Samsung Malaysia and Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week to Showcase Iconic Galaxy Z Devices in Strut Down Runway

Samsung Malaysia Electronics
commemorated the grand return of Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week (KLFW) with its iconic Galaxy Z Series gracing the runway at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur in celebration of the fashion industry’s revival in Malaysia. Earlier this year, Samsung introduced the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G and Galaxy Z Flip3 5G to unfold a new chapter of foldable smartphones the world had yet to experience – a chapter where our devices work to empower us through an ecosystem built upon flexibility, openness, and innovation.

The latest entries to the renowned Galaxy Z Series were built with the craftsmanship and digital intuition that Samsung fans have come to expect and love, without forgetting key improvements to make this generation of foldables the most groundbreaking yet. From their bold design to their synergy via Galaxy Ecosystem, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G and Z Flip3 5G has truly brought about new ways to transform how we live, work, and play.

“Through this generation of the Galaxy Z Series, Samsung has once again redefined possibilities with devices that have the versatility and expressive capabilities needed for today’s fast-paced world,” said Elaine Soh, Chief Marketing Officer of Samsung Malaysia Electronics. “With innovation and design at the forefront of this generation, the Galaxy Z Series brought fashion-conscious users unparalleled function while effortlessly making them the center of attention wherever they went.”

Craftsmanship to Last for Generations

Samsung users expect the best in function and style for all their products. That’s why this generation of Galaxy Z devices were built with uncompromising craftsmanship to improve upon the past with durability standards to last a generation. For the first time ever in foldable history, the Z Fold3 5G and Z Flip3 5G comes equipped with IPX8 water resistance to shield against accidental splashes.

Furthermore, shock-durability was also improved with Armor Aluminum, the strongest aluminum ever used on a Galaxy smartphone, alongside Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus™ to protect against scratches and accidental drops. Adding to its arsenal of protective features, both devices now include a new protective film made out of stretchable PET and optimised display panel layers to create an ultimate Main Screen that’s 80% more durable than ever before.

The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G then completes its innovative design with a subtle Under Display Camera finish on its Main Screen to keep users immersed like never before all while looking sleek as ever.

Whereas the Galaxy Z Flip3 5G was made to unapologetically express personalities – rocking its bold look with seven loud and unique colours, an improved and personalised 1.9-inch Cover Screen, and a host of accessories for users to pair their fiercest outfits with. Being the pinnacle of unmatched style and function is how the Samsung Galaxy Z Series will define this era of foldable smartphones.

Samsung Brings the Galaxy Experience to KLFW

In conjunction with KLFW, a Samsung Galaxy Z Experiential Pop-Up Booth will be erected from 3 – 7 November at Level 3, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur (between Pleats Please and Giorgio Armani) to bring the Galaxy Experience right into the palms of consumers. Throughout the event period, consumers will be able to get an up close and personal feel of everything the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G and Galaxy Z Flip3 5G has to offer alongside more exciting contests and promotions to partake in.

As industries are beginning to reopen, Samsung Malaysia and KLFW aims to return stronger than ever with KLFW’s largest show yet. In partnership to revive the fashion industry, they call upon Malaysians to head over to Pavilion Kuala Lumpur to celebrate the future of versatility and discover new experiences that will enrich their lives with greater possibilities.

Leading Malaysian Manufacturer Taps the Power of the Cloud with Epicor Kinetic

Epicor Kinetic to maximise business efficiencies for Allied Hori, creating leaner operations and reducing process complexities

Epicor, a global leader of
industry-specific enterprise software
 to promote business growth, today announced
Allied Hori Sdn Bhd
, a leading Malaysian electronics manufacturing company with a global footprint across Asia and Europe, has selected Epicor Kinetic as part of its digital transformation strategy.

Epicor Kinetic – a cloud-based solution built with manufacturers, for manufacturers – will help Allied Hori Sdn Bhd modernise its operation onto a scalable platform, aid integration of the company’s systems, and automate business processes for greater efficiencies.

To further scale and drive business growth, Allied Hori required a centralised data hub that enables inter-departmental consolidation of data and insights sharing. The company also required a solution to streamline and increase operational efficiency and productivity, as well as enhance traceability and visibility of workflow and resources.

Epicor Kinetic will maximise business efficiencies for Allied Hori while addressing their pain points, creating leaner operations, and reducing process complexities using Epicor Business Process Management (BPM). Aside from a centralised data bank allowing greater insights into the business, Allied Hori should see improved resource optimisation and have significantly expanded visibility and traceability of operations and resources with barcoding and real-time data collection, using advanced planning and scheduling (APS) and material requirement planning (MRP).

Ian Leong, Allied Hori Sdn Bhd Managing Director

“Solutions that help us streamline and automate our day-to-day operations are what we really need to grow as we embrace the future of manufacturing,” said Ian Leong, Managing Director of Allied Hori Sdn Bhd. “The newly implemented Epicor Kinetic ERP solution was specifically designed to fit our unique production needs. It has enabled us to integrate the activities of the entire company into one centralised system, enabling us to automate and standardise our business processes.”

As manufacturers contend with an array of challenges including operational efficiency, supply chain disruption, workforce complexities, and changing customer expectations for digital connectedness, the need for flexible, insights-driven industry productivity solutions has never been greater.

In fact, according to the latest Epicor
Industry Insights Report 2021
, 94 percent of business leaders surveyed stated the cloud is critical to future-proofing their business, and 82 percent said COVID-19 had accelerated their cloud migration plans.

Today, we hit another milestone by aggregating the Netflix app directly onto Ultra Box so that customers can stream Netflix content seamlessly for an unbeatable big screen experience at home.

OPPO Malaysia just launched the brand new OPPO A95 today, 15 November 2021 and I can tell you that this is a capable phone that performs well for daily use. I had the chance to use and review the new OPPO A95 for a week or so and this is what I think about it thus far.

First Impression and Design

My first thought is that the new OPPO A95 looks similar to my recently reviewed OPPO A75 5G but there are many differences in terms of the performance and internal specifications. The OPPO A95 is a toned down version from the China only OPPO A95 5G device. However, it does use the very same design and size.

The OPPO A95 is quite light in my opinion, and the size feels right in my hands. The large 6.43” AMOLED screen with a resolution of 1080×2400 pixels looks good and there is the punch hole 16MP selfie camera on the top left side of the display. There is also an under display fingerprint sensor near the bottom which I think is quite responsive.

The power/standby button is located on the right side of the phone while the volume rocker sits on the opposite side on the left. This layout is already a standard layout by OPPO and most OPPO users will find it right at home. The dual SIM and MicroSD card slot sits above the volume rockers.

There is also an 3.5mm audio jack, along with the USB type-C port and a bottom firing speaker grille at the bottom. I was expecting by this time, most phones would come with stereo speakers but alas, the OPPO A95 only has one speaker. Top of the phone stayed clear of any modules.

Around the back, you will find a three camera setup on the top left side and the OPPO logo near the bottom right. I particularly love the colour option for the review unit called Aurora. It shines in a different shade of colours under different lighting conditions. Good thing it is not the glossed type. Otherwise it will be a fingerprint magnet, and I don’t like that. I’ve always preferred a soft textured matte finish on my phone any time.

Performance and Usage

The new OPPO A95 comes with a dated Snapdragon 662 SoC based on 11nm processing technology and supported by 8GB of RAM and 128GB storage. The China version of OPPO A95 5G comes with Dimensity 800U SoC, therefore this Snapdragon variant is a toned down version made for International users.

Having said that, the OPPO A95 comes with OPPO’s very own RAM Expansion Technology whereby you will be able to increase up to an extra 5GB of unused ROM storage into RAM.

But I’m fairly impressed by the overall performance of the new OPPO A95. The ColorOS 11 based on Android 11 is snappy and stable. Browsing through the phone or having multiple apps opened at once doesn’t slow down its performance. However, I noticed a slight performance lag when it comes to heavy graphic usage especially in gaming.

The dated SD662 chipset worked well enough for the OPPO A95 to breeze through some usual daily tasks such as for social media, emails, note taking, online chats and productivity apps. It doesn’t come with 5G like its China counterpart so it relies on the standard 4G network for a relatively fast data connection.

As for battery endurance, the 5000mAh battery can last me the whole day which I’m grateful for as I am a heavy user. The OPPO A95 supports SuperVOOC 2.0 with 33W fast charging capability. It can charge up to about 55% within 30 minutes from below 5%. And that 55% of juice can continue on for at least another 5 hours or so.

I have tested the OPPO A95 for gaming and it is just above average in terms of performance. If you’re a heavy graphic gaming enthusiast, you may find it a little bit below your usual performance threshold. It can run games like PUBG Mobile or Call of Duty Mobile, but don’t expect it to run smoothly. But the battery can last a long time even when playing graphic-hungry games.

But if you’re playing normal games like Pokemon Go or Angry Birds, you won’t have any problems with those.

While playing PUBG Mobile, I can only set it to medium graphic performance. Means I can only choose up to 30fps (and below) for the graphics. No options to bump it up higher at all. And the overall gaming performance for PUBG Mobile is just okay and playable. You will notice the lag when engaging multiple enemies in the game.

Having said that, the OPPO A95 comes with OPPO’s very own Game Space app to optimise the phone’s gaming performance. Within this app, you can select your modes. I choose the Pro Gamer mode when playing games and it does help a little bit. So be sure to turn this option on when playing games.

Camera and Photography

I am pretty much happy with the camera performance on the OPPO A95. OPPO has always been consistent with the camera performance so I don’t have much problems getting some good shots with it. But as a mid-range phone, don’t expect it to be fantastic. However, most of the photos that I captured are above my own expectations.

Okay, let’s check out the camera specs.

Main camera
48MP f/1.7, 26mm (wide angle)
2 MP, f/2.4, (macro)
2 MP, f/2.4, (depth sensor)

Selfie camera
16 MP, f/2.4, 27mm (wide)

If you notice, the OPPO A95 doesn’t come with an ultra-wide angle camera or a telephoto camera. It only has the 48MP main shooter as well as a 2MP macro camera. I am happy with what the main 48MP camera can shoot and I can easily give a rate of 7.5 out of 10.

You can find some sample shots below and see for yourself.

You will be happy with the overall camera/photography quality with the OPPO A95. I managed to capture many usable shots for prints and above average shots for your social media postings. The video quality captured with the main 48MP camera is good as well. But it doesn’t come with OIS or any anti-shake features.

Nevertheless, the overall camera performance doesn’t disappoint me at all.

Conclusion

If you’re looking for an affordable mid-range smartphone, you can’t go wrong with the OPPO A95. The dated Snapdragon 662 chipset is good enough for your daily use and it comes with a generous 8GB of RAM and storage option.

The under display optical fingerprint sensor is responsive and it unlocks the phone quickly and accurately. During the time that I was testing the OPPO A95, I couldn’t find anything else that I dislike about it. The design is simple and light. The Aurora colour option is beautiful and it also comes in Black.

My personal opinion, this is a reliable device to have if you’re looking for a normal, cheaper option as an upgrade to your old phone. The OPPO A95 is finally launched in Malaysia and is
available for pre-order
 right now only
RM1,099.00
. Another great news, customers who pre-order OPPO A95 from 15th November to 19th November 2021 will be entitled to get an OPPO Enco Buds worth RM159 by adding RM1 only and more rewards.

The OPPO Glow was incorporated in the design process of the OPPO A95, making the smartphone shimmer brightly while staying fingerprint and scratch-resistant.

The OPPO Glow Process

OPPO Glow’s exclusive design process is innovated from the Reno Glow process. Firstly, a crystal glass piece with the finest clarity and tactile quality is handpicked by the engineering team to create the mold. The glass is then subjected to several rounds of treatment and reinforcements before being engraved in a 99.9% vacuum environment.

During this process, millions of nanoscale glowing star-like diamonds will be born, likening the look of a galaxy. With a warm and smooth touch, the OPPO Glow is designed for OPPO A95 to achieve the perfect balance between class and comfort.

Capture the Rainbow in the Palm of Your Hand

The three main characteristics of the OPPO Glow are:

Visual – A shiny and appealing appearance
Tactility – Smooth to touch
Practicality – Fingerprint, wear, and dirt/dust resistant for everyday usage

The OPPO A95 comes in two brilliant colors: Glowing Starry Black and Glowing Rainbow Silver. Each color is wholly unique, created to appeal to a diverse range of taste. Akin to the reflection of distant stars on a calm sea, Glowing Starry Black reveals faint flashes of light that shine through the deep black night.

On the other end of the spectrum, Glowing Rainbow Silver presents a multichromatic reflection of the colors of a rainbow when viewed under different lighting, offering a unique visual experience to its users.

Creating the Signature Multi-Colored Effect

First, an appropriate glass must be selected to be etched into a crystal diamond mold. Next, the master mold will be transferred to the plastic coil to make a disposable sub-mold. Concurrently, an even layer of coating solution has to be poured on the surface of the plate of the mobile phone back shell, before subjecting the front sub-film on the mobile phone back shell under vacuum, and applying the coating to produce the effect of shining sand.

Finally, the smartphone undergoes high-pressure pre-curing and secondary curing to improve the hardness to form the final appearance of the OPPO A95.

A total of 178 technical requirement certifications and 155 user cases were analysed in multiple rounds of testing.

This certification means that OPPO Find X3 Pro not only guarantees information security in daily life but also that it meets the more stringent enterprise security standards. OPPO has adopted international standards in both information storage and transmissions to ensure data cannot be read or tampered with during daily use and OTA upgrades.

In addition, to encourage more developers to participate in shaping a healthier and safer mobile internet ecology, OPPO has unlocked several features during the certification process, which are now available on the OPPO open source platform.

Speaking on the certification, Mr. Andy Wu, President of Software Engineering Department, VP of OPPO, pointed out, “In recent years, OPPO has been consistently working on bettering our security offerings in order to offer better user security and privacy in terms of product security and compliance.

OPPO Send-in Repair Service: Providing Effortless Experience

OPPO’s send-in repair service offers users a convenient, hassle-free smartphone repair service

This October marks a significant achievement at the global leading smart devices brand OPPO. Up to date,  it has launched a send-in repair service in 10 countries and regions around the world. This newly launched service for OPPO users who require a smartphone repair, provides an alternative logistics option instead of visiting a customer care centre.

According to an OPPO user from Malaysia, he mentioned that he does not have to worry too much when his phone encounters a problem because the after-sales service from OPPO will always solve his problem quickly.

OPPO has accelerated the construction of contactless services due to the impact of the pandemic. Now, users who need to get their phones repaired can enjoy the convenience of Send-in Repair Service where they no longer have to visit the service centre. All they need to do is apply through the official website or “My Oppo App” to send their phones to the nearest J&T pick up point and it will be sent to a service centre for repair. Status of phone can be checked in real-time. When the phone is repaired and ready, it will be sent back safely to users.

Launching the Send-in Repair Service reduces the chance of close contact with outsiders and helps in lowering the risks of infection. This new service provided by OPPO offers convenience and flexibility for users as phone repairs can now be done in just a few simple steps while staying at the comfort of their homes.

In August, Zain accidentally broke his phone screen. He then applied for Send-in Repair Service and his device was sent within Selangor in the evening. The next afternoon, OPPO service center called to inform him that his screen had been replaced. Zain said, “The screen was repaired. They changed a new film and even cleaned my phone. It looks just like a new phone. To my surprise, I was only required to pay for the screen repair cost, everything else was free.”

Runeterra Arrives in PUBG MOBILE for the Version 1.7 Update

The PUBG MOBILE Version 1.7 update welcomes the world of Arcane, the League of Legends animated series, to the battlefield. The massive update incorporates the most ambitious partnership ever introduced, with characters and locations from Arcane.

The
PUBG MOBILE
 Version 1.7 update has arrived with the game’s most groundbreaking partnership to date, introducing new and innovative gameplay in collaboration with the new League of Legends animated series,
Arcane
.

With new playable characters, a mysterious story, unique gameplay, weapons and abilities, players will travel between Erangel, Piltover and Zaun as some of the show’s most well-known champions. The Version 1.7 update also brings new gameplay features, downed player carry system, new outfits, Cyber Week sales and much more.

With one of the most ambitious partnerships ever introduced to
PUBG MOBILE
, the Version 1.7 update sees extensive elements from the world of
Arcane
, the new League of Legends animated series, come to
PUBG MOBILE
, introducing locations, characters, and gameplay from the beloved universe.

By selecting ‘themed mode’ when playing a Classic game on Erangel, players will find the huge and mysterious floating Mirror Island. Early in the game, Mirror Island can be explored by players for supplies. However, as the game continues, Mirror Island will activate and become extremely unstable. Players who come in contact with the Wind Wall will be transported to either Piltover or Zaun, two iconic cities from League of Legends.

Players who land on the activated Mirror Island will also be able to transform into the iconic champions Jinx, Vi, Jayce, or Caitlyn, and use unique weapons and skills to battle against other players. Defeated players return to Erangel in their original form.

In addition to battling and exploring in these new areas, players can interact with these champions to uncover clues on what’s taking place in the world of

Arcane
, and help those champions return to their own world before it’s too late. Unfortunately, Enforcers, Firelights and Berserkers have also entered the world of
PUBG MOBILE
, and players have to stop them from causing mayhem.

Using Hex Shards and other supplies, players can complete the story and return Jinx, Vi, Jayce, and Caitlyn back to Runeterra. Hex Shards can also be used to purchase battle supplies such as the new
Stimulant Pack
, which gives players the ability to recover health upon defeating enemies, and the
Landing Pack
, which gives players the ability to glide.

From November 23
rd
until January 3
rd
, players can also accumulate Exploration Progress by playing matches in Mirror World or Classic Mode, and earn exclusive Arcane emotes and items, with some recreating the ultimates of the Arcane champions.

Mirror Island will descend on Erangel on November 16
th
.

PUBG MOBILE’s
 Version 1.7 update also brings new ways to play together. Knocked down players, both teammates and enemies, can now be carried instead of only reviving them or eliminating them. While carrying another player, movement speed is slowed and no other actions are available, including combat, picking up supplies, entering vehicles or using consumables. Passive damage for the player being carried also occurs at a slower rate, meaning it will take longer for them to be eliminated.

Even better, all the fan favorite modes brought back in Version 1.6 are set to remain playable in the Version 1.7 update. Metro Royale: Reunion, Vikendi, Payload 2.0, Runic Power, Survive Till Dawn and Infection Mode will all be playable at certain times of the week.

The Version 1.7 update also introduces the new All-Talent Championship Season 4. Teams can compete in weekly matches in order to earn activity rewards and ranking rewards, and move on to the playoffs, Semi-finals and Finals where they will battle it out with the very best competition to earn the ultimate bragging rights.
