Standard Chartered Breeze

Jacelyn — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 15:46:02 +0000

Last month, Standard Chartered (SCB) held a blogger’s breakfast to introduce the latest iPhone app, Breeze for mobile banking.

The first look at the cheery looking interface really lifted up my mood. I love how the background changes from day to night accordingly. Having said that, the buttons were lovely designed!

Promotions were also categorized accordingly, absolutely useful for shopaholics like us.

One of the best features, Breeze e-Cheque! A paperless way of sending cheques to your recipients, I really love this innovative idea. Having a simple and user-friendly app is one of the key things that I look for. I’m really tempted to get a Standard Chartered bank account already!

I Can Has The iPhone

Jacelyn — Wed, 30 Dec 2009 03:56:58 +0000

I’m done procrastinating, I finally got the iPhone!

I think it came just in time when my contract with SingTel was up in November. I’ve been considering to switch telco since I get to enjoy corporate rate with StarHub.

I reserved the set immediately when StarHub first announced that they are accepting pre-orders. I made an appointment with them on 19 Dec and collected it at iHub. The CSO promised me that it will take 3 – 5 working days to process my application. My application form was only submitted on the 26 Dec. You do the math. I shall not elaborate on the dramatic situation I was in over the past few days.

It was hard to decide between the black and the white one. The black is sleek yet stylish and the white is clean yet chic-looking. After getting assurance from my colleague who insisted that the white one will not turn yellowish, I got the white one! I think it suits me better.

Bought a casing to protect the back of the iPhone. I will be buying crystals to bling it though.

These are some of the apps which I have downloaded. Totally loving them!

Remember to gimme a “high five” if you do see me around!

HTC Unveils YOU Campaign and HTC Tattoo

Jacelyn — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 13:00:05 +0000

HTC unveils the latest HTC Tattoo and rebranding of HTC at Butter Factory. The YOU campaign is being rolled out across 20 countries in the coming weeks and features the following witty tagline:

“You don’t need to get a phone. You need a phone that gets you”.

It mainly focuses on YOU, the consumers and not the device itself.

Check out their latest TV commercials.

Back to the launch. Upon entering the club, we each got ourselves an Android tattoo on the back of our hands. Cute isn’t it?

Nicole’s and Neo’s tattoos.

Remember the flash mob which was held at Raffles Place and Orchard Road? We got a chance to get up close with them. Did you notice that the song lyrics focus on YOU? I think they really did a good job!

Other than that, they even presented a fashion show from Springfield.

A fanciful display of the HTC Tattoo.

HTC Tattoo VS a real tattoo. Hahaa..

The real HTC Tattoo! It’s really lightweight and fitted nicely onto my palm! Too bad I didn’t get to play around with it much. The hand in this photo belongs to Chester by the way, hhaha..

Me with Alvin.

L to R: Dorothy, Nicole, myself and DK.

We even had free flow of sake and Asahi beer! I truly enjoyed myself with the rest of the bloggers. Many thanks to The Right Spin for the invitation.

SingTel INQ Mini 3G Launch

Jacelyn — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 03:22:08 +0000

[Advertorial]

SingTel is the first in Asia to launch INQ Mini 3G, the ultimate 3G social networking mobile phone. The media launch was held at Supperclub @ Odeon Towers

The INQ Mini 3G is a fairly simple phone to use that’s integrated with Twitter, Facebook, Windows Live and Skype. Twit as and when you like, check out your friends’ Facebook status updates and chat on IM wherever you go. All your messages can be accessed in one single inbox. Really convenient, isn’t it?

You can even synchronize the address book with your Facebook and Twitter contacts to get your friends’ latest updates. With the INQ widgets, it fetches you live news, weather and feeds straight to your INQ Mini 3G.

The INQ Mini 3G is really slim and light. However, the keypad seems a little difficult to use. Probably due to my long nails

Look at these pretty cupcakes with various social media icons. I ate up Facebook!

After the media launch, we were invited to the official launch which was held at Ngee Ann City. There, we had a chance to mingle around and try on the INQ Mini 3G!

Here’s Jesseca Liu in the glasshouse!

With Jesseca Liu and some other bloggers

Are you INQ yet?

Many thanks to SingTel and 24seven for the invite
