The Launch of the 50th allphones Philippines Store!

I've been talking about them lately because they present technology and marketing a sub group of phones that can rival most packages and bundles by host companies. TAO Corporation, allphones Australia and Globe Telecom just recently launched their 50th store at the Robinsons Galleria in Ortigas, Pasig City. 

It was fun and the dancers just moved to Pharell's Happy song all afternoon. It was every one else's LSS even after the event ended. We got to ask the executives from allphones Australia, Globe and allphones Philippines about this partnership and they all have good things to say about it. 

With Globe's hold on the Philippine Post Paid market, they are only bound to exceed sales in this venue because of better offers and great deals in every allphones shop. They will get each store to locally be able to stress which ones are more effectively selling or not because they want to hear from their number one fans... the consumers. They are so proud about the technology they invested in making all the registration and requirement procedures because they are now paperless and use tablets in all allphone stores nationwide!

They have plans as affordable as 299 up until the highend ones that can cater a bigger market. Aside from that, they will also cater to contract periods that last from 6 to 24 months in the stores says Peter Bithos, Chief Operating Advisor of Globe. allphones Australia also commended TAO's success in expanding rapidly in major cities and can't wait how allphones Philippines would continue to grow come last quarter of this year.

They were able to accommodate a lot of people during their opening and didn't get piled on the counter. The prices on those handsets were really attractive and the choices were great. The have tablets, phablets, affordable phones and the newest ones. They also have accessories like power bank units and Belkin phone covers for those who want to jazz up their phones.

Congratulations allphones Philippines on your 50th store! Hope I can get back there and get a new plan soon!

Bench Body Whitening Lotion Made With Nanobright Technology

When we got an invite by Bench a few days ago, I was a little clueless about what the buzz was all about. A new product seems to be in the works and they were announcing it Friday. Bench/ is home for me so I visited the place and had myself settled in a dreamy white room filled with media, Bench celebrities and executives. It was indeed a wonderful white night!

Bench/ Body then came out with these three new whitening products developed with nano technology to give you the skin you deserve. Hydra White is both a whitening and hydrating lotion that's got milk, b vitamins and a 48 hour moisture lock, all of which promises us to whiten skin in 7 days. It also repairs rough and dry skin so if you are of this skin type, be glad that Sam Rodriguez (daughter of 80's actor Miguel Rodriguez) is here to represent you. She says that Bench/ Body Hydra White is not sticky and she loves the fact that he hydration lasts 48 hours and maintains that supple soft skin that everybody wants.    

Sam is into production (even at a very young age) so if you often see some music festivals outside of Manila, she's probably part of that. A budding entrepreneur and marketing diva she says it's important in the business to actually present yourself well and if that takes to apply something like Bench/ Body Whitening lotion to hide those small imperfections, she's all for it! She's so thankful that Mr. Ben Chan has given her the opportunity to be with the Bench Family. She's bound to have more appearances soon and it's so nice she's starting with a world class brand!

Another lady appeared and I think I've seen her a couple times already. She's Dominique Cojuangco (daughter of Gretchen Barretto and Tony Boy Cojuangco) and she's apparently back in the Philippines for a few weeks. She already left Saturday to continue studies in London. She's been living quite independently and is enjoying being a normal person taking trips on tubes and seeing museums in that city. She says she enjoys life there but terribly misses Manila which is still home. Proud Mum, Aunt and cousins were in the audience and made sure they rooted for her. This is after all the first time she's endorsing a product and trusts Bench for all the right reasons. She says she likes Bench/ Body Supra White because it's the most intense whitening lotion in the line. It's got nano encapsulated glutathione and SPF10 that also promises whiter skin in 7 days and protection from the sun. It's something that has been researched well and you've probably seen people who have tried Glutathione in this country. It did wonders right? but this one would only be in a very complete form, affordable/competitive price. She also says she loves the sun protection because it's the cheapest way you can get away from wrinkles and botox when age starts to show. 

Natur White endorser Addie Manzano (daughter of Edu Manzano) unfortunately wasn't there for the launch. The Bench/ Body Whitening Lotion Natur White varian has got a light and fresh feel to it that is best for sensitive skin. It's based from Papaya and natural extracts and promises the same whitening effect in 7 days plus it evens out the skin tone.

7 days? Yes you can. There's no reason why you shouldn't have fairer skin this summer now that Bench/ Body Whitening Lotion has arrived. If you want to see more, check out this video they just released and see how it feels to have whiter, sexier skin! Nanobright technology makes the particles so small that it easily gets absorbed by the skin... faster... whiter!

Samsung Philippines Launches Galaxy S5, Gear 2 Neo and Gear Fit

We were there a few days ago to witness the launch of Samsung's newest phone the Samsung Galaxy S5, plus their new Samsung Gear 2 Neo and Samsung Gear Fit. It was one of the most awaited phones in the market because of the promised features it'll bring to consumers including this phone to be waterproof! No joke!

It's got one of the fastest Auto Focus features in its camera so taking a shot would be a cinch! You can also get vivid HDR quality images if you want better captures. It's Selective Focus can easily contain your subject and blur the background, one of which is seen in today's DSLR's. 

The thing even measures your heart rate with it's built in sensor. Health buff? The phone is perfect for you! Just place your finger on the back and it'll do exactly that.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 also connects to the new Samsung Gear 2 Neo and Samsung Gear Fit so if you run, bike and tumble... you've got the perfect reason to buy these gadgets.

One of the craziest things I've ever seen is the "Download Booster" feature. It boasts of connecting both to LTE and WIFI TOGETHER! That'll surely make your movies and music leeching much faster! This is also Wireless AC that uses MIMO technology.

They demonstrated the phones capability to be dust and water resistant by putting the phone underwater and on sand... I was amazed they even moved the touch screen while doing that! Amazing!

Watched how siblings Phil and James Younghusband were testing out the Fingerprint Security Features of the phone. It'll open it up in seconds without the fear of losing your precious phone or data. Phil also won a phone that evening so he's one of the first who got one in the Philippines. The phone also has Ultra Power Saving Mode that said can get it to last up to 12.5 days. I have yet to test that out because I don't own one. :P

It's got a 5.1” Full HD Super AMOLED Display so watching HD video or just plain images would be a treat!

 The party was also grand because DJ Tommy T aka Tom Taus spinned for us that night. There was free flowing Hennessy too!

Now why wouldn't I get one of these phones no? It's price is also a little high (Smart pegged it at Php 39,990.00) but if you are after the newest one that can weather the elements and get you the best technology in phones, make it a Samsung Galaxy S5!

It was a night of great bodies, great assets both inside and out. We were all there as we celebrated with Century Tuna and the champions of their own journeys, a proper send off party for the finalists of Century Tuna Superbods 2014 was on call. They came out from back stage flaunting their bodies; all of which they have worked so hard to achieve these past few months.

Surprisingly, they are from different regions in the Philippines. Century Tuna Executives said they are so glad at the turnout because they wanted the whole country to be represented well in this search. 

I specifically like this lady (on the left) who's journey of being over 200+ pounds before and now to this shape where she can wear anything with confidence.
