Xiaomi today announced the launch of the all-new flagship Xiaomi 12 Series for local markets, featuring two groundbreaking devices: Xiaomi 12 Pro and Xiaomi 12. Designed to empower users around the world with a cutting-edge videography studio and entertainment powerhouse, Xiaomi 12 Series delivers impressive advancements in Xiaomi’s AI algorithm, flagship processing power, and an all-round elevated experience.

Xiaomi 12 Series enables users to record studio-quality shots no matter the scenario, be it challenging lighting conditions or moving objects. Both phones boast a pro-grade triple camera array for versatile shooting, starring a massive 50MP main wide angle camera, with 8K recording capabilities on both Xiaomi 12 Pro and Xiaomi 12.  Xiaomi 12 Pro stands out with its state-of-the-art triple 50MP array, which features a cutting-edge Sony IMX707 ultra-large main sensor. This sensor is capable of catching large amounts of light and empowers advanced imaging capabilities with faster focus speeds and increased color accuracy. Xiaomi 12 features a 13MP ultra-wide angle camera, along with a 5MP tele macro camera, for filming life from different perspectives.  

Beyond impressive hardware, Xiaomi 12 Pro and Xiaomi 12 also advance Xiaomi’s proprietary AI algorithms.

Xiaomi ProFocus intelligently identifies and tracks objects, preventing blurring or out-of-focus shots of moving or veiled subjects. These advancements also include eye and face auto focus capabilities. Ultra Night Video uses Xiaomi’s proprietary algorithms to record video even under extreme low-light, meaning moody, atmospheric shots are clearer than ever.

Xiaomi 12 Series also supports HDR 10+. Xiaomi 12 Pro is SGS Eye Care Display Certified, showing care for users’ long-term visual health during marathon sessions.  

Meanwhile, Xiaomi 12 Pro redefines flagship display with incredibly smooth viewing, scrolling, swiping, and sliding. The device’s highly power-efficient 6.73-inch WQHD+ display leverages AdaptiveSync Pro to intelligently adjust dynamic LTPO display between 1Hz and 120Hz based on content. 

Xiaomi 12 delivers Xiaomi’s most colorful smartphone display to date, with more than 68 billion colors on 6.28-inch full-HD+ displays. Both feature 120Hz AdaptiveSync, for an impressively high-definition, vibrant, and flicker-free display that conveys every detail.  

 No cinematic experience is truly complete without pro-grade audio. Xiaomi 12 Series features SOUND BY Harman Kardon, and creates an immersive audio experience powered by Dolby Atmos®, delivering spatial sound with rich detail, clarity, and realism across all your favorite entertainment. Xiaomi 12 Pro’s quad speakers – in the form of two tweeters and two woofers – deliver clear details and cover an astounding range of sound. Xiaomi 12 delivers balanced stereo sound ideal for immersive gaming or video.  To optimize core user experience further, Xiaomi 12 Series incorporates MIUI 13, released globally earlier this year. The update includes faster storage, higher background process efficiency, smarter processing, and longer battery life.

The design itself represents a significant advancement in smartphone research and design. Making smartphones not only technologically superior but also cosmetically superior is a step forward.

The continual excitement and experience since the smartphone’s launch has not only solidified its market position but also demonstrated that it is a well-balanced phone that isn’t only focused on aesthetics.

Delving more into the device, the vivo V23 5G dons a high-resolution 50MP AF Portrait Selfie camera on the front. This device focuses heavily on the selfie experience which makes it stand out in the market. The latest ISOCELL 3.0 technology helps the camera increase light sensitivity to capture a more crystal-clear picture for the user. Furthermore, the Eye Autofocus feature enables the users to be the center of attention while clicking the picture as the camera focuses on the user, even if they are in motion. 

The dual front camera system offers a much larger field of view with the help of its 8MP Super Wide-Angle Camera. Furthermore, with modes like the AI Extreme Night Portrait mode, the front camera delivers an unparalleled experience in this price range. The phone also sports a 64 MP main rear camera with an 8MP wide-angle lens and a 2MP Macro that can handle wide natural landscapes very easily. The user experience is further increased with features like the Super Night Mode, Bokeh Flare Portrait, and Ultra Stabilization. It is only right to say that both, the front camera and the rear camera together offer a device that is picture-perfect.

V23 5G brings out the result of Vivo’s extensive research which is the Color Changing Fluorite AG Design. This material changes its color upon exposure to ultraviolet light and after about 30 seconds under the sun. This switch goes back to normal once the phone is out of sun exposure. Talking more about the appearance of the device, it is the combination of the Metal Flat Frame Design and the Color Changing Fluorite AG Design that gives the device the aesthetic appeal that has been the talk in the industry for a while now. 

All these powerful features that the phone flaunts are powered by the powerful MediaTek Dimensity 920 processor. This processor offers powerful performance and a fast user experience. The Extended RAM 2.0 further enhances the user experience with its versatile features to expand RAM when required. The 90Hz refresh rate display, a Liquid Cooling System, and Ultra Game Mode make it possible for users to enjoy super smooth gameplay performance. This experience is mutually assisted by the 4200mAh battery that features a 44W FlashCharge that helps in interrupted experience and performance. 

To summarise it all, the vivo V23 5G is a proud and well-balanced device that fulfills the requirements of every smartphone enthusiast whether it is for work, casual, or professional usage.

SIMPLY SUFI XPRS 2nd Anniversary Bash is 2 Good 2 be 2rue!

So, premium fast-food brand SIMPLY SUFI XPRS just turned 2 and if you missed the party then don’t worry, I’m here to give you the inside scoop on what went down! Believe me, the SUFI Group of Companies really spared no expense in celebrating with style!

Not only did SIMPLY SUFI XPRS organize an evening of fun and games down at the Emporium Mall, Lahore, they also brought out a limited-time only Anniversary Deal.

And while the SIMPLY SUFI XPRS Anniversary deal is an absolute steal at Rs. 599 for an XPRS Chicken Burger, Chicken Wings, Regular drinks and Fries, it was the fun-fest at Emporium Mall that took the cake.

Literally! They had one of the most phenomenal looking custom cakes for the cake cutting ceremony. People were just lining up to take pictures with it, the minute it arrived.

As amazing as it was, there was a lot more to the event then just cake. There were games and activities for children, guest appearances and some of the crème de la crème of Lahore were in attendance.

The activities at the stall included colouring, games to play, face painting, a media wall to take pictures at and a giant Chicken that kids could meet.

Also invited to the event were the children from SOS Children’s Village. Being firm believers in Corporate Social Responsibility, the SUFI Group of Companies has a long history of supporting the SOS Children’s Village and frequently invite them to celebrations to give the children a chance to enjoy themselves.

The evening was hosted by RJ Rizwan, who made sure that there was never a dull moment and everyone was having a great time. Whether chatting with the crowd or the guests, RJ Rizwan made sure to keep the energy levels high.

The first guests for RJ Rizwan to hang out with were the stars of the popular children’s TV show Chanda Taray. The Chanda Taray kids talked with RJ Rizwan for a bit before doing little skits and leading the crowd in sing-alongs of popular songs.

But the real highlight of the evening was the absolutely gorgeous and amazingly talented Sarwat Gilani!

She took the time to take pictures with the fans before sitting down with RJ Rizwan for a short interview where she talked about her family’s love of Simply Sufi XPRS and how much fun she is having at the second-anniversary celebrations.

Sarwat was also given a tour of the SIMPLY SUFI XPRS facilities and met the staff. She talked to RJ Rizwan about how glad she was to see a Pakistani brand being so diligent in meeting international standards of hygiene and quality.

Right after Sarwat’s tour, the crowd was treated to the cake cutting ceremony and finally had the chance to taste the delicious cake that everyone had been fawning over all evening.

The cake-cutting ceremony ended with a short speech by the SIMPLY SUFI XPRS senior management whereby they thanked the audience of Lahore for all the love and support that they showered over the past two years.

While sharing their future plans, SIMPLY SUFI XPRS Management announced that they are launching new outlets thus expanding the Simply SUFI XPRS network to areas other than Lahore. The first such outlet will be opened in Giga Mall Islamabad! It’s almost 2 Good 2 Be 2rue!

But don’t let the fact that you missed out on all the fun get you down. You can still be a part of the 2nd year anniversary celebrations. Just order a meal from Simply SUFI XPRS and get a chance to participate in the scratch and win contest and be a part of the celebrations.

        Two Pakistanis amongst 16 international young leaders to reduce inequalities in health using digital solutions

        Telenor Group today announced the sixteen delegates who have been selected for the 2018-2019 Telenor Youth Forum, in cooperation with the Nobel Peace Center. This year’s delegation will take on a mission to address inequalities in health through the use of digital technology.

        Human health and related areas, such as access to healthcare and information, and fighting hunger and thirst, continue to top the lists of national and regional development agendas and dialogues. Most recently at the 2018 United Nations General Assembly, non-communicable diseases and universal health care were key topics on the agenda. Health’s omnipresence as a topic and its direct relationship with development, societal empowerment and human equality is why the Telenor Youth Forum has selected it as this year’s theme and focus.

        The 16 Telenor Youth Forum delegates for the 2018-2019 programme are accomplished young leaders in the markets where Telenor operates. They were selected from a talent pool of more than 5,000 applicants, coming from Bangladesh, Denmark, Malaysia, Myanmar, Norway, Pakistan, Sweden and Thailand. From December 2018 to May 2019, the delegates will be challenged to develop solutions that combat inequalities in health from all angles.

        The two delegates selected to represent Pakistan include Maieda Janjua and Asma Ladak. Maieda, a graduate from Dartmouth College with a degree in Computer Science, has dabbled in digital marketing for a travel-tech startup in Latin America, managed business projects for a global education and travel company, worked in product development at an international telco, and, most recently, recruited for a fin-tech startup in Boston. A strong believer in the role technology can play in transforming lives and reducing inequalities, Maieda hopes to get her MBA and continue working at the intersection of tech and social impact.

        Asma, on the other hand, has worked for a variety of national and international leadership and innovation programs including Global Entrepreneurs and The Yale Global Scholars program. A medical student from Aga Khan University, Asma is enthusiastic about the important part that technology and innovation can play in changing the landscape of healthcare.

        “Whether it’s being better able to care for our elders or ensuring healthcareaccess and information for low-income and rural citizens, we all have a lot to gain by bridging health with technology. And who better to contribute to this effort than the 16 youth selected for the Telenor Youth Forum this year?” said Sigve Brekke, Telenor Group President and CEO. “Reducing inequalities in health and in access to health services are integral to building a more promising, more peaceful future. Mobile networks and technology can play a vital role,” he added.

        Irfan Wahab Khan, CEO Telenor Pakistan, further added, “TYF is an amazing opportunity for our youth to collaborate and develop solutions that really impact people’s lives across the globe. We firmly believe that our youth is dedicated, passionate and essential for shaping a better future, and through TYF, we are giving them a platform to join our pursuit of empowering societies. We have high hopes from all the young delegates participating in Telenor Youth Forum and as always, we are expecting to see some really innovative ideas being presented.”

        The Telenor Youth Forum exists to give a global platform to passionate youth who want to effect change in the world – and to connect them with the resources and expertise needed to develop sustainable, digital solutions to urgent social challenges.

        In this year’s programme, the delegation will be divided into four teams, each posed a unique health-related challenge to be announced at the Telenor Youth Forum kick-off in December. To guide the teams from challenge assignment to solution proposal, the following experts at Telenor Group will provide each of the teams coaching and mentorship for the extent of the six-month programme:

        The four teams will be scored throughout the programmebased on concept proposals in Oslo in December, on progress between Oslo and the forum’s finale in Bangkok in May 2019 as well as on their final pitch at the finale. The winning team will be awarded NOK 100,000 to further develop their solutions. The four teams’ challenges, journey and their final concepts are then featured in a digital exhibition, sponsored by Telenor Youth Forum and the programme’s partners at the Nobel Peace Center.

        “Every year, the Nobel Peace Center is pleased to partner with Telenor on this programme because we share a vision of a more peaceful future. We believe that mobilising bright young minds helps us pave the path toward that future,” said Liv Tørres, Executive Director of the Nobel Peace Center. “The technology and connectivity available to the world today makes it possible for all to contribute, and we think youth have the most at stake in starting this change.”

        A digital message in a bottle

        Last year’s winning team, AGNCY, created a whistle blowing platform where workers can file reports to local and international labour organisations. Their challenge was to develop a digital solution that reduces inequalities in working conditions. Their idea was to secure anonymous and verifiable reports of violations in workers’ rights and safety via smartphone from the workers themselves. The team is now building a prototype for their platform. AGNCY’s idea is presented in a multimedia digital exhibition at www.tyfexhibition.com. Their digital exhibition has also been on display in person at the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo.
