Just because Huawei isn't the market leader in the world of tech, that doesn't mean this Chinese brand is out of the game just yet.

Starting with the MatePad Pro – this sleek tablet is the culmination of years of expert engineering that is made to be a revolutionary tool for on-the-go workers and artists alike.

Moo-ving incentive: Cow is lucky draw grand prize at Guai fun run
BERA: The organiser of the inaugural 5km Guai state constituency fun run next month has announced that the lucky draw grand prize is a live cow. The bovine bonus has sparked significant interest in the fun run, with many people expressing their intention to join for a chance to bring the cow home. The event poster said the lucky draw grand prize winner will get a cow, while 20 other participants will get electrical goods and hampers. Netizens had a field day with the announcement. One commenter asked about the breed of the cow, while another quipped, "Alamak! Hari Raya Haji has passed!" Facebook user Emma Lynchey said: "Imagine the grand prize winner keeping it as a pet instead." Some comments were more serious, pointing out that a cow is a valuable commodity that can fetch a few thousand ringgit. The fun run organiser clarified to the New Straits Times that the cow image on the poster was for illustration purposes only. The July 5 fun run will be flagged off by Guai assemblyman and Pahang Social Welfare, Women, Family and Community Development Committee chairman Datuk Sabariah Saidan at the Kampung Seberang Guai multipurpose hall.

US singer Chris Brown pleads not guilty in UK assault case
LONDON: American R&B singer Chris Brown today pleaded not guilty in a UK court to a charge stemming from an alleged London nightclub brawl in 2023. Brown, 36, wearing a dark suit and tie as well as glasses, stood in the dock in London as the charge was put to him, replying: "Not guilty, ma'am." The singer, who is on £5 million (RM28.7 million) bail, waved to people in the public gallery as he left, following his plea to allegedly attempting to cause grievous bodily harm with intent. A five to seven-day long trial was scheduled to start on Oct 26, 2026. The singer was held in custody for a nearly a week in May after he was arrested in the northwestern city of Manchester. He was later released on bail. Under the terms of his bail, he will forfeit the £5 million guarantee if he fails to return for court proceedings. He was also given the go-ahead to continue his scheduled international tour which began on June 8 in Amsterdam. The star, who had a troubled relationship with Barbadian singer Rihanna, is on the UK leg of his tour, with his next date in London tomorrow. Brown is charged with attempting to cause grievous bodily harm with intent in relation to an assault in which the victim was allegedly struck several times with a bottle before being pursued, punched and kicked. The alleged incident took place at a nightclub in Hanover Square in London on Feb 19, 2023 while Brown was touring in the UK. Police detained him in the early hours of May 13 at a five-star hotel in Manchester after he reportedly flew in by private jet. Other bail terms include that he should surrender his passport if he is not travelling. He is also required to live at a specific address known to the court and is not permitted to visit the nightclub where the alleged assault took place or contact the alleged victim, Abraham Diah. He appeared in the dock with co-defendant Omololu Akinlolu, a US national, with whom he is jointly charged. Akinlolu also entered a not guilty plea to the same charge of attempting to cause grievous bodily harm with intent. Both men are also jointly charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm. They will enter pleas to that charge on July 11, the court was told. Brown also faces a third charge of having an offensive weapon, a bottle, in public. The Grammy-winning singer is known for mid-2000s hits such as "Kiss, Kiss." He rose from a local church choir in Virginia to sudden fame with his rich R&B voice and later rap, but his reputation has been tarnished by the allegations of abuse.
