How the Galaxy Buds3 FE Makes Great Sound Affordable

 

Every time you put in your earbuds, the world changes, music comes alive, voices sound clearer, and suddenly everything feels sharper. Getting that kind of experience without a high price tag doesn’t happen by chance. It’s the result of smart engineering and thoughtful choices.

The Galaxy Buds3 FE shows how engineers balance sound quality, useful features, and cost to create earbuds that feel premium, even when they’re designed to be affordable.

Designing for What Really Matters

When creating a value product, engineers don’t chase every high-end feature. Instead, they focus on what users actually care about:

• Clear, balanced sound across all kinds of music

• A comfortable fit for long wear

• Reliable Bluetooth connection

• Good battery life

• Noise control that works in daily life

Every decision is tested against one simple question: “Will this make a real difference for the user?”

Sound That Hits the Sweet Spot

At the heart of great sound is the driver, the tiny speaker inside each earbud.

Instead of using the biggest or most expensive ones, engineers carefully tune a balanced driver that delivers:

• Punchy bass that feels full, not muddy

• Clear vocals and crisp highs

• A sound that feels rich and satisfying for most listeners

Smart design choices, like the shape of the ear tips and internal chamber, help enhance bass naturally without needing costly parts.

Smart Software That Works Behind the Scenes

A lot of what makes the Buds3 FE sound so good comes from software:

• Adaptive EQ adjusts audio based on how the earbuds fit in your ears.

• Noise management balances clarity and comfort without draining battery life.

• Audio tuning is based on how people perceive sound, not just lab readings, so it feels natural and enjoyable.

Because software can be updated over time, users continue to benefit from improvements even after purchase.

Noise Control That’s Practical

The Buds3 FE doesn’t try to beat the most expensive noise-cancelling earbuds, and that’s by design.

Instead, it combines:

• Lightweight active noise cancelling (ANC)  that reduces steady background sounds like bus engines or air conditioners

• Strong passive isolation, achieved through snug ear tips that block outside noise naturally

Together, these give you quiet comfort without draining battery or raising costs.

Clear Calls, Smarter Mics

For calls, engineers focus on clarity, not just mic count. The Buds3 FE uses:

• High-quality MEMS microphones that capture your voice cleanly

• Smart beamforming and noise reduction to minimize wind and background noise

• Phone-assisted processing, which helps improve call clarity while keeping the earbuds efficient

Battery and Everyday Use

The Buds3 FE battery is tuned for real-life use, not bragging rights.

• Efficient chipsets and Bluetooth management stretch battery life without adding bulk.

It’s the right balance between convenience, size, and performance.

Built Smart, Built to Last

Behind every pair of earbuds is a production process optimized for quality and consistency.

• Shared components and automated testing keep costs low and reliability high.

• Simplified assembly means fewer parts, faster production, and fewer defects.

These details make it possible to deliver great performance without premium pricing. After all the technical work, engineers test the Buds3 FE with real listeners, comparing sound, comfort, and call quality. They tune it for what people actually hear rather than what looks perfect on a chart. Because the Buds3 FE supports firmware updates, it can get even better over time, with improved sound profiles, better connectivity, and refined ANC performance.

The Big Idea: Smart Choices, Not Shortcuts

The Galaxy Buds3 FE proves that great products aren’t about cutting corners, they’re about making smart choices

By focusing on what truly matters to listeners, sound, comfort, battery life, and reliable performance, Samsung engineers created earbuds that deliver more than their price suggests.

It’s proof that good engineering isn’t about adding everything, it’s about choosing the right things.

Emirates orders 65 additional Boeing 777X aircraft, worth US$ 38 billion at Dubai Airshow 2025

 Emirates, the world’s largest international airline, today announced orders for 65 additional Boeing 777-9 aircraft, powered by GE 9X engines, worth US$ 38 billion at list prices, on the opening day of Dubai Airshow 2025.

This takes the airline’s total orderbook with Boeing to 315 widebody aircraft, comprising 270 Boeing 777Xs, 10 Boeing 777 freighters, and 35 Boeing 787s; and its orderbook with GE Aerospace for GE9X engines to a total of 540 units including the 130 additional units signed today. This is a massive long-term commitment to US aerospace manufacturing, generating support for hundreds of thousands of high value manufacturing jobs in the US over the life of the programmes.

Emirates’ latest agreement with Boeing also provides strong backing for Boeing’s feasibility study to develop the 777-10, a larger variant of its 777X family, with the airline signing up for options to convert its latest 777-9 order into the 777-10 or the 777-8.

HH Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman and Chief Executive, Emirates Airline and Group said: “Emirates is already the world’s largest Boeing 777 operator and we are expanding our commitment to the programme today with additional orders worth US$ 38 billion for 65 Boeing 777-9s, and 130 GE9X engines. This is a long-term commitment and testament to our partnership with Boeing and GE, and to US aerospace.

“Each of our aircraft on order has been carefully factored into Emirates’ expansion plan, which is aligned to Dubai’s growth plans. Flying a young and modern fleet with innovative cabin products has always been a cornerstone of Emirates’ strategy, and we look forward to continue working closely with Boeing to receive delivery of our first 777-9s from Q2 of 2027, and to equip our latest aircraft with state-of-the-art, industry-leading onboard products.”

Commenting on the 777-10 study, HH Sheikh Ahmed said: “Emirates has been open about the fact that we are keen for manufacturers to build larger capacity aircraft, which are more efficient to operate especially with projected air traffic growth and increasing constraints at airports. We fully support Boeing’s feasibility study to develop the 777-10 and have options to convert our latest 777-9 order to the 777-10 or the 777-8.”

Stephanie Pope, President and CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes said: “We are deeply honoured that Emirates has once again selected the Boeing 777X to power its future as the airline refreshes its world-class fleet and expands its vaunted global network. Boeing has been a proud supporter of Emirates over the past 40 years as the airline has grown into one of the world’s leading carriers and developed a reputation for excellence and innovation. We look forward to growing our partnership and for Emirates to fly Boeing airplanes for decades to come.”

Russell Stokes, President & CEO, Commercial Engines & Services for GE Aerospace said: “We are proud to deepen our decades-long partnership with Emirates as we advance the future of flight together. Already the world’s largest customer for GE90 and GP7200 engines, this additional GE9X order reflects Emirates’ confidence in our technology and our team. We are ready to support Emirates in every way to leverage the efficiency and durability of our industry-leading solutions and services.” 

Over its 40-year history, Emirates has operated every model in the Boeing 777 family and today flies the largest 777 fleet in the world, powered by GE90 engines. Emirates’ 119 Boeing 777-300ERs, 10 Boeing 777-200LRs, and 11 Boeing 777 freighters connect Dubai to over 140 cities and facilitate trade, commerce and tourism traffic across six continents. 

After today’s order, Emirates will be expecting Boeing aircraft deliveries up to 2038, a long-term commitment and partnership that will engage the skill and craftmanship of many thousands of workers who manufacture and assemble the 777X and GE9X engines at locations throughout the United States including in Alabama, Kansas, Kentucky, Indiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, Texas, Vermont and Washington.

Work Smarter, Anywhere — The Galaxy Tab S11 Series Redefines Portable Productivity

 

The way we work has changed, and so must the tools that power it. In a world where offices can be coffee tables, airplanes, or shared studios, productivity is no longer about where you are, but how seamlessly you can move between tasks, and devices. The Galaxy Tab S11 Series, Samsung’s latest innovation built for the modern professional, creator, and multitasker.

This new generation of Samsung tablets marks a pivotal leap forward in portable productivity, anchored by the upgraded Samsung DeX, now faster, more fluid, and smarter with One UI 8. What once required booting into a separate desktop mode now unfolds effortlessly. Users can now open apps in resizable windows, drag and drop content between screens, and switch between workspaces with a single swipe. It’s a more natural, desktop-like experience that flows with the rhythm of modern multitasking.

The brilliance of this new DeX lies in its seamlessness. It eliminates friction, allowing users to move fluidly between creative and professional tasks, editing photos in one window, joining a video call in another, and referencing notes on the side, all without missing a beat. In this form, DeX is no longer just a mode, it’s a mindset, one that blurs the lines between flexibility and focus.

Supporting this elevated experience is Multi Control, Samsung’s cross-device feature that unites phone and tablet into a single, intelligent workspace. With one keyboard and trackpad, users can control both devices, copy and paste text, or drag images between screens as naturally as they would between desktop monitors. It’s the kind of thoughtful integration that makes multitasking not just easier, but instinctive.

Then there’s the S Pen, precise, intuitive, and always ready to capture ideas. Whether you’re signing contracts, sketching a concept, or annotating a presentation, the S Pen bridges creativity and productivity with the immediacy of pen on paper. Combined with the tablet’s vivid AMOLED display and featherlight design, it transforms the Tab S11 into a canvas for both inspiration and execution.

Beyond its features, the Tab S11 represents something bigger, a reflection of how work has evolved. It’s for the professionals who carry their office in their bag, for creators who design wherever they find light, and for thinkers who see every place as a workspace.

With its powerful performance, seamless cross-device control, and reimagined multitasking experience, the Galaxy Tab S11 Series redefines what it means to be productive, proving that real work no longer needs to stay confined to a desk.

 

The Galaxy Tab S11 Series is now available in Malaysia from 19 September 2025, starting from RM3,899. The Galaxy Tab S11 comes with a Book Cover Keyboard Slim and S Pen worth RM908, while the Tab S11 Ultra comes with the same accessories worth RM1,208.

New Features on One UI 8 Watch Help Users Build Healthier Habits

 When it comes to health, small changes can make a big difference. Every incremental improvement to daily habits contribute to a healthier whole, and the upcoming One UI 8 Watch is designed to help build these habits more effectively through a suite of new features that support sleep, heart health, fitness and nutrition.

What’s New:

New features  include Bedtime Guidance  to optimize sleep; Vascular Load  to measure stress on the vascular system during sleep; Running Coach  to support personalized training strategies; and Antioxidant Index  to measure carotenoid levels for healthy aging. These features — part of One UI 8 Watch on the latest Galaxy Watch series — will be available to a limited number of users through a beta program. 

Why it Matters:

The goal of these new features is to help build healthier daily habits — which can be challenging as they don’t develop overnight. It takes time to form lasting behavior patterns, and meaningful change often becomes visible only after sustained effort. But the rewards are worth i

For example, while eating unhealthy food may not have an immediate impact, it can lead to significant health consequences over time. Conversely, healthy habits may not produce instant results, but they often contribute to long-term physical and mental well-being.

“Sleep remains a cornerstone of our approach to health as it influences physical and mental well-being, social relationships and even work performance,” said Dr. Hon Pak, Senior Vice President and Head of Digital Health Team, Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics. “Now, we envision the Galaxy Watch delivering holistic insights centered around sleep — insights that lead to meaningful changes in daily life. We believe this aligns with our vision of empowering people to lead healthier lives through proactive care and holistic health management.”

New Features

Samsung Health’s new features are designed to help users build healthy habits by providing instant feedback as a motivating tool.

Bedtime Guidance

A single night of restful sleep offers immediate health benefits, encouraging proactive behavioral changes that contribute to a healthier tomorrow. This begins with setting and maintaining a consistent, optimal bedtime.

• Samsung continually advances its sleep-related features, including sleep pattern analysis, sleep coaching, tools for optimizing sleep environments and a feature that detects signs of sleep apnea  — a common sleep disorder.

• Now, Samsung is introducing additional tools for better sleep, such as recommending an optimal bedtime based on individual lifestyle and sleep patterns along with reminders to help users stay consistent.

• By analyzing sleep data from the past three days, the feature evaluates both sleep pressure and circadian rhythm to suggest a bedtime that maximizes alertness the next day.

• This feature is especially helpful for those recovering from periods of irregular sleep. If users go to bed later than planned for several days or follow inconsistent schedules between weekdays and weekends, Bedtime Guidance will consider these factors to help ensure sufficient rest.

Vascular Load

Sleep is a window into overall health, influencing holistic well-being. The Galaxy Watch series leverages this opportunity to measure vascular load — the amount of stress on the vascular system during sleep.

• The vascular system carries blood throughout the body to deliver oxygen and nutrients while removing waste, making it a key indicator of heart health.

• During sleep, stress on the vascular system should naturally decrease. However, excessive fluctuations may negatively impact cardiovascular health.

• By wearing the Galaxy Watch during sleep, users can receive insights into vascular load and the stress placed on their vascular system. 

• Because health factors are interconnected, Vascular Load also provides insight into lifestyle components such as sleep, exercise and stress — helping users maintain a healthier routine and build positive habits.

Running Coach

 

While sleep is a vital time to restore and support overall health, managing well-being during active moments is equally important. Running is one of the most accessible fitness activities, and Samsung has long supported runners by offering features that promote consistent training and help users reach their fitness goals.

• Many runners experience injuries due to over-pacing or undertraining. Running Coach is designed to help users train safely for marathons through optimized intensity and injury-preventive routines, making it ideal for beginners.

• The feature offers motivation and real-time guidance, creating a personalized training program based on the runner’s fitness level

• By wearing the Galaxy Watch and running for 12 minutes, users receive a performance analysis and a running level score from 1 to 10. Based on this data, a detailed training plan is generated to support completion of a 5K, 10K, half marathon or full marathon. As users complete sessions, they level up and unlock their next running challenge.

Antioxidant Index

A holistic approach to health naturally includes a focus on aging and healthy aging. However, behavioral factors such as alcohol consumption, smoking, UV exposure, stress and lack of sleep can accelerate aging by increasing free radicals in the body that damage cells. Antioxidants, compounds found in many healthy foods, neutralize these free radicals to help prevent chronic illness and support healthy aging.

• The Galaxy Watch can measure carotenoids — antioxidants found in green and orange fruits and vegetables — that are stored in the skin.

• Antioxidant Index uses an industry-first feature to assess carotenoid levels in just five seconds via an advanced, light-activated BioActive Sensor.

• These insights can reflect behavioral changes. For example, drinking carrot juice may result in a measurable change in the index, offering motivation to adopt healthier habits.

Great health comes from the combination of many small changes — and with Galaxy Watch, it’s now more achievable than ever.

Today is the final day! Grab the all new Galaxy Watch Series with these rebates as well to expand your Galaxy ecosystem:

Emirates adds another ‘Best International Airline’ award to its portfolio of accolades

 Emirates has garnered another slew of awards this month, including ‘Best International Airline’, ‘Best International First Class’, and ‘Best International Airline Lounge’ from the Forbes Travel Guide Verified Air Travel Awards, as well as a host of titles from entities such as the World Travel Awards, The Times and Sunday Times Travel Awards, and the Conde Nast Readers’ Choice Awards.

For the second year running, Emirates has been voted as the Best International Airline by 9,000 frequent fliers in the hospitality industry, including luxury travel advisors and Forbes Travel Guides inspectors, with results validated using a star ratings system. Forbes detailed why Emirates was selected as the ‘Best International Airline.’

‘The secret to the Dubai-based airline’s success is that it continually refines every aspect of the passenger experience. For example, Emirates recently debuted an opulent lounge-like check-in area for its First-Class and Skywards Platinum members, and it’s the first autism-certified airline, with more than 30,000 cabin crew and ground staff trained to support travellers with autism.’

Echoing the same sentiment, Emirates was revealed as the ‘Best Long-Haul Airline’ at The Times and The Sunday Times Travel Awards 2025 – cast from 900,000 reader votes. This award was credited to Emirates for its ‘cabin crew service, First Class suites (including showers) and fleet of roomy Airbus A380s.’ The Times also mentioned that Emirates continues to expand its footprint and has ‘connected the Middle East to five new destinations this year, including Shenzhen in southern China' and 'Siem Reap, the entry point to the Angkor Wat complex in Cambodia.’

Emirates also recently scored 87.86 in the Conde Nast Readers’ Choice Awards Best Airline Category, as well as winning the title of Middle East's leading airline brand at the regional finals of the World Travel Awards 2025.

Emirates takes first place for its First Class, across multiple awards

Emirates is the world’s largest operator of international First Class travel - offering 26,800 seats a week and the largest inventory of international First Class seats in the industry, entirely comprised of private suites. At the recent Forbes awards, Emirates also claimed ‘Best International First Class -Emirates First Class on the Boeing 777-300ER’ for its suites that ‘deliver sky-high luxury: floor-to-ceiling doors, zero-gravity seats, Bulgari fragrances and food—ranging from movie snacks to caviar’, as well as ‘extras like chauffeured transfers, a service that helps passengers quickly navigate connections in Dubai and airport lounge access’.

Emirates was bestowed the title of Forbes’ ‘Best International Airline Lounge’ for its First Class Lounge in Dubai which offers ‘everything a traveller could need and more: delicious dishes ranging from baked John Dory to 72-hour braised beef short ribs, a cigar bar, bar, shower spas, a complimentary 15-minute spa treatment and plentiful areas to rest or work. Though arguably the best perk is the convenient direct boarding from the lounge.’

Emirates also won several more honours for its First Class offering at the World Travel Awards 2025 regional final - Middle East's leading airline – First Class and Middle East's leading airline lounge – First Class.

Earlier in 2025, Emirates was honoured with several awards including Best Long-Haul Airline at The Telegraph Travel Awards, 2025's Most Recommended Global Brand by YouGov, and multiple categories at the Business Traveller Middle East Awards, such as Best Airline Worldwide for the 12th consecutive year, Best First Class, Best Premium Economy Class, and Best Airport Lounge in the Middle East. Additionally, Emirates Skywards was named as the Best Global Airline Loyalty Program at the International Loyalty Awards 2025 and the World Travel Awards Middle East's leading airline rewards programme.

“Ferrari has always stood for performance, passion, and excellence. The LEGO Ferrari Build & Race attraction is a fun, interactive way to share that spirit with new generations,” added Benoit Montaigne, Global Creative Manager Experience at Ferrari.

Fueling Tourism and Family Experiences

With its blend of STEAM-inspired play, hands-on building, and digital interaction, the attraction is expected to be a must-visit highlight for the year-end school holidays, attracting visitors from across the region and neighbouring Singapore.

This milestone follows a year of exciting developments at LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort, including MINILAND Singapore and the world’s first LEGO Flower Garden MINILAND, further strengthening the resort’s role in driving Johor’s tourism and economic growth.
