Unbox Samsung’s 2022 Lineup, Designed for Innovative Personalized Experiences

2022 Products Offer New Cutting-Edge Technologies, Features and Designs for a Re-Defined Experience Across Multiple Devices

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today showcased its 2022 line-up of Neo QLED 8K, Soundbars, Accessories and Sustainability initiatives at its virtual Unbox & Discover event. With this new line-up, Samsung aims to redefine the role of television by creating beautifully designed, cutting-edge screens that offer more than just entertainment. This year’s products and features take the screen to new heights by providing one central hub to play, connect, work and more.

“We are focused on creating a seamless experience across all of our products, which allows consumers to effortlessly enjoy all their benefits. The 2022 Neo QLED 8K is designed to fulfil the needs and empower the passion of our consumers, and the innovations are sparked by their experiences,” said Jong-Hee (JH) Han, Vice Chairman, CEO and Head of Samsung Electronics’ DX (Device eXperience) Division. “Neo QLED 8K also has the power to unlock
new
 experiences as the most important device at the centre of the home.”

Samsung’s 2022 portfolio was developed from the vision of ‘Screens Everywhere, Screens for All,’ with TVs at the centre of users’ home and daily lives. In line with this vision, Samsung created devices that seamlessly connect to provide deep personalization and connectivity ensuring there is a screen fit for every occasion and lifestyle. Historically, TVs and screens have been mainly associated with the act of “watching,” but Neo QLED 8K aims to change this by expanding the user experience.

Neo QLED 8K: The Best Gets Better

The 2022 Neo QLED 8K has been upgraded to bring the large screen experience to another level. At the heart is the Neural Quantum Processor 8K. The latest processor has 20 independent neural AI networks, each analyzing the content’s characteristics and picture quality for optimal viewing, regardless of the source.

The Neural Quantum Processor 8K also powers a new technological innovation – Real Depth Enhancer. This scans the screen and maximizes contrast with the background by enhancing the object while keeping the background unprocessed. It works similarly to the way human eyes perceive images in real life so the object on screen stands out against the background.

The processor, combined with the powerful Quantum Mini LEDs, creates lighting that is precise and controlled so bright areas stay bright and the dark space around it stays dark – a feature we have dubbed Shape Adaptive Light Control. For example, the full moon will stay bright against the black night sky.

In fact, Samsung’s all new 2022 QLED received the world’s first ‘Pantone Validated’ certification in display from Pantone, the global authority on color and creator of the Pantone Matching System (PMS) – meaning the models authentically reproduce more than 2,000 colors as well as the newly added 110 skin tone shades found in Pantone’s guidelines. Additionally, these brilliant colors are comfortable to watch with the new EyeComfort Mode.

The feature uses AI technology to automatically adjust the brightness and color temperature of the screen based on how light or dark the room is combined with the sunset/sunrise information to optimize the most comfortable viewing experience.

Immersive Dolby Atmos Sound with Smart Features

For true immersion, TVs and screens need powerful and nuanced sound to match the rich colors and sharp details. The Neural Quantum Processor 8K’s AI analyzes what is on screen in real-time so that the Adaptive Sound features can track and move between speakers to precisely match the movement on screen.

In QN900B, a flagship Neo QLED 8K model, all the sounds come from a 90W 6.2.4 channel audio system, featuring new top channel speakers and Dolby Atmos with Object Tracking Sound Pro. This technology has also been applied to voice recognition with Voice Tracking Sound, so that sound effects and voices truly follow the movement across the screen.

Samsung is also introducing Wireless Dolby Atmos to its Neo QLED 4K and 8K TVs– this means pristine audio quality without the clutter of HDMI cables. Wireless Dolby Atmos will also be applied to Samsung’s new 2022 Ultra Slim Soundbar, designed for an immersive audio experience from a more aesthetically at a minimal setup.

Experiencing Your Screen

To ensure the experience is as seamless as possible, the 2022 line-up is outfitted with new and smarter features and user interface, allowing Samsung TVs and screens to become the central hub to watch content, control devices, play games, work out and more.

New Smart Hub
: This year, Samsung also unveiled Smart Hub, its new user interface, powered by Tizen. The all-new Samsung Smart Hub brings every aspect of the smart experience into one easy-to-navigate home screen. The new tab classifies features, settings, and content into three categories for a seamless user experience: Media, Gaming Hub, and Ambient.
Media:
The Media screen organizes users’ entertainment options – including video on demand, streaming, and Samsung TV Plus with 190+ free channels – and learns users’ preferences with machine learning to make smart recommendations across all platforms and services.
Gaming Hub
: Gaming Hub is a new game streaming discovery platform that bridges hardware and software to provide a seamless player experience. No downloads required, no storage needed. Samsung also announced partnerships with leading game streaming services – NVIDIA GeForce NOW, Stadia™ and Utomik, with more to come – to bring their libraries of games to the Gaming Hub. The new platform will be available later this year on select 2022 Samsung Smart TV models.
Ambient
: The Ambient screen enhances the home’s aesthetic, whether that means synchronizing the screen’s display with its surrounding décor or making a bold statement with eye-catching art.
Gaming Experience:
In addition to the all-new Gaming Hub, the 2022 line-up comes with specifications and features that are made for the ultimate gaming experience. They include four HDMI 2.1 supporting ports, Motion Xcelerator Turbo Pro 4K 144Hz gaming, Super Ultrawide GameView and Game Bar, making gaming more efficient and accessible for a fast-paced and streamlined experience. With these incredible picture quality and settings improvements, games will be more realistic and thrilling than ever. Samsung is also introducing an exclusive TV line-up for gaming in 43 and 50 inches in the near future.
Samsung Health:
 Samsung Health offers not only a wide variety of workout and wellness classes, but also ways to track your progress and routines. Users can easily track their fitness journey and activities on their TV and seamlessly sync with other devices such as Galaxy Watch4 Series to track progress in real-time on the screen.
SmartThings
: A critical component of the connected experience is Samsung’s SmartThings. With SmartThings, the screen becomes the central hub to conveniently control other home devices at a single point. This feature, included in Samsung TVs, takes advantage of the large screen to help users discover, view and control devices at-a-glance.
NFT Platform
: Finally, new in 2022 is Samsung’s NFT Platform, partnering with the industry leader,
Nifty Gateway
. Ambient mode will offer consumers a one-stop NFT platform to explore and display NFT digital arts on 2022 Neo QLED and QLEDs, a new way to collect and present art works.

Sustainability at the Core with ‘Going Green’

Samsung is always thinking about how the manufacturing process and the use of products impact the Earth’s environment, looking for ways to reduce its footprint and build a better future for the planet.

Eco-Packaging:
 Samsung is improving its eco-conscious packaging with 90% less ink while also removing the staples during production. Both improvements reduce waste and make it easier for recycling centres to process.
SolarCell Remote:
The SolarCell remote also received an upgrade for 2022. It is 88% more efficient than the previous 2020 models. They are now completely battery-free and can now be charged through 2.4GHz Radio Frequency Harvesting – drawing power from spare energy emitted by Wi-Fi routers.
Recycled Materials:
 Samsung’s 2022 TVs, monitors, digital signage, and remote controls use recycled resin. Notably, high-resolution monitors use recycled resin from ocean-bound plastic recovered in coastal areas that would otherwise have become marine hazardous waste.
The
Carbon Trust certification:

Samsung’s Neo QLED 8K/4K has achieved the ‘Reducing
CO
2
’ label from the Carbon Trust, demonstrating that the carbon footprint for the Neo QLED lineup is being reduced year over year.

Making it Personal with Accessories

Each consumer has their unique taste and needs when it comes to TVs, which is why Samsung created new accessories for its 2022 TVs that facilitate entirely new TV experiences.

Slim Fit Wall Mount
: For those who want to wall mount their screen, the Slim Fit Wall Mount allows the TV to lie flush against the wall while offering swivel up, down, and sideways for the perfect angle no matter where the viewer is seated.
Studio Stand
: In case the TV stand is preferred, the Studio Stand offers a unique and elegant way to display the Neo QLED 8K in an artistic fashion.
Auto Rotation
: The new accessory extends the rotating capabilities of The Sero to the Neo QLED 8K. Auto Rotation brings mobile experiences to the big screen, portrait art to the full screen, and MultiView experiences to new layouts. It can be used as a stand or wall mount so that whatever is on, the whole screen is filled to optimize the viewing experience.

What Is Continuous Integration?

In today’s technological world, it has become even more necessary for companies to optimize the quality, efficiency, and reliability of their business teams and operations. But how do they achieve this? The answer is through continuous integration, continuous delivery, and continuous deployment.

These three systems have become popular amongst several modern development teams, thanks to their ability to build, test, and deploy codes safely for production. This article highlights what continuous integration is as well as the benefits of some of the top benefits.

So What is continuous integration?

Continuous integration is a process that occurs when several software developers work on a specific project together. During this process, all developers involved in the project work on the same code, continuously integrating their code changes into the project as and when needed.

With every change comes an automatic update that every developer is made aware of through notifications. Using continuous integration, every small change made to the code is recorded in the system allowing for easy collaboration, scalability, and sustainability of the software code.

When used as a strategy, continuous integration becomes an integral part of any agile software development system, enabling large software development teams to work in unison, no matter where they are located geographically.

Integration improves code coverage

Thanks to
continuous integration continuous delivery
 servers, every piece of code you work on is high quality, always matching your development standard. How? The servers check all code inputs for test coverage. Inputting new software code without testing it can drastically reduce the team’s motivation, especially when the code comes with a low coverage percentage.

With CI servers and their consistent tests, you get to witness a steady increase in code coverage. This acts as a great motivator for the dev team to put their codes through more testing sessions, helping maintain code quality no matter the project.

It allows for smaller code changes

There are many non-technical benefits of using CI servers. Still, the essential technical benefit it delivers is the ability to apply changes to your software code in bits and pieces. Without continuous integration, developers usually upload a large batch of code changes, resulting in errors that are tough to identify.

The time spent looking for the source of errors and inaccuracies often prevents the team from moving forward with the project, which can affect the company’s overall productivity. With smaller code changes, running code coverage tests are easier, and issues were identified earlier. You’re also able to rectify any occurring issue in record time before too much work is added.

Continuous integration eliminates repetitive processes

Your development team always seeks to improve the quality of their work since that enables your company to engage in healthy competition with other companies in your industry. One of the easiest ways to ensure that every piece of code written meets your quality standard is by eliminating repetitive processes.

Repetitive processes can be avoided with continuous integration. This involves using automation as well as performance testing all the code according to a set of project standards. You and your
development team
 set these standards based on the vision for the company and all your projects. Automation ensures seamless workflow and that all codes imputed are tested in the same way before production.

It improves customer satisfaction

Your customers deserve the best when interacting with products, especially for the first time. Your customers’ first experience will determine whether they become loyal customers or if they end up looking for other alternatives. Keep customers happy by making great use of first impressions.

This means using continuous integration and deployment to work on new features and bug fixes instantly as a team. Keep abreast with all
new technologies
 and ensure that your product is always updated.

The better your systems, the better your product. And the better your product, the more dependable it is. With a dependable product, your company saves time and money.


What is the Pylon Protocol?

The Terra blockchain network has already launched a host of projects and the Pylon protocol is one that stands out. The Terra network was only introduced in 2018 but since then, it has experienced remarkable growth seeing it become one of the world’s top 5 blockchain networks.

Terra primarily aims at achieving widespread crypto adoption by creating seamless payment services alongside a host of other financial services.

After completing the Columbus-5 upgrade, Terra started working on various promising projects that attracted many crypto enthusiasts. This in turn led to the increased popularity of Terra. Some of the projects that have been released include StarTerra, Loop, Mirror, Anchor, and the Pylon protocol with Pylon famed for being one of the top projects in the network.

Many of the protocols released on Terra has been created to perform specific functions. For instance, Anchor was created for saving and borrowing purposes, Loop as an exchange, and Pylon is considered to be an incubator. In this article, we look at what the Pylon protocol is and the role it plays in the Terra ecosystem.

What is Pylon?

One of the main aims of Terra is creating a network that will allow global funds transfers, making payments, and solving some of the different financial challenges the global financial structure has faced. That is why Terra is committed to launching several projects to serve these purposes.

Pylon serves as the launchpad for all these projects. These projects utilize pylon and its native token MINE to kick things off. You can

Why use the Pylon Protocol?

Just like with the Terra protocol, where Luna holders have a say through governance in making decisions about important changes in the platform, the same applies with Pylon protocol.

MINE holders are considered to be part owners of the protocol and have the right to participate in major decisions such as the allocation of tokens and other basic functions.

While in traditional finance it is only wealthy individuals who have the right to be early investors, the Pylon protocol eliminates this inequality and provides an equal chance for everyone—even low capital investors.

How does the Pylon Protocol work?

One of the main projects from Pylon is creating a principal and protected means of payment where you can enjoy services without your principal investment being touched. The Anchor protocol in Pylon plays a huge role in achieving this by creating stable yields which will be used to cater for these subscriptions.

All investors will be required to is deposit money and spend the resulting yields. Users can be able to withdraw the full principal upon the expiry of a subscription.

How can you access Pylon?

Pylon can easily be accessed through the Pylon web app. Here users can buy, sell and trade MINE tokens as well as monitor their MNE token balances. In addition, MINE holders can use the web app to participate in governance, interact with other members of the Pylon community and provide proposals that can contribute to the growth of the platform.

Ylona Garcia to Perform at the VCT APAC Challengers Stage 1 Playoffs Finals

Fans will also have an opportunity to meet Ylona through a virtual backstage AMA session

After weeks of grueling competition, the 8 best teams from the VCT APAC Challengers Stage 1 Playoffs are gearing up for the APAC Finals Knockouts. Teams will be competing for a USD 150,000 prize pool, as well as the chance to represent the APAC region at VCT’s first global event of the year, Masters 1 Iceland, in April.

To celebrate the final stage of the regional VCT APAC Playoffs competition, Ylona Garcia is collaborating with VALORANT for an exclusive performance during the final day of competition on Sunday.

Ylona Garcia, a Filipino-Australian artist, is the singer and songwriter behind “Entertain Me”, the theme song for Neon, VALORANT’s first Southeast Asian Agent hailing from the Philippines.

The launch of Neon represented a cultural milestone for VALORANT globally and especially in Southeast Asia where Neon has been welcomed enthusiastically by local communities. Neon’s Agent trailer has racked up close to 8 million views since it was first released earlier this year.

“It’s an incredible honour to have “Entertain Me” be the anthem for Neon – it means so much to me to be able to highlight the Filipino culture alongside the introduction of Neon. The fans’ love for the song makes me even more excited to perform it at VCT, and I’m truly grateful to how they’ve embraced not only the song, but me as an artist as well,” said Ylona Garcia.

Apart from Ylona’s VCT APAC Playoffs Finals performance, a selected number of lucky VALORANT esports fans also have an opportunity to meet Ylona in a virtual backstage AMA session. Interested fans can register on Tier One Entertainment’s social pages:

5 Ways to Extend the Lifespan of Your MacBook

Everyone knows that the key to prolonging the life of
any electronic
 is to keep it well-maintained. But it doesn’t have to be that tough. Keeping your MacBook in good working order isn’t difficult, but it requires a few tweaks to keep it functioning at peak performance.

Keeping your Mac up-to-date can be a challenge with the constant influx of new features in macOS and iOS. In addition, the rise in production standards has caused a steady increase in the number of faulty components with each new model. The key to extending the lifespan of your mac lies in maintaining it the right way. Here are five simple ways to keep your MacBook running at peak performance for longer.

Image credit

Don’t strain your battery.

One of the most common reasons individuals upgrade their laptops is the battery. One of the primary reasons that some MacBooks survive longer than others is how customers care for the battery. If you have spent a significant amount of money on a MacBook, you should take good care of it.

For starters,

lithium-ion batteries
, which are used in the majority of MacBooks, do not perform well when subjected to variations. More harm than benefit comes from draining your battery to 0% capacity and charging it to 100% capacity. You should keep your battery charged between 30 percent and 80 percent of its capacity for maximum performance.

You can check your battery health via these steps
System Preference > Battery
 and
About This Mac > System Report > Power
.

Don’t leave your MacBook in direct sunlight

If you’ve ever left your MacBook in the sun for too long, you know what happens when a Mac is exposed to too much heat. The result? A melted Apple logo and a fried laptop.

If your MacBook is constantly getting hot without being in direct sunlight, you can find out how to fix your
overheating mac
 online.

Keep dust and moisture out of your keyboard

One of the most
common reasons for a MacBook malfunction
 is dust and moisture getting into the keyboard keys. This can cause keys to stick, which will throw off your typing. To clean your keyboard’s keys, gently remove any visible dirt and debris with a damp cloth or lint-free swab – rubbing alcohol is also an effective cleaner. Then dry the surface with a second dry cloth or paper towel.

If you’re more ambitious, you can use compressed air to blast out any remaining dirt or debris from those hard-to-reach crevices in your keyboard. Make sure you don’t squirt liquid directly onto your mac’s keypad or motherboard! The best way to avoid these issues altogether is to purchase a waterproof keyboard cover to protect against moisture and dirt from getting into the keypad.

Unplug your charger when not in use

The first and most important thing you can do to extend the life of your mac is to make sure you unplug the charger when not in use. It’s a common mistake, but it’s vital. Apple chargers are designed to work with the constant input of power, so leaving them plugged in when they’re not in use could shorten the lifespan of your computer. It’s also essential to make sure you don’t leave your laptop plugged into a power source for too long at a time. Doing this could damage your battery life and cause other complications.

Optimize storage

When was the last time you used the “Optimize Storage” function on your MacBook? If it’s been a while, now’s the time to revisit it. Optimizing storage is one of the easiest ways to maintain your device in working order. It can also be an effective way to save space on your mac by deleting unnecessary files, folders, and apps from your computer.

Keep software up to date

Keeping your software up to date is one of the most important things to keep your MacBook running smoothly. If you’re not familiar with this process, here’s how it works. Every time a new version of macOS or iOS is released, Apple will send out an update via the App Store (or Software Update if you have that feature enabled). The update may bring new features, bug fixes, and security enhancements.

Outdated software can cause more problems than you realize, so it’s best not to put off updating when prompted. The software update process begins automatically when new updates are available. However, if your mac isn’t set up to automatically download and install updates, you may want to turn this feature on by following these steps:
1) Launch System Preferences from your Finder or Dock. 2) Go to App Store > Updates > Automatically Check for Updates: On


67% of Malaysian Organizations Think They’ll Be Breached in 2022

Remote working and cloud infrastructure top cyber risk for organizations

Trend Micro Incorporated
, a global cybersecurity leader, today announced the findings of its latest global
Cyber Risk Index
 (CRI) for the second half of 2021, which revealed that 67% of organizations in Malaysia think they’ll be successfully attacked in the next 12 months, with 22% claiming this is “very likely” to happen.

The findings from the semi-yearly report aim to measure the gap between respondents’ preparedness of attack and their likelihood of being attacked. In the second half of 2021, CRI report surveyed more than 3,400 Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) as well as IT practitioners and managers across Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, and South America.

The CRI index value scoring is derived based on a numerical scale of -10 to 10, with -10 representing the highest level of risk. The current CRI in Malaysia stands at 0.37, an increase from the 0.08 CRI score recorded in the first half of 2021, indicating an improvement in the state of cybersecurity preparedness in the country.

In Malaysia, the report revealed that:

87% claimed to have suffered one or more successful cyber attacks in the past 12 months
31% suffered more than 7 cyber attacks that infiltrated networks/systems
26% had more than 7 data breaches of information assets
24% suffered more than 7 breaches of customer data over the past year

“To craft effective cybersecurity strategy, organizations must master the art of risk management. This is where reports like the CRI can be a great resource in highlighting areas of possible concern,” said Goh Chee Hoh, Managing Director for Trend Micro Malaysia and Nascent Countries. “As remote working and digital infrastructure threats persist, organizations should adopt a platform-based approach to optimize security whilst minimizing their security sprawl.”

The CRI report also highlighted the top five cyber threats in Asia-Pacific (APAC):

Phishing and social engineering – attacks that often scam and steal user data with fraudulent messages usually via emails or text with links or attachments
Botnets – cybercriminals that infiltrate and gain control of the organizations’ network
Fileless attack – a malware that uses legitimate tools built in the system to execute an attack
Ransomware – an attack that withholds critical or personal data, usually to extort some form of payment or exchange from its victims
Denial of Service (DoS) – an attack that disrupts and prevents the daily operational functions of its victims

ALSO READ

APAC organizations also ranked the top five negative consequences of an attack as stolen or damaged equipment, cost of outside consultants and experts, regulatory actions or lawsuits, reputation or brand damage, and customer turnover.

When it comes to security risks within IT infrastructure, organizations are most worried about mobile or remote employees, across third-party applications, and mobile devices such as smartphones.

This highlights the ongoing challenge many organizations have around securing the digital investments they made during the pandemic. Such investments were necessary to support remote working, drive business efficiencies and agility, and understand the corporate attack surface.

“Organizations are facing demanding security challenges every day, from software vulnerabilities, data breaches, to ransomware attacks and more,” said Dr. Larry Ponemon, chairman and founder of Ponemon Institute. “The semi-annual survey has been a tremendous asset in evaluating the rapidly evolving cyber risk landscape to help organizations improve security readiness and serving as a guidance in strategic planning.”

ASUS Announces AMD Radeon RX 6400 Graphics Cards

Power your 1080p gaming PC with the latest Radeon RX 6400 cards from ASUS

KEY POINTS

ASUS delivers two Radeon RX 6400 graphics cards for affordable and power-efficient mainstream 1080p gaming
ASUS Dual Radeon RX 6400 graphics cards pack flagship cooling features in a compact design
ASUS Phoenix Radeon RX 6400 graphics cards are a robust option built for longevity

ASUS today announced AMD Radeon RX 6400 graphics cards, optimized to provide an affordable and power-efficient choice for mainstream 1080p gaming rigs.

High resolutions and refresh rates may be the pinnacle of modern gaming, but 1080p is still the resolution of choice for most players today. Whether they are playing graphically intensive single-player games at 60 frames per second or competitive esports titles at 120 Hz and above, gamers need a card that can keep up.

The new Radeon RX 6400 is available in two flavors from ASUS: the ASUS Dual Radeon RX 6400 and the Phoenix Radeon RX 6400. The Dual variant, available now, uses two Axial-tech fans with barrier rings that direct airflow right to the heatsink, where it is needed most. 0db technology stops the fans entirely when the card reaches 52°C, giving users complete silence when not under an intense gaming load. Once gamers start fragging, the fans will spin up when GPU temperatures reach 60° C for quiet, performant cooling.

The ASUS Dual Radeon RX 6400 runs at a game clock of up to 2039 MHz, boosting up to 2321 MHz to eke every bit of performance out of the GPU when circumstances allow. Meanwhile, 4 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 64-bit bus provide the essentials for FHD gaming, and one HDMI
®
 2.1 and one DisplayPort
™
 1.4a port allow usage with any modern display or TV. An aluminum backplate keeps the card straight and stable while adding a premium bit of polish to a system, along with subtle lighting adding a touch more style to the geometric lines of the card’s shroud.

Canon Malaysia Marks 35 years of Delighting its Customers

Canon Marketing Malaysia (“Canon”), the global leader in digital imaging solutions, celebrates its 35th anniversary in Malaysia this year by renewing its commitments toward business transformation and its effort to maintain corporate resilience in the coming years.

According to Shunji Yoshikai, President and CEO of Canon Marketing Malaysia, in conjunction with Canon’s 35th anniversary, the company seeks to continuously delight its customers, and at the same time inculcate a sustainable development mindset throughout the company, striving a balance between business and environment.

As the company believes that people are the driving force behind its success, Canon takes pride in ensuring the health and wellbeing of its employees. Canon continues to push forward “Red Hot Passion”, a company-wide initiative to instill passion by guiding its employees towards a more positive, healthy, and optimistic lifestyle. “Big Smile with Canon”, a campaign under this initiative is curated to motivate and inculcate a friendly enterprising office environment by encouraging its employees to smile frequently.

“Smiling elevates one’s mood and helps create a pleasant environment which drives motivation and productivity. Moreover, since cameras are our main trade, smiling should come naturally to all Canon employees,” says Yoshikai.

In the last 35 years, Canon has grown rapidly and firmly established itself as a front runner in both the business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) market segments. With its wide range of innovative products, the company has emerged to be technologically adaptable, prioritizing and responding to the changing needs and preferences of its customers.

For instance, in the B2B segment, Canon extols product simplicity by utilising its “Business Can Be Simple” tagline as part of its mission. Under this segment, the company offers high-performing multi-function devices, scanners, projectors, videography equipment as well as network visual solutions. As for the B2C segment, Canon primarily offers a wide range of digital cameras, printers and projectors.

Today, Canon has evolved to become one of the most recognisable global brands and the brand of choice for a wide range of consumers – from novice to professional users.

For demonstrating its commitment towards excellence, Canon has been recognised for many industry achievements, including being named by global market research firm IDC in 2021 as the No. 1 Inkjet Printer brand for 26 consecutive years and No.1 Laser Printer brand for 7 consecutive years in Malaysia. In addition, Canon has also posted an enviable track record by winning Putra Brand Awards annually in the last 11 years. Last year, Canon was named the Gold winner for The People’s Choice at Putra Brand Awards, a testament to consumer’s steady trust in the brand over the years.

Being 35 years in the country, Canon’s philosophy is not only to sustain business growth, but also to be a responsible corporate citizen by demonstrating its commitment to preserving the environment, improving community care, and complying with various good corporate governance practices.

A key initiative to preserve the environment is “One Canon One Tree,” which saw over 8,000 trees planted since 2016 to help green the environment and protect wildlife such as the endangered Malayan Tapir.

To create equal opportunities for quality education, the company provides the Canon Seeding Fund financial aid to UOW Malaysia KDU students, helping many deserving students achieve their dreams through academic success. Meanwhile, initiatives such as the Canon Young Readers Programme are aimed at improving readership among children, especially those in the B40 community.

Canon is also a supporter of various humanitarian initiatives. As the pandemic affected the livelihoods of many, the company helped about 500 food-insecure households nationwide with essential food items. Most recently, Canon also contributed to food and medical supplies distribution efforts as the country faced one of its worst floods in years.

“The Kyosei Philosophy is at the centre of what we do, balancing business growth while prioritizing our commitment to the environment and community. Moving forward, as we strive to continuously innovate the limits of digital imaging solutions, we will also emphasise our responsibilities in using “Imaging for Good” to create a better world for our community,” added Yoshikai.

Looking back at the last 35 years, Yoshikai attributes its success to customers and business partners, who have been an integral part of its exciting corporate journey.

“We are incredibly grateful for the consistent support that our customers, business partners and vendors have given us throughout the years. Canon would not have grown to what it is today without the strong relationships we have built with our stakeholders. Our focus has always been the satisfaction of our customers, as we see them as our brand ambassadors. Hence, true to our tagline, “Delighting You Always”, we want to continue delighting our customers with our innovative solutions, products, and services,” says Yoshikai.

Time to Level Up! The Galaxy A Series is Now 5G Ready


Celebrate Siblings Day with the New Galaxy A Series

Did you know that April 10 is Siblings Day? Celebrating the love between siblings, this day also happens to be a lesser-known occasion to mark our bonds with loved ones.

In today’s digital world, devices like smartphones are the key to opening up virtual windows that connect people across different spaces and strengthen the bonds that tie us – including those we share with our siblings.

This year, make Siblings Day extra special with the new
Galaxy A73 5G,

Galaxy A53 5G and Galaxy A33 5G
, which let you enjoy many of Samsung’s most impactful mobile innovations without breaking the bank.

Read on for some ideas on how the latest Galaxy A Series can help strengthen connections, both physical and digital, between you and your siblings.

Celebrate, create, and capture new memories together

If you haven’t had one-on-one time with your siblings lately, why not plan a meal at your favourite restaurant, or visit an old childhood haunt like the arcade and relive some of your best showdowns.

Capture these precious moments in pristine quality with the advanced quad-camera system on the Galaxy A53 5G, which includes the 64MP OIS Camera (or a 108MP OIS camera with Galaxy A73 5G!) with VDIS technology that takes crisp and steady shots every time, and a high-resolution 32MP front camera for great selfies.

The Galaxy A33 5G also features a quad-camera system with a 48MP OIS main camera, as well as a 13MP front camera.

There’s no need to worry about fuzzy photos or videos in low-light conditions either. The Galaxy A series’ improved Night mode makes photos taken under dim lighting look brighter with less noise, and automatically adjusts video framerate for clear and vibrant videos even at night.

The Galaxy A series also comes with 128GB or 256GB of internal storage, which can be expanded to 1TB via a microSD, so you won’t run out of space while saving treasured memories on the phone.

Share, view, and game to your heart’s content

While we may not be able to spend time with our siblings every day, shared digital experiences can go a long way to maintain familial bonds.

The expansive 6.5-inch Super AMOLED display on the Galaxy A53 5G with a 120Hz refresh rate, and the 6.4-inch Super AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate on the Galaxy A33 5G, both give you an immersive viewing experience – all the better to watch TikTok videos that you share with each other.

If gaming is your preferred way to hang out online, the Galaxy A series is also equipped with a 5nm Octa-core processor, 8GB of RAM, battery life that lasts up to two-days, and 25W Super Fast Charging, so you can enjoy top gaming performance without any lag when you go head-to-head on Clash Royale or PUBG Mobile.

Stay connected anytime, anywhere

It’s nice to be able to reach out to your nearest and dearest whenever you’re thinking of them. The Galaxy A73 5G, Galaxy A53 5G and Galaxy A33 5G are both 5G-enabled, letting you get in touch quickly with one another, no matter how far apart you are.

Sharing private and personal information is also a breeze. The Galaxy A series comes with the Private Share app that lets you securely share and keep files within the family, while also giving you the flexibility to control who can access these files and for how long.

Loving these features? You will also be pleased to know that these phones are built to last. The Galaxy A73 5G, Galaxy A53 5G and Galaxy A33 5G come with the tough Corning® Gorilla® Glass 5 and are also rated IP67 for water and dust-resistance. Additionally, both devices guarantee up to four generations of Android OS upgrades, and up to five years of security updates, allowing a peace of mind for those looking for durability and to maximize their smartphone’s lifecycle.

Be similar, but different

Even if you and your family have matching phones, there’s no limit to the amount of personalization available with the Galaxy A73 5G, Galaxy A53 5G and Galaxy A33 5G.

Both Galaxy A53 5G and Galaxy A33 5G models are available in a variety of colors for you and your siblings to express your unique and individual personalities: Awesome Black, Awesome White, Awesome Blue, and Awesome Peach. As for Galaxy A73 5G, take your strut stylishly with Awesome Gray, Awesome White and Awesome Mint.

If you’re up for some good old sibling rivalry, here’s a fun idea to see who’s the better dresser: Take a mirror selfie with your Galaxy A series devices to show off your matching outfits and smartphones.

Dress in the color scheme of your phones for a cohesive look and share your pictures on social media or in your family group chats for a vote to see who wore it best.
