Courage of Conviction

So it has been a 3 months journey now after getting my Mi3 from the first batch flash sale in Malaysia. How did the phone flare in comparison to my old HTC Sensation XE, Ninetology Z1 and other phones? Did it give me much headaches? Note that this is not a boring specs post but more of a user experience post. If you want specs, go find uncle Google =) Simplified minimalist packaging. Phone in box, Manuals and the Sim tray pin right under the phone(see the flap just below the phone), cable hidden in the side of the box. If till now you still fail to find it, go do a lion king shaking the box till kingdom come and follow the source or the noise. First batch comes with extra sim trays to cater for different sizes and also the charger. I ordered mine with casing and screen protector. Fits perfectly on one hand. Not too big, not too small. Just nice. How did I end up with this phone? My old Sensation XE is dying and is lagging despite the flashing and stuff. I am tight on budget a...

Not just any tree bar but it's the only Tree bar where you could sit next to the tree and chill out with your favorite drinks. The best time to visit this place?

So Mid Autumn is coming again. What comes into mind then? Mooncakes right? Getting tired of spending your mid autumn with mooncakes and want something new? Introducing Gourmet Pineapple cakes. Previously only available in Taiwan and China. Not now. Gartien brought this Gourmet Pineapple Cakes down to the Heart of Penang. To be honest, I was never a fan of moon cakes and I am glad I have found this gem. Yes Pineapple cakes which is not too sweet, packed in bite size packaging in their Mid Autumn special edition boxes. Each box comes with 10 individually wrapped cakes enough for you to share the joy with your family. You could surprise your loved ones this year with something new rather than the traditional mooncakes.    I think this year's Mid Autumn Festival would be different for me as I finally found something I would love eating while having my cup of tea watching the moon. Made from fresh pineapples without preservatives and artificial flavo...

Heard of the new launch of Ninetology's Experiential Center in Penang?? What is an experiential center? It's a mixture of a service and sales center which is supposed to provide an "unforgettable experience" to users and would be users. This post also marks the first time I am blogging nearly completely with my phone camera. With the advancement of mobile phones nowadays, what better way to blog than using a phone? The launching ceremony was graced by the management team of Ninetology ASEAN comprising of Mr Sean Ng (Chief Executive Officer), Mr Marco Beh (Chief Operating Officer), Mr Leslie Loh (Chief Digital Officer) and Malaysian singer and songwriter, Yise Loo. The launching of the center by songwriter Yise Loo Champagne popping!! Oh yes of course I get a glass of the champagne Visitors also get to try to "win a phone by unlocking" the phone after donating to their charity. For more information, please...
