is putting a lot of money in its photography\u00a0enhancement\u00a0department.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChoose the best of your priceless moments.\n\n\n\n\nShare photos with your friends effortlessly.\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, Samsung Galaxy S3's heart is its new Exynos 4 Quad 1.4GHz \u00a0quad-core processor which will consume 20% less power compared to its predecessor. However there will only be 1GB of RAM available, instead of 2GB...which is IMHO a huge letdown. Samsung will be offering Galaxy S3 in 2 different colours (Marble White and Pebble Blue) with 3 different internal storage 16GB, 32GB and 64GB to choose from. I am delighted that Samsung actually include a microSD card slot (support up to 64GB of storage). This is truly a rarity!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNow you can access everything at everywhere.\n\n\n\n\n\nShare just about anything in your home.\n\n\n\n\nGalaxy S3 will be paired with HSPA+21Mbps. The LTE versions of Galaxy S3 might be using different processing. There will be WIFI which supports direct WIFI and channel bonding, Bluetooth 4.0, DLNA, headphone socket, with NFC connected to the battery unit. Galaxy S3 will also come with the usual array of sensors such as\u00a0accelerometer, digital compass, proximity, gyroscope and a barometer. Interestingly Samsung has included a\u00a0micro USB port which is capable of supporting MHL-HDMI for 1080p HDTV output. Battery life should be good with the 2,100 mAh Li-ion battery.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can\u00a0keep track of your loved ones just by glancing at your\n\nfriends\u2019 photos which will show you their current SNS status.\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy S3 is powered by Android 4.04 Ice Cream Sandwich, overlayed with Samsung's very own TouchWiz. The new user interface on Galaxy S3 has 4 beautiful nature themes. Once you tap on the lock-screen, you will hear the sound of water droplets and see the ripples bouncing off the edges of the display. I can't wait to see this stunning effects with my very own eyes. That aside, Samsung has incorporated a slew of Smart features into Galaxy S3. Let's find out:\n\nSmart Stay: The front-facing camera of Galaxy S3 will be used for face detection. With Smart Stay, the display backlight will be kept on whenever you\u2019re looking at the phone. That means no needing to repeatedly tap it if you\u2019re a slow reader, and the display will automatically turns off to save power when you look away.\n\n\n\n\n\nSmart Alert: By picking up Galaxy S3, it will make it gently vibrate if there are missed alerts, showing the new notifications on-screen automatically. So no more excuses for forgetting to reply messages or miss-calls!\n\n\n\n\n\nDirect Call: Wanna make a call? Just pick up the phone and it will automatically dial the on-screen contact in the Call App, SMS and Contacts. All you need to do is simply holding Galaxy S3 close to your ear. \u00a0So now it can even detect your ears? LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\nS-Voice: Clearly, Samsung is aiming directly at Apple's Siri. With S-Voice system, you can unlock the phone with a customizable verbal command. You can even ask Galaxy S3 to load apps, set calendar appointments for you, google searches or other tasks simply just by speaking to it. You can even say \u201cCheese!\u201d to start the camera. With S-Voice, you can skip, go back, play and pause any tracks while listening to your favourite songs. Damn!\n\n\n\n\nWill this be better than Siri?\n\n\nOf course there are tonnes of other features about Samsung Galaxy S3 that I won't be able to share in this post alone. But before I draw the curtains: I have another 2 surprises for those who wanna buy this brand new Galaxy S3. Each Samsung Galaxy S3 comes preloaded with 50GB of Dropbox free storage for two years; Samsung Galaxy S3 will be the first to get the new Android version of Flipboard which pulls in news, Twitter and other content with an easily-navigable interface!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA very poetic take of Samsung Galaxy S3. Watch. :)\n\n\n\nAre you impressed so far? I know I am.\u00a0No specific release dates have been released by Samsung, but European availability is expected from the end of May with North American sales shortly after. I believe Galaxy S3 will reach Malaysian shores at the beginning of the third quarter, probably around June or July. How about pricing? No recommended retail price by Big Sammy yet...but I believe Samsung Galaxy S3 will come with a premium price tag of RM2,099. What say you?\n\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy S3\nThe new Android Superphone!\n\n"} {"title": "Instagram Is IN For Android.

All this while I have always wanted a kick-ass powerful smartphone like Samsung Galaxy SII or its slightly bigger sibling-Galaxy Note. But now...I think Samsung Galaxy Beam is in the pole position to be my next ideal smartphone. Why? Because Samsung Galaxy Beam is both a smartphone and a projector. Simple as that. Have you heard of another smartphone with an integrated projector? Probably no right?\n\n\n\n\n\nAww...Samsung Galaxy Beam is so beautiful....\n\n\n\nI must say that the biggest selling point for Samsung Galaxy Beam is its projector. I couldn't believe my eyes when I read that Samsung has actually rolled out a projector phone last month. It's like a dream come true for me because I need to use the projector several times a week to carry out my presentations in front of my audience. Using a tablet to do presentation will not be suffice for a huge crowd. That's why I think Samsung Galaxy Beam's projector will be perfect for me as I don't need to power the bulky projector up, plug in the USB drive etc. All I need to do is turn on the projector on my smartphone and voila~I can start my presentation.\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is still so slim and sexy even with a projector in it.\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy Beam has a dual-core 1GHz processor under its hood, completed by 768MB of RAM. That is quite powerful already for my daily heavy usage. Galaxy Beam has a huge 4'inch 800x400, 5MP rear camera (with built-in flash) and 1.3MP front-facing camera. This smartphone is also equipped with ample storage with 8GB of internal memory expandable to 32GB using SDCard. So you don't have worry about running out of space of your photos, videos and most importantly powerpoint presentations. It is also worth mentioning that Galaxy Beam with be juiced by a huge 2000mAh battery pack. Awesome right?\n\n\n\n\nI love the\u00a0ergonomic\u00a0design.\n\n\n\n\nOf course the main reason for me to buy Samsung Galaxy Beam is its built-in projector right? What distinguishes Samsung Galaxy Beam from the other smartphone is its Ultra-Bright, 15-lumen projector. With Beam, you can project a 50-inch wide image, presentation or even video recordings onto the wall! Wow...it's like your portable movie player right?

I have been playing with it for months. Initially I was really excited to have something that millions wanted to touch...but then the joy fizzled out as I realized that my iPad 2 is a bit too huge and bulky for my little hands\u00a0after prolonged use. I am sure my daddy and wife are facing this nagging issue as well. That is why I wanna remind those who wanna buy a tablet: Make sure it is of the right size and weight!\n\n\n\n\n\nToo heavy...\n\n\n\nToo big for a baby like me?\n\n\n\nCannot be fitted into handbags?\n\n\n\n\nNowadays I bring my iPad around a lot as I use it to check my emails, keep in touch with my friends on Twitter and Facebook and more importantly to entertain myself with games. Hence...I find that my iPad 2 is a tad heavy to be carried around just by holding it. Hand it over to my wife and she will tell you that iPad 2 just won't fit into any her chic handbags. My daddy who likes to play games on the iPad 2 has also told me that he can't be playing it for too long.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is what we need?\n\nIt's too heavy! It's too big! It's too bulky! So what's the solution? We need something smaller, slimmer, sexier and definitely lighter! Introducing Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9-the perfect tablet for you and I! Let's compare Galaxy Tab 8.9 with the so-called best tablet in the market right now-Apple iPad 2.\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy Tab 8.9\n\n\n\n\n\n8 Reasons Why Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9\nis the best Tablet for you!\n\n\n\nFor starters Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 only weighs at 453grams compared to iPad 2 heavy weight of 607grams.

So form factor wise, Galaxy Tab triumphs!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNow let's see what's under the hood: (3*)\u00a0Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 is being powered by an amazing 1.5GHz dual-core processor while iPad 2 has only 1GHz of dual-core to show off. This means Galaxy Tab 8.9 is certainly way better at multitasking compared to iPad 2. So now more lagging while you play graphic-intense game! How about RAM then? Do you know that iPad 2 has only 512MB of RAM for your disposal whilst the smaller (4*)\u00a0Galaxy Tab 8.9 has a whopping 1GHz of RAM for your demanding need.

After all we don't like to see sour and angry faces in our lives right? But that is not the case with these birdie friends of ours. Apparently we enjoy watching how these Angry Birds run riot after their eggs were being \"pig-napped\" by those cute-looking green pigs. We even willingly devote our time to help these colourful Angry Birds to avenge their stolen eggs. Ha :D We were so crazy about Angry Birds that we have virtually everything with their faces onto it right?

The other one was snapped by the Green Pig. That means another 3 of those Angry Birds (Blue, Yellow and White) were being ignored and left in their nests. I bet they must be really angry right now, especially with the pig.

So all of us can easily relate to it. This speaker comes with a 3.5mm jack which is compatible with all music players. Besides that you will also get a special brown-coloured stand for your phone, music player or tablet. Meaning that this Red Bird Speaker will be compatible with other Android phones as well.

This Black Bird speaker will have dock that is compatible with all 3 devices from Apple: iPod, iPhone and Ipad. Like Helmet Pig, it has remote control for your convenient as well.

One year has gone and Apple has clearly seen its lead being trimmed tremendously. Now the already \"outdated\" iPhone will have to content with Samsung Galaxy SII! I don't think iPhone 5 which will be released next month can dethrone Samsung Galaxy S II.\n\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy S II\n\n\n\n\nDo you know that Samsung Galaxy S II managed to surpassed the 3 million units sold mark in just 55 days? Now let's do some maths here: At least one Samsung Galaxy S II (GSII)has been sold nearly every 1.5 seconds, which made us to 57,000 GSII being sold daily.\u00a0Wow! Hence it is now Samsung's quickest and best-selling smartphone to date. That speaks volume about the phone quality right? I believe no one can deny the fact the Samsung has been making better phones compared to Apple. Let us see why Samsung Galaxy S II is simply way better than iPhone shall we?\n\n\n\n\nSuper AMOLED Plus will blow you away!\n\n\nFor starters, the newest, sexiest incarnation of Samsung Galaxy S comes with Super AMOLED Plus. AMOLED Plus is claimed to enhance\u00a0readability\u00a0and improved battery life.\u00a0With its amazingly generous 4.3inch display, one can expect nothing but\u00a0unbelievable\u00a0multimedia richness from Samsung Galaxy S II. It seems that Samsung has really put this smartphone of theirs under rigorous exercise huh. Measuring at 125.3 x 66.1 x 8.49mm and weighing a mere 116g, it is easily the thinnest smartphone in its class. Throw in a full Gorilla Glass front panel and voila your Samsung Galaxy S II is now like your 43inch LCD TV. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\nExperience life in the fast lane with 1.2Ghz Dual-core processor.\n\nLG Optimus 2X was the world's first smartphone to showcase a dual-core processor. But it didn't take long for that claim to be thrown into the history book with several smartphones climbing up the shelves spotting the same \"old\" 1Ghz dual-core processor. Samsung Galaxy S II wanted to come out with a bang and its 1.2Ghz dual-core Exynos processor certainly didn't disappoint. Pair this 1.2Ghz dual-core processor with 1GB or RAM and 2GB of ROM, guess what you will get-insane, blistering, raw processing power. How about storage for your GSII? Well you can opt for either the 16GB internal storage or the 32GB internal storage. Still not enough? You can slot in your very own 32GB microSD then. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you know that Samsung Galaxy S II is actually capable of shooting FULL HD 1080p video at 30fps, which is really a rarity. So now you can capture all those priceless moment of your loved ones vividly. Samsung Galaxy S II boast a stunning 8MP camera complete with autofocus and LED flash. Flip the phone and you will see the 2MP camera sitting comfortably on the front panel, making videoconferencing and self-portrait\u00a0a snap! Having 2MP for a front camera is considered quite impressive as some smartphones have only a VGA camera to show.\n\n\n\n\nReaders Hub-You very own library in your pocket.\n\nDon't like to bring along your heavy, hardcover books? You forgot to bring your favourite magazines with your on your business trips? Worry not as Samsung Galaxy S II's Readers Hub is here to rescue the bookworm in you. Now you can leave your book shelves or library at home. With more than 2 million titles to choose from, you will be spoiled for choice.

This is what we call reading books beyond papers right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeamless connectivity.\n\nIt seems that Samsung Galaxy S II has been designed with seamless connectivity in mind. Now you can share virtually anything in your Samsung Galaxy S II with anyone or...any devices. Yep! With AllShare your Galaxy S II can be linked wirelessly to a laptop, TV or even an audio system which is DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) compatible.

Wait...IMHO, Samsung Galaxy S II is without a doubt the best smartphone right now.\u00a0I dare claim that no other smartphone can rival its sheer brilliance and raw power. I could only think of HTC Sense as a possible contender. Will iPhone 5 be able to match Samsung Galaxy S II? Let's wait for Apple to roll it our this September ok. All in all Samsung Galaxy S II has not only upped its own game, but at the same time it has upped the benchmark for all\u00a0existing\u00a0and future smartphones.\n\n\n\n\nMaxis Android Device presents Samsung Galaxy S II\n\nDon't you wish you can have this Samsung Galaxy S II huh! However this king of Android will not come cheap though. If you are a Malaysian (like me), be prepared to fork out RM2,099 if you wish to own this phenomenal Samsung Galaxy S II. However the good news is you can get it as low as RM1,399 if you are subscribing to Maxis Android Device Package.

After searching high and low for this elusive vibratable Casio watch, I can safely say that it is comfortably wrapping my left wrist. Locating for this dream watch of mine is never easy. Previously I have tried to find a vibratable Casio watch in local shops but I couldn't. So I used the internet to find see if I am lucky. Guess what? I did find the watch that I want...but to my dismay...Casio's online shop is not shipping anything to Malaysia! Why?\n\n\n\n\n\nThis watch is so \"shocking\" that only City Chain can afford to sell it.\n\nNot only Casio's Online Shop is not selling to Malaysians; other reputable online shops selling watches and time piece are also shutting their doors to the people in Malaysia. Why aren't \u00a0they going to ship their watches to Malaysia? So last week I decided to hunt for this rare vibratable Casio watch again in Jusco Aeon Bandaraya. I stepped into the first time piece shop. Their answer was NO; The second shop-NO; The third shop-NO. I felt kinda dejected by then. Then I found myself standing in front of City Chain. I unwillingly dragged my feet into the shop.\n\n\n\n\nThe last of its kind...at least in that shop.\n\nI looked around and saw hundreds of watches. I felt that I was in for another\u00a0disappointment. Reluctantly I pried open my big mouth and asked the salesgirl if the shop happen to have any vibratable Casio watch and I was expecting another NO. NO~I was wrong. She nodded and walked me to the front panel glass and showed me the elusive Casio Vibratable G-Shock watch that I have been looking for. She took the time piece out and demonstrated to me how vibratable this G-Shock is! Goodness...it was vibrating...and I was on cloud nine.\n\n\n\n\nBehold: My vibratable Casio G-Shock G-7510-1V!\n\n\n\"Thank you. I am going to take it!\" I told the delighted salesgirl. Then I looked at the price tag. It read RM406. Perhaps you can get it cheaper online right? It didn't matter at all. All I wanted was to get this vibratable Casio watch. I paid for the watch and hurriedly rode my back home. On my way back, I just couldn't contain my euphoria. I kept on smiling thinking about the watch wrapping my wrist later...Haha :D Now...may I present you arguably my most expensive dream watch ever-the Casio G-Shock G-7510-1V!\n\n\n\n\nSee? It is vibrating?\n\nI have always love watches from Casio. They cost a bit more but they are built to last forever (except for the batteries of course). I have had 2 Casio watches previously. One has been stolen and the other one had to make way for my latest Casio. Obviously \u00a0the main reason I wanted to buy Casio G-Shock G-7510-1V is because it is a vibratable watch! Now I am sure you are wondering, \"Why do you need a watch that vibrates right?\"\n\n\n\n\nAww...a robust watch fitting for a man like me. :p\n\nTo answer that question, you have to first know the problem that I had been facing until I have this watch. You see...I am sleeping in the same room with my wife and baby. Every morning I need to wake up earlier than both of them to prepare for work. What I used to do was to set my alarm using my Nokia E72. It has been an utter\u00a0nightmare\u00a0as my alarm would usually wake them up as well. Besides if I were to put my phone near me, the radiation would have disrupted my sleep. :( That is why I got myself this watch.\n\n\n\n\nBe original. Buy original Casio watch ok. :)\n\nSo now I can wake myself up with the help of my new vibratable Casio G-Shock watch. There are 3 individual alarm \"clocks\" and 1 snooze alarm which are really handy. Now I am sleeping with this watch every single night. LOL :D This watch does have the usual beeper alarms but at the touch of a button it will be instantly transformed to a vibrating wrist watch. Now I will get hourly signal without disturbing others. Moreover there is also auto-light switch that corresponds to your body movement.

I have a feeling that this Casio G-Shock will be my very last watch that will accompany me for at least another....62 years. Maybe you can still hear my watch vibrating while you shovel earth over my coffin. Haha :D\n"} {"title": "My Wife's Sony Ericsson Xperia X8", "body": "\nBesides our beloved little baby Jordan, I believe this new smartphone-Sony Ericsson Xperia X8, that I got for my wife on her birthday is the best gift I have ever bought for her so far. Ha :D I had a hard time trying to find the best phone for my wife. At first I wanted to convert my wife into a Nokia fan like me...but even the staunch Nokia-n in me know that Symbian and Ovi will not be of my wife's liking. Besides...most of the Nokia phones these days just don't really appeal to the mass anymore. I wonder why! *sob* :(\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife's pearly white Sony Ericsson Xperia X8.\n\n\n\n\nHonestly I was instantly awestruck the moment I laid my eyes on this pearly white Sony Ericsson Xperia X8. Not only this smartphone is chic, it is also very practical and easy to use. This 3-inch\u00a0touchscreen Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 allows you to entertain yourself and your loved ones via its multimedia prowess. My words alone are not suffice to describe this awesome little machine! However I can assure you that if you were to buy this phone you will not regret it. I would say that this Xperia X8 can offer almost everything that my Nokia E72\u00a0can...with a few limitations of course. Thinking of getting one for yourself? Read on:\n\n\n\n\n8 reasons you should get Sony Ericsson Xperia X8\n\n1~Gorgeous 3-inch touchscreen. I must say that my Nokia E72 screen cannot be compared to my wife's Xperia X8. The display is really crisp and brilliant if you ask me. So it is an utter joy to be playing Angry Birds RIO and watching youtube on this phone. My wife, baby and I enjoy viewing short clips with the video player. The sound clarity also adds dimensions to our viewing pleasure. Simply awesome!\n\n\n\n\n\n2~Make It Yours (Via the 4 Corners). Who says this virtually button-less touchscreen Xperia X8 is hard to be navigated? This smartphone allows you to customize the 4 different corners of the homescreen. So maybe you would want to put your messaging on the top left, youtube on the top right? Then for the bottom corners you might wanna house your phonebook and music player? The best part is...you can change them anytime you want. So everything important is within your fingertips with only one single hand.\n\n\n\n\n\n3~Timescape for Socialist! If you are a self-confessed social creature-that is you can never stop tweeting and stalk your friends and Facebook...then you will be very happy to know Sony Ericson has thrown in this nifty Timescape into this Xperia X8. You see timescape is like a funnel where all your SMS, calls, tweets, twitpics, Facebook updates come together. So it is like your very own all-in-one social app. I really love it!\n\n\n\n\n\n4~Android-licious Xperia-nce. One of the biggest advantage for owning Xperia X8, is the fact that you are a proud owner of Android. Having the world-renowned Android running under the hood of this Xperia X8 means you will have a lot of features in your grasps! With more than 100,000 applications in the Android Market at your disposal, be sure that you will have a lot of fun time entertaining yourself. I have personally enjoyed quite a number of games downloaded from Android Market for free. It's time to give your Xperia X8 its own unique personality.\n\n\n\n\n5~aGPS inside. With its built-in\u00a0assisted\u00a0GPS, you can now get to almost everywhere you want easily. So you will not lose yourself again as long as your Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 is in your hands (or pockets or handbags or whatever place). Guess what? You can even geo-tag the photos that you captured using your Sony Ericsson Xperia X8. So you will know where you snapped that photo of you eating that lollipop.\n\n\n\n\n\n6~Unlimited Connections.\u00a0A smartphone is not considered smart if its connections are limited right? So Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 has all the whistles and bells that you would have expected a smartphone to have. There are 3G, EDGE, Bluetooth and of course most importantly WIFI for you to stay connected to your virtual world. Ok...this Xperia X8 is not really limitless. You will be disappointed if you are a fan of infrared. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n7~Infinite Button. This is a relatively new feature for me. With a touch of this so-called infinite button, you can get more information about something that interests you. So far I am only able to see this infinite button struts its stuff in the music department. Yupe! While you are listening to...let say Jay Chou's Superman Can't Fly and you hit the infinite button...instantly more tracks of Jay Chou will be listed for you. So that is how this whole \"infinity\" theory works. Pretty cool if you ask me.\n\n\n\n\n\n8~Juicy Battery. One of the most important aspect to consider before you get yourself a smartphone is its battery. You smartphone isn't smart if it has a rather premature battery life. In other words you will have to recharge your phone very often after turning on the wifi, tune up the volume, surfing the net etc. I can safely say that Sony Ericsson Xperia X8's battery life is quite long due to the fact that it is powered by a 1450mAh Li-Po battery. Very, very juicy indeed.\n\n\n\nSo there you have it folks-the 8 reasons why you should get this Sony Ericsson Xperia X8. Beside that this smartphone has a 3.2 Megapixel camera which can brilliantly capture all those priceless moments in your lives.\u00a0Wanna know what else can this little baby here offer you?\u00a0For starters in has a built-in FM radio with RDS. Apart from that it also comes with a 3.5mm audio jack. This means you can plug in your very own favourite headphone while tuning to your favourite tunes. Are you ready to own an Xperia X8?\n\n\n\nThe nifty Timescape in Sony Ericsson Xperia X8\n\nI bought this original Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 as a birthday gift for my wife. It cost me around RM800 including an 8GB microSD memory card. Of course you can swap it with the maximum 16GB microSD if you want to. So for a smartphone with so much features I believe it is reasonably priced. IMHO Xperia X8 is one heck of an all-rounder smartphone. If you are social creature who needs to be connected all the time and yet want to enjoy all the finer things in life...but has a rather limited budget, then Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 is the perfect smartphone for you! My wife is loving this new phone of hers. So what say you?\n"} {"title": "Daddy's Samsung Digital Photo Frame", "body": "Have you guys figured out what was my father-in-law's birthday present?

Ladies and gentlemen...my latest accessories for my Nokia E72...behold-Nokia Mini Speaker MD9! Have you seen this cute little baby before? :p\n\nThis will be my Nokia E72's soul mate. :p\nOne of the main reasons why I love this mini speaker so much is because its colours (black and red) really match \u00a0the Melkco rubberized snap cover that I bought for my phone. So both my Nokia E72 and the mini speaker really dovetail (at least visually) when they are paired together. Of course this mini speaker is more than meet the eyes.

This means I can listen tune in to radio using my Nokia E72 with this speaker plugged in. However...this new gadget of mine does have one flaw. 2 AAA batteries are needed to power it up....but you get up to 50 hours of music playback. Fair enough? Do you know how much does this speaker cost me? I bought this original, genuine Nokia Mini Speaker MD9 for only RM59!\n\n\nA~hem!

And this translates too? Yes, you said it. Ultra-fast power drain...\n\nMy latest gadget-Capdase mPower Universal Battery Pack\nMy Nokia E72 comes with a huge battery...1500mah. Currently this capacity of battery is one of the highest for mobile phones\u00a0and it can last for almost a week on standby if I am not using it for any power-hungry applications.

To have the latest Olympus Pen E-PL1 on my cold prick hands will be a dream come true for me. I certainly hope I will be able to have this camera. Aww...I am so in love with Olympus Pen E-PL1 right now. So if you are like me, looking for a single camera that fits all (almost) types of photography needs, then Olympus' latest gem-Pen E-PL1 is the one you are looking for. It's a one size-fits-all camera that can fulfill your need for simple point-and-shoot camera and top-notch photo quality, granular controls and lens-swapping versatility of those fancy DSLR. So it is a compact camera with interchangeable lenses. A hybrid camera if you ask me. :p\nThe Golden Pen E-PL1\nYou get the best of both worlds with Olympus Pen E-PL1! Currently Olympus' Pen E-PL1 is the cheapest (correct at this writing time) and most beginner-friendly camera in the Micro Four-Thirds stable. It is more affordable compared to its older siblings but it is as feature-packed as the former plus it packs a few more nasty hot punches! It has a recommended retail price of RM2,499 ($755) in Malaysia. Expensive right? Find out how you can get $155 discount at the bottom of this post.\n\nOlympus hasn't really taken much of the shine away from E-PL1. The features of Pen E-PL1 are almost the same with Olympus previous Pen E-P2 although it is cheaper by almost $500. Huge difference in price tag but the the specs aren't radically different. Both cameras offer 12.3-megapixel CMOS sensors (about 0.7 by 0.5 inches), body-based image stabilization that works with any Micro Four-Thirds System lens, RAW+JPEG shooting, 720p HD video recording at 30 frames per second, manual shooting controls, auto mode, a hot shoe, in-camera editing features, and motion-tracking autofocus.\n\nThe physical changes of the latest Pen E-PL1 is that the Live View LCD display is smaller compared to Pen E-P2. However its brightness, visibility and viewing angle is far more superior, claimed Olympus. But the upside is you get notable additions of an awesome integrated pop-up flash and dedicated video-record button. The easy-to-reach red record button you can capture videos more easily and more spontaneously. And your E-PL1 also comes with the M Zuiko ED 14-42mm f/3.5/5.6 zoom lens.\n\nBut what really strike a chord in me is Pen E-PL1's iAuto and iEnhance Mode which is meant for beginners. With this camera, you don't have to know what are aperture settings and how it affects depth-of-field. Instead E-PL1 will ask you whether you want to blur the background or make it sharper. Guess what? You can even view this on the Live View LCD screen. How cool is that?Enough being said right? Check it out yourself at Olympus Pen E-PL1 official web to know how good it is. IMHO, Pen E-PL1 is by far the most affordable camera in its class and it comes in 3 different colours (white, gold or black). Do you know that it you can get Olympus E-PL1 for only RM1988 ($600) from Amazon? That's a HUGE price difference from the RRP in Malaysia right?

Yotaro giggles and will wriggle his feet when you shake its rattle, but if you tickle him too much Yotaro will cry and get really cranky. Meet Yotaro, an interactive baby-bot which is programmed to be as skittish as a real baby. It is created in the Uchiyama Lab at Japan's University of Tsubaka and Yotaro is actually meant to be baby simulator for would be parents and older siblings. Sounds like a good \"hands on\" practice? :)A good practice for brother-to-be. :)Yotaro has a chubby face with a pair of rather unearthly looking luminous blue eyes. It is hoped that Yotaro can teach the Japanese the pleasures of parenting as Japan is facing demographic crisis. Hiroki Kunimura of Tsukuba University's robotics and behavioral sciences lab said that Yotaro is a special robot which we can experience physical contact just like with a real baby and reproduce the same feelings towards him. Hmm...is it possible? :/Look at those eyes and his HUGE face. :pYotaro's cute face is made of translucent silicon with a rosy hue and it is backlited by a projector connected to a computer to simulate crying, sneezing, sleeping and smiling while a speaker is fitted to enable Yotaro to giggle. Do you know that Yotaro can also changes its facial expressions and moves it arms and legs when we touch different parts of his face and body. All the physical contacts can be detected by sensors which will then trigger different reaction for Yotaro. Awww....I so wanna touch Yotaro right now. :)Yotaro is crying!Yotaro can also simulates a runny nose with the help of a water pump that releases body-temperature droplets of water. And yes, Yotaro can also cry you a river if you make him to. As cool as it may sound, Yotaro is just a concept for now, it is not a standalone robot yet. Hence an extensive set of devices must be attached for him to perform all his baby-like antics, expressions and reactions.Yikes! Those are Yotaro's \"hands\"?Why Yotaro is not a STANDALONE robot yet? The computer that controls Yotaro's changing facial expressions is actually external, whilst the water that serves as the Yotaro's tears is stored in a separate tank, and the sensors direct Yotaro's emotional responses (tickling Yotaro's belly, for example, results in it wiggling its motorized legs under the blanket). Then there is also a projector under the bed that projects the appropriate countenance upward onto Yotaro's 2D face, while a speaker offers up the right baby sounds.Ouh...so this is what Yotaro is made of aye.So is Yotaro cute? If you plan to conceive a baby, perhaps this can give you a rough idea what you can expect from your future little angel. Then again it is still a toy right?

So today we are going to talk about one of the hottest toys during the last Christmas. I'm sure Santa received a lot of gift-wish orders for this toy. Are you ready to use your mind? I give you folks Mattel's Mindflex.Here's the hottest game last Noel!After you have slotted the 8 required batteries (4 Cs for the base and another 3 AAAs for the headset), you can attach the soft alligator clip to your earlobes and slip the headband over your forehead. Wow! Sounds like a pretty nifty game. Voila~now you are officially \"wire\" to to play the game. Then Mindflex's built-in microprocessor can start detecting your electrical resistance or galvanic skin response.One ball to rule them all!Here's something interesting: Do you know that the galvanic skin response used is the same as the current used in standard lie detectors? Meaning that now you can train your mind to lie to a lie detector? Haha :D The microprocessor then amplifies the variable current, which is hard-wired to a tiny fan.Is your mind strong enough?Your response (a~lar, galvanic skin thingy) level will determine how high or low a foam ball will hover in the air. So if your mind is weak, it might not hover at all. Hahaha :D When you relax, the tiny will fan will slow down and hence the ball will drop. Likewise if you are intense the ball might shoot up and hit the ceiling. The illusion is that you are actually controlling the ball with your mind, which is true in a way.How do you wanna play with your ball?There are 5 different games in total. A maximum of 4 people can play this game and there are 3 levels for you to choose from. And there are more than 100 obstacles combinations for you to toy around. Sounds like a lot of fun to me. Besides, I don't think this will be an easy game to complete. :pGet this Mindflex if you wanna be smarter. Ha :D I'm sure if will make you sharper one or another. Likewise if you are a spy wannabe, this toy might help you to beat the lie detector. Ha :D Or if you aspire to be a mind controlling psychic, Mindflex sounds like the thing that can jump start you. :p ~First Commenter~"} {"title": "Colourful Samsung Corby", "body": "Samsung is certainly catching up fast with Nokia.

It is so good that my family and I decided to return for our second staycation in this luxurious 5-star hotel. Read our Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room review to find out why this is the ultimate staycation for a family who needs comfortable, opulent space for you to rest and relax.Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room ReviewJust when I thought that Sheraton PJ Hotel could no longer surprise me anymore, I was astonished to know that they had upgraded my rooms to Club Room. It is not only way bigger and more spacious, but also comes with Sheraton PJ Club Longue access \ud83d\ude01 (more on this later). Honestly, we totally did not expect this at all!We first stayed at Sheraton PJ Hotel two years ago in the same room. However, both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl have really grown up so much. So they require extra space when they sleep. We could no longer cram everyone in the same bed. LOL \ud83d\ude02 Luckily, Sheraton PJ Hotel is currently running this promotion whereby parents and their children get to stay in adjacent rooms, side-by-side (subject to availability).Sheraton PJ Hotel Deluxe King Club Lounge Access RoomNow let's get back to our rooms, shall we?\u00a0There are altogether 253 contemporary rooms and suites in this palatial 5-star hotel. In our previous stay, our Deluxe King Room was already very huge and spacious and these upgraded rooms with Club Longue access are even bigger. We had two rooms which are almost identical but differed in terms of mattress(es) available.Sheraton PJ Hotel Deluxe Twin Club Lounge Access RoomMy wife and I had the room with King size mattress while Jordan and Jasmine had the room next door with the twin double beds. As expected of Sheraton PJ Hotel, the decorations inside are as grand as ever. We couldn't help but feel the rooms are super cozy thanks to the brilliant selection of materials, furniture, bedding, and lighting.\u00a0The whole ambiance inside the rooms was very soothing. Certainly, world-class interior designers have worked their magic on these rooms.Our Sheraton PJ Hotel BathroomI am not going to lie that we all love to take our showers and baths in this hotel. We (especially the kids) were really eager to relish the latest premium Le Grand Bain bath amenities that were created especially for Sheraton PJ Hotel! The retractable blinder of the bathroom allowed us to dip in the posh bathtub and watch TV at the same time.\u00a0The bathroom is equally big with a separate room for the shower and a bathtub. Ladies and girls will appreciate the magnifying mirror with LED.Retractable Blinder To Our See-through BathroomWe also truly enjoyed our 2 nights of staycation in the Sheraton PJ Hotel. Thanks to Sheraton Signature Sleep Experience, the mattress had this mystifying hypnotic magic to lull us to sleep instantaneously. I guess it can't be helped thanks to the cushy pillows, comfortable duvet, crisp linens, and of course, the huge plush mattress. It felt like the mattress could melt all our exhaustion and anxiety (if any) away and allowed us to wake up feeling invigorated.Sheraton Signature Sleep ExperienceIt is a shame to say that I still needed to work while on vacation and thankfully, there is a huge wooden table for me in our Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room. I appreciate the provided workstation complete with a table lamp and super high-speed Internet access. I felt glad that I could still do some work while enjoying our holidays, away from home.Workstation at Sheraton PJ HotelThere is a mini fridge for you to chill your beverages or food. We also got to enjoy premium coffee and tea (on the house). There is also a safe for you to store your important belongings just in case you need to be away from your room but I did not use it since I felt perfectly safe to lay my stuff in the room. Other common amenities include a hairdryer, ironing board plus iron, and a shaver just to name a few. in other words, you will have everything you need here.Facilities at Sheraton PJ HotelAs I have aforementioned, both our Club Rooms in Sheraton PJ Hotel allow us to have access to the by-invitation-only space Sheraton Club Lounge. So every day, starting from 6pm until 9pm hotel guests with club lounge access will get to enjoy unlimited food, snacks, and desserts plus free-flow of beverages which include whisky, red wine, and beer just to name a few. Nothing beats enjoying premium wine while basking in the ambiance of ritzy decor overlooking the surrounding areas through the window walls (floor-to-ceiling windows). This is a luxurious experience like no other for sure!Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Lounge AccessAll in all, my family and I are super impressed with our\u00a0Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Rooms. It is still one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in for our holidays. It is incredulous that we stayed in the hotel the whole time (3 days) without leaving it as we had so much to enjoy from the glorious food to the relaxing swimming time that we had.

It is always good to have some time to unwind after work.The 3 Swimming Pools at Bayview Hotel MelakaI love where the swimming pool is located, with its open space allowing you to have a panoramic look around the beautiful historical state of Melaka. There is also a dedicated children's pool which the kids did have an enjoyable, short brief time before jumping into a bigger pool. We truly enjoyed our swim more so since it was evening time with no scorching sun to spoil our wet, fun hour. Tilting our heads up, we were blessed to be able to enjoy the beautiful clear blue sky with adorable clouds.We Had a Splashing Time IndeedHope to return soon!Interestingly, there is an outdoor hot tub for you to dip in. You don't get to see this in every hotel though. Nothing beats soaking yourself in the jacuzzi to melt away all your worries and problems, right? If you plan to visit Bayview Hotel Melaka for your staycation, make sure to make good use of the pool to have a splashing time."} {"title": "Dinner At Southern Court Chinese Restaurant of Bayview Hotel Melaka", "body": "If you are looking for a hotel in Melaka that can serve you lip-smacking food, then you really need to book your stay at Bayview Hotel Melaka. Instead of going to a nearby eatery for our dinner, we decided to to dine inside the hotel itself. After reading countless glowing reviews about the scrumptious food being served in Southern Court Chinese Restaurant, my wife suggested that we give it a try. It turned out to be a wise choice for our tummies indeed.Dinner At Southern Court Chinese Restaurant of Bayview Hotel MelakaFor the uninitiated, the Southern Court Chinese Restaurant in Bayview Hotel Melaka serves authentic Szechuan and Cantonese cuisines. That's right! So if you are craving genuine Szechuan and Cantonese dishes in Melaka, you really need to head over to this famous restaurant. It had been a while since we last dined in a restaurant which dishes out oriental food. We were there quite early after our swimming sessions, making us extremely hungry. I am sure this lovely restaurant is included in the top list of online ordering for restaurants in Melaka.Southern Court Chinese Restaurant follows the required SOPNo meal will be complete without coffeeUpon arrival, we were immediately in awe of the restaurant's classic and yet luxurious decorations. The courteous waiter immediately ushered us to our preferred table and even handed each of us a plastic packet to store our mask. All in all we ordered 5 different dishes to savour. I must say that the intricate wood carvings and the whimsical Chinese instrumental music in the Southern Court Chinese Restaurant really set us in the mood for our dinner. Yours truly me loved the sight of the traditional wooden chairs which made me reminisce about the good old days in my late grandmother's house.\u00a0Shark \"fin\" soup was our appetizerAs we were one of the earliest patrons in Southern Court Chinese Restaurant, the chef could attend to us first and in no time, our\u00a0 mouth-watering dinner was served. It pays to be early. \ud83d\ude04 First to land on our dining table was a huge bowl of \"Shark Fin Soup\". Ok! Do not be alarmed. No sharks were finned and harmed to prepare this delicacy. Instead we were served the so-called artificial (or imitation) shark fin soup as appetizer. I could not tell how close it tasted compared to the real shark fin soup as I have not had any for decades. Still, the scrumptious broth together with the ingredients inside really whetted our appetite.Up next was mixed vegetables with tofu. Though the dish might look simple, I love how flavourful it was together with the thick, savory sauce which really went well with our white rice. Another plate of stir-fried mixed vegetables was next on our list. The combination of long beans, ladies fingers, onions, brinjal and sliced chili was really bursting with flavours in my mouth. I could vividly scent the unmistakable Wok Hei fragrance in the dish which brought back fond memories of home-cooked food by my old folks.The fried chickens were crispy on the outside and succulent on the insideJordan and Jasmine really got excited when they saw the next platter on the table-fried chickens. Obviously these deep-fried chickens were so irresistibly enticing for both of them. I guess no one could fend of the temptation of well-marinated chicken deep-fried to golden crisp perfection right? They were really delectable; Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The moment you sink your teeth into these succulent fried chickens, you could not help but want more! Yes~it will be that insatiable!Chili Crab with mantouLast but not least was the highlight of our dinner at Southern Court Chinese Restaurant. In fact I insisted that we try this cuisine which was highly recommended. Introducing the exquisite Chili Crab with Mantou. Honestly I had never sampled anything quite like this. The luscious chili-coated crab meat together with the distinctive mantou was really rich and scrumptious.\u00a0OMG! This dish was really lip -smacking! It was so good that I almost ordered another one. I am glad that we did try this signature dish of Chef Sum.Let's enjoy our feast at\u00a0Southern Court Chinese RestaurantAll in all, we had a feast at this renowned Southern Court Chinese Restaurant. So if you are staying in Bayview Hotel Melaka, I highly recommend that you pay their in-house Chinese restaurant a visit and try their authentic Szechuan and Cantonese dishes. And don't forget the Chili Crab with Mantou. LOL \ud83d\ude01 It is definitely one of the best rated Halal Chinese restaurants in Melaka.

I guess those who were staying in this luxurious hotel would rather be in bed rather than sweating right? That's really good as I could ave the gym all to myself (literally). Out of all the gym equipment, my favourite was of course the cutting-edge treadmill. It was the most state-of-the-art treadmill I have even run on in my life with advanced control panel and a huge LCD screen for me cuztomize my exercise.

After doing a few laps, I chilled in one of the loungers while taking in the magnificent scenery for one last time.

Once we have settled down, off we went to grab our empty plates. \ud83d\ude01\n\n\n\n\nBreakfast Buffet at Sheraton PJ is one of the best in KL and PJ\n\n\n\n\nWhat bread would you like?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDonuts and croissants\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nGlutten-free cakes~how thoughtful\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Cereals for the kids or maybe you \ud83d\ude04\n\n\n\n\n\nBread pudding which was surprisingly good\n\n\n\n\nSince we were having breakfast, you could expect an assortment of breads that you would not even know where to start digging. There were also around 10 jars of spread for you to smack on your breads ranging from jam to honey. I think Feast @ Sheraton PJ was really courteous and thoughtful as they even prepared gluten-free options for those who need it. There were also lots of colourful donuts and different choices of croissants for you to savour. Kids will love the various cereals in jars along with a plethora of dried fruits and nuts. Interestingly the restaurant also provided hot oatmeal and bread pudding\u00a0which was made from stale bread, milk and egg.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChinese Fried Rice,\u00a0 Mee Mamak and Nasi Lemak\n\n\n\n\n\nHow about a bowl of Noodles?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow do you like your eggs?\n\n\n\n\nFor those who prefer heavier meals for their breakfast there were other oriental stalls with familiar local cuisines that they would make them happy such as Chinese Fried Rice, Mee Mamak and of course Nasi Lemak. Top them up with onion sambal, tomato chicken, prawn curry and usual condiments for Nasi Lemak. Want to try something else? You can also choose from Steamed Japanese Rice, Miso Soup and Salt-baked Saba Macarel just to name a few. Those who wish to grab a few spoons of noodles can head over to the noodles station. The egg station is a heaven for egg lovers there were just so many different versions of eggs for you to try. Do you want omelette, scrambled egg or poached egg?\n\n\n\n\n\nCongee with its various condiments\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWe Asians love dim sum\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoy 5 different cheese for your breakfast at Sheraton PJ\n\n\n\nWant something lighter for your breakfast? How about Chicken congee or maybe just plain congee. Of course you could spice your porridge up with the available condiments. There were also dim sum and local kuih for those who prefer traditional fix for their breakfast. If you want something crunchy and cheesy at the same time, grab a few cookies and spread them with the 5 different cheeses available. There were Cheddar Cheese, Edam Cheese, Blue Cheese, Emmental Cheese and Camembert Cheese for you to choose from. It was quite an exotic display of cheese if you ask me. After all, it is not like every day you will get to taste 5 different cheese at one go right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor those who love salads\n\n\n\n\nHealth conscious diners could choose to fill up their hungry stomachs with salads and spice things up with the other special condiments that were just beside their leafy greens. Unfortunately I am not really into vegetables. Yours truly me prefer meatier breakfast such as chicken ham, smoked duck slices, smoked salmon and lots of sausages of course. I must say that the smoked duck slices were to die for-every bite was so sinfully delicious, succulent and flavourful. I couldn't get enough of the smoke duck slices which melted in my mouth. Awww....\ud83d\ude18\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChicken hams, smoked duck slices and smoke salmons *drooling*\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at how happy Jasmine girl was\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHow can get enough of sausages?\n\n\n\n\nHow about desserts for breakfast buffet at Sheraton PJ? You will be delighted to know that you can indulge in yoghurt and premium quality ice cream. On top of that, there were also fresh fruits and jelly to sweeten your already awesome breakfast at Sheraton PJ. As for beverages, you can get unlimited cups of Teh Tarik and Nescafe Tarik. Of course you could also craft your own cappuccino of latte with the coffee machine available.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's have desserts and coffee now!\n\n\n\n\n\nChilled delights-yoghurt and ice cream\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Fruits\n\n\n\n\nTeh Tarik or Nescafe Tarik?\n\n\n\n\nIf you are looking for a hotel stay in PJ or KL with fantastic breakfast buffet spread, then you definitely need to consider Sheraton PJ Hotel. At Feast, my family and I really had an unforgettable breakfast that we could not get enough of. It is a shame that we only have one stomach to enjoy the glorious food. I am looking forward to trying Sheraton PJ buffet lunch and buffet dinner as well. Judging by our dining experience at Yue (Cantonese Luncheon), Miyabi (Omakase Dining) and now breakfast buffet at Feast, I am sure their luncheon and dinner will be equally amazing.\n\n\n\nBreakfast Buffet at Sheraton PJ offers glorious spread for your family\n\n\n\n\nWhen my family is happy, it is priceless.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nChicken ham and sausages!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDonuts, kuih and roti canai\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0My wife gave her nod of approval for this breakfast buffet at Sheraton PJ\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy enjoying his chawanmushi\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen you are too full and yet you can't stop eating because the food is too damn good!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's dig in!\n\nFeast at Sheraton Petaling Jaya\n\nAddress:\u00a0Level 3A, Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel, Jalan Utara C, 46200 Petaling Jaya, Selangor.\n\nBusiness hours:\u00a012PM \u2013 2.30PM (lunch), 6.30PM \u2013 10.30PM (dinner)\n\nWebsite:\u00a0https://www.marriott.com/hotels/hotel-information/restaurant/\n\nContact Number:\u00a0+603-7622 8888\n\n"} {"title": "Miyabi Sheraton PJ-Omakase at Its Best", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nI have always heard how amazing the Omakase is at Miyabi Sheraton Petaling Jaya. My scrumptious luncheon at Yue at Sheraton PJ tells me that this Japanese restaurant will be even better!\u00a0\u00a0After trying their Omakase prepared exclusively by their Japanese chef-Mr. Tetsuya Yanagida, I must admit that this is the best Omakase I have ever savoured in my life! So if you are looking for one of the best Japanese restaurants in PJ, then you really need to head over to Miyabi Sheraton PJ. This upscale Japanese restaurant serves the usual multi-course\u00a0kaiseki (\u61d0\u77f3) such as Sushi, Sashimi and Teppanyaki just to name a few.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan you feel the zen vibe emanated by the decor at Miyabi Sheraton PJ?\n\n\n\n\n\nSushi bar and live cooking station\n\n\n\n\nAlternatively you could choose Omakase dining experience at Miyabi Sheraton PJ. What is Omakase? Simply put, Omakase means \"I will leave it to you (the chef)\" to decide what Japanese food to cook, prepare and serve. In other words, the chef's creativity and culinary skills will come into play as he prepares the sushi. Hence I was really honoured that Chef Tetsuya Yanagida personally served me with his award-winning Omakase Sushi! It is not like everyday that you will be served fresh Sushi by a Japanese chef right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida will be preparing my authentic Omakase\n\n\n\nWhile waiting for my dinner I happily made myself at home in Miyabi Sheraton PJ. For the uninitiated, \"Miyabi\" means elegance and that is really evident in the opulent and yet cozy decorations of the restaurant.\u00a0I love the zen vibe that this restaurant exudes with minimalist design complemented by clean lines, natural stones and lots of woods. From the arrangement of the plates and cutlery to the well-folded napkins; Everything in Miyabi looks immaculately divine. For a moment, it feels like you are actually in Japan!\n\n\n\n\nCan't wait to see the chef showcasing his culinary skills\n\n\n\n\nWhile I was admiring the rich decor, I heard someone calling, \"Chris San!\" I turned around and there he was, holding my first plate of authentic Japanese cuisine for that night. Chef Tetsuya Yanagida presented my appetizer-Asparagus Goma-ae which was a quick green snack to get me started on my Omakase journey for the evening. The boiled asparagus which was coated with premium sesame sauce was really fresh and crispy. Who would have thought that vegetables could be this appealing to my palate huh! Besides some green goodness, my appetizer also consisted of the\u00a0mystifying Tatami Iwashi (dried Japanese baby sardines sheet)\u00a0which I actually had a second look. It was rather interesting to marvel at the intricate mesh of baby sardines intertwining to form a piece of art-like kite. The texture was crunchy and piquant. Dipping it into the sesame sauce and you will get a whole different sensation in your mouth.\n\n\n\n\nAsparagus Goma-ae (Boiled asparagus with sesame sauce)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTatami Iwashi (Dried Japanese Baby Sardine Sheet)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy next platter was the\u00a0exquisite Sashimi consisting of luscious Kanpachi, Toro, Hokkaido hotate and Fuedai. I am flattered to be served by exceptional quality sashimi that were made of amberjack, tuna, scallop and red snapper. The sashimi were unbelievably fresh and savory. Every single bite felt so rich and creamy, bursting with the sashimi's very own original flavour. Honestly speaking, I had ever never tasted sashimi as fresh as the ones in Miyabi thanks to its weekly sashimi shipment. Add a bit of freshly ground wasabi to your sashimi and your taste buds will be dancing in delight! This sashimi platter is highly recommended and it will surely give you that orgasmic\u00a0ASMR sensation!\n\n\n\n\n\nIt felt so good to have a Japanese chef preparing your Omakase\n\n\n\n\n\nKanpachi, Toro, Hokkaido Hotate, Fuedai Sashimi\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFreshly ground wasabi\n\n\n\n\nJapanese Clear Soup\n\n\nAfter enjoying my Sashimi, Chef Yanagida prepared a bowl of Japanese Clear Soup to help me get ready for my next Agemono dish. Introducing Avocado Sakura-ebi Kaki-age tempura which is a fusion between Avocado and Sakura baby shrimp. Dipping this battered and deep fried mashed avocado and cherry blossom really gave me that tingling sensation in my mouth. Despite being coated by a layer of batter, I could still taste the unmistakable buttery texture of the rich and nutty avocado. The sakura baby shrimp used in the tempura really added a different layer of savory aftertaste which made this Agemono really unique.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAvocado Sakura-ebi Kaki-age Tempura\n\n\n\nFusion between avocado and Sakura baby shrimp\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida then continued to prepare my Yakimono platter while I was admiring him strutting his stuff right before my eyes. The next that I got to delight in was the Grilled Ikejime Barramundi with Kyoto Miso. This grilled big eye tuna belly with sea salt was not only very presentable, but also very titillating. It was well-seasoned and grilled to perfection, with the juice of the fish still masterfully locked inside the dainty tuna fillet. I wouldn't mind having a few more servings.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrilled Ikejime Barramundi with Kyoto Miso\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe highlight of my Omakase dining at Miyabi Sheraton PJ has got to be this showstopper-Nigiri assortment. Behold my amazing Nigiri Sushi dishes with slices of fresh Kanpachi (Amberjack), Big eye tuna belly, Chutoro tuna belly, sweet Amaebi (prawn) and Mizu-dako (Octopus). When Chef Yanagida presented my Nigiri Sushi to me, I laid it on the table and was actually awestruck by what I would be indulging in. It was not like every day I could savour such sumptuously divine Nigiri Sushi right? Every grain of the vinegary pearl rice really complemented the freshness and sweet aroma of the sashimi. They were really creamy, rich and smooth! Add some wasabi and soy sauce and you would get a whole different experience in your mouth. Goodness!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida presenting the highlight of my Omakase at Miyabi Sheraton PJ\n\n\n\n\n\nNigiri Kanpachi, Toro, Amaebi & Mizu-dako\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhich one of these Nigiri Sushi will you try first?\n\n\n\nJust when I thought that my Nigiri platter was (supposedly) the last of my luxurious main course for the day, the affectionate Chef Yanagida surprised me with yet another sushi! He handed a Chopped bluefin tuna belly with leek hand roll sushi to a gleeful me *Yay!*. Well! One can never get enough of sinfully tempting authentic Japanese food right? Now I know why sushi lovers swear by bluefin tuna and vinegar pearl rice. I felt like a child again being able to eat this hand roll sushi.\n\n\n\n\nChopped Bluefin Tuna Belly With Leek Hand Roll Sushi\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDessert: Chitose Strawberry Cake & Fruit\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvery great gastronomical journey will have an equally awesome ending. The fitting unforgettable epilogue of my breathtaking Omakase dining experience in Miyabi Sheraton PJ was the heavenly\u00a0 Chitose Strawberry cake and fruits. This plate of nectarious dessert really put an icing on the already incredible omakase dining experience at Miyabi Sheraton PJ! Out of the sudden, Chef Yanagi appeared right before me and gave me a few Sushi Gummy Lollipops for my children. He knew that my kids could not tag along and hence wanted me to pass these candies to my them. Top notch hospitality and unbelievable courtesy from this Japanese chef! Another brownie point for sure.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida was very warm, funny and generous!\n\n\n\n\n\nI had hot green tea and Cappuccino but nothing beats...\n\n\n\n\nWhile I was enjoying my Omakase Sushi, I also ordered a bottle of artisanal Miyabi sake (rice wine). Served hot, every sip of this Miyabi sake was alluring. I particularly loved its sweet, refreshing scent with a hint of bitterness which really complemented its crisp aftertaste. An attentive waiter was constantly helping me to reheat my sake so that it would always be at the right temperature when I wanted my next sip. Hence, I highly recommend drinking sake while you are enjoying your Omakase sushi in Miyabi Sheraton PJ. It will really elevate your whole dining experience while you bask in its ethereal ambiance. Perhaps the sake made me tipsy a little bit. \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy hot bottle of artisanal Miyabi sake\n\n\n\n\nI think I am a bit tipsy now...\n\n\n\n\nSake really made all my sushi taste better!\n\n\n\nAll in all my Omakase dining in Miyabi Sheraton PJ was truly a feast fit for a King and an experience that I would never ever forget. Again I want to thank the meticulous Chef Tetsuya Yanagida for preparing such astonishing Omakase sushi for me. It was a luxurious treat indeed and it was worth every single dime. If you are looking for one of the best Omakase Sushi dining experiences in PJ, then you really need to head over to Miyabi Sheraton PJ. Rest assured that only the finest, premium ingredients will be used to serve those mouth-watering Sashimi, Nigiri, Tempura and Yakinomo cuisines that you have been craving for.

We were ushered into a huge special private dining room to enjoy our luncheon. Everything in the restaurant has been immaculately planned right from the elegant oriental decorations to the beautiful city views. There is an LCD TV if you want to watch something or probably for your karaoke session. The walls of this private dining room have been well sound-proofed for you to enjoy your chic-chatting or boisterous peals of laughter.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter hours of travelling, we are glad to be greeted by the warm and friendly waiter who handed us the menu. Honestly there were so many cuisines to choose from at Yue Sheraton Petaling Jaya. After much consideration and flipping of pages, we eventually chose Yue's 5-course Cherry Blossom Set Menu. We cheerfully basked in the cozy zen ambiance of the restaurant. The whole atmosphere was so pleasant thanks to its traditional music playing at the back which truly complemented the rich Chinese decorations in our dining room.\n\n\n\n\nChef's Special double boiled Chinese herbal soup served in a teapot!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe first cuisine from our to be served was the highly rated Chef's Special double boiled Chinese herbal soup served in a teapot! We were delighted to find a huge luscious abalone together with tender black chicken and aromatic cordyceps flower. The broth was so thick and fragrant, making it very flavourful and scrumptious. My wife and daughter really enjoyed this exquisite nourishing dish that really whetted their appetite. This is one of the must-try cuisine in Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya. I am glad that I ordered two sets of it.\n\n\n\n\nImperial Smoked Duck wrapped in egg pancake and Peking Sauce\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur next dish was the delightful Imperial Smoked Duck wrapped in egg pancake and Peking Sauce!

I wish I could have more!\n\n\n\n\nBaked cod fish topped with wasabi and chef's special sauce\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you are someone who prefer seafood, then you will relish the baked cod fish topped with wasabi and chef's special sauce. The baked cod fish was cooked to perfection. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I could have sworn that the meat of cod fish was unbelievably creamy and smooth in my gaping mouth. The chef's special sauce made all the difference with a hint of zest and tempting zing. Of course we enjoyed the mushrooms and snappy asparagus as well.\n\n\n\n\nFried rice with egg white and crispy scallops\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fried rice is certainly \"more than meets the eye\"\n\n\n\nAs the saying goes no Chinese banquet is complete without the presence of rice right? Our next dish was fried rice with egg white and crispy scallops. Every grain of the rice was mellow and fragrant the way it should be.

Read on to find out more.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile waiting to check in\n\n\n\nOne of the first things that I want to highlight about The Nomad Serviced Residences Bangsar is the fact that it is located strategically near the city center such as the famous MidValley Megamall. Despite the close proximity, it is actually away from the hustle and bustle of the traffic and noises. Hence I really appreciate the morning tranquility and of course the fresh invigorating air that perked up my day. Two thumbs up. \ud83d\udc4d\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to our Premier 2 Bedroom Suite\n\n\n\nThe moment we arrived at our seemingly secluded destination, we knew that this was the ideal staycation for us to relax and recharge. After being cleared by the security, we could easily find a parking lot and headed towards the lobby to check in. Warmly, we were greeted by the extremely helpful receptionist who made us feel at ease. She meticulously explained everything that we needed to know. This is really what we call customer service at its best. Yours truly me particularly loved the ambiance at the lobby-the marble finish and classy decor-everything made me feel so good. I'm sure the suite that we had booked would be even better, right?\n\n\n\n\n\nThe master bedroom\n\n\n\nAfter we had checked in, the potter led us to our Premier 2 Bedroom Suite. Once we pushed the door open, I must say that all of us were utterly awestruck by heavenly lodging. Everything in our Premier 2-Bedroom Suite suite felt so luxurious and the ample space really made me feel like I was right at home. My wife and two rambunctious kiddos were really excited that we got to stay in this incredible serviced residences. For a moment, we really thought that we were staying in a 5-star presidential hotel room.\n\n\n\n\nThe king-size bed is really, really huge \ud83d\ude04\n\n\n\nIn the master bedroom, the plush, ultra-comfortable king-size mattress was truly a joy for me and my wife \ud83d\ude0d *a~hem*. We really had a good night's sleep. The wooden floor finishing and the opulent drapes really ignited that pleasant sensations in us. In some ways, it felt romantic to be lying in the bed with my wife. Ha \ud83d\ude18 Apart from that what I really love about The Nomad Serviced Residences Bangsar is their unbelievable en-suite bathroom which is really, really grandiose. The granite finishing oozes so much class and luxury; The huge pure white sink adds to the splendor of the whole bathroom and the magnifying mirror with lights is my wife's favourite. I mean we can actually judge how good a place is based on the bathroom, no?\n\n\n\n\n\nSpacious room to move around\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI really, really love the bathroom\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMakes me wanna stay inside and just stop and stare \ud83d\ude1c\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0It is shower time\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0There is a magnifying mirror with lights\n\n\n\n\n\nObviously my wife is loving the special mirror \ud83d\ude19\n\n\n\nThe next bedroom was equally good for Jordan boy and Jasmine girl. Fitted with 2 single beds and an exact replica of the en-suite bathroom in the master bedroom, our two little ones really enjoyed themselves while taking turns to have their blissful shower. They also had a few jumps on their very own individual delightful mattress. Indeed they felt right at home.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe second bedroom with two single beds for the kids\n\n\n\nSpeaking about home, all the suites at this marvelous serviced residences are fully equipped with complete set of kitchenette. In other words you can cook and enjoy your meals with your loved ones right in the comfort of your stay. You will get an electric stove with hood, microwave, toaster, water boiler, refrigerator, crockery and cutlery for you to feel right at home. I am impressed as my family does not own any microwave \ud83d\ude0b so if you don't feel like going out to have your meals, you can just grab a few ingredients and cook till your heart's content.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Full kitchenette\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Electric stove\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Microwave\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Toaster\n\n\n\n\n\nReady to cook something?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nCold storage\n\n\n\nMy family and I felt so at ease staying in the Nomad Bangsar as it has a spacious separate living area for us to enjoy watching TV instead of being crammed in a single room (think hotel). The dining area is also another added luxury as we got to enjoy our meals after we had prepared them. I mean basically we had a lot of space for us to do so much. While my wife was preparing breakfast for us, my kids were enjoying cartoons and I was busy working on my laptop using the complimentary Wi-Fi. You see this is something that we could hardly do in the usual hotels. Don't you agree that staying in such a divine accommodation is truly gratifying?\n\n\n\n\n\nLove the spacious living area\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe dining area is not bad too\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWaiting for our scrumptious breakfast to be served\n\n\n\nThat's not all folks. My wife and the kids also loved the place thanks to the facilities available especially the huge swimming pool. Trust me...it is really enormous, even bigger than a lot of rooftop hotel swimming pools. There is also a huge kid swimming pool which is just about the right depth (not too deep and not too shallow), hence our Jordan boy and Jasmine girl really had a whale of a time splashing and swimming walking...so much so that we had to drag them out of the water. LOL \ud83d\ude01 Ouh yeah~there are also BBQ pits by the pool which we didn't have the opportunity to use (which is a pity).\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0So where are we going?\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0No joke...the swimming pool is really HUGE!\n\n\n\n\n\nAt the kid swimming pool: You jump~I jump \ud83d\ude02\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0We had a blast in the swimming pools\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Her smile says it all \ud83d\ude04\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Me chilling out\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0There is a huge area for you and your family to relax and enjoy food\n\n\n\n\n\nBBQ pit\n\n\n\nSo what did I do after stuffing all the scrumptious food that my wife had dished out? Exercise of course. It always feels good to stay in an accommodation which provides GYM equipment such as treadmills and bikes. Ouh~I also appreciate the dumbbells for me to do some weight exercise. On the other hand, for those who change your attire quite frequently and in need of a place to wash them, you are in luck! There is a full service laundry to help you take care of your clothes. See~you will really feel at home over here. No wonder a lot of customers will return to enjoy another serene stay at this awesome getaway which I know my family and I will definitely return.\n\n\n\n\n\nDon't stop~keep on running\n\n\n\n\n\nHiyeak~time to shed those extra kilos\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMe waiting for my soiled clothes to be washed\n\n\n\nAll in all our staycation here was really, really amazing. We wish we could have extended our stay in this fascinating lodging, equipped with virtually everything that we need. If you are looking for one of the best places for your holidays stay, then I will highly recommend this serviced residences, especially to those with families as you will really appreciate the extended space available at your disposal. Couples and newlyweds will love the romantic feel in the rooms as well. \ud83d\ude1c I must say that The Nomad Serviced Residences Bangsar is where luxury meets affordability.

Unfortunately both their Windows Phone and Windows 10 Mobile were met with lukewarm reception at best. Hence with the Microsoft Surface Duo, the company is banking on Android to help them level the playing field. As its name suggests, this latest smartphone from Microsoft is made up of two huge displays to let you have more visual real estate. Are you ready for a huge clam-shell smartphone from Microsoft?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft Surface Duo as a mini tablet\n\n\n\nWith the Microsoft Surface Duo, you have the option to the two display separately or as one single huge display. There are two 5.6-inch AMOLED screens that are attached together with a 360-degree hinge. With the hinge, you can open the smartphone flat to be a tablet or you can set it at an angle to work like a laptop. Alternatively, you can flip the screens completely to have both of the displays facing outward back-to-back.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft Surface Duo can be used in any way that you like\n\n\n\nHere comes the killer feature: Each of the screens can be used to run different individual apps at the same time. In other words, you can run your Chrome browser on one display while answering your email on a another display. Talking about productivity huh! This will allow you to use your smartphone like a laptop, albeit a mini one. Still, this cool feature of running different apps independently on separate screens can really be a boon for those seeking to ramp up their productivity.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft Surface Duo can be used as a tablet\n\n\n\n\n\n2 screen can run different individual apps simultaneously\n\n\n\nLike I have aforementioned, the Microsoft Surface Duo can be used as an 8.1-inch tablet. So you can browse a webpage, read documents or even use other apps on a \"larger\" display with an aspect ratio of 3:2. However do note that this can only work with compatible apps. I believe that out of the box, a lot of Microsoft's very own apps will be able to support this \"Full Screen\" experience such as their Office apps, PDF Reader, News, One Note and Edge Browser just to name a few.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft Surface Duo supports all Surface Pen models\n\n\nUnder the hood, Microsoft Surface Duo is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset, mated with 6GB of RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.0 internal storage. Unfortunately there is no expandable storage onboard which is really a bummer for a such a productivity smartphone. On top of that the 6GB of RAM is in my opinion, insufficient for a smartphone that will need to support 2 displays that could run different apps simultaneously. Microsoft should have at least thrown in 8GB of RAM as bare minimum.\n\n\n\n\n\nRamp up your productivity like a pro.\n\n\nIn terms of photography, Microsoft Surface Duo boasts an 11-MP adaptive camera for both the front and rear shooters. The cameras are capable of shooting 4K video at 60fps. Those who loves to shoot video will be happy to note that there will be a gyro-based digital video stabilization and HDR for your still images. There is also dual mic with noise suppression and echo cancellation for better voice calling clarity and video recording as well. If you are someone who loves to use a stylus, Surface Pen is supported to be used with this Microsoft Surface Duo smartphone. Will this provide a better experience compared to a Samsung Galaxy Note? I doubt.\n\n\n\nWatch Microsoft Surface Duo in action\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is a shame that this smartphone from Microsoft only comes with a mono speaker so you will be deprived of all the audio enjoyment such as listening to music or watching Netflix. There will be a fingerprint reader and the usual wireless connectivity. In terms of battery, you will get a 3,577mAh battery that is claimed to have a 27-hour talk time. It will support 18W fast charging. Still to have two screens, the battery included is relatively small. Microsoft Surface Duo will come with hefty price tag of US$1,399 (RM5,899) and unfortunately it has too many shortcomings.

For starters, this smartwatch has a 7-day battery life and comes with an affordable price tag of RM299.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRealme Watch Specifications\n\n\n\nRealme Watch boasts a respectable 1.4-inch touch-screen LCD display that comes with a resolution of 320 x 320 pixels. At the moment, there are 12 integrated watch faces for you to toy around and more will be available for download (in the future) through the proprietary Realme Link App. Hopefully the company will encourage more developers to produce watch faces since this can be a make-or-break offer.\n\n\n\n\n\nThere are 12 different watch faces at the moment\n\n\n\nThe bands of the Realme Watch can be easily detached with a push of a button which is a borrowed mechanism from Apple Watch. The silicone band is claimed to be soft and skin-friendly, making it suitable to be worn for long hours. There are 14 different sports mode available and you can track your duration, steps and heart rate while working out which is the bare necessities these days.\n\n\n\n\n\nRealme Watch boasts 14 different Sports Mode to keep you active\n\n\n\nAlthough Realme Watch is marketed as an entry budget smartwatch, it is a formidable offer to disrupt the market with built-in heart rate sensor which supports 24-hour continuous heart-rate monitoring. On top of that, the watch is also equipped with an SpO2 sensor which can measure the level of your blood oxygen saturation. This nifty addition is really important for those who are always engaged in high intensity workouts.\n\n\n\n\n\nMeasure your blood oxygen saturation level with Realme Watch\n\n\n\nWith Realme Watch, you can also easily glance at the display to look at notifications from the apps that we usually use such as WhatsApp, Facebook, GMail and Twitter just to name a few. Apart from that, another great feature is the ability to control your music right from the Realme Watch via Bluetooth 5.0. Given its price point, it will be a shock to see the presence of built-in GPS but it will not be sorely missed. This maiden smartwatch from Realme has a 3-axis accelerometer, a vibration motor and the much needed IP68 dust and water resistance.

Once it is fully charged via a magnetic dock, the smartwatch has a battery life of 7 days with the continuous heart-monitoring feature turned on. Switch it off and you can stretch its battery for another extra 2 days. Want the battery life to be extended to up to 20 days? Activate Power Saving Mode but of course you will be losing a lot of smart features and functionality.

The 4G model of the Galaxy A51 has recorded the highest sell, accounting for 2.3% of all Android smartphones shipped during this period. It is very high in demand across the globe especially Asia and Europe. The report revealed that global shipments was 275 million units in the first quarter of 2020 and android smartphones dominated with a total of 86%. Samsung Galaxy A51 is the number 1 device followed by Xiaomi Redmi 8 and Galaxy S20+.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo far, Galaxy A51 is the best-selling smartphone in 2020\n\n\n\nThis clearly indicates that the reign of premium flagships is slow diminishing as more consumers favour affordable Android smartphones with relatively good hardware specs. Hence today we are going to look at the King of Android of the 1st Quarter of 2020-Samsung Galaxy A51 with a price tag of RM1,299. When you hold it in your hand, you will be amazed by its huge 6.5-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity-O display. This is more than enough for your visual consumption whether to watch Netflix or playing MOBA games with your friends.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSamsung Galaxy A51 has a\u00a0huge 6.5-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity-O display\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, Samsung Galaxy A51 is powered by Exynos 9611 processor complemented by 8GB of RAM. You will have 128GB of internal storage at your disposal which is expandable via microSD card. This ability to expand storage is yet another mainstay feature of affordable smartphones that premium flagships are clearly lacking. Honestly speaking this is a deal breaker for me. Any smartphone without expandable storage is considered as a lousy smartphone unless it comes with a whopping 512GB or 1TB of internal storage.\n\n\n\n\n\n8GB of RAM plus 128GB of Internal Storage which is expandable via microSD card!\n\n\n\nQuad-camera setup\n\n\n\nIn the photography department, Samsung Galaxy A51 has a quad-camera setup for its main rear shooter.

Those who are constantly running out of battery due to gaming, photography or even video-filming will be happy to note that Xiaomi has just released a huge 30,000mAh Mi Power Bank 3 that can charge 3 devices simultaneously. This is of course a massive upgrade for its 20,000mAh Mi Power Bank 3 which can support 2-way fast charging.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nXiaomi Mi Power Bank 3 with a massive 30,000mAh capacity\n\n\n\nIt comes with 2 USB-A ports, 1 USB-C and 1 micro-USB port. The USB-C port will support 2-way charging while the micro-USB port can only be used for input-to charge the power bank. You can charge 3 devices at the same time through the USB-C port and the other 2 normal USB ports. This is actually good news, meaning that instead of carrying 3 different power banks, now a family just need to carry this 1 around to charge everyone's smartphones.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1 single charge can last for 10 days\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHere are some fun facts: According to Xiaomi, their 30,000mAh Mi Power 3's massive capacity can charge the Redmi K30 Pro and Xiaomi Mi 10 4.5 times and it can be used to charge the latest iPhone SE 2020 10.5 times. Equipped with a USB-C to Lightning Cable, you can use it to juice up all the new iPhones via fast-charging. You will need 1 hour and 45 minutes to full charge an iPhone 11 which supports 18W USB-PD fast charging. It is interesting to note that Xiaomi is so thoughtful about iPhone owners. \ud83d\ude00\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCharge 3 devices at the same time with Mi Power Bank 3\n\n\n\nHow about the power bank itself? To fully charge this 30,000mAh Mi Power Bank 3, you will just need around 7.5 hours using a 30W USB-PD charger. If you were to use an 18W charger, that will take you around 10 hours to get a full charge. Likewise an extremely slow 5W charger will take you up to a whopping 31 hours just to get a full charge. Hence, it will be wise that you bring along your fast charging cables with you.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnfortunately for the time being, it is not suitable for air travel yet. Hence it will be better if you get a one with a capacity of 20,000mAh or smaller should you want to travel abroad. However I honestly believe this is the perfect power bank for work, school or even local travel. With its ability to charge 3 devices be it smartphones, tablets, cameras or even you Mi Band at the same time, this 30,000mAh Mi Power Bank 3 is the best power bank to lug around when you are with your friends and family. Currently on sale in China, it comes with a price tag of CNY169 (RM100).

Enter Seagate Backup Plus Portable\u00a0which I have honestly reviewed. It is amazingly fast, safe, boasts high capacity and of course reliable. My work revolves heavily around laptops and computers a lot and that is why I got myself a Seagate Backup Plus Portable 4TB to be my faithful companion to store my work-related documents, powerpoint presentations as well as my priceless family photos and videos.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5 Reasons Why Seagate Backup Plus Portable 4TB Is The Best Portable Hard Drive\n\n\n\n\n\n1. Massive Storage Space-4TB\n\n\nAfter using my Seagate Backup Plus Portable for almost a month, I can safely vouch that it is the best portable hard drive that I have used to date. Firstly I am in love with its massive 4TB of storage that allows me to store virtually anything I can think of. For the record, 4TB of storage could easily fit in a whopping 500 DVDs. Of course I do not store movies. Instead I am using it to keep my precious family photos and videos which usually will take up a lot of storage on our smartphones.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is a huge capacity external hard drive with 4TB of storage space\n\n\n\n\nAfter I have transferred 10 years of photos and videos from my the micoSD cards of my smartphones (mine including my wife's) as backup in my Seagate Backup Plus Portable, I still have around 3.3TB of storage to spare. That means I can easily store another 20 years of photos and videos all in one place in my 4TB Seagate Backup Plus Portable. This is important as I do not need to invest in multiple hard drive storage.

You will be surprised that almost all the specifications seem to match with exception to the shorter battery life. Apart from the 3 hours (instead of HammerHead's 4) of battery life, everything else ticks the right boxes from the Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity to the 13mm drivers to show that it is a carbon copy of the latter. You will be happy to note that the carrying-charging case will still give you extra 12 hours of listening time which is an added bonus, right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you love Pokemon and especially Pikachu then you will need these earbuds\n\n\n\nIf you are a Pokemon fan you will really, really need to catch this Pikachu-themed True Wireless Earbuds by Razor. Why? Besides from the obvious yellow coat of paint, the Carrying-Charging Case is actually a Poke Ball!\u00a0OMG! I know right? Yes. It is modeled after the famous Poke Ball that you hurl at the Pokemons that you want to catch but I doubt you will throw this around. Ha \ud83d\ude01 Hardcore Pokemon fans can now bring around this Poke Ball of their which doubles up as a charging case! On top of that these cute yellow Pikachu earbuds are actually splash-proof too.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe carrying-charging Poke Ball case really looks good right?\n\n\n\nThis pair of Pikachu Pokemon Earbuds can be yours with a price tag of RMB999 (RM600). I am sure ardent fans of Pokemon and Pickachu would want to get their hands on this but the bad news is it will only be available in China exclusively for now. But if you have a buddy or any connection in China, you can ask them to buy the earbuds on TMall right now. Gotta buy them all!\u00a0\n"} {"title": "Xiaomi Mi 10 & Mi 10 Pro 5G-Into The Premium League", "body": "\n\n\n\nXiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro were officially unveiled 2 months ago and now they are available globally (officially) no thanks to the delay brought by Covid-19. Still it is better late than never right? These two latest smartphones from Xiaomi represent a milestone or sort as they kind off signify that Xioami is now competing against Samsung, Apple and Huawei in the big, premium league as well. Can these two flagships wrestle some of the market shares from their rivals? So far it is a YES.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nXiaomi Mi 10\n\nThe so-called basic or regular Mi 10 will have a 6.67-inch Full HD+ display with a punch-hole on the top left corner. The gorgeous display boasts 90Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ and 180Hz touch-sensing. Under the hood, the vanilla Xiaomi Mi 10 will be powered by SnapDragon 865 processor paired with either 8GB or 12GB of RAM. As for internal storage, you get to choose between the 128GB model or the 256GB model. Unfortunately there is no external storage option which is a bummer.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere is a 20MP front-facing camera for your selfies and the rear cameras are made up of quad-camera setup. The 4 cameras that will be gracing your images will be a 108MP Wide camera, 13MP UltraWide camera, 2MP Macro lens and 2MP depth sensor. Mi 10 will be powered by a 4780 mAh battery which supports 30W fast-charging as well as 30W wireless charging. Out of the box, this latest flagship from Xiaomi will be running MIUI 11. Mi 10 will be available in 2 different colours namely Twilight Grey and Coral Green.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nXiaomi Mi 10 Pro\n\nIn terms of display, Mi 10 Pro shares the same 6.67-inch Full HD+ display with its sibling. So you will also be able to enjoy the 90Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ and 180HZ touch-sensing. The main difference between Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro is in terms of RAM and storage configurations. The 3 variants of Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro are:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMi 10 Pro 8GB RAM + 256GB Storage\n\nMi 10 Pro 12GB RAM + 256GB Storage\n\nMi 10 Pro 12GB RAM + 512GB Storage\n\n\n\nIt makes perfect sense to opt for the most advanced configuration of 12GB of RAM plus 512GB of internal UFS 3.0 storage as you cannot enjoy the luxury of expandable storage. So if you have the means, always go for the best.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe front-facing camera on Mi 10 Pro is the same as the one found in Mi 10. Flip it to the back and you will have a more advanced camera setup compared to the basic Mi 10. The more premium rear Penta-Cameras on Mi 10 Pro are 108MP Wide camera, 8MP Telephoto camera, 12MP Portrait camera and a 20MP UltraWide lens. On top of that you will get Laser AutoFocus, OIS, 10X Hybrid Zoom and 2X Optical Zoom. On paper, the Quad-Camera setup on Mi 10 Pro is really awesome to say the least, meaning that you will be able to take stunning photos with it.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInterestingly, Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro sports a smaller battery of 4,500 mAh compared to Mi 10. However this is compensated by the fact that it supports a mind-blowing 50W fast charging and 30W wireless fast charging. Guess you will not need to be plugged to the wall all the time. Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro will be available in 2 different colours as well namely Alphine White and Solstice Grey.\n\n\nWatch Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro advertisements\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPRICING\n\nMi 10 8GB RAM + 128GB storage: \u20ac799 (RM3,699)\n\nMi 10 8GB RAM + 256GB storage: \u20ac899 (RM4,199)\n\n\n\nMi 10 Pro 8GB RAM + 256GB storage:\u00a0\u20ac999 (RM4,699)\n\n\n\nPricing for other variants have yet to be revealed.

So when you mash Lego and Super Mario together, you will create a combo toy that everyone will be loving for sure. This is evident when a Super Mario Lego Set which is supposed to be launched in 1st of August is already sold out.

What is interesting is that the included Mario is an interactive, Bluetooth-enabled Lego figure. Thanks to the addition of Bluetooth, your Mario can actually interact with special Lego \"Action Bricks\" that will enable you to collect \"Coins\" when you move around, just like how you would in your video game!

The Lego Mario Starter Course can be yours with a price tag of RM260 (US$59.90), while the first expansion set-Piranha Plant Power Slide Expansion Set will cost you RM130 (US$29.90) and last but not least the biggest of the three sets-Bowser's Castle Boss Battle Expansion Set will set you back with a price tag of RM434 (US$100). Surely if it is something (from your childhood) that you hold dearly in your heart, it is of course relatively cheap right?

They are almost identical in terms of look, name and even the stylus. Having said so, this latest tablet from Huawei is not merely a \"copycat\". In fact MatePad Pro is in a league of its own by offering specs and features that are the best right now for non-iPadOS tablets. Yupe~that means currently even Samsung\u00a0 premium tablets are lagging behind in terms of features, specs and pricing.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe best tablet from Huawei\n\n\n\nThe MatePad Pro boasts a beautiful 10.8-inch IPS display which pushes a resolution of 2560x1600 with a pixel density of 280ppi. Likewise iPad Pro only churns out 264ppi which means the MatePro's display is better than that form Apple. Using MatePad Pro is definitely a visual pleasure as you can feast on its 90% screen-to-body-ratio display which blasts out DCI-P3 colour gamut.

There are also 5 microphones that offer noise reduction for far field sound detection. Gamers will rejoice knowing that MatePad Pro comes with 3D graphite heat dissipation technology to keep your tablet cool while you are playing games with your mates.\n\n\n\n\n\nImmersive quad-speaker setting!\n\n\n\nTipping the scale at 492g with a thickness of 7.99mm, Huawei MatePad Pro comes with a complimentary free smart magnetic keyboard with 1.33mm key travel and 2 stand angles (60\u00b0 or 70\u00b0).

After launching their highly anticipated P40 and the revolutionary foldable Mate Xs, the company has unveiled Huawei Sound X, which is their premium top-of-the-line speaker. The introduction of Sound X is a natural progression for all big tech companies with the ever increasing prevalence of IoT. Huawei claims that, \"Sound X will revolutionize high-end acoustic technology with sonorous audio that leaves enduring, life altering impression on the listener.\" Wow! What a bold claim and I can't wait to experience it first hand.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReady to bring your listening experience to the next level?\n\n\n\nSo apparently listening to music, news, songs and podcasts on Huawei Sound X will alter our life for the better. In other words, it is supposed to deliver eargasmic sound. Sound X is a collaboration between Devialet-a global audio company which produces products of High-Fidelity. Interestingly Sound X is not a smart speaker which means it is not supposed to be in the same league as Amazon Echo or Google Home. However Huawei mentions that this speaker of theirs does have several \"smart\" abilities.\n\n\n\n\n\nHuawei Share\n\n\n\nHuawei Sound X can connect seamlessly with your Huawei P40 to do many wonderful things. For example while you are playing a song on your smartphone, you can \"transfer\" the song just by gently tapping your P40 against the speaker and voila your favourite tunes will be played by Sound X instead. Of course you can always go old-school by skipping songs using its touch-sensitive buttons on top of the speaker. Together with EMUI 10.1, you can easily configure the settings of Sound X which enables it to emit lossless and low-latency sound. It is worthy to mention that it can immerse you in 360\u00b0 of high quality sound thanks to its design.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Delivering High Fidelity sound\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Visible subwoofer\n\n\n\n\n\nTouch-sensitive buttons\n\n\n\nBeing a very compact speaker, Sound X can deliver equally good or better quality of sound compared to other bigger and bulkier speaker. It is also capable of blasting out 60W bass despite its relatively smaller built and footprint. The exterior design was inspired by the golden dome of the black, glazed surface hints at the robust sound that seems to emanate from a bottomless well. It reminds me of those villainous robots which usually appear our sci-fi movies-think Star Wars. Still, I must agree that it is sleek and elegant. I must admit that it is so beautifully designed that it is a must-have aesthetic addition to your living space or even room.

But before we begin, do know that for this year's edition of flagships from Huawei there will be 3 different variants (P40, P40 Pro & P40 Pro+) instead of just two like their predecessors. The 3 different models correspond with the different camera setups. Interested to get one of these new camera-centric smartphones? Here are 10 things that you should know about Huawei P40:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10 Things You Should Know About Huawei P40:\n\n\n\n1. Screen Size(s)\n\nHuawei P40 (Basic): 6.1-inch OLED display with 2340x1080 resolution.\n\nHuawei P40 Pro: 6.58-inch OLED display with 2640x1200 resolution.\nHuawei P40 Pro+: 6.58-inch OLED display with 2640x1200 resolution\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you consume a lot of visual media using your smartphone, it will be preferable for you to get the Pro and Pro+ versions instead.\n\n\n\n2. Triple, Quad or Penta Rear Cameras?\n\nThe Huawei P40 comes with triple-camera setup while P40 Pro is equipped with quad-camera setup and the most advanced P40 Pro+ features an amazing Penta-camera Setup. So if you can afford the more premium price tag, you will be able to have better quality of cameras at your disposal, 5 to be exact.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs for selfie camera, all 3 variants sport a 32MP front-facing camera and an IR sensor for better facial recognition capabilities.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3. UltraVision Leica Main Camera\n\nAll three different variants of the P40 come equipped with 50MP f/1.9 \"UltraVision\" main cameras with Optical Image Stabilization and advanced \"Octa-Phase Detection\" autofocus for ultra fast focus in low light.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHuawei P40 (Basic):\n\n50MP main camera + 15MP Ultra-wide angle camera + 8MP telephoto lens.\n\nHuawei P40 Pro:\n\n50MP main camera + 40MP Ultra-wide Cine Camera + 12MP \"SuperSensing\" telephoto lens + 3D ToF sensor.\n\nHuawei P40 Pro+:\n\n50MP main camera + 40MP Ultra-wide Cine Camera + 10X Optical Telephoto + 3X Optical Telephoto +3D ToF sensor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4. 50X SuperSensing Zoom\n\nYou would have known by now that all the smartphone makers are focusing on ZOOM these days. Huawei P40 Pro comes with SuperZoom periscope design which allows it to capture 40% more light thanks to its 50MP main camera and 12MP telephoto camera. The 12MP telephoto camera can support up to 5X optical zoom. On the other hand, Huawei P40 Pro+ is capable of 10X Optical Zoom, 20X Hybrid Zoom and a maximum of 100X Zoom. This of course makes it on par with Samsung's latest flagship Galaxy S20 Ultra.\n\n\n\n\n\n100X Zoom to capture everything!\n\n\n\n5. Water Resistance For All 3 Models\n\nIt is a good news indeed to note that all the variants of Huawei P40 are water resistant. However the basic model of P40 only comes with IP53 water resistance while the other two variants (P40 Pro & P40 Pro+) will be equipped with IP68 water resistance. At least all 3 models will be more \"hydrophilic\" now.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6. 90Hz High Refresh Rate Display\n\nIt makes perfect sense to launch display with 90Hz refresh rate which is supposed to be the bare minimum for flagship devices. Only the P40 Pro and P40 Pro+ variants will be enjoying this upgrade. Then again the other smartphone makers have already fitted in 120Hz display for their flagship devices. So Huawei is basically playing catch up. The basic model of Huawei P40 will only be getting a normal 60Hz display.\n\n\n\n\n\nSupport for WiFi 6+-with 2.4Gbps\n\n\n\n7. WiFi 6+ Support\n\nAll 3 models of Huawei P40 will be supported by WiFi 6+ which is the highest WiFi standard to date (correct at the time of writing) with a whopping speed of up to 2.4Gbps. On paper this does seem like amazingly fast. I am glad that all 3 models will be enjoying this WiFi 6+ technology instead of just the premium variants. Phew!\n\n\n\n\n\nCharge Wirelessly from 0-65% in 30 minutes for Huawei P40 Pro+ \ud83d\ude31\n\n\n\n8. 40W SuperCharging\n\nThe premium P40 Pro+ will be enjoying 40W SuperCharging not only for wired charging but also wireless charging. Interestingly you will need a special SuperCharge charger and cable which are not included (optional) \ud83d\ude02. Unfortunately the other 2 watered down models will not be able to enjoy the 40W SuperCharging technology. The mid-tier P40 Pro can be charged wirelessly at 27W while the basic model will only support 22.5W cable charging. So only P40 Pro and P40 Pro+ will support wireless charging and of course reverse wireless charging with other compatibles devices. Hence if you do not want to be plugged to the walls all the time you might opt for P40 Pro or P40 Pro+.\n\n\n\n\n\nWireless charging at 40W which is really superfast!\n\n\n\n9. NO Google Mobile Services (GMS)\n\nIf you are someone who is so used to Google Mobile Services (GMS), do note that all your favourite apps such as GMail, Google Map, and Youtube just to name a few will not come preinstalled out of the box.

But that does not mean that we should be deprived of smartphones that possess great performance but at the same only cost a fraction of the premium price tag, right? Enter Redmi Note 9 Pro which is probably the best smartphone under RM1000 right now with awesome specs, huge screen and long-lasting battery. The official release of Redmi Note 9 Pro and Redmi Note 9 Pro Max indicates that Xiaomi intends to rule the mid-range market with top notch specs with a cheap price tag that commoners can afford. \ud83d\udc4d\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRedmi Note 9 Pro Max\n\nRedmi Note 9 Pro Max is the more premium of the two variants and it has slightly larger beautiful 6.67-inch Full HD+ display with a punch-hole camera. It is powered by Snapdragon 720G processor that can be paired with up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of UFS 2.1 storage. The good news this time is that there is the inclusion of triple-tray slot which will enable you to use two nano sim cards at the same time plus a microSD slot for your extra storage needs.\n\n\n\n\n\nRedmi Note 9 Pro & Note 9 Pro Max run Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G!\n\n\n\nThe huge 6.67-inch display pushes 1080x2400 pixels with 395 ppi density and the screen is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5. Flip it to the rear, you will see the symmetrical 3D curved glass design and a 2x2 camera cluster which resembles the one seen on the Huawei Mate 20 Series. Rear-mounted fingerprint scanner has been moved to the side instead, giving the back design a cleaner look. We are hoping that they could cram in in-display fingerprint scanner but that will mean extra cost.\n\n\n\n\n\nBeautiful cinematic display\n\n\n\nSpeaking about the camera, Redmi Note 9 Pro Max's quad-camera cluster is made up of 64MP f/1.89 main camera with a huge 1/1.7\" sensor. The other 3 cameras are a 2MP depth sensor, 8MP f/1.89 ultra-wide angle camera and a 5MP macro camera. Telephoto lens is absent but you can still get 10x zoom digitally. With the Note 9 Pro Max, you can record 4K videos at 30fps as well as shooting 960fps slow-mo in 720p. Flip it to the front and you will be greeted by a 32MP selfie camera that actually supports Super Pixel Feature for all those selfies in low light condition. You can shoot 1080p videos an slow-mo videos at 120fps by using the selfie camera. Not bad at all if you ask me for a budget phone!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhopping fast 33W fast charging!\n\n\n\n\n\nIf long-lasting battery life is what you are looking for in a smartphone, then you will love the huge 5,020mAh battery that Note 9 Pro Max possess. It charges via USB-C and supports 33W fast charging: you can charge from 0-50% in just 30 minutes! Wow! There is also the inclusion of the rare 3.5mm headphone jack and an IR blaster which is located at the top of the smartphone. Sounds like one of the best smartphones under RM1,000 so far in 2020, right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRedmi Note 9 Pro\n\nThough it lacks the \"Max\", Redmi Note 9 Pro is still a high-performing budget smartphone. Here's the good news: It still RETAINS the same 6.67-inch Full HD+ display, the exact Snapdragon 720G processor and of course that huge 5,020mAh battery pack. Guess Redmi decided not to shortchange its fans after all huh. The maximum RAM configuration is 6GB instead of the 8GB that the more premium Max model has. On top if that to justify the cheaper price tag, you will have to be contend with the 48MP main rear camera with a smaller 1/2.25\" sensor and 16MP selfie camera. Still, I believe the base model is really good enough for most users with limited budget.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRear-mounted fingerprint scanner\n\n\n\nAnother key difference for Redmi Note 9 Pro is you will only have the 18W fast charger instead of the 33W fast charging capability that comes with the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max. If this is a deal-breaker for you, I will urge you to opt for the Max variant instead just by adding another RM58. Why not right? Both Redmi Note 9 Pro and Note 9 Pro Max support Bluetooth 5.0, 802.11ac WiFi and 2x2 WiFi MIMO. Unfortunately both of them lack NFC support that I believe is still relatively negligible in Malaysia for now.

In fact for the uninitiated, it could be a bit tricky to tell them apart from afar. Though this full-fledged smartwatch from Oppo might look like a carbon copy of the more expensive wearable from Apple, it turns out that Oppo Watch has a few tricks up its own sleeves that the Cupertino Company should be wary of. Let's read on to find out.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAvailable in two different sizes, you can choose between 41mm or the more premium 46mm Oppo Watch to lace on your wrist. Do note that the 41mm version of model utilizes an alloy case while the 46mm model will be donning an aluminium casing. If you prefer something even finer, you can get your hands on the Stainless Steel Watch in 46mm size. Despite the fact that it is inspired by Apple Watch, Oppo Watch has a 3D flexible display with dual-curved edges which makes it look \"frameless\". Unlike Apple Watch which was incorporated with a digital crown, Oppo Watch will have two physical buttons instead on the right side for you to give your commands.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn terms of display, the 41mm model showcases a 1.6\" AMOLED display with a resolution of 320x260\u00a0and pushes pixel density at around 300ppi. On the other hand, the premium 46mm Oppo Watch boasts 1.91\" AMOLED display with a resolution of 402x476 pixel. Interestingly it is on the same level as Apple Watch in regards to pixel density of 326ppi, making it an eye candy as well.\n\n\n\n\n\nSwap the clock face for Oppo Watch easily\nWant to personalize your Oppo Watch? Of course this can be done easily by swapping the watch faces and changing the straps to your Oppo Watch. You can easily detach the bands with just a push of a button. It is reported that Oppo has made a wide range of bands available to suit your taste ranging from fluorescent rubber bands to calf leather. Besides I am positive that there will be face watches and bands made available by third parties to make your Oppo Watch stand out!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, Oppo Watch is powered by a dual-chip system of Qualcomm Snapdragon 2500 for performance and an Apollo 3 Chip for more efficient battery life. There will be 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage to keep your wearable snappy and fast. In terms of connectivity, Oppo Watch does support 2.4GHz WiFi, Bluetooth 4.2, integrated GPS, NFC support and 3G/LTE via an eSIM. There is of course optical heart rate monitor and sleep tracking features as well. It runs on ColorOS Watch which is based on Android and you can even download third party applications such entertainment apps and social media apps just to name a few.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClose to you heart\n\n\nHow about battery life? This is quite an important question, otherwise you will end up buying a smartwatch that is plugged to your wall all the time! On a single charge your Oppo Watch can last up to 40 hours which is more than double of what Apple Watch is capable of. Turning on the Power Save Mode will help to stretch your Oppo Watch's battery life to up to 21 days but then again you will be compromising on a lot of features. The good news is, Oppo Watch has VOOC Flash Charging feature which allow you to get 46% of battery with just 15 minutes of charging! A full charge will only take 75 minutes of your time. For your information, Oppo Watch's battery life can last 4 hours longer than its Chinese counterpart-Xiami Watch.\n\n\n\n\n\n15 minutes of charging for 46% of battery life\n\n\nOppo Watch is designed to keep you active and hence it has 5ATM (50 metres) water resistance for the 46mm premium version while the smaller 41mm model has 3ATM (30 metres) of water resistance instead which is still not bad. Currently, Oppo Watch is only available in China and it will be released for sale on the 24th of March 2020. Global release is expected to happen in April.\n\n\n\n\n\nPRICING\n\nOppo Watch 46mm model - RM1,199\n\nOppo Watch 41mm model- RM899\n\n"} {"title": "Oppo Find X2 Pro Is The Best Camera Phone According To DxOMark", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nAfter almost 2 years Oppo has finally unveiled the successor to the somewhat controversial Oppo Find X\u00a0which was one of the best-looking smartphones in 2018 with a rather innovative slide-up camera set up. Fast forward to 2020, Oppo presents to the world Find X2 in two different variants namely the regular Find X2 and the advanced version-Oppo Find X2. Will they live up to the expectations set up by the older sibling? Let's find out.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFind X2 is a flagship smartphone with killer specs with great emphasis being placed on the display and of course all the cameras. Under the hood of Find X2, you will find the powerhouse Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor with a whopping 12GB of RAM plus 256GB of UFS 3.0 internal storage. As for Find X2 Pro, the internal storage is doubled to 512GB. Both variants of Find X2 runs Android 10 with Oppo's in-house ColorOS 7.1 for more personalization options.\n\n\n\nLike I have aforementioned, big focus is being given to the biggest real estate of the smartphone-display. There is a huge gorgeous 6.7'inch OLED display that pushes Quad HD+ resolution at 3168x1440 pixels. That will be 551ppi of pixel density for ultra clarity that our naked eyes cannot directly distinguish of course. Here is something that gamers will be happy about: the display has a refresh rate of 120Hz and can project 100% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut with a staggering contrast ratio of 5,000,000:1. On top of that, the brightness of the display can peak at 1,200 nits in HDR while the overall maximum brightness will be at 800 nits.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFind X2 Pro Camera\n\nNow let us talk about the strongest selling point of Oppo Find X2 Pro-the cameras. According to DxOMark's latest review, the cameras of Find X2 Pro performed amazingly well with a score of 124. It is now (correct at the time of the writing) the best-ranked camera phone, which makes it better than Huawei Mate 30 Pro and Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max. Its rear shooters consist of a triple camera setup: (1) 48MP wide angle primary camera which utilizes Sony IMX689 sensor with a large 1/1.43\" sensor,\u00a0 (2) 48MP UltraWide sensor (Sony IMX586) and (3) 13MP telephoto lens with 5X optical zoom! The telephoto camera of Find X2 Pro is actually made up of periscope lens which can extend up to 60X maximum zoom and improved 10X hybrid zoom. According to DxOMark as well, Oppo Find X2 Pro scored 134 and 104 respectively for Photo and Video. The report commended Find X2 Pro for its autofocus system, dynamic range and noise-management to deliver top notch quality of photos and videos.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFind X2 Camera\n\nOppo's regular Find X2 will of course feature slightly downgraded camera system. Though the wide camera has been replaced with Sony IMX586 sensor while the 13MP telephoto camera is no longer equipped with periscope design. Hence you will only be getting 20X maximum zoon and 5X hybrid zoom.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBoth variants of Find X2 sport a 32MP selfie camera, situated in the tiny punch hole. Both of the flagship devices also feature stereo speakers which will be a boon for avid gamers and binge-watching lovers. Find X2 Pro is also the first flagship from Oppo which comes with IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, allowing it to survive submersion of up to 1.5M for a maximum of 30 minutes. It is a pity that the regular Find X2 is not bestowed with similar protection.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAnother different between Find X2 Pro and Find X2 is in terms of battery capacity. The more premium variant boasts 4,260 mAh of battery while the regular variant has 4,200 mAh. Having said so the difference is almost negligible. Both flagship devices support 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 Flash Charging that can FULLY CHARGE your smartphones in just 38 minutes! That is really, really fast! Both Oppo Find X2 support 5G, WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo will it be the Orange Leather or the Black Ceramic?\n\n\n\nAs for colour options, the premium Find X2 Pro will be available in Black (Ceramic) and Orange (Vegan Leather). The standard variant will be available in Black (Ceramic) and Ocean (Glass). Find X2 will be sold in Malaysia on the 14th of March while the premium X2 Pro will be available on the 21st of March. Both of the events will take place at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. Why can't both of them be launched and sold at the same time?

Though it is a so-called watered down flagship, Galaxy Note 10 Lite can hold its own in the big league. It is the most affordable smartphone with the omnipotent\u00a0 S Pen. Boasting a 6.7'inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity-O display, Note 10 Lite will surely give you a splendid visual experience be it for media consumption or gaming.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSuper AMOLED plus Infinity-O Display\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, Note 10 Lite is powered by a slightly dated Exynos 9810 processor which is similar to that in a Note 9. Good news is Note 9 is still powerhouse and that makes Note 10 Lite a very capable smartphone as well. It is complemented by a whopping 8GB of RAM plus 128GB of internal storage. Need more space to store your photos and videos? Fret not as there will be external memory support via MicroSD up to 1TB of storage (which is a lot). Being a blogger and content creator, we sometimes shoot ridiculous number of photos which will take lots of space so yeah an expandable storage will be ideal.\n\n\n\n\n\n128GB+1TB should be more than enough for tonnes of photos!\n\n\n\n\n\nTriple-camera for the shutterbug in you!\n\n\n\nIn terms of photography, the main rear shooter is made up of 3 cameras of 12MP for telephoto, wide and ultra-wide.

There will be a built-in Fingerprint scanner for a more secure, snappy login. Talking about peace of mind. Though the S Pen of Note 10 Lite lacks the gesture features in the more premium variants, it is still works like magic with its 4096 pressure levels for accurate and smooth writing as if you are writing on a piece of paper. Do note that the S Pen of Note 10 Lite is Bluetooth enabled. So you can use it as a remote to snap photos or to control your music.

It is claimed that by charging for just 1 hour (60 minutes) you will have enough juice to last for the whole day. Despite lacking wireless charging and\u00a0 IP68 dust and water resistance, Note 10 Lite does come equipped with a 3.5mm headphone jack for those who prefer wired music. With a retail price of only RM2,299, Galaxy Note 10 Lite is definitely a steal for those who would love to own a smartphone with S Pen to ramp up your productivity.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Turn your handwriting into text!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo more with the All-Day Battery\n\n\n\n\n\nAt only RM2,299 Galaxy Note 10 Lite is by far one of the best mid-range smartphones!

Instead we used cream cheese as the substitute and it was equally creamy and delicious to say the least. Now let's start making our Tiramisu cake shall we?\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's begin\n\n\n\nTiramisu Cake Recipe Step-by-step\n\n\nBy using the mixer, whisk the 2 cups of whipping cream at high speed until it is creamy and even. Then store it in the fridge.\nAgain use your mixer to whisk your 500 grams of cream cheese at medium speed first. Continue until it is creamy.\nGradually add sugar to the whisked cream cheese and then change the mixer's speed to high speed.\nAdd vanilla extract and continue to whisk the mixed ingredients until it is super creamy, smooth and well combined.\nAdd the whipping cream to the mixture and mix them well manually until the mixture is well blended together.\nThe mixture will be ready once it is creamy and smooth without any presence of lumps or clustering. This can only be achieved by whisking the whipping cream well and mixing the cream cheese and other ingredients perfectly (Thanks to my Innofood Stand Mixer \ud83d\ude04)\nThen you can dip the ladyfingers into the chilled/cold coffee very briefly and immediately arrange them in a tray nicely. Remember that you should not dip the ladyfingers too long or they will become soggy later.\nAfter adding one layer of the coffee-soaked ladyfingers, add the mixed ingredients onto the ladyfingers. Make sure you spread the ingredients evenly to cover to layer of ladyfingers.\nAdd another layer of ladyfingers before spreading another layer of the mixed ingredients on top.\nThe next step will be the \"icing\" on the cake by adding unsweetened cocoa powder on top of the mixed ingredients.\u00a0\nLast but not least, store your tiramisu cake in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight.\nVoila~your tiramisu cake is ready.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0First whisk the whipping cream\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Look at the mixed ingredients so smooth~thanks to our Innofood stand mixer\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Next let's lay our ladyfingers\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Dipped those \"fingers\" in the chilled coffee quickly\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Now to add our mixed ingredients on top of the ladyfingers\n\n\n\n\n\nCovering the second layer of ladyfingers\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Almost there \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Evenly spread the ingredients to make flawless looking Tiramisu cake\n\n\n\n\n\nThe final touches with cocoa powder\n\n\n\nHonestly speaking this Tiramisu cake that my wife had made is almost as good as the ones that we usually have at cafes (if not better \ud83d\ude0b).

Most men (sons, boyfriends and fathers) will agree to this statement without thinking twice. Well...that is because they have not met Dyson V11 Absolute\u00a0(yet) which is an avant-garde vacuum cleaner that I will rate as the best cordless vacuum cleaner to date.\u00a0This latest cord-free vacuum cleaner from Dyson provides unbelievably suction power and even a display screen to let you have a look at its battery and runtime! There is no doubt that this vacuum cleaner is from the future.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSometimes we get tangled up right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0So I have got myself an ideal cleaner\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0YES! Dyson V11 Absolute Cordless Vacuum Cleaner\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore I could bust any dirt and dust, I need to charge my \"gun\" first.\n\n\n\n\nBeing a modern-day husband, it is my responsibility to help lighten my wife's burden at home. While she is busy dishing our scrumptious food in the kitchen, it only makes sense that I help around in the house, keeping our abode clean and dustless. I have a confession to make: usually vacuuming the house is a tedious and sweaty affair as I have to pull the cords and tug along the vacuum cleaner. Not anymore! Behold my very own, brand new Dyson V11 Absolute Vacuum Cleaner! Honestly speaking, vacuuming the house is something that I really, really enjoy doing right now. In fact my wife claims that I am vacuuming way too much. LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Let's unbox the world's best cordless vacuum cleaner\n\n\n\n\n\nAlways read the instructions\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHmm...\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's see what do we have inside the box\n\n\n\n\n\nA lot of things if you ask me\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nActual footage of me when I get my gun! :p\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOMG! Is this really a vacuum cleaner?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nUnbelievably beautiful\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore simple guides\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0It is really easy to set V11 up.\n\nIt's practically plug and play\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready to suck dust?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLight Saber or Laser Gun?\nVacuuming used to be kinda boring and a drag due to the dull-looking vacuum cleaner with cords that will hold you back and even tangle you up! Now with this handheld cordless vacuum cleaner from Dyson, your vacuuming will be a breeze. In fact, I can't help but feel like I am a freaking Jedi in Star Wars movies, wielding my purplish blue light saber while sucking all those pesky dust around me. On the other hands, it also looks like a futuristic gun from a sci-fi movie that threatens to wipe out anything that I am pointing at. Don't you feel the same as well? My mind is still blown by how beautiful and cool this V11 Absolute is! It is definitely a looker.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0I am a Jedi Master with my light saber\n\n\n\n\n\nGuardian of the Galaxy with my laser gun. :p\n\n\nLook! No More Cord\nOk! Let's get down to business. So how do I suck dust from around my house? You see instead of a normal on/off button, you need to press on the red trigger to start vacuuming. *SEE it is like a laser gun* I really love this intuitive design as it means you don't have to switch the vacuum on and off all the time. All you need to do is wrap one finger on the red trigger, apply pressure and *voila* dust can be seen collecting in the cylinder. I really feel liberated when I am using the V11 as there is no need to plug in. All I need to do is grab my gun and start vacuuming without the hassle of being restrained by cord length. It is super convenient and easy now to clean your house.\n\n\n\n\nEven my wife is loving it\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0There is no need to worry about electrical plug\n\n\n\n\n\nEven my children can vacuum now\n\n\n\n\n\nWithout the cords you can easily do your cleaning virtually anywhere\n\n\nIntelligent Adaptive Sucking\nIt is undeniable that V11 Absolute is the best cord-free vacuum cleaner that Dyson has invented to date. Do you know that it can intelligently adjust the suction power automatically according to the floor type? Yes. Thanks to the 3 microprocessors integrated inside the Dynamic Load Sensor of the battery, digital motor and High Torque Cleaner Head, it can detect the different surfaces and change the power of the suction accordingly. This is made possible thanks to the the microprocessors which monitor your vacuuming performances up to 8,000 times a second. That is really, really fast!\n\n\n\n\n\nV11 is an intelligent Vacuum Cleaner that will make life easy for you\n\n\nContrary to popular belief, a handheld cordless vacuum cleaner is not as powerful as a regular vacuum cleaner with wire. That is not the case here with the V11 Absolute. I am super impressed by how powerful the V11 digital motor is. Most of the time I just need to pass the vacuum once over any surfaces that I am cleaning\u00a0and then it is spick and span. This is what happens when your vacuum motor runs at insane neck-breaking 125,000 rpm. On top of that, Dyson engineers further enhanced the motor by adding a triple diffuser and redesigning the rotating blades to be thinner and longer. All these tweaks enable the performance of the V11 motor, improving air flow, increasing suction power and reducing noise. Thanks to the re-engineering of the motor, my V11 has 20% more suction power than its older sibling-V10.\n\n\n\n\n\n125,000rpm\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe High Torque Cleaner Head can automatically adjust the suction power\n\n\n\nFor your information, the cleaner head is capable of detecting bar resistance of up to 360 times per second. This allows the motor to change the sucking power accordingly if you glide between hard floors and say rugs. In other words, with such intelligent vacuuming capability you do not need to change your cleaner head as the suction power can be adjusted according to the surface that you are cleaning. So all you need to do is press the trigger and the cordless vacuum cleaner will be doing all the heavy lifting!\n\n\n\n\n\nAn LCD display for a vacuum?\n\nWho would have thought right?\n\n\nSmart LCD Display\nAnother first in V11 is the inclusion of integrated LCD display to show us the battery mode (auto, boost and eco) as well as the remaining runtime (battery juice). This ingenious display panel allows you to select your battery mode depending on your vacuuming needs and available runtime left. If you do not want to overthink which mode you should be using, just plug in the aforementioned High Torque Cleaner with Dynamic Load Sensor and it will change to Auto Mode. Then the suction power will be changed accordingly and toggled between the modes automatically to help you balance between power and battery. It is fun to see LCD display showing the auto-suction toggling between the different modes. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nToggle between modes through the LCD display\n\n\nApart from showing you a countdown timer (remaining runtime), the display will also notify you when your filter needs to be washed. It will also alert you if you do not connect your vacuum correctly. Experiencing blockage? Fret not as the screen will guide you on how to fix the problem by actually playing an animated demo for your to dismantle the vacuum to solve your problem. You will have your whole command system on the screen. Damn! So it makes perfect sense to add a circular LCD screen to V11.\n\n\n\n\n\nAll the tools that you need\n\n\nTools For Every Job\nThe moment I unbox my Dyson V11 Absolute, I know that I am getting every single tools that I need to combat dirt and dust in my home! You will be equipped with a plethora of cleaner heads, tools and even a drop in dock. The following are the \"gears\" that come with the V11 Absoloute:\n\nHigh Torque Cleaner Head (multipurpose open space)\nSoft Roller Cleaner Head (hard floor)\nMini Motorised Tool (stairs, furniture, car, small spaces)\nCombination Tool (furniture)\nCrevice Tool (small spaces)\nSoft Dusting Tool (window ledges, wall skirting)\nStubborn Dirt Brush (carpets, door mats)\nWand Storage Clip (to hold two tools)\nDrop-in Dock (charging dock, tools holder)\n\n\n\n\nPick your tool to do the job\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0The wand storage clip is really useful to attach two other tools to it\n\n\n\nIt is kinda fun toying with the different tools and heads to get your cleaning job done. You can switch the accessories to see what fits your cleaning tasks. As for me, most of the time I will be using the High Torque Cleaner Head, Mini Motorised Tool, the Crevice Tool and the Soft Dusting Brush. Another useful addition is the Wand Storage Clip which allows me to attach two of my most-used tools to the extension pole (purplish blue light saber). Hence I can easily swap my tools for different tasks as it is attached to the vacuum. Speaking about total convenience here!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLove how cool the Drop-in Dock is\n\n\n\n\nAnother very important tool that Dyson decided to throw in is the Drop-in Dock which I thought was really, really indispensable. Besides being a charging dock, it also contains two ports for you to store your other tools that you do not use that frequent. More importantly, IMHO this Dock really makes the whole V11 Absolute looks more beautiful and not to mention very premium. It really exudes so much class and futuristic vibes to it. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nRest assured that everything will be filtered\n\n\nClean and Easy\nWhen you are vacuuming around your house, the 14 cyclones will be busy generating a collective force of more than 79,000g to suck in all the microscopic particles such as bacteria and pollen into the V11 Bin. So rest assured that nothing dirty will be sticking to any surfaces that you have glided over. Moreover the fully sealed filtration system also ensure that only clean air will be expelled at the other end of the vacuum. Do you know that the filtration system can trap up to 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns? Gosh it sounds like my Dyson Air Purifier already.\n\n\n\n\n\nPoint and eject the dirt.\n\nEasy and clean\n\n\nAfter using the V11 Absolute I don't think I will be using another normal vacuum cleaner anymore. Why? This is because it makes me feel so CLEAN. Thanks to the clever design of the \"Point and Shoot\" V11 Bin, I can easily dispose all the collected dust and dirt without being in contact with any of the filth. All I have to do is hover the V11 Bin on top of a trashcan and push down the lever to eject all the dirt and dust. Since the bin is also transparent, you can easily see how much dust, dirt and of course are being sucked in. That is I am saying that you will find it really clean and easy to use this superb vacuum cleaner!\n\n\n\n\nWatch my simple video review about the\n6 reasons why you should get Dyson V11 Absolute Cordless Vacuum Cleaner\n\n\nVerdict-Why You Should Buy Dyson V11 Absolute\nAfter using my Dyson V11 Absolute for almost 1 week, I must say that my house has definitely become cleaner (no joke). More importantly, I am so used to the convenience that comes with it. It is so easy to use that I am actually doing a lot more of spot cleaning on top of my weekly routine. In fact even children are now more keen to help clean the house. After all, it only takes a few minutes to suck some hair, clean around the dining area for food crumbs and to banish those little dirt dust.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe World's Best Cordless Vacuum Cleaner\n\n\nIf you are shopping for your very first cordless vacuum cleaner, then this Dyson V11 Absolute should be on top of your list. It surely has the incredible suction power to rival or even beat any existing corded vacuum cleaners available in the market right now. The introduction of High Torque Cleaner Head enables intelligent automatic adaptive suction which I think is really good and convenient. The addition of LCD display has also changed how I clean my house. In fact these two improvements have truly refined my experience in using a cordless vacuum cleaner. So I will gladly declare in this review of mine that Dyson V11 Absolute is a beast and is absolutely the best cordless vacuum cleaner that money can buy right now.\n\n\n\n\nI am addicted to using my Dyson V11 Absolute right now!\nYou should get one too. :p\n\nDyson: https://shop.dyson.my/\nFacebook: www.faebook.com/DysonMy\nInstagram: www.instagram.com/dyson\nTwitter: www.twitter.com/dyson\n\n"} {"title": "Linksys Velop-Create Your Perfect Home WI-FI System", "body": "\n\n\n\nDon't you feel frustrated when you cannot get any WI-FI signal a all in the comfort of your own home just because your room happens to be far, far away from where your modem or router is?

Otherwise it is just a waste of your money.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold the Velop TRUE WiFi Mesh System that will set your Internet Free from Linksys\n\n\n\n\nThere are so many gadgets that promise to extend WI-FI range or in other words amplify the existing WI-FI signal so that you could enjoy your Internet. Then again if your WI-FI signal is weak to begin with, then no amount of amplification will work. That is where Linksys Velop come into the picture. Instead of amplification of WI-FI signal, Linksys Velop deploys mesh networks that consist of nodes that are capable of transmitting data around at WI-FI speeds. Unlike other mesh systems, Linksys Velop is the true mesh networking system as it is more reliable and more advanced compared to the other competition in the market.\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's unbox our true mesh Wi-Fi system, shall we?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0I love the elegant design\n\n\n\n\n\nHoles for ventilation-This allows the nodes to work efficiently\n\n\nAfter I have personally tested the mesh networking system from Linksys, I must say that it is the real deal as there is no main default router to begin with. This clever design ensures that each node (there are 3) is able to communicate with each other independently. In other words each of the 3 nodes in the VELOP system function as an individual full-fledged standalone router. This special functionality allows the Velop mesh system to work with much more flexibility. I gotta admit that this intuitive design and engineering is really ingenious.\n\n\n\n\n\nEssentials connections at the base of the nodes\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nPower plug\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n3-pin? 2-pin? Don't worry~Linksys got you covered\n\n\nCrafted to be an eye candy, each of the Linksys Nodes is aesthetically pleasing and elegant (thanks to the all white colour). Honestly speaking when I un-box them, they don't look like a router at all. In fact, these 3 beauties look more like wireless Bluetooth speakers. The best part is, each of the nodes is designed to be compact. Meaning that it can easily fit in any corner of your house. Linksys claimed that each of their nodes is 88% smaller than a traditional router and I do agree thoroughly.\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's try to connect our nodes\n\n\nBeing compact and beautiful means that all the nodes can easily be placed anywhere you like since it takes up less space and will blend in with its surrounding easily. As I am staying in a 4-bedroom house, I decided to create my Mesh WI-FI System by placing my 3 nodes at different locations in the house especially the dead spots. Set up was really a breeze and easy. The effortless, app-based set up guided me through the whole plug and play process easily. In no time I am enjoying my full speed Internet throughout my house. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nThe step-by-step guide is really helpful\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0(Left) There is this optional Linksys shield which I thought is really good.\n\n(Centre): Guest Access can be set easily\n\n(Right): Set who gets exclusive priority!\n\n\n\n\u00a0After you have done setting your first node, you can set the other (depending on your needs) easily.\n\n\nLike I have aforementioned, each of the 3 nodes is a master of its own-meaning that should one of the nodes is accidentally switched off or unplugged, the other nodes will immediately pick up the slack and reconnect your devices to ensure they have Internet connectivity all the time.\u00a0I tried this \"self-healing\" ability of Velop by switching off one of the nodes and I am really impressed with its ability to ensure continued WI-FI coverage\u00a0for all my devices. No stuttering, no downtime! No lagging at all!\n\n\n\n\n\nI love how the node blends in easily\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe colour indicator is really helpful as well\n\n\n\n\n\nThose who house is more than 1 storey will really love Linksys Velop Mesh WiFi system\n\n\nNow being a Netflix junkie means that I really enjoy watching my favourite shows once my children and wife are asleep. Ha :D With Velop you do not have to worry if you have to move from your living room to say...the kitchen to grab something to eat as the whole house is blanketed with full strength WI-FI signal. So there will be no lagging or buffering or whatsoever to disrupt your viewing experience. Likewise while I am playing game, I could easily move from room to room without being worried about dropped WI-FI signal as Velop allows me to enjoy seamless WI-FI roaming from room-to-room. This is made possible as you only need to be connected to only one network all the time without the need to switch. Now that is what I call WI-FI that sets you free!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatch where I place my nodes around my home. :)\n\nIf you are a parent like me, you will be happy to know that you can easily limit and control your kids' screen time with the Linksys Shield (on Velop Tri-band only). So no more worrying about our little ones surfing the wrong kinds of websites, being addicted to online games or watching shows non-stop (only I am allowed to enjoy such privileges :p). So you are going to have a party and there will be many guests? Just share your WI-FI connection with them as they will get their own WI-FI name and password. All of these can be done easily though the app. Talking about total convenience and peace of mind huh!\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is obvious that Velop is really small compared to your normal router\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0In the Kitchen? No problem Velop got you convered\n\n\n\n\n\nWatching something in the toilet? Ha :D\n\nHa~no worries thanks to Linksys Velop\n\n\nI am really happy that I have invested in this perfect WI-FI mesh network system of mine. It is really worth every penny I have spent as I now get to fully enjoy my Internet subscription to do things that I love. The best part is this Linksys Velop Mesh WI-FI is future-proof as it will enjoy automatic software and security updates to make sure you are always ahead of the competition. Last but not least the 3 years warranty and 3 years premium level tech support will surely be a great added assurance for you to purchase your very own Links Velop Mesh WI-FI system as well. It is time to create the perfect, flawless home WI-FI network.\n\n\nFor more information about Linksys Velop:\nWebsite: www.linksys.com/my\nVelop Direct Link: www.linksys.com/my/velop\nFacebook: www.facebook.com/linksys\nTwitter: www.twitter.com/linksys\nInstagram: www.instagram.com/linksys\n\n\n\n\nLinksys Velop Whole Home WiFi to let you truly enjoy your Internet\n\n"} {"title": "Mi Band 4 With AMOLED Colour Display Is Here + Avengers Edition", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nThe much anticipated Mi Band 4 has finally been unveiled in China and I am really impressed to say that Xiaomi has done it again. It is amazing that Xiaomi can squeeze so much goodies into this fitness band of theirs and still keep the price tag low. No wonder it is the best selling fitness band right now in the whole wide world. Mi Band 4 is a huge upgrade from its predecessor as it now comes with a beautiful AMOLED colour display. Yes, it is the first ever Mi Band with a colour screen.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMi Band 4-now with AMOLED display!\n\n\n\n\nYours truly me is the proud of owner of all the Mi Bands (Generations 1, 2 and 3) that have been released so far and with the official announcement of this latest fitness band from Xiaomi, I kinda feel that my Mi Band 3 is already outdated. Will the AMOLED colour display alone be enough to persuade current Mi Band 3 owners to upgrade? I know I will jump on the bandwagon as the black and white display monochrome display will never be as good as one that pushes high resolution colours.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe screen is really gorgeous!\n\n\n\n\nThe new Mi Band 4 comes with a bigger screen. The display is now larger by a whopping 39.9% and Xiaomi has actually used AMOLED instead of normal LCD screen. This is really, really amazing if you ask me as they can still keep the price ridiculously low. On top of that, the screen is also protected by a 2.5D scracth-resistant tempered glass. Like its older siblings, Mi Band 4 will be equipped with the usual heart built-in heart rate sensor and it will be water resistant as well (up to 50 metre).\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo it will have good visibility under direct sunlight?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime to upgrade to Mi Band 4\n\n\nThis latest fitness band from Xiaomi also comes with an upgraded 6-axis high-precision sensor that can recognize the type of swimming strokes that you are making which includes Freestyle, Backstroke, Butterfly Stroke and Medley. Moreover Mi Band 4 can also track 6 different sporting modes such as running (both indoor and outdoor), exercise, swimming, cycling and walking. Thanks to its integrated NFC support, you can now use it to make payment through AliPay and WeChatPay. This is simply brilliant!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOne of the biggest upgrades has got to be support for Xiao Ai voice assistant which can be utilized to control all of Xiaomi's IoT devices and gadgets. So far it is claimed that you can even play music, set schedules and book air tickets simply by talking to your Mi Band 4. WOW! The best part is, you can customize your voice command to execute certain actions that will be very useful. I really can't wait to try out this voice command feature of Mi Band 4!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLike as the other previous Mi Bands, it will be priced very competitively as it is the price tag that has been propelling Xiaomi's wrist wearables to the number 1 spot globally. Mi Band 4 will be available in 2 different variants. The version with NFC support will only cost you US$33 (RM140) while the one without NFC will only cost you US$25 (RM100); In other words, Mi Band 4 is ridiculously cheap with all the amazing hardware upgrades that they have made. I really want to get one as it is freaking affordable, right?\n\n\n\n\n\nAvengers assemble and put on your Mi Band 4!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSo it comes with customized Face Watch as well huh!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI want this Ironman Limited Edition Mi Band 4!\n\n\nOK~those who love Avengers will be happy to know that there will be Avengers Limited Edition Mi Band 4. There are 3 different colours to choose from and each of them sports a unique colour band (black, red and blue), a custom metal dial (Avenger's Logo, Captain America's Shield and Ironman) as well as a matching metal wrist buckle. Honestly I think it is cool especially the Ironman version. The Avengers limited edition Mi Band 4 comes with a cheap price tag of US$50 (RM200) which I think is still relatively cheap. Mi Band 4 will be available starting from 14th of June! :)\n"} {"title": "4 Burning Questions About the Huawei Debacle-Will China Fight Back?", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nI have always known that Donald Trump loves to play with fire. But his latest attempt 5 days ago saw him burning more than just his flimsy hair...but then again does he even know what he is really doing? To say that a POTUS is ignorant will be completely senseless and he wields so much intelligence at his disposal. I am wondering if the majority of his board members are agreeable to his plans? We all know what happens to those who crossed Trump just like in the case of the FBI director who was fired! So here are my 4 burning questions about the Huawei Debacle:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIs Trump right?\n\n\n\n4 Burning Questions About The Huawei Debacle\n\n\n\nThe first question that I will raise today is...is there any concrete irrefutable evidence to show that China is actually spying on the Americans? Is there really any cloak and dagger espionage going on? I doubt.\nCan we still trust Google which has been weaponized by Trump? It is a shame that this is actually happening and it is a wake up call for all of us as Google knows everything about us.\nWhy Huawei consumers outside of USA need to bear the brunt of Donald Trump? Is that even fair? I am sure Google could have tweaked this to ensure that not everyone will be victimized by this stupid decision.\nWhat will China do now? It is obvious that more guns are being trained on China at the moment and this will only get worse from here. Will China continues to sit still and allow themselves to be pushed around?\n\n\n\n\nA tumultuous week for Huawei!\n\n\n\n1-FALSE ALARM OR MALICE INTENTION?\n\n\nI am sure if Donald Trump has the proof, he would have shown it to the world by now. He loves showing off to the world how good and correct he is right? So it makes me wonder why there is still nothing for us public to see? Or is this just an extension to the ongoing trade war? But then again it is his right to \"protect\" his citizens as he wants the best for them, \"RIGHT\"?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe know that China has been hacking everyone...\n\nBut is Huawei being made the scapegoat here?\n\n\n\n2-GOOGLE CAN BE WEAPONIZED\n\n\nIt is shocking to note that Google has actually allowed themselves to be \"weaponized\" by the American government or more precisely Donald Trump. Did they agree to the banning order meekly or do they put up any fight at all? Aren't Google products supposed to help better humanity and serve everyone regardless of our differences and beliefs? This fiasco has shown us that we cannot TRUST Google and it will be foolish to rely heavily on this company in the future. We will never know when they will turn their backs on us again. Though Google made a U-turn saying that Huawei will still be receiving temporary licence and updates for existing devices, damages have been done and their credibility has taken a huge blow if not a serious dent!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan we still trust Google?\n\n\n\n3-PICK A SIDE\n\n\nWhen Trump declared that Huawei products should not be supported by other American products (Google, Intel etc.), did he know that the ripples will be felt by everyone outside of America? Perhaps he knew and that was exactly his intention. Support him (America) or go bust! In case he does not know this, outside of his little bubble in America, most of the universal civilians are not fond of him. His latest miscalculated\u00a0 move will land him into hot water if not boiling water. If people (outside of USA) were to pick a side, it would definitely not be him!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow will the rest of the world view this Huawei banning fiasco?\n\n\n\n4-IS IT TIME TO RETALIATE?\n\n\nSince January 2018, America has been engaged in a trade war with China after Trump becomes the president. Both sides insist that the other party was guilty of abusing International system and being involved in unfair practices. On paper it appears that Trump has been thumping his chests and pushing the Great Wall of China around. Likewise, China is unbelievably tolerant and is actively trying to resolve the differences between them. But is this Huawei Debacle the last straw for China? We will see. I am really hoping that China will retaliate and cut off America from their country altogether. It will be interesting to see how this unfolds. It is a fact that the Chinese Economy is more resilient and has the depth that the Americans do not possess. Let's see.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is time for China to fight back before they lose more grounds!\n\n\n\n\nAs it stands now, a lot of people are beginning to side with China and see them as the victim in this botched situation. Even my colleagues have begun to tell me that they are considering boycotting American products such as Facebook and Apple gadgets. I was shocked to hear this but I guess it is only natural. Ask anyone outside of China and they will immediately tell you that the government of America is playing with fire that they might not be able to extinguish later. Will they bury the hatchets or one will perish? Who will prevail in the end? Let's see.\n\n\nImages credits:\u00a0Shutterstock\n"} {"title": "Top 3 Gadgets I Saw at Taiwan Excellence Hi-Tech Week [Plaza Low Yat]", "body": "\n\n\n\nIf you are looking for the coolest and most innovative gadgets in Malaysia right now, head over to Plaza Low Yat where the Taiwan Excellence Hi-Tech Week will be taking place.

My work requires me to have a lot of information at my fingertips. Hence Plustek eScan A150 is the solution that I believe companies need to invest in. For starters, this standalone innovative scanner which does not need to be hooked to a computer can immediately turn documents into processable and shareable information. You can scan to applications, email, fax servers and more in just a few simple steps!\n\n\n\n\n\nThe scanner that all offices and home need!\n\n\n\nI was pleasantly surprised to know that setup is hassle free as you just need to plug and play to get the scanner up and running...I mean scanning.

In fact, I am so intrigued by this pyramid-shaped gadget that I had to probe the person in charge more about its functionality and how it works. It is a patented Sleep Frequency Technology (SFT) device that can allow you to enjoy quality sleep. In fact I believe every family needs to invest in one SleepBank as sleeping is one of the most important thing we all need.\n\n\n\n\n\nEveryone needs this SleepBank!\n\n\n\nHow does SleepBank weave its magic? According to the marketer, the device utilizes 3 different technology to generate a natural field that makes your body relax, slow down your brain waves and prolong your deep sleep.\n\n\nHarmonic Resonance with Schumann Resonance Frequency: Purify your sleeping environment and create a protective mask.\nSFT Deep Sleep Requency: Induces relaxation by easing your chaotic state of mind to promote deep sleep.\nAnalog North and South Magnetic Field: Helps to restore the natural balance of the body.\n\n\nIt is easy to use this device thanks to its one-button operation and if you were to use it 8 hours daily for 365 days, it will only cost you a negligible electricity bill of RM1.50 (for the whole year).

In fact the putrid stench of the haze is still palpable even when we have bolted all the windows and doors while we are in the \"comfort\" of our home. This is so wrong! This is worsened by the searing temperature that comes with the sweltering heatwave. So not only that we have to deal with the blistering hot spell, the very air that we breathe in has become extremely dirty as well even inside our own home.\n\n\n\n\n\nMe unboxing my new air purifier! :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am well aware that I need to solve both these problems of filthy, hazy air and hot weather at the same time. There is no way I am going to risk the health of my little Jordan and Jasmine by allowing them to breathe in the dirty air.\u00a0Hence I need an air purifier that will cleanse whatever that we inhale inside our home; In other words an air purifier that really works properly. So after searching high and low, I finally found what I need to keep my family safe and healthy...and not to mention cool too during this hot and stuffy spell!\n\n\n\n\n\nMy Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan\n\n\n\n\n\nIt comes with a beautiful magnetized remote\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's time to breathe in pure, fresh, clean air. :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold my new Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan which is my answer to beat the haze and heatwave. Though initially I was held back by its relatively eye-watering price tag, I immediately decided to get one the moment I realized how effective it is in purifying our dirty air (read on to find out). I believe my investment in health with Dyson Pure Cool technology will give me peace of mind for the sake of my beloved family especially my two little ones.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Both of them are so happy with their new \"fan\". :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook ma~no blades!\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at how excited they were. :)\n\n\n\nSome of you might ask, do we really need an air purifier when we are at home? You see unless you are living in an air-tight vacuum house, you will really need a good air purifier as we will be spending the bulk of our time in our home sweet home. Sadly our home can no longer be considered to be clean anymore as pollutants from outside can easily permeates the air in our home, rendering it to be unhealthy. Imagine breathing in the dirty air that seeps into your home for 12 hours even when you are sleeping!\u00a0 NO WAY I am going to let my wife and children breathe in those dirty air particles and clog their lungs! That is why yours truly me have invested in Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan. The following are my reasons:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6 Reasons Why Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan Is The Best Air Purifier\n\n\n\n1-Real Time Air Quality Reading\n\nWhat really impresses me is the presence of an LCD display that will actually show me the air quality around me in real-time on the spot. This means that the Dyson air purifier will automatically sense and detect all the particles as well as gases and reveal the exact readings or air pollution thanks to the state-of-the-art Dyson algorithm. On top of that, the sensors can also also pick up humidity level and temperature accurately.\n\n\n\n\n\nReal-time air quality reading!\n\n\n\n\nUnderstanding the air around you\n\n\n\n2-Purifies with 360 Degree\u00a0Filtration System\u00a0\n\nThe ability to capture a whopping 99.95% of ultrafine particles as small as 0.1 microns makes Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan one of the best air purifiers in the market. The best part is, the filtration system can suck, capture and filter air not only from one direction but every single direction thanks to its 360 degree filtration system which really sets it apart from the competition. So no pollutants can run and hide! The fully-sealed filter system consists of activated carbon and a Glass HEPA filter that will remove almost all (99.95%) of pollutants that are invisible to our naked eyes. In other words, the air in your home will now be fresh and clean.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3-Purified Air For Every Inch of the Room\n\nThis is yet another interesting feature that helps me to make up my mind to get this air purifier from Dyson. Thanks to its unique Air Multiplier technology and the new 350 degree oscillation (YES 350 degree!), every inch of the room will be projected and filled with purified, clean air. You can choose to oscillate it either at 45\u2070, 90\u2070, 180\u2070\u00a0and of course 350\u2070. Honestly, this is something that a normal air purifier will not be able to do. Two thumbs up for this feature!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProject purified air in every direction\n\n\n\n\nThis is how Air Multiplier Technology works\n\n\n\n4-Beautiful Sexy Design\n\nOK! I don't want to brag but this new machine of mine is really a head turner. Family members, relatives and friends were stunned the moment they lay their eyes on my sexy air purifier. Honestly, even I can't help but to admire its beautiful aesthetic lines and design which really make it a fashion statement to say the least. It fits every corner of the house! By the way, I really love this sleek Nickel Black air purifier of mine~it exudes so much enigma and class to it. Dayum!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeauty and the Beast\n\n\n\n\n5-Dyson Link App\n\nThough Dyson has included a beautiful (again this is amazingly designed) curved, magnetized remote control to put it neatly on top of the purifier, I can actually control my air purifier by using the Dyson Link App using my smartphone. Besides having the same features as the physical remote control, I can also track the daily or weekly air quality where my air purifier is placed. On top of that I can schedule when I want it to be automatically turned on and off. Speaking about intuitive design huh!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLinking Dyson Link App with the air purifier\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWorks like the real remote\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and After\n\n\n\n\nNow they can sleep better at night. :)\n\n\n\n6-Rigorous Testing To Create The Perfect Air Purifier\n\nThis is one of the most important reasons why I choose Dyson purifying technology. Do you know that it took 2,605 prototypes to create the perfect Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan that we see right now? The rigorous testing (POLAR Test Chamber) is done to reflect real living spaces to ensure that the air is purified anywhere in the whole room. For your information other normal air purifiers will only cleanse the air around the machine and not the whole room. Obviously not all air purifiers are the same.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOf course there are so many other features that I have yet to mention such as Night Time Mode which I use a lot as the purifier will shift to its quietest settings and dim the LCD display to ensure we will have a good night's sleep. So if you are looking for an air purifier to beat the haze and a cooling fan to sizzle down the heatwave, you should really consider this Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan. It is time for you to breathe in healthy, cool air in your own home! This is the de facto air purifier which checks all the boxes. Period. :)\n\n\n\n\nNow I can sleep better as well....ZZZzzzz *snore*\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can get your very own Dyson air purifier at shop.dyson.my\n\nDyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan: RM2,829\nDyson Pure Cool Purifying Desk Fan: RM2,259\n\n"} {"title": "4 Easy Tips to Capture Better Videos on Mobile Devices", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nOver the years the cameras on mobile devices have improved by leaps and bounds and today most can easily record High Definition (HD) quality videos. However that alone does not determine how your videos will turn out \u2013 as you may already realize. If you want to capture better videos on mobile devices, you need to know how to use the camera to your advantage. That is where the following easy tips can help:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA tripod will help to steady any mobile phone.\n\n\n\n\n1-Keep The Camera Steady and Avoid Moving\n\nWhile you\u2019re recording you should try to keep the camera steady \u2013 to the point of being perfectly still if possible. The less you move the camera or your body, the clearer your video will look. To keep the camera steady you should always hold in in both hands and keep it close to your body so that your arms are near your sides for additional support. If you find this too tiring or still have difficulty, you could use a tripod or find some other way to keep the camera stable.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlways opt for the best\n\n\n\n\n2-Record in The Highest Resolution and Frame Rate\n\nBoth the resolution and frame rate are important to the overall video quality. The resolution will affect the definition of the video and how sharp it looks. On the other hand the frame rate will affect its smoothness \u2013 especially when there is movement in the shot. Try recording at a resolution of 1080p and a frame rate of 30 at least \u2013 though if either one can be higher, you should increase them.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTry to find the light\n\n\n\n\n3-Find Good Lighting and Position Yourself to Take Advantage of It\n\nLighting can have a big impact on the videos you record using mobile devices because their sensor is generally smaller than DSLR cameras. Ideally you should always make sure there is plenty of light \u2013 preferably diffused so that it doesn\u2019t cast hard shadows. If you\u2019re recording outdoors you should try capturing videos during the golden hour. On the other hand if you\u2019re indoors you could use softboxes to provide diffused light, or even set up a basic three-point lighting configuration.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUse a mic\n\n\n\n\n4-Use An External Microphone\n\nIf you\u2019re recording audio and intend to keep it \u2013 you need an external microphone. The built-in microphone on mobile devices won\u2019t cut it, and the audio quality will probably drag down the entire video. Even a mid-range external microphone can improve the audio that you record by leaps and bounds. However for best results you should get the right type of microphone, such as a shotgun mic to record audio from a certain location.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn addition to these steps it can help to know how to edit videos. Few videos are perfect when they are first recorded, and most could do with adjustments to the white balance, colors, stabilization, and more. If you want you could even create a photo video from stills arranged in a time-lapse effect. If you use the tips described above, the impact they have on your videos should be readily apparent. From there you can build on them further by experimenting and getting more experience in the process.\n\n\nImages credits: Shutterstock\n\n"} {"title": "Energizer Power Max P18K Pop Smartphone With A Monstrous 18,000 mAh Battery", "body": "\n\n\n\nI am\u00a0 sure by now when it comes to smartphone innovation, a lot of us would love to see something unique and different; Something that we have never experienced before like folding smartphones, dual-display devices or one with 5 cameras mounted at the back.\u00a0 How about taking something that we already have and need and then supersized it? That is exactly what Energizer did with their latest Power Max P18K! So what did they supersize? Battery of course duh and 18,000 mAh of juice to be precise! OMG!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold the Energizer Power Max P18K Pop\n\n\n\nOf course we are all aware that when Energize rolls out their latest smartphone, it is going to go big on battery right? Maybe say...around 6,000 mAh or 7,000 mAh right? Then again nobody is expecting them to cram a whopping 18,000 mAh of juice into their smartphone. This capacity is totally more than most of the powerbank(s) that you have in your pocket or bag right now. How do they even do that?\n\n\n\n\n\nThe back sports a very beautiful finish\n\n\n\nTo fit 18k of battery juice into the back of a smartphone is not an easy task at all. So far, there is no cutting edge technology that will allow you to have huge battery and pack in a small form factor. Just ask Samsung about their explosive Galaxy Note 7. So instead of trying to shrink the device, the team from Energizer decided to just flaunt the \"extra size\" of their new Power Max P18K Pop. Why hide it when you can just embrace that little extra thickness. It is a brick no doubt, but it will be a really good one!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo is this thickness pocket-able? :D\n\n\n\nHow thick you may ask? So with that added 18k of juice, the device is 3cm (30mm) thick which I think is a bit funny but totally acceptable. Why? Imagine you are lugging your smartphone and another powerbank in your pocket or bag, that will be more than 3cm or thickness most of the time right? Then you have the deal the mess that comes with the cables and what not. So to me, that extra that 1.5cm or 2cm is nothing when you can have battery that will last you for 50 days! The best part is, Energizer claims that you can watch 200 hours of video playback on a single charge!\u00a0 Dayum! This sounds like a phone that you can bring into the jungle. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nI thought the front-facing selfie camera looks\n\nreally good (though the idea was borrowed)\n\n\n\nThought it looks like a brick, it is surprisingly comfortable to hold as it is slightly curved in a way so that it fits snugly in your grip. Under its hood, Power Max P18K Pop is powered by MediaTek Helip P70 processor, complemented by 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. There is even micro SDcard storage to expand your storage needs. Good specifications if you ask me.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo far this smartphone has the longest-lasting\n\nbattery to date...like really, really long!\n\n\n\nYou will be greeted by the huge 6.2-inch Full HD display without any notch and it sports really razor thin bezels. Why notch-less? Apparently, Energizer has borrowed something from Vivo NEX Pop-up camera idea and integrate it into this new smartphone of their. With the touch of a button, the selfie camera will pop up featuring 12MP + 2MP camera module.\u00a0Quite nifty for a smartphone which huge battery if you ask me. Flip the device to the back and you will see the triple-rear cameras that will be your main shooters!\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you think you will want this smartphone with super battery?\n\n\n\nIt is said that Energizer Power Max P18K Pop can even be used to jump start your car's battery in times of emergency. I am sure this is doable since they have done extensive research. Of course this smartphone can be a powerbank for other devices or smartphones with its OTG charging. So do you think you will need such smartphone? It comes with a US$799 (RM3,200) price tag and will land in Malaysia around July.\n"} {"title": "Russell Taylors Air Fryer-My Honest Review", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nI once thought that air fryer is just a fancy kitchen gadget that will turn into a white elephant soon after you have unwrapped the lavish packaging; I was also very skeptical about the food that you cook with this so-called \"frying using the air\" technology. I asked myself, \"Will the food even be edible let alone tasty?\" Those are the questions that have been stopping me from believing in any air fryer until...I was introduced to this Russell Taylors' Air Fryer. Honestly after trying it for the first time, my perception of food cooked by air fryer has completely changed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Introducing Russell Taylors Air Fryer\n\n\n\nBenefits of using this air fryer\n\n\n\nWhat can you do with an air fryer?\n\n\n\nLet's unbox my air fryer right now. :)\n\n\n\nFirst and foremost, for those uninitiated non-believer like the previous me, an air fryer uses hot air convection to cook your food. In other words, instead of using OIL to fry your food, an air fryer will use AIR to cook your meals. This translates to less oil/fat being used and ultimately you will get to enjoy healthier food which is equally delicious if not better. So what is the secret of this Russell Taylors air fryer? Apparently it utilizes advanced, rapid hot air circulation technology to cook your food from all angles swiftly and evenly.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0I can't help but fall in love with this air fryer of mine.\n\n\n\n\n\nSleek and elegant\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI got myself the Russell Taylors Digital Air Fryer AF-36 XL which is the company's biggest air fryer (4.8 liters) to date. Right after I had ripped the box open, I was greeted by this sleek, jet-black coloured air fryer which really looks like a fashion statement on its own. Its design is simple, yet it exudes so much elegance to it that it can be placed in any corner in my kitchen. The digital panel nestled on top of the machine makes it even more remarkable, giving it that premium, sophisticated touch. OK! I was totally swooned by its look; Can it walk the talk? Let's see.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo how do we use this Russell Taylors air fryer?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nPush forward the transparent button to reveal the frying basket\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJust look at the huge capacity!\n\n\n\n\nUsing the air fryer for the very first time was truly effortless as it was easy to operate even without reading the manual (but you are advised to read it first :p). Pretty intuitive if you ask me! After holding the hand grip, all you need to do is to push the \"transparent squarish button\" forward to draw out the pan which is nestling the frying basket. To separate the basket from the pan, just press the dial underneath the transparent button to release the basket. This mechanism allows you to wash the pan and basket after dishing out your meals.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime to cook?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen in doubt, do refer to the manual...which I didn't because it was really easy to use.\n\n\n\n\nSo how do we cook our food such as chicken or fish using the air fryer? It is pretty easy. Basically all you need to do is to put whatever you want to cook into the basket and push the pan into the air fryer again. Then the digital control panel will be activated, prompting you how you would like your food to be cooked. You can either control it manually in terms of temperature and timer or you can use the cooking preset menu (there are 7 to choose from) to cook your food. As for me, I cooked my fish and chicken just by using the preset menu, sat back and relaxed! It was really, really easy. After 20 minutes or so, my perfectly air-fried fish and chickens are\u00a0 ready to be served! Voila~it is time to feast!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife was really excited to use her air fryer.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHere we go...\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0You can either set the temperature and timer manually or...\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can use the preset menu to cook your food. EASY!\n\n\n\n\nIs the food cooked by my Russell Taylors Air Fryer tasty? Is it better than conventional cooking using wok and pan? The verdict is... *drum roll* the fish and chicken cooked by using the air fryer were really, really more delicious and flavourful compared to traditional way of cooking them *gasped*. To be brutally honest, I did not expect them to taste this scrumptious as I had always believed nothing beats wok and pan. How wrong was I.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDing! The fish is ready to be served!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at my happy wife, holding her perfectly cooked fish minus the odour. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nCrispy on the outside but tender and juicy on the inside!\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is easy to prepare dinner with our air fryer now.\n\n\n\n\nThe skin of the fish was so crispy and yet not a single drop of oil was used to fry the fish. The fish was fried to perfection and the meat was so tender, sweet and juicy. I believe the air frying technology can lock the juice in the meat, giving the fish that lips-smacking goodness! I was really taken aback with the results to be honest. Moving on, we threw in 6 pieces of chicken wings (yeah~the frying basket is really big) into the air fryer and waited for them to be cooked. We pressed the desired menu and voila in no time our sleek, jet-black air fryer was beeping, informing us that our chicken wings are ready!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow about chicken wings?\n\n\n\n\nVisually, all 6 of the chicken wings were air fried flawlessly as you can tell by looking at the golden brown texture of the skin. But how about the taste? I sank my teeth into the chicken wings and oh my God~immediately I knew that the chicken wings were masterfully cooked. Like the fish, the chicken meat was delicate and lusciously delectable. How was this even possible? Again it was because of the all-angle rapid air technology used by Russell Taylors. I am truly impressed to say the least.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur chicken wings are ready.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMasterfully cooked without the need to flip the chicken wings or deal with any popping hot oil!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHealthy golden brown chicken wings\n\n\n\n\nEven my wife who is one of the greatest cooks that I have known, gives her nod of approval for this air fryer. Moreover she claims that besides cooking fish, chicken or whatever we desire to perfection, the use of air fryer also means that she can free up her time to do something else while waiting for our food to be served. This is what we call convenience right? My wife also loves the air fryer because she does not need to sniff in those odours while frying her fish or chicken anymore. Thanks to the integrated air filter, the use of air fryer also means that your cooking will be clean and your kitchen will be odourless. Thumbs up!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey is really, really happy with the chicken wings.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe chicken wings were really finger-licking good!\n\n\n\n\nSo can an air fryer replace your wok and pan? The answer is no. However I must admit that an air fryer is a must-have cooking companion to complement your cooking experience. I am really, really happy to get this huge air fryer for my wife. Now she can can cook tasty dinner for us every single day. In fact this air fryer is also a multi-cooker which means you can bake a cake, grill calamari and even roast a whole chicken with it! Dayum! I am drooling right now.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am really happy with my Russell Taylors Digital Air Fryer AF-36\n\n\n\n\nThe best part is, this high-quality Russell Taylors air fryer only cost me around RM250 and it comes with 1 year warranty which is an absolute value for money if you ask me. My wife is very, very happy with her latest kitchen helper so lots brownie points for me *wink wink*.

A few companies think that the notch is ugly and they intend to incorporate the front-facing camera rather differently. NEX Pop-up Camera smartphone and NEX Dual Display are two of the smartphones from Vivo which believe there is more to life than just notches. Oppo also introduced their Find X which boasts futuristic hidden motorized camera that looks damn awesome! Clearly, the notch will be a thing in the past in 2019!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDesign & Display\n\nIntroducing Honor View 20 which is the world's first (outside of China) smartphone with hole-punch camera. When you first lay your eyes on the smartphone, you will not notice the 'hole-punch' camera on the top left corner of the display. Obviously without the notch, the screen looks much bigger right? You will appreciate the huge beautiful 6.4-inch Full HD+ IPS LCD display with a resolution of 2310x1080 with a broader aspect ratio. In other words, the display is wider in our hand.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo what happens after the notch had been replaced by a hole-punch camera? Interestingly, apps will extend its display even beyond the hole-punch area which means there will be tricky, testing situations whereby you might not hit the 'x' to close certain menus or advertisements. Then again it might not be a problem after all as most apps will simply just ignore the existence of the camera to function normally. Nonetheless this hole-punch display by Honor is really amazing since the company has actually outdone its more premium sibling-Huawei.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhich is your favourite colour?\n\n\nBesides the gorgeous display, View 20 can definitely be a fashion statement on its own thanks to its aesthetic. Flip the phone to the back and you will be greeted by the stunning V-patterned finish which reflects light to become a visual spectacle. The solid aluminium frame and smooth curved glass give the device a very premium finish. The buttons are interestingly made of metal and you can even spot the rare\u00a0 sight of 3.5mm headphone jack. I am glad that Honor did not do an iPhone with this latest marvel of theirs.\n\n\n\n\n\nPerformance & Specification\nUnder the hood, View 20 is powered by Kirin 980 octa-core chipset which has different cores to handle different tasks individually at the same time. It is also complemented by a whopping 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. Sadly microSD card slot is missing, which is real bummer of a shutterbug like me. For its price point, this smartphone is really a bargain for those who want power for gaming, work or entertainment.\n\n\n\n\n\nUp close and personal\n\n\nBesides the fingerprint reader at the back, there is also Face Recognition which utilizes the front camera for you to log into your device securely. Of course we would have preferred an in-display fingerprint scanner. Guess that's how their differentiate the flagships between Honor and Huawei. In terms of battery, the device is powered by 4,000mAh cell which can last your for 2 days for moderate usage. It supports 22.5W SuperCharge through USB-C and of course wireless charging is also absent for the reason we have mentioned earlier.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nView 20 Cameras\nIt is not a secret that more and more companies are focusing on cameras as this id no doubt the most-used feature in a smartphone. It appears that Honor View 20 is firing full cylinders in this department as well with its 48MP rear Sony camera, paired with a huge sensor and fast f/1.8 aperture. That is really a lot of resolution to capture images with lots of details. The second rear camera-3D TOF (Time of Flight) is there to detect depth, to help you blur backgrounds and what not for your bokehs and portrait shots. Flip the phone to the front and you will get your 25MP f/2.0 front-facing camera which of course can help you to take flawless selfies.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo is Honor View 20 the flagship budget smartphone that you have been waiting for? With triple antenna setup and Link Turbo (4G+WiFi) and dual-frequency (L1+L5) GPS thrown in, it is a bargain for its relatively mid-range price tag. The Honor View 20 is going to be officially unveiled in Malaysia for sale for this coming Saturday (26th January 2019) with an expected retail price of RM2,199. There will be a roadshow at 1Utama in conjunction with the release of View 20. So which do you prefer? The notch or this hole-punch camera? \ud83d\ude01\n"} {"title": "The 4 Cameras of Samsung Galaxy A9", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nAfter being bombarded with ads after ads on TV, my interest for Samsung Galaxy A9 has certainly spiked tremendously.

Nope...no four cameras here. Just one. The cameras come with Scene Optimizer which is capable of recognizing up to 19 different scenes. If you have taken a bad shot, the camera will inform you via its Flaw Detection feature. I guess it will be annoying if you keep on getting prompts telling you how bad you are at taking photos. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fingerprint scanner will be at the back and you can unlock the phone using the front-facing camera unlike Vivo NEX Dual Display. LOL :D The other are the usual bells and whistles such as Bluetooth 5.0, 802.11ac WIFI, NFC and device comes with Android 8.0 Oreo. Galaxy A9 will be juiced by a huge 3,800 mAh battery and it does support fast-charging via USB Type-C.\u00a0 I wonder if the cameras will really work as advertised. Gotta check it out soon.

Girls and social butterflies aiming for perfect shots will be yearning for this smartphone.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUp front, you will be greeted by a huge 6.39-inch edge-to-edge Full HD+ display while the rare back display, which is comparatively smaller than the primary one is still considered huge at 5.49-inch. Besides boasting generous screen estate at the back, it the rear display pushes Full FD (1920x1080) with an aspect ration of 16:9, which is not bad at all for a secondary display. Both the front and back displays are Super AMOLED so your eyes can get to enjoy visually pleasing vivid colours. The primary front display flaunts 91.63% of screen to body ration.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10GB of RAM is a lot...\n\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, NEX Dual Display is powered by Snapdragon 845 processor which is similar to its predecessor. The difference is in terms of RAM. Instead of getting \"only\" 8GB of RAM, this latest dual-screen magic runs on 10GB of RAM which is a lot if you ask me. As for space, you will have 128GB of internal storage which is...non expandable. This is really a bummer for tirgger happy shutterbugs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe triple camera setup of Vivo NEX Dual Display\n\n\n\n\nDoing away with the motorized camera means the latest reincarnation of NEX will not have a front-facing camera for your selfies. Instead, you will be relying on the rear cameras to snap all your photos. At the back, you will see the triple-camera system that is situated at the top horizontally. The main camera utilizes Sony's IMX363 sensor which boasts 4-axis OIS. The secondary shooter is a 2MP camera while the third TOF camera is used to sense 3D depth.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn-display fingerprint sensor and facial recognition\n\n\n\n\nOne very interesting addition that is integrated is the \"Lunar Ring\" in the rear display. This round element actually extends along the main cameras. It can be used as a soft light for you to snap your perfect selfies. Besides making your photos more Instagrammable, the Lunar Ring also doubles up as a notification light. It can illuminate in different hues based on your apps notifications which I think is brilliant!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nthe 2-in-1 Lunar Ring\n\n\n\n\nJust like its older sibling, you will have the luxury of using in-display sensor to unlock the phone. If you prefer to use your pretty face to unlock your device, you will have to flip to the back to use the cameras to do so, which is a bit less intuitive. Then again you can still straight away use the secondary-rear display right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis latest wonder by Vivo is juiced by a 3,500mAh battery pack which is considered a bit small because now you will have to displays to drain your battery. Then again I am sure the power management of device would have been tweaked to ensure it is more efficient and long-lasting without the need to be plugged to the wall all the time. Are you excited to own this special smartphone. Vivo NEX Dual Display Edition will be available to all Malaysians on the 10th of January for a price tag of RM3,199.\n"} {"title": "Amazing offers for Latest tech Gadgets & Fashion in Malaysia", "body": "\nMalaysia is a country that is among the four Asian nations that have surpassed its technology and latest fashion collection.

So for only RM199, you can get to enjoy 1Gbps of Internet speed which is 10X faster than what Unifi is offering. Such competitive pricing is god for the consumers and it proves that a company can still earn profile while offering high quality products and services without relaying the cost to the customers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCheapest 100Mbps fibre broadband in Malaysia\n\n\n\nIn line with their more affordable pricing strategy, Time is also offering the cheapest 100Mbps Internet broadband plan in Malaysia which costs only RM99 per month. This is definitely a boon for those who are looking to spend less on Internet subscription fee. With the newly revamped broadband plans, Time is offering 500Mbps of fibre broadband for only Rm139 per month and their fastest is the aforementioned 1Gbps at RM199 monthly.\n\n\n\n\n\nJust by paying RM139, you can already enjoy 500Mbps of ultra-fast Internet\n\n\n\nAll the three packages come with 24 months contract which I honestly feel is truly fair, given how affordable the plans are in the first place. On top of that, you will even get RM100 rebate if you\u00a0 sign up online. Should you wish to opt for the shorter 12-month contract instead, you will need to fork out a one-time charge of RM300 and you will not get to enjoy the RM100 rebate as well. Hence it makes perfect sense to choose the 2 years contract tenure.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen it comes to speed, Time fibre broadband are symmetrical for both its 100Mbps and 500Mbps plans which means both download and upload speed will be the same. However, for the 1Gbps plan your upload speed will be halved at 500Mbps instead which is still unbelievably fast! Of course the quota for all the Time's fibre Broadband plans (100Mbps, 500Mbps and 1Gbps) is UNLIMITED! Yes, unlimited quota for all the broadband plans rolled out by Time regardless of you package and price you are paying. So no discrimination or pressure to sign up more expensive packages. *hint hint*\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you still need to call?\n\n\n\nIf you need to make any phone calls, by default you will be charged at 10 cents per minute on a pay per use basis. By adding RM2.50 per month, you can enjoy Voice Home Lite which comes with 30 minutes of free calls while Voice Home Max comes with 300 minutes. All the add-ons come with 1 free complementary DECT phone and of course a 24-month contract as well. Then again I doubt most of us will actually be making a lot of phone calls these days.\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's TIME to enjoy your Internet.\n\n\n\nExisting customers of Time can rejoice as they will automatically be upgraded to the new broadband plans for free (of course). Existing 100Mbps customers will be upgraded to 500Mbps, while the existing 300Mbps and 500Mbps customers will have their respective broadband plans upgraded to the fastest 1Gbps fibre broadband plan for free. As it stands for now, Time is offering the cheapest and faster fibre Internet Broadband plans in Malaysia. How I wish that I can actually enjoy their Internet plan as well. Too bad, coverage is kinda limited right now for a lot of people outside of KL. I hope Time will expedite their coverage for other Malaysians to enjoy \"cheap\" Internet connectivity.[Check Your Internet Speed Now]Check your Internet Speed\u00a0HERE (Internet Speed Test)\u00a0to find out if you should upgrade your Internet broadband plans.\n"} {"title": "4 Most Popular Video Formats And What They\u2019re Good For", "body": "\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile you\u2019re probably aware of the fact that there are lots of video formats out there \u2013 do you know which are the most popular? More importantly are you familiar enough with them that you know what they\u2019re good for and why they\u2019re used so frequently?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDeveloping a better understanding of video formats will let you choose the right format if you ever want to encode a video or transcode one to a different format. With that in mind there are four video formats right now that are very popular, and you should definitely know about:\n\n\n\nMP4 with H.264\n\n\nOver the years\nMP4 with H.264 has become the most popular and widely-supported format. Its\ninitial rise was mostly because of how versatile it was and its ability to\ncompress audio and video separately.\n\n\n\nSimply put MP4\nwith H.264 provided smaller file sizes, was more compatible with mobile\ndevices, and HTML5 supported it. It is still the recommended format of choice\nfor most online platforms, such as indicated in YouTube\u2019srecommended upload settings.\n\n\n\nMKV with H.265\n\n\nLargely seen as\nthe would-be successor to MP4 with H.264, MKV with H.265 has strengths on\nseveral fronts. For starters the MKV container itself is open-source and can\nsupport practically any feature that is required \u2013 whereas the H.265 codec is\nthe successor to H.264 and provides better compression.\n\n\n\nFor now the\nformat is not as widely-supported as its predecessor, but support for it is\ngrowing consistently. In time it could very well supplant MP4 completely.\n\n\n\nMPEG-2\n\n\nAs you may have\nguessed MPEG-2 is an old format that is several generations behind MP4. However\nit remains popular to this very day due to the fact that it is the format that\nis used in DVDs.\n\n\n\nAlthough newer\nDVD players have started to support other formats (such as MP4 with H.264) the\nmajority still only cater to MPEG-2. In short if you want to burn a video to a\nDVD, it needs to be in this format.\n\n\n\nAV1 codec\n\n\nRecently the AV1codec was released and it has been making waves since then. It offers\nbetter compression rates than H.265, is designed to be future-proof, and is\nopen-source and loyalty-free.\n\n\n\nWhile still in\nits early days, AV1 appears to be a legitimate challenger to H.265 and will\nlikely compete against it for dominance. It is expected to gain widespread\nadoption over the next 2 years.\n\n\n\nAs you can see each of these formats is\npopular for a different reason \u2013 or will be in the not too distant future. In\nfact you may even see how you could use some of this to your advantage, for\nexample learning how\nto convert a DVD to MP4 will help you to improve its compression.\n\n\n\n\n\nConverting made easy\n\n\n\nKeep in mind that newer formats are\nconstantly emerging with various new features and better types of compression.\nIt may very well be the case that in a few years a completely different format\nwill be more popular than any of the ones listed above.\n"} {"title": "Apple Watch Series 4 Is The Life-saving Smartwatch That We All Need", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nTo be completely honest, I don't really fancy Apple iPhones as they are considered an unnecessary luxury that we should not be splurging our money on. Then again, I must admit that I am utterly flabbergasted with the latest release of Apple Watch-the Series 4. After it was unveiled, I must say that it is the best smartwatch I have seen so far in 2018. No other smart timepieces can even be mentioned in the same breath as the one crafted by Apple.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt was obvious that Apple is planning to be ahead of the rest with their new Watch Series 4. The display of the smartwatch is 30% bigger than its predecessor and the bezel has been trimmed down significantly as well to complement the stunning display. Apart from the beautiful screen, the speaker has been significantly improved and it is now 50% louder for optimized experience of using Siri, Walkie-Talkie feature and of course calls. Apple has also repositioned the microphone so that echoes can be reduced to to deliver crispy and vivid sound.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLife better life!\n\n\n\nAll these while I thought that smartwatches are merely for notification and well...tracking your fitness though not many has truly fulfilled this claim realistically. Here is where Watch Series 4 from Apple is different from the rest. It actually helps you to live a better life and it even has the capability to save your precious life. The vastly improved health tracking mechanism built in it makes saving your life a possibility now. Read on to find out!\n\n\n\n\n\nNow comes with newly-added electrodes.\n\n\n\nBesides housing optical sensor at the back of the smartwatch, electrodes have also been integrated into the sapphire glass underneath the Digital Crown. Thanks to these added new sensors, Watch Series 4 can now read ECG (ElectroCardioGram) right on your wrist! You just need to launch the app and touch the crown with your finger and the smartwatch will do the rest. Voila! It only takes 30 seconds for the ECG to be read.\n\n\n\n\n\nApple Watch Series 4 can read your ECG with 98% accuracy\n\n\n\nHere's the astonishing news: Watch Series 4 is the first smartwatch to be approved by FDA for its ECG reader. FDA has released its study using the watch it was 98% at detecting atrial fibrillation (AF).\u00a0 Do you know that atrial fibrillation can lead to stroke? Hence this feature alone will be valid reason for us to buy this life-saving timekeeper! On a side note, these recordings can be saved in the Health App and shared with your doctors.\n\n\n\n\n\nIt knows when you have fallen.\n\n\n\nHere is another nifty feature that made this watch such a standout among its peers-Fall Detection. The watch can detect whether you have fallen or not. Once it has been detected a fall, it will ask you whether you want to contact any emergency services or not. If it does not sense any movement from you (assuming you are unconscious or suffering from heart attack etc.), it will automatically contact the emergency numbers available to ask for immediate help. Damn! This is truly a brilliant feature from Apple for its Watch Series 4. This will be ideal for our old folks or those with medical history. Hats 4 for the team behind this smartwatch!\n\n\n\n\n\nApple Watch Series 4 is the best smartwatch money can.\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, Watch Series 4 is powered by a new S4 64-bit dual-core processor that is 2X faster than its older sibling. In spite of the bigger screen and raw processing power, the watch maintains its 18-hour battery life just like its predecessor. When you are outdoor exercising with the GPS turned on, the watch can last up to 6 hours which is sufficient enough before you need another charge.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll in all, I would say that Apple Watch Series 4 is not a luxury, relatively speaking of course. In fact I think it is a good investment especially for those who can afford to wear one on their wrist. Available in two different models-GPS only and GPS+Cellular-Watch Series 4 comes in 3 different colours of gold, silver and space grey. The price tag for GPS only watch is US$399 (RM1650) while the Cellular version will cost you US$499 (RM2,000). Though some might argue its price point, I highly recommend Apple Watch Series 4 as your life-saving smartwatch!\n"} {"title": "Audra Lets You Take Control of Your Internet", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nThe Internet has truly revolutionized our life, bringing untold benefits and convenience that has made almost everything possible. Then again the very Internet that we adore so much can also be a double-edge sword if it is not used properly. Our over-dependence on the Internet via digital devices such as smartphones and tablets has caused us to be slaves who crave for constant connection. Therefore we need to take control of our own technology and that is exactly what Audra\u00a0Digital Wellness Device can do for us-digital detoxification.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nControl how Internet is used in your office\n\n\n\nAs mentioned earlier, Audra is a digital wellness device that can help us to take charge of our digital life. What does it mean to be \"digitally unwell\"? For starters: Do you have this urge to check on your social networking sites all the time (including bedtime) such Facebook, Instagram and Twitter just to name a few? Do you spend a huge amount of time playing mobile games on your smartphones instead of sleeping? Do you have this need to binge-watch the latest Korean dramas while neglecting more important issues like studying and spending time with your family? If you answers to the questions are a resounding YES, then your tech addiction needs digital detoxification urgently!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nAt home you can also set rules on how the Internet can be used.\n\n\n\nTechnology has indirectly caused us to lose touch with our reality-our real life. That is where Audra comes into the picture as it helps you to be in control of our life again. For the uninitiated, there are two versions of the digital wellness products that I want to introduce to you today: Audra Business and Audra Home. The former is targeted for business owners, schools and institutions while the latter is designed for household and parents. Despite the variations, both of the Audra devices aim to promote digital wellness for us.\n\n\n\n\n\nSEE-We cannot deny that we are too hooked on the Internet.\n\n\n\nSo essentially what can Audra do for us? First and foremost, Audra let you rightfully have control over your Internet just the way you want it whether you are an employer or a parent. By using it, you can set how the Internet can be used whether you are in your office or at home. Besides managing excessive screen time, you can also block unwanted websites from being accessed via the Internet.

Unsuspecting malware and adware can easily be detected and blocked by the device before it could even do any harm to your laptops, computer or smartphones.

In other words Audra will be your ultimate gatekeeper, protecting your from any possible cyber threats.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy very own box of Audra Business\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSetting up is easy as ABC!\n\n\n\nSo is Audra the solution to the Internet problems that you are looking for? The answer is a big YES from me. You see yours truly me is lucky enough to receive an Audra Business to review and I must admit that I am totally flabbergasted to know that such device which promotes digital wellness actually exists. Of course Apple and Google have recently rolled out features such as time limits on apps and so-called 'wind down mode'. Though these are great efforts, they are merely tools that users can simply choose to turn off and ignore. Hence, direct intervention is needed and that is why Audra Business (or Home) is the perfect gadget to control Internet usage as it is directly connected to your modem and router. The following are the top 9 features of Audra business that I would like to share with you:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTop 9 Features of Audra Business\n\n\n\n\n\n1-Group devices (for easier rule management)\n\n2-Specific device rule setting\n\n3-Specific website blocking\n\n4-One Click: Bed time/study time/custom setting\n\n5-Time quota based blocking\n\n6-Malware/Adware blocking\n\n7-DDos attack prevention\n\n8-Simplified usage reports for all group devices\n\n9-Customized notification and alert setting\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you are looking for a total solution on how all the devices connected to your wireless network use your Internet, look no further as both Audra Business and Home can provide you with the absolute control that you need.

The negative flak is due to the so-called carbon copy designs of their devices which look mighty similar to the more expensive iPhone. Then again a lot of smartphones look more or less the same nowadays except for a few a radical ones like Oppo Find X and Vivo NEX which boldly redesign their smartphones. So what can Pocophone F1 bring to the table? Price tag-ridiculously cheap price tag!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPocophone is the brainchild of Xiaomi; or you can call it as the sub-brand of Xiaomi. Basically it can be heralded as the new OnePlus which used to offer flagship specs and performances at a rock bottom price. As OnePlus is moving towards more premium market bracket, the introduction of Pocophone seems timely and necessary. It is powered by a Snapdragon 845 with a price tag as low as US$300 (RM1,300). So if you are looking for flagship smartphone at dirt cheap price-your search is over.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat do you have in the notch?\n\n\n\nYou will gleefully smile the moment you hold Pocophone F1 in your hand. The huge 6.18-inch Full HD+ display will make your eyes water (in a good way of course). The display has a resolution of 2246 x 1080 with an aspect ratio of 18:7:9 which gives it its slim and tall profile design. Protected by tough Corning Gorrila Glass, it showcases a brightness of 500nits which will definitely brighten up your day. Like most of the smartphones, it comes with a notch to house extra sensors such as infrared lights and camera so that you can even unlock your phone with your gorgeous face even in pitch black darkness.\n\n\n\n\n\nPoco F1 is the most affordable smartphone with Snapdragon 845.\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, the smartphone is powered by flagship-level Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor which come with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage which is expandable for another 256GB of external storage via MicroSD card. Mind you that it comes with premium LPDDR4x RAM and UFS 2.1 storage which will of course allow you to enjoy ultra-snappy experience with it. Coupled with Adreno 630GPU and LiquidCool technology, it runs smoothly and efficiently to deliver top-notch performances for work and play-gaming. *psst* Poco F1 actually outscored OnePlus\u00a0 6 in the latest Antutu Benchmark. Gamers rejoice. :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn terms of photography, Poco F1 sports the identical 12MP f/1.9 Sony IMX363 main camera with dual-pixel autofocus that Xiaomi Mi 8 is using. As for secondary rear camera it features a 5MP f/2.0 for all your bokeh effects and portrait shots. As for flawless selfies, you will have a whopping 20MP camera at your disposal which comes with AI portrait mode. Though there is no Optical Image Stabilization, there is EIS when you record videos. By the way the fingerprint sensor is directly at the bottom of the rear camera module.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSome final \"bytes\" to chew, Poco F1 possesses stereo speakers which will be perfect for drama binge-watching and of course gaming. It is juiced by a huge battery pack of 4,000mAh which supports\u00a0 Quick Charge 3.0 and guess what? Xiaomi still retains the fast-disappearing 3.5mm headphone jack. You can choose from 3 different colours of Rosso Red, Graphite Black and Steel Blue. If you want something more avant garde, you can opt for the Armoured Edition which utilises DuPont Kevlar aramid fibre for that extra protection. So should you buy Pocophone F1? It is a resounding YES from me. Cheap price and flagship specs: what else do you one? :p The following are the official Malaysian pricing of the phone:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6GB RAM + 64GB storage \u2013 RM1,237\n\n6GB RAM + 128GB storage \u2013 RM1,428\n"} {"title": "What Features Will Smartphones Need In The Near Future?", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nComparing smartphone releases is always a fairly detailed process these days. The truth is that high-end mobile devices share most of their best qualities by now, and it\u2019s the little things that set them apart. Sure, there are certain phones made for a very specific purpose that can stand out a little bit more. But more typically, we\u2019re debating photo quality, processing speed, and fractions of inches\u2019 worth of screen size when we compare top-of-the-line phones nowadays. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo will this just continue to be the case? Or will the smartphones of the near future be able to compete based on larger features rather than detailed specs? That\u2019s difficult for anyone to say with certainty. What we can do to some extent however is predict what some of the defining features of near-future smartphones might be. And at least for a brief time, the phones that embrace these features first and most effectively could gain an edge in an ultra-competitive industry. \n\n\n\n\n\nAugmented Reality\n\n\n\nAugmented Reality Accuracy\n\nThere\u2019s already a lot to know about augmented reality given that ARCore and ARKit are still relatively new, and most of us are still at least relatively unfamiliar with the early generation of augmented reality apps. However, this technology is going to expand and improve rapidly in the coming years, and phones will need to improve with it. To some extent the performance of AR programs is on developers, but phones need to be able to perceive surfaces and facilitate augmented reality accurately in order for it to work its best. Any phone that manages to do a particularly good job of this will theoretically gain an edge. \n\n\n\n\n\nSize does matter\n\n\n\nLarger Screens\n\nTo this point, preference for screen size has sort of fluctuated. In a little over a decade of smartphones we\u2019ve gone from big to small and to big again, and now people have choices as to whether they want phones or \u201cphablets.\u201d But as we grow even more dependent on our phones, and do more things on them, extra screen space is going to be appreciated. There\u2019s a reasonable chance that larger screens will simply become the norm. \n\n\n\n\n\nGiving you peace of mind\n\n\n\nGreater Security\n\nIn a very basic way it stands to reason that we\u2019ll always want better security for our phones, but when you consider specific activity this area is all the more important. We\u2019re using these devices more and more for digital payments, for instance. New sites are emerging for betting and casino activity, and building mobile components such that even our entertainment involves finances. And we\u2019re also putting more of our personal data on our phones all the time. These factors together are making security more vital by the year, such that it will become an even more thoroughly defining feature of smartphones. \n\n\n\n\n\nLong-lasting juice.\n\n\n\nBetter Battery\n\nBetter battery has always been desired, and we\u2019ve even come up with some workarounds for weaker performances, such as protective screens that double as battery boosters. But as we continue to use our phones for more things, as well as for advanced tech practices like AR, they\u2019ll need batteries that can keep up. It\u2019s nothing new, but it remains one of the major challenges for smartphone developers to keep up in this area. \n\n\n\n\n\nBeam into the future\n\n\n\nProjection Capability\n\nThere are smartphone projectors already that attach to our phones and allow us to stream content into space. But lately there\u2019s been a little bit more buzz about phones being able to pull this off without the use of any kind of attachment. Once upon a time - not so very long ago in fact - we mused about being able to watch 3D, holographic projections from our phones. Projectors may be more realistic, and are certainly closer to becoming everyday realities. And whichever phone nails this concept first will have an enviable gimmick that others will quickly rush to imitate. \n"} {"title": "Huawei \"Cheated\" By Using DSLR Camera In Nova 3i Ad?", "body": "\n\n\nNo, he was not holding a Huawei Nova 3i smartphone.\u00a0\n\n\n\nIt appears that Huawei is embroiled in yet another marketing fiasco when they are caught red-handed \"faking\" their Nova 3i ads. Instead of using the smartphone itself to shoot the commercial, the company relied on DSLR camera to help them shoot the photos and videos for Nova 3i. This has been revealed by a behind-the-scenes photo which turns out to be captured by a DSLR, not the device which is being advertised. Bummer!\n\n\n\n\n\nA DSLR was actually used to shoot this ad.\n\n\n\nIn the advertisement, a couple who was quarreling was seen taking a selfie together. The man insisted that she does not need to reapply any make up as Huawei's AI and camera tech can help to effortlessly take beautiful flawless selfies of them. The revelation came when Sarah Elshamy who is the actress in the ad \"accidentally\" posted the behind-the-scene photo on her Instagram. It was obvious that a DSLR camera was used instead of Nova 3i. What a blunder, no? She had since deleted the photo but I am sure she is facing the music right now.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReal behind-the-scenes photo. Only the DSLR camera is seen here.\n\n\n\n\nOn the other hand, Huawei claims that the advertisement has never stated that the picture was captured on a Nova 3i. Then again, consumers are \"manipulated\" to believe that the stunning photos and videos were of course taken using the advertised smartphone right? No disrespect to Huawei, but I honestly believe that no company should mislead the consumers with the products that they are advertising. Now...we can't out-rightly believe any ads without taking it with a grain of salt huh.\n"} {"title": "Galaxy Note 9 With Remote Control S Pen", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nFinally, after reading and listening to all the rumours mill, Galaxy Note 9 has finally been gloriously unveiled by Big Sammy. Arguably one of the most anticipated flagship by Samsung, Galaxy Note 9 is what we all have been expecting but it still manages to mesmerize us in so many ways. Though it does not have fancy pop up cameras like Oppo Find X or Vivo NEX, Note 9 has proven that you can still be the top dog to beat despite playing it safe.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nS Pen now comes with Bluetooth\n\n\n\nThe Mighty S Pen\n\nThough a lot will argue that Note 9 is actually very similar to its predecessor, it is more than what meets the eye. Almost everything has been upgraded including the screen, storage and even the mighty S Pen. The S Pen which is the epitome of all Note range is now Bluetooth-ready which makes it more powerful than it already was. Now you can use the your mighty S Pen as a remote control to snap photos.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy using the S Pen, you can activate the camera app with just a long press. To snap a photo, a single press is what you need to do; while double pressing the button will allow you to switch between the rear cameras and selfie camera. You can even use the S Pen to play of pause your Youtube videos or even while listening to your favourite music. Play, pause and even skip ads thanks to the mighty S Pen. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere is a catch though. The S Pen can only last around 30 minutes on a single charge. Then again it is fully charged in just 40 seconds once you slot it into Note 9 again. So not really a big problem though. Even if there is no more battery you can still draw and use Air Command features like all the other Notes. I would say the S Pen has been meticulously crafted by Samsung.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHuge Display + Storage\n\nIn order to take advantage of the S Pen functionality, the screen of a Galaxy Note device need to be big. Note 9 comes with a huge 6.4-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 2,960 x 1,440 (Quad HD+). Under the hood, a mouth-watering top of the line specs await you with 8GB of RAM plus 512GB of storage which is expandable via MicroSD which means you can get another 512GB of external storage. I doubt you will run out of space when you have 1TB at your disposal, no?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBigger Power Pack\n\nPower users (or gamers) are always complaining that battery is a major improvement that they want to see in smartphones. Note 9 comes with the biggest battery ever for a Note range, boasting a huge 4,000mAh juice pack that can last for the whole day. Don't worry, this time it will NOTe\u00a0explode as Samsung has done extensive testings and they have even thrown in a app to monitor your battery (just in case).\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSmart Cameras\n\nSamsung has claimed that Note 9 boasts the best cameras available in any smartphone right now. Though this has yet to be verified, the cameras are the same with those found on the Galaxy S9 Plus:-dual 12MP cameras with dual aperture and optical image stabilization on both cameras. The differene this time around is the inclusion of smarter AI that can detect scenes automatically and choose the best settings based on the different situations. Do you know that the cameras will even alert you when your shots are blurry or if someone was snapped with closed eyes. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFinal Say\n\nSo do you think you should get Samsung Galaxy Note 9? The short answer is YES. The long answer is YEEEEEEEEEES. Ok! Honestly I am really biased when it comes to Galaxy Note series as I believe the mighty S Pen does make it worth every single penny. Then again are you willing to fork out RM4,599 for the top of the range 512GB version of Galaxy Note 9? I hereby declare that Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is the best smartphone in 2018. I know I would pre-order one if I can afford. LOL :)\n"} {"title": "Honor Play The Professional Gaming Smartphone Which Is Cheap", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nEarlier this year, Asus announced their ROG smartphone which is essentially targeted for those who love to play mobile games using their smartphones.

Those who are still in love with capacitive buttons (like me) will be disappointed to know that they are gone now. So you will have to get used to the on-screen navigation keys. Gorilla Class 5 with 2.5D edge is used to protect the display while complementing the curved back metal design. The fingerprint scanner sits on the back of the device.\n\n\n\n\n\n2.5D Gorilla Glass 5 to protect your screen!\n\n\n\nThose who love Xiaomi know that their smartphones are ultra-impressive and affordable. Under the hood, Mi 2 is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 with the combination of either 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage or 6GB or RAM together with 128GB of internal storage. If you intend to get a Xiaomi Mi A2, I suggest that you opt for the top variant as there is no expandable microSD storage which is really a bummer that could turn out to be a deal-breaker.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlay games with no-lag at all wit Mi A2.\n\n\n\nXiaomi has been marketing Mi A2 for its so-called picture perfect 20MP camera, which is exactly what you will get when you hold the Mi A2 in your hand.

Like Oppo Find X, Vivo NEX does not come with any notch which is achieved by hiding the selfie camera via \"magic\". Without the presence of the hideous notch on the display, Vivo NEX is the all-screen smartphone that you want to have for maximum viewing pleasure. Compared to the more glamorous Find X, the NEX boasts a bigger display screen but comes with a cheaper price tag.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6.59-inch of huge AMOLED display\n\n\n\nThe moment you hold Vivo NEX in your hand, you will be gleefully looking at the huge, beautiful 6.59-inch AMOLED display with a 91.24% screen to body ratio.

In terms of internal storage, you have either 128GB or 256GB at your disposal which is supposed to be sufficient. Then again the absence of expandable external storage via MicroSD card is really a bummer. I honestly believe that Vivo should have retained MicroSD slot in NEX. This could be a deal breaker.\n\n\n\n\n\nStunning radical design\u00a0\n\n\n\nIn terms of photography, Vivo NEX rear shooters come with a 12MP f/1.8 + 5MP f/2.4 dual-camera system. Vivo has integrated a 4-axis Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS) and Electronic Image Stabilisation (EIS) for more beautiful photos and steadier videos. Here comes the star that makes NEX so speacial-front selfie camera. As there is no notch to house the front-facing selfie camera, Vivo NEX's 8MP f/2.0 selfie camera is cleverly concealed in a pop-up mechanism that can triggered in one second. Built using durable stainless steel, Vivo claimed that this pop-up mechanism has been rigorously tested to last for more than 50,000 pop ups without ant glitch.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe camera that pops up at your command!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHuge battery for a full-day use.\n\n\n\n\n\nIn-display fingerprint sensor.\n\n\n\n\nVivo NEX will be juiced by a huge 4,000mAh battery which charges via USB-C that should last you for one full day without needing to be plugged to the wall all the time. Here is another thing which I find is very interesting: the absence of earpiece. Yupe! Instead of relying on the traditional earpiece to project sounds, NEX emits sounds through the display! Dang! The best part is, Vivo NEX still comes with the much-needed 3.5mm headphone jack.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere is a dedicated button on the left to activate your personal assistant be it Jovi or other Artificial Intelligence such as Google Assistant. Vivo NEX will be running Android 8.1 overlaid with FunTouch OS. Just like Vivo X21, NEX features Vivo's third generation in-display fingerprint sensor which has better precision and speed.

So yeah...despite the tablet-like display, Mi Max 3 is still being considered as a relatively pocket-able smartphone.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMi Max 3 is really huge but you can still get a good grip. :)\n\n\n\nWhen you hold Mi Max 3 in your hands, you will surely notice how big the display is. Mi Max 3 sports a glorious 6.9-inch Full HD+ display at a resolution of 2160 x 1080. With a screen ratio of 18:9, Mi Max 3 is actually skinnier than its predecessor (Mi Max 2) thanks to its narrower bezels. It actually resembles Redmi Note 5 but with a more refined metal unibody which exudes a lot of class and elegance.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt looks mighty close to Redmi Note 5\n\n\n\nUnder the hood, Mi Max 3 will be powered by the commanding Snapdragon 636 processor that is complemented by up to 6GB of RAM for everything to be buttery smooth and lag-free. As for internal storage, Mi Max 3 offers up to 128GB of storage that is expandable up to 256GB via MicroSD.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHuge battery!\n\n\n\n\nIn terms of photography, the main rear shooters of Mi Max 3 gets a dual-camera system with AI assistance. Capture beautiful photos with its 12MP f/1.9 primary camera which comes with dual PDAF while the secondary camera is 5MP shooter for depth of field effects. Flip it to the front and Mi Max 3 has an 8MP f/2.0 selfie camera with a soft LED flashlight which I think is really a bargain for its price.\n\n\n\n\n\nStill relatively pocket-able right? :)\n\n\n\nWhen it comes to entertainment, I honestly believe that Mi Max 3 ticks all the boxes. Besides the enormous 6.9-inch display for your visual indulgence, Xiaomi has also thrown in stereo speakers and even the diminishing 3.5mm audio jack. Hence with top-notch huge display and high-quality sound, you can enjoy immersive audio-visual entertainment like gaming and watching movies. Mi Max 3's big screen alone is a killer feature.\n\n\n\n\n\nMi Max 3 shows that big is always better. :D\n\n\n\n\nUnderneath the big display is an equally big 5,500mAh battery that supports fast charging via Quick Charge 3.0 through USB-C. Despite being a giant, Mi Max 3 tips the scale at only 221g and is unbelievably thin with a thickness of only 7.99mm-sleek! So do you want to own this beautiful Mi Max 3? It will be available in 2 variants: 4GB RAM + 64GB storage is priced at RM1,000 (US$250) while the higher-end 6GB RAM +128GB storage is priced at only RM1,200 (US$300). Mi Max 3 is really a steal for its price.\n"} {"title": "Galaxy Note 9-Samsung Next Phablet In Leaks [PICS]", "body": "\n\n\nEV Leaks\n\n\nI love Samsung smartphones especially their Note series which I believe are the most powerful smartphones available at our disposal.

Eaten your lunch already? Or are you still being glued to your monitor, with your hands stuck to the keyboard? Take a break will ya'? Let's go makan (eat)! I had my lunch early today. 11.30a.m. to be precise. After I went to the general hospital, I rode on my bike to search for a \"grazing ground\". Mooooo~:D I turn to the left, I swerved to the right and I weaved everywhere to find the perfect meal. Initially I wanted to go to MacDonald again just like yesterday. But when I was in front of the big M, my taste buds suddenly decided they want something else. So Off I went to...\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's eat!\n\n\n\nWilchick Chicken Rice. I have been eating Wilchick Chicken Rice like at least once a fortnight since I was young. And I can safely say that they are one the most famous chicken rice shop in Malacca. There are 4 branches of Wilchick altogether in Malacca. What's so special about them? Hmm...I don't really know actually. But I have a special connection with them. Maybe it is because my mother used to bring me there to have our meals together when she was still around. Nostalgia might be the best word to describe my inclination for their chicken rice. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nYou should eat this kind of balanced lunch every day. :p\n\n\n\nI ordered a plate of chicken rice with drumstick, an egg, some chicken intestine and a can of coke! Very balanced and \"healthy\" right? Haha :D I love their rice which is very fragrance and soft. And it is always nice to sip their hot, steaming soup which is not too salty. The ambiance there is equally good too. Spacious and windy. I enjoyed the scenery while sipping my gassy coca cola. Buuurrrppppp! :D\n\n\n\n\n\nSo try Wilchick Chicken rice now. :)\n\n\n\n\n~First Commenter~\n"} {"title": "Dinner At Sizzling Stonegrill, Jusco Malacca", "body": "\nDo you wanna know where me and my missus had our anniversary dinner? No, we didn't have the typical candle light dinner, nor did we dine in at a luxury cafe with great ambiance. Instead we decided to be a little bit adventurous with our taste buds and braced into the \"jungle\" to hunt down for our food. We went to...Sizzling Stonegrill which is located in the new Jusco Bandaraya. My missus and I have been itching to try their food since its inception earlier this month. So a few days ago we finally managed to gratify our lust for it. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to the \"jungle\"!\n\n\n\nBefore we go into the food, let's talk about the atmosphere in Sizzling Stone shall we? If you happen to be in Jusco Malacca and walk along their so-called \"food\" alley, instantly you'll be grabbed by the outlook of Sizzling Stone. I thought it is a \"jungle\"-themed restaurant. It is so different you know. I wonder why they are so bold with the interior design of the restaurant. The restaurant looks rather dark but at the same time it is equally cosy. Why jungle? Because at the middle of the restaurant there is a huge tree (artificial one~lar), and the ceiling is full of leaves. How different huh!\n\n\n\n\n\nTheir huge tree.\n\n\n\n\n\nThere's even another floor?\n\n\n\nWhat's so special about Sizzling Stonegrill? The main attraction would be, of course its sizzling stones! Previously whenever me and wifey passed by this restaurant, we would be \"mesmerized\" by the dinners who are enjoying their meals. Dinners grilled their salmon fillets on the sizzling stones. Immediately the juice from the fillets would flow out and upon contact with the hot sizzling stones...it will evaporate and thus create this awesome \"smoke\"! Ha :D So tempted were we, we made up our mind to try it ourselves. Hence to Sizzling Stone-we went, we saw and we ate!\n\n\n\n\n\nMakan lor!\n\n\n\nWe ordered their Spicy Salmon Spaghetti, StoneGrill Squids, StoneGrill Terayaki Chicken, Mushroom soup and 2 cups of hot lemon tea. So how was it? Hmm...to be brutally honest, we were a little disappointed especially with the spicy salmon spaghetti. The grilled salmon fillets were not cooked properly hence it still had the \"fishy\" smell. But apart from that everything else was yummy. \n\n\n\n\n\nFishy spaghetti.\n\n\n\n\n\nPlain sizzling squids.\n\n\n\n\n\nYummy-licious Terayaki Chicken!\n\n\n\n\n\nLemon tea.\n\n\n\nThe mushroom soup was thick and creamy, which was really palatable. The grilled squids were a tad too normal for our liking. It was not marinated at all. Just plain squids. However the terayaki chicken is simply awesome. After we had sizzled it on the stone, the aroma exuded was simply appetizing. The dish was truly flavoursome and it really salvaged our dinner. And the lemon tea that we had was just the tonic to zap our sumptuous dinner. :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo should you pay Sizzling Stone a visit? I thing the answer is a resounding YES. They still have a lot to offer. And will I return to the \"jungle\" again? Yes, of course I would. :)\n\n\n\n\n\nHaha :D\n"} {"title": "Our Dinner At SSL Trades Hotel", "body": "\nThe night before we left Taiping, my father-in-law brought us to the first commercial hotel in Taiping-SSL Traders which was inaugurated in December 2008. The moment we stepped in, the atmosphere was so grand. The restaurant was literally stuffed with people. On that day, lots of people came back to their hometown-Taiping, to spend some quality time with the family. I even saw a few foreigners enjoying their luxurious banquet. I never expected I will be served such a sumptuous meal in this peaceful land. No disrespect though. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSSL Traders Hotel! :)\n\n\n\nWe really enjoyed our meals in SSL Traders Hotel. I heard from my father-in-law that the chefs in the kitchen are from Kuala Lumpur, no wonder the foods tasted so KL-ish! Haha :D Well, we ordered a few dishes. 4 to be more precise. One of the most memorable dish that my taste buds experienced was the \"Don't-know-what sea cucumber\" dish. It was really luscious. The sea cucumber is so tender and juicy.\n\n\n\n\n\nCucumber from sea!\n\n\n\n\n\nYummy Mayonnaise Prawns!\n\n\n\n\n\n\"Malay Scenery\" \n\n\n\nThe other dishes are equally palatable. The mayonnaise prawns are really appetizing. I thought the prawns are really good, maybe because they are already skinned. The \"Malay Scenery\" (\u9a6c\u6765\u98ce\u5149) aka fried, spicy kangkung was just nice. Not too salty and not too spicy but of course nothing to shout about too. Our final dish-steamed fish, can be considered the best. The fish meat is so soft and succulent. The moment the white tender meat was in my mouth, I could fell it melting in my mouth. Awww....so juicy. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nSimply toothsome!\n\n\n\nIf you happen to be in Taiping, don't forget to whet you appetite in SSL Traders Hotel ok.

It was already 2pm then. \"To go for Manhattan Fish Market or to try something else in the Garden?\" Both of us are still undecided. But since we had MFM a few months ago in KLCC, we made p our mind to let our taste buds try something exquisite. We wanted to relish something we won't have in Malacca. Then both my wife and I ventured out of Midvalley into the the Gardens. That was our maiden visit into the Gardens.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe were awe-struck to witness Gardens with our own eyes. All this while, we didn't have the opportunity to step into this luxurious mall. The designs and architecture of the Gardens is very much, different from Midvalley. Everything here look classier compared to their older sibling. A lot of zen and touch has been applied. But somehow Gardens is a little bit \"colder\" compared to the friendlier Midvalley. Some part of the Gardens was really human-less when we were sight-seeing. Or perhaps we are just used to Midvalley. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nOur next pit stop!\n\n\n\nAfter scouring the Gardens for quite a while, we decided to settle down and satiate our hunger. There were several food restaurants that really grabbed our attention but in the end we have chosen Yuzu to gratify our needs. All thanks to Foongpc's Yuzu recommendation.\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Yuzu! :)\n\n\n\nWe were greeted by a rather elaborate decoration at the entrance. There was even a small pond housing several cute dancing koi. :D Then we were asked to choose between smoking and non-smoking areas to dine in. Of course we chose the latter.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo what should we eat?\n\n\n\n\n\nSimple and yet elegant.\n\n\n\nThe environment is very soothing and I love the warm ambiance. After we had placed our orders I roamed around the restaurant to admire its decoration and its amiable atmosphere. I like Yuzu I must say and their waitress are really helpful. Wifey and I was quite hungry.\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWe were chatting about our next destination and then it came-our appetizer! Aww...welcome Ishiyaki Geso Mayonnaise. It was squid tentacles with mayonnaise wrapped with aluminium foil and grilled on a hot stone. The taste was so glorious! This is certainly one of the a la carte meal you should try at Yuzu! Then our next a la carte Geso Tatsuta Age made its way onto our table. These deep fried squid tasted just nice. Yummy! :p\n\n\n\n\n\nIshiyaki Geso Mayonnaise-Simply the BEST!\n\n\n\n\n\nGeso Tatsuta Age-Not bad. :)\n\n\n\nAfter our tongue had tasted the appetizers, we will be bracing for our main meal! My Unagi & Soba & Takikomi Gohan Set settled first. Gosh I never thought it will be so huge. The meals are nicely placed in a...er...special \"tray\"? :p A few moments later, my wife's Yuzu Bento landed. I thought hers was equally large too, if not larger.\n\n\n\n\n\nMine. Sorry for the blurry pic. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nWife's Bento Set. Looked more delicious than mine. :D\n\n\n\nThere were so many food in our respective meals. But the portion for each of it could be a little bigger. Greedy me. :p Well...after visually admiring the food for awhile, wifey and I started to let our taste buds do the talking! \"Itadakimasu!\" :)\n\n\n\n\n\nItadakimasu everyone!\n\n\n\nI really enjoyed the meal a lot. Hmm...perhaps I have never tried such Japanese cuisines before? There a variety of weird stuff that I have never seen before. For example the...err...noddle soaked in cold soup? :p But of all the foods, my favourite was still the raw salmon slice. Yum! Yum! The Unagi made me wanna puke. I guess I just don't know how to appreciate it. An acquired taste for the smelly Unagi I bet?\n\n\n\n\n\nYum! Yum!\n\n\n\nBy the time we finished our meal we were very quite full already. Our next food stop, Manhattan Fish Market has to be scrapped. It was indeed an enjoyable treat for both of us. The whole meal costed around RM120. Indeed an expensive indulgence huh! But I really had a great time with my sweet heart at Yuzu! Will we be here again?

Yep! It was the second day of Raya. Since everyone has returned to their own shire, my wife and I decided to do some shopping in MidValley. It was the place my wife and I used to hang out during our University years. We were so excited with our trip. We actually planned it a few weeks earlier. :p\n\n\n\nThe first place we hit was Carl's Junior. It is a fast food restaurant. And I'm sure a lot of you know where it is right? Carl's Junior was located directly opposite the GSC! We have never tried it before plus we had not had our breakfast that day, therefore we gave it a try. We were their first 2 customers as it was only 10.30a.m. then. Ha :D After we ordered our meal, we picked a special seat and waited for our Bacon Swiss Crispy Chicken to be served.\n\n\n\nWhile waiting for our meal, I \"cam-whored\"around. :p After waiting for around 15 minutes, finally our charbroiled burger was served! Wow! The portion was really big. But of course it didn't come cheap. The meal came with a price tag of RM20.\n\n\n\nFor that we got the burger (of course), bottomless drink (as if we need it) and the fries. Yeah! That's all. But I must say that we really love the natural cut fries. Do you know that they don't skin the potatoes? It was so different and tasty! Yum! Yum!\n\n\n\nSo why we want to fork out RM20 instead of going to McDonald? Well...because we wanted to try Carl's Junior Charbroiled burger. So what is charbroiled? Charbroil actually means grilling something over charcoal. :)\n\n\n\nWell! That's all from me folks. Perhaps I can divulge more about our one day trip to KL in the future. For the time being. Please enjoy watching me enjoyed the burger! :p\n"} {"title": "Lunch At Manhattan Fish Market KLCC", "body": "\nLast Saturday when we first reached Kuala Lumpur, our stomachs were drumming like crazy. No thanks to the obtuse protesters. We were so hungry that we barely can move (just kidding). At that moment, the feeling of being \"famised\" is beyond our endurance. Ha :D So when we decided to \"mend\" our stomach at Manhattan Fish Market (MFM). Daddy, wife and I had never tried the fishes from MFM before. One of the reasons is because there is none in Malacca. So we were more than happy to let our taste buds do the talking!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBut before we go any further, don't mistaken Manhattan Fish Market to be associated with the Manhattan city in New York. Manhattan Fish Market is actually from Malaysia. It is a locally breed company. Heck, are you surprised to know this? MFM is actually owned by Revenue Valley Sdn. Bhd. which set up its very first Manhattan Fish Market in Midvalley in 2002. It is believed that MFM is derived from the fabled Fulton Market (oldest and largest fish market in Manhattan) established since 1822. The Malaysian chain has a lot in common with the former namely in terms of the top-notch quality and freshness of its seafood. This I agree whole-heartedly after tasting their meals.\n\n\n\nWhen we reached the restaurant, it was very crowded. There were so many people but the space provided is too small, I would say. Even the tables are small. Bro said that the MFM in Midvalley and Sogo is bigger! Perhaps the rental in KLCC is too darn expensive. We browse through the menu and discovered there were simply too many foods for us to try. We were at our wits' end trying to decide what to order? Everything in the menu is equally appealing. In the end we ordered 2 dishes. While waiting for our orders, I happily snapped around with many eyeballs gazing at me. Ha :D\n\n\n\nAfter that, Bro asked the waiter if they had any garlic butter sauce (I wonder if I had named it correctly) on that day. He said the specially made sauce which is mixed with parsley is highly delectable and will make the other meals more appetizing and piquant. And MSM will only offer this exquisite sauce when you request for it. The sauce is absolutely FREE. So remember to request for it on your next visit ok.\n\n\n\nFinally our fishes \"swam\" its way onto our table. The first dish arrived was picked by me. Since I love fish & chips, I ordered Manhattan Fish & Chips which was of Pacific Dory fillet. The portion is quite big and the Dory fish is surprisingly tender. Aww...the moment I sink my teeth into it I knew this would be the best Fish and Chips I have ever tried. Even the chips tasted so good and different! OMG! Why? Why it was so damn deeeeeeelicious?\n\n\n\nA moment later, our main dish finally \"landed\" on our tiny table. The huge serving certainly dwarf the Dory I ordered. The main dish was picked by my brother. It was the Fishermen's Giant Fried Platter. The whole portion was really colossal. Ouh my God! You should see it (if you haven't) with your own eyes! The golden-brown juicy mushrooms were so crunchy that you can't stopped your urge for another one. The prawns are simply tantalizing and the calamari tasted so damn fabulously palatable. Besides the usual chips, this Giant Fried Platter also includes the amazingly savoury garlic rice. This was the my maiden encounter with such rice. I can't believe the rice was so ambrosian! Yuuuuuuuummmmy! :p\n\n\n\nI must say that my first encounter with Manhattan Fish Market was really, darn great. Aside from the small space, everything else is almost flawless. The environment is inviting, the ambiance is cosy and more importantly the foods are fresh and heavenly. What more can I say? Hereby, I would love to endorse (who am I? Hahaha) Manhattan Fish Market as the No. 1 fish and chips restaurant in Malaysia! Yay! :D\n\n\n\nThank you to my bro for treating us. The meals costed him RM150! Ha :D After satiating our huge appetite, we decided to embark to our next destination. Can you guess where were heading after that?\n"} {"title": "Russell Taylors Air Fryer-My Honest Review", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nI once thought that air fryer is just a fancy kitchen gadget that will turn into a white elephant soon after you have unwrapped the lavish packaging; I was also very skeptical about the food that you cook with this so-called \"frying using the air\" technology. I asked myself, \"Will the food even be edible let alone tasty?\" Those are the questions that have been stopping me from believing in any air fryer until...I was introduced to this Russell Taylors' Air Fryer. Honestly after trying it for the first time, my perception of food cooked by air fryer has completely changed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Introducing Russell Taylors Air Fryer\n\n\n\nBenefits of using this air fryer\n\n\n\nWhat can you do with an air fryer?\n\n\n\nLet's unbox my air fryer right now. :)\n\n\n\nFirst and foremost, for those uninitiated non-believer like the previous me, an air fryer uses hot air convection to cook your food. In other words, instead of using OIL to fry your food, an air fryer will use AIR to cook your meals. This translates to less oil/fat being used and ultimately you will get to enjoy healthier food which is equally delicious if not better. So what is the secret of this Russell Taylors air fryer? Apparently it utilizes advanced, rapid hot air circulation technology to cook your food from all angles swiftly and evenly.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0I can't help but fall in love with this air fryer of mine.\n\n\n\n\n\nSleek and elegant\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI got myself the Russell Taylors Digital Air Fryer AF-36 XL which is the company's biggest air fryer (4.8 liters) to date. Right after I had ripped the box open, I was greeted by this sleek, jet-black coloured air fryer which really looks like a fashion statement on its own. Its design is simple, yet it exudes so much elegance to it that it can be placed in any corner in my kitchen. The digital panel nestled on top of the machine makes it even more remarkable, giving it that premium, sophisticated touch. OK! I was totally swooned by its look; Can it walk the talk? Let's see.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo how do we use this Russell Taylors air fryer?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nPush forward the transparent button to reveal the frying basket\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJust look at the huge capacity!\n\n\n\n\nUsing the air fryer for the very first time was truly effortless as it was easy to operate even without reading the manual (but you are advised to read it first :p). Pretty intuitive if you ask me! After holding the hand grip, all you need to do is to push the \"transparent squarish button\" forward to draw out the pan which is nestling the frying basket. To separate the basket from the pan, just press the dial underneath the transparent button to release the basket. This mechanism allows you to wash the pan and basket after dishing out your meals.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime to cook?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen in doubt, do refer to the manual...which I didn't because it was really easy to use.\n\n\n\n\nSo how do we cook our food such as chicken or fish using the air fryer? It is pretty easy. Basically all you need to do is to put whatever you want to cook into the basket and push the pan into the air fryer again. Then the digital control panel will be activated, prompting you how you would like your food to be cooked. You can either control it manually in terms of temperature and timer or you can use the cooking preset menu (there are 7 to choose from) to cook your food. As for me, I cooked my fish and chicken just by using the preset menu, sat back and relaxed! It was really, really easy. After 20 minutes or so, my perfectly air-fried fish and chickens are\u00a0 ready to be served! Voila~it is time to feast!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife was really excited to use her air fryer.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHere we go...\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0You can either set the temperature and timer manually or...\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can use the preset menu to cook your food. EASY!\n\n\n\n\nIs the food cooked by my Russell Taylors Air Fryer tasty? Is it better than conventional cooking using wok and pan? The verdict is... *drum roll* the fish and chicken cooked by using the air fryer were really, really more delicious and flavourful compared to traditional way of cooking them *gasped*. To be brutally honest, I did not expect them to taste this scrumptious as I had always believed nothing beats wok and pan. How wrong was I.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDing! The fish is ready to be served!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at my happy wife, holding her perfectly cooked fish minus the odour. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nCrispy on the outside but tender and juicy on the inside!\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is easy to prepare dinner with our air fryer now.\n\n\n\n\nThe skin of the fish was so crispy and yet not a single drop of oil was used to fry the fish. The fish was fried to perfection and the meat was so tender, sweet and juicy. I believe the air frying technology can lock the juice in the meat, giving the fish that lips-smacking goodness! I was really taken aback with the results to be honest. Moving on, we threw in 6 pieces of chicken wings (yeah~the frying basket is really big) into the air fryer and waited for them to be cooked. We pressed the desired menu and voila in no time our sleek, jet-black air fryer was beeping, informing us that our chicken wings are ready!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow about chicken wings?\n\n\n\n\nVisually, all 6 of the chicken wings were air fried flawlessly as you can tell by looking at the golden brown texture of the skin. But how about the taste? I sank my teeth into the chicken wings and oh my God~immediately I knew that the chicken wings were masterfully cooked. Like the fish, the chicken meat was delicate and lusciously delectable. How was this even possible? Again it was because of the all-angle rapid air technology used by Russell Taylors. I am truly impressed to say the least.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur chicken wings are ready.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMasterfully cooked without the need to flip the chicken wings or deal with any popping hot oil!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHealthy golden brown chicken wings\n\n\n\n\nEven my wife who is one of the greatest cooks that I have known, gives her nod of approval for this air fryer. Moreover she claims that besides cooking fish, chicken or whatever we desire to perfection, the use of air fryer also means that she can free up her time to do something else while waiting for our food to be served. This is what we call convenience right? My wife also loves the air fryer because she does not need to sniff in those odours while frying her fish or chicken anymore. Thanks to the integrated air filter, the use of air fryer also means that your cooking will be clean and your kitchen will be odourless. Thumbs up!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey is really, really happy with the chicken wings.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe chicken wings were really finger-licking good!\n\n\n\n\nSo can an air fryer replace your wok and pan? The answer is no. However I must admit that an air fryer is a must-have cooking companion to complement your cooking experience. I am really, really happy to get this huge air fryer for my wife. Now she can can cook tasty dinner for us every single day. In fact this air fryer is also a multi-cooker which means you can bake a cake, grill calamari and even roast a whole chicken with it! Dayum!

Then again the very Internet that we adore so much can also be a double-edge sword if it is not used properly. Our over-dependence on the Internet via digital devices such as smartphones and tablets has caused us to be slaves who crave for constant connection. Therefore we need to take control of our own technology and that is exactly what Audra\u00a0Digital Wellness Device can do for us-digital detoxification.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nControl how Internet is used in your office\n\n\n\nAs mentioned earlier, Audra is a digital wellness device that can help us to take charge of our digital life. What does it mean to be \"digitally unwell\"? For starters: Do you have this urge to check on your social networking sites all the time (including bedtime) such Facebook, Instagram and Twitter just to name a few? Do you spend a huge amount of time playing mobile games on your smartphones instead of sleeping? Do you have this need to binge-watch the latest Korean dramas while neglecting more important issues like studying and spending time with your family? If you answers to the questions are a resounding YES, then your tech addiction needs digital detoxification urgently!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nAt home you can also set rules on how the Internet can be used.\n\n\n\nTechnology has indirectly caused us to lose touch with our reality-our real life. That is where Audra comes into the picture as it helps you to be in control of our life again. For the uninitiated, there are two versions of the digital wellness products that I want to introduce to you today: Audra Business and Audra Home. The former is targeted for business owners, schools and institutions while the latter is designed for household and parents. Despite the variations, both of the Audra devices aim to promote digital wellness for us.\n\n\n\n\n\nSEE-We cannot deny that we are too hooked on the Internet.\n\n\n\nSo essentially what can Audra do for us? First and foremost, Audra let you rightfully have control over your Internet just the way you want it whether you are an employer or a parent. By using it, you can set how the Internet can be used whether you are in your office or at home. Besides managing excessive screen time, you can also block unwanted websites from being accessed via the Internet. If you are a parent, this is particularly crucial to prevent our young ones from browsing the wrong kind of information which will be detrimental to them; Likewise a boss will appreciate the fact that employees will be more focused as they will only be accessing websites that will directly contribute to their productivity.\n\n\n\n\n\nWith Audra, we can take control of our Internet again.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDigital wellness is important for everyone right now!\n\n\n\nApart from being a tool to control the Internet, Audra can also provide your business and home with state-of-the-art security features thus giving you complete peace of mind. Unsuspecting malware and adware can easily be detected and blocked by the device before it could even do any harm to your laptops, computer or smartphones. Rest assured your critical information be it credit card details or company's digital assets will be protected from unwanted data thieves, hackers and even DDoS attacks. In other words Audra will be your ultimate gatekeeper, protecting your from any possible cyber threats.\n\n\n\n\n\nMy very own box of Audra Business\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSetting up is easy as ABC!\n\n\n\nSo is Audra the solution to the Internet problems that you are looking for? The answer is a big YES from me. You see yours truly me is lucky enough to receive an Audra Business to review and I must admit that I am totally flabbergasted to know that such device which promotes digital wellness actually exists. Of course Apple and Google have recently rolled out features such as time limits on apps and so-called 'wind down mode'. Though these are great efforts, they are merely tools that users can simply choose to turn off and ignore. Hence, direct intervention is needed and that is why Audra Business (or Home) is the perfect gadget to control Internet usage as it is directly connected to your modem and router. The following are the top 9 features of Audra business that I would like to share with you:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTop 9 Features of Audra Business\n\n\n\n\n\n1-Group devices (for easier rule management)\n\n2-Specific device rule setting\n\n3-Specific website blocking\n\n4-One Click: Bed time/study time/custom setting\n\n5-Time quota based blocking\n\n6-Malware/Adware blocking\n\n7-DDos attack prevention\n\n8-Simplified usage reports for all group devices\n\n9-Customized notification and alert setting\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you are looking for a total solution on how all the devices connected to your wireless network use your Internet, look no further as both Audra Business and Home can provide you with the absolute control that you need.

Are you ready to put on the gloves to fend off the cold and slipped into a pair of fancy ice skates? Thanks to Mahkota Parade, we-Melakans can now enjoy the pleasure of skating on \"ice\" with our little ones. Imagine gliding on snowy white surface gracefully while maneuvering among other fellow skaters, basking in that surreal moments as if you are in the midst of ice. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nFirst you need to pick the perfect-sized ice skating shoes\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThey have a measuring board.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you for fitting the shoes for them. :)\n\n\n\nThe moment I knew about our very first ice skating rink in Melaka, I immediately told my wife that we should bring our little ones to Mahkota Parade to have a skate or two. So after having our dinner, we immediately bolted towards the concourse on the ground floor where our ice skating was waiting for us. Phew! We sure were lucky as the ice skating rink was almost packed to the brim. Jordan boy and Jasmine girl were totally ecstatic by then. They couldn't wait to get in ASAP!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor first time skater, you can use the support provided. :D\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nIt looks rather cool.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWell...he thinks that he is confident enough to let it go. :p\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBut not little Jasmine. :p\n\n\n\nSo after registering at the counter, we happily went to collect our pairs of socks and gloves. Then while we were seated, the helpful handler measured each of our big foot to choose the perfect ice skates for our happy feet. Once we were strapped in our cool ice skating shoes, off we cruised into the white plain of \"ice sheets\", carefully. We needed to be cautious as this is after all ice skating..which means it could be slippery.\n\n\n\n\n\nMommy is coming...\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n...RUUNNNNN!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Jasmine was confident enough to skate on her own too later. :D\n\n\n\n\n\nThey fell quite a number of times.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBut everything is alright.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\nRight Jordan boy? Ha :D\n\n\n\nObviously Jordan and Jasmine could not contain their excitement when they were on the ice skating rink. So much so that they forgot they are not professional ice skater. So...as expected they fell a little bit here and there. But not to worry, they picked themselves up quite quickly, oblivious to the knocks and bruises they had had. For those who are not really good at ice skating, not to worry as they have provided a support in the form of \"goal post\" to help you get used to skating. So you can hold on to the skating support until you are confident enough to let it go~let it go. :D\n\n\nThe following are some videos of our ice skating!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI later joined in to have some fun too.\n\n\n\n\nBoth of my children really enjoyed themselves, skating from one end to another while hurling balls at each other. After all it is not often that you get to ice skate in Melaka, no? In fact they refused to leave, especially Jordan boy. So we had to coax him to take off his skating shoes with ice creams. In the end he succumbed to temptations and we could drag him out of the ice skating rink. There proved how fun it was aye? Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt was so fun that Jordan did not want to leave.\n\n\n\n\n\nSo we had to use ice cream to tempt him out of the ice skating rink.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSee it works! Ice cream always does its job. :p\n\n\n\n\nFor those Malaccans who have yet to experience ice skating, why don't you head over to Mahkota Parade to try out being on \"ice\" before it \"melts\". Yupe! Our very first ice skating rink in Melaka will officially last until 29th of July 2018. You can actually get to skate for FREE when you spend a minimum amount of RM100 in a single receipt.

Today, I\u2019m beyond thrilled to share with you my review of the\u00a0Hot Wheels Action Loop & Launch toy set that I got for Jordan Boy for his 13th birthday. This isn\u2019t just another toy review, it\u2019s an intimate account of a father who embarked on a journey to find the perfect gift for his son\u2019s 13th birthday.Hot Wheels Action Loop & Launch Toy ReviewThough some of you might argue that the recommended age range for\u00a0Hot Wheels Action Loop & Launch Toy is between the ages 5-10, I honestly believe it doesn't matter if your kids and even you are older than 10 years old. Both my son and I have played with it and trust me, it can get really tough if you want to.Anatomy of Hot Wheels Action Loop & Launch Toy SetLet\u2019s begin by dissecting this wonder-toy piece by piece. The kit comprises several parts that combine together to form an exhilarating track for the mini Hot Wheels cars. It includes a sizeable loop section, a launch pad with an adjustable height lever, an exhilarating drop-in ramp, and a landing zone with trapdoor functionality. There are also 3 \"parking bays\" for each player to park their selected cars that will be used to battle against the other player.The loop is intricately designed to provide the cars with sufficient momentum as they zoom at high speeds up its curve. The launch pad is all about controlled power; its adjustable speed lever lets you dictate the initial speed of your car. Following this initial \u2018blast\u2019, the car then drops in from the ramp onto the loop before being received in the landing zone - which comes equipped with an exciting trapdoor feature!And what\u2019s a race without competitors? Hence, there are two \"launchpads\" for two racers to enjoy this exhilarating\u00a0Hot Wheels Action Loop & Launch Toy set. I would go as far as to call the so-called launchpads\u00a0smashing pads \ud83d\ude02 instead. Don't worry, this toy had been designed to weather the \"Hulk\" in you.Experience and ImpressionsNow let me delve into my experience as a father who had the pleasure of giving his son this fantastic playset. The moment I laid eyes on this track set, I was swept away by its intricate design and robust quality. I felt like a kid again!

In fact, a reliable and feature-rich smartwatch is essential to everyone right now. Behold the brand new Kieslect Calling Watch Ks, complete with calling capability. Besides, being able to make crystal clear calls (more on this later). this smartwatch is packed with tonnes of features that will blow your mind for sure!Kieslect Calling Watch Ks ReviewYours truly me have been an owner of a few smartwatches for quite some time, but I have yet to find the perfect smartwatch that will fit right on my wrist; That is until I meet Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Truth be told, this latest smartwatch of mine is an accidental discovery. I stumbled upon it when I was hunting for a new smartwatch. Its bright orange and yellow strap caught my attention and that was when I knew I needed to get one for myself.Available in 60 Different CountriesHonestly, I had never heard about Kieslect before this. Turns out Kieslect has been around since 2017 and is employing 600 people globally\u00a0to be its assets. Kieslect products including the Kieslect Calling Watch Ks that I have purchased are certified with CE, RoHS, FCC and UKCA. This goes to show that this brand adheres to the highest standard and is a trustworthy brand.Award-winning Kieslect SmartwatchesKieslect has at least 5,000 retail outlets in more than 60 countries. Its presence in so many nations including Malaysia as well as the various stringent certifications it has received give me complete peace of mind to purchase it. The icing on the cake is to know that Kieslect has won numerous international awards including the prestigious iF Design Award, Red Dot Design Award, and the reputable German Design Award just to name a few. This goes to show that the designs of its smartwatches are incredibly stunning and fashionable. These include Kieslect Smart Calling Watch Kr, Kieslect Calling Watch Kr Pro, and Kieslect Lady Calling Watch Lora just to name a few.Suitable for Work, Play and ExerciseI admit that Kieslect Calling Watch Ks\u00a0caught my eye because it looks really fashionable and cool. Its beautiful design makes it suitable for work, play and of course, exercise as well. Having said so,\u00a0this smartwatch from Kieslect is not just eye candy. There is more to it than meets the eye. In fact, I am shocked to know how good it is the moment I slapped it on my wrist. Let's take a deep dive with me to read my review of Kieslect Calling Watch Ks, shall we?Top 17 Reasons To Get Kieslect Calling Watch Ks1. Huge 1.78-inch AMOLED DisplayUnlike a lot of other fitness bands and smartwatches, the huge 1.78-inch AMOLED colourful display of Kieslect Calling Watch Ks\u00a0really stands out among its peers. I really love the vivid and vibrant colour of the display at 368x448 resolution. The best part is, even under the glaring hot sun, the brightness of the screen makes it easy to view anything that is on display. No more squinting my eyes or covering my smartwatch under the sun anymore. Two thumbs up!2. Super Responsive TouchscreenIn the past, I have been frustrated by my smartwatches with unresponsive touchscreens. That is not the case here with my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Every single touch input of mine can be detected quickly and accurately. This is crucial to make sure that I can navigate through the menus and options easily without the need to retap the screen again and again.3. Premium High-Quality Durable BuildDespite the Kieslect Calling Watch Ks' affordable price tag, I am utterly shocked by its high-quality, durable build. I was expecting it to be a bit \"plasticky\" but that is not the case here. In fact, I am impressed with the premium build that exudes so much class and elegance. Thanks to its CNC-polished metal casing and rotatable navigation crown, the smartwatch screams \"luxurious\" on my wrist! The magnetic straps really add that final posh touch to this sleek fashionable smartwatch.4. Abnormal Heart Rate WarningThis is a feature that all my previous smartwatches do not have-Abnormal Heart Rate Warning. Besides monitoring your heart rate non-stop 24/7, this Kieslect Calling Watch Ks of mine will even alert me when my heart starts beating abnormally, outside the usual range. This will be ideal for me as I exercise a lot and I have a very demanding stressful job. Of course, I hope this will never be triggered. \ud83e\udd235. Your Doctor on Your WristI would love to liken my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks to my very own personal doctor right on my wrist.\u00a0 Besides the aforementioned Abnormal Heart Rate Warning, this smartwatch is also packed with SPO2, Continuous Heart Rate Monitoring, Sleep Monitoring, Breathing Training, Stress Test and even Emotion Test. There is even breathing training to help you to stop and relax for a while. Yupe! With Kieslect Calling Watch Ks,\u00a0I feel like I have a mini, mobile doctor to be by my side all the time.6. Multi-purpose Second ButtonAnother ingenious design for this Kieslect Calling Watch Ks is its multi-purpose second button right under the rotatable navigation crown. Besides the crown, you can maximise your user experience by taking advantage of the second button which serves so many different functions. With a single press, you will enter Sports Mode immediately. Pressing the button twice will activate the powerful voice assistant. Long press-and-hold will trigger the SOS Help Mode. Very, very useful button if you ask me!7. Choose from 100 Sports ModesBesides being a fashionable smartwatch, my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks\u00a0also doubles up as my fitness coach. I can choose from the 100 different sports modes to track my activities and fitness level. All my usual activities are right there from outdoor running to strength training. Interestingly, you can also track your martial arts practice and dancing. So every movement is counted towards your fitness goals.8. Superb Kie OS AppA smartwatch without a good accompanying app will be very limited. I will admit that initially, I had little to no expectations when it comes to the accompanying app of my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. The moment the Kie OS Application was installed on my smartphone, I was utterly blown away by it. The app is extremely mature and well-developed to the extent that I could not believe this is actually coming from a brand I have never heard of before. How ignorant of me! \ud83d\ude31The Kie OS Application boasts a user-friendly interface and navigation around the app is really intuitive and snappy. At a glance, you can easily see all the important details and information on the different tabs namely Activity, Workouts, Device and Me. The whole layout is very thoughtful and well-arranged. So kudos to the developers who have poured in so much effort to polish this superb app. I would go as far as to claim that the Kie OS Application is one of the best smartwatch apps I have used.9. Crystal Clear Calling Using SmartwatchI did not expect that I could make a phone call just by using my smartwatch. Yes. The Kieslect Calling Watch Ks is my very first smartwatch with calling capability. I am not going to lie; In the beginning, I was sceptical about its calling feature because of its affordable price point. I made my first phone call using my smartwatch and there is no turning back for me anymore (at least occasionally). \ud83d\ude01I can't believe that my calls using this Kieslect Calling Watch Ks can be so crystal clear. I was flabbergasted when I made my first \"smartwatch calling\". Everything was unbelievably clear and the person on the other end could hear my natural voice perfectly well too. Thanks to the Bluetooth 5.2 connection together with the outstanding integrated speakers and microphone, calling any via my smartwatch can now be done seamlessly. I notice that I do look cooler when I call someone just by using my smartwatch (with my smartphone in my pocket). \ud83d\ude0e10. AI Voice AssistantNone of my other smartwatches is equipped with a voice assistant. So, when I am really excited to know that I could \"command\" my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks to do a lot of things for me such as making phone calls, starting my exercise and even setting alarms for me just to name a few. All I have to do is double-click on the multi-purpose second button. I wish I could rename it as Jarvis thought. \ud83e\udd1611. Games on my SmartwatchThis is one of the interesting features of my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Don't get me wrong, there are tonnes of other apps and features this new smartwatch of mine has, but being able to play games on my wrist is a first for me. Though at the moment there are only 2 integrated games available namely Flappy Bird and 2048, both of them have done a good job entertaining me when I need a mini break.12. Control Your MusicThanks to the intuitive music player, I can now switch the songs that I am listening to without the need to reach out to my smartphone. I can even increase or decrease the volume of my music just by rotating the crown. With just a few taps, I could enjoy my favourite tunes the way I want them. Do you know that you can also listen to your music right from the smartwatch itself? I can't believe music is now playing right on my wrist. The clarity and volume of the music coming from the smartwatch's speakers are really impressive. \ud83c\udfb513. Always on Display (AOD)This is truly an underrated feature that I love about my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Without the need to \"wake up\" my smartwatch, I could get all the important information at a glance such as the time (of course), date and the number of steps I have made. Alternatively, you can opt to display a world clock as your AOD instead. I personally believe that AOD is a must-have feature for all fitness bands and smartwatches if you ask me.14. IP68 WaterproofI am glad to know that my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks comes with IP68 waterproof function. Essentially, it is able to withstand raindrops (no more worries while jogging in the rain) and water splashes. I did let my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks be sprayed with water. Of course, it is still usable as usual.15. Tonnes of Smartwatch FacesI am taking full advantage of the huge AMOLED display and vivid colours of my smartwatch screen by changing its faces from time to time. My Kieslect Calling Watch Ks comes with 5 default faces that I could easily change among them. Interestingly, there are even more available for free download by using the Kie OS application. All of them look really premium and well-designed. From colourful faces to analogue ones, rest assured that you will find a lot of smartwatch faces\u00a0that will make deciding difficult. It happens to me all the time. \ud83d\ude0216. Swappable Smartwatch StrapsIt is very rare that you will get another extra strap for your smartwatch but that's what I am getting with my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. Besides the ultra-cool fancy magnetic straps, Kieslect is generous enough to throw in another pair of black silicone straps that are really easy on my skin. When I am exercising, I will usually switch to this pair of silicone straps. So, thank you Kieslect.17. Outstanding Battery LifeOn paper, my\u00a0Kieslect Calling Watch Ks has a rated 5-day battery life. I have tried it and on average my battery life could last at least around 2 days up to 3 days max which is really decent for me since I have ramped up the brightness on the huge 1.78-inch AMOLED display and used a lot of its features ranging from notifications to playing games. So getting at least 48 hours for my heavy usage before needing another charge is pretty ok for me.This relatively outstanding battery life is possible thanks to the 2-in-1 chip under the hood of my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks. In fact, it is only the 3rd 2-in-1 Core calling chip in the world, after Apple and Samsung. Therefore, the power consumption of my smartwatch is 30% lower than that of a dual chip, allowing it to compete with the top 10 thin Calina watches in terms of battery life.Feature-rich SmartwatchThere you go folks, the top 17 features of my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks that I am in love with right now. Of course, there are tonnes of other equally amazing features that I did not include in the above list. I appreciate the fact that I could easily take photos using my smartphone just by controlling it with my smartwatch. The other features that I have used quite a lot include the weather forecast, alarm, calculator, torch, timer and stopwatch.If you are a globe trotter, you can also make good use of its World Clock. Just add any city of your choice and voila, you can know the time on the other side of the world. Want to look for your missing smartphone? Hit the Find My Phone feature, and your smartphone will be buzzing you in no time. I discovered that I could also password-protect my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks which is really cool if you are worried that it might get stolen. \ud83d\ude05Kieslect Calling Watch Ks Price and WarrantyHow much did I pay to get this all-in-one feature-rich Kieslect Calling Watch Ks? For just RM349, I could have a smartwatch with calling capabilities together with a super huge ultra-bright AMOLED display as well as tonnes of other features that make my life a whole lot easier. Kieslect Calling Watch Ks also comes with\u00a0a one-year replacement warranty for me to exchange it for a brand new unit should it get faulty which I doubt will happen thanks to its amazing build and quality.Watch my Kieslect Calling Watch Ks in Action!

So you can buy the Kieslect Calling Watch Ks for only RM339, which is a steal. Wish I had seen this code earlier. But do hurry up ok as this Kieslect promo code will only last for a limited time.

On the complimentary protective case-cum-kickstand is also in the box.Top Main Features of\u00a0PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 161. Huge 15.6-inch DisplayMy default laptop only has a display size of 13-inch which I am struggling with due to its relatively small screen size. That is why I am loving the huge 15.6-inch display of my PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16. It provides me with large \"screen real estate\" for me to get my work done. In fact, thanks to the big display, I could get my work done even more quickly as I do not need to switch between tabs and windows all the time.2. Ultraslim + Ultralight at 0.75kgDespite its huge display, you would think that PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 will be quite heavyweight, right? Contrary to that popular belief, it is really featherweight, tipping the scale at a mere 0.75kg only. Let's look at its dimension, shall we?The 15.6-inch display is encased in a form factor measuring 359mm in width and 229mm in height.

That is why I do not really feel any eye strain or even fatigue though I am using it for quite a number of hours daily.6. Impressive Built-in SpeakersFrankly speaking, I was not expecting this portable display to have built-in speakers. After all, they are not the usual standalone \"extra\" monitors. So, it is a pleasant surprise when I discovered that PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 comes with built-in stereo speakers.Thanks to the pair of 1.5-watt stereo speakers, you can now enjoy your videos and audio tracks on the go. It actually sounds way better than my laptop's very own muffled speakers if you ask me.

As aforementioned, the colours, clarity, and contrast of the display alone are enough to make me want to get it. The display is better than that of my laptop and smartphone (in terms of sheer size). The ability to use it as an extended screen is a huge bonus when I multitask as well. For RM1,399, I believe PRISM+ Nomad Ultra 16 is a steal if you ask me.

It is so good that my family and I decided to return for our second staycation in this luxurious 5-star hotel. Read our Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room review to find out why this is the ultimate staycation for a family who needs comfortable, opulent space for you to rest and relax.Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room ReviewJust when I thought that Sheraton PJ Hotel could no longer surprise me anymore, I was astonished to know that they had upgraded my rooms to Club Room. It is not only way bigger and more spacious, but also comes with Sheraton PJ Club Longue access \ud83d\ude01 (more on this later). Honestly, we totally did not expect this at all!We first stayed at Sheraton PJ Hotel two years ago in the same room. However, both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl have really grown up so much. So they require extra space when they sleep. We could no longer cram everyone in the same bed. LOL \ud83d\ude02 Luckily, Sheraton PJ Hotel is currently running this promotion whereby parents and their children get to stay in adjacent rooms, side-by-side (subject to availability).Sheraton PJ Hotel Deluxe King Club Lounge Access RoomNow let's get back to our rooms, shall we?\u00a0There are altogether 253 contemporary rooms and suites in this palatial 5-star hotel. In our previous stay, our Deluxe King Room was already very huge and spacious and these upgraded rooms with Club Longue access are even bigger. We had two rooms which are almost identical but differed in terms of mattress(es) available.Sheraton PJ Hotel Deluxe Twin Club Lounge Access RoomMy wife and I had the room with King size mattress while Jordan and Jasmine had the room next door with the twin double beds. As expected of Sheraton PJ Hotel, the decorations inside are as grand as ever. We couldn't help but feel the rooms are super cozy thanks to the brilliant selection of materials, furniture, bedding, and lighting.\u00a0The whole ambiance inside the rooms was very soothing. Certainly, world-class interior designers have worked their magic on these rooms.Our Sheraton PJ Hotel BathroomI am not going to lie that we all love to take our showers and baths in this hotel. We (especially the kids) were really eager to relish the latest premium Le Grand Bain bath amenities that were created especially for Sheraton PJ Hotel! The retractable blinder of the bathroom allowed us to dip in the posh bathtub and watch TV at the same time.\u00a0The bathroom is equally big with a separate room for the shower and a bathtub. Ladies and girls will appreciate the magnifying mirror with LED.Retractable Blinder To Our See-through BathroomWe also truly enjoyed our 2 nights of staycation in the Sheraton PJ Hotel. Thanks to Sheraton Signature Sleep Experience, the mattress had this mystifying hypnotic magic to lull us to sleep instantaneously. I guess it can't be helped thanks to the cushy pillows, comfortable duvet, crisp linens, and of course, the huge plush mattress. It felt like the mattress could melt all our exhaustion and anxiety (if any) away and allowed us to wake up feeling invigorated.Sheraton Signature Sleep ExperienceIt is a shame to say that I still needed to work while on vacation and thankfully, there is a huge wooden table for me in our Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Room. I appreciate the provided workstation complete with a table lamp and super high-speed Internet access. I felt glad that I could still do some work while enjoying our holidays, away from home.Workstation at Sheraton PJ HotelThere is a mini fridge for you to chill your beverages or food. We also got to enjoy premium coffee and tea (on the house). There is also a safe for you to store your important belongings just in case you need to be away from your room but I did not use it since I felt perfectly safe to lay my stuff in the room. Other common amenities include a hairdryer, ironing board plus iron, and a shaver just to name a few. in other words, you will have everything you need here.Facilities at Sheraton PJ HotelAs I have aforementioned, both our Club Rooms in Sheraton PJ Hotel allow us to have access to the by-invitation-only space Sheraton Club Lounge. So every day, starting from 6pm until 9pm hotel guests with club lounge access will get to enjoy unlimited food, snacks, and desserts plus free-flow of beverages which include whisky, red wine, and beer just to name a few. Nothing beats enjoying premium wine while basking in the ambiance of ritzy decor overlooking the surrounding areas through the window walls (floor-to-ceiling windows). This is a luxurious experience like no other for sure!Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Lounge AccessAll in all, my family and I are super impressed with our\u00a0Sheraton PJ Hotel Club Rooms. It is still one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in for our holidays. It is incredulous that we stayed in the hotel the whole time (3 days) without leaving it as we had so much to enjoy from the glorious food to the relaxing swimming time that we had. So if you are looking for one of the best hotels to stay in the PJ area or should say in KL or near KL, then Sheraton PJ Hotel should be your number 1 choice.Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel Review 2020Sheraton PJ Breakfast BuffetYue Sheraton PJ Chinese RestaurantMiyabi Sheraton PJ OmakaseSheraton PJ Hotel Swimming PoolsSheraton PJ Hotel GymSheraton PJ HotelWebsite:\u00a0https://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/szbsi-sheraton-petaling-jaya-hotel/Sheraton PJ Contact Number:\u00a003-7622 8888Sheraton PJ Email:\u00a0sheraton.petalingjaya@sheraton.com"} {"title": "Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra Review", "body": "I already have a Roborock G10 robot vacuum plus mop to help me clean my house. Overall, I am pretty happy with its work performance. But what if I want something even better? Enter Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra. This is the ultimate robot vacuum to help you vacuum your floors and mop them effortlessly without you being involved at all.Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra ReviewMany robot vacuums seem to be very promising at the beginning. However, a lot of them will give you extra work eventually. These robot vacuums will end up getting stuck on your carpets, cables, and almost everything you have left on your floor. In the end, instead of helping you to clean your house, you need to go and help your robot vacuum to get \"unstuck\".If you need a robot vacuum that is really intelligent and packed with features then you need to get the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra. It is a true hassle-free smart robot vacuum that can help you to clean your house to make it spick and span. In other words, it can really vacuum and mop your whole house on its own without you needing to lift a finger.Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra+ Ultra DockThe perfect combo!For the uninitiated, the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra comes with an Ultra Dock, which is really a gamer changer. Unlike other robot vacuum, its water tank can be refilled on its own. In fact, even the dirt that has been vacuumed will be handled by the Roborock vacuum itself. Let's have a look.Roborock Ultra Dock1. Auto Water Tank RefillingThe Ultra Dock will automatically refill the water tank of Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra without needing you to do it manually again and again. So now you will have an extended mopping coverage of 300 square metres. Your whole house can be vacuumed and mopped clean entirely by your Roborock vacuum without any intervention on your part.2. Mop Auto-CleaningNow the mop piece that is attached to the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra can be cleaned on its own thanks to the Ultra Dock. A brush will be deployed to actively rotate and remove dirt and debris from the mop piece. So there is no need for you detach it and scrub it clean on your own. On top of that, the Ultra Dock will also clean the base of the dock by siphoning any dirty water from the washing of the mop piece into the water tank designated for dirty water. See! It is fully automated!The Ultra Dock will clean the mop piece for you!3. Auto-emptying DustbinThis is a feature that I really wish my Roborock G10 would have, which is the, auto-emptying dustbin. Hence, an upgradeto Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is timely and necessary for me. Thanks to the Ultra Dock, all the dirt, hair and dust vacuumed can be transferred to the dedicated dust bag compartment. The removable dust bag has 7days' of capacity storage before needing a change. That is close to 2 months!Top 7 Features of Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra1. Real-Time Video CallThis has got to be the most unexpected feature that I have discovered on my Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra. Besides being your super intelligent robot vacuum, the S7 MaxV Ultra is equipped with cameras and a microphone for video calling. This is so freaking cool if you ask me. So it can double up as a remote viewing CCTV at home with wheels.Watch Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra Video Call FunctionYou can actually see what the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is seeing. With the integrated microphone, you can also talk to the person near the robot vacuum by using the Roborock App. By using the \"Pin n Go\"feature, you can also command your robot vacuum to a spot without doing any cleanup. In other words, you can use the live camera feed of the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra to stalk on your pets (if any) or your family members. You can even use it to check on blind spots inside your house which is not covered by CCTV. OMG!2. Powerful Suction ForceA robot vacuum without powerful suction force is like a flower vase for decorations only. Do you know that a lot of normal vacuums in the market only comes with 2,500pa of suction power? The Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is packed with up to a staggering 5,200pa of suction power to suck up everything on its way. Ha \ud83d\ude01 Hit the Max+ mode and nothing can escaped being vacuumed.3. Super Intelligent Preci-Sense LiDAR Navigation for Obstacles AvoidanceBesides the renowned Preci-Sense LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), the S7 MaxV Ultra is\u00a0 also equipped with advanced Structured Light 3D sensor for more accurate, fast and efficient navigation while doing clean-up. Thanks to its Reactive AI 2.0 and latest Neural Processing Unit, navigation and obstacle avoidance is now a walk in the park. The Reactive AI 2.0 has more advanced RGB light for laser accurate detection.Thanks to the presence of LED Fill Light, vacuuming and mopping in low-light spots of dark rooms will not be a breeze. In other words, it can effectively and accurately navigate around our house to vacuum and mop all the time regardless of the time, day or night.4. Vibrarise Sonic Vibration MappingNo disrespect to any other robot vacuums, but we know that a lot of so-called robot vacuum that has mopping feature cannot really mop. You read it right. These companies use this claim as a mere gimmick to persuade you to purchase a half-baked feature. Enter sonic vibration technology that has transformed the mopping capabilities of Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra. It virabtes up to 3,000 times per minute and this mimics the action of deep-scrubbing to clean your floor surface effectively.5. Auto-Mop LiftingBesides the Vibrarise Sonic Vibration feature, the S7 MaxV Ultra also comes with auto-mop lifting technology to make sure that your whole house can be vacuumed and mopped regardless of the carpets that \"stand\" in its way. Yupe! Once a carpet is being detected, the mop will automatically be lifted up to continue with its clean-up. The carpet will be vacuumed and mopped at the same time, making it clean and dry.6. Intelligent 3D MappingIntelligent 3D is perhaps the most underatted feature of Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra. Thanks to LiDAR, this robot vacuum can easily and accurate map the whole house for cleaning up. Now my sofa, bar table, dining chairs and other furniture can easily be detected with its advanced sensors. So all the identified objects will be mapped and shown in the 2D, 3D as well as Matrix (3D Mock-up of your house) Maps.7. Avoiding Unknown Objects Like a ProAs aforementioned, Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is capable of streaming live feed, right? Do you know that this robot vacuum has not one but two cameras. Thes dual-cameras will allow S7 MaxV Ultra to view its surrounding way better. The cameras can identify objects as we small as 5cm in width and 3cm in height.\u00a0 So no more worries about this robot vacuum getting tangled in cables or bump into your children's toys.All in all, from its powerful suction force to its amazing mopping ability, it appears that everything about the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is excellent. I am especially thrilled by the video call capabilities. The auto-emptying bin is a much-needed addition too. Overall, I love the quality build of this robot vacuum and mop, which certainly exudes so much premium luxurious vibes to it. Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is an excellent vacuum and mop robot that I believe a lot of families in Malaysia and Asean countries would love to have.[\u00a0Best deal on Shopee ##thumbs-up##\u00a0]Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra Robot Vacuum and MopWebsite:\u00a0https://global.roborock.comFacebook:\u00a0https://www.facebook.com/RoborockMyInstagram:\u00a0https://www.instagram.com/roborock_myTwitter:\u00a0https://www.twitter.com/roborockglobal"} {"title": "Dorzal Max Ergonomic Chair from One Office-Complete Review", "body": "If\nyou are looking for the perfect ergonomic chair for office and home use, then\nyou really need to get this Dorzal Max Ergonomic Chair from One Office. This might be the best ergonomic chair in Malaysia at the moment. Do you know that you might be sitting in the wrong chair in your office or at home for way too long already? Chances are that your work, health, and even happiness have been affected in one way or another no thanks to a chair that is not ergonomic.Dorzal Max Ergonomic Chair from One Office\nTo begin, Dorzal Max from One Office is arguably one of the best ergonomic chairs I have ever tried before. I currently have 3 so-called ergonomic chairs at home and none can be mentioned in the same breath as this one. For starters, Dorzal Max boasts excellent posture support\nthat can effectively reduce lower back pain, neck pain as well as hip\npressure.Best Ergonomic Chair For Office\nBosses!\nIf you want more productive, healthier employees you really need to get this ergonomic\nchair from One Office. I think they will love working in the office thanks to their new super comfortable chair (that feels like a bed). They might even cut short their lunch break and put in extra OT without even complaining about it. It will be an investment that pays huge dividends. \ud83d\ude02Chairs That Are Not ErgonomicEven an \"ergonomic\" chair is not really ergonomic! \ud83d\ude02It is not the same. Not even close! \ud83d\ude24For those who work from home, or you simply sit a lot carrying out your hobby such as drawing, painting, and gaming just to name a few, then you really need to pamper yourself with this Dorzal Max Ergonomic Chair. This chair will take care of your health and help you to be more efficient and even more creative? It is time to love yourself more.\u00a0 Let's look at the features of the Dorzal Max, shall we?\nTop 10 Features of Dorzal Max Ergonomic Chair\n1. Premium Voronoi Netweave FabricLet's face it. You are going to be seated for long hours when you are working. So at least, you will need a very comfortable chair to sit in. Comfort is the top priority when it comes to an ergonomic chair. That is\nwhy Dorzal Max is designed with Premium Voronoi Netweave Fabric. It feels like I am sitting on clouds!Can you see my finger at the back?There is no cushion, sponge, or memory foam gel whatsoever underneath the fabric. This is unheard of, at least for me. Unbelievably, this is why the chair is so freaking comfortable. The grid-weaving technology allows the chair to be super breathable and at the same time can firmly and comfortably support our whole body. The premium Voronoi Netweave Fabric is\nvery skin-friendly. So bye-bye to feeling stuffy and sticky.\n2. Built To Withstand 300 KG of WeightDespite being made with the Voronoi Netweave Fabric which is highly breathable, the Dorzal Max ergonomic chair can still\u00a0withstand up to a whopping 300kg of weight. To test this claim, I actually tried jumping on it. Prior to doing so, I was afraid that my feet would pierce through the seemingly \"thin\" fabric as it appeared to be only one layer thick.So I jumped, and jumped and jumped on the Dorzal Max and I can now personally vouch that it can truly withstand up to 300 KG of weight. (Please refer to my video) This is possible thanks to its high-quality, reinforced\nmaterials. So if you have \"heavy bones\" or you are worried that this chair cannot support your weight, I hope you do not have to be worried now.\n3. True 2-Way Adjustable Cushioned Lumbar SupportAnother\nmain reason why you need to get this ergonomic chair from One Office is that\nit has this amazing 2-way adjustable cushioned lumbar support.\nYes! Lumbar support that can be adjusted to support your lower back for maximum\ncomfort. It can be moved inward and outward as well as upward and downward.In other words, you can adjust this cushioned lumbar support until it hits your sweet spot to give your lower back that super comfortable support that you deserve. It is really a dream come true for those who need to sit for really long hours. For the record, none of my other ergonomic chairs at home and in the office can do this. Does your chair have adjustable multi-directional lumbar support? With cushion?4. Slider Seatpad With Curvilinear Seat Design\nIf you think that adjustable lumbar support is rare, this next feature is even rarer. Behold the awesome Slider Seatpad. Literally, your seat can slide out to match your needs. That means you can adjust the depth of your seat according to what you are\ndoing. You can move it forward should the need arises. Personally, I feel even more comfortable when I slide my seat to the front. It's like I get to enjoy a bigger seat.Change the depth of your seat easily.The curvilinear seat design of Dorzal Max is also a feature that should be available in all ergonomic chairs. This design reduces\npressure on your hip and calf. So even if you need to be seated for long hours, your hip will be thanking you as there will be virtually no strain anymore.\n5. Adjustable 4-D ArmrestIf\nyou sit for long hours in front of the computer or at the table, you will\nappreciate the adjustable 4D armrest of this ergonomic chair from\nOne Office. 4D indicates that the armrests can be adjusted in 4 different directions to suit your needs; Or more precisely the needs of your hands.Now you can adjust the armrests\u2019 height. There are 6\u00a0different heights to choose from. Talking about being highly adjustable, right? You can also move the armrests forward and\nbackward and you can even adjust them to move inward or outward. It doesn\u2019t\nmatter if you are playing games, playing the guitar, or simply chilling out\nwatching movies, your \u201carms\u201d will love the adjustable 4D armrest.\n6. Adjustable Headrest with Ultra-Soft CushionBesides\nour lower back, our neck and head need to be pampered too. That is why the\nDorzal Max by One Office is built with an adjustable headrest with\nultra-soft cushion for the best neck and head support. You can move the headrest upward and downward to give your neck and your head that perfect resting place.I love the headrest' plush and comfortable cushion. Covered by a layer of the premium Voronoi Netweave Fabric, the headrest feel is definitely one of the best I have tried in my life. None has such a thick cushion, to begin with. I feel like I could\njust doze off anytime whenever I lay my head on it. \ud83d\ude01\n7. Easy to Adjust Chair HeightYou can also easily adjust the height of the Dorzal Max ergonomic chair to suit your height or according to whatever activities you need to carry out. Unlike certain chairs, adjusting the height could be a daunting task. Sometimes, it does not budge at all or it suddenly shoots up or slams down. The good news is, the height adjustment mechanism of this chair is really easy, fluid, and fast.World Grade Heavy Duty-Class 4 gas lift!With Dorzal Max, you can adjust the height of your chair safely. All\nthis is possible thanks to its World Grade Heavy Duty-Class 4 gas lift. This is\nthe highest class available at the moment and it is SGS and BIFMA certified. So\nnow your ergonomic chair can move up and down\u2026literally like a boss. Do you know that adjusting the height of a substandard office chair might result in an explosion that could kill you? So make sure to only use an office chair that complies with safety protocols ok.\n8. Auto-Detect Backrest Recline TensionSometimes we just want to relax and sit back to take a break from our work right? It will be nice if our chair could recline to the perfect angle and let our body feel suspended at the same time, no? What if your chair does not have any fail-safe? Then it will over-recline and you will be tumbling and hitting your head. Sounds familiar? This has happened to me before. \ud83d\ude02That is why I love my new ergonomic chair from One Office thanks to its auto-detect backrest\nrecline tension of up to 35 degrees. The Dorzal Max\u2019s intuitive recline\ndetector comes with 3 locking positions, so you do not have to worry that you\nand the chair will tumble down like your other ordinary ergonomic chairs (in the past). Now you can just sit back and really relax without any worry.\n9. Premium Aluminium Leg BaseAs I have aforementioned, this ergonomic chair from One Office is really\nheavy-duty and can withstand a staggering 300 kg of weight, right? That is possible\nthanks to its durable premium aluminium leg base. For the record, the aluminium leg base of this Dorzal Ergonomic Chair has achieved a static impact\ntest of up to 1.2 tonne (1,200kg).\u00a0Can you spot the difference? The one on the right is Dorzal Max!Usually, the leg base of other office chairs is merely made of ordinary metal or plated materials that will suffer from wear and tear. Eventually, such leg bases will rust and even break apart. You might even risk injury if you are not careful. On the other hand, the leg base of this ergonomic chair is built entirely using high-quality aluminium. Rest assured that it will last for a very long, long time.\n10. Durable Chrome CastorsIf you like to move your ergonomic chair around the house a lot, like me, you will love the\nchrome castors. Mind you these are not the ordinary casters found\nin other chairs; Instead, these are huge, durable anti-noise and anti-floor scratch twin wheel high-pressure PU casters. They are bigger than the usual ones. Take a look at the photos I snapped to view the comparison.Is Dorzal Max by One Office Really Good?\nAfter using my Dorzal Max Ergonomic Chair for more than 1 month, I can confidently vouch for its quality and comfort. I did not know this is what it feels like to be sitting in a real ergonomic chair. Now working long hours using my computer is no longer that tiring. It is so comfortable that I have slept in this new ergonomic chair of mine a couple of times already. I doubt I could ever sit in an ordinary chair after this. \ud83d\ude02Watch\u00a0Dorzal Max Ergonomic Chair from One OfficeSo if you are really looking for a \"real\" ergonomic chair that can provide the best lumbar support and offer maximum comfort and safety, you really need to get this Dorzal Max Ergonomic Chair from One Office.

Good lighting is crucial and\u00a0that is why I really love my latest Dyson Solarcycle Morph desk light. In my opinion, it is the best desk lamp that money can buy right now. After using it for a few months, I am confident that I do not need another desk lamp for the rest of my life, like seriously!Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light ReviewFor the uninitiated, Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light was previously known as Lightcyle but I agree that the latest name reflects the desk lamp even better. Names aside, know that this state-of-the-art Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light has been designed to provide the best artificial lighting for us, especially when we are indoors.Let's Unbox Our Dyson Solarcycle MorphDone assembling our Dyson desk lamp!The Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light has seen remarkably huge upgrades compared to its predecessor. Apparently, it is able to track local daylight intelligently. In other words, this avant-garde desk lamp can detect and track natural daylight in its surroundings and brilliantly transforms it to provide us with the best lighting needs.The Best Desk Lamp For My Home Office and Computer WorkWith the Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light, I can enjoy the right light at the right time for my home office when I am doing my computer work. Like all other Dyson products, this desk lamp boasts precision-engineered mechanics that can allow you to change the light format to suit how you want to enjoy your illumination be it for work, study, relaxation, or entertainment. Thanks to it, I can really stay focused on my work. Hence, it is no doubt the best desk lamp for my home office and computer work.If you take advantage of the MyDyson App, you can even adjust the desk lamp based on your tasks, age, mode, and of course your local daylight. Therefore, you can personalize the light to suit your every need from the crack of dawn until twilight or in my case after midnight. My world is now really brighter thanks to this new desk lamp of mine.It Has\u00a0360\u00b0 FlexibilityAnother reason to get this Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light is because of its mind-blowing\u00a0360\u00b0 maneuverability. Unlike other ordinary, run-of-the-mill table lighting, this desk lamp from Dyson can be adjusted to provide lighting the way you need it. It can be twisted and turned\u00a0360\u00b0 so that you get the perfect lighting to illuminate the exact spot that you want.You will no longer be limited as this can be moved in any direction that you need to get the light that you want. It's like the light itself can be moved and focused on where you want it to shine, regardless of the angle and height. This is definitely an underrated feature that needs highlighting! Honestly, I have never seen a desk lamp with such \"flexibility\".The 4 Different Forms of Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light:1. Indirect LightWhen you use Dyson Solarcycle Morph as indirect light, the intelligent optical head will smoothly rotate 360\u00b0 to bounce light off walls, floors, and ceilings. In this mode, natural light can be indirectly available at your disposal. You enjoy it when you switch to this indirect light mode. Usually, this indirect light setting is used when you just want the room to be illuminated when you chill out, sip your coffee, and enjoy some music or do your leisure reading.2. Task LightThis is the format of lighting that I use the most with my Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light.\u00a0If you require specialised illumination, this is the type of lighting you should select. Task Light will be suitable for a concentrated, intense light for work, hobbies, makeup applications, as well as intricate tasks. I use this mainly when I do paperwork or when I need to really brainstorm some ideas while using my laptop.Rest assured that Solarcycle Morph is engineered to help you reduce your eye strain and improve visual performance especially when you are in the midst of a visually demanding task. Hence I must say that this is the best desk lamp for my home office, the best desk lamp for my computer work and it is the best desk lamp for studying (especially for my kids).3. Feature LightIn this lighting mode, you can highlight whatever you want to put on display. With Feature Light, you can elevate say your artwork, collectibles, antiques, or anything that you want to shine the limelight on. In this mode, the light can create dramatic effects, highlighting art, colours, and decorative features of what you put on the \"exhibition\". The breathtaking 3-Point Revolve motion enables precise positioning that will definitely bring out the best in your subjects. Honestly, this is the mode that I use the least. \ud83d\ude024. Ambient LightWhen I am not doing anything serious or attention-demanding, I will switch my Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk Light to Ambient Light mode. This is certainly one of my favourite forms of light. The stem lights up to create a soothing, orange glow that will not only be pleasing to the eyes but also set a comforting ambiance around it. When I want to watch something on Netflix and enjoy my late-night supper, I will activate Ambient Light to set the mood right.The Magic Behind Dyson Solarcyle Morph Desk LightIf you ask me, this desk lamp from Dyson is really magical. This is especially evident when you activate the Ambient Light mode! The unbelievably Intelligent Optical Head with 360\u00b0 maneuverability is attached to the stem. The stem is machined to a depth of 0.7mm and made from extruded aluminium to provide a unique combination of excellent impact resistance and smooth, light motion. The micro perforations produce a delicate gradient in the illuminated look, and the high reflecting surface within the aluminium core facilitates the light's perfect passage down the stem. To say the least, this sounds really incredible!The two ultra-thin exposed cables go through the centre of the Dyson Solarcycle Morph with a nearly transparent look. These wires, which are crimped at both ends under high tension, power the optical head in a nearly unnoticeable manner, so achieving a 360-degree, unbroken lighting effect on the stem. When docked as ambient light, the stem emits a soothing orange glow and may be customised for a restful evening by reducing the amount of damaging blue light. On the dock, a color-warming orange filter produces the warmest light levels by decreasing the colour temperature from 2,700K to 1,800K, simulating the hue of candlelight.Touch to Control Your Dyson Solarcycle Morph Desk LightIt Will Last Up to 60 Years!I mentioned that I do not need another desk lamp for the rest of my life, right? This is because it can last up to 60 years! Dyson's heat pipe technology removes heat from LEDs to enable a continuous, energy-free cooling cycle, preserving light quality for an astounding 60 years. Yes! You read correctly, guys! This Dyson Solarcycle Morph Light can last for up to six decades, and you may never need to replace it again. I can even envision my grandchildren utilising this desk lamp when I am gone. \ud83d\ude02The Best Desk Lamp For EyesI can use this desk lamp for hours non-stop as I do not suffer from eye strain whatsoever! Thank you Dyson! Low light, flickering, and glare are all known to cause eye strain and visual fatigue. The Dyson Solarcycle Morph was designed to efficiently minimise eye strain and enhance visual performance. Custom drivers and light engines enable the Intelligent Optical Head to generate a uniform distribution of high-quality, strong light with a flicker score of less than 1% at maximum brightness. If you are looking for the best desk lamp for your eyes, this is it.Turn On Precision ModeWhen the Precision Mode is activated on the Dyson Solarcycle Morph, a colour rendering index of at least 90 (out of 100) is achieved. In precision mode, the desk lamp will exhibit colours that are very close to those of daylight. When I draw something and colour it or while my children are doing some crafts, everything appears to be more realistic in this setting. Precision mode enhances visual performance by emitting a pool of high-intensity light with a lower colour temperature (4,600 Kelvin). If you are an artist, then this is the desk lamp for you.Your Personalised Desk LampDo you know that the older you get, the more light you will need?

How about mopping the house then? That's when you need the new Roborock G10: Vacuum and mop robot for your house. After reading this vacuum and mop robot review of mine, you will want to get one as well!Roborock G10 Review: Vacuum and Mop Robot For Your HouseHaving a main day job at the desk and other moonlighting work have really robbed me of my precious time. Sometimes, I have little to no time to clean my home. I could pick up my cordless vacuum or order my robot vacuum to do the vacuuming for me. But when it comes to mopping the whole house, it is a dreaded chore indeed.Those of you who do house chores know that mopping is really time-consuming, messy and not to mention wet! After removing all the visible dirt (to the naked eye) off the floor, you will then fill up a huge bucket of water to start mopping. Obviously, you cannot mop the whole floor in one go. You will need to clean the mop head and squeeze out the dirty water before continuing to mop again.Do I Need a Vacuum and Mop Robot?Then you will also need to change the dirty water. You can't continue to mop using the same dirty water, no? Imagine all the hassle that you have to go through, refilling the bucket with clean water, squeezing out the dirty water from the mop and washing the mop head again and again. At the end of the day, you will be drenched in sweat and probably dirty.With a vacuum and mop robot, you can just sit back and relax while it continues to do all the jobs for you! You could easily free up more of your time to carry out more meaningful tasks and activities at home, such as playing with your children, baking in the kitchen, doing exercise or simply chilling out with your family and watching Netflix. All this can be achieved by me now thanks to my Roborock G10!What is Roborock G10 Vacuum and Mop Robot?For the uninitiated, the Roborock G10 is your personal vacuum and mop robot that can help you sweep and mop the floor for the whole house. It comes with a huge water tank to store your clean water for it to carry out its mop self-washing duties. It will intelligently vacuum and mop your whole house and return to the dock to clean its mop and recharge.Top 12 Features of Roborock G101. Auto Self-Washing MopAs I have aforementioned, with the Roborock G10 you do not have to squeeze and wash your mop head anymore, let alone mop the whole house. Thanks to the advanced Roborock G10's dock (NOT sold separately), all the dirt and dirty water will be washed by the dock itself without you needing to lift a finger.The detachable mop cloth2. Self-Refill Water TankWhat I like about my new Roborock G10 is the fact that it can refill its water tank on its own without needing me to do so manually. Yupe! So the water tank in the robot vacuum will be refilled by the dock's water reservoir tank automatically. In Roborock Q7 Max, I have to add water to the water tank on my own and later the mopping cloth needs to be removed and washed. Each automatic refill of clean water allows Roborock G10 to vacuum and mop for a range of up to 300sqm (3230sgft) which is amazingly vast!3. The Dock for MoppingThe dock of Roborock G10 is where the important magic takes place. Without it, the features of self-cleaning mop and self-refill water tank for the robot vacuum will not be possible. The Roborock G10's dock has been designed with the primary focus on mopping in mind. When you lift the lid of the dock up, you will be greeted by two big containers.So what are the two containers for, you might ask? The container on the right is for the storage of clean water while the one on the left is used for storing dirty water. So instead of you detaching the mopping mat, the dock of Roborock G10 will wash the mat for you. The dirty water will then be stored in the container on the left. Then clean water from the right container will be transferred to fill up the empty tank of the robot vacuum.The huge water tank means you do not need to refill again and again!Both the containers are pretty big, meaning you can store quite a lot of clean water and dirty water at the same time. I only need to refill the clean water and remove the dirty water once every 10 days which is really brilliant. No more notifications every other day to refill the water tank. Having said so, the Roborock G10 vacuum and mop robot is really engineered for those who love to mop their home.4. Powerful SuctionThough the Roborock G10 is a mopping-centric robot vacuum, it does an equally commendable job in vacuuming our whole house as well. Thanks to its strong 2500Pa of suction, all dirt, debris and hair are effortlessly sucked into the built-in dust receptacle complete with an E11 HEPA\u00a0air filter. What goes in, remains trapped.You can adjust its suction power by using the Roborock app or you could allow it to do so automatically. I have witnessed how the Roborock G10 could adjust its own suction power when it faces its nemesis-the carpets. \ud83d\ude02 So it can detect the surface it is cleaning and change the power and intensity of the vacuum and mopping accordingly. Basically, this is a clever vacuum and mop robot that you should really have in your household.5. Sonic Mopping-3000 Times Per MinuteCoupled with the powerful suction of 2500Pa, the Roborock G10 is equipped with Sonic Mopping Technology. On the go, it can vibrate the mop pad at 3,000 times per minute. This equals 50 vibrations per second which is astonishing to say the least. That is why all the stubborn dirt on the floor surface can be scrubbed off effecively.6. Masson AI AlgorithmThanks to integrated Masson AI Algorithm, this vacuum and mop robot can easily avoid obstacles, get out of sticky situations such as cables, legs of tables and extension cords just to name a few. I have seen how agile it is in manouvring among the legs of my chairs in the dining room. So no worries about it bumping your furniture and knocking things off.7. Lifting Up For 2CMAnother interesting feature of Roborock G10 is its ability to \"jack\" itself up for as high as 2CM to vacuum and mop the house, as well as getting over obstacles. This allows the vacuum and mop robot to lift when there are bumps and hurdles lying on the floor such as carpets. Yes. So there will be no water stains on your carpets. It will also be lifted after cleaning to prevent dragging of dirt back across the floor. In standby mode, this uplifting talent of Roborock G10 enables to mop to dry faster and more thoroughly.8. Impressive 3D MappingThe Roborock G10's exceptional LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) system allows it to map your entire home in 3D. I am astounded by how precisely it could map my home in 3D. It's like if you had your own own 3D cartographer for your home. It will partition your home into distinct regions and rooms. The finest aspect is that additional details can be added to the 3D arrangement. You may add floor kinds and even furnishings for an even more precise and realistic portrayal of your home. By the way, you could save up to 4 different maps for Robrocok G10.9. Long Lasting 3 Hours of Battery LifeA robot vacuum is only as effective as its batteries, correct? The Roborock G10 is powered by an enormous 5,200mAh Li-ion battery that may last up to 3 hours or 180 minutes. Yes! Amazingly, this robot vacuum can operate for up to three hours on a single battery. It may cover an area of up to 300 square metres, which is enormous in my opinion. But I doubt most of us need that 3 hours of juice to vacuum and mop our whole house.Based on my repeated observations, it takes my Roborock G10 around 71 minutes (10 minutes more than Roborock Q7 Max) to cover my entire home (30 feet by 50 feet), excluding toilets and a wet kitchen. It must vacuum and mop my two living areas, dining area, dry kitchen, and four bedrooms. It will take approximately 71 minutes to cover 68 square metres of the cleaning area, and the battery will be depleted by approximately 30% for a \"whole house\" cleaning. Not bad at all!10. Mindblowing App ControlUnlike other half-baked, cumbersome and unnecessary apps, the Roborock App is essential. It is so well-designed that it is simple to use. In fact, the Roborock App is so user-friendly that even young children and senior folks can begin using it immediately. Using the app, I can also instruct my Roborock G10 to vacuum and mop our home while I'm at work. While I am away, I am able to observe my robot vacuum in action \"live.\" Occasionally, it is rather exciting to observe its movement on the 3D map.You will have complete control of your Roborock vacuum at a look. There are three modes available for house cleaning: Full, Rooms, and Zones. When you select the \"Full\" option, the entire home will be cleaned automatically. If you select a certain room or zone, your robot vacuum will move to that area and begin cleaning. You can also use the application to create No-Go zones and invisible barriers to seal off rooms and other areas of your home. I find this feature very useful especially when I have set up certain \"Ad-hoc\" tables in the house.I love how we could set No-Go Zone and Invisible Walls!My house floorplan in 3D! \ud83d\ude00In addition, you will have access to all relevant information on your robot vacuum, such as the cleaned area, battery level, cleaning time, and cleaning history, to name a few. The remote control capability allows you to \"pilot\" your robot vacuum cleaner. Using the app, you can also make routines for your robot vacuum to autonomously clean your home at predetermined intervals. You will also be reminded when the water level of your dock is low. Overall, you can accomplish a great deal with the incredible Roborock App.11. Use Your VoiceIf you do not wish to utilise the Roborock App to control your robot vacuum and mop, you can use your sweet voice instead. Using the power of my voice, I can effortlessly instruct my Roborock G10 to vacuum and mop my entire home or a specific room. This robot vacuum and mop supports Google Home, Apple Siri, and Amazon Alexa, as expected from Roborock.12. Child Lock For Your Children and PetsThe Child Lock feature is frequently disregarded by manufacturers of several electrical equipment. Thankfully, the Roborock features a separate Child Lock button on the vacuum and mop robot itself. This function will avoid any inadvertent activation by your curious and clumsy children. If you have a cat or dog as a pet, you may be assured that their curious probing or caressing will not trigger the robot vacuum, especially when you are not around. Better safe than sorry, no?VERDICT: Is Roborock G10 Worth It?After several days of using my Roborock G10 Max, I must declare that I am completely in love with it. To be honest, this is my first vacuum and mop robot with complete mop auto-cleaning and water tank auto-refill capabilities. Hence, my enthusiasm is understandable. Nonetheless, I must admire the Roborock engineers. So far, I have been unable to detect any flaws in my Roborock G10. It has surpassed my expectations in numerous ways.I must compliment the dock which looks truly beautiful. The choice of colours and designs blend in perfectly with my built-in TV cabinet. Though the dock might look a bit big as it needs to store two plastic containers inside of it, it is aesthetically pleasing to say the least. So kudos again to the designers for ticking the right boxes in the \"fashion\" department.All in all, from its suction power to its superior mopping ability, it appears that everything is ideal. I am ecstatic with the countless innovations that have made it so amazingly good. The Roborock App is extremely user-friendly and packed with additional functions and functionalities to maximise the performance of my vacuum and mop robot. Overall, I adore the quality built, which also feels quite premium. Roborock G10 is an excellent vacuum and mop robot that I believe a lot of families in Malaysia and Asean countries would love to have.[\u00a0Best deal on Shopee ##thumbs-up##\u00a0]Roborock Robot Vacuum and MopWebsite:\u00a0https://global.roborock.comFacebook:\u00a0https://www.facebook.com/RoborockMyInstagram:\u00a0https://www.instagram.com/roborock_myTwitter:\u00a0https://www.twitter.com/roborockglobal"} {"title": "Bayview Hotel Melaka Buffet Lunch Review 2022", "body": "If you are in Melaka and are looking for cheap buffet lunch that is delicious and has lots of variety, then you will need to try Bayview Hotel Melaka buffet lunch!

The Covid-19 pandemic has shown us how risky it is to breathe air which is not clean. There could be a lot of stranger things in our air, no? I am going to share with you my honest Cosmo Air Purifier review after using it for more than 30 days. Find out why Cosmo Air Purifier Malaysia is the best in its class for its price range.Cosmo Air Purifier Review-Cosmo Pro With 5-in-1 HEPA FilterLet's face it, when we are in public places, no matter how hard we try we can never control the air quality we are breathing in. That is why we need to wear face masks. However, we can ensure that our loved ones get to breathe clean, purified air once we are in the comfort of our homes.Contrary to popular beliefs, a reliable, high-quality air purifier can be affordable as well. You do not have to break the bank to breathe clean air. You do not need to be tied to the ridiculous 5-years monthly payments just to purchase a dependable air purifier. Cosmo air purifier can help you filter the air inside your house for a very relatively cheap price if you ask me.Cosmo Prime Air Purifier VS Cosmo Pro Air PurifierCosmo Air Purifier is competitively priced and there are two models for you to choose from: Cosmo Prime and Cosmo Pro. So which of these two air purifiers should you be purchasing? For starters,\u00a0 there are three distinct differences between them. Cosmo Prime Air Purifier comes with a 3-in-1 HEPA filter while the more advanced Cosmo Pro Air Purifier is equipped with a 5-in-1 HEPA filter.Cosmo Pro Air Purifier with 5-in-1 HEPA filter has additional Anti-Bac Shield Filter and Photocatalyst Filter that Cosmo Prime does not have. Apart from that, I will also recommend you get Cosmo Pro as it has a larger coverage area of 100m\u00b2\u00a0compared to Cosmo Prime's 80m\u00b2 coverage area.Cosmo Pro is fitted with a UVC lamp while Cos Prime does not have one. In terms of pricing after discounts, the Cosmo Pro (RM1,500) is only RM200 more expensive than the price of Cosmo Prime (RM1,299). So it is pretty clear who is the winner here but it all depends on your budget.1. Beautiful and Practical DesignDesigned in Germany, the Cosmo Pro Air Purifier sports a full 360\u00b0 aerodynamic built. Essentially, this design allows air from all directions to be purified. It is very rare that we can get an air purifier that does its air-purifying job well and is a looker at the same time. The Cosmo Pro Air Purifier looks really stunning in white and the top silver metallic finish makes it look even more classy.This combination of pure white and metallic silver gives it a sleek contemporary design. Hence it can blend into any corner of your house easily. You can place it in your living space, bedrooms or even dining area, and it will still look just as good.2. Protective 5-in-1 HEPA FiltersCosmo ensures that their Pro series air purifier is equipped with a state-of-the-art 5-in-1 HEPA filter. Rest assured that harmful tiny particles will be filtered and cleansed. Moreover, there are another extra two layers which serve as disinfectants to help you purify the air. Let's take a deep dive into the 5 different layers that will protect you and your whole family:1. Pre-filterThis is the first layer of defence against the larger particles such as dust, lint, hair and animal fur (cats and dogs). The pore size of this pre-filter is durable thanks to Cosmo's patent which allows it to maintain the pore size. Simply put, it will last longer and air filtration will be more efficient in the long run.2. Anti-Bacteria ShieldAs its name suggests, this layer will act as a shield against bacteria. Known as the Cosmo Anti-Bac Shield, this filter provides a clinical layer of filter that will inhibit the growth of any bacteria. Thanks to the anti-bacteria technology used, rest assured that your chance of getting an infection or developing allergic reactions will be dramatically reduced.3. Medical Grade H13+ HEPA FilterThe third layer of Cosmo's 5-in-1 filters is the medical-grade H13+ HEPA Filter. This filter has been specially created to capture and filter out almost all air pollutants of any size. The HEPA filter will block and eradicate any micron particles, dust mites, bacteria, pet dander and pollen just to name a few. In other words, this is a virtually impregnable fortress to help purify your air.4. Activated Carbon FilterWorried that the smelly odour from outside is seeping into your home? How about odours right within your four walls as well as formaldehyde which can be found in gas stoves, paints and even wooden products? Fret not as the activated carbon made from charcoal can absorb and neutralises all these contaminants to keep you safe and sound.5. Photocatalyst FilterIf you ask me, this Photocatcalyst Filter has got to be one of the coolest features of Cosmo Pro Air Purifier. So how does it work? The electrons generated by the filter will be killed and broken down via oxidation and electrostatic reactions. Eventually, any pollutants will be captured and eliminated by this photocatalyst filter. It is inevitable!3. Intelligent AI Sensor TechnologyA good air purifier without an equally brilliant Artificial Intelligence to complement it will merely be an ordinary machine at best. Equipped with an intelligent PM2.5 Sensor, the Cosmo Pro Air Purifier can detect air pollutants and capture them at an unbelievable rate of 99.7%.There is also an accompanying app from Cosmo to help you know the air in your house even better. After hooking up to your Internet (or WiFi), you will get to see how the quality of air inside your household compared to those outside. You can monitor the air quality inside your house in real-time. A comprehensive analysis of the air you breathe is now at your fingertips. How cool is that right?4. UVC DisinfectionBesides the revolutionary protective 5-in-1 HEPA Filters, Cosmo Pro Air Purifier is also installed with an impressive inner chamber UVC (Ultraviolet-C) lamp that can kill any microbes instantaneously. In other words, the UVC lamp will quickly disinfect your air to ensure you have a clean supply of air to breathe continuously.This powerful UVC lamp emits radiation that will cause irreparable damage to the DNA of harmful microorganisms, rendering them useless.

And if you drive around, you will agree that if your car is not tinted, it will be really hot inside your car. Recently I sent my car to be tinted at Perfect & Pro Tint which is arguably one of the best car tint near me in Melaka.Perfect & Pro Tint-The Best Car Tint Near Me in MelakaThis is my second time sending my car to have car window tinting. For my first car, it was a sedan with 6 windows in total. My second car being tinted is a 7-seater with 8 windows. I went to look for Perfect & Pro Tint again to help me tint all the windows for my car as I truly believe in their craftmanship and of course their high-quality car tint papers.Do You Need Car Tints For Your Vehicles?If you live in Malaysia or any other tropical country, the answer is yes. You must get your car windows tinted. Even if your car manufacturer claims that car tint is included, only the basic is provided. If you want extra protection against the harmful UV ray, IR rays and heat, you must get your car windows tinted. If you do not get adequate car tint, you will experience discomfort and sunburn while being \"baked\" inside your own car.What You Need To Know About Car TintFirst and foremost, you will need to know about your available budget and the type of car tint you want to be installed for your vehicle. More importantly, it boils down to how cool you want the inside of your car to be when you are driving around under the hot sun.The car tint specialists from Perfect & Pro Tint actually explained to me what I need to look out for when installing the tints for a car. There are two main things that they clarified in detail:VLT (Visible Light Transmission)-Indicates the amount of visible light that can enter the vehicle.TSER (Total Solar Energy Rejection)-This shows the amount of heat that a car window tint can block out. The heat that enters through our car windows consists of 44% visible light, 53% Infrared radiation (IR), and 3% Ultraviolet Rays (UV).I was shown several choices of car tints with different VLT and TSER. If you are a Malaysian, do remember to check with the JPJ what is the allowed VLT level. If your car tint is too \"dark\" you will be given a summon.[message]Don't be FOOLED by \"Dark Tint\"!Some irresponsible and dishonest car tint shops will sell you cheaper \"dark tint\", telling you that it can block out the heat effectively. The \"Dark Tint\" is merely the VLT (Visible Light Transmission). Just because the tint is dark does not mean it can block out the heat well. Always check the UVR and IRR as well before making any decision. Remember:\u00a0The higher % the UVR and IRR, the better!As for TSER, the higher the heat rejection capability, the better it is in blocking out infrared radiation and ultraviolet rays. The higher the TSER of the tint film, the higher the UVR and IRR percentage will be. Of course, higher TSER also means the car tint will be more expensive. However, I suggest that you go for the more expensive car tint to get a better TSER. After all, prolonged exposure to IR and UV is very unhealthy for us, especially for our skin and eyes.I have opted for the best and most expensive car tint the shop is offering with 55% VLT, 99% of Ultraviolet Radiation Rejection, and 97% Infrared Radiation Heat Rejection. So all 8 windows of my car will be fitted with these high-quality tint papers that can block out the bulk of the Infrared Radiation heat. The best part is, the tints will be getting 5 years of warranty. Once this had been decided, 3 car tint experts start to work on my car.The Car Tint I Have Chosen\u2705\ufe0f\u00a0Premium quality tint at an affordable price!\u2705\ufe0f 55% VLT (Visible Light Transmission)\u2705\ufe0f 99% UV R (Ultraviolet heat Rejection)\u2705\ufe0f 97% IR R (Infrared heat Rejection)\u2705\ufe0f Super cooling\u2705\ufe0f 5 Years warrantyHow Car Tints Are InstalledThe whole process of installing the window tints for my car took around 2 hours which was pretty fast. First and foremost, all the windows needed to be cleaned before attaching the car tints. From my observation, it was really, really difficult to install the tint papers or films for the windows. The actually needed to detach certain parts of my car just to install the tint films.I doubt I could even install the tint paper for one of my car windows without ruining it. Hence, I will never ever purchase any tint papers online from Shopee or Lazada to install them on my own. I will not be able to do it properly and will end up wasting even more money and time. Leave it to the pro when it comes to installing tints for your car.Thank you to the car tint experts: Mr Jacky, Mr Jerry & Mr GeraldWatching how the 3 car tint professionals went about installing the tint papers was quite mesmerising. They were so skilful that everything looked so easy and quick. They were really patient as they ensured that every inch of the windows have been properly covered by the car tint papers that I had selected.After 30 Days of Being Protected by Tinted WindowsI am glad that I have decided to get the best car tints from Perfect & Pro Tint. Although the 8 windows of my car are being fitted with premium quality car tint, the price is really affordable if you ask me. I have driven our car for 6 continuous hours of trip under the hot sun and it feels perfectly cooling inside.\u00a0For our Honda BRV is an SUV with 8 windows. I am glad that we had such an amazing car tint shop near me. With 55% VLT, 97% IR, 99% UV, and 5 years of warranty, we are certainly protected by the best tint available at an affordable price. The usual price is around RM2,599 but you can always ask for a discount. Hence, I would highly recommend Perfect & Pro Tint shop if you are in Melaka.Perfect & Pro Tint MelakaAddress: 25, Jalan MP16, Taman Merdeka Permai, 75350 Melaka.Facebook: www.facebook.com/perfect-pro-tint[Contact Jacky][Contact Jerry][Contact Gerald]"} {"title": "Huawei FreeBuds SE Review-Comfortable and Lightweight", "body": "Thanks to the prevalence of earbuds, we can now enjoy wireless music and entertainment without being tangled up. However, choosing an affordable pair of earbuds that can still deliver high-quality audio is an entirely different story. Introducing the new Huawei FreeBuds SE which aims to do exactly just that and more.Huawei FreeBuds SE ReviewJudging from my previous experience of using Huawei's smartphones, earphones, and Huawei Band 7, I expect Huawei FreeBuds SE to live up to its reputation as a Huawei product. So far, these new budget-friendly earbuds have been doing a pretty decent job to let me enjoy my daily music, podcasts, Netflix binge-watching during lunch break, and of course for my video calls as well as my Zoom sessions with colleagues. Simply put, these earbuds execute all the basic tasks pretty decently.5 Reasons Why I Love Huawei FreeBuds SE1. Fit ComfortablyUnlike other earbuds which will cause my ears to ache after prolonged use, Huawei FreeBuds SE is surprisingly comfortable. I believe this is due to its semi-in-ear design which has been engineered to the contours of my outer ears snuggly. In fact, I do not even feel any pressure on my ear canals. Sometimes, the FreeBuds are so lightweight that I don't even know they are stuck in my ears.Besides the design, I believe the silicon ear tips play a vital role as well to ensure the earbuds could be worn comfortably for a long period of time. You will have 3 different sizes of silicon tips and I am glad I could find the perfect ones for me. I am sure you can easily find your perfect fit too.2. Cyrstal Clear Audio QualityFor the price that it is offering, the audio quality of Huawei FreeBuds SE is really top-notch. You can enjoy crystal clear sound thanks to the combination of a 10mm dynamic driver plus an ultra-sensitive polymeric diaphragm. You can even pick up any subtle vibrations that provide the rich texture of audio for your ears.You can indulge in all your music sung by your favourite artists as a balanced tri-channel audio framework will emphasize their vocals. Hence, it feels like you are listening to your idols singing next to you.3. Noise Cancellation CallsIt will be irritating to hear noises when I am making a call. I am glad that my Google Meet sessions have been noise-free thanks to the dual-mic beamforming technology. I notice that when I hook up my Huawei FreeBuds SE during video-conferencing, I enjoy crystal clear calls.My colleagues mentioned that my voice is now clearer on my end. Apparently, the earbuds could differentiate my voice from the ambient sound around me quite accurately. I have tried making video calls in crowded places and the noise cancellation is still reliably good.4. Low LatencyIf you are a gamer like me, you might have suffered \"missing sounds\" or \"lagged audio\" due to latency. Huawei FreeBuds SE employs Bluetooth 5.2 technology which can significantly reduce latency. So far, I have yet to hear any sound going MIA while I am gaming or watching my favourite series on Netflix. 2 Thumbs up for sure for this!Watching Netflix quietly at midnight \ud83d\ude025. Battery Life of Up to 24 HoursThe whole package of Huawei FreeBuds SE has a rated battery life of 24 hours including the case. For music playback, the earbuds could last for 6 hours before needing a recharge. I have not really tried its limit for voice calls but the company claims that you can talk non-stop for 4 hours which I doubt many of us would, no?I have put the rated battery life to test and I could actually get 23 hours of combined \"juice\". So if you are a heavy user, most like you will only need to recharge your case once every 2 days, which is pretty decent.Should I Buy Huawei FreeBuds SE?All in all, I am really satisfied with the latest budget-friendly earbuds from Huawei. I love its lightweight design as well as its comfortable fitting. Practically, these hassle-free earbuds will excel in your gaming-playing, movie-watching and video-calling. It does all of its basic jobs perfectly. Available in 2 different colours white and Baby Blue, it will certainly give you the best bang for your money. With a price tag of only RM199, it is a steal if you ask me.

After all, we spend 30% of our time daily in bed, right? Hence, it makes perfect sense to hunt for the best mattress money can buy. After reading lots of positive Origin Mattress reviews and making tonnes of comparisons, I have decided that this is the mattress I want to get for my family.Origin Mattress Malaysia Review-After 30 Days of SleepBehold our brand new Origin Hybrid Mattress which we have truly enjoyed for the past 30 days. Yupe! We have really slept in this mattress for 1 month, and I dare say that this is one of the best mattresses that we have had. Even my wife and children agree that this is no doubt one of the most comfortable beds they have slept in. If you are wondering whether this is the mattress you should get, then do read this Origin Mattress review of mine.Let's Unbox Our Origin Hybrid MattressWait! What? A mattress in a box?As I have aforementioned, buying a new mattress is not an easy decision for any of us. In fact, it could be very costly if we end up with the wrong bed both financially and in terms of our health. It will be like sleeping with your enemy, literally! Our family had had our fair share of sleeping on a terrible mattress. Back then we had been robbed of a good night's sleep and at times waking up the next morning feeling restless. Worse comes to worst was when my wife and I suffered from back pain.From a Box To a Full-fledged Mattress!This mattress is magical! \ud83d\ude0eIt takes only 2 hours for the mattress to reach its full size. However, we waited for 24 hours just like what we have been recommended to do.Our Origin Mattress is Ready After 24 Hours!Moreover, as working adults, my wife and I could not risk losing our precious sleep. We do not want our boss to catch us red-handed dozing off in our cubicle, no? How to know when you have had a good night's sleep? A good mattress will let you feel reinvigorated and fresh the next morning. In other words, a good bed will boost your quality of sleep and you will not be suffering from any back pain regardless of your sleeping postures. The following are the main reasons why Origin Mattress is really one of the best beds we can get in Malaysia.13 Reasons Why You Should Buy Origin Hybrid Mattress1. Hybrid Mattress-The Best of The BestKnowing that not one single material is superior to the others, the designers and engineers at Origin have combined the different materials to create the perfect mattress for us. Thanks to the combination of memory foam, latex, and springs, we now get to enjoy cosy premium sleep. As the saying goes, \"Nothing worthwhile comes easily\" and the same can be said about Origin's Hybrid technology.To make the perfect bed, the designers and engineers have spent countless hours conducting extensive research to get the perfect \"recipe\" for that ideal mattress. After experimenting with more than 10 different mattresses, over 100 staggering density alterations, and of course, thousands of sleep trials, the holy grail of the perfect mattress has been discovered. Behold the Origin Hybrid Mattress with the 3 amazing luxurious layers for the most comfortable sleep. Let's take a deep dive into the engineering of this mattress, shall we?2. A Total of 6 Layers of Premium ComfortFor the uninitiated, the Origin Hybrid Mattress is made from 6 different layers to give you maximum comfort for your sleep. Let's find out what are the technology inside this 10-inch mattress could give you that ultra-comfortable sleep:Origin Airflow TencelNatural Latex Layer:\u00a0Origin Cooling Gel Ventilated Memory FoamOrigin Reflex Support LayerVanadium Calico Encased Pocket SpringsEdge Guard Design (for corners) \u2013 this innovative technology prevents the edges from suffering dipping and slipping like other mattresses.3. Origin Airflow Tencel Cover LayerKnowing that the \"magic\" that is happening inside the mattress alone is not enough, Origin has gone one step further to give us the complete package via its Airflow Tencel Cover Layer. This unique premium top layer is actually made of hypoallergenic materials. So this is definitely a boon for those with sensitive skin. On top of that, it is super soft and boasts unbelievable breathability.In other words, you will feel like you are always sleeping on a layer of cooling air thanks to Origin Airflow Tencel Cover Layer. I could personally vouch for this as I no longer wake up with a sweaty back even though the air-conditioner is not turned on. The top-most layer really helps to promote airflow throughout our mattress and as a result, keeps the temperature low.4. Hypercool\u2122\u00a0Cooling Technology Memory FoamNo matter how comfortably soft and plushy a mattress is, it is essentially useless if you feel that the back of your body is being \"suffocated\", no? Besides the presence of Origin Airflow Tencel Cover Layer, this mattress is also incredibly cooling thanks to Origin's Cooling Gel Ventilated Memory Foam.Memory foam found in other mattresses is usually the open-cell memory foam. This does little to no help at all in cooling you while you are asleep. On the other hand, Origin's Hypercool\u2122\u00a0Cooling Technology Memory Foam is infused with a layer of special gel with excellent heat dissipation capability. Rest assured that you will be getting a cooling, restful sleep throughout the night.5. Individual Vanadium Calico Encased Pocket SpringsAt the heart of Origin Hybrid Mattress is its Vanadium Calico Encased Pocket Springs. Thanks to these micro pocket springs, you will be able to enjoy a true orthopaedic sleeping experience. Each of these premium pocket springs works individually to correctly and comfortably support your body while you are sleeping.The thousands of pocket springs help prevent any unwanted \"roll-together\" effects to ensure that each person who shares the bed gets to enjoy high-quality sleep. Therefore, you will be getting more personalised support and an ultra-comfortable sleeping experience. On top of that, these highly breathable Vanadium Calico Encased Pocket Springs will also promote a cooling, pleasurable sleep.6. Reflex Support Layer for Pain-relief Sleep ExperienceBy the time we are going to bed each night, most of us are terribly exhausted and drained. Hours of working, sitting and standing would have taken its toll on our bodies especially our back, right? If you are suffering from back pain or muscle aches, you will love this Origin Hybrid Mattress for its reflex support layer.Thanks to the combination of premium natural latest and high-rebound open-cell foam, the Reflex Support Layer will provide your body with that extra support for a snuggly sleep. The dedicated layer will ensure that you get nothing but the best pain-relief sleeping experience. Now I feel more rejuvenated after waking up every morning. No more lingering muscle pain and backache in the morning!7. Zero Motion Transfer TechnologyI truly appreciate my Origin Hybrid Mattress thanks to this amazing Zero Motion Transfer Technology. Previously, whenever I wanted to wake up in the middle of the night to answer nature's call, I had to think twice. A slight movement from me would wake my wife up no thanks to our mattress. I feel bad for causing my wife to be deprived of her deep, restful sleep.Look! Nothing is spilled!Now I can wake up any time of the night without alarming my wife thanks to the God-sent Zero Motion Transfer Technology. I do not have to be worried about waking up my wife when I get in or out of the bed anymore. All of this is possible thanks to the pocket springs, memory foam and latex which could effectively isolate and absorb kinetic energy when someone moves on the mattress. My wife says she does not even know when I am out of bed to play games. LOL \ud83d\ude02With this new hybrid mattress of ours, my wife can enjoy deep, peaceful, uninterrupted sleep every single night. Now every morning, my wife looks even more radiant and happy thanks to the high-quality sleep she is getting. As Robert A. Heinlein said, \"Happiness consists in getting enough sleep. Just that. Nothing more!\" Obviously, you will be getting more than enough sleep with Origin Hybrid Mattress and even more happiness.8.

Designed to be equipped with hypoallergenic properties, this Origin Hybrid Mattress is not only bed bug and dust mite resistant, but it also has resistance against bacteria, viruses and fungi.So now you can sleep with complete peace of mind, knowing that you are not sharing your mattress with harmful microorganisms that will be detrimental to your health.

In fact, they will not even charge you when you return the mattress. This speaks volumes of the confidence that Origin Malaysia has in their exceptional mattress!10.

That's a steal if you ask me! I would go as far as to say it is really cheap. You can even enjoy up to 12 months of zero-interest instalment plan!

Now more than ever, we know that the air we breathe is very important to our well-being, health and even our very survival. That is why I believe the Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde review I will be sharing is vital to help us to be more aware of the quality of air around us, especially when we are in the comfort of our homes.Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde ReviewIf previously we Malaysians only need to be worried about the nagging haze and open burning, we now face an even more hazardous problem in our air-Covid-19 virus. This notorious virus will wreak on our life, and if worse comes to worst, we could end up dying. It is an irony that the air we breathe in could be fatal to our life! This is where Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde comes into the picture.Let's Unbox Our New Dyson Air PurifierBehold our new gleaming white golden Dyson Purifier Cool FormaldehydeAs the saying goes, \"Your home is your castle!\" Hence, it is supposed to be the most comfortable and safest place for us and our beloved family members to be. Imagine if you were to return home and your clothes might have been stained with some harmful airborne virus or bacteria; If you do not have an air purifier to cleanse the dirty air you have brought home, then you are putting everyone in your family at grave risk. What if the virus you brought home caused someone to die *touch wood*?Capture Dust, Allergens and 99.9% of VirusesHow good is this Dyson Air Purifier in purifying your air? For the record, its HEPA H13 filter can capture 99.95% of particles as small as 0.1 microns. On top of that, its 360-degree omnidirectional filter ensures that nothing can escape from being filtered.\u00a0 So bye-bye to airborne viruses or anything that is detrimental to our health. The presence of a layer of activated carbon will also effectively remove odours and gases which include VOCs (Volatile Organic Compound) such as dicholobenzene, ethanol and acetone just to name a few. Now you don't have to be worried about anything tagging you along to enter your home.Remove Cancer-causing Formaldehyde ContinuouslyPerhaps you are not aware of it but Formaldehyde is one of the most common VOCs that is found inside our household. Formaldehyde is cancer-causing and you will be surprised to know that it is already living amongst us. This carcinogenic gas comes from manufactured wood products such as your brand new furniture (sofa sets, divans and bed frames, laminate flooring, etc), fabrics (bedsheets etc), and household products in the forms of glues, dishwashing liquids and fabric softeners just to name a few. That's shocking, no?Formaldehyde is an odourless and colourless gas which lurks insidiously around us. The main way we are exposed to this harmful gas is by inhaling it. Hence, it makes perfect sense that we need to purify the air inside our house. Introducing Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde which will continuously trap and breaks down formaldehyde molecules into water and carbon dioxide, rendering it harmless.Formaldehyde-removing Filter Lasts a LifetimeThe Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde uses a solid-state sensor to detect formaldehyde molecules \u2013 500 times smaller than 0.1 microns. Then the dedicated formaldehyde-removing filter, known as the Selective Catalytic Oxidation (SCO) filter, will specifically target formaldehyde and destroy it at the molecular level. Unlike other air purifiers, the SCO filter used by Dyson can last permanently to remove Formaldehyde without ever needing a replacement! That's very impressive if you ask me.Purifying The Air in Your Whole Huge RoomNo disrespect to any other air purifier brands, however, most of them could only purify the immediate air around the machine or at best a small room. Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde on the other hand could purify all the air in a huge 81m3\u00a0(5.2m x 5.2m x3m) room. To put that into perspective, the room will come with 5.2 metres of length, 5.2 metres of width and a height of 3 metres. You could easily fit 6 queen-size beds in that 81m3\u00a0room with walking space to spare! So that's really huge and roomy (no pun intended)!Thanks to its amazing Air Multiplier Technology, the air inside an enormous room as big as the aforementioned one can be purified. The air in the room will be circulated to draw any pollutants into the Dyson Air Purifier. No allergens, pollutants or viruses can hide in the \"far sides\" of the room. Then purified air will be projected throughout the whole room, providing us with clean air to breathe in, especially when we are sleeping and resting. This has been rigorously tested and proven to ensure that we really get clean, purified air no matter where we are in the room.Sleek, Sexy Timeless DesignI thought my previous Nickel Black Dyson Air Purifier was already darn beautiful! How wrong was I! This new Golden White Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde is definitely one of the most beautiful air purifiers I have seen so far. In glossy white and beaming gold colours, this combination really exudes so much class and opulence. Its presence will definitely elevate any room it is in be it your living room, bedroom, or study room just to name a few. Who says an air purifier cannot be beautiful, right? I dare you to show me a better-looking air purifier.Real-time Monitoring LCDHow do you know if your air purifier is really filtering the air around you? That's when you need an integrated screen to show you the necessary information that you need. The built-in sensors will continuously analyse the quality of your air and display the accurate readings live on the LCD. So you will get to know what the air you are breathing in better. What can you see on the LCD display?Live air qualityAir Quality in the past 24 hoursPM 2.5 (Particulate Matter\u00a02.5 micrometre and smaller)PM 10 (Particulate Matter 10 micrometres and smaller)HCHO (Formaldehyde)VOC (Volatile Organic Compound)NO2\u00a0(Nitrogen Dioxide)TemperatureHumidityFan speed (1-10)Filter sustainability levelOscillation Mode (45\u00b0, 90\u00b0, 180\u00b0, 350\u00b0 or none)Cooling or Diffusing ModeNight ModeBesides understanding more about the air quality around us, we can also know the temperature and the humidity level and even the sustainability of the filters that we are using. Moreover, the LCD display also serves as a screen for us to control our Dyson air purifier. Together with the included remote control, you can easily see the changes made to the fan speed level, the oscillation modes, switching from cooling to diffusing and vice versa as well as activating silent mode for night sleepers. I love how intuitive and informative the LCD is.Fully Sealed HEPA H13 Air PurifierDo you know this latest Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde meets the distinguished HEPA H13 standard? It is not just the filters, but the whole machine is now HEPA H13-certified. This is definitely a huge upgrade compared to the previous model. Meaning whatever allergens, pollutants or viruses go in will stay inside the Dyson Air Purifier permanently. You do not want your air purifier to be leaking the supposedly trapped harmful pollutants, right?Cooling You With 350\u00b0 of OscillationIn Malaysia, the sweltering weather can be unbearable at times. Luckily, we get to enjoy cooling purified air that can be projected around the room thanks to its different oscillation modes of up to\u00a0350\u00b0. Be it 45\u00b0, 90\u00b0, 180\u00b0, 350\u00b0 or none, enjoy your cooling, purified air from Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde the way you want it. You can also opt to only divert airflow through the back of the air purifier without the cooling air via the Diffused Mode.Magnetised Golden Remote ControlIf you have had a Dyson Air Purifier before, you would have known that its remote is one of the coolest things about it. I love how gorgeous our Golden remote is this time around. It still retains its curvy shape and of course, it is magnetised to help you secure it on top of the air purifier. I love how thoughtful this design is and that means you will not be misplacing this remote too often. Not when it is magnetised and is golden in colour!Dyson Link App ControlDo you know that you can also control your Dyson Air Purifier just by using the Dyson Link App? You can easily monitor the air quality from virtually anywhere even if you are not at home. Having said so, this app can also replace your remote control to do virtually everything. In other words, it is a carbon copy of your magnetised golden remote control. The best part is, that anyone if your household can install this app. So you will have multiple \"remote controls\" at your disposal. So that means I can purify the air inside my house even before I am home.Night Mode + 20% QuieterThere is also Night Mode should you want to place this in your bedroom. When this mode is activated, the air purifier will be switched to the quietest settings as well as dimming the LCD display to let you have a more restful sleep. Dyson's engineers have also made this latest version of air purifier to be 20% quieter compared to its predecessor, so you will not even notice while it is busy purifying the air around you.Watch Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde Quick ReviewVERDICT: Should I Get Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde?Frankly speaking, the Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde is definitely one of the best air purifiers in its class. Its ability to purify your air and get rid of 99.95% of allergens, pollutants and viruses is second to none. When you take into account all the cutting-edge technology (LCD, HEPA 13 filters, App control etc.), you cannot deny that it is one of the leading premium air purifiers. With extra attention given to the cancer-causing formaldehyde, this is the air purifier that every family needs. In fact, I honestly feel that it is worth its weight in good for its relatively affordable price tag of RM3,299. For more information, head over to Dyson's official website.Protect Your Family and Let Them Breathe In Fresh, Purified Air!Each Dyson Air Purifier Cool Formaldehyde comes with 2 years of warranty.

This is another piece of tech that just blew my mind away. And I believe a lot of people out there don't really know it well either. Usually, when we say tech and gadget, we think of smartphones, computers, pads, or even a Smart TV. But a Smart PROJECTOR is totally another cave that we really don't seem to explore much. But it deserves a heads up too! With that being said, today we will look at this amazing smart projector - INLAB Senz Projector.Why INLAB Senz?You might not understand why now. Don\u2019t worry, me either, I was confused about why I need a projector when I can have a TV. But until I met the INLAB Senz Projector, everything I had in my mind changed. Rest assured, if you follow along and read until the end, everything will make \u201cSenz\u201d.But before that, I will need to show you what exactly INLAB Senz is. So you could understand better.The INLAB SenzINLAB Senz Projector is a smart LED projector that comes with Android OS. It is much more convenient than a typical projector that you usually hear or see from classrooms, lecture halls, grand halls, meeting rooms and so on.Let\u2019s look at the physical build first, shall we? No doubt, INLAB Senz looks perfectly minimal and nice. I am already in love at first glance. Not only that, the build quality is robust and it is almost impossible to break the INLAB Senz case even though it is made out of plastic. The hard plastic does not bring down the premiumness, as it has no plasticky feels at all.Furthermore, thanks to the minimal design on the INLAB Senz, it looks just nice on any kind of setup, and easily matches around. The gigantic focusing knob with a power button is the hella signature of INLAB Senz, which is super recognizable and unique. Most importantly, INLAB Senz is much more compact compared to a Smart TV. I thought a home cinema projector is supposed to be a giant power eater. But I am wrong! By looking at the photo it just took 1/10 of my desk space.What makes INLAB Senz so special?Unlike a TV, INLAB Senz just needs a minute or two to complete the setting and start enjoying it. As simple as that. Step 1 to step 5 provided in the user manual is super handy, and everyone is able to do it without any hassle.How To Set Up Inlab Senz ProjectorStep 1: Get your distance correct.Step 2: Get your focus right.Step 3: Get your keystone right.Step 4: Open your favorite app.Step 5: EnjoyJust like a Smart TV, INLAB Senz projects natively 1080P (but supports up to 4K) videos/images with no problem at all. The sharpness, brightness and clarity of the projector are completely insane on this small little beast. And it consumed less power compared to a TV.With INLAB Senz, it brings your cinema experience to the next level while maintaining your comfort to the max. Why? You asked. Try to imagine that you\u2019re bringing the same GSC/TGV cinema experience back to your home. Yes, you hear me right, INLAB Senz can optimally project out 100-120 inches of the screen, do you know how big that is? And how much will it cost to own a 100 inches TV? Let me tell you, it ranges from RM10K to RM100K, depending on the brand. CRAZY, right?Guess what? With the Android OS built-in, I can now access all the well-known TV applications with a tap of a button. All the applications like YouTube, Netflix, Disney Hotstar+, IQIYI and 100+ more applications can be installed from the Play Store Application.Pre-installed Apps For Inlab Senz ProjectorSounds Very Troublesome?You might think of the inconvenience of connectivity a projector has. No worries, INLAB Senz provides a huge variety of connectivity both wired and wireless. Users can still connect to their own source with ease. With ease, I am saying for example:HDMI that works with laptop/PC, TV Stick, PlayStation console, and Nintendo Switch console;USB that works with, pendrive, portable harddrive, external harddisk;3.5MM headphone jack that works with earphones, headphones, and external speakers;Wireless mirroring that works with both iOS and Android OS smartphones;Bluetooth that works with external wireless earphones, headphones, and external speakers wirelessly.Often people hear that Projector's performance will be instantly killed by the bright lighting condition. But INLAB Senz is totally a game-changer. It has 7000 Lumens which could easily overkill all lighting conditions that normal users usually have.Dim:Full dark:That's it?No! INLAB Senz not only has a crisp image but also has a TRI-Speaker that is a Dolby Atmos-certified sound system. Clear high & trebles, beautiful mid, and low & deep base. Cool, right? Amazing projection and a super damn good speaker built into the projector. Such an invincible combination, what else do you need? Apa lagi you mau?What\u2019s more, INLAB Senz has electronic focusing and keystones that can be either adjusted from the remote or the big knob. The focusing works smooth like butter, with no weird or chopping mechanism sound while adjusting. I really appreciate the stepping tactile feedback from the rotation of the knob, so I can easily know when I should go fast and when I should go slow. And with that, I can stop at the focus range I want without going anywhere.ConclusionLast but not least, the price. As mentioned, a 100 inches TV ranges from RM10K - RM100K. Even a usual 45-inch Smart TV already costs around RM2K plus-minus. What if I tell you that INLAB Senz can be optimal from 100-120 inches but will only cost you RM1199 (PROMO) including shipping.Watch Inlab Senz Projector in ActionHence, I think the answer is pretty noticeable now. With all the above incredible features that INLAB Senz provided, it is hard to say no, right? Unless you\u2019re nuts! For more information, head over to Inlab's official website.

After all, our whole family has been a big fan of Netflix, watching at least several hours of shows every day. So we are now officially part of the Netflix Stream Team Malaysia! I cannot tell you how ecstatic my family and I are especially Jordan boy and Jasmine girl. Actually, I am the most excited one! LOL \ud83d\ude01We Are Part of The Netflix Stream Team MalaysiaLike I have aforementioned, I have subscribed to Netflix the day it arrived in Malaysia 3 years ago back in 2019! There are 4 different plans and I have immediately subscribed to the top-tier Netflix Premium Plan for only RM55 per month which allows streaming on 4 devices simultaneously. Since then I have never looked back and I must say that it is the best, must-have monthly subscription that I will never cancel! It is money well-spent if you ask me!So what is Netflix Stream Team about? Basically, we will be Netflix's ambassadors sharing the latest, and exciting releases that you can enjoy on Netflix. Since we are now part of the Netflix Stream Team as a family, we will also be the advocates for Netflix Kids and Family content. There is no denying that Netflix is a virtual treasure chest for countless dramas, animes, movies and documentaries just to name a few. Then again, parents can be in total control of what their children watch.Parents are in ControlAs parents ourselves, we are happy that Netflix is constantly improving their already excellent streaming services to curate content that are family-friendly. I love how each of the shows, series and movies have been carefully rated in terms of suitability and maturity. Netflix will even state and explain why that particular dramas or movies have been given such ratings. On top of that, Netflix also provides parents with the essential tools in terms of controls, profile settings and filters to make sure their little ones or teens only watch content that will be suitable for them.Netflix's 4 Parental Control Tools and Settings1. Create a Netflix Kids ProfileParents! Do you know that you can effortlessly control your child's safety and access to any content of Netflix? All you have to do is create a Netflix Kids profile. When your little ones are \"logged into\" the Kids profile, they do not have any direct access to account settings. Thanks to the intuitive, simpler look and feel, kids can immediately enjoy fun, suitable content with a default maturity setting of 7+. In other words, in this Kids profile, they can only play shows and movies that have been carefully selected for them to watch.2. Customize Profile Maturity RatingsThis is a powerful feature that I love about Netflix. Do you know that you can actually adjust the maturity ratings in the profile that your children or even teenagers are watching? As your children grow, their maturity, beliefs, tolerance and preferences will change as well. Hence, you can easily customize the profile maturity ratings to allow your children to enjoy shows, movies and even games that fit their respective age groups such as 13+ and 16+.3. Block Specific TV Shows or MoviesApart from adjusting the maturity settings to filter suitable shows and movies for your children and teenagers, you can also directly block specific tv shows and movies from the Kid's profile. Yupe! If you deem certain shows and movies to be unsuitable for your children or teenagers to view, you can block those shows or movies. There you can easily block contents that contain elements that are against your beliefs or culture or for whatever reasons you think is justifiable.4. Set Profile and Account LockYes! You can set a profile lock which is a 4-digit pin that will prevent your kids or teenagers (or others) from accessing a specific account profile. When this has been activated, a new profile cannon be added as well. I believe this is a very powerful feature as it gives parents total control of what their little ones or older teenagers watch. So you do not have to be worried even when you are not by your children's side when they are enjoying their Netflix shows. Total peace of mind aye?What Is Netflix Stream Team?Besides being an advocate to help share updates about Netflix's latest series and movies, we can also enjoy certain privileges and perks. For starters, we got to enjoy The Adam Project's exclusive advanced virtual screening before the movie premiered officially. It's like we could have a sneak peek before others do. Moreover, we were also surprised with a few gifts from Netflix Malaysia for The Adam Project movie screening.Our Special The Adam Project Package from \"2050\" includes:Buttery Popcorn: OMG!

Jordan boy and Jasmine girl love their card games as they can instantaneously identify their favourite cartoon characters on Netflix. We are really happy to receive these gifts for being a part of the Netflix Stream Team!

For the uninitiated, abalones are the must-have premium delicacies during the lunar new year besides the white pomfret fish. We have always had abalones during our most celebrated festival but not one which is this huge and of course expensive.Calmex Abalone Review-The Most Expensive Abalone I Have EatenApparently, the Calmex Abalone we had sampled is harvested fresh from Mexico and canned by Ocean Garden Products which has been in this business for the past 50 years. It is understood that Calmex Abalones are wild abalones and only the finest will be chosen. It has been regarded as one of the best abalones in the world thanks to its distinctive strong flavour, famous tasty texture, and of course, its crazy, huge size. Are you curious to find out why it is regarded as one of the most expensive abalones in the world? Read on to find out.Why is Calmex Abalone So Expensive?My family and I have enjoyed abalones on a regular basis as they are becoming increasingly affordable. The common canned abalone prices that you can find in supermarkets can range from RM20 to RM120. You can even get one single abalone as cheap as RM5 in hypermarkets like Lotus's during the Chinese New Year. So why is Calmex Abalone so expensive?Look at its HUGE size!For starters, Calmex Abalone is so damn freaking expensive thanks to its HUGE size. The one we had eaten was not only thick and big but also had a whopping nett weight of 454 grams (16 oz) which is crazy enormous. As you can see from my photo, this Calmex Abalone is almost as big as my palm and definitely bigger than my clenched fist. Yes! So in our pink can of Calmex Abalone, there is only one gigantic abalone inside of it.Almost as big as my palm!Apart from that, Calmex Abalone is expensive as only the best wild abalone of the required size will be harvested. The species of wild abalone chosen is the yellowish pink abalone which is scientifically known as Haliotis Corrugata. Since all Calmex Abalones are hand-harvested from the wild instead of being farmed, their quantities are really limited and that is why each can will cost you a lot of money. Then again, I assure you that you will be enjoying the finest, premium abalone so it is worth every single penny spent.How To Identify Authentic Calmex AbaloneBuying Calmex Abalone to be enjoyed with family members is very costly no thanks to its expensive price tag. Our Calmex Mexican Abalone is sold at an eye-watering price of RM799 (US$199). So how can we ensure that this wild Mexican abalone that we purchase is original? In other words, how can we identify an authentic Calmex Abalone so that we will not be cheated? You do not want your so-called most expensive abalone to turn out to be fake, no?Yes! This is authentic Calmex Abalone alright!The authenticity of the Calmex Abalone can be verified by looking at its iconic pink lithographed can. The lithographed top of the can is also embossed with the name \"CAL MEX\" from the inside. Moreover, the top of the can is also printed with the legend \"Ocean Garden Products Inc\" and Abalone Product of Mexico\" inside the red ship wheel design. By checking these features, you can minimize the risk of buying a counterfeit Calmex Abalone.Do You Still Need To Cook Canned Calmex Abalone?The answer is no. You do not need to cook your canned Calmex Abalone. Out of the can, the abalone can already be served as it has been cooked. So you can eat it straight from the can. Of course, we chose to reheat it so that it tasted better. Besides the abalone, there is also some soup of water and salt that you can use as you cooking broth or as a sauce.Ready-to-eat abalone out of the can!Rest assured that the Mexican Calmex Abalone has been cleaned, bled and had its gut trimmed before being cooked and canned. Hence, the moment I opened the can I was really happy to see the huge, \"golden\" abalone waiting to be served. It was quite a sight to behold as we have never ever seen such a huge abalone in our life before.How to Eat Calmex AbaloneAs Calmex Abalone is ready to be served and eaten, you can enjoy it straight from the can but it will taste even better with your other dishes and of course, rice. Though no cooking is needed, it is highly suggested that you reheat your Calmex Abalone to maintain its tenderness and taste. You can also simply reheat the abalone together with its soup by using a microwave. Voila! Your huge, most expensive abalone is ready to be eaten.I am ready to slice up this huge abalone!After reheating our abalone, we decided to slice it into thin slices and mix them together with our other dishes. We got at least 20 slices at least which is a lot. We then mixed our slices of Calmex Abalone together with broccoli together with lots of delicious shiitake mushrooms. Finally, the soup from the can which had been seasoned was used as a garnish to complete our serving abalone.Calmex Abalone ReviewShould you be paying RM799 or US$200 just for a can of Calmex Abalone? The answer is a resounding yes if you can afford to. Honestly speaking, I have never eaten such a delicious abalone before in my life before. Tipping the scale at\u00a0454 grams (16 oz), this huge wild Mexican abalone is really worth its weight in gold. After all, it is the most expensive abalone I have ever tried in my entire life.I am not trying to exaggerate but this premium Calmex Abalone was ridiculously delicious. It was tender, juicy and flavoursome. Once you have tried it, you will always remember its unforgettable taste and texture. Similar to scallop and squid, it was lusciously delectable thanks to its exquisitely distinct and unique flavour. Now I know why a lot of people are willing to fork out a lot of money for this huge abalone.It is time to enjoy our RM799 (US$200) expensive abalone!We really could not get enough of its appetizing buttery and rich salty taste. Its perfect chewiness texture also hits the right spot, making it so irresistible. Thanks to its large size, our sliced Calmex Abalone still tasted like a scrumptious steak. Amazingly, this abalone was really fresh for a canned abalone. After all, only the finest and premium quality wild abalone will be hand-harvested by divers at the bottom of the seabed. So I am giving a full 5-star rating for Calmex Abalone and I really hope I get to enjoy this every Chinese New Year.

Make sure to read this review to know if you should order the dim sum served here. So after trying the delicious food at Pik Nik Penang, The Canteen at Chinahouse and Ice Cafe Penang, our expectations were really high for our very first dim sum restaurant. Gladly, we were not disappointed.Restoran Zim Sum at Jalan Macalister PenangYou have to be early for sure!For the uninitiated, Dim Sum which means 'touch the heart' in mandarin language, is a large range of small Chinese dishes and snacks. Served in small plates or bowls, dim sum is usually enjoyed in the morning with some restaurants opening their business as early as 6:00a.m. So if you want to enjoy fresh, piping hot dim sum, you will need to wake up early.The Best Dim Sum Restaurant In PenangHuge, spacious and open-airAfter doing extensive research and reading several reviews, my wife and I had decided that Restoren Zim Sum at Jalan Macalister would be the best place for us to enjoy our dim sum. There were lots of raving reviews and recommendations on Google as well as Facebook, telling us that this is the best place to have dim sum in Penang. Apparently, this dim sum restaurant is very famous with the locals and foreign tourists alike.Always Order Your Tea First Before Enjoying Your Dim SumWe were glad that we left our hotel early that morning. Otherwise, we had to join the others to make a beeline to have dim sum as breakfast. I personally love Restoren Zim Sum as the restaurant is really huge, spacious, clean and the best part is its open-air concept. All the tables have had ample distances which of course gave us peace of mind while we were dining in to enjoy our traditional oriental breakfast.Restoren Zim Sum Menu-What Dim Sum To Eat?You will be spoilt for choices!After being seated, a waitress came and asked us what we wanted to have for our beverages. So rule number 1 when you are at a dim sum restaurant would be to order tea. We got ourselves a pot of Pu\u2019er tea (\u666e\u6d31\u8336) which would be ideal to help us stuff even more dim sum down our throat. LOL \ud83d\ude0b Soon, another waitress pushed a trolley with layers of bamboo steamers filled with countless dim sum for you to choose from. I don't recall seeing any menu, so what you see is what you get. You can of course go to the self-service counters to grab even more dim sum to gratify your hunger pangs.Dim Sum-Traditional Chinese Food!Let's dig in!At the self-service counters, I really had a hard time deciding what to eat, literally. I was really amazed at the unbelievably wide selection of dim sum available at Restoren Zim Sum. I wish I could try them all but unfortunately, the limited storage size of my stomach said otherwise. Eventually, the traditional dim sum together with some children-favourite were handpicked by me. Let's find out what we had indulged in, shall we?Some of the Dim Sum We Had OrderedWhich one do you want?No dim-sum breakfast will ever be complete if you do not have Har Gow or Xia Jiao (\u867e\u997a) to begin with. We loved our shrimp dumplings which contained fresh, springy shrimp and some pork lard, wrapped in a delicate rice flour skin. Some claim that the quality and taste of Har Gow define a dim sum restaurant and the ones that we had could clearly vouch for Restoren Zim Sum. So do you usually order these must-have shrimp dumplings when you go to any dim sum restaurant?Har Gow or Xia Jiao (\u867e\u997a) - Shrimp DumplingsSiu Mai (\u70e7\u5356) - Pork DumplingsThe two must-have dim sum!Up next was of course the iconic Siu Mai (\u70e7\u5356), also known as pork dumplings. Our Siu Mai pork dumplings were really addictive thanks to the juicy minced pork which was really flavourful. Savour it with a dollop of fragrant chilli sauce and your taste buds will be dancing to the bursting of flavours in your mouth-Speaking of which, did you know there is a dedicated station for condiments and sauces in this restaurant? Mix-an-match the condiments and sauces with your dim sum and you will be on an unforgettable gastronomic adventure.Various Condiments and Sauces For Your Dim SumMix and match your sauces and condiments!Our Jordan boy and Jasmine girl could not get enough of their deep-fried dumplings. They really enjoyed their scrumptious shrimp and pork dumplings which were crazy crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. We also had steamed sausage rolls, steamed stuffed tofu skin rolls, egg tarts and fried radish cake (\u83dc\u5934\u7cbf). The egg tarts with flaky pastry crust, brimming with creamy egg custards really swept our kids off their feet. I had a bite and it was really good.Heavenly Deep-fried Dim SumWho can resist the temptations of the deep-fried wonders!Our plate of fried radish cake (\u83dc\u5934\u7cbf) was equally appetizing thanks to its fragrant wok scent and slices of my favourite lap cheong (\u814a\u80a0) also known as Chinese Sausage. However, the best dim sum I had at Restoren Zim Sum was the irresistible minced pork balls wrapped with bacon strips. The combination of the savoury broth together with the tender bacon as well as the luscious minced pork inside, made me crown this dim sum dish as the Kin! It was so ridiculously delectable that I actually went hunting for another plate but of course, there was none left.Steamed Sausage RollsSteamed Stuffed Tofu Skin RollsCreamy Egg TartsFried Radish Cake\u00a0(\u83dc\u5934\u7cbf)Bacon Pork BallsThe best dim sum I had! \ud83e\udd24All in all, my wife, both my children and I had a great dim sum feast at this restaurant.

We all know that wines are very beneficial for our health. However, no thanks to the alcohol content inside the conventional wines, you have to limit your consumption as drinking too much alcohol can be really detrimental. So if you can choose to drink wines without alcohol, why not right? Let's find out the benefits of drinking non-alcoholic wines:Benefits of Non-alcoholic Wines in Malaysia7 Benefits of Drinking Non-alcoholic Wines1. Prevent myocardial infarction and cerebrovascular diseaseRed wine can increase the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the blood, and the role of HDL is to transport cholesterol from extrahepatic tissues to the liver for metabolism, so it can effectively reduce blood cholesterol and prevent atherosclerosis. Not only that, but the polyphenols in red wine can also inhibit platelet aggregation and prevent thrombosis.2. Reduce the risk of cancerAccording to a report in the 2008 American Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers \uff06 Prevention, which study on the relationship between smoking, drinking, and cancer in 8,470 men aged between 45 to 69, that focus on red wine, white wine, and liquor. The study shows that men who smoked had a 60% lower risk of lung cancer if they drank a glass of red wine a day, compared to smokers who don\u2019t drink. The expert in charge of the research, Mr. Chun Chao pointed out that it is not alcohol that can prevent cancer but is actually red wine's unique ingredients, such as resveratrol or flavonoids, that can help fight lung cancer. In addition, more studies have shown that wine can prevent breast cancer, cancer, and other diseases.3. Anti-agingRed wine contains antioxidants, such as compounds, acids, flavan, vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, zinc, manganese, etc., which can eliminate or resist oxygen free radicals, which has the effect of anti-aging. So the more wines that you drink, the younger you will get. \ud83d\ude014. Reduce the risk of osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritisTwo doctors from the University of California (Drs. Hol Brook & aCoor) conducted a study on 450 people over 8 years old. People who drink wine moderately have higher bone density than people who do not drink alcohol. Another American doctor, Dr. Linda Voigt has conducted a study on a group of women aged between 8 to 64, found that drinking 2 glasses of wine a day reduces the risk of rheumatoid arthritis by 50%.5. Reduce the risk of leg artery diseaseResearchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in the United States have followed up 5635 volunteers for 7 and a half years and found that people who drink alcohol 1 to 13 times a week have a lower risk of developing leg artery disease in old age than people who do not drink. According to 4 studies, as people age, the arteries and blood vessels will gradually harden, which will affect the blood circulation of the legs and feet, causing leg pain, burning, cold hands and feet, and skin color, etc., and occasional drinking can improve these conditions.6. Beauty care and weight lossOne of the top beauty secrets of well-known actress Fan Bing bing's is drinking soups and red wine. There is no doubt that drinking red wine helps in maintaining beauty. There is also a kind of red wine soup with papaya that helps in bust enhancement, without any side effects. In fact, since ancient times, red wine has been recognized as a beauty product. Some say that French women's skin is soft, moisturized and elastic, due to drinking red wine. Red wine can prevent aging, and enhance skin growth. In addition, the antioxidant in wine is also very helpful for the recovery of postpartum women's bodies (but after stop lactating).Do you know there is also a book called Wine Diet which specifically introduces the use of red wine as an auxiliary weight loss method? Alcohol causes obesity. This is the misconception people have about wine.

In other words,\u00a0we will be more aware of dust, dirt, and even hair inside our homes, right? Introducing Dyson Omni Glide Cordless Vacuum which will make your house cleaner more effortlessly. So how is this latest cordless vacuum from Dyson different from its other siblings? Let's find out.Let's unbox our new Dyson Omni-Glide Cordless VacuumLike I have aforementioned, the pandemic has made us rethink how we work and even learn. With more and more of us are being forced to work from home and attend online classes, our homes have become our offices and classrooms. That being said, we need to ensure that our home is always spotless and tidy all the time right so that we can work and study comfortably. That is why Dyson has engineered a brand new cordless vacuum for us.8 Reasons Why I Love the Dyson Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum1. Omni-Directional Fluffy Cleaner HeadWith the Dyson Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum, rest assured that cleaning your house will only get easier. This latest compact cord-free vacuum will make cleaning hard floors extremely easy. With the brand new Omni-directional Fluffy cleaner head, you can now glide your Dyson Vacuum in any direction that you want. This never-seen-before design will enable you to easily move in any direction be it forwards, backward, and even sideways.By using the Dyson Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum, you can manoeuvre in your house, around furniture, or any obstacles effortlessly. Tight spaces will no longer be a problem thanks to the new 360\u00b0 Fluffy cleaner head that can twist and turn in any direction that you want. So now all the hidden dust under your sofa or the bread crumbs underneath your dining table can be easily and quickly picked up by this new Dyson cordless vacuum.Glide in any direction easily!You will notice that traditional vacuums are not that user-friendly when it comes to cleaning your house. In fact, there are also other cordless vacuum cleaners that cannot easily reach tight, inflexible spaces not thanks to a badly-designed cleaner head. With that in mind, the brilliant engineers at Dyson have created this omni-directional Fluffy Cleaner head that can move and glide in any direction including those difficult nooks and crannies. So no dirt, dust, and hair can now hide!2. Counter-Rotating Brush BarsComplementing the Omni-Directional Fluffy head cleaner head are the two amazing counter-rotating brush bars. Unlike other Dyson cordless vacuums, the Omni-Glide features 2 counter-rotating brush bars that spin at the same speed, enabling super-efficient pick up in both directions. In other words, this mechanism can easily suck anything in its path, leaving only clean traces in its trails. I can imagine being trapped and grabbed by 2 counter-rotating traps! *Gosh* So if you are speckles of dust or dirt, you would be running for your life.3. In-line format for Omni-GlidePerhaps one of the most remarkable innovations that you could see is the brand new in-line format. Essentially, that means the motor, the separation system, filter, and handle are all aligned, allowing the Dyson Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum to lie FLAT to the floor. I have never seen any vacuum is able to do so. Being able to lie flat is really a big deal as it unlocks tight spaces that will otherwise be impossible to reach. So now vacuuming under the sofa or between furniture is virtually a breeze.Easily glide underneath any tight spaces4. Dyson Hyperdymium MotorThe reason why Dyson is one of the best cordless vacuums in the market is the fact that it is powerful enough to replace traditional vacuums cleaners. Though the Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum is compact and light, it still packs a massive punch and suction power thanks to the Dyson Hyperdymium Motor. Spinning rapidly at 105,000rpm, true, robust suction is achieved and no fine dust can escape. The five stages of filtration then complete the job, capturing 99.99% of particles as minute as 0.3 microns.5. LED Pipe Crevice Tool + Multipurpose ToolsVacuuming using a cordless vacuum is already something very fun. Throw in a few LED lights, and you will be wielding a lightsaber in your quest to vanquish all the dirt and dust inside your home. LOL \ud83d\ude01 Yes! Dyson has included a light pipe crevice tool with LED lights to illuminate where you are cleaning, especially those dark spaces. So you can now vacuum in the dark!Now dust can hide in the dark anymore! \ud83d\ude01My Dyson Cordless Vacuum is my Lightsaber! \ud83d\ude0eApart from the crevice tool, you will also be getting another 3 accessories to power up your Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum. The mini motorized tool, worktop tool, and combination tool really make the vacuum more versatile. It's like it can transform and help you tackle hair and dirt easily be it on your mattresses, ceilings, or even in your car.Gears for Dyson Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum1. Omni-directional Fluffy Head Cleaner\u00a0(multipurpose open space hard floor)2. Wide Nozzle Tool (upholstery and open space)3. Light-pipe crevice tool\u00a0(small, tight spaces)4. Soft Dusting Brush\u00a0(window ledges, wall skirting)5. Mini Motorised Tool\u00a0(stairs, furniture, car, small spaces)6. Power Button Instead of a TriggerThose who have used other versions of Dyson cordless vacuum have always hoped that they could get a power button instead of using the trigger. Personally, I prefer the classic trigger which makes vacuuming fun and more \"immersive\" for me. However, replacing the trigger with a power button is really a good move as it allows you to easily change hands while you are vacuuming. So cleaning is now more fluid and hassle-free with just the push of a button.7. Light Like a BroomstickSince it is the smallest and most compact Dyson Cordless Vacuum to date, the Omni-Glide is really as light as a broomstick, literally! Tipping the scale at only 1.9kg, you will not even notice its weight. It's so light that my children enjoy cleaning the house right now. So if you want your kids to do more house chores, get this featherweight cordless vacuum from Dyson now. Sometimes it is really hard to imagine that something so light is equipped with 8 powerful cyclones that generate forces of 98,000g. BAM!So light that anyone can use it!8. Clean & Easy To MaintainJust like any other Dyson cordless vacuum, it is pretty simple to empty the bin. You can easily eject all the hair, dirt, and dust in one smooth action thanks to the silicone collar. Yupe! So you can empty the bin without even dirtying your hands at all. On top of that, you can also remove and wash the bin, filter, brush bar, and any tools as you please to make sure that your Omni-Glide is always clean and dust-free.VERDICT-SHOULD I GET THE OMNI-GLIDE?The Dyson Omni-Glide Cordless Vacuum is powered by a removable, fade-free battery that has a run time of 20 minutes. With just a click of a button, you can easily swap and replace the battery. It is inevitable that we will be vacuuming our home more often and that is why this compact cordless vacuum will be ideal for your family. No wires and tangles, just glide around your house and clean as you go.

We have previously dined in Fugo Ryori Melaka and after that visit, we decided to patronize Wa Zen Melaka for my wife's birthday. Obviously, this birthday dinner had taken place before the MCO. So how does Wa Zen compare to Fugo Ryori? Let's find out.Wa Zen Melaka Serves Authentic Japanese CuisineWelcome to one of the best Japenese restaurants in Melaka.If you ask any Japanese food lovers for their recommendations of Japanese cuisines in Melaka, Wa Zen Japanese Melaka is definitely one of the renowned names that will be mentioned along with Fugo Ryori. Interestingly, both of these Japanese restaurants are situated very close to one another in Melaka Raya (Melaka) but I am sure they are not affiliated in any way. Guess, a lot of the good food in Melaka can be found in Melaka Raya.Zen-like interior design at Wa Zen MelakaUnlike Fugo Ryori, Wa Zen Melaka seemed to be a bit more spacious compared to the former as the restaurant consists of two conjoined units. Wooden furniture and fixtures can be seen everywhere in Wa Zen Melaka for its decorations and interior design, giving out that zen-like ambiance that is synonymous with Japanese restaurants. Together with the dimly lit atmosphere, you will have a great setting for a romantic dinner.Let's start ordering our food!Wa Zen Melaka prides itself in serving authentic Japanese food and that made ordering what we wanted to eat kind of difficult for us. Looking at the menu confirmed our initial dilemma but still, we have to decide as we only have that much space in our tummies. The first to land on our dining table was Karei Udon (RM18). We particularly love this lip-smacking udon in Japanese-style curry to whet our appetite. It was spicy but just nice for our liking.Karei UdonAvocado Unagi MakiLove the combination of unagi, avocado and mango!Our next Japanese dish was the unbelievably tasty Avocado Unagi Maki\u00a0(RM28). This certainly had raised my eyebrows. I couldn't believe that this unagi could be so delicious. The reverse rice roll filled with unagi and cheese, topped with avocado and mango. The combination of avocado, mango, and unagi had really brought out that tantalizing fusion aftertaste.Yaki UdonKatsu Karei RiceYou just can't get enough of Japanese curryUp next we had the \"playful\" Yaki Udon (RM22) which your taste buds would surely have fun trying to decipher to ingredients used. Our Japanese-styled fried udon with vegetables and meat was really a delight. Like I have aforementioned, our family is a big fan of spicy food and Japanese curry, so we ordered Katsu Karei Rice (RM22). Nothing beats eating fragrant pearl rice topped with deep fried pork belly and course the curry from the Land of The Rising Sun.Salmon Tempura MakiExquisite and of course tastyAfter savouring the Avocado Unagi Maki, we tried another different assortment of Maki. Cut into 8 pieces, the Salmon Tempura Maki (RM24) were really colourful and flavourful. We truly enjoyed our deep fried reverse rice roll filled with crab stick and salmon in batter. So many flavours to enjoy in one single bite...and ouh yeah don't forget to dip it with the refreshingly piquant wassabi.GyozaBacon PizzaNo feast would be perfect with the addition of one or two side orders right? To satisfy the \"gluttons\" in us, we ordered a plate of gyoza (RM10) to complement our meal. The fried dumplings were really delectable especially when you dip them into the Japanese soy sauce. We also really liked the crispy and aromatic Bacon Pizza (RM24). Dressed with fish roe and chunks of avocado, the pizza was surprisingly good. Then again, I still prefer the Shake Pizza from Fugo Ryori which was more crispy and luscious.Coco and Vanilla Ice Cream WaffleJasmine girl posing with our beverages \ud83d\ude01I guess the 4 of us had walloped quite a lot of food, right? *Buuurppp* Of course, since this was a birthday celebration, we should at least have something sweet at the end, no? The dessert that we ordered was Coco and Vanilla Ice Cream Waffle (RM15) which was a fitting, chilling treat to sump up wifey's dinner. As for beverages, we quenched our thirst and extinguished our flaming taste buds with apple juice, orange juice and not to forget the must have Japanese beverage-hot green tea.Dining with your family is always a priceless moment!Wifey with her 2 big darling babies \ud83d\ude0dHappy birthday my beloved wifey \ud83d\ude18All in all, we truly enjoyed ourselves in Wa Zen Melaka. My wife was of course very happy to be able to celebrate her big day in one of the best Japanese restaurants in Melaka. It is definitely up there along with Fugo Ryori when it comes to mouth-watering authentic Japanese cuisines. If you want to indulge in fresh, scrumptious and \"proven\" Japanese food, then you really need to give Wa Zen Melaka a try.Wa Zen Japanese Restaurant MelakaAddress:\u00a038, Jalan Melaka Raya 15, Taman Melaka Raya, 75000 Melaka.Website:\u00a0https://www.wazen.com.myContact:\u00a006-2823882Opening Hours:\u00a0Daily (12:30p.m.-3:30pm, 5:30-8:00p.m.)Wa Zen Japanese Restaurant Melaka Map"} {"title": "IT'S SIXPACK Aik Cheong Coffee That Will Surprise You", "body": "Coffee lovers, especially those who are residing in Melaka, know that Aik Cheong brews one of the best-tasting coffee in Malaysia.

This also gives your more flexibility as you can control how sweet you want your drinks to be. I must say that this convenience is really brilliant and thoughtful!4 Flavours of IT'S SIXPACK1. IT'S SIXPACK Cappuccino Choco ToppingAs I have aforementioned, my favourite has got to be this heavenly IT's SIXPACK Cappucino Choco Topping. Why? First and foremost, it is because of the aromatic Cappucino and secondly, the complementary Choco Topping powder has totally elevated the whole taste of the Cappuccino. It tastes so divine and you will surely feel that ASMR sensation with every sip of your Cappuccino with Choco Topping!2. IT'S SIXPACK Chocolate MarshmallowWho can resist the temptations that marshmallow brings, right?

IT'S SIXPACK Teh Tarik Gula MelakaInterestingly, the third beverage from Aik Cheong for its IT'S SIXPACK series is the Teh Tarik Gula Melaka. What makes it so special is the addition of Gula Melaka which is what Melaka is well-known for. The Gula Melaka is not only a great healthful sweetener but also adds that unmistakable texture and aroma to your Teh Tarik drink. Add Nata De Coco, and your Teh Tarik will be transformed into a toothsome drink that is both palatable and playful.4. IT'S SIXPACK White Coffee Salted Gula MelakaOut of the 4 flavours from Aik Cheong Coffee's IT'S SIXPACK, this is the one that gives me that starstruck sensation.

I gritted my teeth and tried a sip...and now I understand what is \"Love at First Sip!\" I can't believe I have not tried this White Coffee Salted Gula Melaka before.

Though a lot of earbuds in the market allow you to do so, I do feel that it is a hassle to press the button for several long seconds just to adjust the volume. In fact, it is better to control the volume using the device or smartphone they are connected to. I have had some not-so-good experience, trying to control the volume using my previous earbuds. \ud83d\ude02Ultra-clear MicrophonesIf you use your earbuds to talk on the phone a lot, then you will love using Sudio Ett to make and receive calls.

This budget-friendly device is currently the cheapest 5G-capable smartphone from Samsung. If you want an affordable (RM1,199 only) smartphone that is 5G-ready, long battery life, and can take decent photos as well as videos, then this is the smartphone that you should get.Samsung Galaxy A32 5G: My In-depth ReviewLike I have aforementioned, the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G is a no-frill no-nonsense smartphone that can easily fit into anyone's budget. Despite its cheap price tag, you will be astounded to know that it boasts 5G connectivity and at the same time still have great hardware (8GB RAM + 128GB Storage) to back it up. The best part is, you will love its decent quad cameras that will give you more than what you have bargained for.4G LTE or 5G Variant?In our Malaysian market, Samsung Galaxy A32 has been officially released in 2 different variants namely the 4G LTE model and the one that I am currently using-the 5G model. So what is the difference(s)? Obviously, the latter supports 5G connectivity so you can enjoy blazing-fast Internet once 5G becomes available in Malaysia. However, in terms of display, the 4G LTE model has the upper hand thanks to its 90Hz AMOLED screen while the 5G variant only has an LCD display to show. Other than that, both the models appear to be carbon copies of each other.Elegant DesignThough Galaxy A32 5G is just a budget smartphone, the company ensures that it looks good as well. The back cover appears to be adorned with glossy plastic which exudes quite a lot of charm similar to the more expensive real glass. This new design also allows the cameras-bump to be slightly less conspicuous both visually and physically which is really a bonus. I also like how the fingerprint sensor has been moved to the side which makes it easier for me to unlock the device. The only downside is its thickness that some might not like.Side fingerprint sensor (bottom)Display-A CompromiseI wish that the display of the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G could have been better. However, it is a pale comparison when you put it side by side with its 4G LTE sibling. I am slightly disappointed to know that the 6.5-inch Infinity-V display of A32 5G comes with 720x1600 pixel screen which has a refresh rate of 60Hz. You will not be getting any AMOLED display and instead, you will have to make do with the IPS\u00a0 LCD display.Having said so, the display of Samsung Galaxy A32 5G is capable of hitting a peak of 557 nits which is really good. That means you can still enjoy any content on your smartphone under broad daylight easily thanks to its excellent brightness without squinting your eyes. In terms of colours, they are quite punchy and vivid as well for my liking. I believe that an LCD screen is used to save cost and battery at the same time. So it is a compromise.Cameras-Surprisingly DecentShutterbugs will be happy to know that Samsung Galaxy A32 5G is actually a pretty decent smartphone for you to capture beautiful photos and videos for your social media feeds. Get ready to snap away with the great\u00a0quad-camera setup. To recap, you will get\u00a0a 48MP f/1.8 main shooter, 8MP f/2.2 Ultra-wide angle lens, 5MP f/2.4 Macro camera and last but not least a 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor. On paper, these cameras sound pretty good especially when you can shoot 4K quality videos!Initially, I did not expect to snap great photos with the Galaxy A32 since it is not a flagship device. Though it lacks optical stabilization, the photos captured look surprisingly good especially when lighting is not an issue. Colours reproduced are richer with vibrant hues popping up thanks to the considerably lower noise. Overall, the cameras have performed well if you do not use too much digital zoom.Normal outdoor shotUsing the Wide-Angle LensNormal photo modeWhen I use the 10X digital zoom... \ud83d\ude0210X Digital ZoomSince optical zoom is not possible, you still have 10X of digital zoom at your disposal but then again this is not recommended. In my opinion, the more you zoom (digitally), the more \"stretched\" the image appeared to be, rendering it to look more like a painting instead of a real-life photo. Still, it is good if you were to add filters before posting them on your social media accounts. It might turn out to be abstract photos. LOL \ud83d\ude01Excellent PortraitsNow let us talk about the Portrait Mode of Galaxy A32 5G, shall we? If you post a lot of photos on Instagram and Facebook like me, you will know how vital portrait mode is for us. Luckily, Samsung has ensured that they (attempt to) excel in this department. Though not the best, I would say that most of the portraits have been pretty spot on. You could see that the background(s) have been nicely blurred to give more focus on the subject(s). So it is a tick for the Portrait Mode!Beautiful Macro ShotsColour reproduction and dynamic range are quite good as well when it comes to the Ultra-Wide lens of the Galaxy A32 5G. Though upon closer inspection a lot of details are missing, still, shots taken using this mode are really good. How about the Macro Camera? With adequate lighting, my close-up photos using the Macro lens were really beautiful masterpieces. In fact, I could barely distinguish the difference when I compare it to the macro shots taken using my Galaxy Note.Low Light PerformanceI do notice that the low light performance of the Galaxy A32 5G cameras leaves something to be desired. In other words, when you are trying to take photos in a poorly lit place, do expect noise to creep in, making your shots a bit grainy. Fortunately, you can rely on the Night Mode to be your saving grace when capturing photos in dimly lit places. I kinda like using Night Mode a lot too.Let's take selfiesSelfie in Portrait ModeSelfie in a dimly lit roomFront-Facing CameraThe 13MP front-facing camera does an amazing job taking all my selfies and of course making me look really good in virtual meetings. I am honestly impressed with the selfie camera especially when I use it outdoor in broad daylight. Just like the rear quad-cameras, colours reproduction is decent and you will be happy with the sharpness of your shots. Again, the front-facing camera struggles when being used in low light conditions. All in all, in terms of photography, Samsung Galaxy A32 5G performed impressively amazing given its price tag.Great Performance For Mid-Range SmartphoneUnder the hood, Samsung Galaxy A32 5G is powered by\u00a0Mediatek Octa-core Dimensity 720 processor complemented by 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The storage is expandable up to 1TB via MicroSD card. Though not flagship-level hardware, it still performs really well with no noticeable stutter whatsoever. In fact, everything is buttery smooth and snappy thanks to the 8GB of RAM which is more than sufficient for my daily normal usage.Playing Mobile Legends on Galaxy A32 5G is a breezeSee! I even got the MVP! \ud83d\ude0bIf you are a casual gamer like me, you will be delighted to know that I can play games such as Mobile Legends, Clash of Clans and Clash Royale without any hiccups. I am impressed by how responsive Galaxy A32 5G is while I am gaming. Then again, I have yet to try playing any graphic-intensive games. Likewise, my movie-watching and documents-editing sessions have been no-frills as well. Multi-tasking is also a joy as I could seamless open 2 tabs at the same time to be *a~hem* productive.Unbelievable Battery LifeI did not expect the battery life of Samsung Galaxy A32 5G to be this good! It is mind-blowing to know that on a single charge, this smartphone can outlast my Galaxy Note 10 for more than 1 extra day. Yes! Its huge 5,000mAh battery can last you for 2 days for all your normal usages. After watching a few videos for around 5 hours on Youtube, I still have 55% of battery which is crazy. I guess this is achieved thanks to the 720p display which consumes less power.Which will you choose? An AMOLED display (Galaxy A32 4G) or excellent battery life (Galaxy A32 5G) for your smartphone? I will of course choose the latter as I do not want to be plugged into the wall all the time. Charging speed is decent too thanks to the 15-watt adaptive fast charging via USB-C. After testing extensively, I must say that its battery performance alone outshines most of the flagships from Samsung.VERDICTSo is Samsung Galaxy A32 5G worth it? The answer is a resounding YES! Besides 5G connectivity, you will also be getting expandable storage of up to 1TB and even a 3.5mm headphone jack! These two features are like must-have for me. On top of the huge 5,000mAh battery, you can also enjoy buttery smooth One UI 3.0 from Samsung. Of course, the icing on the cake has got to be the impressive cameras which have exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a smartphone with long-lasting battery life, decent cameras and 5G connectivity, then you will really need to buy Samsung Galaxy A32 5G! With a price tag of only RM1,199, it is a steal!

Today I am going to share my honest Getha Latex Pillow review which I believe will benefit those who want a good night's sleep. It is a fact that a well-designed pillow can improve the quality of your sleep, helping you feel refreshed and energetic the next morning.Our Getha Latex Pillow ReviewIs your pillow really good?Before this, my wife and I needed to toss and turn on our bed for quite some time before we could really fall asleep. Our pillows were not as good as we thought they should be even though we have paid quite a lot of money for each of them. Sometimes sleeping time can be quite dreadful as the pillows were hot, stuffy and not to our liking. All that has changed once we were introduced to Getha Latex pillows.Sleeping time can be frustrating if you don't have the right pillowWe actually have got 4 Getha Latex pillow; 2 for us adults and another 2 for our kids. My wife and I have been sleeping on our Getha 3D Auto Latex Pillows for almost 1 month now and I must frankly say that our sleep has never been this great! Though we have purchased a few different expensive pillows before, none has come close to match the sleep quality that our new latex pillows could offer.Getha 3D Auto Latex PillowThere are a variety of Getha pillows available in their official webstore but in the end, we settled for this special Getha 3D Auto Latex Pillows of ours. Made from 100% natural latex, this special pillow is ideal for all your sleeping habits. Yupe!

Hence I am turning to Gravgear Weighted Vest to help me burn fat, lose weight and become ripped! Yes! I want to be lean and muscular again just like what I used to be 10 years ago. After doing some extensive research, I realize that investing in a weighted vest will be the best option for me to help me pursue my fitness goals as I spend most of my time at home and away from the gym.GravGear Weighted Vest-The Best Adjustable Weight VestSo why did I choose a weighted vest instead of other exercise equipment such as a treadmill or maybe an ab roller? Simply put a great\u00a0weighted vest can be worn anytime and anywhere, providing round-the-clock exercise. In other words, if you are looking for a full-body workout that can be done regardless of the place and time, then look no further than GravGear Weighted Vest.

The following are some of the reasons why I am loving my GravGear Weighted Vest which is the best weighted vest in its class right now especially in Malaysia and Singapore.7 Reasons Why GravGear Weighted Vest Is The Best1. Highly AdjustableUnlike other weighted vests which have limited options to adjust the vest, GravGear Weighted Vest will give you total customization to suit your needs. There are 2 versions of GravGear Weightest Vest available namely the 12kg version and the 16kg version. I of course opted for the 16kg version of the weighted vest. Why? You see, since it is adjustable, I can easily remove or re-add the iron nuggets according to my needs. Rule of thumb, always go for the biggest size as you have more \"room\" for adjustment later.Customize your weight easily!All-in-one weighted vestWhen I go for my running sessions, I will usually load the maximum 16kg to give myself a full body workout even when I hit the tarmac. If I am carrying out the more difficult pull-up exercise, I can adjust my weighted vest by reducing the weight to around 6kg instead. Clearly, you can easily cuztomize the weight and make the vest truly yours. Hence, GravGear Weighted Vest is also ideal for women and ladies alike. I have let my wife try it and it fits her perfectly. There is no doubt that this is a one-size-fits-all weighted vest for everyone!2. Premium Quality MaterialAs I will be wearing my weighted vest a lot for my workout and exercise, quality is very important. Despite loading the maximum 16kg, my weighted vest still works like a pro without a single scratch. Do you know that GravGear Weighted Vest is made from the premium quality of\u00a0CORDURA\u00ae Advanced Fabrics\u00a0which makes it extremely durable and sturdy. No wonder at times I feel like I am wearing a bulletproof vest. LOL \ud83d\ude01Premium quality builtHeavy duty bucklesThe velcro strap works like a charm despite countless times of adjustments. Since you will need to fasten and remove the weighted vest, you will appreciate its super heavy duty buckle that can take any abuse you throw at it. After using my GravGear Weighted Vest for more than 30 days, I can safely say that it is made from materials of the highest quality and is definitely resistant to wear and tear. It is certainly built to last if you ask me!3. Ultra ComfortableCarrying 16kg of extra weight with you while working out is supposed to be painful and stressful, right? Boy! How wrong was I! Honestly speaking I feel so comfortable wearing my GravGear Weighted Vest which is amazing! The thick shoulder straps which are luxuriously padded make me feel like the weighted vest\u00a0is not there at all! In other words, it feels like I am not wearing anything while stepping into a chamber with increased gravitational pull. Wow!Fits comfortably like a gloveLuxurious thick shoulder padding for extra comfortDo you know that you can even wear this GravGear Weighted Vest even without wearing your T-Shirt or clothes? (Wait!

That is why I am happy to discover JazzUp Word Game and i-Juara for my children. Both these new card games are highly recommended for school going kids as they help to improve proficiency of English language and Bahasa Malaysia respectively.JazzUp Word Game and i-Juara To Improve Children's LearningAs parents, we are all worried that our children will be too engrossed in using mobile phones and tablets to play games and watching videos.

Besides the colourful letter cards, each pack includes a score card and of course instructions on how to play the card games. I am really impressed by the quality of the letter cards which are very premium and glossy. It feels good to run your fingers on them. Rest assured that the cards will be durable to withstand any wear and tear, allowing the whole family to have countless hours of fun.How To Play JazzUp Word Game and i-Juara?Right off the bat, the goal is to form words from the 15 letter cards given in 5 minutes' time. It will be easy to form a few short words. The challenge would be to crack your head, forming a word that consists of as many alphabets as possible. For example if you can form a 10-letter word such as \"groundnuts\", you will be awarded a whopping 30 points! Likewise forming a word consisting of only 5 letters such as \"jelly\" will only earn you merely 9 points. That's a huge difference right? So always aim to\u00a0 build a word made up of as many letters as possible.Another objective is to use all the 15 cards available at your disposal. The more cards you use to form your words, the more points you will be able to score. Do note that there are 2 ways to play JazzUp Word Game and i-Juara. The first is the simpler Line Up method while the latter is the more challenging Crossword method. It is highly recommended that you start with Line Up and move on to Crossword.10 Steps To Play\u00a0JazzUp Word Game and i-JuaraPlace all letter cards face down in 2 stacks.Shuffle the cards to mix them up evenly.Deal 15 letter cards, face down to each player.

Can Be Played Anywhere & AnytimeThese card games are compact in size and highly portable. In other words, you can bring them around and start playing no matter where you are be it in the car or while dining in a fancy restaurant. Since no battery is required, these card games can be played all the time.2. Great Teaching Aid (for Parents and Teachers)Being a parent, I must say that I am really happy that I have chanced upon these amazing card games.

So parents can play these card games with their little ones to help them learn better. Teachers and schools should also invest in\u00a0JazzUp Word Game and i-Juara to help their students learn better while playing.3. Help to Expand VocabularyLike I have aforementioned, to become the victor of the game you need to obtain as many points as possible. Hence children will do their best to form longer words that will earn them more points. They will then start to attempt forming different words to garner more points. This trial and error strategy will also make them be more intrigued to look up for more words in their English and Bahasa Malaysia dictionaries. Eventually their command of vocabulary for both English and Bahasa Malaysia will be expanded.4. Develop Memory PowerIn order to score more points, our children have started to learn a lot of longer words as they want to form these words while playing\u00a0JazzUp Word Game and i-Juara. They have even gone the extra mile by memorizing certain words, hoping that they could \"replicate\" these words in their games later. Some of the notable words I have overheard them discussing were, homecoming, technology, government, university and renovation just to name a few. Obviously their extra effort also means that they are honing their spelling skill at the same time. Talking about killing two birds with one stone huh!5. Suitable for People from Any Age GroupSurprisingly both\u00a0JazzUp Word Game and i-Juara are not only suitable for school going children but adults as well. My wife and I also enjoy playing these card games as they will make us crack our head, thinking of words that could help us win the match up. Since we are adults, we will also try our best to build even longer words. As each player is only given 15 cards, we have to make sure that we only use the alphabets to form words which will let us reap the maximum points. Both\u00a0JazzUp Word Game and i-Juara also teach us grown-ups to make do with whatever we are given. So you can say that these card games are equally challenging for adults, pitting us against each other and with our backs against the wall.6.

Yes! Our next highlight was the Flight of The Colugo-Zip Line at The Habitat Penang Hill. Arguably, this extreme activity is definitely for thrill-seekers who want to defy gravity while \"levitating\" in the sky. If you happen to be in Penang, then you have to include this exciting zip line activity as a must-visit attraction in your Penang itinerary.Flight of The Colugo-Zip Line At The Habitat Penang HillIt is time to gear up!You will of course need to first purchase The Habitat\u00a0admission tickets to get to the Flight of The Colugo Zip Line. We opted for the complete Flight of The Colugo experience which consists of 5 zip line courses\u00a0which can be completed around an hour. The tickets for the zip line will include equipment rental together with experienced professional guides. So basically you do not have to bring anything to enjoy this zip line adventure. Do note that prior booking is highly advisable since there will be very limited slots available each day.Our safety is their priorityMake sure that everything is fastened and securedThe full, complete Flight of The Colugo Zip Line experience will allow you to glide like a Colugo. In case you didn't notice, Flight of The Colugo is actually named after the Malaysian Flying Lemur\u00a0 which can be found in this rainforest. The thought of gracing the skies like a flying lemur had really excited us-especially Jordan boy and Jasmine girl. So this zip line adventure in The Habitat is definitely a must-try for parents and their kids.Zip Line Demonstration Before We StartedFirst and foremost, we would need to \"suit up\". Our guides-Ms Waheeda and Naqibah helped us to put on our safety equipment consisting of harnesses, belts and of course helmet. After that they showed us how we should be zip-lining later through a mini safety demonstration. Peel your eyes and make sure you are paying attention to what they will be teaching you, especially the little ones. Our guides did their very best to ensure that we were well-informed which we did.Let's start our Flight of The Colugo Zipline AdventureHoneymoon Zipline-Teaser For YouThen it was the moment of truth. Slowly we inched towards our first zip-line platform-The Honeymoon Zipline. Honestly I was not really shaken or anything as I had done this before but my wife and children were obviously a bit nervous (just a wee bit). However, knowing that their man-me was\u00a0 not intimidated at gave them some assurance that everything would be ok. So back to our very first Honeymoon Zipline, it is a unique zipline as two people can zip through at the same time and obviously this is very popular with couples who would hold hands while flying over the trees.Hold the hand of your loved one in this tandem Honeymoon Zipline! \ud83d\ude0dSome visitors to The Habitat have opted for the 80-metre Honeymoon Zipline instead of the full, complete experience. This is ideal for those who just wants to have a brief taste of what this extreme sports could bring. Then again, I would highly recommend that you try the full zipline experience as it will only get better and more exciting. You will not regret it for sure. Do not be worried as the experienced and professional guides will be with you all the time.Our professional guides guided us through and throughSo you do not need to be afraid of anything \ud83d\ude04See you on the other sideIt is time fly over or through the forest!Our guides were always there to ensure we had a safe landing!Our guides-Ms Waheeda and Naqibah were always there to educate us about the correct way to zipline. They constantly reminded us not to jump off or run off our platforms; We should not to touch the line; And not to forget to lift our feet when we arrive at our next platform. Both of them would always make sure that at least one of our carabiners was attached all the time for our safety. They told us that they have had rigorous training every few months to be in tip top shape. Obviously our safety was their main priority and that gave us absolute peace of mind, knowing that out ziplining adventure would be fun and of course safe.This Zipline adventure at The Habitat is ideal for kids as wellThe Suspended Rope BridgeBesides the ziplines, one of the challenges included was the suspended rope bridge. It is not for the faint of heart and definitely will be a daunting task for people with acrophobia (fear of heights). Then again if you are afraid of heights, your fear is not unfounded. The suspended bridge might swing from side-to-side a wee bit but then again you are perfectly safe as you will always be connected to their safety line. You need walk to the other end of the bridge on your own two feet which might be quite nerve-wrecking. Still, this will be an experience you will not remember for a long time to come.The suspended rope bridge is perfectly safe!\u00a0It did sway a bit but it was fun!After our \"suspenseful\" rope bridge crossing, we move to our next two jumps. As we travelled towards our next zipline stations, the platforms kept getting higher and higher off the ground. The finale or the fifth jump was a fitting ending with the platform reaching a\u00a0 height of 26 meters. If you have made it this far, I doubt that you will still be intimidated by height anymore. At this point, all of us were simply taking in the amazing view and soaking in the pleasant atmosphere that the luxuriant foliage and tall trees were offering us. It is not every day that you could be this \"high\", no?We are Colugos! Let's Zipline!Look at how close we were to the tree branches.Professional and Humorous GuideBy the way, we really want to extend our heartiest gratitude to our guides-Ms Waheeda and Naqibah who were professional and humorous at the same time. Both of them made sure that we were safe and sound all the time while we were ziplining across the forest. They were also very proficient in English and Bahasa Malaysia, making our communication easy and fun. From time to time, they cracked us up with their jokes and surely both our children had a whale of time ziplining with their reassuring presence. Besides tickling our bones, Ms Waheeda and Naqibah were also very knowledgeable about the forest. They shared with us a wealth of information ranging from resin of the trees to huge spiders that we overlooked.Get up close and personal with mother natureSticky tree resinEnjoy the breathtaking sceneryNot a single nail is used to construct these zipline coursesShould You Join The Flight of The Colugo?The answer is a resounding YES! If you are already in The Habitat, it makes perfect sense to take up this exhilarating ziplining experience. After all, you are already there right? Might as well seize the opportunity and take part in the activity. Nothing beats flying in the sky while looking down the dense forest underneath us. Even the teaser Honeymoon Zipline would be fine.\u00a0 But I highly recommend that you sign up for the full, complete zipline experience. Knowing that we would not be here again for some time, we immediately opted for the full, complete package.Flight of the Colugo at The Habitat Penang is a MUST-try!Watch our Flight of The Colugo AdventureFrankly speaking, my wife, children and I truly enjoyed our Flight of The Colugo Zip Line adventure.\u00a0 I don't think that my kids even flinched when they were zip-lining.

If you want to defy gravity and possess the superpower of levitation, then you really need to try this Flight of The Colugo.

Just like Entopia Penang, it is yet another gem that all visitors to the island should make a trip to. Nestled on top of Penang Hill, The Habitat gives you the opportunity to be amongst pristine rainforest which is a staggering 130-million-year old. It doesn't matter if you are a nature lover or someone who just wants to be away from the hustle and bustle of the city; You will definitely have an unforgettable time on the peak of Penang.How To Get To The Habitat Penang Hill?Welcome to The Habitat PenangBefore you can get to The Habitat, you actually need to take the Penang Hill funicular ride first. Knowing that there would be lots of visitors, we embarked on our journey pretty early on that day. After purchasing our tickets, we started lining up to get into our funicular. Being early had its perks as we did not have to wait long and in no time we were on our way up to Penang Hill. The funicular ride lasted around 3 to 4 minutes but it was quite amazing especially if you get to be in the very last coach.The Kancil Walk at The HabitatThis was actually our second visit to The Habitat Penang Hill. We had been to this marvelous attraction 2 years ago when both of children were younger. Now that they are a bit older, I could enjoy fully enjoy this breathtaking sanctuary and took a lot of photos. Unlike our previous trip, this time around our family decided to book the Kancil Walk guided tour which made our whole trip more knowledgeable and fun. When we were here 2 years ago, we opted for the normal self-guided tour which I must say now was not a wise choice.Our Kancil Walk tour guideIf this is your first time to The Habitat, I really recommend that you book this Kancil Walk so that you could get all the \"insider knowledge\" available to you. Yep! A very experienced tour guide will be joining you and explain everything that you could see, feel and listen to in this virgin forest! Our Kancil Walk tour guide really made our trip very interesting as he explained in depth whatever that he knew passionately. The best part was, he could converse fluently in all 3 languages-English, Malay and Mandarin.The Langur Way Canopy WalkOne of the attractions in The Habitat has got to be the Langur Way Canopy Walk which is an eco-friendly bridge that is 15-metre high and spans a length of 230-metre. What makes this bridge so fascinating is the fact that only cables were used to hold it in its place. No nails and drilling were involved. The bridge is actually named after the Dusky Leaf Langurs or monkeys which were there to witness the construction of the bridge. Our tour guide said the the Langurs were enjoying their leaves while \"supervising\" the building of \"their\" bridge. LOL \ud83d\ude01Welcome to The Langur Way Canopy WalkCan you see what's crawling on the tree?Black termite!Hmm...what are they looking for?Posing with their discoveryBeautiful BloomDo you know that the Langur Way Canopy Walk is the world's longest two-span stressed ribbon bridge? There is no doubt about the architecture and engineering behind this bridge; More importantly it is about the flora and fauna which surrounds this canopy walkway. As we were strolling along the bridge, our guide pointed to us a lot of discoveries that we would otherwise have overlooked. We were taken aback to stumble upon \"black\" termite as we thought that they were supposed to be in white colour. Guess there were so much more to mother nature than meets the eye right?The Trail & Garden Within The HabitatI must admit that I was flabbergasted to learn so much from our Kancil Walk guided tour. From historical facts to botanical knowledge, we had acquired so much priceless information on that day in just a matter of hours. It doesn't matter if you are a naturalist or someone who just wants to be close to lush greenery, you will appreciate 1.6KM nature trail which span across the Habitat. Certainly, you will feel like nature is strutting its stuff in its full glory with tall, majestic trees, beautiful blooms of flowers and of course the all-encompassing foliage that is everywhere!Posing with the map of The HabitatOur Kancil Walk tour guide explained to us about the plantsAdults and kids will definitely had a great time at The HabitatGetting to know mother natureIf only we could spend more time hereRest assured that you will be mesmerized by a variety of plants and trees that you might have never seen before in your life. That's true for my children and I. At The Habitat, we somehow felt like we were alien visitors from another planet. Every single turn was another surprise awaiting us; Everywhere we went, there would always be something new to be discovered. We even spotted a venomous green snake and a super hairy caterpillar just to name a few. Honestly these discoveries of ours were truly an eye-opening experience to say the least.There will be plenty of information board about the flora and fauna in The HabitatNocturnal animals that you could spot hereThe icon of The Habitat-ColugoOther animals that you can see roaming in the forestLook at and you might see some of these creaturesI am so in love with this photoIt is a symbiotic connectionThe wonder of natureBuah Salak aka Snake FruitMonkey will drink from these (orange) flowersVisitors to The Habitat need to make sure your smartphone(s) are fully charged or at least you have an extra power bank. Why? Because you will be taking lots of photos of exotic and exquisite flora and fauna. Our lively Kancil Walk tour guide pointed out to us so many plants that we could not distinguish on our own. At times we really wanted to touch every single plant and take a whiff of lovely flowers that we had stumbled upon. We just needed to be more careful when we tried to get up close and personal with mother nature, ok? We almost didn't notice the green venomous snake thanks to its brilliant camouflage.

Super hairy caterpillar! \ud83d\ude2cCan you spot a green snake blending amongst the leaves?It is the Wagler Pit Viper which is venomous \ud83d\ude31Curtis Crest Treetop WalkAfter walking for more than an hour, we had finally reached one of the highlights at The Habitat. Enter the majestic Curtis Crest Treetop Walk, which is arguably one of the most iconic landmarks for Penang at the moment. In fact many visitors made their way to The Habitat thanks to this latest gem. You will be thrilled to walk on the 13 meters raised walkway which will give you a phenomenal 360 degree view of Penang. Standing at 800 meters above sea level, the Curtis Crest Treetop Walk is the highest viewing point in Penang. If it is not cloudy, you can even see all the way to the Langkawi Island which is around 120km away.En route to Curtis Crest Treetop WalkFor the uninitiated, Curtis Crest Treetop Walk got its name from the famous botanist Charles Curtis. While you are slowly strolling along the elevated walk, you will notice the beautiful conifer trees underneath you which were planted by Charles Curtis himself. The layers of the fascinating conifer trees give you the impression that you are actually walking on top of the trees. Perhaps those who are afraid of height, might find this a bit challenging but then again it is perfectly safe. Both my children had no problem at all while they were enjoying the spectacular sight on top of the walk.Behold the majestic Curtis Crest Treetop Walk\u00a0Magnificent viewIt is arguably one of the most iconic attractions in Penang right nowIf you are still worried, do note that the Curtis Crest Treetop Walk can hold up to 120 people at a single time. Hence we can say that the construction of the treetop walk is not only beautiful but also sturdy at the same time. You will definitely enjoy the cold gentle breeze caressing your face as the fresh air invigorates your lungs after your climb to the top. We spent quite some time there taking lots of photos and of soaking up the soothing ambiance and of course the splendid scenery. Soon we bid farewell to our tour guide and then headed to the next highlight of The Habitat.So Should You Visit The Habitat Penang?We really want to thank our Kancil Walk tour guide who had really expounded everything he knows about The Habitat with lots of flair and in-depth knowledge.

Instead of going to a nearby eatery for our dinner, we decided to to dine inside the hotel itself. After reading countless glowing reviews about the scrumptious food being served in Southern Court Chinese Restaurant, my wife suggested that we give it a try. It turned out to be a wise choice for our tummies indeed.Dinner At Southern Court Chinese Restaurant of Bayview Hotel MelakaFor the uninitiated, the Southern Court Chinese Restaurant in Bayview Hotel Melaka serves authentic Szechuan and Cantonese cuisines. That's right! So if you are craving genuine Szechuan and Cantonese dishes in Melaka, you really need to head over to this famous restaurant. It had been a while since we last dined in a restaurant which dishes out oriental food. We were there quite early after our swimming sessions, making us extremely hungry. I am sure this lovely restaurant is included in the top list of online ordering for restaurants in Melaka.Southern Court Chinese Restaurant follows the required SOPNo meal will be complete without coffeeUpon arrival, we were immediately in awe of the restaurant's classic and yet luxurious decorations. The courteous waiter immediately ushered us to our preferred table and even handed each of us a plastic packet to store our mask. All in all we ordered 5 different dishes to savour. I must say that the intricate wood carvings and the whimsical Chinese instrumental music in the Southern Court Chinese Restaurant really set us in the mood for our dinner. Yours truly me loved the sight of the traditional wooden chairs which made me reminisce about the good old days in my late grandmother's house.\u00a0Shark \"fin\" soup was our appetizerAs we were one of the earliest patrons in Southern Court Chinese Restaurant, the chef could attend to us first and in no time, our\u00a0 mouth-watering dinner was served. It pays to be early. \ud83d\ude04 First to land on our dining table was a huge bowl of \"Shark Fin Soup\". Ok! Do not be alarmed. No sharks were finned and harmed to prepare this delicacy. Instead we were served the so-called artificial (or imitation) shark fin soup as appetizer. I could not tell how close it tasted compared to the real shark fin soup as I have not had any for decades. Still, the scrumptious broth together with the ingredients inside really whetted our appetite.Up next was mixed vegetables with tofu. Though the dish might look simple, I love how flavourful it was together with the thick, savory sauce which really went well with our white rice. Another plate of stir-fried mixed vegetables was next on our list. The combination of long beans, ladies fingers, onions, brinjal and sliced chili was really bursting with flavours in my mouth. I could vividly scent the unmistakable Wok Hei fragrance in the dish which brought back fond memories of home-cooked food by my old folks.The fried chickens were crispy on the outside and succulent on the insideJordan and Jasmine really got excited when they saw the next platter on the table-fried chickens. Obviously these deep-fried chickens were so irresistibly enticing for both of them. I guess no one could fend of the temptation of well-marinated chicken deep-fried to golden crisp perfection right? They were really delectable; Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The moment you sink your teeth into these succulent fried chickens, you could not help but want more! Yes~it will be that insatiable!Chili Crab with mantouLast but not least was the highlight of our dinner at Southern Court Chinese Restaurant. In fact I insisted that we try this cuisine which was highly recommended. Introducing the exquisite Chili Crab with Mantou. Honestly I had never sampled anything quite like this. The luscious chili-coated crab meat together with the distinctive mantou was really rich and scrumptious.\u00a0OMG! This dish was really lip -smacking! It was so good that I almost ordered another one. I am glad that we did try this signature dish of Chef Sum.Let's enjoy our feast at\u00a0Southern Court Chinese RestaurantAll in all, we had a feast at this renowned Southern Court Chinese Restaurant. So if you are staying in Bayview Hotel Melaka, I highly recommend that you pay their in-house Chinese restaurant a visit and try their authentic Szechuan and Cantonese dishes. And don't forget the Chili Crab with Mantou. LOL \ud83d\ude01 It is definitely one of the best rated Halal Chinese restaurants in Melaka. I am looking forward to my next visit for another round of dinner.Southern Court Chinese Restaurant at Bayview Hotel MelakaAddress: Jalan Bendahara, Kampung Bukit China, 75100 Melaka.Opening Hours: Lunch (11:30am-2:00pm); Dinner (7:00pm - 10:30pm)Website:\u00a0bhm.bayviewhotels.comFacebook:\u00a0www.facebook.com/BayviewHotelMelakaInstagram:\u00a0www.instagram.com/bayviewhotel_MelakaEmail:\u00a0bayviewmelaka@bayviewhotels.comTelephone: +6062839888"} {"title": "Bayview Hotel Melaka Review-In The Heart of Melaka", "body": "If you are looking for one of the top best hotels in Melaka for your family or you to stay, then you really need to choose Bayview Hotel Melaka for your next staycation.

In our previous trip to\u00a0Entopia Penang, we were really astounded by the mesmerising Natureland-a beautiful living garden vivarium as well as The Cocoon which is a self discovery learning exhibition. However, you can enjoy an even more intimate close up experience with nature. Yupe! This is another activity in Entopia that I highly recommend everyone to join. Essentially during this Fun Hour, you will be able to get up close and personal with nature both flora and fauna.Fun Hour at Entopia Penang-Crawlies AliveWe are ready to meet the crawlies!The 4 Different Activities of Fun Hour at Entopia PenangThere are altogether 4 different activities of Fun Hour at Entopia Penang that visitors especially family and children can join. You will have the Bug's Kitchen, Bugs Breeder: Backsage, My Butterfly Garden and Crawlies Alive. Each of the Fun Hour activities will be designated on different days. You can visit Entopia's official website to find out what Fun Hour you will be able to enjoy during your next visit to this mystical garden. As for us, our Fun Hour at Entopia revolves around creatures that can crawl...Well! At least most of them. \ud83d\ude02 The following are the information of the 4 different activities that you can take part in:We are listening attentively to the instructionsHonestly we did not know what to expect. It was mentioned that we could pet at least 4 of the Entopia crawlies. Meaning that we could experience close encounters and touch the creatures that are roaming in Entopia. We had not got the slightest clue what our fingers would be touching. For starter, the person in charge explained to us in details about what we would be going through and the first task involves our sense of smell. We were asked to identify the different food inside 3 containers with our nose. This sniffing job might be challenging if you are not exposed to a variety of food for pets.It is time to test your noseFirst easy task would be scents identification*Sniff Sniff*What did you smell?These 3 containers hold food for different the different creatures in EntopiaDuring our session of Fun Hour at Entopia Penang, 5 children took part to get up close and personal with crawlies. Up next was the real task for the day. Each of them (including Jordan and Jasmine) was asked to place their hand inside an aquarium covered black papers. The children were understandably hesitant and perhaps a bit terrified. What if the creatures bit them? The person in charge assured them that it would be perfectly safe. Eventually all the children gritted their teeth and placed their vulnerable hands \"into the unknown\". \ud83d\ude02What do you think are inside these enclosuresDo you dare to reach inside?Jasmine girl was actually quite scared. \ud83d\ude02We were asked to guess what we had touched and obviously no one knew. When the black cover was removed, we were dumbfounded to learn that we had been touching cockroaches *yikes*! Of course we did not touch those pesky, dirty household cockroaches that are infesting our houses. We touched the Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches which were rather adorable. They were of course very huge and surprisingly clean without any unpleasant odor. These wingless Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches will hiss to mate or when they are being aggressive. Interestingly a lot of people across the world keep them as pets.Madagascar Hissing CockroachAren't they adorable?Can we keep one as a pet?The next crawlies that we petted was a pair of Thorny Stick Insect. It was interesting to note the huge female was light green in colour while its smaller and skinny male counterpart was brown in colour. Yours truly me had a fun time, letting them crawl over my body. Since these two thorny stick insects were relatively big and of course thorny, our children were intimidated to allow these insects to crawl on them. Do note that its \"thorns\" can get hooked to your clothes, so make sure you handle them gently. If you love these thorny stick insects, you will be happy to know that they are commonly kept as pets as well.Thorny Stick InsectsCan you guess which is the female and which is the male?It's ok these Thorny Stick Insects won't biteLook at its legsAfter our encounter with the pair of insects, we came face to face with the venomous tarantula. Yeah we were going to touch a tarantula which might sink its fangs to inject venom into our body. BUT...Do not be alarmed as the venom is mild and secondly if you handle the tarantula gently and with respect, everything would be fine. It was quite an amazing experience for us to allow huge spider to crawl on our hand and arms. In fact we were actually more worried about not dropping it off the table as it might get injured.TarantulaYou have to handle a tarantula with extra careJordan boy seemed to be quite comfortable with the tarantulaIt is crawling up your way \ud83d\ude02Make sure you don't touch its abdomen or else...The finale and highlight of the day for our Fun Hour at Entopia Penang was the largest amongst all the crawlies that we had petted. Introducing the Ball Python aka Royal Python which is native to Africa. As it was neither venomous nor thorny, handling the ball python was relatively easier. It felt really surreal and awesome to let the bally python wriggle around your arms, shoulders and neck. You would feel its cold, smooth and silky scales as it wrapped itself around you. It could even double up as a handbag. LOL \ud83d\ude02 Certainly, it would be truly fascinating to have a serpent as your pet, no?Ball Python-The Star for our Fun Hour at EntopiaJordan boy and his new slithering friendJasmine was quite fascinated by the pythonWifey with her new Ball Python HandbagAn adult ball python will usually grow till a maximum of 5 feetHow do you feel Jordan boy?Before we left, we were given a parting gift each-eggs for Thorny Stick insects.

In fact, Entopia Penang is not just a sanctuary for butterflies, but also a paradise for various insects, arachnids, and reptiles just to name a few.Welcome to Entopia PenangDo note that Entopia Penang consists of 2 different worlds!

Yes, I guess you could say that it is one of nature's largest classrooms and discovery hubs that you could stumble upon in Penang.The Natureland of Entopia PenangThe moment we stepped into Entopia, we were already dumbfounded by how enormous this living garden vivarium is. Being the biggest butterfly garden in Malaysia, you will be surrounded by an astounding 15,000 free-flying butterflies at any one time. Made of up to 60 different species, these butterflies fluttered gracefully in the air, inviting us to join them in their whimsical dance.

From the tiny frogs to the supposedly vicious snapping alligator turtles, you will be amazed to get up close to nature's creation. Apart from that, Jordan and Jasmine were very thrilled to see the alien-like horseshoe crabs and the majestic iguanas which were \"sunbathing\" or lamp-bathing.

This year marks the 38th anniversary of 'McD' in our country. The very first Mekdi signage made its debut in Bukit Bintang last year (2019) and now McDonald's Malaysia is proudly\u00a0showing off the 'Mekdi' signage at 16 selected restaurants across various states in our country. Yep! Mekdi is ours-it belongs to all Malaysians. \ud83d\ude19\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis idea of localizing the brand name McDonald's was a way to thank Malaysians for their continuous support for the quick service restaurant chain since it first arrived in our country 38 years ago. So Malaysians have cast their votes to choose their preferred McDonald's restaurants across the country to bear the very Malaysian name for their favourite fast food restaurants. Let's find out which 16 McDonald's restaurants in Malaysia have been given the owner to display the iconic Mekdi signage. I am glad that one of the restaurants in Melaka made it into the list. Woohoo! \ud83d\ude01\n\n\n\n\n\nThe 16 selected 'Mekdi' restaurants nationwide are:\n\no McDonald\u2019s Bukit Bintang\no McDonald\u2019s Titiwangsa\no McDonald\u2019s KLCC\no McDonald\u2019s Putrajaya, Presint 2\no McDonald\u2019s Kuala Selangor\no McDonald\u2019s Greenlane, Penang\no McDonald\u2019s Jln Gopeng, Ipoh, Perak\no McDonald\u2019s Stulang Laut, Johor\no McDonald\u2019s Kulai, Johor\no McDonald\u2019s Kuala Pilah, Negeri Sembilan\no McDonald\u2019s Taman Buaya, Malacca\no McDonald\u2019s Teluk Cempedak, Pahang\no McDonald\u2019s Kota Bahru, Kelantan\no McDonald\u2019s Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu\no McDonald\u2019s Kuching 1, Sarawak\no McDonald\u2019s Api-Api, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah\n\n\n\n\n\nThere is no place like Mekdi for sure!\n\n\n\nOf course we Malaysians love our food very much as well. Just in time to celebrate our Hari Merdeka and Malaysia Day, McDonald's Malaysia has also enhanced our beloved Nasi Lemak. So now you can indulge in your Nasi Lemak McD with side dishes such as Rendang Ayam, Spicy Chicken McDeluxe Cutlet or Grilled Chicken Burger (GCB) Cutlet. OMG! Being a big fan of Nasi Lemak, yours truly have tried all 3 and OMG~they were so unbelievably delicious and the sambal was truly lip-smacking! I don't know about you but my family and I just can't get enough of it. My wife and children absolutely love the new side dishes options.\n\n\n\n\n\nOMG! Nasi Lemak~which one should I indulge in first?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHave you tried the Geng Nasi Lemak at Mekdi?\n\n\n\nInterestingly, McDonald's has also infused local flavours into its dessert menu. Yep! You will be in for a surprise to find out that you can now enjoy the brand new McFlurry Cendol! Unfortunately, I couldn't get to try it as it is out of stock in all McD outlets in Melaka! \ud83d\ude13 Hopefully they will restock this dessert as soon as possible. Apart from that, you can also enjoy Corn Pie and Cendol-flavoured ice cream that will definitely put a smile on your face. I had the Cendol-flavoured sundae and it was truly scrumptious.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Nasi Lemak McD with Spicy Chicken McDeluxe Cutlet\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Nasi Lemak McD with GCB Cutlet\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Nasi Lemak McD with Rendang Ayam\n\n\n\nMore often than not, we Malaysians can identify with McDonald's in almost every single aspect of our life right? This is especially true when we talk about food. It is really heart-warming to know that McDonald's menu has been localised to cater to our Malaysian taste buds with many ingredients being sourced locally. That is why we have the Nasi Lemak menu and sambal that can really whet our appetites. I guess that explains why we truly love all the food from Mekdi right?\n\n\n\n\n\n#GengNasiLemak\n\n\n\nMcDonald's is a company that champions causes that benefits we Malaysians. One such cause is the #KitaBoleh concept which is a nationwide call by McDonald\u2019s Malaysia in March this year \u2013 to herald the silent bravery of the frontliners who continued on their work as Malaysians stayed home during the Movement Control Order (MCO). Obviously the company cares a lot about we Malaysians and our struggle.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith over 14,000 employees in 300 restaurants across the country,\u00a0McDonald\u2019s Malaysia also prioritises talent and skills development among its assets-the valuable workforce. With plans to open 450 stores by 2025, McDonald\u2019s Malaysia has also targeted to add 10,000 more employees to its workforce. This will allow more Malaysians to have job opportunities and career advancement options. This goes to show that the company intends to help nurture local talents and aid them in building meaningful careers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDo take a photo with the new Mekdi signage to celebrate Merdeka & Malaysia Day\n\n\n\nAs we are all aware, McDonald\u2019s Malaysia is also a strong community player. The company is constantly encouraging all its restaurants nationwide to give back to local communities by organising various initiatives such as meal donations to local charities, Teacher\u2019s Day celebrations as well as flood relief efforts. Through Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC), McDonald\u2019s Malaysia continues to support programmes that directly improve the health and well-being of children and their families. Another initiative close to McDonald\u2019s heart is the \u2018Back-to-School\u2019 programme, which has benefitted 53,000 urban poor primary school children since 2017.\n\n\n\n\n\nDon't forget to try the Nasi Lemak McD ok. \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\n\n\nTruth to be told, McDonald's Malaysia has done a lot for we Malaysians. Besides rolling out localised menu that we love, the company is also providing job opportunities as well as giving back to the society through its various meaningful charitable events. So let us do our part now and visit one of the nearest McDonald's Malaysia restaurants to help ourselves to all those glorious Nasi Lemak with its mouth-watering side dishes (Rendang Awam, Spicy Chicken McDeluxe Cutlet or Grilled Chicken Burger (GCB) Cutlet)! You really have to try them all. I know I had.\u00a0\n\n"} {"title": "Hypergear Waterproof Duffel Bag-5 Reasons You Will Love It", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nIntroducing my Hypergear Waterproof Duffel Bag (60L) that I have been using for my vacations, work and even when I hit the basketball court. Yupe! So you can say that this fiery red HyperGear Duffel Bag of mine is basically my multipurpose bag for virtually every occasion. If you were to visit\u00a0 any HyperGear Malaysia's physical stores or its online webstore, you will notice that there are 2 sizes for you to choose from: 40L or 60L. Yours truly me of course picked the latter-the HyperGear Duffel Bag 60L because bigger is always better. Well at least for me. \ud83d\ude1d\n\n\n\n\n5 Reasons Why I Love HyperGear Waterproof Duffel Bag\n\n\nHyperGear Duffel Bag is 100% Waterproof\n\nI enjoy travelling a lot with my family and that's why I need a reliable bag that suits my needs and nature. One of the main reasons why I chose HyperGear Waterproof Duffel Bag as my de facto travelling bag because it is 100% waterproof! Hence I do not have to be worried if it suddenly rains. Hence you can put anything you want inside such as your tablet, smartphone and clothes just to name a few and know that they will not be wet! Heck! It could still float safely when I drop it in water.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n100% waterproof!\n\n\n\n\nIts tried and tested roll-top design ensures that not a single drop of water can find its way into my sealed duffel bag. This gives me total peace of mind. Knowing that everything is in my 100% waterproof bag also means that I can focus on something else like holding the umbrella for my wife and kids. And no more running helter-skelter to find a shelter as my duffel bag is just like me-waterproof! This makes me feel more macho. Ha \ud83d\ude01\n\n\n\n\n\nHUGE Multipurpose Storage For Everything\n\nAnother reason why this HyperGear Waterproof Duffel Bag 60L is my favourite bag is because of its unbelievably huge storage. With 60-litre of space, I can throw in virtually everything in it and I can still seal the bag safely to be waterproof. I could throw in my basketball, my sneakers and loads of clothes inside my duffel bag and there will still be space for more. You can't put a basketball inside a normal hard-sise luggage with wheels that you always drag around right? Being a multipurpose bag, it means I could put whatever my heart desires.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Let's put everything inside!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDurable & Heavy Duty\n\nThis HyperGear Waterproof Duffel Bag is really a dream come true for many outdoor enthusiasts. It doesn't matter what is your mojo be it hiking, fishing, biking or travelling, rest assured that this duffel bag is ultra durable and can be used for any heavy duty outings of yours. Built from high-quality materials such as tarpaulin and world-class buckles, you can't help but feel that this duffel bag can take any beatings and will still come out top and waterproof! I particularly love the Duraflex\u24c7 buckles as they are not only super secure but also feel very tough and durable. Whenever I hear the clicks, I felt really safe and happy. \ud83d\udcaa\ud83d\ude00\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSuper Comfortable and Convenient\n\nContrary to popular belief, a duffel bag is merely for you to store and lug your stuffs around. A lot of people also assume that it would cause discomfort to carry this bag especially when you could store so many things inside. The truth is, it feels super comfortable to carry my HyperGear Duffel Bag around as it is padded to the MAX. Yes! You heard me right. The lush padding really let my shoulder feels comfortable and at times I do not even realise I am carrying my bag. Do you know you can add another Strap Power Up to convert this duffel bag into a backpack (which I did). Hence it is even more comfortable and convenient for me to carry my duffel bag around. I also appreciate the top carry handle which makes it easier for me to move around without restrictions and inhibitions.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReflective Straps To Keep You Safe\nAnother feature of HyperGear that I really need to mention about HyperGear Duffel Bag is the inclusion of reflective straps. So you will be getting one huge reflective strap on each side of the duffel bag to keep you safe and sound. Kudos to the design team for adding this safety feature that could even safe your life. Imagine while you are travelling and walking along a road at night without any street lights, these very reflective straps could potentially save your life from any incoming cars or vehicles. Two thumbs up for HyperGear!\n\n\n\n\nWatch HyperGear Duffel Bag In Action\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere you have it folks! 5 reasons why HyperGear Duffel Bag is the ideal bag for you when you need that extra storage space and flexibility. Besides its incredible waterproof ability, this duffel bag can also be a loyal servant as it is very durable and can be used for virtually any occasions. On top of that, it is also very comfortable to be carried around even for long hours. I also particularly love the fiery red colour of my duffel bag as it is like a fashion statement for me!

The management of Tanjung Point Residences has really ensured that the safety of its guests is its number priority. Security guards and staff took our temperatures and made sure that we sanitize our hands before entering the hotel. While we were lining up to check in, physical distancing was practised as well. It is good to know that we can still have peace of mind while enjoying our holidays.\n\n\n\nTanjung Point Residences boasts amazing sea view\n\n\n\n\nOMG...we were in awe of our beachfront stay!\n\n\nAfter our registration and check-in, we literally rushed to our 2-bedroom apartment as we could not wait to see what our stay for the next 3 days would look like. Honestly, our expectations were really high as we were amazed by the pictures that we saw on the Internet. Once we pushed open our door, we knew that our staycation in Penang will be an unforgettable one. The apartment was so huge and spacious, making us feel so comfortable and at ease. My wife and kids were extremely ecstatic that they could stay in such an incredible place in Penang!\n\n\n\nThe rooms in Tanjung Point Residences are so HUGE!\n\n\n\n\nWifey is waiting for me. \ud83d\ude1d\n\n\n\n\n\nYes. We are all spellbound by the beautiful seaview\n\n\n\n\n\nSpacious and comfortable\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoying my coffee while admiring the breathtaking sea view\n\n\n\n\nDoing my work\n\n\nIn the master bedroom, the plush, super-comfortable mattress was truly a bliss for both my wife and I. Indeed, we had a good night's sleep during our 3 days 2 nights staycation. The wooden floor finishing plus the lush carpeting really made every step in our apartment so much more enjoyable. Even the drapes were so opulent, adding that unmistakable luxurious and romantic touch for the guests. There were even mesh curtains to give you that added privacy if you still want to pull the curtains apart. There is even a TV in our master bedroom for us to watch TV.\n\n\n\nAll the mattresses are so comfy and plushy\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBoth of them are so happy \ud83d\ude01\n\n\nApart from the comfy bed and beautiful interior, the master bedroom has its very own en-suite bathroom which is really ritzy. The elaborate floor tiles really complement the ivory white sink. There is even a huge, wide mirror for all your vanity needs. Be it hot or cold, you can shower to your heart's content with the rainfall shower head that will make you feel unbelievably good. OMG! It felt like a paradise even when you are taking a shower. I had a great time in the bathroom for sure. Ha \ud83d\ude00\n\n\n\nThe bathrooms in Tanjung Point Residences are luxurious\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy and Jasmine girl enjoying their rainfall shower\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan and Jasmine really had a whale of time in their very own huge bedroom as well. Inside, there were 2 equally plush and comfy single mattresses that will make you want to lie down the whole day; Just ask both of them. After jumping on their beds like trampoline (which they shouldn't), both of them happily enjoyed their rapturous shower. Obviously they truly had a great time staying in this beachfront apartment.\n\n\n\nYou will get the\u00a0complete set of kitchenette\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nElectric stove with hood\n\n\n\n\n\nMicrowave and electric kettle\n\n\n\n\nWhat else do you need?\n\n\n\n\nEnjoying our meals at the dining table\n\n\nLike I have aforementioned, staying in Tanjung Point Residences really felt like home to us. If you do not feel like leaving this haven, you can stay indoors all day and cook your own meals thanks to the complete set of kitchenette. There is a big electric stove with hood, toaster, microwave, electric kettle, refrigerator, crockery and all the cutlery that you need. All you have to do is to buy a few ingredients and voila you can cook your meals and start enjoying them in this beautiful and comfortable apartment. *hint* we used the toaster and microwave a lot. \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\nBask in the spacious, comfortable, opulent living area\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nObviously wifey and our babies are really happy.\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are truly, madly, deeply in love with the balcony!\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoying our breakfast near the balcony while enjoying the sea view.\n\n\n\n\n\nWe will never forget this amazing experience.\n\n\nUnlike a hotel, this 2-bedroom apartment of ours at Tanjung Point Residences has a crazy huge separate living area for us to chill in the cozy sofa while watching TV. Yupe! No more being crammed inside one single bedroom like a usual hotel. Hungry for some snacks? Just head over to the dining area to enjoy some quick bites and some coffee (for me). While my wife was preparing breakfast for us, our kids were happily watching cartoons on Astro; Yours truly me was busy doing some work using the blazing fast free complimentary Wi-Fi. In other words, we have so much space to do so many things in this accommodation of ours in Penang.\n\n\n\nTanjung Point Residences boasts an infinity pool right next to the sea\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHaving a splashing time!\n\n\n\n\n\nHonestly it felt so calm swimming in this pool\n\n\n\n\n\nBoth of them enjoying the mesmerizing sea view\n\n\n\n\n\nYou will definitely enjoy yourself here\n\n\n\n\n\nCan we continue to swim?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOne of the best swimming pools that we have ever swum in!\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoy the sea breeze and indulge in the sound of waves crashing on the beach\n\n\nOne of the highlights of staying in Tanjung Point Residences is its enormous breathtaking infinity pool overlooking the stunning beach filled beautiful clouds. Yes! You can swim while admiring the mesmerizing sea view. What is so awesome about this infinity swimming pool is the fact that it is 1 metre deep, allowing both children and adults to fully enjoy their swim. Both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl really, really loved their swimming sessions. However due to the strict SOP, each person could only swim for a maximum of 1 hour and there could only be 20 swimmers at one time in this gigantic infinity pool. They were sad when the security guard ask them to leave.\n\n\n\nExercise right now to the sea\n\n\n\n\nTime to burn off all the extra calories\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoying the view while working out\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStay active even while you are on a vacation\n\n\nStaying in Penang for 3 days had allowed us to savour a lot of delicious food. Being known as the Pearl of the Orient, Penang is a melting pot for cuisines and delicacies from different cultures and countries. Of course we had so many lip-smacking feasts that expanded our waistlines quite a lot. LOL \ud83d\ude01 Fortunately there is a well-equipped gym in Tanjung Point Residences for us to shed away all those extra calories. It was a pleasure to run on the treadmill while taking in the picturesque scenery. I mean it is not every day that you get to lift those dumbbells right next to the sea, right? You will have the multigym, adjustable benches, wellness balls and yoga mats at your disposal. So clock in some workout before going out to enjoy more glorious food.\n\n\n\n\n\nPlayground for the kids\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can also do your laundry here\n\n\n\nThose who plan to stay here for a long period of time will be happy to know that there is a full service laundry to take care of your clothes. Besides there is also a playground for children to have fun besides the huge infinity pool. Those who plan to visit Penang should choose Tanjung Point Residences for you stay or lodging. There are 3 options for you to choose from namely 3-Bedroom Suite, 2-Bedroom Suite and Studio Suite.\n\n\n\nTanjung Point Residences is definitely one of the best places to stay in Penang\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe felt really sad that we had to leave this beautiful and amazing accommodation of ours.\u00a0\u00a0Tanjung Point Residences is so good that we really wanted to extend our 3 Days 2 Nights stay. Unfortunately we had to head back to Melaka for work and for the kids to attend school. Equipped with everything that we need, this is by far one of the best places to stay in Penang if you ask me. You will appreciate the ample space, the huge infinity pool and of course the beautiful sea view that will mesmerize you for hours!

Hence it is about time that kids get to have fun in a playground again right? kidzooona welcomes you back with a whopping 50% discount until 31st of August. Our kids were very elated to be playing again in a huge playground freely. You might be asking, is it safe to play in kidzooona? The answer is a resounding YES!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYay~we can play at kidzooona again but must adhere to the SOP!\n\n\n\nContrary to popular belief, it is actually very safe to bring our children to kidzooona to have fun thanks to their strict SOP and hygiene measures. If you ask me, I honestly believe it is even safer and cleaner for kids to play in kidzooona rather than in the playground in your neighbourhood, right? In fact after bringing both Jordan and Jasmine there last weekend, I can vouch for its safety and cleanliness. The following are the 6 reasons why it is safe for kids to play in kidzooona.\n\n\n\n6 Reasons Why It Is Safe To Play In kidzooona\n\n1. Check Your Body Temperature\n\nEven before children can step into the kidzooona playground, their body temperature will be measured to ensure that they are fit and healthy. The playground assistants will also check the body temperature of accompanying parents or guardians.\n\n\n\n2. Sanitize Your Hands\n\nOnce your body temperature is checked, you will need to sanitize both your hands at the entrance. After you have removed your shoes and ready to play in the playground, the assistants will once again be around to make sure you sanitize your hands. In fact after playing in each station, children need to get their hands sanitized.\n\n\n\n\n\n3. Limited Number of Visitors (Children + Adults)\n\nkidzooona knows that physical distancing is important and that is why only a limited number of children and accompanying parents can be in the playground at the same time. Each visitor will be given a pass card to ensure that the number of visitors at any time in the playground is maintained. This is really good news as it means the playground will not be crowded.\n\n\n\n4. Only 1 Child + 1 Guardian At Each Play Area\n\nThose who have visited kidzooona before knows that there are so many play areas for children to have fun. Children can play pretend to be a doctor, a fireman, a florist or even a chef. However, now only 1 child and 1 guardian will be allowed at each play area at the same time. This is really good news to ensure that physical distancing can be observed while children are still having fun.\n\n\n\n5. Maintain 1 Meter Away Gap\n\nIn kidzooona, visitors need to maintain 1 meter away gap from each other all the time. Besides parents and guardians, the playground assistants will constantly ensure that children will observe the 1 meter rule. Even during the dance session, children will still stand 1 meter apart from each other while dancing.\n\n\n\n6. Toys and Play Equipment Are Constantly Sanitized\n\nAll the toys and play equipment will be sanitized by the assistants once a child has left the play area. This ensures that all the toys and play equipment will be clean to be played by the next visitor. This hygienic measure really gives parents peace of mind while allowing children to enjoy themselves safely in a clean and safe environment.\n\n\n\n\n\nBody temperature is measured\n\n\n\n\n\nSanitize your hands\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration of names and details\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nEach visitor will be given a Check-in Pass\n\n\n\n\n\nSanitize your hands again!\n\n\n\nJordan boy and Jasmine girl were really, really happy to return to kidzooona again to have fun after months of home quarantine. They truly had a whale of a time playing with the different toys available at their disposal. I believe they missed donning the fancy costumes to play pretend as a doctor, a burger maker or a sushi chef. Since only a limited number of children are allowed in the playground, both of them get to play what they love for a longer period of time to their heart' content. Though they were wearing their masks all the time, I could still feel their joy and happiness. I am glad that I brought them there to have fun.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Only 1 child and 1 adult are allowed at each play area\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Make sure you adhere to the SOP while having fun ok\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl prepared sushi for her mommy \ud83d\ude0d\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Each of the play areas will be sanitized once the child leaves\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0kidzooona ensures your children and you are playing in a safe and hygienic environment\n\n\n\nI am impressed with the hygienic measures taken by kidzooona. After a child has done playing in one play area, the child needs to have his or her hands sanitized before going to the next play area.\u00a0 On top of that, the playground assistant will also sanitize the toys and play equipment before allowing another child to have fun in that play area. This is really good as they ensure that all the play areas will be clean and safe all the time. I want to applaud all the playground assistants and the management of kidzooona as they really prioritize our safety.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe playground assistant was playing with Jordan boy\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Always sanitize your hands before going to the next play area\n\n\n\n\n\nDoctor Jordan in the house!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you want a happy meal?\u00a0\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's go extinguish some fiery serpents!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMaintain physical distancing while playing ok! \ud83d\ude0a\n\n\n\nDespite the ongoing Covid-19 threat, we should not deprive our children of their childhood. I am glad and grateful that we have play areas for kids such as kidzooona which provide a safe and clean environment for children to have fun. It is obvious that kidzooona is truly committed to observe to the recommended SOPs and hygienic measures strictly. Hence it really gives me a peace of mind, knowing that my children will be enjoying themselves safely and of course happily in kidzooona.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0If a play area is big enough, 2 children can play together but must maintain physical distancing\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMake sure to maintain 1 meter away gap\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's jump in the trampoline...but must take turn. \ud83d\ude0b\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0It's dancing time!\n\n\n\n\n\nIt makes me happy to see my children being able to play in the open again\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI love to shake it~shake it~\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore leaving, they need to sanitize their hands one last time. \ud83d\ude01\n\n\n\nFor parents who want to bring your children to have fun in a safe and clean environment which follows the SOP strictly, then you need to head over to kidzooona. For the record,\u00a0there are altogether 30 kidzooonas in Malaysia.\u00a0All in all, kidzooona is still one of the best places in Melaka for my kids to play and learn at the same time; Now it is also one of the safest and cleanest! And from now until 31st of August, you will enjoy 50% discount for your admission into kidzooona.

After indulging in so much delicious food at Yue Restaurant, Miyabi Restaurant and Feast Restaurant in the hotel itself, I needed to exercise a little bit. Fortunately there is a fully-equipped gym in the hotel for me to burn some calories before we start our food hunting journey again!\n\n\n\nSheraton Fitness is a fully-equipped world class gym\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0It's time to burn some (a lot of) calories\n\n\nSheraton Fitness is really a gym that can match any of the full-scale commercial gyms around you. In fact it is better than almost all the gyms that I go. The moment I stepped into this gym I was completely flabbergasted to see how well-equipped it was. This world-class gym is provided by Technogym. There were many treadmills, exercise bikes and cross trainers just to name few at your disposal. So you do not need to be worried if there is not enough exercise equipment to work out.\n\n\n\nStay active with Technogym workout equipment in Sheraton PJ Hotel\n\n\n\nCross trainer\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoy breathtaking view while exercising Sheraton Fitness Gym\n\n\nThis Sheraton Fitness is really big, spacious and not to mention really damn clean too! When I was doing my workout, I couldn't help but notice that almost everything in the gym was shiny...meaning that they have been thoroughly cleaned and polished. This really gave me peace of mind knowing that I am exercising in a very hygienic environment. On top of that, it smelled really good in the gym as well~calming and serene. Hence it was really relaxing while I was running on the treadmill while listening to my music.\n\n\n\n\n\nYou will have everything here to keep you active\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI am superman!\n\n\n\n\n\nThis multigym is kinda challenging and interesting\n\n\nInterestingly enough, just like in the outdoor swimming pool nobody was around the gym that morning. I guess those who were staying in this luxurious hotel would rather be in bed rather than sweating right? That's really good as I could ave the gym all to myself (literally). Out of all the gym equipment, my favourite was of course the cutting-edge treadmill. It was the most state-of-the-art treadmill I have even run on in my life with advanced control panel and a huge LCD screen for me cuztomize my exercise. This alone was enough to perk me up and motivate me.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Stay-dry-Towels are provided\n\n\n\n\n\nMost importantly stay hydrated\n\n\nBesides the treadmill, I also had some fun with the robust cross trainer and exercise bike. All the equipment felt really new and well-maintained, making it a fun workout session for anyone. Another excise equipment which really attracted me was the intimidating multigym. If I could use this every day I would become a hulk. LOL \ud83d\ude02 There were also a lot of dumbbells, adjustable benches and wellness balls for you to have a variety of workouts. This gym is indeed full-equipped!\n\n\n\n\n\nSheraton Fitness Gym lets you exercise at the \"top of the world\".\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOne extra bonus of exercising in Sheraton Fitness is its amazing view. Similar to the rooftop infinity pool, this gym is also located on the 33rd level of Sheraton PJ Hotel. This means you will be getting a beautiful, panoramic view while exercising which can really be therapeutic. That's the privilege of exercising \"on cloud nine\" right? Forget to bring your bottle of water to re-hydrate yourself? No worries as there is a water dispenser available for free-flow of sky juice. Need a towel to wipe your dripping sweat? The gym has got it covered with the available towels at the entrance. So if you are staying in Sheraton PJ Hotel, make sure you take advantage of this gym. It is open 24 hours~7 days a week!\n"} {"title": "Rooftop Infinity Pool On The 33rd Level Of Sheraton PJ Hotel", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nBesides delicious food and a good night's sleep, I believe a great hotel should also have an equally amazing swimming pool. How about a swimming pool on the 33rd floor with breathtaking view and cool, fresh air? That is exactly where you will be having a dip and splashing water when you are staying in Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel. So far this rooftop infinity pool is the highest swimming pool I have ever swum in my entire life.\n\n\n\n\nThe swimming pool of Sheraton PJ Hotel is on the 33rd Level\n\n\n\nLet's have our morning swim\n\n\n\n\nOn the second day of our stay, we decided to have a morning swim first instead of enjoying our lip smacking\u00a0breakfast buffet. When we first arrived, nobody was in or near the swimming pool. Guess everyone was sound asleep or busy digging in the glorious food at the breakfast buffet. Ecstatic, I immediately jumped into the infinity pool and swam for a bit while Jordan and Jasmine were having a splashing good time in the kids pool.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMommy was always watching over them \ud83d\ude00\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDid you guys have fun?\n\n\n\n\nSince it was still early, I was really awestruck by the spectacular view on the 33rd floor while dipping in the infinity pool. Perching on the top of Sheraton PJ Hotel, rest assured that you will be getting a bird's eye view of everything around the hotel. One could see the beautiful city of Petaling Jaya and as far as Kuala Lumpur. Yours truly me really enjoyed the stunning scene with majestic skyscrapers touching the blue skies while the sun rays piercing through the fascinating clouds. At that moment, I felt that time had stood still.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy wanted to try swimming in the adult pool\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJasmine girl as well\n\n\n\n\nOver at the kids pool, my 2 little big babies were having a whale of time swimming in the shallow pool. Kids will always love swimming right? Even though they are not really swimming. Ha :D It was really relaxing when we could breathe in the fresh, invigorating air while the gentle breeze caressed our faces. After doing a few laps, I chilled in one of the loungers while taking in the magnificent scenery for one last time. Looking at my children having fun with their mother at the kid's pool was really priceless as well. Guess this is the feeling when you get while having a vacation. \ud83d\ude0a\n\n\n\nOne can enjoy stunning view of the city from the swimming pool\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Breathtaking view of the whole city\n\n\n\n\n\nThe swimming pool is equipped with loungers, chairs and tables for you to chill out\n\n\n\n\n\nYours truly me chilling out\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nI don't mind sitting here all day to enjoy the view\n\n\n\n\nAfter around half an hour, we cleaned ourselves up before changing into our clothes. After that? Or course we headed to have our scrumptious\u00a0 breakfast buffet that the hotel has already provided for us. More smoked duck and sausages? All in all we certainly had a great time in the swimming pools on the 33rd floor of Sheraton PJ Hotel. The whole experience was really unforgettable thanks to the view and the fact that no one else was present. It is the highest place we have swum so far. How about you?\n\n\nOpening Hours: 7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. daily\nTowels are provided\n\n\n\n\nThe beautiful view from the 33rd level of Sheraton PJ Hotel (Click to enlarge)\n\n"} {"title": "Breakfast Buffet at Sheraton PJ That You Cannot Stop Eating", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nAfter having a good night's sleep at Sheraton PJ Hotel thanks to its luxurious Signature Sleep Experience, we headed the hotel's restaurant to fill our growling tummies. We were really looking forward to enjoying our breakfast buffet at Feast at Sheraton PJ. Expectations were really high after our scrumptious feast at Yue Restaurant and Miyabi Restaurant respectively. So did our breakfast buffet at Feast @ Sheraton PJ meet our high expectations? Let's find out.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready for your breakfast buffet at Sheraton PJ?\n\n\n\n\nFor the uninitiated, Feast is Sheraton PJ's modern signature restaurant which showcases international flavours at an extensive buffets with a range of visually stunning displays in beautiful colours and textures. Hence\u00a0at the Feast @ Sheraton PJ you can enjoy breakfast buffet, lunch buffet and dinner buffet\u00a0or in other words everything! We started our morning with their mouth-watering spread of breakfast buffet of course. When we arrived at the Feast, there were already a lot of other guests busy filling their plates with glorious food. Thankfully the restaurant was really, really big; It was spacious and there were still many vacant seats. Once we have settled down, off we went to grab our empty plates. \ud83d\ude01\n\n\n\n\nBreakfast Buffet at Sheraton PJ is one of the best in KL and PJ\n\n\n\n\nWhat bread would you like?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDonuts and croissants\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nGlutten-free cakes~how thoughtful\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Cereals for the kids or maybe you \ud83d\ude04\n\n\n\n\n\nBread pudding which was surprisingly good\n\n\n\n\nSince we were having breakfast, you could expect an assortment of breads that you would not even know where to start digging. There were also around 10 jars of spread for you to smack on your breads ranging from jam to honey. I think Feast @ Sheraton PJ was really courteous and thoughtful as they even prepared gluten-free options for those who need it. There were also lots of colourful donuts and different choices of croissants for you to savour. Kids will love the various cereals in jars along with a plethora of dried fruits and nuts. Interestingly the restaurant also provided hot oatmeal and bread pudding\u00a0which was made from stale bread, milk and egg.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChinese Fried Rice,\u00a0 Mee Mamak and Nasi Lemak\n\n\n\n\n\nHow about a bowl of Noodles?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow do you like your eggs?\n\n\n\n\nFor those who prefer heavier meals for their breakfast there were other oriental stalls with familiar local cuisines that they would make them happy such as Chinese Fried Rice, Mee Mamak and of course Nasi Lemak. Top them up with onion sambal, tomato chicken, prawn curry and usual condiments for Nasi Lemak. Want to try something else? You can also choose from Steamed Japanese Rice, Miso Soup and Salt-baked Saba Macarel just to name a few. Those who wish to grab a few spoons of noodles can head over to the noodles station. The egg station is a heaven for egg lovers there were just so many different versions of eggs for you to try. Do you want omelette, scrambled egg or poached egg?\n\n\n\n\n\nCongee with its various condiments\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWe Asians love dim sum\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEnjoy 5 different cheese for your breakfast at Sheraton PJ\n\n\n\nWant something lighter for your breakfast? How about Chicken congee or maybe just plain congee. Of course you could spice your porridge up with the available condiments. There were also dim sum and local kuih for those who prefer traditional fix for their breakfast. If you want something crunchy and cheesy at the same time, grab a few cookies and spread them with the 5 different cheeses available. There were Cheddar Cheese, Edam Cheese, Blue Cheese, Emmental Cheese and Camembert Cheese for you to choose from. It was quite an exotic display of cheese if you ask me. After all, it is not like every day you will get to taste 5 different cheese at one go right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor those who love salads\n\n\n\n\nHealth conscious diners could choose to fill up their hungry stomachs with salads and spice things up with the other special condiments that were just beside their leafy greens. Unfortunately I am not really into vegetables. Yours truly me prefer meatier breakfast such as chicken ham, smoked duck slices, smoked salmon and lots of sausages of course. I must say that the smoked duck slices were to die for-every bite was so sinfully delicious, succulent and flavourful. I couldn't get enough of the smoke duck slices which melted in my mouth. Awww....\ud83d\ude18\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChicken hams, smoked duck slices and smoke salmons *drooling*\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at how happy Jasmine girl was\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHow can get enough of sausages?\n\n\n\n\nHow about desserts for breakfast buffet at Sheraton PJ?

At Feast, my family and I really had an unforgettable breakfast that we could not get enough of. It is a shame that we only have one stomach to enjoy the glorious food. I am looking forward to trying Sheraton PJ buffet lunch and buffet dinner as well. Judging by our dining experience at Yue (Cantonese Luncheon), Miyabi (Omakase Dining) and now breakfast buffet at Feast, I am sure their luncheon and dinner will be equally amazing.\n\n\n\nBreakfast Buffet at Sheraton PJ offers glorious spread for your family\n\n\n\n\nWhen my family is happy, it is priceless.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nChicken ham and sausages!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDonuts, kuih and roti canai\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0My wife gave her nod of approval for this breakfast buffet at Sheraton PJ\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy enjoying his chawanmushi\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen you are too full and yet you can't stop eating because the food is too damn good!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's dig in!\n\nFeast at Sheraton Petaling Jaya\n\nAddress:\u00a0Level 3A, Sheraton Petaling Jaya Hotel, Jalan Utara C, 46200 Petaling Jaya, Selangor.\n\nBusiness hours:\u00a012PM \u2013 2.30PM (lunch), 6.30PM \u2013 10.30PM (dinner)\n\nWebsite:\u00a0https://www.marriott.com/hotels/hotel-information/restaurant/\n\nContact Number:\u00a0+603-7622 8888\n\n"} {"title": "Miyabi Sheraton PJ-Omakase at Its Best", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nI have always heard how amazing the Omakase is at Miyabi Sheraton Petaling Jaya. My scrumptious luncheon at Yue at Sheraton PJ tells me that this Japanese restaurant will be even better!\u00a0\u00a0After trying their Omakase prepared exclusively by their Japanese chef-Mr. Tetsuya Yanagida, I must admit that this is the best Omakase I have ever savoured in my life! So if you are looking for one of the best Japanese restaurants in PJ, then you really need to head over to Miyabi Sheraton PJ. This upscale Japanese restaurant serves the usual multi-course\u00a0kaiseki (\u61d0\u77f3) such as Sushi, Sashimi and Teppanyaki just to name a few.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan you feel the zen vibe emanated by the decor at Miyabi Sheraton PJ?\n\n\n\n\n\nSushi bar and live cooking station\n\n\n\n\nAlternatively you could choose Omakase dining experience at Miyabi Sheraton PJ. What is Omakase? Simply put, Omakase means \"I will leave it to you (the chef)\" to decide what Japanese food to cook, prepare and serve. In other words, the chef's creativity and culinary skills will come into play as he prepares the sushi. Hence I was really honoured that Chef Tetsuya Yanagida personally served me with his award-winning Omakase Sushi! It is not like everyday that you will be served fresh Sushi by a Japanese chef right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida will be preparing my authentic Omakase\n\n\n\nWhile waiting for my dinner I happily made myself at home in Miyabi Sheraton PJ. For the uninitiated, \"Miyabi\" means elegance and that is really evident in the opulent and yet cozy decorations of the restaurant.\u00a0I love the zen vibe that this restaurant exudes with minimalist design complemented by clean lines, natural stones and lots of woods. From the arrangement of the plates and cutlery to the well-folded napkins; Everything in Miyabi looks immaculately divine. For a moment, it feels like you are actually in Japan!\n\n\n\n\nCan't wait to see the chef showcasing his culinary skills\n\n\n\n\nWhile I was admiring the rich decor, I heard someone calling, \"Chris San!\" I turned around and there he was, holding my first plate of authentic Japanese cuisine for that night. Chef Tetsuya Yanagida presented my appetizer-Asparagus Goma-ae which was a quick green snack to get me started on my Omakase journey for the evening. The boiled asparagus which was coated with premium sesame sauce was really fresh and crispy. Who would have thought that vegetables could be this appealing to my palate huh! Besides some green goodness, my appetizer also consisted of the\u00a0mystifying Tatami Iwashi (dried Japanese baby sardines sheet)\u00a0which I actually had a second look. It was rather interesting to marvel at the intricate mesh of baby sardines intertwining to form a piece of art-like kite. The texture was crunchy and piquant. Dipping it into the sesame sauce and you will get a whole different sensation in your mouth.\n\n\n\n\nAsparagus Goma-ae (Boiled asparagus with sesame sauce)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTatami Iwashi (Dried Japanese Baby Sardine Sheet)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy next platter was the\u00a0exquisite Sashimi consisting of luscious Kanpachi, Toro, Hokkaido hotate and Fuedai. I am flattered to be served by exceptional quality sashimi that were made of amberjack, tuna, scallop and red snapper. The sashimi were unbelievably fresh and savory. Every single bite felt so rich and creamy, bursting with the sashimi's very own original flavour. Honestly speaking, I had ever never tasted sashimi as fresh as the ones in Miyabi thanks to its weekly sashimi shipment. Add a bit of freshly ground wasabi to your sashimi and your taste buds will be dancing in delight! This sashimi platter is highly recommended and it will surely give you that orgasmic\u00a0ASMR sensation!\n\n\n\n\n\nIt felt so good to have a Japanese chef preparing your Omakase\n\n\n\n\n\nKanpachi, Toro, Hokkaido Hotate, Fuedai Sashimi\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFreshly ground wasabi\n\n\n\n\nJapanese Clear Soup\n\n\nAfter enjoying my Sashimi, Chef Yanagida prepared a bowl of Japanese Clear Soup to help me get ready for my next Agemono dish. Introducing Avocado Sakura-ebi Kaki-age tempura which is a fusion between Avocado and Sakura baby shrimp. Dipping this battered and deep fried mashed avocado and cherry blossom really gave me that tingling sensation in my mouth. Despite being coated by a layer of batter, I could still taste the unmistakable buttery texture of the rich and nutty avocado. The sakura baby shrimp used in the tempura really added a different layer of savory aftertaste which made this Agemono really unique.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAvocado Sakura-ebi Kaki-age Tempura\n\n\n\nFusion between avocado and Sakura baby shrimp\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida then continued to prepare my Yakimono platter while I was admiring him strutting his stuff right before my eyes. The next that I got to delight in was the Grilled Ikejime Barramundi with Kyoto Miso. This grilled big eye tuna belly with sea salt was not only very presentable, but also very titillating. It was well-seasoned and grilled to perfection, with the juice of the fish still masterfully locked inside the dainty tuna fillet. I wouldn't mind having a few more servings.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrilled Ikejime Barramundi with Kyoto Miso\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe highlight of my Omakase dining at Miyabi Sheraton PJ has got to be this showstopper-Nigiri assortment. Behold my amazing Nigiri Sushi dishes with slices of fresh Kanpachi (Amberjack), Big eye tuna belly, Chutoro tuna belly, sweet Amaebi (prawn) and Mizu-dako (Octopus). When Chef Yanagida presented my Nigiri Sushi to me, I laid it on the table and was actually awestruck by what I would be indulging in. It was not like every day I could savour such sumptuously divine Nigiri Sushi right? Every grain of the vinegary pearl rice really complemented the freshness and sweet aroma of the sashimi. They were really creamy, rich and smooth! Add some wasabi and soy sauce and you would get a whole different experience in your mouth. Goodness!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida presenting the highlight of my Omakase at Miyabi Sheraton PJ\n\n\n\n\n\nNigiri Kanpachi, Toro, Amaebi & Mizu-dako\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhich one of these Nigiri Sushi will you try first?\n\n\n\nJust when I thought that my Nigiri platter was (supposedly) the last of my luxurious main course for the day, the affectionate Chef Yanagida surprised me with yet another sushi! He handed a Chopped bluefin tuna belly with leek hand roll sushi to a gleeful me *Yay!*. Well! One can never get enough of sinfully tempting authentic Japanese food right? Now I know why sushi lovers swear by bluefin tuna and vinegar pearl rice. I felt like a child again being able to eat this hand roll sushi.\n\n\n\n\nChopped Bluefin Tuna Belly With Leek Hand Roll Sushi\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDessert: Chitose Strawberry Cake & Fruit\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvery great gastronomical journey will have an equally awesome ending. The fitting unforgettable epilogue of my breathtaking Omakase dining experience in Miyabi Sheraton PJ was the heavenly\u00a0 Chitose Strawberry cake and fruits. This plate of nectarious dessert really put an icing on the already incredible omakase dining experience at Miyabi Sheraton PJ! Out of the sudden, Chef Yanagi appeared right before me and gave me a few Sushi Gummy Lollipops for my children. He knew that my kids could not tag along and hence wanted me to pass these candies to my them. Top notch hospitality and unbelievable courtesy from this Japanese chef! Another brownie point for sure.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChef Tetsuya Yanagida was very warm, funny and generous!\n\n\n\n\n\nI had hot green tea and Cappuccino but nothing beats...\n\n\n\n\nWhile I was enjoying my Omakase Sushi, I also ordered a bottle of artisanal Miyabi sake (rice wine). Served hot, every sip of this Miyabi sake was alluring. I particularly loved its sweet, refreshing scent with a hint of bitterness which really complemented its crisp aftertaste. An attentive waiter was constantly helping me to reheat my sake so that it would always be at the right temperature when I wanted my next sip. Hence, I highly recommend drinking sake while you are enjoying your Omakase sushi in Miyabi Sheraton PJ. It will really elevate your whole dining experience while you bask in its ethereal ambiance. Perhaps the sake made me tipsy a little bit. \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy hot bottle of artisanal Miyabi sake\n\n\n\n\nI think I am a bit tipsy now...\n\n\n\n\nSake really made all my sushi taste better!\n\n\n\nAll in all my Omakase dining in Miyabi Sheraton PJ was truly a feast fit for a King and an experience that I would never ever forget. Again I want to thank the meticulous Chef Tetsuya Yanagida for preparing such astonishing Omakase sushi for me. It was a luxurious treat indeed and it was worth every single dime.

Introducing Yue @ Sheraton Petaling Jaya which is an award-winning Chinese restaurant specializing in Cantonese cuisines. Being a food lover myself, I am thrilled to be able to savour such delectable dishes in Yue. If you are looking for one of the best Chinese restaurants in PJ to satiate your palate, then Yue @ Sheraton PJ is the one for you.\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo after checking in at our luxurious Executive Deluxe King room, we headed to Yue Chinese Restaurant to have our lunch. We were ushered into a huge special private dining room to enjoy our luncheon. Everything in the restaurant has been immaculately planned right from the elegant oriental decorations to the beautiful city views. There is an LCD TV if you want to watch something or probably for your karaoke session. The walls of this private dining room have been well sound-proofed for you to enjoy your chic-chatting or boisterous peals of laughter.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter hours of travelling, we are glad to be greeted by the warm and friendly waiter who handed us the menu. Honestly there were so many cuisines to choose from at Yue Sheraton Petaling Jaya. After much consideration and flipping of pages, we eventually chose Yue's 5-course Cherry Blossom Set Menu. We cheerfully basked in the cozy zen ambiance of the restaurant. The whole atmosphere was so pleasant thanks to its traditional music playing at the back which truly complemented the rich Chinese decorations in our dining room.\n\n\n\n\nChef's Special double boiled Chinese herbal soup served in a teapot!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe first cuisine from our to be served was the highly rated Chef's Special double boiled Chinese herbal soup served in a teapot! We were delighted to find a huge luscious abalone together with tender black chicken and aromatic cordyceps flower. The broth was so thick and fragrant, making it very flavourful and scrumptious. My wife and daughter really enjoyed this exquisite nourishing dish that really whetted their appetite. This is one of the must-try cuisine in Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya. I am glad that I ordered two sets of it.\n\n\n\n\nImperial Smoked Duck wrapped in egg pancake and Peking Sauce\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur next dish was the delightful Imperial Smoked Duck wrapped in egg pancake and Peking Sauce! The smoked duck was so delicate and gratifying that it will melt in your mouth the moment you have a bite. The well seasoned duck meat together with the thin and tasty egg pancake really tantalized my taste buds. Top it with the distinctive Peking sauce and your mouth will be bursting with flavour that you will not forget to quite a long time! I wish I could have more!\n\n\n\n\nBaked cod fish topped with wasabi and chef's special sauce\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you are someone who prefer seafood, then you will relish the baked cod fish topped with wasabi and chef's special sauce. The baked cod fish was cooked to perfection. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I could have sworn that the meat of cod fish was unbelievably creamy and smooth in my gaping mouth. The chef's special sauce made all the difference with a hint of zest and tempting zing. Of course we enjoyed the mushrooms and snappy asparagus as well.\n\n\n\n\nFried rice with egg white and crispy scallops\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fried rice is certainly \"more than meets the eye\"\n\n\n\nAs the saying goes no Chinese banquet is complete without the presence of rice right? Our next dish was fried rice with egg white and crispy scallops. Every grain of the rice was mellow and fragrant the way it should be. One could immediately taste the unmistakable \"wok hey\" in the fried rice. The egg white and crispy scallops elevated the flavour of rice and gave the dish more texture. Glad we had rice to eat together with our other dishes.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChilled fresh mango cream with milk and sago\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLast but not least, our desserts were served to round of our luncheon. Nothing beat having chilled fresh mango cream with milk and sago as your desserts. We also added another bowl of Matcha Ice Cream for ourselves to enjoy. Aww...these desserts were really luscious, heavenly and gratifying to say the least! We particularly loved how fresh and creamy our desserts were. OMG~we wish we could have a few more servings of these nectarous desserts.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll in all we really had a pleasant and fulfilling feast at Yue. All the food served felt like Chinese New Year menus to me. It was a satisfying gastronomical journey for my family and I. Our tummies were happily filled and our moods were of course brightened for the whole day. If you are in PJ or KL, looking for great Chinese restaurants to dine in, then I highly recommend this Yue at Sheraton Petaling Jaya.

Enter Seagate Backup Plus Portable\u00a0which I have honestly reviewed. It is amazingly fast, safe, boasts high capacity and of course reliable. My work revolves heavily around laptops and computers a lot and that is why I got myself a Seagate Backup Plus Portable 4TB to be my faithful companion to store my work-related documents, powerpoint presentations as well as my priceless family photos and videos.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5 Reasons Why Seagate Backup Plus Portable 4TB Is The Best Portable Hard Drive\n\n\n\n\n\n1. Massive Storage Space-4TB\n\n\nAfter using my Seagate Backup Plus Portable for almost a month, I can safely vouch that it is the best portable hard drive that I have used to date. Firstly I am in love with its massive 4TB of storage that allows me to store virtually anything I can think of. For the record, 4TB of storage could easily fit in a whopping 500 DVDs. Of course I do not store movies. Instead I am using it to keep my precious family photos and videos which usually will take up a lot of storage on our smartphones.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is a huge capacity external hard drive with 4TB of storage space\n\n\n\n\nAfter I have transferred 10 years of photos and videos from my the micoSD cards of my smartphones (mine including my wife's) as backup in my Seagate Backup Plus Portable, I still have around 3.3TB of storage to spare. That means I can easily store another 20 years of photos and videos all in one place in my 4TB Seagate Backup Plus Portable. This is important as I do not need to invest in multiple hard drive storage. So if you ask me, massive storage capacity is indeed one of the most important criteria when it comes to hard drive selection.\n\n\n\n\n2. Light & Portable\n\n\nDespite having a huge storage capacity of 4TB, the Seagate Backup Plus Portable is still very light and portable for me to carry around and slip into my bag. It is a myth that huge storage equals to thick and bulky portable hard drive. My 4TB portable hard drive tips the scale at a mere 265grams,\u00a0making it very light and easy for me to bring around without really noticing it is there in the first place. In terms of dimension, it has a measurement of 11.5cm x 2cm x 8cm which is very pocket-able and can fit any bag of yours without taking much space.\n\n\n\n\n\nSeagate Backup Plus Portable compact and light\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can bring it around easily and conveniently\n\n\n\n\n\n3. Ultra Fast Transfer Speed\n\n\nWhen it comes to transfer of files between computers and laptops, it is very important to choose a fast portable hard drive. Nobody wants to sit and stare at the screen for a long period of time, waiting for the files transfer to complete. I am happy to claim that this Seagate Backup Plus Portable is very, very fast, transferring my photos and videos in a jiffy without any hiccup. Its high-performance reading and writing speed allows me to edit my documents, photos and even videos directly from the hard drive itself. So no more hassle to copy any files from the hard drive and paste in my computer for editing before re-copying and re-pasting the files back into the hard drive. Phew!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUSB 3.0 ready to\u00a0 transfer you files, photos, videos in a flash!\n\n\n\n\nThis Seagate Backup Plus Portable is USB 3.0 ready, Do you know that USB 3.0 can transfer files 10 times faster than a normal USB 2.0? So you can do the maths. As more and more computers and laptops start supporting USB 3.0, it means I can easily hook it up to any computers or laptops be it Windows or Mac computers to transfer my files at lightning face speed. So you can work with different computers which use different operating systems and can still transfer files, photos and back up your important work to your portable hard drive. I am really enjoying this convenience.\n\n\n\n\n4. Durable Build Quality\n\n\nYour portable hard drive will be your companion for work and play for quite a long time, hence it makes perfect sense to invest in one that can go the extra mile. Your portable hard drive will also need to withstand wear and tear from being handled and carried around in bag a lot. Luckily, this Backup Plus Portable from Seagate ticks all the boxes and is definitely durable enough to take a few knocks without leaving any dents or scratches. In fact it feels really solid and sturdy, which is important to me, knowing that the case will not break easily. The best part is, it comes with a classy Gold polished aluminium finish which certainly makes it look very premium indeed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDurable and premium build quality\n\n\n\n\n\n5. Automatic Backup & Folders Mirroring\n\n\nAutomatic backup is absolutely one of the most important features for me when I purchase a portable hard drive. Seagate Backup Plus Portable comes with easy-to-use software tools which allows you to automatically back up your important files and priceless family photos and videos. You can schedule your backups either on a hourly, daily, weekly or even monthly basis. Total peace of mind of you ask me. Alternatively you can of course back up on demand with just one click. I am also in love with the Folders Mirroring feature which is truly a God-sent tool. Now whenever I create a PowerPoint presentation or Word Document in my Work Folder, it will automatically be mirrored to the identical folder in my portable hard drive. How cool is that right?\n\n\n\n\n\nYou will love the automatic backup and folders mirroring features\n\n\n\n\nSeagate Backup Plus Portable 4TB is the best external hard drive that I have ever used\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatch my video review of Seagate Backup Plus Portable 4TB\n\nMy Verdict On Seagate Backup Plus Portable\n\n\nIf you are looking for the best portable hard drive that is really reliable, then this is the external hard drive for you. Even though it packs high-capacity storage, it is still relatively light and compact, making it highly portable and convenient for you to use and bring around daily whether to the office or a nice cafe downtown. You will not even really notice it is in your bag. On top of that, it is also one of the fastest external hard drives that I have used and its durable build quality really gives me peace of mind when I am storing my important data in it.\n\n\n\n\n\nSeagate Backup Plus Portable 4TB is the best external hard drive for me\n\n\nBesides providing 2 years of warranty, Seagate is also generous enough to throw in a Bonus-Adobe Creative Cloud Photography Plan, for you to edit your photos.

Then again travelling almost 2 hours might be a bit of a stretch for us hence my wife has decided to make our very own tiramisu cake. We got ourselves a premium mixer from Innofood to make sure that our tiramisu cake can be perfectly done.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Behold our latest kitchen gadget-Innofood Professional Series Stand Mixer\n\n\n\n\n\nInnofood KT-7600 Professional Series Stand Mixer (Jade Blue)\n\n\n\nMaking our own Tiramisu cake was actually not that difficult at all. You just need to prepare the ingredients and of course the required equipment (Mixer) to do so. Knowing that we need to really mix the main ingredients well, I am glad that we have our highly rated Innofood KT-7600 Professional Series Stand Mixer (7.0 Litre) to get the job done like a pro (a~hem). So let's get started shall we? Firstly we need to gather the ingredients. So what do we need?\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0The baker in the house \ud83d\ude00\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan and Jasmine have got the ingredients ready!\n\n\n\nIngredients Needed To Make Tiramisu Cake\n\n\n\n500 grams of cream cheese (softened)\n\n1 cup of granulated sugar\n\n1 tablespoon of vanilla extract\n\n2 cups of whipping cream\n\n2 packs of ladyfingers biscuits\n\n1 cup of cold black coffee\n\n1/4 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder\n\n\n\n\n\nDo note that this version of Tiramisu cake that my wife had made was without the usual mascarpone cheese and eggs. Instead we used cream cheese as the substitute and it was equally creamy and delicious to say the least. Now let's start making our Tiramisu cake shall we?\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's begin\n\n\n\nTiramisu Cake Recipe Step-by-step\n\n\nBy using the mixer, whisk the 2 cups of whipping cream at high speed until it is creamy and even. Then store it in the fridge.\nAgain use your mixer to whisk your 500 grams of cream cheese at medium speed first. Continue until it is creamy.\nGradually add sugar to the whisked cream cheese and then change the mixer's speed to high speed.\nAdd vanilla extract and continue to whisk the mixed ingredients until it is super creamy, smooth and well combined.\nAdd the whipping cream to the mixture and mix them well manually until the mixture is well blended together.\nThe mixture will be ready once it is creamy and smooth without any presence of lumps or clustering. This can only be achieved by whisking the whipping cream well and mixing the cream cheese and other ingredients perfectly (Thanks to my Innofood Stand Mixer \ud83d\ude04)\nThen you can dip the ladyfingers into the chilled/cold coffee very briefly and immediately arrange them in a tray nicely. Remember that you should not dip the ladyfingers too long or they will become soggy later.\nAfter adding one layer of the coffee-soaked ladyfingers, add the mixed ingredients onto the ladyfingers. Make sure you spread the ingredients evenly to cover to layer of ladyfingers.\nAdd another layer of ladyfingers before spreading another layer of the mixed ingredients on top.\nThe next step will be the \"icing\" on the cake by adding unsweetened cocoa powder on top of the mixed ingredients.\u00a0\nLast but not least, store your tiramisu cake in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight.\nVoila~your tiramisu cake is ready.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0First whisk the whipping cream\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Look at the mixed ingredients so smooth~thanks to our Innofood stand mixer\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Next let's lay our ladyfingers\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Dipped those \"fingers\" in the chilled coffee quickly\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Now to add our mixed ingredients on top of the ladyfingers\n\n\n\n\n\nCovering the second layer of ladyfingers\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Almost there \ud83d\ude0b\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Evenly spread the ingredients to make flawless looking Tiramisu cake\n\n\n\n\n\nThe final touches with cocoa powder\n\n\n\nHonestly speaking this Tiramisu cake that my wife had made is almost as good as the ones that we usually have at cafes (if not better \ud83d\ude0b). I particularly love the texture and flavour of the cake thanks to the well-mixed ingredients. That is why it is important to make sure that you are using a reliable mixer that can do everything that you need in your kitchen when you bake cookies and cakes that your family will surely be drooling of. That is why yours truly me highly recommend Innofood Professional Series Stand Mixer.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Ta~our Tiramisu Cake is ready\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter being stored in the refrigerator for 6 hours\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nDo you want a slice of our homemade cake? \ud83d\ude0a\n\n\n\n6 Reasons to Choose Innofood Professional Series Stand Mixer\n\n\n\n1.

So you will not waste time cleaning and instead spend more time baking those cookies that your family love.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe \"Silent\" stand mixer\n\n\n\n6. Ultra Low Noise Level: How many of you could not bake at home because your mixer will be making loud noises that will wake your babies or toddlers up? Fret not~if you are using Innofood Mixer, the noise level produced is merely 60dB or lesser. So you can hit the switch and start whisking your eggs.\n\n\n\n\nWatch How We Made Our Tiramisu Cake\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll in all, my wife is really happy to finally have her very own premium mixer that can do everything for her.

Like it or not play is not a luxury, in fact it is a necessity for our children. Hence my wife and I have always believed that our Jordan boy and Jasmine girl need the freedom and time to play. After all, play gives both of them the opportunity to practise what they have learnt in school. Having said so, it is important that our kids get to play outside of their comfort zone but at the same time being safe and sound. That is why we have chosen Kidzooona Aeon Melaka to be the place for our kids to play and learn.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to Kidzooona Aeon Bandaraya Melaka\n\n\n\nJust the other day, we had visited Kidzooona Aeon Melaka...AGAIN as both Jordan and Jasmine had been pestering me for quite some time. We were really taken aback as Kidzooona has brought in lots of brand NEW toys, play equipment and some fancy costumes for our kids to really enjoy themselves (which they did). This goes to show that they are really committed to providing quality play time for kids with the latest toys and play equipment. Kudos Kidzooona! :)\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready to play & learn?\n\n\n\nDo you know that Kidzooona is actually from Japan? Yep~the hands-on concept found here is actually form the Land of the Rising Sun and this provides children with unique educational play experience that will surely stimulate and encourage them to grow and acquire new knowledge plus valuable skills. Parents will be quick to realize that this is one of the best environments that they can allow their little ones to play where learning, socializing and being active are constantly happening naturally. Let's play!\n\n\n\n\n\nChildren get to wear costumes to make their experience more realistic. :)\n\n\n\nThe moment you arrive at Kidzooona, you can store your sandals or shoes in a basket and place them\u00a0 neatly in a designated place (this is Japanese culture for you). Ouh~please bear in mind that you need to wear stockings all the time while you are in Kidzooona as the place is meant to be spic and span all the time. Before you actually start to play, you will need to sanitize your hands with the provided sanitizer. This goes to show that cleanliness and hygiene is really a top priority for Kidzooona, which of course earns bonus points from parents like me as we all want to ensure that our kids are playing in a clean and healthy environment right?\n\n\n\n\n\nMommy was their first customer\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Here's your ice cream\n\n\n\n\n\nSo what's your flavour?\n\n\n\n\nJordan & Jasmine the ice cream sellers.\n\n\n\nHonestly speaking we really didn't know where to start as there were so many new toys and play equipment to have fun with. So we actually advised both of them to go from one station to the other in the Role Play Town to ensure that they got to try everything. First up was ice cream stall where they could dress up as ice cream sellers and scoop different flavours of ice cream for their customer-A~hem-their beloved mother. Ouh did I mention that you could add different condiments and toppings as well? :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho wants some Tokoyaki?\n\n\n\nCan I have some please?\n\n\nThe next \"stall\" that they manned was their Tokoyaki Stall. I was really elated with the costumes that they got to wear. I mean both of them look so adorable in the Japanese attire. Ha :D Needless to say, this set up really allows kids to enjoy different occupations and learn what they ought to do for each of the different jobs. So after they were done selling those yummy ball-shaped snacks, they took up another job to sell another dish which is really synonymous with the Japanese-Sushi! So what do you want to order? Is it Hotate? Amaebi? Unagi? Don't forget to sip your green tea. OK~I am hungry already.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Welcome to Sushi Bar\n\n\n\n\n\nSo what do you like to have for lunch?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWill it be tuna? Salmon? Or just eggs?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWho wanna savour some fast food?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at those delicious patties and bacons. :p\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOne burger is ready for you\n\n\n\nI want extra cheeeesseeeee :D\n\n\nWant something more westernized? Head over to their Burger Shop where you could sink your teeth into those succulent patties, fresh crunchy lettuce and soft, aromatic buns. I was totally swooned over by the juicy bacons and the creamy cheese which melted in my mouth. It was really fun to make your own burgers by stacking the different ingredients together. Again this was another good learning opportunity for them.\n\n\n\n\n\nGotta restock!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nChoose only the finest and fresh ingredients\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to our kitchen\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMake sure you clean all your vegetables\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nAnd store them nicely\n\n\n\nWhen you have run out of ingredients where do you go? To the supermarket of course. Both of my kids could be seen busy selecting the finest vegetables and fresh produce that they need for their respective stalls. After that what did they do? You wash and clean them before storing them neatly of course. They washed the vegetables in the sink before putting them in the refrigerator. Again I love how they could learn what they needed to do in \"real life\". With\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Waiting for their bells\n\n\n\n\n\nAction time~let's take down the fire monsters\n\n\n\nIt is time to save the world\n\n\nAfter Jordan boy and Jasmine girl had done dishing out yummy food, they attempted to save the world. Their first tough job was to extinguish the fire serpents with their cute-looking hoses and plastic axe. Ha :D I loved the fire engine whereby one of them (Jasmine) could drive the truck while the other (Jordan) was busy spraying jets of water to put of the fire. It was really \"intense\" and the blaring sirens made everything more believable. The awesome-looking coats and helmets truly transformed them into the Fire Fighters. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nDoctors on duty\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is always good to have second opinion\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHere's your medicine\n\n\n\nThey quickly made their way to the hospital to save lives after they were done battling the fiery inferno. Clad in their pearly white doctor's coat, both of them could be seen busy listening to the heartbeat of their patient with their stethoscope. After their diagnosis, they prescribed medication for their lucky little doll patient. They were various tools for them to experiment with which I thought was really exciting. We asked them to tell us what the different equipment would be used for...and they replied with funny answers.\n\n\n\n\n\nNeed any help with your wheels?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWe have all the tools that you need\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are just one call away from your stalled vehicle\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan the florist. :p\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMommy receiving flowers from his beloved son\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nFlowers anyone?\n\n\n\nYour car has just broken down again? Fret not as mechanics Jordan and Jasmine are in the house to help you fix your cars in their mobile garage. They have all the tools needed to breathe life into your cars again. All you need to do is call them and they will be there in a jiffy. Ha :D Mommies will be happy to know that your kids will be giving your lots of beautiful blooms at the flower shop. Yes~kids can be florists to make the world a more beautiful and fragrant place.\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's time to go for a different ride\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nTrampoline\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's jump!\n\n\n\nIt's trampoline time!\n\n\nOnce they were done playing in the different stations and stalls, both of them wanted to loosen up even more with jumping and climbing acts. So they headed to the giant trampoline first. Parents should not worry too much as the trampoline is secured with mesh netting to make sure that our little ones will be safe all the time. Both of my big babies were really enjoying themselves, bouncing up and down without any inhibition at all. Woohoo!\n\n\n\n\n\nThe giant air slider\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's make our climb now\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nBe careful Jasmine girl\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's aim at the targets\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYou will have plenty of balls to play with\n\n\n\nWhen you are inhibited\n\n\nIt was really fun to jump around, but nothing beats swimming in a pool of balls right? There were literally tens of thousand of blue, white and yellow balls for your kids to play with.

We want to take them to places that they have never been before; To see sights that will broaden their horizons and of course etching indelible memories in their hearts. When we go on our holidays, we want to move around in comfort and that means having good luggage that will allow us to pack our clothes and travel essentials. Now that both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl are big enough, they can have their own suitcase or luggage. After searching high and low for the perfect kids travelling suitcase, we finally found Trunki-the suitcase that kids can ride on!\u00a0Yep! You read it right~a luggage that your little ones can sit and ride on!\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan boy and Jasmine girl with their Trunki Luggage\n\n\nAfter using Trunki for some time, I have to say that trunki is the preferred choice for parents who want to choose travel luggage for their kids. Why is that so? Obviously this is because Trunki Luggage is fun and functional! Unlike other conventional kids luggage which looks rather dull and exactly identical to the ones that we adults will be lugging along, Tunki luggage is a joy to look at. In fact the sight of it excites my kids so much. Both Jordan boy and Jasmine girl are swooning over how beautiful and adorable the Trunkis are. In the end I got each of them one-Flosi Flamingo (for Jasmine) and Race Car (for Jordan). Of course they were on cloud nine when they received their very own Trunki. :p\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOf course I didn't get them the Trunki Suitcases just because they are eye-candies right? There is more to them than meets the eye. Truth is I am really impressed with how functional these Trunki suitcases for kids are. First and foremost, I would like to commend on the materials used to build the suitcase. I find that the suitcases are really sturdy and durable, making it the ideal luggage for our little ones. In fact when I pressed against it and compared it with my (adult) luggage, I can't help but feel that my kids' Trunki is way more robust than mine. So it is safe to say the it can withstand quite a few knocks when being handled by my two little kids.\n\n\n\n\n\nThere are beautiful glittering stickers\u00a0 \ud83d\ude0a\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can personalize your Trunki with stickers\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThey are busy decorating their luggage\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYeah~it is done\n\n\n\n14 Reasons Why Trunki Suitcase Is The Best For Your Kids\n\n1. Cabin Luggage Approved\nIf you are thinking about using Trunki as a cabin luggage, you will be happy to know that it is approved to be your hand luggage for your flights. You will have no problem to board with them.\n\n\n2. Huge 18 Litre Capacity\nDespite being hand luggage approved for flights, that does not mean that it is small at all. In fact, you will be surprised that these cute suitcases could offer so much in term of storage capacity and can really provide ample space for your kids' clothes, games and even teddy bears.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3. Lock It Up\nWith the provided key, you can actually lock your Trunki up with the catches. So you don't have to worry about the possessions of your little ones go missing.\n\n4. Tough But Light\nThough it is engineered with durable materials, the suitcase is actually very light. This allows our kids to handle their own luggage (with minimal supervision) effortlessly when we go travelling.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5. Fun With Wheels\nOne of main reasons why we opted for Trunki is because it comes with wheels. We are not talking about any ordinary wheels but the ones that are tough enough to withstand up to 50kg of sit-on weight. Hence our kids can ride on it all day long without worrying about damaging the wheels whatsoever.\n\n6. Comfy Saddle\nWhat amazes me is how this suitcase is built with the needs of our kids in mind. Each Trunki comes with comfortable saddle to let our little ones to sit on it and rest. If we are waiting at the airport and there is no more seats, fret not as they can sit on their Trunki. In fact they could also sit on their own luggage while waiting to check in at hotels. Talking about ergonomic design huh. :)\n\n7. Perfect Grip With The Horns\nBy now I am sure you are aware that all Trunkis have their very own horns. Well they don't stick out\u00a0 of the suitcase for decorative purposes. They are there for our little ones to grip on them while enjoying their fun ride, being pulled around. Ha :D\n\n8. Tow Strap With Key\nTo make it easier for our little ones to enjoy their Trunki ride, each of these suitcases comes with their very own tow strap. Hence parents can easily pull their kids around. By the way the tow strap is where your key is attached, making it even easier for you to lock your suitcases.\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can easily carry yours around\n\n\n9. Carry Your Luggage\nBesides towing, riding and pulling the luggage, Trunki has also been designed to be carried. With the carry handles, you can easily carry it and move around. Besides the carry handles, you can also secure both ends of the tow strap for you to sling your luggage over your shoulder. Great design if you ask me.\n\n10. Safety Soft Rubber Trim\nAnother reason why I am so in love with the suitcase is because of its safety feature. The edges of the opening for the suitcase is lined with protective soft rubber trim so that our kids' fingers will not be injured in any way. So no more fingers being snapped. Speaking about child-proofing any potential hazards huh.\n\n11. Secret Pocket\nYes there is a secret pocket for your little ones to keep their stash way from parents with prying eyes. Joking. Joking. It is another nifty compartment for our little ones to put their little treasures inside. My children actually love this internal pocket as they get to put their cure, adorable stuff in it.\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can put so much into your Trunki\n\n\n12. Teddy Bear Seatbelts\n\"Buckle up teddy!\" That's what my daughter told her soft teddy bear when she put him in. With the strap, rest assured that your beloved plushies will be safe and secure. They will be tucked in nicely and be happy when you reopen the suitcase to greet them. Ha :D\n\n13. Customize With Stickers\nHere is another fabulous reason to own a Trunki. Your kids can personalize the suitcase with the high-quality stickers. They can design their own luggage according to their own preferences and imagination. We even use the stickers to name the Trunkis. This is really a great way to let children have a sense of ownership over their luggae. Brilliant idea indeed!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n14. 5 Years Guarantee\nIf you need total peace of mind, you will be encouraged to know that Trunki comes with 5 years of warranty. Yupe~we are not talking about 1 or 2 years limited warranty but a whopping 5 years. This goes to show how durable and high-quality Trunki is.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Time to go\n\n\n\n\n\nTrunki works like a normal luggage but more fun\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Kids can easily pull their Trunki around...\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Or...let their father pull them with them riding on their Trunki\n\n\n\n\n\nVroom here we go now.\n\n\nI am really, really glad that I have chosen the two Trunki suitcases for my children as they are more than what I have asked for. Opening the Trunki on the plane is really easy and without any hassle at all. Everything can be retrieved immediately. I love the fact that Trunki has been meticulously designed with the needs of our kids in mind. It comes with all the bells and whistles that even picky parents will be happy with. It is durable, highly practical, kids-friendly and more importantly fun to move around with. Ouh...not to mention, Trunki can be a real looker, judging from the attention that we have been getting.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you want to ask my children if they love they Trunkis, they will be screaming, \"YESSSSS! We love our Trunkis!\" Jordan boy and Jasmine girl are so truly, madly, deeply in love with their very own colourful luggage that they keep on asking us when will our next vacation be. Yeah~they can't wait to pack their stuff in it again and pull around their own luggage. With Trunki, they can be more responsible with their belongings. This allows them to be more independent as well. All in all, I am giving Trunki 2 thumbs up and it is without a doubt the BEST kids travel luggage that you can purchase right now for your kids.\n\n\n\n\n\nObviously they are very happy with their Trunkis\n\n\n\nFor more information about Trunki:\n\nOfficial Website: www.trunki.co.uk\n\nRegional Website: bloomandgrowasia.com/brands/trunki\n\nFacebook: www.facebook.com/bloomandgrowasia\n\nInstagram: www.instagram.com/trunkitravels\n\n\n\n\n\nGet your very own Trunki-the best luggage for kids.\n\n"} {"title": "Dyson V11 Absolute- The Best Cordless Vacuum (My Honest Review)", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nThey say household chores like keeping everything tidy, cleaning the shelves and especially vacuuming the dust is something that is reserved for ladies and women only. Most men (sons, boyfriends and fathers) will agree to this statement without thinking twice. Well...that is because they have not met Dyson V11 Absolute\u00a0(yet) which is an avant-garde vacuum cleaner that I will rate as the best cordless vacuum cleaner to date.\u00a0This latest cord-free vacuum cleaner from Dyson provides unbelievably suction power and even a display screen to let you have a look at its battery and runtime! There is no doubt that this vacuum cleaner is from the future.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSometimes we get tangled up right?\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0So I have got myself an ideal cleaner\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0YES! Dyson V11 Absolute Cordless Vacuum Cleaner\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore I could bust any dirt and dust, I need to charge my \"gun\" first.\n\n\n\n\nBeing a modern-day husband, it is my responsibility to help lighten my wife's burden at home. While she is busy dishing our scrumptious food in the kitchen, it only makes sense that I help around in the house, keeping our abode clean and dustless. I have a confession to make: usually vacuuming the house is a tedious and sweaty affair as I have to pull the cords and tug along the vacuum cleaner. Not anymore! Behold my very own, brand new Dyson V11 Absolute Vacuum Cleaner! Honestly speaking, vacuuming the house is something that I really, really enjoy doing right now. In fact my wife claims that I am vacuuming way too much. LOL :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Let's unbox the world's best cordless vacuum cleaner\n\n\n\n\n\nAlways read the instructions\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHmm...\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's see what do we have inside the box\n\n\n\n\n\nA lot of things if you ask me\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nActual footage of me when I get my gun! :p\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nOMG! Is this really a vacuum cleaner?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nUnbelievably beautiful\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore simple guides\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0It is really easy to set V11 up.\n\nIt's practically plug and play\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you ready to suck dust?\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLight Saber or Laser Gun?\nVacuuming used to be kinda boring and a drag due to the dull-looking vacuum cleaner with cords that will hold you back and even tangle you up! Now with this handheld cordless vacuum cleaner from Dyson, your vacuuming will be a breeze. In fact, I can't help but feel like I am a freaking Jedi in Star Wars movies, wielding my purplish blue light saber while sucking all those pesky dust around me. On the other hands, it also looks like a futuristic gun from a sci-fi movie that threatens to wipe out anything that I am pointing at. Don't you feel the same as well? My mind is still blown by how beautiful and cool this V11 Absolute is! It is definitely a looker.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0I am a Jedi Master with my light saber\n\n\n\n\n\nGuardian of the Galaxy with my laser gun. :p\n\n\nLook! No More Cord\nOk! Let's get down to business. So how do I suck dust from around my house? You see instead of a normal on/off button, you need to press on the red trigger to start vacuuming. *SEE it is like a laser gun* I really love this intuitive design as it means you don't have to switch the vacuum on and off all the time. All you need to do is wrap one finger on the red trigger, apply pressure and *voila* dust can be seen collecting in the cylinder. I really feel liberated when I am using the V11 as there is no need to plug in. All I need to do is grab my gun and start vacuuming without the hassle of being restrained by cord length. It is super convenient and easy now to clean your house.\n\n\n\n\nEven my wife is loving it\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0There is no need to worry about electrical plug\n\n\n\n\n\nEven my children can vacuum now\n\n\n\n\n\nWithout the cords you can easily do your cleaning virtually anywhere\n\n\nIntelligent Adaptive Sucking\nIt is undeniable that V11 Absolute is the best cord-free vacuum cleaner that Dyson has invented to date. Do you know that it can intelligently adjust the suction power automatically according to the floor type? Yes. Thanks to the 3 microprocessors integrated inside the Dynamic Load Sensor of the battery, digital motor and High Torque Cleaner Head, it can detect the different surfaces and change the power of the suction accordingly. This is made possible thanks to the the microprocessors which monitor your vacuuming performances up to 8,000 times a second. That is really, really fast!\n\n\n\n\n\nV11 is an intelligent Vacuum Cleaner that will make life easy for you\n\n\nContrary to popular belief, a handheld cordless vacuum cleaner is not as powerful as a regular vacuum cleaner with wire. That is not the case here with the V11 Absolute. I am super impressed by how powerful the V11 digital motor is. Most of the time I just need to pass the vacuum once over any surfaces that I am cleaning\u00a0and then it is spick and span. This is what happens when your vacuum motor runs at insane neck-breaking 125,000 rpm. On top of that, Dyson engineers further enhanced the motor by adding a triple diffuser and redesigning the rotating blades to be thinner and longer. All these tweaks enable the performance of the V11 motor, improving air flow, increasing suction power and reducing noise. Thanks to the re-engineering of the motor, my V11 has 20% more suction power than its older sibling-V10.\n\n\n\n\n\n125,000rpm\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe High Torque Cleaner Head can automatically adjust the suction power\n\n\n\nFor your information, the cleaner head is capable of detecting bar resistance of up to 360 times per second. This allows the motor to change the sucking power accordingly if you glide between hard floors and say rugs. In other words, with such intelligent vacuuming capability you do not need to change your cleaner head as the suction power can be adjusted according to the surface that you are cleaning. So all you need to do is press the trigger and the cordless vacuum cleaner will be doing all the heavy lifting!\n\n\n\n\n\nAn LCD display for a vacuum?\n\nWho would have thought right?\n\n\nSmart LCD Display\nAnother first in V11 is the inclusion of integrated LCD display to show us the battery mode (auto, boost and eco) as well as the remaining runtime (battery juice). This ingenious display panel allows you to select your battery mode depending on your vacuuming needs and available runtime left. If you do not want to overthink which mode you should be using, just plug in the aforementioned High Torque Cleaner with Dynamic Load Sensor and it will change to Auto Mode. Then the suction power will be changed accordingly and toggled between the modes automatically to help you balance between power and battery. It is fun to see LCD display showing the auto-suction toggling between the different modes. :p\n\n\n\n\n\nToggle between modes through the LCD display\n\n\nApart from showing you a countdown timer (remaining runtime), the display will also notify you when your filter needs to be washed. It will also alert you if you do not connect your vacuum correctly. Experiencing blockage? Fret not as the screen will guide you on how to fix the problem by actually playing an animated demo for your to dismantle the vacuum to solve your problem. You will have your whole command system on the screen. Damn! So it makes perfect sense to add a circular LCD screen to V11.\n\n\n\n\n\nAll the tools that you need\n\n\nTools For Every Job\nThe moment I unbox my Dyson V11 Absolute, I know that I am getting every single tools that I need to combat dirt and dust in my home! You will be equipped with a plethora of cleaner heads, tools and even a drop in dock. The following are the \"gears\" that come with the V11 Absoloute:\n\nHigh Torque Cleaner Head (multipurpose open space)\nSoft Roller Cleaner Head (hard floor)\nMini Motorised Tool (stairs, furniture, car, small spaces)\nCombination Tool (furniture)\nCrevice Tool (small spaces)\nSoft Dusting Tool (window ledges, wall skirting)\nStubborn Dirt Brush (carpets, door mats)\nWand Storage Clip (to hold two tools)\nDrop-in Dock (charging dock, tools holder)\n\n\n\n\nPick your tool to do the job\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0The wand storage clip is really useful to attach two other tools to it\n\n\n\nIt is kinda fun toying with the different tools and heads to get your cleaning job done. You can switch the accessories to see what fits your cleaning tasks. As for me, most of the time I will be using the High Torque Cleaner Head, Mini Motorised Tool, the Crevice Tool and the Soft Dusting Brush. Another useful addition is the Wand Storage Clip which allows me to attach two of my most-used tools to the extension pole (purplish blue light saber). Hence I can easily swap my tools for different tasks as it is attached to the vacuum. Speaking about total convenience here!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLove how cool the Drop-in Dock is\n\n\n\n\nAnother very important tool that Dyson decided to throw in is the Drop-in Dock which I thought was really, really indispensable. Besides being a charging dock, it also contains two ports for you to store your other tools that you do not use that frequent. More importantly, IMHO this Dock really makes the whole V11 Absolute looks more beautiful and not to mention very premium. It really exudes so much class and futuristic vibes to it. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nRest assured that everything will be filtered\n\n\nClean and Easy\nWhen you are vacuuming around your house, the 14 cyclones will be busy generating a collective force of more than 79,000g to suck in all the microscopic particles such as bacteria and pollen into the V11 Bin. So rest assured that nothing dirty will be sticking to any surfaces that you have glided over. Moreover the fully sealed filtration system also ensure that only clean air will be expelled at the other end of the vacuum. Do you know that the filtration system can trap up to 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns? Gosh it sounds like my Dyson Air Purifier already.\n\n\n\n\n\nPoint and eject the dirt.\n\nEasy and clean\n\n\nAfter using the V11 Absolute I don't think I will be using another normal vacuum cleaner anymore. Why? This is because it makes me feel so CLEAN. Thanks to the clever design of the \"Point and Shoot\" V11 Bin, I can easily dispose all the collected dust and dirt without being in contact with any of the filth. All I have to do is hover the V11 Bin on top of a trashcan and push down the lever to eject all the dirt and dust. Since the bin is also transparent, you can easily see how much dust, dirt and of course are being sucked in. That is I am saying that you will find it really clean and easy to use this superb vacuum cleaner!\n\n\n\n\nWatch my simple video review about the\n6 reasons why you should get Dyson V11 Absolute Cordless Vacuum Cleaner\n\n\nVerdict-Why You Should Buy Dyson V11 Absolute\nAfter using my Dyson V11 Absolute for almost 1 week, I must say that my house has definitely become cleaner (no joke). More importantly, I am so used to the convenience that comes with it. It is so easy to use that I am actually doing a lot more of spot cleaning on top of my weekly routine. In fact even children are now more keen to help clean the house. After all, it only takes a few minutes to suck some hair, clean around the dining area for food crumbs and to banish those little dirt dust.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe World's Best Cordless Vacuum Cleaner\n\n\nIf you are shopping for your very first cordless vacuum cleaner, then this Dyson V11 Absolute should be on top of your list. It surely has the incredible suction power to rival or even beat any existing corded vacuum cleaners available in the market right now. The introduction of High Torque Cleaner Head enables intelligent automatic adaptive suction which I think is really good and convenient. The addition of LCD display has also changed how I clean my house. In fact these two improvements have truly refined my experience in using a cordless vacuum cleaner. So I will gladly declare in this review of mine that Dyson V11 Absolute is a beast and is absolutely the best cordless vacuum cleaner that money can buy right now.\n\n\n\n\nI am addicted to using my Dyson V11 Absolute right now!\nYou should get one too. :p\n\nDyson: https://shop.dyson.my/\nFacebook: www.faebook.com/DysonMy\nInstagram: www.instagram.com/dyson\nTwitter: www.twitter.com/dyson\n\n"} {"title": "Linksys Velop-Create Your Perfect Home WI-FI System", "body": "\n\n\n\nDon't you feel frustrated when you cannot get any WI-FI signal a all in the comfort of your own home just because your room happens to be far, far away from where your modem or router is? Don't you feel irritated when you favourite binge-shows are being interrupted no thanks to weak WI-FI connection? The worst part is if you are a gamer (like me) is when you have been declared as AFK (Away From Keyboard) just because your WI-FI signal is not good enough...and then you were banned from playing the game for some time. Been there? This goes to show that we need to have a very, very good WIFI system at home to truly enjoy our (expensive) Internet subscription. Otherwise it is just a waste of your money.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold the Velop TRUE WiFi Mesh System that will set your Internet Free from Linksys\n\n\n\n\nThere are so many gadgets that promise to extend WI-FI range or in other words amplify the existing WI-FI signal so that you could enjoy your Internet. Then again if your WI-FI signal is weak to begin with, then no amount of amplification will work. That is where Linksys Velop come into the picture. Instead of amplification of WI-FI signal, Linksys Velop deploys mesh networks that consist of nodes that are capable of transmitting data around at WI-FI speeds. Unlike other mesh systems, Linksys Velop is the true mesh networking system as it is more reliable and more advanced compared to the other competition in the market.\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's unbox our true mesh Wi-Fi system, shall we?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0I love the elegant design\n\n\n\n\n\nHoles for ventilation-This allows the nodes to work efficiently\n\n\nAfter I have personally tested the mesh networking system from Linksys, I must say that it is the real deal as there is no main default router to begin with. This clever design ensures that each node (there are 3) is able to communicate with each other independently. In other words each of the 3 nodes in the VELOP system function as an individual full-fledged standalone router. This special functionality allows the Velop mesh system to work with much more flexibility. I gotta admit that this intuitive design and engineering is really ingenious.\n\n\n\n\n\nEssentials connections at the base of the nodes\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nPower plug\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n3-pin? 2-pin? Don't worry~Linksys got you covered\n\n\nCrafted to be an eye candy, each of the Linksys Nodes is aesthetically pleasing and elegant (thanks to the all white colour). Honestly speaking when I un-box them, they don't look like a router at all. In fact, these 3 beauties look more like wireless Bluetooth speakers. The best part is, each of the nodes is designed to be compact. Meaning that it can easily fit in any corner of your house. Linksys claimed that each of their nodes is 88% smaller than a traditional router and I do agree thoroughly.\n\n\n\n\n\nLet's try to connect our nodes\n\n\nBeing compact and beautiful means that all the nodes can easily be placed anywhere you like since it takes up less space and will blend in with its surrounding easily. As I am staying in a 4-bedroom house, I decided to create my Mesh WI-FI System by placing my 3 nodes at different locations in the house especially the dead spots. Set up was really a breeze and easy. The effortless, app-based set up guided me through the whole plug and play process easily. In no time I am enjoying my full speed Internet throughout my house. Ha :D\n\n\n\n\n\nThe step-by-step guide is really helpful\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0(Left) There is this optional Linksys shield which I thought is really good.\n\n(Centre): Guest Access can be set easily\n\n(Right): Set who gets exclusive priority!\n\n\n\n\u00a0After you have done setting your first node, you can set the other (depending on your needs) easily.\n\n\nLike I have aforementioned, each of the 3 nodes is a master of its own-meaning that should one of the nodes is accidentally switched off or unplugged, the other nodes will immediately pick up the slack and reconnect your devices to ensure they have Internet connectivity all the time.\u00a0I tried this \"self-healing\" ability of Velop by switching off one of the nodes and I am really impressed with its ability to ensure continued WI-FI coverage\u00a0for all my devices. No stuttering, no downtime! No lagging at all!\n\n\n\n\n\nI love how the node blends in easily\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe colour indicator is really helpful as well\n\n\n\n\n\nThose who house is more than 1 storey will really love Linksys Velop Mesh WiFi system\n\n\nNow being a Netflix junkie means that I really enjoy watching my favourite shows once my children and wife are asleep. Ha :D With Velop you do not have to worry if you have to move from your living room to say...the kitchen to grab something to eat as the whole house is blanketed with full strength WI-FI signal. So there will be no lagging or buffering or whatsoever to disrupt your viewing experience. Likewise while I am playing game, I could easily move from room to room without being worried about dropped WI-FI signal as Velop allows me to enjoy seamless WI-FI roaming from room-to-room. This is made possible as you only need to be connected to only one network all the time without the need to switch. Now that is what I call WI-FI that sets you free!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatch where I place my nodes around my home. :)\n\nIf you are a parent like me, you will be happy to know that you can easily limit and control your kids' screen time with the Linksys Shield (on Velop Tri-band only). So no more worrying about our little ones surfing the wrong kinds of websites, being addicted to online games or watching shows non-stop (only I am allowed to enjoy such privileges :p). So you are going to have a party and there will be many guests? Just share your WI-FI connection with them as they will get their own WI-FI name and password. All of these can be done easily though the app. Talking about total convenience and peace of mind huh!\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is obvious that Velop is really small compared to your normal router\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0In the Kitchen? No problem Velop got you convered\n\n\n\n\n\nWatching something in the toilet? Ha :D\n\nHa~no worries thanks to Linksys Velop\n\n\nI am really happy that I have invested in this perfect WI-FI mesh network system of mine. It is really worth every penny I have spent as I now get to fully enjoy my Internet subscription to do things that I love. The best part is this Linksys Velop Mesh WI-FI is future-proof as it will enjoy automatic software and security updates to make sure you are always ahead of the competition. Last but not least the 3 years warranty and 3 years premium level tech support will surely be a great added assurance for you to purchase your very own Links Velop Mesh WI-FI system as well. It is time to create the perfect, flawless home WI-FI network.\n\n\nFor more information about Linksys Velop:\nWebsite: www.linksys.com/my\nVelop Direct Link: www.linksys.com/my/velop\nFacebook: www.facebook.com/linksys\nTwitter: www.twitter.com/linksys\nInstagram: www.instagram.com/linksys\n\n\n\n\nLinksys Velop Whole Home WiFi to let you truly enjoy your Internet\n\n"} {"title": "8 Reasons Why I Love My Tesalate Sand Free Beach Towel From Australia", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nWho doesn't love going to the beach right?

In fact the putrid stench of the haze is still palpable even when we have bolted all the windows and doors while we are in the \"comfort\" of our home. This is so wrong! This is worsened by the searing temperature that comes with the sweltering heatwave. So not only that we have to deal with the blistering hot spell, the very air that we breathe in has become extremely dirty as well even inside our own home.\n\n\n\n\n\nMe unboxing my new air purifier! :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am well aware that I need to solve both these problems of filthy, hazy air and hot weather at the same time. There is no way I am going to risk the health of my little Jordan and Jasmine by allowing them to breathe in the dirty air.\u00a0Hence I need an air purifier that will cleanse whatever that we inhale inside our home; In other words an air purifier that really works properly. So after searching high and low, I finally found what I need to keep my family safe and healthy...and not to mention cool too during this hot and stuffy spell!\n\n\n\n\n\nMy Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan\n\n\n\n\n\nIt comes with a beautiful magnetized remote\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nIt's time to breathe in pure, fresh, clean air. :D\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBehold my new Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan which is my answer to beat the haze and heatwave. Though initially I was held back by its relatively eye-watering price tag, I immediately decided to get one the moment I realized how effective it is in purifying our dirty air (read on to find out). I believe my investment in health with Dyson Pure Cool technology will give me peace of mind for the sake of my beloved family especially my two little ones.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Both of them are so happy with their new \"fan\". :)\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook ma~no blades!\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at how excited they were. :)\n\n\n\nSome of you might ask, do we really need an air purifier when we are at home? You see unless you are living in an air-tight vacuum house, you will really need a good air purifier as we will be spending the bulk of our time in our home sweet home. Sadly our home can no longer be considered to be clean anymore as pollutants from outside can easily permeates the air in our home, rendering it to be unhealthy. Imagine breathing in the dirty air that seeps into your home for 12 hours even when you are sleeping!\u00a0 NO WAY I am going to let my wife and children breathe in those dirty air particles and clog their lungs! That is why yours truly me have invested in Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan. The following are my reasons:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6 Reasons Why Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan Is The Best Air Purifier\n\n\n\n1-Real Time Air Quality Reading\n\nWhat really impresses me is the presence of an LCD display that will actually show me the air quality around me in real-time on the spot. This means that the Dyson air purifier will automatically sense and detect all the particles as well as gases and reveal the exact readings or air pollution thanks to the state-of-the-art Dyson algorithm. On top of that, the sensors can also also pick up humidity level and temperature accurately.\n\n\n\n\n\nReal-time air quality reading!\n\n\n\n\nUnderstanding the air around you\n\n\n\n2-Purifies with 360 Degree\u00a0Filtration System\u00a0\n\nThe ability to capture a whopping 99.95% of ultrafine particles as small as 0.1 microns makes Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan one of the best air purifiers in the market. The best part is, the filtration system can suck, capture and filter air not only from one direction but every single direction thanks to its 360 degree filtration system which really sets it apart from the competition. So no pollutants can run and hide! The fully-sealed filter system consists of activated carbon and a Glass HEPA filter that will remove almost all (99.95%) of pollutants that are invisible to our naked eyes. In other words, the air in your home will now be fresh and clean.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3-Purified Air For Every Inch of the Room\n\nThis is yet another interesting feature that helps me to make up my mind to get this air purifier from Dyson. Thanks to its unique Air Multiplier technology and the new 350 degree oscillation (YES 350 degree!), every inch of the room will be projected and filled with purified, clean air. You can choose to oscillate it either at 45\u2070, 90\u2070, 180\u2070\u00a0and of course 350\u2070. Honestly, this is something that a normal air purifier will not be able to do. Two thumbs up for this feature!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProject purified air in every direction\n\n\n\n\nThis is how Air Multiplier Technology works\n\n\n\n4-Beautiful Sexy Design\n\nOK! I don't want to brag but this new machine of mine is really a head turner. Family members, relatives and friends were stunned the moment they lay their eyes on my sexy air purifier. Honestly, even I can't help but to admire its beautiful aesthetic lines and design which really make it a fashion statement to say the least. It fits every corner of the house! By the way, I really love this sleek Nickel Black air purifier of mine~it exudes so much enigma and class to it. Dayum!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBeauty and the Beast\n\n\n\n\n5-Dyson Link App\n\nThough Dyson has included a beautiful (again this is amazingly designed) curved, magnetized remote control to put it neatly on top of the purifier, I can actually control my air purifier by using the Dyson Link App using my smartphone. Besides having the same features as the physical remote control, I can also track the daily or weekly air quality where my air purifier is placed. On top of that I can schedule when I want it to be automatically turned on and off. Speaking about intuitive design huh!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLinking Dyson Link App with the air purifier\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWorks like the real remote\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and After\n\n\n\n\nNow they can sleep better at night. :)\n\n\n\n6-Rigorous Testing To Create The Perfect Air Purifier\n\nThis is one of the most important reasons why I choose Dyson purifying technology. Do you know that it took 2,605 prototypes to create the perfect Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan that we see right now? The rigorous testing (POLAR Test Chamber) is done to reflect real living spaces to ensure that the air is purified anywhere in the whole room. For your information other normal air purifiers will only cleanse the air around the machine and not the whole room. Obviously not all air purifiers are the same.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOf course there are so many other features that I have yet to mention such as Night Time Mode which I use a lot as the purifier will shift to its quietest settings and dim the LCD display to ensure we will have a good night's sleep. So if you are looking for an air purifier to beat the haze and a cooling fan to sizzle down the heatwave, you should really consider this Dyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan. It is time for you to breathe in healthy, cool air in your own home! This is the de facto air purifier which checks all the boxes. Period. :)\n\n\n\n\nNow I can sleep better as well....ZZZzzzz *snore*\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can get your very own Dyson air purifier at shop.dyson.my\n\nDyson Pure Cool Purifying Tower Fan: RM2,829\nDyson Pure Cool Purifying Desk Fan: RM2,259\n\n"} {"title": "Amazon Shopping With BuyandShip Malaysia", "body": "\n\n\n\n\n\nImagine you were happily browsing on Amazon, trying to find the best deals on the Internet; When you have finally made up your mind to purchase an item, it was stated that this item does not ship to you country.

All this while, I thought that creating my very own business card was going to be difficult and expensive until I stumble upon Gogoprint! My savior-seriously!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy very first business card for Tekkaus.com\n\n\n\n\nInitially I was skeptical about printing my business cards online as I was unsure whether the results would be good or not. That was why I turned to traditional localized business card printer to help me out. Unfortunately I had a few setbacks while requesting for quotation at my local stores. Most of them told me that I needed to design my card on my own without any help whatsoever which was a bummer. Then I chanced upon this gem on the Internet thanks to Mr. Google. After searching high and low literally for\u00a0high quality business card which is cheap, I finally stumbled upon Gogoprint.\u00a0Now you can design and print your own business card online easily and it is cheap!\n\n\n\n\n\nIntroducing Gogoprint-high quality business cards printer at low prices\n\n\nI actually asked from a few local freelance graphic designers the cost to design my business card and I was shocked to learn that they are charging somewhere between RM150 to RM250 for a complete front-and-back design. That is why I said Gogoprint is my saviour. I was really impressed with the integrated business card designer on their website. Altogether there are 63 different FREE templates with various designs and colours for you to choose from.\u00a0Yes~it is free of charge to use the online designer instead of hiring expensive graphic designer.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0It is really easy to make your business card with the FREE template designer\n\n\n\n\u00a0There are 63 different templates for you to choose from.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe designs are professional, funky and colourful! :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nYupe~I picked this template for my business card\n\n\nAfter browsing for some time, I zeroed down on that template design which I love and started to edit and customize my very first business card. I just needed to upload the cover that I have grabbed from my Facebook fan page and my blog icon; I typed in my details such as phone number, my blog URL, social media connections and voila! My very first business card for my blog is done in less than 10 minutes online.\u00a0How I wish I knew about this online printing company sooner.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0After you have selected your template, you just need to customize it.\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is really easy as you just need to upload the image that you already have\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nSee, I uploaded my image that I grabbed from my Facebook page\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nUploaded my blog icon and typed in other details!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nTa~da! I am done. Here is the preview.\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Then I selected the paper and the type of finishing that I want for my business card.\n\nGlossy lamination of course! :)\n\n\n\n\n\nSelect the number of copies that you want. The more the better of course.\n\n\n\n\n\nLastly you just need to pay and wait for it to arrive at your doorstep. :)\n\n\nPayment can be done easily too after you have specified the amount that you want, the type of paper to be used and of course the finishing that you desire for your business card. I have personally chosen the lamination glossy on both sides for my business cards as I want my cards to feel more premium and high class. Ha :D All in all I only paid RM57.00 for 300 pieces of glossy laminated business cards. Delivery of my business cards was really fast as it took around 2 to 3 days only for them to arrive at my doorstep though it was stated that it would arrive later. So another thumbs up for the company.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am so in love with my business card. :)\n\n\nI was really dumbstruck when I unwrapped my business cards for the very first time! In fact I was so touched at the sight of my classy-looking business cards that I almost cried. I could not hold back the tears of joy to see them being so beautifully printed. When I touched my cards, the glossy lamination on them really exudes that premium feel which certainly made my business cards stand out. *I am so proud* The colours are so vividly vibrant and attractive. OMG! Thank you\u00a0Gogoprint for making this possible! I am so going to recommend this printing company to anyone who wants to print their business cards.

Here's my name card! :)\n\n"} {"title": "Russell Taylors Air Fryer-My Honest Review", "body": "\n\n\n\n\nI once thought that air fryer is just a fancy kitchen gadget that will turn into a white elephant soon after you have unwrapped the lavish packaging; I was also very skeptical about the food that you cook with this so-called \"frying using the air\" technology. I asked myself, \"Will the food even be edible let alone tasty?\" Those are the questions that have been stopping me from believing in any air fryer until...I was introduced to this Russell Taylors' Air Fryer. Honestly after trying it for the first time, my perception of food cooked by air fryer has completely changed.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0Introducing Russell Taylors Air Fryer\n\n\n\nBenefits of using this air fryer\n\n\n\nWhat can you do with an air fryer?\n\n\n\nLet's unbox my air fryer right now. :)\n\n\n\nFirst and foremost, for those uninitiated non-believer like the previous me, an air fryer uses hot air convection to cook your food. In other words, instead of using OIL to fry your food, an air fryer will use AIR to cook your meals. This translates to less oil/fat being used and ultimately you will get to enjoy healthier food which is equally delicious if not better. So what is the secret of this Russell Taylors air fryer? Apparently it utilizes advanced, rapid hot air circulation technology to cook your food from all angles swiftly and evenly.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0I can't help but fall in love with this air fryer of mine.\n\n\n\n\n\nSleek and elegant\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI got myself the Russell Taylors Digital Air Fryer AF-36 XL which is the company's biggest air fryer (4.8 liters) to date. Right after I had ripped the box open, I was greeted by this sleek, jet-black coloured air fryer which really looks like a fashion statement on its own. Its design is simple, yet it exudes so much elegance to it that it can be placed in any corner in my kitchen. The digital panel nestled on top of the machine makes it even more remarkable, giving it that premium, sophisticated touch. OK! I was totally swooned by its look; Can it walk the talk? Let's see.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSo how do we use this Russell Taylors air fryer?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nPush forward the transparent button to reveal the frying basket\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJust look at the huge capacity!\n\n\n\n\nUsing the air fryer for the very first time was truly effortless as it was easy to operate even without reading the manual (but you are advised to read it first :p). Pretty intuitive if you ask me! After holding the hand grip, all you need to do is to push the \"transparent squarish button\" forward to draw out the pan which is nestling the frying basket. To separate the basket from the pan, just press the dial underneath the transparent button to release the basket. This mechanism allows you to wash the pan and basket after dishing out your meals.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTime to cook?\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen in doubt, do refer to the manual...which I didn't because it was really easy to use.\n\n\n\n\nSo how do we cook our food such as chicken or fish using the air fryer? It is pretty easy. Basically all you need to do is to put whatever you want to cook into the basket and push the pan into the air fryer again. Then the digital control panel will be activated, prompting you how you would like your food to be cooked. You can either control it manually in terms of temperature and timer or you can use the cooking preset menu (there are 7 to choose from) to cook your food. As for me, I cooked my fish and chicken just by using the preset menu, sat back and relaxed! It was really, really easy. After 20 minutes or so, my perfectly air-fried fish and chickens are\u00a0 ready to be served! Voila~it is time to feast!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMy wife was really excited to use her air fryer.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHere we go...\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0You can either set the temperature and timer manually or...\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can use the preset menu to cook your food. EASY!\n\n\n\n\nIs the food cooked by my Russell Taylors Air Fryer tasty? Is it better than conventional cooking using wok and pan? The verdict is... *drum roll* the fish and chicken cooked by using the air fryer were really, really more delicious and flavourful compared to traditional way of cooking them *gasped*. To be brutally honest, I did not expect them to taste this scrumptious as I had always believed nothing beats wok and pan. How wrong was I.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDing! The fish is ready to be served!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nLook at my happy wife, holding her perfectly cooked fish minus the odour. :)\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nCrispy on the outside but tender and juicy on the inside!\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is easy to prepare dinner with our air fryer now.\n\n\n\n\nThe skin of the fish was so crispy and yet not a single drop of oil was used to fry the fish. The fish was fried to perfection and the meat was so tender, sweet and juicy. I believe the air frying technology can lock the juice in the meat, giving the fish that lips-smacking goodness! I was really taken aback with the results to be honest. Moving on, we threw in 6 pieces of chicken wings (yeah~the frying basket is really big) into the air fryer and waited for them to be cooked. We pressed the desired menu and voila in no time our sleek, jet-black air fryer was beeping, informing us that our chicken wings are ready!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow about chicken wings?\n\n\n\n\nVisually, all 6 of the chicken wings were air fried flawlessly as you can tell by looking at the golden brown texture of the skin. But how about the taste? I sank my teeth into the chicken wings and oh my God~immediately I knew that the chicken wings were masterfully cooked. Like the fish, the chicken meat was delicate and lusciously delectable. How was this even possible? Again it was because of the all-angle rapid air technology used by Russell Taylors. I am truly impressed to say the least.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur chicken wings are ready.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nMasterfully cooked without the need to flip the chicken wings or deal with any popping hot oil!\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nHealthy golden brown chicken wings\n\n\n\n\nEven my wife who is one of the greatest cooks that I have known, gives her nod of approval for this air fryer. Moreover she claims that besides cooking fish, chicken or whatever we desire to perfection, the use of air fryer also means that she can free up her time to do something else while waiting for our food to be served. This is what we call convenience right? My wife also loves the air fryer because she does not need to sniff in those odours while frying her fish or chicken anymore. Thanks to the integrated air filter, the use of air fryer also means that your cooking will be clean and your kitchen will be odourless. Thumbs up!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWifey is really, really happy with the chicken wings.\u00a0\n\n\n\n\n\nThe chicken wings were really finger-licking good!\n\n\n\n\nSo can an air fryer replace your wok and pan? The answer is no. However I must admit that an air fryer is a must-have cooking companion to complement your cooking experience. I am really, really happy to get this huge air fryer for my wife. Now she can can cook tasty dinner for us every single day. In fact this air fryer is also a multi-cooker which means you can bake a cake, grill calamari and even roast a whole chicken with it! Dayum! I am drooling right now.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI am really happy with my Russell Taylors Digital Air Fryer AF-36\n\n\n\n\nThe best part is, this high-quality Russell Taylors air fryer only cost me around RM250 and it comes with 1 year warranty which is an absolute value for money if you ask me. My wife is very, very happy with her latest kitchen helper so lots brownie points for me *wink wink*.
