ASUS Outs ZenFone 3 Deluxe

It's been a while since I've written something about ASUS, but this looks interesting enough.

They just released the ASUS ZenFone 3 Deluxe. It's one of the most promising phone brands already and we've seen how successful they've been with the release of the Zenfone 2 Laser and it's predecessors a few years back. When they released the ZenFone 3 series, they dubbed it worthy enough to put out a Deluxe version with the highest specifications they could put in on their newest flagship phone. Design wise, they've completely built it with an all aluminum alloy making it more premium looking and polished. The screen to body ratio is at 79% which I think is extremely sufficient enough for the quite small phone (although it comes in a 5.7 and 5.5 inch variant). One of the things they also added is the fingerprint sensor at the back, which could unlock the phone in a few milliseconds. They also utilize a Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 octa core processor and a desktop grade GPU, 6GB of RAM, 2x2 MIMO WiFi capability and a hefty 256GB storage. I personally haven't tested that yet but it looks like first owners have already expressed they're quite happy with their units.

The Zenfone 3 Deluxe also has a ginormous 23MP Sony Exmor RS Back Camera and an IMX318 image sensor, so for photography enthusiasts, they could satisfy you with the f 2.0 aperture if you want to work with that. It can also shoot 4K UHD video, so if you're worried you can't use that big storage you already have with the phone, you've got lots of videos to fill that up. I also saw their image stabilization technology called EIS during the show a couple of months back, it focuses quite fast without much effort. Shaky hands would be okay with it. Maybe I'd ask my friends if the photography performance would be at par, or exceedingly great because I've seen some pretty good ones already out there. 

It's won at the CES 2017 Innovation Awards, so that alone is impressive. It costs Php 34,995 for the ASUS ZenFone 3 Deluxe 5.7 variant while the ZenFone 3 Deluxe 5.5 size costs Php 22,995. It's available now at authorized dealers, their newly opened concept stores and online shops nationwide!

Might have to ask for a review unit soon as I have not personally tested this yet, but specs wise, it looks promising.

Oh and P.S. they've got a promo out for those who want to get these handsets. You're gonna get powered quite handy too with these ZenPower Ultra and Pro! So I think you may have to get one after you receive your Christmas bonuses.

TRINOMA Celebrates the Holidays with I GOT STUNG!

It's a fun afternoon at Trinoma and what a great way to start the holiday cheers but by a concert with the music of STING. An icon in the 80's he's proven how good music can take you anywhere, making him one of the most awarded songwriters and singer of all time. It's entitled "I GOT STUNG" and is composed of two acts, one of which is headed by STEPS DANCE PROJECT the events division of Steps Dance Studio. The company also benefits talented Filipino dancers, make them scholars no matter what economic background they come from.  Aside from patrons, we also saw street children in the audience, perhaps the production's way of getting them involved in the arts.

The musical director Mon Faustino and his band provided really good renditions of Sting's awesome music. We were hooked from the first song. With world class ballet and jazz dance performers, it was easy, smooth to note that Filipinos can do this in any stage. They also had guest performers from New York Jamal and Aubrey, teaching us a thing or two how it's done in other parts of the world, it was stunning! 

Towards the end of the show, Sam Milby sang a couple of songs, the one with the dancer from New York was Roxanne, super touching. SOS Children's Village and Pushcart Foundation I think will also be getting proceeds from the show. Truly noble deed starting the season of giving no?! Ahh I could see the ladies already swooning to Sam Milby's songs, he even went out and got personally romantic with them!

This is just the start, there are more things to look forward to at Ayala Malls, especially in TriNoMa. You're gonna #LovEmThisChristmas!

Beep beep! Beep Beep! My phone starts that way every morning telling my I'm already late for an event or I'm waking up so late from writing in the wee hours of the morning. I was wondering, or hoping, that the text would actually be from my ex (whom I saw in the MRT a few weeks ago I mean OMG btw looking so gorgeous!) but NO. It's just a text from SMART. Not that I'm wishing for it to be her all the time, because who doesn't want LOVE these days? Especially when each and every time you see that Facebook status or that Tweet or that Instagram post, there's always bound to be something about LOVE that they always have to talk about (Oh yes I've seen your HUGOT status!

Coco Martin for The Super Parental Guardians

It looks like Star Cinema is gearing for another blockbuster movie as they release ahead of Christmas this Coco Martin and Vice Ganda starrer called "The Super Parental Guardians". This movie was written by Danno Mariquit and Alpha Habon and Directed by Bb. Joyce Bernal. 

It's the love hate relationship of Arci and Paco, who were given the task of taking care of their bestfriend's children Megan and Ernie (played by Awra and Onyok) as her last dying wish. They become unsuspecting parents of the kids and it just becomes a riot. 

Here's a video clip of our interview with the good looking Coco Martin!
