Review – Mi True Wireless Earphones 2 Basic (a.k.a. Mi Air2 SE or Mi AirDots 2 SE)

Introducing, Xiaomi’s sequel to the famous Redmi AirDots. This time around, it has a lot of different names which I don’t understand why. As far as I know, it’s called the Xiaomi Mi Air2 SE, but locally in Malaysia, it’s referred to as the Mi True Wireless Earphones 2 Basic. Then, there’s also the Mi AirDots 2 SE, which looks identical.
Either way, in this review, I’ll be calling it the Mi Air2 SE. And with its super low price, is it worthy of becoming the successor of the Redmi AirDots (a.k.a. the Mi True Wireless Earbuds Basic)?

Unboxing
The packaging design is pretty much the same as any other Xiaomi audio device. It has a blue and white packaging design and that’s pretty much it.

Opening up the box, the contents are pretty simple. We only have the Mi Air2 SE, a USB-C charging cable, and also user manual. The user manual is unfortunately fully in Chinese since our unit is from China.
Design
The Mi Air2 SE has an indicator LED at the front of the case which is pretty typical. And this time around, it has a clean white design and one USB-C port at the back for charging.

Opening up the lid, we can see that the earphones themselves are sitting there nicely, in a clear white design too. There is an indicator LED at bottom of each stem to indicate the status too.

Now, unfortunately, the entire Mi Air2 SE is made out of cheap lightweight plastic – which is rather soft, so it can get scuffed up easily. Fortunately, the plastic makes it really lightweight it feels like I didn’t wear anything while it’s on my ears.

Now, the earphones themselves have the same design as the Apple AirPods. There’s nothing particularly wrong since I absolutely love this design of earphones since it hangs on my ears instead of plugging into my ears. For me, I feel that the AirPods designs are much more comfortable.
But, the earphones are huge… and they do look gaudy.
Features
There is an indentation on each earphone and that is where the touchpad. Again, unfortunately, there are still not that many features that can be done with the earphones themselves. Here they are:

Wearing both sides:

Right side: double-tap to play/pause
Left side: double-tap to the voice assistant

One-sided mode: double-tap to play/pause
Phone calls: tap 2 twice to accept/end call
Reset: Put both earphones in the case, long-press both touch panels for 7 seconds

There are no volume controls and track control, which is very unfortunate since that is one of the biggest complaints that we all have on the original Redmi AirDots.

Sound quality
The sound quality of the Mi Air2 SE is actually not that bad. It has good bass and I can definitely hear them – but there’s no thumping bass since this earphone doesn’t create a seal around the ear.
The mids and highs are okay but there’s nothing really extraordinary about it. Overall, I enjoy the sound that comes out of it.

While some people might prefer in-ears for better sound quality, I personally prefer this type of AirPods design because it hangs on my ear and does not strain my ears after wearing it for long hours.
Battery life
I’m actually very impressed with the battery life here. We can get about 5 hours of listening time at 100% volume – the maximum possible. You can get much more than 5 hours if you lower down the volume because volume correlates to battery consumption.
The case provides for about 5 more charges – which I think is surprisingly good.
Should you buy the Xiaomi Mi Air2 SE?
I think the new Xiaomi Mi Air2 SE is very different compared to the first generation of the Xiaomi Mi True Wireless Earbuds. But, then again, it sounds good. Though if you want to wear a good pair of true wireless earphones – not earbuds – then this is a good choice.

Over at Banggood, the price of the Mi Air2 SE is just at about USD $38.99. Or for Malaysians, you can get it at Shopee for only about RM70. That’s a great price for all that the Mi Air2 SE offers!

Where to buy?

Banggood
Shopee
Lazada

vivo details its R&D department over at Tokyo for breaking boundaries of mobile imaging

vivo’s leap in mobile imaging in recent years has seen big steps in terms of implementing ultra-wide-angle, telephoto, and Time of Flight (ToF) solutions so surely they have some sort of strong R&D forces behind those technologies. So, vivo shared some details just about that a couple of days ago.

Established back in 2019 over at Shimbashi, Tokyo, the R&D center is created to perform pre-research alongside the development of future-proof technologies. However, the dates can go as far back as 2017 when the smartphone market has been torn apart with intense competition among brands with vivo not being one of the major players in the sector at that time. Aimed to become one, vivo has decided to take a step ahead and found their R&D center specifically in Japan.
Why Japan you asked? Executive Masazumi has explained that his country has more than 100 years of history in mobile imaging development and has undergone huge transitions from film to digital imaging, including lenses, sensors, and motors. With tons of industrial experience and maturity under the belt, it makes sense for vivo to have a Japanese team to take care of the research work.
Advantage on one side, surely there’s some disadvantage in some aspects and that’s where the issue arises in the transition between R&D  to mass production as prototypes need to be tested in China so shipping everything costs time and money. Not only that, as the Tokyo R&D team uses Japan-based materials that sometimes are unique to them to a local extent, the vivo HQ over in China may have some complications that result in slowdowns in the development process.

As the Tokyo R&D center grows, it has moved from Shimbashi to Gochome, Chuo-ku, the central area of Tokyo, and its focus has gradually expanded from mobile phone imaging to more niche areas such as car cameras, sports cameras, and industrial cameras. As digital office becomes more mainstream since 2020, both teams from China and Japan exchange value insights through online discussions with the Chinese taking care of market research and future predictions work while the Japanese delve deep into the requirements and engineering tasks.
When asked what form will the mobile imaging components take in the future? Masazumi predicted that every single one of them would be included within the sensor itself as everything becomes more miniature as the manufacturing process becomes better.

Malaysians earned close to RM1400 in average on Carousell during the MCO period

Carousell has released a new study on the behavior of buying and selling for Malaysian users during the MCO period and surprisingly, on average each person turned pre-loved items into RM1,396 worth of cash with over 690,000 transactions starting from February until June.

Most of the users have done this for economic reasons either to help to generate income during the period where lots of people have lost their job or for those buying are looking for good deals to fulfill their shopping spree without breaking the bank. Carousell expects the total sales involved could grow another RM640 million. Hot items include electronics and fashion with the former category reaching 1.2 million searches related to Work From Home.
On the other hand, Malaysians took to Carousell to continue selling their homemade delights despite the closure of physical bazaars during the month of Ramadan. The app allowed users to search within a 10km radius of their location to narrow down the food nearest to them. One of the sellers named Fiza has found a new way of selling her family recipe of pineapple tarts through the platform.
During the MCO period, we need no more explanation about the shortages of face masks. Another user, Yanice, started crafted and selling handmade masks on Carousell because her family business had to take a pause and she managed to sell over 200 masks, using Carousell Protection, Carousell’s trusted escrow payment solution, and integrated shipping methods in each of her transactions, so that she could abide by social distancing measures.
Looking to cash out some of your rarely or no longer in used items? With the stats backed by the company itself, why not give the platform a try?

Facebook needs a copyright claim system. Here’s why.

As the world of social media blooms, we can reach people through mindblowing speed. Whenever we see something interesting, we can instantly share it with everyone. Even Facebook Page owners want to share those hot, trending content as well.
As a content creator, I can tell you that many Facebook Pages outright steal content from other creators on other platforms and upload them to Facebook without crediting the creator. Some are deliberately deleting the watermark too, if possible.

But it happens everywhere…
Yeah, true. The meme culture has this tendency to not care about crediting the creator. If something is trending, then well – everyone wants a piece of that!
For example, the latest trend – Plash Speed. At this point, it’s viral. That video, which is made by Korean YouTuber, 장삐쭈.

It’s a video that we can all relate to. Buying a game console but need to conceal its existence to avoid getting walloped. We’ve all been in a similar situation before with our parents or spouse. And hey – that video is funny.
The original video was uploaded to YouTube on 20th June 2019 and has garnered a total of 5,838,988 views as of now. Unfortunately, the subtitles are available in Korean language only.
As for content creators, watermark everything. Your videos, pictures, everything. Leave a big, obvious watermark dab smack in the middle of your content. Even if it’s ugly, make sure you get proper credit if your content gets stolen.

This is definitely the device that everyone is waiting to see what Samsung shows off since they are indeed the pioneer and visionaries behind foldable displays and foldable phones. And now we finally know what that phone is truly about.
The Samsung Galaxy Fold is obviously the foldable smartphone that has two parts – one smaller 4.6-inch display when folded, and another larger 7.3-inch display when unfolded. Samsung achieves this folding ability by employing a unique gear hinge system that folds and unfolds the hinge smoothly.

Samsung also packed the Galaxy Fold with lots of cameras. There are a total of 6 cameras – 3 main cameras at the back, one while folded, and two more when unfolded. We are still unsure what these cameras do just yet – but we expect it to be following the Galaxy S10 series smartphones’ cameras.

We do also know that Samsung has a physical fingerprint sensor at the side since the demonstration showed it off. The other two features that were heavily emphasized during the short demonstration of the Galaxy Fold are the triple app multitasking and also app continuity.

App continuity is simple and pretty self-explanatory – the applications transfers between screens seamlessly while folding and unfolded. Imagine navigating through Google Maps while folded but you need to go on to the big screen. You can just unfold and Google Maps will just display on the big screen seamlessly.

As for the triple app multitasking, you can have a total of 3 different apps running side by side. We were shown that the Galaxy Fold can have YouTube, WhatsApp, and Browser running at the same time – all at once.
Samsung also touts its new innovation in the battery department. Since the phone is literally split into two different parts, the battery is also split into two parts, totaling up to a capacity of 4,380mAh.

The Galaxy Fold also comes with 12GB of RAM and it is the first smartphone to come with 512GB of UFS 3.0 storage technology.
The Galaxy Fold will be available starting April 26th 2019 and the price starts of USD $1,980. That translates to about RM8,051.67. We will update more information as we know more about the local launch, availability, and price.

New 5G unlimited plans coming out from U Mobile can be enjoyed from as low as RM20 per month

As the telco industry prepares to scale up the commercial availability of 5G in Malaysia, U Mobile is taking a step ahead today by announcing a couple of new 5G-ready prepaid plans.

Namely, the U25 and U35 plans, both of them are positioned to be the most affordable 5G-ready prepaid plans to date with unlimited data and calls for users to start blasting those HD videos whether through streaming or downloading their library to their device. Another special thing about the plans is a daily free “High-Speed Boost” redeemable via the MyUMobile app and somehow the speed cap will be unthrottled for 60 minutes towards both 4G and 5G connections.
As such, to mark the launch of this affordable 5G prepaid plan, the U25 will be made available at a promotional price of RM20 per month providing unlimited data at 3Mbps while U35 is at 6Mbps with a 3GB hotspot quota at RM35. To gain access to them, you’ll need to get the specific 5G-ready prepaid SIM pack which is valued at RM10 but comes preloaded with RM6 credit and 1GB of high-speed data. For the normal call and SMS rate, those are at 15 sens per minute and 12 sens per message.
More info about signing up for the new plan or porting in from a different telco brand can be acquired here.

TikTok partners with iflix to bring you iflix Snacks

In a very weird turn of events, TikTok has partnered with iflix to bring you iflix Snacks. For those who likes to eat while watching something on the TV, then this is exactly what it sounds like – snack-sized short-form videos on iflix.
This is the first type of such partnership from TikTok, and aims to reach audiences from 13 different countries with its collaboration. iflix Snacks has a bunch of different types of contents, varying from travel, comedy, pets, sports, and lifestyle to begin with – and more to be added in the future.

Viral videos from TikTok will be shown to iflix users via the “iflix and TikTok Present” channel.

“With short-form content rising in demand, today’s partnership with iflix couldn’t have come at a more opportune time as we look forward to serving millions of users with content that they desire and enjoy. This increasing trend is a precursor for consumer consumption habits all over the world, and more and more companies are beginning to leverage this as part of their content strategy.”
– Cheah Sheau Mei, User and Content Operations Manager, TikTok Malaysia
TikTok aims to increase awareness and exposure of its app’s offerings through their top video compilations featured on iflix as a start. Think of it as some sort of a “tip of the iceberg” type of strategy, and then reeling in more users into the platform later.
iflix, on the other hand, is to dive into the short-form type of content as an experiment.
“There’s no denying the popularity TikTok has on the user-generated content space, for both creators and consumers, especially amongst the coveted millennial and Gen-z demo. With the addition of their curated short-form video collections in our Snacks library, iflix affirms its commitment to delivering even more on-trend formats for the benefit of our users.”
– Mark Francis, iflix Chief Content Officer
This certainly is an unexpected partnership between TikTok and iflix. In any case, that means more people will get to watch short-form videos during lunch breaks, albeit on a different platform. Question is – will the videos be in vertical or horizontal?

Review – SilverStone LS02 RGB LED Strip

It’s the year 2017. Nothing is complete without RGB LEDs these days, and your PC case is no exception – no matter how old your PC case already is. This is where RGB LED strips like the SilverStone LS02 comes in. Get a unit of the SilverStone LS02, wire them up and stick them in your case. Instantly, your gaming rig will look much flashier.
Of course, you’ll have to check for compatibility first. You’ll need a motherboard that supports ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Aura, or get an RGB control box like the NZXT Hue+ or the SilverStone LSB01.

Unboxing
Funny enough, the SilverStone LS02 comes in a rather boring-looking box. It’s a tiny box, and that’s all it needs.

Opening up the box reveals two SilverStone LS02 RGB LED strips separated by a piece of paper that serves as both a partition and also a user manual. Clever packaging design there, SilverStone!

1 of 4

Digging everything out reveals two separate RGB LED strips and two Y-cables. You’ll need the Y-cable to connect the RGB LED strip from the motherboard to the LED strip – at least in my case with the ASRock X370 K4.
Left side connects to the RGB LED strip, whereas the right side connects to your motherboard’s RGB header.
Specs
Here are the specifications from SilverStone’s product page for the LS02. However, it does not reveal all of the finer details of the strip itself.

Model No.
SST-LS02

Material
18 pcs 5050 RGB LED with magnetic strip and adhesive tape

Pin definition
+12V, G, R, B*

Included Parts

RGB LED strip x 2
Y cable x 2**

Length
300mm

Wattage
1.44W (12V, 0.12A)

Tandem limits
5 pcs on each line

Weight
30g

Remarks

* Please check the control box and motherboard pin header that you want to connect are the same as LS02’s pin definition.
** Included Y cables support SilverStone’s RGB 4pin connectors and other market standard RGB 4pin connectors.

Each of these RGB LED strips have a total of 18 LEDs in it, and has both adhesive and magnet embedded on the strip itself for easy installation. Pretty common for RGB LED strips for PC cases these days.

However, the uncommon thing about the SilverStone LS02 is the finish that encases the RGB LED itself. Unlike other RGB LED strips that are encased in clear transparent rubber, SilverStone opted for a “special light diffusion material” because  “it disperses its colors smoother and with better uniformity” for the LS02. Of course, we’ll be testing this claim too.
You can also technically daisy chain a total of 5 of them in one line, as that’s the tandem limit that SilverStone advised.
Test system configuration

CPU Cooler
Noctua NH-D15

CPU
AMD Ryzen 7 1700

GPU
MSI GEFORCE GTX 1060 3GT OC

Motherboard
ASRock Fatal1ty X370 Gaming K4

Memory
Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 16GB

Primary Hard Drive
Plextor M8SeGN

Power Supply
SilverStone ET-650B 650W

Chassis
BitFenix Aurora

Fans
Noctua NF-F12

Others
SilverStone LS02 RGB LED Strip

Using the SilverStone LS02

Alright, so here’s the deal. RGB LED isn’t particularly my type of thing. I used the built-in magnets on the SilverStone LS02 and stuck it onto the BitFenix Aurora that we reviewed here – one at the top, another at the bottom. After that, I routed the included cables and powered it up.

Everything looks gorgeous!
With that said, the SilverStone LS02 is actually blindingly bright. Its white color isn’t true white and brings in a slight blue tint.
When it comes to color diffusion, I have to say that whatever SilverStone is doing with the “special light diffusion material”, it’s performing great. There are no “bright spots” even though my CPU heatsink block is in close proximity to the SilverStone LS02 strip.
A total of 18 RGB LEDs in 30cm length.
One small little point to highlight is that both ends of the RGB LED strip have about 5cm of cable coming off of it. This excess is where the connector is found. Though it offers flexibility, some might complain that the extra cable slack is annoying as it keeps curving upwards by itself. In the BitFenix Aurora however, there are some anchor points that hold the excess cable length down.
Wrapping up the SilverStone LS02
It’s an RGB LED strip – and there isn’t much to talk about it. It’s bright and can stick to any surface as it has both adhesive and magnet. Other than that, it has a slight blue tint when all red, green, and blue values are maxed out.
The main point that I can tell you here is that the SilverStone LS02 is priced at RM89 over at Lelong, or at USD $26.99 at Amazon US.
Is it worth the price? That truly depends if you need an RGB LED strip. Make sure your motherboard has compatible RGB LED headers, else you’ll have to fork out even more money to buy a RGB LED control box.
Now, over to you – are you going to get one? Let us know down in the comments below!

Introducing the Samsung Galaxy S20 series

Today is the exciting day as Samsung just announced the brand new Galaxy S20 series of devices. After months of leaks, it is finally here and we now know its specs and its capabilities. And here are the information that we have right now.
The new Samsung Galaxy S20 series will have have a total of 3 devices – like the Galaxy S10 series – but with a different naming scheme. There is the Galaxy S20, the S20+, and also the S20 Ultra. This big leap of a number is because there is a new generation in connectivity as 5G is starting to be adopted widely.

The Galaxy S20 series of smartphones are available in 5G variants too. Both the Galaxy S20+ and the Galaxy S20 Ultra also support both sub-6 and mmWave bands, while the Galaxy S20 supports sub-6 only. All the three phones within the Galaxy S20 lineup support non-standalone and standalone 5G networks.

Another major highlight that was teased and leaked for months was its cameras. Since Xiaomi was the first company that is using Samsung’s 64MP GW1 and 108MP HMX sensors, we all know that Samsung is going to up the ante on their own flagship smartphone – and here it is. These 3 Galaxy S20 phones have different main camera sensors:

Galaxy S20: 48MP
Galaxy S20+: 64MP
Galaxy S20 Ultra: 108MP

The Galaxy S20 and Galaxy S20+ are both capable of zooming up to 30x, while the Galaxy S20 Ultra has 100x zoom. That’s why it has the phrase “space zoom” at the camera hump.
The Galaxy S20 Ultra also has something called nona-binning. It technically pixel-binning and it combines 9 pixels into 1, resulting in a 12MP picture. Of course, there is an option to choose to take 108MP pictures too.
The new Galaxy S20 series can also take 8K videos, which I am honestly surprised to know. Currently, there are only a handful of 8K TVs, and this phone is able to capture 8K videos already. We’ve experienced gaming on an 8K TV by Samsung too, by the way.

Of course, the Galaxy S20 series has the crazy new Super Steady OIS system that we have seen on the Galaxy S10 Lite a month ago.
Samsung also partnered with Netflix so that renowned directors can capture bonus content with the Galaxy S20.
Another key highlight is that the Galaxy S20 series also comes with a 120Hz display for the highest possible refresh rate on a smartphone yet. It is also surprising that Samsung is partnering with Microsoft to bring Forza Street to the Galaxy Store. This is a beautiful game that is ported over to Android, exclusive for Samsung smartphones. It’s just mindboggling to know how powerful the Galaxy S20 series of smartphones really are.
The Galaxy S20 series will be available in these colors:

Galaxy S20: Cosmic Grey, Cloud Blue, Cloud Pink
Galaxy S20+: Cosmic Grey, Cloud Blue, Cosmic Black
Galaxy S20 Ultra: Cosmic Grey, Cosmic Black

Neffos N1 Announced Alongside With Neffos C7 & C5A

Neffos, the smartphone division from TP-Link – the renowned company that makes great networking devices – is announcing their brand new slew of smartphones in the Spring Launch 2018. This includes their brand new flagship smartphone, the Neffos N1, and two more entry level smartphones, the Neffos C7 and Neffos C5A.
Neffos N1
Firstly, the Neffos N1. We’ve already reviewed it here, and I have to say that the performance is actually very good. For the price of just RM1,099 – I think that quite worth it.

The Neffos N1 is equipped with the MediaTek Helio P25 chipset that has an octa-core processor and ARM Mali-T880MP2 graphics, coupled with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage. The screen is a 5.5-inch 1080p IPS LCD display that is sufficient for today’s use, though I do wish that Neffos would opt for the 18:9 FullView display instead. Everything in the Neffos N1 is powered by a 3,260mAh battery.
Though we do understand why that Neffos chose this screen size as it has a very familiar design indeed. Even the camera functions are similar. The Neffos N1 comes with a stereoscopic dual-camera system as described here. It has a 12MP+12MP camera setup at the rear, and another 8MP selfie camera.

From our review, we have stated that the Neffos N1 is indeed a very good smartphone for the price. The chipset is fabricated with 16nm FinFET technology, hence its efficiency is up to today’s standard. With that said, this is also the one smartphone with the lowest price that has a fast charger. Yes, the Neffos N1 has a 9V 2A charger too!
Let’s not forget that it has a silence switch toggle at the side too – just like the OnePlus series of smartphones.

RM4,999 is the least you need to shell out for one of the latest ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED series laptops

ASUS Malaysia has officially announced the arrival of the Zenbook 14 OLED series laptop, at least a couple of models today.

The two models in question are the Zenbook 14X OLED and the Zenbook 14 Flip OLED but we’ll start with the former. The 14.5-inch powerhouse continues the premium thin and light design with its durable yet thin chassis at just 15.5mm thin and 1.5kg of weight. The style point has further been bumped because of the brand new Plasma Ceramization coating process covering it in colors of Inkwell Gray and Sandstone Beige.

Running the latest 13th Gen Intel Core H-series mobile processor plus an optional NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 GPU together with a maximum of 32GB RAM, the machine can do some pretty good weightlifting no matter gaming or some photo/video editing.
Let’s not forget the screen which is a gorgeous 2.8K OLED panel with 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, 120Hz refresh rate, and 0.8ms response time that supports HDR thanks to the DisplayHDR True Black 600 certification and PANTONE Validated sticker.

On the other hand, the 360 rotation department shows off the Zenbook 14 Flip OLED that is even more portable and light because it doesn’t have a discreet GPU but rather the iGPU-equipped 13th Gen Intel Core i5-1340P with Xe Graphics but in exchange for that, the 75Whr battery will power the device for much longer than the Zenbook 14X.
Memory configuration-wise, it holds 16GB RAM and 512GB of PCIe SSD. On the other hand, the screen is the same as well – 2.8K OLED, 120Hz, 0.8ms response time, DisplayHDR True Black 600, and so on. But, it also supports touch with the optional ASUS Pen 2.0 MPP 2.0 Stylus and as a Flip device, it can be turned to any angle without any issue.
A good range of I/O has also been provided as well which includes 2x Thunderbolt 4, 1x USB-A 3.2, and 1x HDMI 2.1.
Starting Prices
The ASUS Zenbook 14X OLED and Zenbook 14 Flip OLED are mostly getting ready for late March or early April but selected models are already within the market to be purchased.
But anyway here’s the starting price.

Zenbook 14X OLED

Intel Core i7-13700H (16GB RAM + 1TB PCIe SSD) – From RM5,999 (Available now)
Intel Core i5-13500H (16GB RAM + 512GB PCIe SSD) – From RM4,999 (Available early April)
Intel Core i9-13900H with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 – From RM6,999 (32GB RAM + 1TB PCIe SSD) (Available early April)

Zenbook 14 Flip OLED – At RM5,499 (Available late March)

TCL has foldable devices coming in year 2020

We’re now at the crossroads whereby one path is heading towards an even fuller view display with punch hole screens, popup cameras, and even slider phones – yet there is another path to foldable devices. Since rumors about Samsung’s foldable device imminent launch date is the same as the Galaxy S10, it’s just a few days ahead. Other companies are trying also jumping in the bandwagon, albeit not ready for another year.
TCL, the manufacturer for both BlackBerry and Alcatel smartphones, is working on at least 5 devices with flexible displays. CNET reported that according to the TCL’s rendering and patent images, there are at least two tablets, two smartphones, and one more phone that wraps around like a wristwatch.

CNET also reported that a TCL executive has said that they will “release its foldable device in 2020” but did not disclose which device in particular that will be released.
Looking at the rendering, the foldable tablet and smartphone have the same concept – one variant that folds inwards and another that folds outwards. Though, it might depend on how brands like Alcatel and BlackBerry wants their smartphones to fold.

While TCL is one of the companies that have gone ahead and showed off some devices with foldable devices, we expect more of such devices to appear in MWC2019 that is happening end of this month. We are also expecting Samsung to launch its foldable Galaxy device next week.
2019 is surely the year of foldable devices with Samsung carrying the torch. After all, flexible screens are all AMOLED.

Cooler Master PBT Keycap Mechanical Keyboards Launched; MasterKeys L PBT At RM359

It’s no surprise that Cooler Master did indeed recognize Malaysia as a place with keyboard enthusiasts – hence the Cooler Master’s MasterClackers Keyboard Meetup 2017 was held earlier this year in Yellow Apron. We had fun, obviously – but that was when the PBT keycap mechanical keyboards from Cooler Master were first shown off. Introducing the MasterKeys L PBT and MasterKeys S PBT. One full-sized keyboard and another TKL keyboard, both with PBT keycaps.

These two keyboards use genuine German Cherry MX switches and added extra thick 1.5mm PBT keyboards. As a treat for gamers, Cooler Master adds in 7 extra red keycaps to accentuate the “gaming” keys, too.

Built to withstand even the fastest of fingers, the keycaps on these boards are injection molded, double laser-etched, and fiber reinforced. They are resistant to solvents, mechanically strong and do not “shine” like traditional ABS keycaps tend to do over time. With these, you won’t have to worry about wear and tear due to sweaty fingers and with the 50 million keystrokes provided through its Cherry MX switches, this keyboard is sure to last years of marathon gaming. The MasterKeys L PBT and MasterKeys S PBT are ideal choices for gamers and heavy typers.
The MasterKeys L PBT is now available for purchase at a suggested retail price of RM359 in both Cherry MX Blue or Red switches, while the MasterKeys S PBT with the same pricing will be available end of November.
I’m aiming for this one.
Visit Cooler Master’s Lazada store to get it now!

Google secretly building 3D maps for Malaysia?

A few days ago I was in the heart of the city with  walking directions shown on Google Maps on my phone. Being a fan of the free maps service by Google, I was jealous of what the United States was getting – the 3D maps, debuting with the Motorola Xoom together about two years ago.

3D maps, certainly are useful to see which part of the building you are facing, especially for those symmetrical buildings. This is different from Google Earth though, as Earth offers you exploration but not navigations or directions.
Accidentally, I discovered that Google is building the 3D maps in Malaysia, first off with some of the major buildings in the heart of the hottest places in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

As far as I can find, 3D maps is only available for Pavillion KL (3.148853,101.713405), Suria KLCC (3.157643,101.712188) and the KL Tower (3.152828,101.703832). These links can view all the three places in 3D, but the panning is only possible on mobile.
Do check it out now!

To encourage the creation of things that are more innovative and ambitious, Epic Games is also happy to provide capital and funding alongside technical expertise towards teams and studios to realize the next potential title of the year.
With the update debuted in August, the Unreal Engine 4.27 contains new key features that can help creators across game dev, animation, film, entertainment, and media to harness greater visual effects that include in-camera visual effects geared towards virtual/augmented production, multi-user collaborating environment, lighting enhancements and ray tracing to bring life-like virtual experiences to a wide range of audience.
With all of these, perhaps Epic Games is aiming for a service of full suite covering game development + publishing + platform support kind of offering towards Malaysian studios? If true, this is really a great thing to look forward to.

As for the Redmi Note 10 Pro MFF edition, it is basically the Gradient Bronze variant of the device coupled with a purposely printed design for the box and a complimentary Mi Fan Postcard for commemorative purpose.

An unknown LG device leaked; possibly the next Nexus

We’ve seen rumours about the upcoming Nexus 5 is also by LG, and this picture might show you what it might look like. evleaks with their famous leaks (obviously stated by their name) got an interesting image of the phone.

As the leaked images shown here looks undeniably large with its speculated 5-inch screen, the curves around the bezel resembles the current Nexus 4, with the earpiece, sensors and front-facing camera being repositioned and with a much thinner bezel around all four edges – especially at the top and bottom.
With the new camera position being shown here might also be hinting a new sensor being present in the phone.
This might as well be the next Nexus, but seems a little too early to have leaks, yet there’s an LG logo right at the front – which Google will never allow. A more reasonable answer is that this might be the LG Optimus G2.
As this is still an unofficial device, this phone might never see light in the consumer market at all.

Review – ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED UX3402: Near perfection

If you’re interested in this video… Then lemme tell you this – the ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED UX3402 that we have here, isn’t that much different from the Zenbook 14X OLED Space Edition UX5401 that we have reviewed recently. There are a few differences, though – and that is what makes this laptop a more logical purchase compared to the Space Edition.
Why do I say that? Well, let’s find out in today’s video.

Okay, we’ll start with the obvious – the looks. Since this is a “standard” edition laptop, there is no fancy design on this laptop. However, this laptop also commemorates the 30th anniversary of ASUS.

Yea, we have a Star Trek-looking logo and I honestly prefer this design over the concentric circles that we’ve been seeing so far. Better yet, this new matte design doesn’t catch any fingerprints too.

There is another thing that’s new – the hinge. This supremely shiny, glossy hinge is a combination of old and new technologies. Firstly, opening it up beyond 90º will cause the ErgoLift to engage, lifting up the laptop at a slight angle to provide a better typing experience and also some cooling airways – and the hinge also allows the screen to open all the way to 180º flat.

But it doesn’t have a touchscreen… and that is one of my biggest complaints about this laptop, honestly. Speaking of the screen, this is an OLED screen with a resolution of 2880×1800 pixels and 90Hz refresh rate. Sure sounds amazing on paper, right? And rightly so – because this specific laptop comes with what I assume to be a higher grade of OLED panel?

You see, in the past, when we reduce the brightness below 55%, it becomes DC dimming. For this laptop, it doesn’t. It seemingly maintains that DC dimming all the way to 1% brightness – which is a huge plus point.

As for color accuracy, when we tested it at 100 nits of brightness, it can reach 100% sRGB and 99.96% of DCI-P3 – but that’s not surprising since all ASUS OLED laptops we tried in the past have really good color accuracy.

What’s different here, is the maximum brightness. Our colorimeter reported more than 400 nits of brightness – which means it is still not bright enough to be used under direct sunlight but should do fine under shade.

Then comes the keyboard. I was typing the entire script of this review in complete darkness because there was an electricity outage in my house at that time and I thought that was a fantastic time to test the battery life of this laptop.
I think it is only recently that ASUS has changed to this new big-sized and centered but thin legends on the keycaps. I like this look. The keys also feel very springy and have a good travel distance. It also feels great to bottom out as it does have some bounceback, making it kinda fun to type on.

There is one thing that I personally like – and that is the placement of the power button. It’s one column to the left of the rightmost key. I think those who have muscle memory of mashing the top right corner for delete will appreciate this keyboard layout. And yes, there is a dedicated print screen key too.

The trackpad is fairly basic. It does what it needs to do and has good tracking, good palm rejection, and it also comes with the NumberPad feature too. I mean, you can use that if you want to.

As for the specs – this laptop comes with the new family of mobile processors, the Intel Core i7-1260P. We’ve talked more about the 3 families within the 12th Gen Intel Core Processors in another video – so check it out here.

Here are some quick screenshots to show you what the Intel Core i7-1260P is capable of. Combined with 16GB of DDR5 at 4800MHz – and I’ve also tried some gaming on this laptop too. The performance is… still bottlenecked by the Iris Xe GPU. I mean, this is pretty much the same Iris Xe GPU from 11th Gen U-series processors. The new P-series chip is even the same as last generation’s high-powered U-series processors too!
You know, it’s funny that this morning, I read an article by NotebookCheck stating that the Core i5-1240P can outperform the Core i7-1260P. I find that to be amusing because we’ll surely revisit this point later in the video.
So what’s new with the 12th Gen chips, in general, is the separation of P-cores and E-cores, which are aptly named Performance cores and Efficiency cores. This definitely plays a role in prolonging the battery life as we can easily get more than 8 hours from a single charge while using it in silent power profile and at 55% brightness while typing this script and with a few Chrome tabs opened.

One more thing that I realized is that this laptop comes with a 65W USB-C charger. I have not used this charger at all and just left it in the box because I just use the Ugreen 100W GaN charger. It’s more convenient and declutter my desk.

And let’s talk about the ports available now. I’d say the ports are well-rounded as it has USB-A and USB-C, and also a full-sized HDMI port. I think this is what most people want when it comes to ports on a laptop.
Upgradability and serviceability are two more things that I need to highlight here. Opening this laptop is another problem as it uses Torx screws, and there are two more hidden screws underneath the rubber padding at the two corners at the hinge side. I really hate this.

Once we’ve opened up, like many other ASUS laptops that were released recently, nothing can be upgraded. We can only swap out the SSD and WiFi chip if we want to. Both fan and heatsink can also be serviced easily.

Then, we have nothing else to see in her, so let’s close it back.
Should you buy the ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED UX3402?
So, at the end of the day, should you buy the ASUS Zenbook 14 OLED UX3402? Well, there are two different versions available:

i7-1260P/16GB RAM/1TB SSD (Ponder Blue) – RM5,599
i5-1240P/16GB RAM/512GB SSD (Aqua Celadon / Ponder Blue) – RM4,399

I’ll say, the Core i5 model is actually very good in terms of the value that it offers. This is ultimately still a thin and light laptop with supremely long battery life – it’s just that ASUS added a magnificent high-resolution OLED screen to it and we can still play some games at the side.
The only thing missing on this laptop is a touchscreen. Other than that, I think it’s a fantastic laptop in its own league.

Review + Discount – Sudio T2: Literally pretty and affordable

Sudio just released the new Sudio T2 – their brand new pair of wireless earbuds – comes in a very nice and fancy-looking design. We have all 4 colors of the Sudio T2 with us today – the usual black and white, sand color, and then this new jade color.

There are a lot of upgrades going on with this pair of TWS earbuds – so let’s take a look at it.

Starting off with the packaging. I’d say the packaging has shrunk down in size to be compact while still retaining all of the fancy packaging design and accessories inside the box.

Opening it up and see what’s inside – we have the Sudio T2 itself sitting in this cradle.
Then under the cradle, we have 3 more things. We have a box that houses all the eartips. There are a total of 4 different eartip sizes to choose from – XS, M, L, and XL. These eartips are also using a special type of design as the eartips include a mesh – which means the entire eartip can be washed and cleaned easily.

And oh – in this compartment, we have a microfiber cloth that also tells us to register the product in Sudio Sphere to claim an extended warranty. It’s 3 years of international warranty, by the way.
Very high-quality microfiber cloth, by the way.
In the other compartment, we have a single, short USB-A to USB-C cable in the matching color.

Finally – there’s a user manual underneath everything which we’ll definitely talk about later since the Sudio T2 is quite… complicated.
Okay, so let’s talk about the earbuds themselves. The Sudio T2 comes in a case that is shaped like a pebble and I absolutely like this cute little design. It’s still rather easy to handle despite having such a rounded shape, by the way.

At the back of the case, we have the USB-C charging port. That button at the bottom is to reset the Bluetooth connection.

Opening up the case, the Sudio T2 has a very nice hinge and it doesn’t just flop around. Taking out the earbuds is also very easy, by the way.
The earbuds themselves are pretty similar to some of the best earbud shapes that I’ve worn. The shape is clean and doesn’t have any protruding stem – which keeps the whole design clean.

For each side of the earbud, there are multiple different microphones – and one of them is pointing downward to the wearer’s mouth – so it will definitely perform better. Sudio also claims the Sudio T2 to have “beamforming microphones”.

And now – let’s try listening to some music. I have tried the Sudio T2 with a bunch of different music. I think it sounds amazing for this generation, honestly. The bass level is thumpy and the vibrations are great, while the mids and highs are also great as I was able to enjoy my big band jazz music so much.

There are even more features for the Sudio T2 too. The silver ring on the earbuds is actually a touch panel. You can play or pause music, go next or previous track, and also control the volume. That’s pretty standard.

But the Sudio T2 also comes with ANC and transparency mode. Just touch and hold to cycle between normal mode, ANC mode, and transparency mode. I gotta say, ANC mode and transparency mode does work but it’s not that impactful.

I am also just… very confused since I don’t know which mode I am in. Let me explain why – when I’m cycling between normal mode, ANC, and transparency mode, it doesn’t tell me in words. What I hear is a wind wooshing sound, then a dramatic ding dong, and then a chime.
I can confirm what the wooshing sound is for ANC since I can feel the pressure building up in my ears, but the ding dong and chime? I can’t tell which is normal mode and which is transparency mode.
Also, because there is no app for the Sudio T2, it’s quite confusing.

But then, the battery life – it’s supremely good. I used the Sudio T2 in normal mode and it lasts for a good 7-ish hours of listening time in just one single charge. The case can charge the earbuds for like 3-4 times more, and I’m just liking the battery life overall.

Overall, I think the Sudio T2 is a big improvement – and a lower price from its predecessors too.

What’s the price?
The new Sudio T2 retails for RM549. For the price, I’d say it’s actually pretty good. It sounds good and the microphone performs well – it’s just that swapping between transparency, ANC, and normal mode isn’t particularly straightforward.
With that said, the payment of RM549 can also be paid in just one bill, or split it into 4 instalments.
