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!):

vivo’s First Foldable Arrives In Malaysia

The vivo X Fold5 officially landed in Malaysia as the brand’s first foldable phone here, and we were front and centre at the launch event. The phone is light, at just 217g and both screens are super bright at 4500 nits, so you can see clearly, even under the sun. It’s also built tough with protection against water, dust and cold. The cameras are made with ZEISS and include a 50MP telephoto lens with 100x zoom, a wide-angle lens and a main Sony sensor.

The X Fold5 isn’t just stylish. It’s built for work. You can run up to five apps at once with Origin Workbench, edit PDFs and convert files using DocMaster, and get AI help for content creation, meeting notes and translations. It runs on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip with 16GB RAM, a 6000 mAh battery, and fast charging at 80W wired and 40W wireless. This phone is made to power through your busiest days. Pre-orders start at RM6999 with exclusive promos at vivo Concept Stores. Check out what went down at the launch:

Furla Fall/Winter 2025 Collection Sneak Peek

Italian luxury brand Furla will soon launch their new collection for the 2025 Fall/Winter season, but before it hits the shelves, we had the opportunity to check out the collection for ourselves. The brand’s FW2025 collection embodies the essence of Furla’s identity with a refined blend of colour, feminine shapes, and impeccable craftsmanship. 

While at the media preview event, we were also treated to some yummy smoothie popsicles and got to try our hands at making a floral candle, perfectly matching the collection. The FW2025 collection will be available in stores from 15th August onwards.

Tokyo Street Pavilion KL Celebrates 14th Anniversary 

To celebrate 14 years of bringing a taste of Japan to Malaysia, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur’s Tokyo Street is hosting a month-long Tokyo Street Matsuri, running until 29th August 2025. Since its debut in 2011, Tokyo Street has become a cultural landmark, offering Malaysians a unique blend of Japanese shopping, dining, and tradition. This year’s matsuri—Japanese for “festival”—honours that journey with a festive atmosphere full of culture, community, and curated experiences.

Visitors can look forward to highlights like Southeast Asia’s first “Alien Stage” pop-up, Quby photo installations by MetaPark, hands-on cultural workshops, and exclusive shopping and dining deals. Whether you’re exploring anime, enjoying traditional sweets, or collecting stamps for rewards, Tokyo Street Matsuri offers something for everyone to enjoy.

Secret Recipe x Bichi Mao – A Crossover We Never Thought We Needed

If things can’t get sweeter, then why not go a little cuter? This was the question we asked ourselves at the recent Secret Recipe x Bichi Mao collab event. In celebration of National Day, Malaysia Day, and the 28th anniversary of Secret Recipe, Malaysia’s most cherished cake café chain announced its largest joint venture of the year.

In order to reward their new and devoted customers, both brands will be launching a limited-edition Secret Recipe x Bichi Mao merchandise line in collaboration with their in-house character IP, Bichi Mao. Selected Secret Recipe locations across the country will also undergo makeovers with a Bichi Mao theme from 15th August to 15th November, 2025. During this time, customers will be able to create their own “sweet mao-moments” with loved ones and receive exclusive surprises and collectibles.
