The Luxe Lens

Today, in Paris, James Dyson revealed an entirely new way to clean your teeth. The Dyson CameraJet™ is the only toothbrush with a camera powered by Gap Optical Targeting™ to identify gaps between teeth and precision-floss while you brush.4 An integrated 100k pixel macro lens camera powered by machine learning detects, tracks and predicts gaps between teeth in real time, triggering a precision jet burst of mouthrinse exactly where it is needed.  It is the result of six years of research, development and engineering, challenging every aspect of conventional oral care. While others cannot find the gaps between teeth, CameraJet™ can. While conventional sonic toothbrush bristles can stall against the tooth surface, Dyson’s variable sonic oscillation is engineered to keep bristles moving. While traditional needle-type jets can puncture through plaque, Dyson’s conical jet is designed to remove more plaque while being gentler on gums and enamel.  “Flossing is an awkward and time-consu...

 CIGA Design is taking its iconic Hunter collection to the next level with the launch of the Hunter Tourbillon in Malaysia. Partnering with Red Army Watches, this flagship release blends ambitious mechanical complexity with modern, lightweight architecture. The star of the show is the Caliber CD-011—CIGA Design’s proprietary manual-winding skeleton tourbillon movement. Boasting twin barrels and a robust 72-hour power reserve, the movement is fully exposed from front to back. It is framed by six sculptural bridges inspired by hunting blades, allowing the tourbillon to take center stage without sacrificing legibility, thanks to Swiss Super-LumiNova hands. Housed in a refined Grade 5 titanium case, the watch maintains its bold tonneau silhouette while shedding weight. It is available in Silver, Blue, and Carbon finishes, and comes equipped with both an integrated Grade 2 titanium bracelet and a sporty fluororubber strap for maximum versatility. Priced at MYR 9,195.00, the Hunter Tourb...

The line separating premium mid-range smartphones from genuine flagships has become increasingly difficult to define. With the Xiaomi 17T Pro, Xiaomi attempts to blur it further by combining a flagship-class processor, a Leica-branded periscope camera, an unusually large battery and exceptionally fast charging in a device that launched in Malaysia from RM2,899. That price is not inexpensive, but it remains considerably below the RM5,000 threshold now occupied by several ultra-premium phones. The more important question is whether the 17T Pro merely looks impressive on a specification sheet or delivers a genuinely convincing high-end experience. Based on Xiaomi Malaysia’s official specifications and a week-long hands-on assessment published by SAYS, the answer is largely positive — although the phone is not without compromises. Its 5X telephoto camera, 7,000mAh battery and Dimensity 9500 processor are clear strengths, while its weight, software clutter and less impressive speaker perfor...

  Every Malaysian has a dish that instantly transports them home. Across every state, culture and generation, Malaysian flavours have become more than just meals – they are memories, traditions and stories passed down through families, reflecting the rich diversity that makes Malaysia unique. In a country where food is often considered our universal language, each recipe carries a piece of our identity, connecting us to the people, places and moments that have shaped who we are. In conjunction with Bulan Kemerdekaan, Thermomix® Malaysia’s Ambassador Chef Sid Murshid and Thermomix® Malaysia invited guests to rediscover the flavours that define Malaysia through the launch of the Malaysian Flavours Collection, a thoughtfully-curated recipe collection that draws from Sid's childhood memories in Muar, Johor.
