The Importance of Battery Life: vivo Y31 Steps Up

We've been busy trying to find ends meet, keeping ourselves entertained at home streaming shows, kdramas, playing games, connecting with friends and family because we can't meet physically. This pandemic has brought upon tons of challenges and it is still true today. The last thing on our mind should be worrying about is how long our battery will last, which happens quite often in my other phones til today.

 Internet usage in the country surged from a median of 9 hours 45 minutes in 2020 to now to almost 11 hours in 2021. Filipinos have adapted well to find retail and work online hence the reality, will your phones even last that long? Likely not, and phone companies are hurrying to make sure the model and make of your current smartphones would be able to handle that much communication each day.

On the other hand, some companies like vivo knew how this should likely change things in 2021 and prioritized bigger battery capacity in their newer models like the Y20 which they did in August 2020, the Y30 in December of the same year and on February 20201, they got the new Y31 made with 5000 mAh batteries now.

It's a practical thing to do especially when school and work tasks require even longer hours online and without a phone that could last that long, it might affect what's essential these days aside from the regular entertainment you consume everyday from your smartphones. You use it to call, text, message people, even use it to wake you up at certain times of the day and never even look at clocks anymore because your phone almost has it all. I'm sure, your use doesn't end there because you also order food on several apps so you can save time, energy, and do without the chore of preparing food/groceries for your family. You would rather use it to bond, help others and make lives a little better for your friends/community that relies on that business too.

The vivo Y31 also has got an 18W fast charge function so you can juice it up quite fast than the usual, saving you precious time which you can spend on other important things. You then can use it for several hours after that and be more productive, do other things too that can earn you more online because it enables you to do so. Everyone needs extra these days.

 With a Y31, you can multi task and it can do a lot because of the Android 11 based FunTouch 11 OS that's in it. Very user friendly and powerful since it also has a Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 662 octa-core processor. If you would love a life like that, you may check out the device over at https://www.vivoglobal.ph/phone/vivo-Y31/ as all the information is there. You can also check the vivo Y31 on the vivo Philippines FB, IG and Twitter account because they're also there.

It is important to have long battery life, and I'm glad vivo stepped up the plate and did it.

Let's Say YES to Positive Beauty

It's kinda hard to understand that at this day and age, some companies are still not switching to sustainable packaging - which to me is as simple as a choice because there's a lot of options out there that are affordable, it's not always about costing. Aside from that, it boggles me how there's still Asian hate, racism, unbelievable standards in beauty. We are all beautiful, and Unilever Philippines is literally campaigning for "Positive Beauty" putting their words where their mouth is.

From hereon, Unilever Philippines is putting all their efforts in lowering their carbon footprint by starting with their products being packaged with less materials, more environmentally friendly way. Aside from that, they're holding a huge sale on popular shopping app SHOPEE at the Unilever Philippines official store. They're helping Shopee fund a non governmental organization called Mano Amano which caters educating and training individuals/entrepreneurs so they could change their lives by learning life skills. Proceeds of what you purchase from their store will go to this organization and help them get more people in the program. We also unboxed some items on video so go ahead and check out the video above. 

 

If you haven't downloaded the Shopee app, it's available at the Google Playstore and App Store. If you use POSITIVEBEAUTY on check out, you'll get additional 15% off your purchases. They're also selling some of it 70% off. Remember, it'll only be til the 19th so you've got a few days left! Go check out the flash deals too because some of the discounted products will also be listed there! You can help people just by purchasing :)

WOOLWORTHS Now in the Philippines

Having the healthy stuff and everyday treats has always been a battle in my grocery list and some of the best ones... I've had the opportunity to get courtesy of my cousins and friends who send it all the way from Australia. The largest grocery chain down under is WOOLWORTHS and they've grown significantly even more throughout the EU, South Africa and the United States. But now, we in the Philippines will get to enjoy the same products too as all the same things they have will be sold online and physical stores starting today.

This includes some of the top brands in Australia and their very own home grown ones which they've developed through the years. Now, the journey there (OZ) would probably cost a lot, but we're not gonna do that just to have their products. Special lanes and sections will now be available in branches of Shopwise, The Marketplace at Rustans and Robinsons Supermarket branches nationwide. It'll also be available online via the GoRobinsons App (which you can download on the App Store and Google Play) and existing delivery apps that cater to these grocery shops. 

Now those WOOLWORTHS products like pastas, fish and chicken spreads, grains, breakfast cereals, pancake shakers, wine and salad dressing are not just good, but really convenient. They're priced reasonably too, now think about the possibilities no? Oh and if you're in the mood to shop, they'll throw in a FREE foldable shopping basket for every 3K worth of products from WOOLWORTHS. Now go ahead and take your favorites from the shelves because they're here!

Don't say I didn't tell you huh! Can't wait to try Australia's best right here in the Philippines, see you at Woolies!. 

Send Help to PGH Today

I couldn't sleep last night as fire broke in the Philippine General Hospital in Manila. When the fire was put out, patients were out of the upper floors and some of the babies were temporarily sheltered in the hospital's chapel away from the smoke and debris that could put them in harms way. 

Ms Rina Navarro, the CEO of Unfiltered Skin Essentials and co-founders of I AM HOPE, an NGO, with Bea Alonzo and Ms. Vina Morales responded as they saw the pedia and new born sections have been greatly affected. They hurried onsite, brought diapers, milk, snacks, drinking water, juices and electric fans so they could help and sent it directly to PGH Pedia resident Dr. TJ Ablaza. Some of her friends are also chipping in and anonymously donating 20 more fans, 100 blankets, 50 more diapers and more boxes of potable water. 

If you would want to help, you can course it through I AM HOPE and their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/iamhopeph/ or through contact details here. The kids and patients of PGH need our help and they hope to see more people doing the same til they all get back on their feet and resume normal operations in the public hospital. Bless their hearts for doing this!
