The Good Performance and Looks of ZenFone Max Pro M2

It's time to consider solid phone performance and good looks, this is the new Zenfone Max Pro M2

Blogging everyday takes so much work and if you were in my shoes, I'm quite sure about 80% of you would quit doing this because of the sheer amount of articles you would need to dish out as soon as an event or launch happens. I am well equipped, with a huge DSLR and a powerful laptop computer but most often than not, it is a bit of a chore to actually carry it around the whole day when locations of events in Metro Manila change like shirts in a hot afternoon. 

A solution would be using a powerful phone that would be able to do the same things as my DSLR and host apps or software that I need for blogging. I currently use an iPhone but it just runs out of batteries too fast as it doesn't even last the whole day. I also use a different Android phone that takes wonderful photos but it just heats up too much when I'm editing videos or playing games every once in a while. It also runs out of batteries too so my solution is to carry a huge powerbank that weighs a ton (I might be exaggerating a little) but it won't work now that I have a back issue and my bag is pretty much always full. Carrying a phone that performs as needed, something that looks professional, something that makes you exude confidence, it's a job for the ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2. 

The ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 has 1.95 GHz Octacore processor and 4GB of RAM at Php 12,995, (also has an 6GB version at PHP 14,995) all of which can do tons of work, fast and efficiently. The 64 GB storage can last you hours worth of photos and videos, you can install apps without worrying too much about what's left because it is expandable. You can put additional SD cards and chill, runs on Android 8.1 Oreo and can last you for hours on because it's powered by a 5000 mAh battery. I have tethered this all day during my recent Singapore trip and it was unbeatable. 

Taking photos was a cinch, it's colorful, pretty easy with its own editing options or via other photo editing apps. It performs at par in low light conditions, the selfie function takes you to real good looking depths and doesn't look plasticky when internal beauty features are enabled. 

It also remains as one of the most affordable at PHP 14,995, which in any standard is good for a entry-mid-range phone out in the Philippine market. The Snapdragon 660, large ram and long battery life can last you a long time even if you're playing games all day. After all, that's much of what I use this for also, for War Robots, Ragnarok, Hello Hero, and a whole lot more. 

You better consider this when you're ready to play! It looks absolutely good too, perfectly fit for executives who still want to have fun and photography on the side. I know, I enjoyed it a lot!

Healthy Options' Christmas Traditions

Hey it's almost Christmas, and people have been looking for something they would be able to give their loved ones. I'm sure you always hear "It's the thought that counts" but what if I told you that you can let your care felt by giving them some products that would spell healthy on their plate? Would you think it's possible? Of course. That's where Healthy Options come in. You see, they're launching Christmas gift packages that includes different products that would include things for beauty, for snacking light, healthy drinks without the hassle of thinking and choosing. They call em Christmas Traditions and we've seen them first hand at the Healthy Options store in Glorietta 2.

Check out our small shopping adventure!

As you may have heard on the video, the Christmas Traditions packages are already available in Healthy Option branches. It's perfect for Executives, for families, for lovers and oh boy let's not forget those single friends too. They've designed things that are gluten free, those with vitamins (oh yes I know some people need it!), some that have alternative snacks on them like the veggie chips (which was so good by the way!) and the bubbly juice (yes they're not alcoholic!) they've got it all on these lovely baskets!

For those who would want to design their own packages, they have a certain amount of products you would need to actually get before they can do this for you. They can also deliver for FREE within Metro Manila but you need to make sure you reach that amount (I think it was 30K) before they can do it for you. Aside from that, you get to send your point across by giving this to your loved ones because you only want them to stay healthy.

Nokia Philippines Launches The New Nokia Lumia 925!

We were invited to a posh afternoon of all things Nokia last week at Salon De Ning in The Peninsula Manila. Manila's tech bloggers and media were excited because it's the launch of one of the most awesome handsets ever produced by the Finnish company called the Nokia Lumia 925.

Executives from Nokia Philippines, Microsoft Philippines and Smart Communications were there also to witness the unfolding of this newest piece of hardware from Nokia which boasts stern support for all 2G, 3G and 4G networks, 16 Million colors via its AMOLED capacitive touch screen and a tough Corning Gorilla Glass 2 exterior. It's only 4.9 ounces with dimensions set at 5.08 x 2.78 x 0.33 inches. It feels so comfortable in the hand when held up. It's got Wi-Fi support for standard 802.11 a/b/g/n networks so if you are on an access point that supports old networks, you can still connect with that (more like backward compatible).

The primary camera is 8 MP which also has the propreitary 3264 x 2448 pixel Carl Zeiss optics. The camera also has features like optical image stabilization, autofocus, dual-LED flash on the back and even has photo interface where you can edit the image onto different ones/modes not found in other brands. They painstakingly made sure they have the right kind of software to support their images which is a plus on my books. 

Nokia Lumia 925 also uses PureView technology which delivers outstanding photos in the goal of almost having it look life like. It's also got geo-tagging so you know where you took the photo and have that indicated on all apps that support it. A single touch on the screen takes the photos, it analyzes and shows you the best photo if taken on a series. It's also got 1080p HD video at 30fps and has video stabilization if your hands are too shaky.

It's a tad bigger than my iPhone5 and has got pre installed software from the Nokia Store which you can also mix and match according to your personality. The free apps are quite nice too and complements the handsets quite well. They have worked with these game and software developers closely so they can bring you only the best for your phones.

To test the photo capabilities of the Nokia Lumia 925, they got these two boxers cum models to do their thing. The handset can take series of shots and put them all into one photo, making you the master of your own images. +1 on that! It's images were quite good even on the very dark Salon De Ning but I haven't seen much noise on the output as we tested it out that afternoon. Game titles such as Temple Run, Toy Story Jigsaw Puzzle, Photo Funia Capsule and Amazing Alex are available so if you are into these games, go ahead and grab one of these Lumia handsets!

The handset will be available at SMART mid August so make sure you go to your nearest wireless center and ask about special plans and how to get it. It will also be released in the market around the same time so if you are looking for a smartphone with great specifications, features without breaking the bank, get the Nokia Lumia 925!
