The HUAWEI P60 Pro is Now Available for Pre-Order in Malaysia at MYR 4,699 Onward

Leave a comment

HUAWEI launched the P60 series of devices not too long ago this year. Of course, being HUAWEI’s biggest market outside of China, you would expect them to launch the P60 series sometime soon in Malaysia. They did just that.

They launched the P60 Pro last week alongside a few new shiny devices, including a rather interesting foldable smartphone that we thought looked rather slick. No matter though, the star of the show was supposed to be the HUAWEI P60 Pro, their latest photography flagship smartphone.

To recap, the HUAWEI P60 Pro was launched in China sometime in March 2023. Within the device is a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ gen1 4G platform. No 5G technology here, no thanks to the trade ban. You get up to 12GB of RAM and up to 512G of on-board storage with the powerful System on a Chip (SoC).

It is not Android that powers the device either, as we all have come to expect it. Instead, you get an in-house developed EMUI 13.1. While the main architecture and design of EMUI 13.1 is based mostly on Android, HUAWEI’s P60 Pro will not be coming with Google Play Store on-board.

EMUI 13.1 is displayed in all its glory on a 6.67-inch LTPO OLED display that offers up to 120Hz in refresh rate. It is not a Full HD display; you get 1,220 by 2,700 pixels, not quite QHD either. Still, the display offers brilliant OLED vividness and saturation at P3 wide colour gamut.

Out the back is a powerful 48-Megapixel main shooter that can also capture 4K videos. There is also a 13-Megapixel ultra-wide shooter alongside a 48-Megapixel telephoto camera to support the main camera and offer users more variety in their photos. Out the front is a 13-Megapixel selfie camera that also offers 4K video recording capabilities.

Keeping the device running and charged up the entire day is a 4,815mAh internal battery that should last for more than a day even with constant usage. If that is not enough, you can charge the device at up to 88W with a compatible charger and cable combination. If you prefer to keep your device unplugged, the device can still be charged at up to 50W using Wireless HUAWEI SuperCharge technology.

The HUAWEi P60 Pro is now available for pre-orders at MYR 4,699 until 19th of May 2023 at select HUAWEI Experience Stores. You can select between Rococo Pearl and Black colour options. Device collection can be done the day after the pre-order period ends. Each pre-order entitles you to a selection of gift vouchers for various services and products. If you collect your device on the 20th of May 2023, you are also entitled to an MYR 200 Touch n Go voucher and a chance at winning a HUAWEI Vision S television worth MYR 3,499. You can learn more about the HUAWEI P60 Pro on their website.

Pre-orders will also get access to an enticing selection of vouchers from renowned brands including:

  • Dadi Cinema: Movie Voucher
  • AirAsia: Hotel Discount
  • Watsons: RM20 Off Voucher
  • ZUS Coffee: Free 1 Cup of Handcrafted Americano
  • Chagee: RM20 Off Voucher
  • Baijia: E-Voucher Pack Worth RM55

Game, Set, Match! Swimply Makes Tennis Court Rentals Easy and Affordable for Aussies

Leave a comment

Swimply’s launch of tennis courts provides a high-end and affordable tennis experience for all to enjoy

SYDNEY, May 17, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Swimply, the innovative online pool sharing platform, today announced its newest category with the launch of private court rentals. Building on the success of its private pool experiences, Swimply is now bringing its unique brand to tennis enthusiasts in New South Wales and Victoria, offering affordable private tennis courts that make it easier than ever to enjoy the popular sport.

For many tennis players, practising on public courts can be a daunting experience due to the presence of skilled players, coaches – not to mention, often long waiting times to book a court. Swimply’s new tennis courts offer a perfect solution by providing players with accessible, affordable and convenient courts that prioritise privacy and give players the ability to enjoy playing with confidence at their own pace and skill level.

“Cost and difficulty of finding access to courts has been a major barrier for many players,” said Swimply CEO, Bunim Laskin. “With our launch into tennis, we’re thrilled to be able to provide Australians with an affordable and easy way to access these facilities, while also helping homeowners to monetise their underutilised assets.”

“Australians love tennis and if we can capture 2% of the private courts in Australia that will disproportionately positively impact the number of accessible courts by 10%,” said Swimply Australia Managing Director, Sam McDonagh.

“As a tennis fanatic, I’m delighted to see Swimply launch tennis courts. I play tennis rain, hail or shine, and unfortunately it can be pretty hard to get a court during the latter. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve driven past pristine, empty courts in beautiful homes around Sydney and wished I could jump on. Well, now we all can. You’ll never have to worry about not being able to get a court again. Australians are now able to play on stunning, high end tennis courts, in the best areas, all round Australia, in private. Every tennis tragic’s dream,” said Darren McMullen, television personality and Swimply brand ambassador.

Whether looking to get family and friends together for a fun day out, or wanting to get more practice time in, Swimply’s user-friendly booking system offers a wide range of options for players to find and book private tennis courts starting from just $18 per hour. From elegant backyard setups to sprawling estates with immaculate grounds that emulate an exclusive country club atmosphere, guests can even book a court and a pool at the same time for the ultimate luxurious escape.

Swimply’s expansion into tennis courts is part of the company’s ongoing commitment to making private leisure facilities accessible and affordable for everyone. By connecting homeowners with guests, Swimply is creating a win-win situation that benefits both parties and helps to unlock the full potential of these valuable assets.

PKWARE Releases New Masking Solution Designed for Enforcing Complex Data Access Policies

Leave a comment

Dynamic masking solution limits the exposure of sensitive data while maintaining the integrity of original source data

MILWAUKEE, May 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — PKWARE, a global leader in automated data security, today announced that it has released its newest data protection capability, PK Dynamic Masking. This solution is purpose built to mask sensitive data in real time as it is accessed based on user roles and policies, leaving the original information on the database untouched.

In the fast-paced business world, organizations need safe, real-time access to critical information. But protecting crucial sensitive data can create a complex problem in managing access rights that maintain compliance by masking access to some while delivering unaltered data to others.

PK Dynamic Masking—unlike static masking—does not change source data. Instead, it only masks requested data according to pre-determined data access policies based on the user’s role. Organizations can easily enforce complex data access policies that limit the exposure of sensitive data while ensuring that applications require access to actual production data operate as designed.

“PKWARE knows that when organizations look to invest in data protection, they don’t just want to minimize risk; they also need to reduce the burden of compliance. That’s where PK Dynamic Masking comes in,” said Jason Dobbs, Chief Technology Officer for PKWARE. “This new solution gives administrators more granular control of data masking across multiple databases with a single installation.”

This new release is available to PKWARE customers as of May 11, 2023.

About PKWARE
PKWARE offers the only data discovery and protection solution that locates and secures sensitive data to minimize organizational risks and costs, regardless of device or environment. Our ultra-efficient, scalable software is simple to use on a broad range of data types and repositories, enabling precise, automated visibility and control of personal data, even in the fastest-moving, most complex IT environments. With more than 1,200 customers, including many of the world’s largest financial institutions, retailers, healthcare organizations, and government agencies, PKWARE continues to innovate as an award-winning global leader in data discovery, security, and compliance.

Hasselblad Goes Completely Mirrorless

Leave a comment

For years, imaging companies have been avoiding mirrorless technologies in their consumer or prosumer grade cameras. Canon, Nikon, and even Hasselblad has fallen on the same boat for years since their inception. While they are not in the same playing field, they recognise the benefits of a DSLR, a camera with a single reflex mirror sitting in front of their sensors. The system was simple, and rather accurate, since you are looking at a mirror, not a digital representation of images. You are not looking into a pixelated display that offers subpar image qualities and resolutions to frame your images. Once you are ready, the shutter button pulls a lever that lifts the mirror mechanism up to reveal the sensor to your desired frame and captures your image.

Technology of mirrorless cameras have progressed plenty though. Sony’s Alpha division have championed the mirrorless camera technology for far longer than any major camera manufacturer and made it their brand. With every iteration, the mirrorless camera takes not only a new form, but also some kind of major evolution. The mirrorless camera from Sony has proven to be some of the most versatile and reliable cameras on the planet. Major news outlets have also started to adopt mirrorless cameras as their sole go to when it comes to imaging purposes. Even Canon and Nikon had to admit defeat by introducing their EOS R and Z series cameras and lenses, and then announcing last year that they are going to focus on mirrorless cameras instead of developing new DLSRs.

Hasselblad is the latest to join the band of camera makers that is abandoning the DSLR. They are not the only medium-format camera maker to go mirrorless exclusive though. Fujifilm has also championed mirrorless cameras, especially with their GFX medium-format cameras which has proved to not only be the more affordable option for that time of camera, but also more popular amongst photographers.

For Hasselblad, they have announced (not directly) that the latest Hasselblad H system will be the last of their DSLR product. According to the third-party announcement, Hasselblad will not take any more orders for the H system. They also mentioned that the H system line-up or products has officially all sold out and will not be replaced. The third-party vendor that pushed the announcement even mentioned that they cannot even replace their old malfunctioning parts. That also means that Hasselblad is completely and decisively abandoning the entire H series and its user base.

So, what if you want a Hasselblad for your studio? They have the X2D system. It is not like the H series camera though, at least not in modularity. For the X2D system, you go back to the camera body complete with its grip and sensor built-in and choose a lens for it. You get to choose between the 100C or 50C; either 100-Megapixel sensor, or 50-Megapixel sensor. The biggest upside to this and mirrorless camera is the reduction in camera size. The Hasselblad X2D series of cameras look more like a normal full-frame camera instead of a behemoth sized rig. While the sensor size prevents the camera from getting smaller, the Hasselblad X2D cameras are a lot more portable and simpler to handle. That means that you can technically take it out to the field for some stunning and highly detailed images on-the-go. It is still bulkier than modern mirrorless cameras from the likes of Canon and Nikon though, so you want to keep that in mind.

You might think that the X2D system might be more affordable. You would be right if you compare it to the H system. It is still EUR€ 8,699 (MYR 42,592*) for one X2D 100C though, which is not exactly a small amount of money, considering. The X2D 50C starts at EUR€ 6,000 (MYR 29,377*), which is slightly more affordable than the 100C, but still not what you want to call cheap. Then there are the lenses which starts off at EUR€ 1,199 (MYR 5,870*) at the very least. Still, better than paying EUR€ 34,680 (MYR 168,785*) for just a camera body. More information on Hasselblad’s latest products can be found on their website.

*approximately based on the exchange rate of EUR€ 1 = MYR 4.90 as of 16/05/2023 on xe.com

Currently, the digital economy has arisen as the fresh impetus for global economic development. While exploring Kunpeng Software Town in Zhengzhou, foreign internet influencer Cynthia Midori Yamauchi from Brazil lauded the city for its deliberate plans to cater to the needs of talented individuals in the software industry, encompassing their work, daily lives, leisure activities, education for children, and healthcare services. Such measures make the city full of potential for future development.

Innovation is the driving force behind development. Foreign internet influencers and multilingual hosts were awestruck by the 135-meter-long and over 1,900-ton weight tunnel boring machine at the workshop of China Railway Engineering Equipment Group Co., Ltd. The Greek-speaking host, Wu Yawen, noted that Zhengzhou is a model of manufacturing development in China. Moreover, it serves as a representation of the achievements made on the Chinese path to modernization in Zhengzhou.

When contemplating the future landscape of mobility and intelligent transportation, Yutong Group’s “Xiaoyu,” the L4 intelligent micro-mobility bus may provide a viable solution. “Xiaoyu” is equipped with a variety of intelligent technologies such as 360° all-weather environmental sensing, data interaction, and intelligent decision-making. “The combination of modern technology and smart city solutions in Zhengzhou is amazing,” said Viacheslav Shchekin, a foreign internet influencer from Russia.

Zhengzhou boasts a digital economy surpassing CNY 500 billion. The China Railway Engineering Equipment Group has received an excess of 1,500 tunnel boring machine orders, while CHINA RAILWAY Express Zhongyu Train has connected over 140 cities across the globe. Besides, the city has established a two-hour high-speed railway network and a two-hour aviation network. The above statistics, alongside other numerical data and examples have showcased the high-quality industrial development in Zhengzhou.

AirAsia Departs Food Delivery in Cross-App Partnership with Foodpanda

Leave a comment

AirAsia’s “super-app” has been a work in progress for a while now. The app has launched several services, including ride-sharing, travel bookings and food delivery. In fact, the app leveraged its budget airline to deliver local delicacies like Penang’s famous Char Kueh Teow on specific days to users who pre-order. However, it looks like AirAsia isn’t going to be staying in food delivery for long – well, not independently.

Airasia and Foodpanda will complement each other’s services in a ground-breaking partnership agreement. AirAsia will leverage Foodpanda’s extensive grocery and food delivery network and riders for food delivery while Foodpanda will offer ride-sharing services via Airasia Ride’s growing fleet of drivers. The partnership will come into effect from 30th May 2023.

airasia Superapp & foodpanda join forces for a groundbreaking partnership

The partnership will essentially see AirAsia throw in the towel when it comes to food delivery. From what we can see, the apps will not be intricately linked, instead, they will prompt users to head over to the other app. For now, this is being done with a prominent banner on Foodpanda’s home screen while on the AirAsia Superapp, the banner appears on the “food” section of the app.

That said, the partnership expands the services offered by Foodpanda, one of the biggest food and grocery delivery apps in Malaysia. With the partnership kicking into gear, AirAsia’s food services will be transitioning to a dine-in model. No information just yet on whether AirAsia’s unique food delivery services and options will transition in the partnership, but it does seem like the food services on the superapp are winding down.

FoodPanda SuperApp WIN 9511x

Both Foodpanda and Airasia will be sharing more information on their socials as they kick into gear. You can follow them @airasiasuperapp and @foodpandamy.
