The new Dyson Corrale is your portable, no-damage straightener

Is this what we’ve all been waiting for?

Today, Dyson has launched their third hair styling tool. Another innovative gadget that claims to change the way we ladies style our hair. The Dyson Corrale is a hair straightener that can be used cordless or while attached to a power outlet. While cordless hair tools have been around for a while, what got us excited for the Corrale is the function where it gets its name from. It’s the first hair straightener to have flexing heating plates that – as James Dyson himself puts it – ”will ‘corral’ your hair” as you use it on your tresses.

Flexing plates

No more of those strands slipping out of your hair straightener’s grip. The flexing plates will move along with the contours of your hair section. Aside from that, Dyson adds that the revolutionary plates are not just for the aesthetic and holding hair in. “It can apply even tension and low heat. Whereas flat plates, apply uneven tension and use too much heat.”

The plates are made of manganese-copper alloy with 15 micro joints that help enclose the hair and making sure each strand gets the same amount of heat and tension.

Less heat, same styling power

The worst thing you can do is use way too much heat on your hair. The Dyson Corrale uses less heat which cuts the possible damage you get from styling in half. This, without affecting the styling result.

Straightened hair is set to remain sleek and frizz-free with hardly any of the breakage we get from the usual straighteners. However, you still get the freedom of choosing between three temperature settings at 165 °C, 185 °C and 210 °C. An integrated sensor system regulates the temperature of the heating plates up to 100 times per second to ensure that the device doesn’t exceed your temperature of choice.

Portable styling

With four lithium-ion batteries, the Dyson Corral can work for up to 30 minutes of wireless styling. Enough for taking it for quick touch-ups behind an Uber when the weather doesn’t want to cooperate. At home, it can be used with a cord. You can also drop it back on the dock in between sectioning your hair and straightening to keep charging as you style. You get a full charge in 70 minutes.

It even has flight mode that will allow you to carry it in your hand luggage. No one needs to know how unpleasant that 13-hour flight was.

The Corrale is now available via the Dyson online shop and retails for EUR499. It comes in two colors – Nickel/Fuschia and Purple/Black.

Infinix is in with YUNA in the scene

Infinix is entering a new era — and the brand is bringing one of K-Pop’s most sought-after stars along the ride.

A first for Infinix

In line with the launch of the latest NOTE 60 series, Infinix has also named YUNA of ITZY as its very first Global Brand Ambassador. The company calls this a bold step forward for both innovation and style.

For the record, this is the first time Infinix has tapped a global ambassador — and the choice makes sense. YUNA is known for her confidence, vibrant energy, and unapologetic self-expression. These qualities align closely with Infinix’s “Joy Tech, Beyond Limits” philosophy.

In a statement, YUNA shared her excitement about the partnership. She said she’s looking forward to connecting with fans in a new way and creating meaningful stories together with the brand.

For Infinix, this collaboration is more than just a celebrity endorsement. It signals a shift in how the company wants to position itself globally — not just as a smartphone maker, but as a lifestyle tech brand for expressive, tech-savvy youth.

The more, the merrier

The partnership goes along the debut of the NOTE 60 Series, further fueling Infinix’s move toward a more premium smartphone experience.

Like YUNA, the NOTE 60 line also brings notable names in the table:

Powered by Snapdragon from Qualcomm
Design collaboration with Pininfarina
Audio tuned with JBL

It’s a clear attempt that Infinix wanted to elevate both performance and design by blending in flagship-level specs, more refined aesthetics, and immersive sound altogether.

Infinix says this launch also marks its expansion into more premium international markets.

With YUNA as the face of the brand, the company hopes to strengthen its appeal among younger users who want both powerful hardware and a device that matches their personality.

Rather than focusing purely on specs, Infinix is leaning into storytelling — highlighting how technology can spark creativity, joy, and individuality.

With the NOTE 60 Series and YUNA front and center, Infinix appears ready to redefine its brand identity on a global scale.

Hitting the ‘DEADLINE’

ICYMI, BLACKPINK (or K-Pop’s biggest female quartet composed of Jennie, Lisa, Rosé, and Jisoo) started their highly-anticipated ‘DEADLINE’ World Tour just last year.

With Razer’s signature dark black styling paired with BLACKPINK’s bold and iconic pink scheme, this collaboration felt like the perfect match.

Now, if you’re the type of BLINK who still has a severe sepanx (like yours truly), all these limited BLACKPINK-themed gaming gear by Razer might just be the cure.

That said, here are all the BLACKPINK Edition gaming accessories you should expect from the Singaporean-American gaming giant.

Ornata V3 Tenkeyless – BLACKPINK Edition

A low-profile RGB keyboard with clicky Mecha-Membrane switches.

DeathAdder Essential – BLACKPINK Edition

Gaming mouse with ergonic comfort and precision alongside mechanical switches and programmable buttons.

Gigantus V2 – Medium – BLACKPINK Edition

Razer’s smooth and durable mouse mat with that BLACKPINK flair

Enki X – BLACKPINK Edition

Badly-needed gaming chair for all-day comfort combined with BLACKPINK’s aesthetics — made for your marathon gaming sessions.

Here are the SRP of the special Razer x BLACKPINK Edition gaming essentials:

Ornata V3 Tenkeyless – BLACKPINK Edition = US$ 119.99
DeathAdder Essential – BLACKPINK Edition = US$ 49.99
Gigantus V2 – Medium – BLACKPINK Edition = US$ 29.99

These will all be released worldwide (excluding Canada and Japan) by the 2nd quarter of 2026.

Currently, Razer has set-up a pop-up store in Hong Kong. BLINKs in the area can experience all the special gaming gear with dedicated photo zones in the scene.

This popped right in time as BLACKPINK will hold the Hong Kong stop of their ‘DEADLINE’ tour for three straight days — from January 24 (Saturday) until January 26, 2026 (Monday).

Moreover, these might just be the perfect complement to the quatro’s upcoming ‘DEADLINE’ EP by February 27, 2026.

Might as well, an advanced 10th year anniversary gift this August 2026.
