In conjunction with our 62nd National Day, Digi has done something unique and helpful for the visually impaired community. For the first time, the company developed a new technology called Footbraille can it was designed in mind to help them experience a football match by touching.

So the online pre-order for the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10+ are sold out on Samsung Malaysia's official store. No worries, multiple partners are selling the same device and there is still some time left before the pre-order ends on 18 August 2019. So without further ado - here's what you can get out of Celcom, Digi, Maxis, U Mobile and YES 4G.

In this week's tech news recap, Samsung stole the show by unpacking the latest Samsung Galaxy Note10 and Note10+! Compared with the predecessor, it has several new features such as the S Pen Air Action, AR Doodle, PlayGalaxy Link, 3D Scanner and many more. Samsung Malaysia quickly soon announced the official local price starting from RM3699 and the series are now on pre-order which sold out quickly. Dayum son! We can't wait to get our hands on it for the review!!

Besides that, HONOR Malaysia shortly announced the HONOR 20 Pro price for RM2299 (not too shabby). If you're thinking of getting one, we just released our review so do check out the camera capabilities (#satisfied). Also, Huawei revealed its own HarmonyOS which can potentially replace Android and they should just do it anyway as a competition. Lastly, some #khabarbaik announcement by TM on new price slash for all Streamyx users at RM69/month and Unifi Air for RM79/month. Pretty cool, now onto the NewsBytes below.

So...it's August already! But things have been a bit quiet. I mean, there are some news here and there, the Vivo S1 got officially launch in public yesterday at the Vivo SuperDay Roadshow Event, then Xiaomi Malaysia also got to show its new pure stock Android Mi A3 smartphone (which nobody really seems to care for some reason), same goes to the Black Shark 2 Pro that was revealed in China (which unfortunately still loses the favour against the ROG Phone 2, according to our fans). Besides the phone news, we got a Malaysian Pokemon fan making his own Pokemon game mod based on Malaysia so that's cool. 

Yeah so there's nothing much but just a heads up, here's what you can expect in this coming few weeks - many news about the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 series which will take place in New York and many, many Merdeka promo sales to come. Anyway, let's get started shall we? 

In continuing the Vivo S1 hype, Vivo Malaysia has announced that its latest S series smartphone will also be available on Digi Phone Freedom 365 package for only RM36 a month. Available in either Diamond Black and Skyline Blue, any customer who purchases the phone will have a free Bluetooth Speaker.

After a swarm of events and PR news from the post-Hari Raya holidays, tech news was calm again this week and there isn't much going on. The biggest one was probably the Xiaomi Mi 9T, also known as the K20 is launched in Malaysia from RM1199 which is dirt cheap, Shopee 7.7 Orange Madness campaign is back with awesome RM1 items, RM0.77 Shocking Sale, Shopee24 Express Delivery and more, 11street died and revived as PrestoMall, Harry Potter: Wizards Unite is now available in Malaysia and the Huawei Nova 5 series got unveiled.
