Miley Cyrus Joins Converse and Celebrates Pride Month!

She's definitely a pop and country icon and who better to celebrate pride month than with Miley Cyrus. 

I love shoes so much I have about 140 pairs at home and I don't know how I've been keeping them on the shelves and boxes for so long. Most of my shoes comprise of brogues and if not, it's my everyday staple of Converse Chucks. 

Miley isn't just loving thesr pairs but more of endorsing these to get the point across and celebrate with the LGBT community, equality and youth. In her words, she's saying #YesToAll as she believes that everyone deserves an opportunity. The funky colors definitely scream no race, color, ethnicity or gender should be shunned anywhere and anytime. I love her even more just by getting involved in this cause.

Visit converse.com/YESTOALL for more details. Hopefully it would hit the shelves real soon!

Young Celebs Confess Love for Vivo V5s

Everybody wants to look good on photos right? If you're on vacation, at home, or just hanging out with your best buddies, you can't just put out shots on social media and stay mediocre for the world to see. You have to make an effort to at least get yourself seen in a good light, exposing your best assets and look your best in every shot. This has been where the newest flagship phone of Vivo comes in, the Vivo V5s. In their social network channels, they proudly show their ware and stated why they love the latest Vivo model and how they intend to use it. To let you know why they fell in love with the phone too.

McCoy De Leon wants all his friends by his side. He's always in gigs with the hashtags, out with his friends and even his fans. However, he doesn't want them to be left behind if they are doing a group photo as he feels that won't be fun. That's exactly why he loves taking group shots via the Panorama Panning effects of the Vivo V5s, even if he's with a big group, it won't be a problem at all because you can just swivel away and take the shot!

Popular fashion blogger Verniece Enciso on the other hand praises the phone because she doesn't even have to carry as selfie stick anymore, which is bulky and troublesome to set up. Now all she needs to do is gather her family and friends to make more memories. It's also great for the events she goes to because the phone can take great group shots anytime, anywhere!

Tony Labrusca of BoybandPH fame loves the Vivo V5s with it's 20 Megapixel front camera. It's crystal clear, no need to sharpen photos with other apps as it is very detailed already. Selfies are really good.

Andrea Brillantes lauds the device's updated Selfie Softlight. It's going to make her more dreamy, not harsh like a deer in headlights. Even if she's about to sleep, she can still take shots in dimly lit places, which she does quite often on her Instagram account. Yes, she takes selfies even at pitch dark nights!

Sue Ramirez who just ended her I Can Do That stint praises the Vivo V5s Beauty Mode. She was happy that even the small imperfections got eliminated by the phone's feature. She's not afraid to take shots even if she's not with make up. Just wake up, washed her face in the morning and woke up late, still looking fresh because of the Vivo V5s Beauty Mode 6.0, how can anyone not like her?

If you want to know more about the phone they love, just like their page Facebook.com/vivophil or follow their Twitter and IG account @vivophil for more stuff on Vivo's line!

Twitter and Smart to Provide Daily Entertainment Updates ThroughTwitter Lite

If you haven't been on Twitter, you must be living under a rock. The bird has always been part of the lives of Filipinos, and has been constantly breaking records in the microblogging platform for years now. We're one of the busiest in the social media channel and they are bringing more content to Filipinos even those in outlying islands and rural areas by introducing Twitter Lite. Smart will be offering a custom Twitter timeline via t.co/SmartEntertainment and Twitter data pack through SMS for Smart Subscribers. They will also be putting Twitter Lite on the Opera Browser.

Twitter Lite is different from the usual Twitter app as it provides a faster more accessible web experience. You can get push notifications and offline support without an account from the App Store or Google Play. This is called Progressive Web App technology and can save you 70% data and takes about 1MB of space on your mobile device. Crazy right?

Present during the occasion were Tina Pang, Head of Sales for Twitter Southeast Asia and Harvey Libarnes the VP of Figital Products and Partnerships for Smart Communications. Ms. Pang has mentioned how much our lives in the Philippines has been part of the Twitter universe and how we are growing with them since then. They are commited with the Philippines for real time updates so tvey are introducing Twitter Lite. It is available in 42 languages including Tagalog, we are Twitter partners in the Philippines.

To use Twitter Lite, Mr. Dwi from Twitter APAC asked us to log on to http://mobile.twitter.com. Log on and do the normal sign in. On settings, you can enable DATA SAVER and view your timeline even if you are offline. You can also go to t.co/SmartEntertainment. People with low end phones and low storage capabilities can now use this channel to get the latest updates and notifications so you could see what is happening now in the world. They launched this 2 months ago in India, Indonesia and now in the Philippines. Smart has been their strategy partners for a few years now and this is the way to give them more access to the Philippines. You can also get notifications, and do polls just like what the normal app would do. You can view content only if you click on them and not forcibly when you see it on your timeline. You can also block and report people, easier than ever.

Harvey Libarnes from Smart shares how there are about 60Million people for about 4 hours a day. We like to share a lot of things, remember #ALDubEBforLOVE? That was specially mentioned as a record breaking tweet. 

Smart All Out 30 and TNT Twitter 10 was designed for Filipinos and encourage them to be on Twitter. You can access Twitter Lite Ph with this and Smart is excited to be a partner of Twitter. You are basically just saving a bookmark on your phone and can use it with lighter, not with photos per ce but you can access it if you enable it one by one and will be charged with data accordingly. So you only pay if you click on those photos and videos. Let's celebrate by tweeting today! :)

OPPO Releases F3 Black Edition and A57

First looks won't be first looks without me getting my hand on it. I know fanatics of the Oppo F3 would be pleased about this landing in the Philippines. This is the OPPO F3 Black Edition. It's a special version of the successful flagship phone for this brand presented in a different aesthetic. The Black Edition still rocks the same 16MP dual selfie camera capable of 120 degree wide angle selfie shots and a beautification mode that boasts a more natural looking output. Other than that, you will drool upon seeing this black matte body and shiny front glass. It would fit people that are stylish and those who prefer a more monochrome palette.

We also saw the OPPO A57. It comes in Gold and Black. It's about 5.5 inches and 16MP front cam and carries two 4G sim cards. If you are looking for an Oppo phone with a lower price point and a more responsive android phone, this is it. See the phone in all it's glory! Thanks to Jam for lending me this unit!

The OPPO F3 Black Edition costs Php 15,990 (on sale) and the OPPO A57 costs Php 11,990. It will be available in OPPO stores and authorized retailers nationwide!

Congratulations OPPO Philippines! I hope this sells well.
