The Honor 8 is coming soon to Malaysia with its metal frame and beautiful curved 2.5D glass front and back. Boasting a new sapphire blue colour, the premium metal frame, glass front and back and dual camera setup comes full circle from their earlier metal frame Honor 6 Plus which was launched here in Malaysia last year but adds more curves, beautiful patterns and features than before.

The ASUS ZenFone 3 is one of the few smartphones out there that can take 4K video recordings and still be priced below RM2K. We did a hands-on of both the 4K video recording as well as the full HD 1080p video recording. Both were taken with rather shaky hands and you can really see the effects of Video Stabilization in the FHD 1080p video recording. While the 4K video recording does not allow you turn on Video Stabilization, the shaking isn't as bad as expected but you can see for yourself in the videos below.

Today, the public and fashion community witnessed the official appearance of the Huawei Matebook today at the exclusive 'Huawei Night' during the fourth installation of Kuala Lumpur Fashion Week 'Ready to Wear 2016' (KLFW RTW 2016) at Pavillion. the 2-in-1 device is designed for mobility and lifestyle purpose in an ultra-thin design, fulfilling the need for the modern and stylish business environment by offering a premium device for work and play.

Initially priced at RM1999 the Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro (2016) tops the midrange Galaxy A6 or Galaxy A (2016) range with a 6-inch display, a thin metal frame and 2.5D glass front and back. However, the flagship-features don't stop there as there is NFC, a fast phase detection rear camera, fingerprint sensor and more. Is the Galaxy A9 Pro (2016) actually a flagship smartphone in a metal frame midrange body? We find out in the Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro (2016) review below.

The Samsung Galaxy J series have typically been known more for their value pricing than for their features but Samsung recently refreshed this series for 2016 and the Samsung Galaxy J1 (2016) is the updated entry-level Samsung Galaxy smartphone for this year. Featuring a solid plastic chassis made to look like metallic bodied smartphone, the Galaxy J1 offers a number of improvements over its predecessors. Find out if they are good enough for you to go out and get a new Galaxy J1 (2016) in our review below.

Just launched yesterday at RM1198, the OPPO F1s offers a 16MP front camera with a large camera image sensor and other selfie centric features and functions. This includes a palm and voice shutter along with the ability to turn the 5.5-inch 720p display into a simple flash. We managed to go hands-on with it yesterday and here is our first impressions video of the OPPO F1s, complete with a demo.

Finally, the most entry-level ASUS ZenFone 3 range, the ASUS ZenFone 3 Max ZC551KL is the only ZenFone 3 to use a quad-core MediaTek processor and a 5.2-inch 720p display. It still offers updated features like a fingerprint sensor with an aluminum unibody backside. It also uses a 13MP rear camera with just a single LED flash, and also uses a microUSB port. The ASUS tech guys assure us that battery life is just as good as the ASUS ZenFone 2 Max, despite the smaller 4000 mAh battery, but perhaps this is partly due to the MediaTek processor.

Going for the below RM1K price tag of RM999, the ASUS ZenFone 3 Laser ZC551KL looks to offer the updated features of a Qualcomm processor and fingerprint sensor with a cheaper looking aluminum unibody backside. According to ASUS tech guys, the ZenFone 3 Laser retains the same 13MP rear camera from the ZenFone 2 range, something we're not exactly happy about considering its rather outdated performance from before, but maybe it will do better with the 20 modes on PixelMaster 3.0. Instead of USB Type-C it is using a microUSB port.

Coming in with an RM2599 price tag and 6.8-inch full HD display, the ASUS ZenFone 3 Ultra ZU680KL is just 0.2-inches short of a full 7-inch tablet. Still, ASUS have done a very good job of shrinking the bezels so that it looks like a very large phone instead of a tablet phone. Featuring a flat and thin all metal design, the ZenFone 3 Ultra has "invisible antennas" or no visible antenna bands but is the only ZenFone 3 to put the fingerprint sensor in the home button (also the only one with a physical home button for that matter).

We managed to get the full set of the ASUS ZenFone 3 ZE552KL so we're doing a more detailed unboxing and hands-on video compared to yesterday's on-site hands-on (sorry for the shaky cam). Priced at RM1699 the ZE552KL goes for a metal frame and 2.5D curved glass front and back design but this time we got the not so shiny black coloured version. Check out the video and tech specs in this article.
