KC Concepcion and Erwan Heussaff for the ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED and ASUS ZenBook Duo 14

Thursday, March 25, 2021

Two Zenbooks got launched a few days ago from our friends over at ASUS. It was nice to see people actually using it for the right reasons, first was Erwan Heussaff who did so many things with the ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 and the other was gorgeous KC Concepcion for the ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED.

Erwan is a content creator, restaurateur and an entrepreneur. His day consists of so many things to work on and if he's going to have a buddy to be with him to finish things, the ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 was a good companion. It's got an 11th Gen Intel Core Processor, an NVIDIA MX450 and an Intel Iris X GPU, all of which accommodated his multi tasking lifestyle. The ASUS ZenBook Duo 14 has a 16 GB RAM which can put to work a second monitor (for dual touchscreen) so you can view and work on different projects at the same time. Aside from that, it's got a 1 TB PCIe 3.0 SSD so opening different programs from photo to video editing is a cinch. This time, the ScreenPad plus also adjusts with the Ergolift so you can see both displays clearly (7 degrees) and maintain good temperature for the whole laptop.



Aside from being an actress, KC Concepcion has several businesses on her belt including designing jewelry. In it, she has to be very meticulous and detailed oriented hence the need for accurate displays like the one on the ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED. The ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED has an FHD OLED Nanoedge display so she sees more of the things she's working on.  It also has an 11th Gen Intel Core Processor and an Intel Iris X GPU. The stunning display is an OLED FHD with 100% DCI-P3 Color Gamut so you only see detailed and true-to-life colors which KC appreciates when she needs to check gems. She feels this would also be good for those who are into editing content, design, production or any color critical work. The ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED also has 70% less harmful blue light so it would be less harmful for the eyes. People spend hours working on laptops these days and it could really hurt sometimes, blue light actually does that. ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED reproduces true blacks, so you get crisp looking images even on darkest settings, though you can still see the details because of the high contrast it gives. This is also very thin and light but didn't have to lessen ports so if you need to have it connected to other screens, projectors or devices, the ASUS ZenBook 13 OLED can still do that. Battery life is also phenomenal, it can last up to 13 hours without the need of plugging it to a wall.

All Day Fun with the vivo Y31


It's already summer and you can feel the heat in some of the days, but what keeps you busy at home? More often than not, your mobile phone is becoming your best friend as your activities are built around it. Smartphones like the vivo Y31 provide activities this 2021 that can do more fun and entertainment even on lockdown.

On Photography

You can do so much with a 48MP main camera. Aside from that, it also has a 2MP bokeh and macro lens which can do those creamy blurry backgrounds and super small photos clearly. You can have friends or family as subjects and do portraits. If they're not around, you can shoot your old toys or even those ants in the window sill. Photography can be done with almost anything!



Watch K Drama

Binge watching is something that you can do with your family or your special someone. K Drama these days talk about romance, coming of age films, action, even fantasy. There's a ton of them that have entertained millions of people, and that should include you. The vivo Y31 can handle hours of streaming, plus the FHD+ Halo FullView Display give really nice visuals. You could fall in love with the different characters, wish to come to South Korea for the food, the sights, and the soju. Maybe, just maybe, find love in the process. 


Level up your Gaming

It's pretty hard to win games these days. You need something that handles the connection, the graphics because the last thing you need to worry about is what you see on screen. Well, not to worry if you have the vivo Y31 because its got Multi-Turbo 4.0 which can get all of that taken cared of. All you need to do now is just concentrate on the game and start beating the enemies. It should make you level up your gaming and just be wary of the things that matter, not the phone.


There are tons of things you can do with a smartphone and you should always make it your companion so you can be productive everyday. Performance wise, it should do more right from the start because as soon as it opens those apps, it should be able to handle it without any problems and the vivo Y31 does that. If you want to know more about this specific model, go get information at http://www.vivoglobal.ph/phone/vivo-Y31 or vivo Philippines on FB, IG and Twitter. They've got you covered!

Comfy Mid Rise Condo Living at BRIA Homes Astra Vertical Villages

Wednesday, March 24, 2021

 

It's super nice to see condominiums these days have reflected what Filipinos need in properties. They want it to be practical, convenient but still have style. Condominium units are homes too and if it comes affordable, it shouldn't be shortchanged with amenities that can be enjoyed by the whole family.

From restaurants, banks, schools, places of work, everything should be accessible for them to have a comfortable condo lifestyle. It's why BRIA Homes has introduced the Astra Vertical Villages. They've constantly been championing a cause of making their properties very affordable and maintain quality. They were not joking about that because as it stands,  you can get these for Php 10,000 a month. Aside from that, you also get access to a communal clubhouse, function halls, swimming pools, spacious play areas and a gym facility.







BRIA Homes President Red Rosales says "The Astra Vertical Villages are not like those drab and dreary residential towers in the big cities. Unit owners here can enjoy cozy and intimate co-living in elegant walk-up buildings because here,  comfort comes with financial practicality. Our units are all at excellent budget-friendly prices.”

There will be several Astra Vertical Villages that will be up in different cities including General Trias in Cavite, also in the city of Calamba in Laguna, also one in Cagayan de Oro in Misamis Oriental. They have made these all strategically located in business districts and lifestyle centers so owners can live comfortably. For the General Trias and Astra Calamba property, it will have 11 buildings, 880 units and 237 parking lots in a two hectare land. It will be all four-story mid-rises as it is meant to be for low density living. Their 24-square-meter units are designed to house a bedroom, dining and kitchen area, living area and toilet and bath. Astra Calamba will also have their own wet and dry market, a food park, whilst Astra General Trias will have provisions for a school. All their properties also come with round the clock CCTV coverage, guarded gates and reception areas. You may check out tours at their official site https://www.bria.com.ph/ or their FB page as it's all there!

It would be so exciting to live in communities like these!

Self Expression and Self Care with the Vivo Y31

Tuesday, March 23, 2021


 

Still locked down, with different terms used, but still the same potato. I'm sure just like me, you are stuck at home trying to make ends meet, trying to make sense of it all. These days, if you don't have anything to keep you sane, it'll be doubly hard to survive. These days, people look for outlets for self expression, the arts, to also preserve memories so you can reminisce on it later on. It's pretty tough not to have that with mental health, so we have to do what we can to take our mind off things, or maybe a little entertainment. 

Photography, or making video content these days have now become easier with the eve of smartphones that can take even better shots sometimes than professional cameras. It's more powerful, you can even use the same phone to edit it and share the experience with family and friends at a flick of a button. The peeps from vivo didn't only donate stuff and PPE for front liners during this pandemic, they realized the importance of elevating the smartphone experience and did several campaigns over the years that would do just that for Filipinos and the rest of the world.

For the vivo v19 phones they did the Ignite Your Night campaign to show users how they can take advantage of the night photography and gaming capabilities of their phones. Aside from that, they also did one for the v20 series called Be The Focus to showcase the selfie camera capabilities of the phone. This 2021 they are getting you involved in "ALL DAY FUN" with the Y31 which is a budget phone but last so long because of its 5000mAh battery. Photos, videos, gaming, it can do all that without costing too much plus you get a chance to pursue enjoyable hobbies, that would make you happy, which is way better for your mind too.

Who would have known doing several campaigns would result to that right? It's a good thing. If you want to know more about the vivo Y31, you may check out information on https://www.facebook.com/vivo.philippines or their website https://www.vivoglobal.ph/. If you want to get one, they have their official stores on Shopee and Lazada, you'll get good deals there too!
