Curated Cars: The Dhaka Car Show that finally got it right

May 1 and 2 gave us something rare. A proper show. Curated Cars wasn’t just another excuse to hang out and say, “Bro, my car faster.” This was for the real enthusiasts—the ones who actually know what a Jaguar S-Type is and don’t think a McLaren is just a footballer. So what did they do differently?

The Flying Slipper: A tribute to moms, discipline, and the gentle art of terror

This Mother’s Day, celebrate the iconic South Asian flip-flop — more than footwear, it was a symbol of maternal authority, discipline, and reflex training, shaping generations with precision throws, psychological warfare, and unforgettable love wrapped in chappal justice.

Let’s be real—buying a phone under BDT 25,000 these days feels like trying to get decent biryani for under 100 bucks. Expectations are high, budgets are tight, and compromises are inevitable. Enter the Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 4G, a phone that doesn’t promise the world—but gives you a pretty good piece of it anyway.

With the Asus Vivobook S 15 in hand—one of the first Copilot+ PCs powered by this much-hyped chip—it’s time to see if the revolution lives up to the anticipation.

How to smell amazing without suffocating the room

Fragrance should be subtle and intimate, not overpowering. Apply perfume to pulse points, avoid rubbing it in, and be mindful of seasonal changes. Winter’s cooler temperatures make scents last longer, but be cautious of external odours.

How to become rich writing How-To articles

Just day before yesterday, the capitalised “How” was asked by my amazed and astounded wife. Turns out I had accidentally locked her inside as I went out to deal with a mess my 1.5-year-old daughter made trying to feed the dog.

Made in Bangladesh Mustang

Quite a big deal when we find out yet another popular diecast model made in Bangladesh. French company Solido—famous for budget models—has crafted this beautiful ’67 GT500 on Bangladeshi soil, which then gets flown back to their land and comes back to Bangladesh after paying hefty taxes. That’s how we end up having it in our hands.

How we survive Dhaka without really thinking about it (as told by bideshis)

Every day, us Dhaka residents (and from every other Bangladeshi city) do not realise how close we come to death, mutilation and further death. Only when you hang out with a bideshi do you take in the magnitude of the possibility that the end is so near. We are

Jabra Elite 25E

Is it what it is? Got the new Jabra 25e as the latest running mate for my nightly jogs. It’s a neckband style earphone with a thick, weighted curved centre section that rests on your, well, neck. No surprise there.

Vivo V15: Long term test of the notchless display phone

Vivo is starting to carve out a niche for itself as a flashy, affordable, colourful character in the world of black, glass slabs. The V15 has stand out features of a full notch-free display and a pop-up camera. It comes in a sparkling red gradient with microdots resembling stars. But can it be the star in this fiercely competitive market dominated by the likes of Xiaomi and Samsung’s A series?

Motorola Android One A few months later

It looks very 2019 what with the 2D glass front and back, slim aluminium frame and that all important notch helping fit more screen into a small body. Those rounded iPhone XR type dimensions and the small size are fantastic making it a quick grab in and out of tight pockets. The dual cameras are positioned vertically on one corner without much of an outward protrusion. Motorola was once king of design innovation with the RAZR and the Aura. This one while smart just seems to follow the trend.
