Reading Time: 4 minutes read

Malaysia is now progressing into the new norm as companies have started opening up and most people have gone back to the office. The tourism sector is also welcoming fully vaccinated locals a chance to kick back and enjoy their vacation.

Getting back to the groove of moving around, we suddenly find ourselves being occupied and busier than before. Coming home to a messy house after a long, tiring day out and then forced to work up the motivation to clean. Why not give yourself one less thing to worry about and get a little cleaning buddy to help you out – realme TechLife Robot Vacuum.

Here are FIVE reasons realme TechLife Robot Vacuum would be your best cleaning buddy :

1. Sparkly Clean Floors

First things first, how clean is clean? Vacuums are usually just suction devices to remove dust, you are still left needing to get out the mop with a pail of water and start mopping away with all your might to ensure the floors are actually clean. But the realme TechLife Robot Vacuum features a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop function that meets all your cleaning needs for a spik and span floor. The robot vacuum doesn’t just remove dust, it also ensures your floors are sticky-free.

You know how there are vacuums that make a lot of ruckuses however you still find dust lingering about the floors, the realme TechLife Robot Vacuum ensures cleanliness as it provides a super-high suction power of 3000Pa which enables it to deeply suck up dust from crevices. But you don’t need to use such powerful suction all the time that’s why the robot vacuum has 4 different levels of suction, 500Pa Quiet, 1200Pa Normal, 2500Pa Turbo and 3000Pa Max for you to choose the level of which is required for certain areas.

When the robot cleans the hard-to-clean areas like carpets or wall edges, its speed automatically reduces and its vacuum power is boosted to ensure the deepest clean possible. You need not worry if your rugs or crevices aren’t taken care of, it will be efficiently cleaned with this little guy.

2. State-of-the-Art Sensor

Not only does it clean efficiently, but it is also independent enough to make its way around your house as it cleans. This realme TechLife Robot Vacuum is equipped with a whopping 38 sensors, one of which being the most crucial sensor for the robot vacuum to navigate precisely in real-time, the LiDAR.

LiDAR is a state-of-the-art technology that is commonly used as a navigation system for electric vehicles and aircraft. With LiDAR, the robot vacuum has fast and accurate real-time navigation and precise in-app room mapping. Basically, it is able to calculate the positioning and orientation with respect to its surroundings accurately which enables better path planning while avoiding bumping into furniture it comes across when cleaning. It’s like having eyes at the back of your head, you’re completely aware of your surroundings.

3. Not Home? No Problem

You know when you’re staying at a hotel and after a long day out you find yourself greeted by a clean room thanks to the housekeepers. It truly is one of the highlights of being on vacation and this robot vacuum is able to give you that very sensation every day.

The realme TechLife Robot Vacuum is designed to work with realme Link which gives you complete control of the vacuum through your phone. You can choose where, when and how you would like an area cleaned even if you were overseas. For instance, you can configure the robot to clean the living room with minimum water and normal vacuum power, then use the highest water and vacuum power to perform a deep clean of the kitchen and so on. So, schedule the vacuum to clean during working hours and after a tiring day, you would be greeted with clean floors. 

4. Set Boundaries

Boundaries are important in every relationship and can also be extremely useful in your relationship with your cleaning buddy. There may be areas in your home you don’t want to be disturbed or cleaned, the realme Link app enables you to set virtual walls and no-cleaning zones which can help you better plan cleaning routes at home.

Plus, the robot vacuum always strives to give you its very best as it is constantly refining the map of your home to better execute its cleaning process and navigate through efficiently. A satisfactory, worry-free cleaning process and you don’t have to even be present.

The robot vacuum is also capable of storing up to 5 different maps. So, you need not purchase 3 different robots for your 3-storey home, this little guy is more than enough.

5. Voice Command

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, realme TechLife Robot Vacuum strikes again with this feature that takes easy cleaning to another level. This vacuum works with Google Assistant and Alexa, so you can be exhausted, lying in bed and a few words is all you need to begin or end the cleaning process. 

Give the robot vacuum a name, like for instance, Robot Bob. All you have to do is lie around and say “Alexa, turn on Robot Bob,” and there he goes. Easy peasy. 

Cleaning takes up a lot of your time and energy which is not a fun experience on tiring days. So, give yourself the break you deserve and make realme TechLife Robot Vacuum your cleaning buddy. It is priced at RM1,999 and you can get your hands on it at realme authorised stores very soon.

Vivo X60 Pro Review: The last Snapdragon processor on a Pro phone.

Vivo X60 Pro Review: The last Snapdragon processor on a Pro phone.
Reading Time: 5 minutes read

A few months ago, Vivo launches the Vivo X60 Pro in Malaysia. The moment, this phone was launched, the hype was high for the design and as well for its gimbal camera. Vivo Malaysia has given us the opportunity to review the Vivo X60 Pro. In this post, I will share my complete review after using the Vivo X60 Pro for almost a month.

First of all, let’s recap the specs of the Vivo X60 Pro. Upfront the Vivo X60 Pro comes with a 6.56″ Super AMOLED display. The best part is, it even has a 120Hz screen refresh rate. It is quite impressive to see Vivo adding a 120Hz refresh rate for its phone. For security-wise, Vivo provides multiple security options to unlock the Vivo X60 Pro via its, Funtouch OS 11. One of them is the in-display fingerprint scanner.

Looking at the camera department, Vivo X60 Pro features a triple camera setup. First, it has a 48MP wide gimbal camera. Secondly, it has a 13MP telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom. Finally, it even comes with a 13MP ultrawide camera to capture some good outdoor photos. Over at the front, it has a 32MP wide camera for selfie lovers. Using the ultrawide camera, you can even take macro shots.

Under the hood, it runs on the Snapdragon 870 5G processor. This is the last X series Pro phone to use the Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. For storage wise, this phone comes with a 256GB UFS3.1 storage option included with 12GB of RAM. To make sure the Vivo X60 Pro is completely lag-free, it even comes with extended RAM technology. Using this feature, I was able to extend the RAM size up to 3GB additional. Battery wise, it has a 4,200mAh battery which could last all day depending on the usage.

Design: Premium quality design

Well.. well.. well, to be honest, I really like the design of the Vivo X60 Pro. The main reason is because of the satin finishing being used on the rear surface of the X60 Pro. I really feel so good holding it. Another thing to note in this phone is, the rear surface is completely thumbprint resistant. This means I don’t need to worry about having multiple thumbprints on the back of the phone. Since the weight is just 177g, it feels so light while holding the phone. I was able to use the device for a long period of time scrolling through my Instagram feeds on this gigantic phone. Even the rear camera housing design looks really nice.

However, sometimes I am kinda afraid that I might drop this phone while using it because of the thickness. The solution for it is to use the clear phone case, which comes in the box itself. After many times complaining about the phone casing, finally, Vivo has managed to use a better phone case instead of the previous jelly case. I really had a hard time previously on other Vivo smartphones.

Camera: Always the best night photography

The first camera feature, I would like to share with you guys is on the gimbal camera. Back when Vivo introduces Vivo X50 Pro, the gimbal stabilization software was really good. But, with the gimbal stabilization 2.0 software, videos are super stable now. First of all, we all should thank Zeiss for partnering with Vivo on the camera department. The new Zeiss effects are really good, especially the Zeiss Biotar effect. I have never tried the Zeiss camera before. This was the first time trying this effect on a smartphone.

I tried taking a few shots using both the rear and front camera. The rear cameras are really exceeding my expectation. Especially during the night, I tried taking photos in a super low-light environment. I was able to view the surroundings using the Vivo X60 Pro. The same goes for the front selfie camera as well. Night mode selfies are too good. It even reduces noise reduction in a low-light environment. You can watch my full review video below to view the sample photos taken using the Vivo X60 Pro.

Video recording-wise, I was able to shoot a stable video using 4K at 60fps. However, if I enable the ultra-stable mode, then I was only able to record video at 1080 at 60fps. Probably, if Vivo improves this feature, it would be really useful. Probably, one flaw I can see in the video recording is the autofocus feature which seems to be not working 100%.

Performance: The last Snadragon processor on the Vivo X series Pro smartphone

As mentioned, Vivo X60 Pro is equipped with Snapdragon 870 5G processor. Performance-wise, the Vivo X60 Pro is totally impressive. I was able to do multitasking without any issues. Additionally, the Vivo X60 Pro also comes with extended RAM technology. With this, I was able to add an additional 3GB of virtual RAM to the phone. This is mainly used for caching purposes only.

Gaming: A great gaming experience on a large display

Besides that, I have even tested two high graphics games on the Vivo X60 Pro. Since I am not a heavy gamer, I was able to test the gaming experience by playing the Call of Duty Mobile and Asphalt 9. After enabling the 120Hz screen refresh rate feature, I was able to tap the buttons instantly. Additionally, Vivo Funtouch OS 11 comes with Ultra Gaming mode. After enabling this feature, I was able to fully concentrate on the game itself.

One issue, I was able to notice was the heating issue. After playing a couple of rounds of games, the Vivo X60 Pro get heat rapidly.

Audio: Not the best audio quality, not that bad audio quality

The audio quality on the Vivo X60 Pro is not the best but it’s still good. The Vivo X60 Pro also has Hi-Res audio. Using the Hi-Res audio, you can experience surround sound while watching movies on Netflix. However, YouTube videos are not really the best sounding. To be honest, until today, I haven’t really seen the best audio sounding smartphone. Not even the iPhone.

The audio during gaming is really nice. With the Hi-Res audio, the sounds effects were clear. Even phone call audio quality was good too.

Battery: A let down from Vivo…

Well with the 4,200mAh battery, I was able to continue using the Vivo X60 Pro for almost all day. A couple of issues, I have noticed in the battery. If I continue to record videos for at least 10-15 minutes, I was able to notice there was a huge drop in the battery level from 100% – 75% at least. As mentioned during gameplay, as usual, I have had heating issues and the battery finishes faster than usual.

No matter what, with the 33W Vivo Flash Charge 2.0 charging adapter, I was able to charge the Vivo X60 Pro from 0% to 85% within 30 minutes of charging. Unless, if I use it as my daily driver for call answering and social network browsing then I would strongly say, the battery can last all day.

Price

Finally, we have come to the pricing of the Vivo X60 Pro. Until today, you can purchase the Vivo X60 Pro from the Vivo official Lazada store for RM3,199. What do you think about this price? I know it’s still expensive, but with tons of great features, I would strongly suggest you consider the Vivo X60 Pro if you thinking of changing your current phone.

Well, realme Band 2 actually contains health features like water reminder and stress measurement, therefore it works as your ‘partner’ to remind you to stay hydrated and chill.

What makes inDriver better than other ride-hailing services?
Reading Time: 2 minutes read

inDriver, one of the world’s most popular ride-hailing apps has officially begun operation in Malaysia, offering its unique ride-hailing service where passengers and drivers can independently negotiate the fare of a ride.

inDriver ride-hailing service is currently available in Penang, Alor Setar, Sungai Petani, Ipoh, Taiping, Melaka, Johor Bahru, Batu Pahat, Kluang, Kuantan, Kuala Terengganu, Kuching, Miri, Sibu, Bintulu and Kota Kinabalu. The company is also planning to make their service available in the Klang Valley soon.

Egor Fedorov, Chief Operating Officer of inDriver said that the company is very proud to be able to introduce its unique and innovative approach in offering ride-hailing service to Malaysia.

“Today marked a very meaningful milestone for us as we start our journey of improving the way we access ride-hailing service in Malaysia. inDriver firmly believes ride-hailing should be accessible, affordable and flexible. By allowing our users to independently determine and agree to the terms of a ride, we are able to combat algorithms used by other ride-hailing companies that increase ride prices due to peak hours, traffic conditions and request history. 

It also delivers greater freedom of choice to our users and this is especially important today as we continue to face challenges and uncertainties,” he added.

The app boasts a feature called Real-Time Deals (RTD) which allows passengers to take a ride request by offering a reasonable fare. Nearby drivers will then receive the request notification and they have the freedom to accept the offered fare, ignore the offer, or bargain for a better price.

inDriver is also unique in the way that drivers are not automatically assigned to passengers. Passengers will receive counter offers from nearby drivers and they can select the most suitable driver that meets their preferences – fare, driver’s rating, estimated time of arrival, or vehicle model.

Meanwhile, in order to ensure the safety of both drivers and passengers, the inDriver app provides the feature to share users’ GPS location and ride details in real-time with trusted contacts. In addition, the app incorporates an emergency button that will connect passengers or drivers directly with law enforcement agencies in case of an emergency.

inDriver has been steadily growing globally, despite facing extreme challenges due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation affecting the entire world. The unique ride-hailing app recorded impressive milestones this year, where the company completed 1 billion rides worldwide in June and surpassed 100 million app downloads worldwide on Android and iOS platforms in September.

The inDriver app is available for download for free from the Google Play Store, Apple AppStore and Huawei AppGallery.

As part of the Digital Brand Survival Series, Brand Geeks Inc is organising the inaugural edition of Turbocharge.Live, a 3-day Marketing Tech Conference & Masterclass Series from 5-7 October 2021, to be conducted online over Airmeet.

Manisah Sarujee, as the host of Turbocharge.Live and Geek-in-Command for Brand Geeks Inc said, “Despite all the uncertainties of the past 18 months, we decided to push on and organise this event to help Marketers and Marketing Techies to connect and collaborate in the increasingly vital field of marketing tech, especially in the pandemic era. However, most emerging brands are struggling to adapt as it seems complicated and scary.”

“Turbocharge.Live is here to help simplify marketing tech, making it more accessible and impactful to the digital brand survival of companies of all sizes. With tickets starting at just RM50, we hope to offer real value to our attendees.” Manisah adds.

To support this mission, many notable sponsors and partners have come onboard including ecosystem builders like MaGIC, Cradle, Cyberview, MyNEF, myHarapan and UOB (as part of their Jom Transform Programme). From the marketing tech side, Evenesis, Dattel, Airmeet, Supernewsroom, Redbeat Academy, EasyStore, Exabytes, Inmagine and many more are supporting and participating in this event. In addition to the panel discussions on 5 October 2021 and Masterclasses on 6-7 October 2021, their support includes various discounts, offers and free trials for all attendees.

Simplifying Marketing Tech for Emerging Brands

During the Keynote Session, Aireen Omar, President of AirAsia Digital will be sharing her thoughts with Karamjit Singh of Digital News Asia on Embracing Transformation as your Survival Kit to Navigate Uncertainty within the context of the new normal.

In fact, the entire event has been custom-designed for emerging brands to maximise their understanding, assessment and adoption of marketing tech curated across three tracks: Unify, Amplify and Quantify. This is to ensure that the marketing tech showcased during Turbocharge.Live holistically covers the spectrum of marketing activities while being accessible and affordable. 

For Unify (strategy, market research and marketing talent development), the sharing will be by Brand Geeks Inc, Dattel, Redbeat Academy, Kakitangan.com and Easystore. Next, for Amplify (promotion and digital visibility), Evenesis, Supernewsroom, Airmeet, JomLaunch and Experiential Design Team (EDT) will take centre-stage. Thirdly, for Quantify (data analytics and insights), Grab, Exabytes, YYC Digital/Xero Platinum Partner and 11TREES will share their tricks of the trade. Most importantly, the 15 panel sessions and 16 Masterclasses aim to strike a balance between technical sharing and business applicability with practical hands-on guidance offered over the three-day event.

Turbocharge Community – creating engagement during & beyond the 3-Day event

What will set Turbocharge.Live apart from other virtual conferences is the Turbocharge Community which attendees will be invited to join right after the event. They can continue their learning and sharing via this exclusive community platform where all the contents of Turbocharge.Live will be accessible to them for an entire year, until Turbocharge.Live 2022.

“The aim of the Turbocharge Community is to bring together Marketers and Marketing Techies in an inclusive and nurturing environment where they are encouraged to interact, share and ‘Unleash their Brand Power Together’. With the Turbocharge Community on Mighty Network, we hope to build a community that will thrive beyond the three-day event with a more structured and sustainable base compared to the usual messaging or social media groups.” said Silmyi M.Sadek, Chief Geek of Brand Geeks Inc.Full details for Turbocharge.Live as well as event tickets for Conference Only (1-Day), Conference & Masterclasses (3-Days) and group tickets are available at https://turbocharge.live/.

Apple’s iPad is the world’s best tablet. No matter you are an Apple fan you will fall in love with the iPad. Besides launching the iPhone 13 model phones, Apple also unveiled the 2021 iPad mini. Apple finally brings major changes to the 2021 iPad mini.

First of all, it has a brand new design which is similar to the iPhone 12 series and also the iPad Air. It exactly looks like the mini version of the iPad Air. The iPad mini also comes in four new colours which are Space Grey, Purple, Starlight and Pink. Similar to the iPad Air, it has a built-in Touch ID in the power button. It even supports the 2nd gen Apple Pencil so you can attach it to the side of the iPad mini.

2021 iPad mini Technical Specifications

For display wise, the iPad mini features an 8.3″ Liquid Retina Display. Similar to the 5th gen iPad mini, the 6th gen iPad mini comes together with a P3 display and True Tone display. Under the hood, the 2021 iPad mini runs on the Apple A15 Bionic chip similar to the iPhone 13 phones. The A15 Bionic chip comes with a 6-core CPU, 5-core GPU and a 16-core neural engine.

Over at the camera section, it has a single 12MP wide rear camera and a 12MP ultra-wide front camera. With this 12MP ultra-wide front camera, the 2021 iPad mini also supports Apple’s centre stage feature. Using this feature, the iPad mini will automatically zoom in and out based on the number of people are in the frame. It even supports 4K video recording at 60fps similar to the other iPad models.

For the first time ever Apple is bringing 5G to the all-new iPad mini. It even supports the latest WiFi 6 technology. The best part is Apple has finally transitioned from a lightning port to USB-C. This means you can use any USB-C cable to charge your iPad or even transfer data to your computer.

2021 iPad Mini Pricing & Availability

The new iPad mini is priced at RM2,299 for the 64GB WiFi model. Whereas the 64GB cellular model is priced at RM2,949. Apple is only offering the two storage options iPad mini. You can either choose the 64GB model or the 256GB, model. The 256GB wifi model is priced at RM2,949 and the cellular model is priced at RM3,599.

However, at the moment of writing this post, it seems Apple hasn’t really updated the launch date of the iPad mini in Malaysia. Interestingly, Apple seems to include the charging adapter for the iPad mini package.

In conclusion, this new iPad mini is suitable for every type of user. Even kids should be able to use the 2021 iPad mini for their daily activities as well. To know more about the new iPad mini visit Apple’s official iPad mini page.
