A Xiaomi hair straightener power bank is coming
I need this is in my life
Xiaomi is known for a lot of things: smartphones, TVs, laptops, and even scooters. But, their newest venture is one that will get all the ladies excited.
The brand just announced a new crowdfunding venture on crowdfunding platform YouPin and it’s a product that I, myself, am willing to back.
This is a wireless hair straightener that doubles as a power bank. Manufactured by Xiaomi partner Ningbo Yue Li Electric Co., Ltd., the portable gadget is a girl-on-the-go’s dream come true.
The device has a battery capacity of 2500mAh, which should be enough to do a whole head of hair. It also doubles as a smartphone power bank! The thing has two heat options: low at 160 degrees Celsius and high at 200 degrees; plus it has a smart power-off setting that automatically turns it off after 15 minutes, when not in use.
Like most Xiaomi products, it’s also priced really well. It retails for only CNY 99 or US$ 15. It starts shipping on April 5.

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.

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

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.

How the HUAWEI Active Rings run inspired my next streak
One active morning turned into a streak I wanted to keep!
There are days when running feels like a routine and there are mornings when it feels like a gift.
The HUAWEI Active Rings Fun Run landed perfectly on one of those good mornings. I woke up before the sun, optimistically laced my shoes, and took my place at the SM Mall of Asia Complex, where a thousand runners gathered with the same intention.
Everyone wanted to move with purpose and enjoy a moment that centered on fitness and a little glow from our smartwatches.
Finding my rhythm with my Active Rings
HUAWEI partnered with RUNRIO and a full roster of lifestyle staples like GCash, Shopee, Nature’s Spring, and URC. It created a space that felt alive even before anyone started running.
There were giant inflatables, interactive photo walls, and booths with snacks and hydration that framed the Race Village.
When the run began, the energy pushed me forward. The seaside breeze reminded me why I loved running outside. HUAWEI designed this event for their community of users and I felt that intention with every step.
It felt easy to check my stats and stay on pace because the watch tracked everything that mattered without distracting me.
I was inspired when seasoned runners passed me by, whereas some of them would later claim the top spots. The runners around me boosted me with energy that I wanted to match. They were competitive in a way that felt inspiring.
The little moments that made the morning sweeter
After crossing the finish line, I wandered around the Race Village again. I watched runners take photos with their medals and chat with friends they made during the route.
The GCash Watch Pay booth became unexpectedly helpful for a lot of participants. It let everyone bind their GCash account to their HUAWEI smartwatch.
It made sense for runners who preferred to go cashless and travel light. Shopee was also present and reminded everyone how modern life blends with fitness.
Every corner of the event touched a part of our daily routines. It showed how technology can help simplify healthy habits.
Keeping the streak alive with Light Up Your Active Rings
The fun run wrapped up the physical celebration but HUAWEI kept the momentum alive through the Light Up Your Active Rings Online Challenge. It runs from November 8 to 30 inside the HUAWEI Health App.
Participants only need to burn 1500 kcal within the challenge period to unlock the exclusive Manila Medal, a new badge inside the app that feels like a digital pat on the back.
Sharing the medal on TikTok with the hashtags #LightUpYourActiveRingsPH and #EnjoyYourMoment also enters participants into a chance to win a HUAWEI Watch GT 6.
HUAWEI will announce the winner on December 15. It feels like an invitation to stay active long after the race banners are packed away.
The challenge is simple and the message is clear: movement matters even when it feels small. Running, walking, cycling, or making your day a little more intentional can change the way you show up for yourself.
A community that runs with you
That morning reminded me that fitness does not need to feel lonely. The run united beginners, athletes, and curious participants who wanted to experience something new.
It gave us a morning filled with movement and reminded us that wearable technology can help us stay accountable in a way that feels supportive.
HUAWEI continues to build a fitness community that encourages healthier habits and celebrates every active streak. The Active Rings Fun Run made that mission feel real on the ground. Meanwhile, the Light Up Your Active Rings challenge brings it online for anyone who wants to keep going.
I left the MOA Complex with tired legs and a full heart. My Active Rings glowed with pride and I promised myself that this would not be the last time I ran for the kind of joy that morning gave me.
