Adventure-Ready Amazfit T-Rex Ultra Pushes Boundaries – Strong and Smart

Finally arriving in Malaysia with new features including downloadable maps, sky sports with automatic GPS mode

Zepp Health Corporation (Zepp), a leading specialist in smart wearables and health technology, has announced that its latest T-Rex Ultra smartwatch is now available in Malaysia. The T-Rex Ultra offers adventure-seekers the ultimate in multi-environment experience through the latest in hi-tech military-grade hardware and software, monitoring, tracking and GPS.

Mr. Wu Jin, General Manager, APAC of Amazfit Malaysia said, “In the fast-paced smart wearable industry, we are constantly pushing ourselves to innovate. This newly launched T-Rex Ultra is packed with massive functionalities and smart technology. It comes with a user-friendly interface featuring a stainless steel body, a BioTracker PPG biometric sensor which supports blood-oxygen tracking, and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi support that enables a multi-environment experience through an optimum series of new features. This is the ideal watch for every outdoor activity; from off-road motorcycling, skydiving, alpine skiing to a walk-in-the-park, sitting on the beach or a dip-in-the-pool.”

“The appearance and weight are just right for a smartwatch. Overall, the design is very cool, and the functions are very user-friendly,” said Amazfit supporter Ms. Wayne Phoo, DJ at MYFM, who is also an avid diver, “I’m a very active person, but I never had the habit of paying attention to my health indicators. With this Amazfit T-Rex Ultra on my wrist, I can monitor my heart rate, BMI index, step count, exercise records, and more.

The smart watch supports freediving to 30 meters, with 10 ATM water-resistant, making it my perfect diving companion. The freediving function calculates water depth and has a breathing exercise function that helps with underwater activities. Even non-free divers can use this function to track their breathing.”

Wayne said, “The battery life is very long. I had more than 20% battery life left after using it actively for a week.”

Another Amazfit advocate, En. Ammar Salehan, who is also an active explorer, said, “Amazfit T-Rex Ultra’s GPS function with dual-band satellite is solid! I’m extremely pleased with this very helpful safety tool as it can be used as a guide for the correct path and minimizes the probability of getting lost during a hike. The mud-resistant buttons ensure that the smart watch will continue to operate even if the trail is muddy and nasty. A plus point is the altitude assistance and usable offline maps which can be uploaded to the watch to keep the explorer safe on a journey.”

A smart function is that the compass can be set on the watch display and auto GPS mode. For someone who often goes into the forest, the compass is used as a direction pointer. As a Muslim, knowing where Qibla, the direction of Mecca is helpful and easy with the compass.

Ammar explained, “The watch is charged with USB, so it was easy for me when I’m in the forest, all I need is a power bank. The completed trail and activities can also be shared with health and fitness apps on my phone. Capturing the events of the adventure can be done through the connection to a GoPro camera for those once-in-a-lifetime moments.”

The Amazfit T-Rex Ultra comes with adjustable lugs, 6 GPS satellites, 120 watch faces, an altimeter, compass, weather, tides, sun and moon coverage, and the incomparable Zepp OS, now version 2.0. The T-Rex Ultra comes in two colours, Abyss Black and Sahara, and is available now on Shopee and Lazada for RM1,899. On first come, first serve basis, customers will walk away with one set of waterproof drybag, wind jacket and sport bottle upon purchase on 18th May 2023.

CleverTap Benchmark Reports: Foodtech Apps enjoy 60% higher Repeat Transaction Rates compared to E-commerce apps

CleverTap, the World’s #1 retention cloud, released the findings of its Foodtech and E-Commerce industry Benchmark Reports. Foodtech and e-commerce apps experienced exponential growth during the pandemic. According to App Annie’s State of Mobile Report 2022, time spent on shopping apps scaled to more than 100 billion hours – up 18% year-on-year. Users spent 50% more sessions YoY in 2021 than in 2020 on foodtech apps. The benchmark reports reflect data collected from Asia-Pacific, Europe, India, Latin America, Middle-East, and North America.

The findings offer insight into how consumers engage with foodtech and e-commerce apps. Marketers can craft and deliver personalized messages and campaigns that can help drive engagement, retention, and growth. Some of the key metrics in the report include:

https://www.acnnewswire.com/docs/Multimedia/20230509_CleverTap.jpg

“The findings from our benchmark reports are aimed to help marketers improve engagement and user journeys by providing insights into the behavior of e-commerce and foodtech app users.” said Jacob Joseph, VP-Data Science, CleverTap. “As the app economy continues to expand, foodtech and e-commerce marketers will need to find ways to drive customer ‘stickiness’ which currently stands at a meager 15% and 17% respectively. Customized messaging informed by behavioral insights are crucial to get customers to return to the app interface and drive up this metric.”

For e-commerce marketers, the challenge and opportunity is to ensure that their company’s app not only stands out in a crowded and fiercely competitive market. But also encourages users to make quick purchases, return frequently to buy more, and hopefully, spend a sizable sum with each transaction.

16% of new users of foodtech apps complete more than one transaction in the first week. Best-in-class customer service will help boost this metric and keep customers returning for more. Foodtech companies need to be quick to offer special deals to new users and drive conversions. The benchmark report helps foodtech and e-commerce apps understand how to build successful mobile communication campaigns, and also allows growth marketers to discover areas that require greater focus.

Amplifidor Closes Pre-Seed Funding Round to Disrupt the Influencer Industry

Amplifidor, the forthcoming web and mobile platform that aims to transform the influencer industry by bridging the gap between creators, brands, and fans, has successfully closed on its pre-seed funding. The funding round was led by multiple institutional and value-add angel investors who recognized the potential of the platform’s innovative approach to influencer marketing automation and network relations management.

Amplifidor resonate graphic – Amplifidor icon, logo, and branding pattern.

The Amplifidor platform has been designed as a space for open collaboration between influencers and their communities, along with brands and their stockholders. The platform’s amplified discovery algorithms suggest collaboration candidates based on users’ interests and shared values, making it easier than ever to find new opportunities, and join ongoing campaigns, which are called “missions”.

Creators can manage their network, track their growth, and find new creators or brands to work with, while brands are able to search for the perfect creators or communities that fit their needs, track their influencer ROI, and manage their collaborations all in one place. Brands can also unleash their internal influence by discovering and engaging internal influencers and stakeholders, like employees, investors, advisors and others.

Mr. Adel Alsubeaei is also announced to be joining the board of directors, bringing extensive entrepreneurial & financial expertise, and ecosystem connections. Mr. Adel has more than 20 years of experience in the financial industry while serving on boards of directors at various institutions and other committees. Mr. Adel had this to say about the future of Amplifidor: “This investment will enable a truly industry-shaking platform to enter public beta, first in the MENA region and then throughout the world. Social marketing is very siloed at the moment – a platform that makes collaborative relationships more fluid is a very big deal.”

Chief Vision Officer and founder of Amplifidor, Faisal Alqahtani, a recognized thought-leader on social influence, and the mastermind behind many influencer marketing industry innovations and standards, such as “The Fair Market Pricing Initiative”, “The Social Influence Matrix” and the “Direct Influence Strategy Format”, has led strategy and execution with multiplied ROI and cost savings for over 500 high-profile startups, brands, and government programs (G20, Riyadh Season, Hungerstation, etc). Faisal recognized that the concept of “influencers” was becoming less and less accessible, while the influence of the average social networker continued to grow. This led to his co-founding of the company alongside co-founder Waleed Alqahtani to enable a more inclusive and collective economy of influence.

Speaking on the close of the funding round, Faisal commented, “Our vision is to be the enabler of more meaningful and purposeful human connection, communication and collaboration, with more collective creation of wealth and culture. The world needs less individualistic and reactive social influencers and content creators, and more proactive impact amplifiers and inclusive community ambassadors – thus the name Amplifidor. We are at a moment in history between the no-more and not-yet, transitioning to a whole new reality – and we’re well positioned to shape the future and the narrative of our industry and adjacent markets, leveraging the significant shift in social and business norms.”

Co-founder Waleed Alqahtani is also excited about what this round of funding will mean for Amplifidor, stating: “This round will enable us to build the platform, the services and the ecosystem that will empower each social media user to grow their influence and become part of something bigger, and each organization to achieve sustainable growth with the support of their extended networks, regardless of their size, budget and objectives.”

The founder also notes the impact that this round will have on continued team growth – stating, “We’ve got great leadership in place and a full plan to scale with a new round of partnerships and hiring starting today. We really want everyone to be part of the Amplifidor movement and ecosystem, with so many collaborations, partnerships and incubation programs to be announced soon, to co-shape and co-own the future of influence. We believe that everyone can positively influence and be influenced, given the empowering tools, opportunities and platform.”

A private alpha test of the platform is already well underway, and excited users won’t have to wait long to finally install Amplifidor on their iOS and Android devices – the web app and public beta are planned to launch early this summer. The company encourages anyone interested in staying updated on development progress and beta announcements to sign up at www.amplifidor.com

GaN and SiC Technologies on Spotlight at PowerUP Asia Conference

The power electronics landscape is changing. Wide-bandgap (WBG) devices, including gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC), are gaining traction in replacing silicon devices, which are reaching their theoretical limits in performance, in applications including power modules and power inverters, motor drives, and chargers and adapters, to name a few.

According to Yole Developpement, the power GaN market will be worth $2 billion in 2027, with consumer applications, including power supplies and Class D audio amplifiers, representing about 48% of the total GaN industry.

In particular, the consumer power supply market for GaN is forecast to be worth over $915.6 million by 2027, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 52% between 2021 and 2027.

Inaugural PowerUP Asia Conference Highlights Latest Innovations in Asia’s Power Electronics Industry

The growing electric vehicle (EV) industry, increasing calls for renewable energy adoption, the automation trends in the industrial sector, and the rising demand for consumer electronics, are fueling the growth of the power electronics industry as manufacturers set their sights on power efficiency, carbon reduction, and ‘greener’ energy.

According to research firm Global Market Insights (GMI), the worldwide power electronics market reached over $22 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5% to reach more than $40 billion in 2032.

The Asia Pacific (APAC) region accounted for more than half of the power electronics market, recording a total market share of 55% in 2022, according to GMI, mainly driven by the increasing penetration of EVs. On top of this, the expansion of the IT sector, the growing number of Internet users, and the continuous development and rollout of 5G networks are propelling the demand for data centers in the region, which in turn is driving the demand for more power-efficient devices with higher power densities and more and more compact packages. All these are expected to transform the APAC region into a major hub for power electronics manufacturing.

To put the spotlight on the key players and the latest technologies and trends in the power electronics industry in Asia, AspenCore, the publisher of EETimes Asia, EETimes India, and EDN Asia, will hold the inaugural PowerUP Asia conference and virtual exhibition on May 24-26, 2023.

CleverTap launches Scribe, an OpenAI integrated content creation assistant

CleverTap, the World’s #1 retention cloud, today announced the integration of OpenAI with the CleverTap platform and launched its AI-generated content creator Scribe. The AI content feature can generate campaign creatives, analyze emotions, and rewrite them keeping in mind a specific emotion that resonates with the brands’ users. The feature will be rolled out to customers in April.

Scribe can interpret the emotion of messages and suggest the best alternative that users are more likely to engage with. Growth marketers can now auto-generate emotionally relevant copies and expedite content development by using just a few keywords on Scribe. The technology enables brands to automatically determine the tone of their messages. Marketers can leverage user engagement data based on emotion analysis to develop hyper-personalized content that is consistent with the brand, and also resonates with the user. Scribe is currently available to CleverTap Enterprise Customers on an invite basis.

Based on studies showing how much more value an emotionally connected customer adds, CleverTap has identified five fundamental emotions in MarTech. Namely, fear of missing out (FOMO), anticipation, trust, joy, and surprise — that are integral parameters in the digital world. Scribe has the capacity to produce and analyze content taking these factors into account. For digital-native businesses aiming to boost conversions with the aim of emotionally intelligent content, this will be a game-changer — driving increased visits, swipes, and spending.

Although marketers can personalize the way their customers connect with a brand, they will be able to go a step further with Scribe and customize the emotion of the messages marketers send out. Consider the following two examples of messages that have the same meaning but vastly different emotion scores – ultimately appealing to different audiences.

1. 50% off on shoes! Offer ends tonight!

2. Hurray! You have won 50% off on shoes. Coupon is valid today.

“Studies show that marketers only have 2 seconds to capture users’ attention in the digital realm. This gives marketers a very brief window to engage their users by tapping into the right emotions and AI enables brands to build these customized campaigns. These advancements in AI will open up the next frontier for marketers and bring back the ‘tech’ in MarTech.” said Jacob Joseph, Vice President Data Science, CleverTap, “We’re excited to launch Scribe – our very own OpenAI powered AI content creator to help our customers generate personalized, emotionally relevant messaging to stay connected with users and strengthen digital relationships.”

NOTES TO EDITORS

Indonesia is the largest economy in Southeast Asia, and its digital economy has been growing rapidly, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25% between 2015 and 2019, according to a research report by Google, Temasek, and Bain & Company. This growth has been driven by factors such as a large and young population, rising middle class, increasing smartphone penetration, and government support for the digital economy.
Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba has invested in Indonesian e-commerce platform Tokopedia, while Tencent has invested in ride-hailing company Gojek and digital payments platform OVO. Other Chinese companies, such as Huawei and ZTE, have also been investing in Indonesia’s telecommunications infrastructure.
The Chinese government actively promotes cooperation with Indonesia in the digital economy, through initiatives such as the China-Indonesia Industrial Park.

CleverTap Gaming Unveiled at GDC 2023

CleverTap, the all-in-one customer engagement platform, today at Game Developers Conference 2023 unveiled CleverTap Gaming – soon to go live in the summer of 2023. Through full player management, the latest offering will help boost revenue from LiveOps, Lifecycle Marketing, and Remote Configuration by 3x with personalization across the entire player journey. The platform is powered by TesseractDB™, CleverTap’s proprietary data engine, which is built for real time triggering & segmentation with high performance, low latency, and massive economies of scale.

CleverTap Gaming brings holistic and sophisticated multi-channel campaigns inside and outside the in-game experience. With a simplified UI, it reduces the dependence on technical teams and increases operational efficiency. By leveraging CleverTap’s proprietary TesseractDB™, it offers rich granularity with unlimited data points and no restrictions on lookback period. Previously, the lack of these features could have been a limiting factor for game studios trying to maximize retention and lifetime value, but CleverTap Gaming unlocks these use cases enabling game studios to scale their personalization efforts to new heights. Also, given its versatility, CleverTap Gaming offers a vast array of benefits within various functions in typical game studios:

1. LiveOps: With over 2000 unique player attributes (10x more than industry average), LiveOps Managers can improve the relevance of their offers with much more granular insights into user behavior and preferences.

2. Marketing: Consumers have vastly different preferences and a single journey does not fit each and every one of them. As such, conditional logic, advanced branching, and unified composition flow across all channels can help marketers plan campaigns with contingencies in mind. The advanced segmentation feature can also help marketers create better targeted campaigns from the outset.

3. Development: The ability to integrate with existing backend solutions lowers the barrier to transition for gaming studios with other solutions. Native Unity SDK means the platform can enhance developer productivity and shorten release cycles considerably.

“Modern gaming is evolving. They are no longer static endpoints – and with features like LiveOps and Remote Configuration, developers are empowered to make changes in real time without the constraints of approvals and a relaunch.” said Lawrence Hsieh, Principal Product Manager at MobilityWare. “CleverTap Gaming gives us an all-in-one cost effective solution that ensures consistency and efficiency while not only developing, but also promoting an update.”

“With over 2.6 billion mobile game players globally, it is only a matter of time before the growth trajectory flattens out and retention becomes a bigger area of focus. We hope that CleverTap Gaming can accompany those studios looking to stay ahead of the curve by maximizing their pre-existing user base via personalized and relevant messaging.” said Sunil Thomas, Co-founder and Executive Chairman at CleverTap. “When we acquired Leanplum last year, we looked to strengthen our footprint within various verticals and geographies. CleverTap Gaming is another step in this direction, and we are confident that it will further accelerate our growth journey.”
