Samsung made a bold attempt here to distinguish itself from the numerous slabs of black, brick-like and boring smartphones in the market. The Galaxy S3 features a curved display for easy navigation while keeping the front very minimalistic, with only a home button flanked with a Menu and Back button. Samsung marketed this phone as “designed for humans” (you don’t say?!). The Samsung Galaxy S3 features a 4.8-inch Super AMOLED 1280 X 720 display which is pretty good! And all the other new features such as Smart Stay, S Voice, S Beam, and many more… it just makes the Samsung Galaxy S3 a strong contender against the other high end smartphones.
The Samsung Galaxy S3 is definitely a great phone, and will win the hearts of previous Galaxy S owners, but I would suggest that you take your time, read more reviews, and decide for yourself.
I’m not much of a writer, so can you spare 2-3 minutes of your time to watch the video below to see what have I gotta say and love about the phone?
Hey everyone, how was your Chinese New Year celebration?
Not sure if you’ve read my past post regarding Petronas CNY event? I did mention that in line with its TVC as shown below, a photography contest themed ‘Reimagining Energy’, in collaboration with Leica Camera AG is also ongoing.
Here’s 4 extended version of the Chinese New Year TVC showcasing the casts from different countries coming home for CNY:
India
England
China
Malaysia
Back to the contest… Contestants have the chance to win exciting cash prizes and have their photographs exhibited at Galeri Petronas in KLCC. All YOU have to do is to submit snapshots of Chinese New Year celebrations that best portray the spirit of ‘Reimagining Energy’.
The picture was actually taken during last year’s Chinese New Year, where I spotted a dragon dance troupe and I happen to have my camera with me. Took some snapshots here and there, who knew that I would be able to use one of the pictures I had taken for this Petronas CNY Photography contest? It suits the theme pretty well I’d say!
You know what this post means… Yup, new video by Petronas Motorsports is up!
I had previously updated about Ep. 1 Ben Spies & Ep. 2 Jorge Lorenzo; now it’s already on Ep. 8 which features the profile of the Petronas Syntium Moto Yamaha AHM riders!
It’s an online show showcasing the essence of the racing world & Petronas, hosted by the sassy Julie Woon. Check out some of the insights as well as getting to know the riders from Petronas Syntium Moto Yamaha AHM racing team, support Malaysian yo! Malaysia Boleh

Petronas has launched its CNY festive commercial with this year’s title being ‘Coming Home‘. Shot in Malaysia, England, Belgium, China and India; it tells the tale of six individuals who have come far in life but are still true to their roots.
“For centuries, mankind have migrated from one place to another, in hopes of finding better opportunities. But no matter where they are, or how far they have come in life, they will always come home. This Chinese New Year, let’s celebrate the virtues that bind us all together — the spirit of resilience, determination and adaptability in turning challenges into opportunities and seeing the positive in the negative.“
Among others, the stories revolve around a dentist in India celebrating the new year with his family in his home country via Skype, and a young woman forced to celebrate the festival while working two jobs to make ends meet in London.
The story of the young Chinese girl in London celebrates the Lunar New Year with the customers she serves, is arguably the most heart warming of the bunch! The feeling of ‘coming home’ to your loved ones on special occasions is like no other, as many who will be battling the horrific traffic to reach their respective destinations this upcoming holiday weekend can attest to. In that regard, ‘Coming Home’ encapsulates the very core of any holiday season which is the simple warmth of home.
Let me know what do you think of the commercial?

This Petronas commercial was actually being released during their launch event held in KLCC just few days ago.
Petronas Group Senior General Manager Corporate Affairs Division, Datuk Mohammad Medan Abdullah said this year’s commercial would bring a breath of fresh air into Petronas’ approach to the festive campaign.
“We have moved away from the narrative approach that we had adopted in our past commercials and this time, we want viewers to understand the underlying messages through visual poetry. TVC also incorporates the spirit of perseverance, adaptability and determination captured in each of the stories. This energy is something that should inspire us all as we navigate through life.“
