    The legendary filmmaker was scheduled for a physical masterclass in Kuala Lumpur last March 2023.

    Toybox Projects aims to contribute to the Malaysian entertainment industry by bringing the world-class pop-up museum “The World of Tim Burton” and the virtual “Tim Burton’s Masterclass” for current and aspiring filmmakers, creatives, young adults, and students of the film and art industry.  With this, Tim Burton and Dato’ Kamil Othman hope to inspire current and aspiring filmmakers, creatives as well as students in Malaysia by providing knowledge, creative input, film tips, and tricks,  to drive individuals to achieve their aspirations and develop quality films and artworks; showcasing what Malaysia has to offer to the rest of the world.

    Fans, film enthusiasts, and visitors from all walks of life can enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn from Tim Burton this 14 April 2023 (Friday) from 9.00 p.m. (GMT+8 Malaysia time) onwards,  for only RM188 per person.  Additionally, as a token of appreciation, those attending will receive an exclusive digital certificate after the masterclass.

Infinix’s association with Garena Free Fire also provides a limited-edition HOT 30 model for RM599, which will be available for purchase countrywide beginning April 14th, while supplies last.

    “At Infinix, we place great importance on understanding the needs of the younger generation and are dedicated to creating trendy, powerful and attainably priced smart devices that bring the latest technology on the market to users worldwide. The latest HOT 30 series is equipped with powerful gaming processors, ample memory, lightning-fast charging capabilities, and the most vivid high-definition screens available in their class. We believe these features take the mobile gaming experience to new heights. Moreover, the HOT 30 series is competitively priced, which we believe will impress every young user seeking high-quality mobile devices,” said Jackie Chen, Country Manager of Infinix Malaysia.

    Infinix HOT 30 & HOT 30 Free Fire Special Edition

    1. Pristine Mobile Entertainment Performance

    The HOT 30 is powered by an 8-core MediaTek Helio G88 processor, containing two powerful ARM Cortex-A75 cores with a maximum frequency of 2.0GHz. This arrangement provides exceptional performance with a comprehensive benchmark score of up to 253,433 on AnTuTu. The device can handle even the most demanding mobile games, including FPS and MOBA genres, with ease and ensures a smooth gameplay experience.

    In addition, the HOT 30’s innovative memory expansion technology enables the device to unlock extra RAM when required, providing the ability to run multiple applications all at once with ease and thus providing a seamless experience even under heavy load. With 8GB + 8GB (16GB) of RAM, the HOT 30 doubles its performance, enabling faster loading times, and supporting up to 18 applications to be opened simultaneously.

    As for software features, the HOT 30 integrates the advanced Dar-Link 3.0 gaming engine, which acts as an accelerator for a smooth gaming experience. This feature provides intelligent sensing by evaluating the load scenario and uses an AI algorithm to preload the required resources, ensuring that key specifics such as image and sound are automatically optimised.

    To further enhance the gaming experience, the HOT 30 also supports Link-Booming and UPS Signal Boost network optimization technology for multi-network adequacy, with WiFi and data working together to keep players connected while scoring their first win. The XArena 3.0 game space, specially designed with gaming fans in mind, is a feature designed to enhance the overall gaming experience by providing a dynamic and engaging atmosphere. With the XArena 3.0, players can easily manage all their phone games and take advantage of the Dar-Link 3.0 gaming engine optimization strategy.

    1. Big Battery Capacity + Fast Charge Technology

    The HOT 30 features a 5000mAh battery that can last throughout the day. In addition, the HOT 30 offers the exclusive Power Marathon power-saving mode, which enables the phone to standby for a whole day or operate continuously for 2 hours at 5% limit. This feature ensures that users can enjoy a worry-free gaming and entertainment experience while on the go.

    For users who need a quick juice-up on battery, Infinix has equipped the HOT 30 with a 33W fast charging technology. This charging technology is about 2 times faster than the previous widely used 18W of its class, enabling the phone to charge up to 55% in just 30 minutes. The charger also comes with a Type-C fast charging cable.

    1. Effortless To The Touch and Immersive Viewing Experience

    The HOT 30 presents itself as a smartphone which aligns to provide fast performance with fun elements to adapt to the lifestyle of the young consumers in Malaysia in this day and age. Thanks to its 6.78-inch perforated screen with a 1080P high resolution, 90Hz refresh rate, and 270Hz touch sampling rate, users will be able to enjoy greater responsiveness, smoother browsing, and rapid gaming controls. The HOT 30’s unique and attractive body design also serves to cater the young and trendy users nationwide. Called Shifting Zone, this design is the combination of two different textures, one is a Fresnel lens texture machined with a single point diamond super-precision lathe, the other is an ultra-precise laser engraving process that uses over 5,000 continuous lines of varying wavelengths and curvature on a near-nanometer scale to create a texture with a sense of spatial dimension and linear speed, ideals for young users in terms of eye-catching designs.

    Besides that, the new HOT 30 also comes with an upgraded proprietary dark area display enhancement technology. Outdoor environments with strong light can make mobile phone screens difficult to see, especially when one is trying to view TikTok videos, or complete a game task. This technology allows for a 20% increase in screen brightness with maximum brightness of 600nit. Plus, the addition of Infinix’s DRE technology makes the screen comfortable and clear to view even in bright outdoor lighting conditions.

    The HOT 30 also comes with DTS Stereo Surround Sound, creating deep bass, strong highs and clear midranges for an immersive audio experience with every use. Paired with the Pace Orientation Enhancement processing, in-game footsteps are more precise and clear, giving players an unprecedented advantage over their rivals in-game.

    1. Be Your Own Content Creator

    Besides gaming and entertainment, the HOT 30 also comes with a 50MP main camera with a large F1.6 aperture, along with 4 LED flashlights and a super night mode to deliver crisp snapshots with incredible levels of detail be it day or night. Amateur photographers will also be able to pick and choose how they will want to portray their night photos with the various super night filters. Moreover, the rise of short video social platforms like TikTok has shown that many people enjoy creating videos with their mobile phones. The HOT 30 is equipped with advanced editing tools that support a variety of professional templates, including soundtracks, transitions, and special effects. With these tools, users can become directors of their own lives and produce videos that they want to showcase to their followers on social media.

    Both models will also have several additional features that pay tribute to the fun-filled battle royale game. Users will be able to enjoy customised wallpapers, icon widgets, sound effects and more to enhance their experience. However, the HOT 30 Free Fire Special Edition alone is inclusive of a custom Free Fire design package sleeve and phone cover.

    Infinix HOT 30i

    “Cashless payment is now a preferred method among customers as it provides an easy,  fast and safe transaction. The organisation of this campaign will encourage the use of  cashless payment methods, further accelerating the acceptance of digital payments.  This will then support the nation’s goal of forming a cashless society,” he said.

    “With that, we want to offer attractive rewards to customers every time they shop using  the Bank Islam Mastercard Credit Card-i. The more payments made using our card, the  more chances of winning. Winners for the campaign will be announced within May  2023.”

    Mizan added that Bank Islam would continue to organise various interesting and relevant  campaigns to benefit loyal customers.
