Curious vintage Thai ads
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 15/07/2022
» It's always fascinating to look back at print ads from yesteryears as they serve as a window into the past and what values and attitudes were acceptable back then. Even though I think you shouldn't judge work from the past with today's value (look up presentism), I'm going to do that anyway with some of the following vintage ads for your entertainment.
Speedy, not pricey
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 30/04/2021
» Buying a phone on a budget usually means having to set your expectations low. After all, you can't expect to get the same features as the latest high-end release on a mid-tier phone. Though the new Samsung Galaxy A52 doesn't match the superior quality of its S Series siblings, which is a given, it still gives you more value for your buck than you would imagine.

Beauty in brutality

» The Last of Us was a groundbreaking game that took players through an emotional story with nail-biting tension due to trying to sneak around undetected and also having a number of good scares provided by the zombie-like creatures known simply as the Infected. In fact, the game was so good that Neil Druckmann, the game's director, admitted that he was wary of making a sequel. Obviously, they figured out a way to continue the story and make another game that would hopefully satisfy players worldwide. But does it?
Home improvement
Guru, Kankanok Wichiantanon, Published on 17/04/2020
» There are many services and products that we are used to using outside our homes, which we no longer have access to. However, people adapt to changes and most of those services and products can be enjoyed in the comfort of the great indoors. They include absolute essentials, such as hardware needed for work and items to entertain yourself like VR headsets, as well as beauty services. Guru has listed a few such things.
The odd one out
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 13/12/2019
» As the holiday season draws near and your family probably begins to make plans for a family get-together, you may be reminded of that quirky relative you have that you'll probably meet. You know, that uncle or aunt who's bordering on cool and weird, the one who's vegan and who's your go-to person when asking about how to live a more sustainable lifestyle but who also uses those weird products like those from Gwyneth Paltrow's company. This is probably the best way to describe the Samsung Galaxy Fold.
Beauty but a beast
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 30/08/2019
» Smartphones are now the bane of our existence. We can't go anywhere or do anything without it, and most of us probably start wheezing and choking the minute our phones run out of juice or we realise we forgot it at home -- or worse yet, forgot it somewhere we don't remember. Our need for smartphones is evident in the fact that there is a plethora of smartphones to choose from and the endless stream of new models coming out. And into this stream comes Samsung's Galaxy Note 10+, their latest top-tier model which boasts high specs, high performance and a sleek, elegant design that's a total eye-candy. But new releases are nothing new, and with the lack of innovation smartphones are being plagued with nowadays, is the Galaxy Note 10+ any different?

Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 14/12/2018
» If you want to ring in 2019 outside Thailand, Hong Kong has plenty of choices to celebrate with a bang. The good news is that some of the festivities run until Feb. Here are a few highlights.
