Where tech meets tempo
Held at NEXUS Bangsar, the day marks more than KOSPET's first on-ground event in the country. It's a quiet statement that technology can move with grace — tracking not only steps, but stress; not just goals, but rhythm.
At a glance, the watches impress with their bold faces and brushed steel bezels. But their magic lies deeper: AMOLED displays that stay bright in midday sun, a choice of magnetic, silicone or knitted straps for every kind of day, and sensors that listen to the body's quiet signals — oxygen levels, sleep cycles, heart rate variability, even moods that rise and fall with the hours.
"With the Magic Series, we've designed something that performs and inspires confidence," begins Johnathan Zheng, marketing director of KOSPET, adding enthusiastically: "These watches reflect a lifestyle that's bold, informed and in motion. It's not just wearable tech; it's a personal statement."
To bring that to life, two names familiar to Malaysian badminton fans — former World No. 10 and Olympian Lee Meng Yean and ex national player-turned- coach Ameer Zainuddin — stepped onto a pop-up court, rallying fast, clean shots that felt more like dance than sport. Each movement synced with the watches' sensors in real time, proving that what's measured best is often what's felt.
But even for those who'll never hold a racquet, the Magic series has something to offer. There's menstrual tracking for women, guided breathing for the tense, and gentle nudges when vitals drift out of range.
Battery life stretches up to 12 days, a gift in a world where we're always running low. Bluetooth 5.3 keeps everything connected without fuss. And when it comes to display size, users can choose the 1.43-inch Magic R10 or the larger 1.96-inch P10, both of which have been designed to keep clarity high and squinting to a minimum.
Retailing at RM699, the Magic R10 and P10 is sold via Shopee, Lazada, TikTok and authorised KOSPET retailers.
In a world where wearables often shout for attention, these timepieces whisper. But if you listen closely enough, they're telling you everything — from your heart rate to your heartbeat moments.

Expert: House arrest can ease prison crowding, but must include safeguards
KUALA LUMPUR: The government's move to introduce house arrest as an alternative to imprisonment has been welcomed as a timely measure to reduce prison overcrowding. However, an expert says its implementation must come with clear guidelines, targeted eligibility, and strong monitoring systems to ensure its effectiveness. The Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (Suhakam) former Commissioner and academic Professor Datuk Noor Aziah Mohd Awal said the initiative reflects a progressive step towards reforming the penal system, especially for low-risk and remand detainees. "I certainly welcome the government's intention to implement home arrest. "As a former Suhakam commissioner, I have been involved in efforts to address prison congestion and overcrowding. "Home arrest will definitely reduce the number of detainees. More importantly, it would allow individuals to continue working and supporting their families while serving their sentence at home under certain conditions," she told the New Straits Times. Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail recently announced that the ministry is in the final phase of finalising a bill on house arrest. The proposal has already received policy approval and is aimed at curbing overcrowding in Malaysian prisons. Noor Aziah said that while house arrest offers a practical solution, it should be one of several alternatives in a broader reform framework. "It's definitely an effective measure, but just one option. We must also ensure that it applies to remand prisoners, who currently make up nearly one-third of the prison population." She proposed that the policy focus on specific categories of offenders to maximise its impact, especially those who pose minimal public safety risks. "We hope house arrest will apply to groups such as senior citizens (65 and above), women, and those with chronic illnesses." On enforcement, she expressed confidence in the Prisons Department, citing their existing systems for monitoring individuals on parole and those released with licence conditions. "I am sure the government is studying models from other countries that have successfully implemented home arrest," she added.

Local Companies Urged To Showcase Homegrown Products At DSA & NATSEC Asia 2026
Defence Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin (second, left) visits the exhibition site of the 17th International Defence Industry Fair (IDEF 2025) as part of his three-day official visit to Istanbul. --fotoBERNAMA (2025) COPYRIGHT RESERVED From Mohd Adli Shahar ISTANBUL, July 26 (Bernama) -- Malaysian companies have been urged to showcase their own locally developed products at the Defence Services Asia (DSA) and National Security (NatSec) Asia 2026 Exhibition in Kuala Lumpur, as part of efforts to strengthen the nation's defence industry. Defence Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin said the exhibition, scheduled to take place in April next year, serves as a key platform to showcase the country's defence and military advancements, as well as to foster collaboration among various industry players. He added that the products on display could include those developed using local technology or through partnerships with foreign companies. 'I hope next year's DSA will be more meaningful by highlighting the participation of Malaysian companies that are now actively establishing themselves in the defence industry. 'Previously, many local participants were merely representatives of foreign firms. However, we hope that next year's edition will also include companies developing their own homegrown technology,' he told reporters here. Mohamed Khaled is currently in Türkiye for a three-day official visit to attend the International Defence Industry Fair (IDEF) 2025 and to inspect the construction of the second batch of three Littoral Mission Ships (LMS) by defence company Savunma Teknolojileri Mühendislik (STM). In a related development, Mohamed Khaled said several memoranda of understanding (MoUs) between Malaysian and foreign companies were signed during his attendance at IDEF 2025. He said the MoUs covered various areas, including satellite communication solutions, joint development programmes for defence electronic systems, electronic warfare products, and the production of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems.
