Another week, another whirlwind of totally EXTRA events! We were here, there and everywhere!
We were on the scene and vibing like a boss! Just check out our social diary for this past week (don’t be jelly!):
HABIB Group’s Buka Puasa Gathering
We joined HABIB Group at its dazzling buka puasa event, where guests were given insights into HABIB Jewels, Timezone, Chantique, and Ar-Rahnu Express, before being treated to a sumptuous iftar. The evening began with an exclusive tour of HABIB Ampang 1, where guests explored the showroom’s exquisite fine jewelry collections, bespoke services, and the renowned Hearts On Fire diamonds. The journey continued through other brands under the HABIB Group, showcasing a rich legacy of craftsmanship and innovation.
At the Pandora Malaysia showcase, guests were introduced to the latest ‘BE LOVE, Beraya’ campaign, celebrating Hari Raya Aidilfitri with jewelry that embodies love, connection, and festive elegance. The collection, featuring pieces from Pandora Timeless, Pandora Moments, and Pandora Essence, captures the season’s beauty with intricate details and radiant stones.
As the sun set, guests made their way to HARTA for iftar, sharing a meal that symbolised gratitude and togetherness. A special address by Dato’ Sri Meer Habib highlighted the significance of unity across all HABIB brands, reinforcing a shared commitment to celebrating traditions with contemporary elegance.

Nothing Phone (3a) Launch
Nothing finally untied the leash of its much-anticipated open secret, the Phone (3a), at a stunning launch event. In typical Nothing style, the brand wanted to leave an impression, make a statement, and wow the crowd with design and presentation. The Phone (3a) is more of a budget segment phone, but “budget segment” does not mean budget effort. The regular and Pro versions of the phone are both characterful and distinctive offerings from the rising brand, meant to demonstrate that, beautiful or polarising, your phone should not be weak or boring.
Powered by a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 with Android 15, 5,000mAh, and a 120Hz screen, the (3a) will keep up with daily tasks and the occasional productivity excursion; but the main focus is the camera systems, mainly TrueLense Engine 3 image processing and full-fat rear cameras on the Pro variant, with a periscope telephoto with 2x optical zoom. Nothing pulled out all the stops and collaborated with fashion photographer and direct Chuan Looi to create an elaborate cyberpunk set melding fashion, design, and technology, which had us all looking at the ceiling in awe.

MODA’s Style Your Way Bazaar
MODA’s first-ever “Style Your Way” Bazaar at APW Bangsar turned shopping into full-on fashion experience. Held over the weekend, the event featured 35 top designers. including Celest Thoi, Fiziwoo, and Tom Abang Saufi, making high fashion feel fun, accessible, and personal. The artsy-industrial vibes of The Ink & Bookmark only added to the stylish atmosphere.
Beyond the steals and splurges, MODA’s new direction under Cyrus Chin was clear: real connection between designers and shoppers. The exclusive token system added a fun twist – shoppers who spent RM100 earned tokens to redeem beauty goodies. Smart, stylish, and rewarding? It was a fashion win all around. Watch what went down:

During the launch event, the mall embraced the true spirit of Kemeriahan Bersama by sharing joy and kindness with 100 children from Pertubuhan Kebajikan Dan Penjagaan Nur Hidayah. The children received festive goodie bags and Duit Raya, reflecting the mall’s commitment to giving back to the community and fostering a spirit of inclusivity and generosity.

vivo V50 Launch
The venue was Menara Ken in TTDI, and the event was the launch of vivo’s latest phone. We were not disappointed by what was unveiled, as the vivo V50 is a dazzler, bringing photography and productivity to the most creative and expressive users. Capturing and sharing memories has been made “So Pro” with its state-of-the-art ZEISS Professional Portrait features.
Accompanying the 50MP imaging suite is a powerful device powered by a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor, equipped with 12GB of RAM and a 6000 mAh battery that supports 90W fast charging. The phone would also not be out of place in the elements, as it features I68 and IP69 dust and water resistance, so go places and do things with it!

OPPO A5 Series Launches At Hang Tuah Fire Station
From being lit on fire to being dunked in boiling water all the way to being run over, to say that the OPPO A5 Series had an explosive launch would be a total understatement. This is because this latest smartphone from the beloved brand is touted to be its most device yet, and it shows!
Held at the Hang Tuah Fire Station, not only did the launch mark a fiery start for the handheld, it also honoured our heroic firefighters who are the first to respond to many a calamity and were rightly the first to receive the device in the country. Though it boasts incredible durability, it also features AI LinkBoost 2.0 for seamless connectivity, and a 5,800mAh battery, all for the low price of RM899 for the base version and RM1,099 for the 5G version.
