Meet the New ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 Series

Saturday, May 08, 2021

Another day to introduce some of the best laptops from our friends at ASUS and yes, they've got pretty good releases this month particularly the new ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 TP470 and the ASUS VivoBook Flip TM420. It's part of the ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 Series which are awesome companions for creatives like us who's looking for a workhorse.

The ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 TP470 has an 360 degree Ergolift hinge which can pretty much do different modes. You can opt for the regular laptop mode, tent mode (for presentations), stand mode or even in a tablet mode if you're in a mood to create. This also makes it not susceptible to heat problems and you can use it in the most comfy ways if you prefer it be used in those modes I mentioned earlier. It's also got an 11th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-1165G7 processor with Intel Iris Xe Max so those graphics heavy applications and editing would be a cinch to do. Of course with this one, you always have portability so you can take it around your room, a coffee shop (if pandemic permits), your office or home. It's got usual ports, plus a Thunderbolt one for ease of transfer of files when you need it most. You can also use the ASUS Pen with it and treat it like a tablet, imagine what you can do in sales pitches and work if you can make changes and point out certain things right there. If that doesn't make it fun, how about a free lifetime license of Microsoft Office Home & Student 2019? I'm enjoying my own VivoBook with that and if you get this one, it'll be so much fun if you didn't have to worry about that right?


As for the ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 TM420, it also has almost the same features outside but this one has a beast of an AMD Ryzen™ 5 5500U mobile processor and integrated Radeon™ Graphics for you to do the hard things life brings. It's also ultra compact at 1.5kg which you can lug around your home office donning a aluminum alloy chassis in Bespoke Black finish so you look good too and not worry about the heat.


These guys are going to also make you smile with the price as it costs Php 69,995 for the ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 TP470 i7 version while the i5 version costs Php 49,995. The ASUS VivoBook Flip 14 TM420 on the other hand carries an AMD Ryzen R5-5500U mobile processor at Php 42,995. This would be good for home school, office work and total creatives. It'll be fun they say, because as an owner of one, I assure you, they're absolutely right!

Stylish and Practical Features in the New vivo Y12s

People have been purchasing phones these days and look for a lot of features. Aside from a good camera, storage, battery and looks, it has to make sense. If you haven't seen it, the new vivo Y12s includes the Side-Mounted Finger Unlock feature that makes total sense. I've had a few Android phones that got the finger print unlock option on the back which in a design sense, totally isn't practical as you would have to have your whole hand involved in the process because you wouldn't reach that far finger wise without specifically doing it. The designers at vivo probably knew how awkward that feels especially for people who lock and unlock their phones quite regularly because they need to update social media, take lots of selfies or just about any work or play related stuff they need to do.

The Side-Mounted Finger Unlock on the new vivo Y12s makes sense (and does it at 0.23 seconds) and it comes in colors that anyone would love like the Phantom Black and Glacier Blue. It kinda glistens right, not too super wet looking and fits comfortably in the hand when carrying it. This also has a powerful battery at 5000mAh which could last you the whole day of regular use. You can also do games faster as its got Multi-Turbo 3.0 in their proprietary FunTouch OS 11 made in Android 10. Imagine those lags gone when you're playing for hours during multiplayer or first person shooter mobile games.

What's even more sweet is that they're selling this for only Php 6,499 in authorized stores and online. They even have bundles sold with memory cards as bundles which takes it a step further. So if you're looking for one, Lazada and Shopee has them now. Visit https://www.vivoglobal.ph/phone/vivo-Y12s/ if you want to know more about the phone. If you want to shop, go get it here! https://shp.ee/ec9qh7nhttps://shp.ee/ec9qh7nhttps://shp.ee/ec9qh7n

Now don't tell me I didn't tell you about it!

Technology on Bluetooth speakers these days are just jaw dropping! Just saw the new Soundcore Mini 3 at the official Soundcore.ph Shopee store and thought I should get one of these soon.

It also last long because as single charge can get you 15 hours of unadulterated music which is perfect for parties all in the comforts of your pocket. With the PartyCast Technology, you can get friends to carry their own Anker Soundcore Mini 3 Bluetooth Speaker so they too can be the life of the party!

ALEX GONZAGA On Being Shopee Princess



They dub her the new Shopee princess, and the face of Shopee's Payday Sale. She's Alex Gonzaga.

Her new TVC, and digital pronouncements must have been seen already by so many people and this time we got the chance to ask her questions during a small digital meet and greet.

She says "I'm very happy to be part of the Shopee family. This brand that Filipinos trust, even I shop there every night. I'm happy and honored, my family and friends want vouchers, but I told them to wait for akinse. I guess I really loved the dance sequences I had to do during the commercial. Honestly, I couldn't believe I'd be in a roster of ambassadors that Shopee has. The campaign also is so good, I love how it connects to Filipinos and tell them the time to shop, when sweldo time happens."

"Well, these days I buy if there are deals. My husband and I now buy for two people, he asks for masks and send me the link, I am the one who checks out. I recently bought a portable sauna, nothing has changed really, it's just an extra person sending me links. Admittedly, I am a shopaholic, I always had hand me downs and cry in the mall if I don't get new things. When I started earning, I now get the chance to buy stuff but my Mom still questions me as she manages my finances. Now, I don't have to go to malls like when I was in college. Next week, I'll be doing a locked in shooting for Tin Can and Ten17 for a new movie, and last year, I did one with my sister and Fifth Solomon (for MMFF last year) and of course Lunch Out Loud wherein Shopee is part of. On my vlogs, I'll be doing collaborations and cook with other vloggers so watch out for that. I love locked in tapings, and they're doing things in Lipa so I get to see my husband everyday still. He's been so supportive, every time I have things arranged in my movie."

"My budol find is the portable sauna, he didn't want me to have a steamer so he suggested to have this instead and buy me 10 if I needed it. Aside from that, I have 10 little black dresses which I buy from there. The tongue prank I did, I got that from the Shopee app. I just search and it appears! I'd buy stuff for Xevi, I buy things like the Titanic like boat which my Dad paid for. He spoils him in secret."

"Happy Cup at home is also in Shopee so if you're buying stuff, we're also there."

Congratulations Alex and Shopee! Hope we see you in future akinse promos!
