» There is a particular kind of Saturday morning that has become recognisable in certain Bangkok circles. Someone wakes at 5am, checks their recovery score on their Whoop band, approves of the number, and heads to the airport. Not for a holiday or a work trip, but for a fitness race in Singapore.

» Samsung’s Galaxy S26 Ultra has arrived in Thailand as a privacy-first flagship built for life in crowded places, led by a built-in “Privacy Display” that makes your screen harder to read from the sides — a handy trick on BTS platforms, in airport lounges and at café tables where strangers sometimes sit close enough to know your bank balance and your bad taste in group chats.
