Words from the Master Storyteller

“Steph and Francis’ love story stood out from the pack of most entries sent. It was a treat getting to know them over Japanese and discussing the approach of how to tell their story best via video.

It’s essential for us to really get into the meat of the narrative to pick out details and to focus on the essential, said Jason Magbanua.

To create an incredible love story, an incredible amount of research and work must be done. Steph and Francis were worlds apart in background, culture, personality and geography. They couldn’t be any more different. And there’s the rub - what makes them tick? what makes the relationship work?” Click play and find out:https://www.facebook.com/jasonmagbanuafilms/videos/10154156831380886/

One2Shop - Shop Online Like 1 2 3




Contrary to what you might have read or heard, the oldest profession in the world is none other than trading. And thanks to the Internet, its impact on our lives only gets bigger and bolder every year. There are a lot of e-commerce websites that now cater to the needs of online shoppers everywhere. Surprisingly, there are none that cater specifically to the tastes and wants of Filipinos.

Enter One2Shop, the newest e-commerce destination for Filipino online shoppers located all over the Philippines. Up until now, the bulk of the "online shopping malls" available in the country have been mostly foreign. But with One2Shop, these e-commerce websites will finally have the much-needed local touch that users will love.

According to a recent research conducted by Google, more than half of the population in the Asia Pacific region prefer to shop through mobile apps. Meanwhile, over 40% like to use their browser to visit their preferred e-commerce web sites. This is also very reflective of the recent Black Friday shopping spree where 40% of the purchases were all done online.

The opportunity to capture a meaningful portion of the market is definitely hard to pass on, especially since the coverage of shopping sites just keeps on growing.

One2Shop aims to grow right alongside the growing e-commerce market, harnessing the power of both the web and various social media channels to better engage its target audience.

One2Shop’s advantage over competing digital platforms is its use of the latest high-tech solutions available for e-commerce websites. Its back-end is built on top of Amazon Web Services, and it relies on various social media channels and advertising networks to deliver its content and offerings to its users.

One2Shop will first be available through its official web site, one2shop.com, and then through the One2Shop mobile app for Android.

Midea Indroduced a New Perspective for Laundry

Most Filipinos have gotten used to doing their laundry with a top load washing machine and rarely do they get a chance to try front load washing. While top load and front load washing machines do not have much of a difference in terms of performing well in doing the laundry, the difference rests on the added benefits that a front load washing machine may give to its consumers. It may cost a bit more than the conventional top load washing machines, but it makes up for it with the savings it gives on water and electricity.

Midea, the world’s largest manufacturer of consumer appliances, has a lineup of front load washing machines that Filipino families may enjoy having into their homes. These home friendly solutions offered by Midea are easy to use and consume just the right amount of water in every wash, rinse, and dry cycle, much like Midea’s Front Load Washer. It could have as much as 70% water savings on a complete cycle by using its Daily Wear setting. It only consumes 43L of water which is equivalent to Php 1. With the same setting, it only consumes 1278kWh of electrical consumption which is equivalent to just Php 2 and it ensures less fabric deterioration and damage.

The Front Load Washer could be paired with the Front Load Dryer and with its space saving feature, its surface can be used as a counter top. The dryer will come very convenient during rainy days because there is no need for sunshine and a clothesline to dry the clothes. It also makes it very friendly to those who are living in condominiums and ensures that clothes will always smell fresh. It could dry clothes in as fast as 40 minutes and consumers will only spend Php 10 in electrical consumption.

Midea’s iAdd Washing Machine would probably be the most user friendly front load washers in the lineup because of its top-of-the-line features that make doing laundry easier and worry-free. Its main feature is the iAdd Auto-Dosing Technology, the first of its kind here in the Philippines, which has an intelligent weighing system that regulates the amount of detergent and fabric softener depending on the weight of the laundry. This takes away the stress from monitoring whether there is too much or too little detergent and fabric softener while washing.

iAdd Washing Machine’s IntelliClean feature has 208 washing solutions for better cleaning, without having to worry about the setting of the cycle. Its Smart Save Inverter motor on the other hand reduces electrical consumption of up to 62% for a quick wash cycle. It also has an Auto Dryer Sensor that runs the ideal drying setting for the clothes, saving time, electricity, and saving clothes from over drying and shrinking.

With Midea’s lineup of Front Load Washers along with its features that are definitely friendly on  clothes, easy to use, and time and money-saving on every wash, Filipinos will not have to worry about their laundry and they will have fresh clothes to wear every time.

ASUS Flagship Smartphone ZenFone 3 Deluxe Now Available in the Philippines

ASUS today announced the launch of ZenFone 3 Deluxe, the distinguished flagship model of the new ZenFone 3 Series designed for users who demand a smartphone with the very best performance and features. The desirable ZenFone 3 Deluxe has the highest-specification components of the ZenFone 3 Series models and is the ultimate expression of ASUS smartphone design.

ZenFone 3 incorporates many world’s-first technical achievements and breakthroughs, the result of a determined effort to empower users with the very best in smartphone design and technology.

World’s first all-aluminum-alloy smartphone with invisible-antenna design

ZenFone 3 Deluxe features an incredibly slim and elegant all-metal unibody chassis, and is the world’s first metal-bodied smartphone with an invisible-antenna design for uncompromised signal quality. Our world-class engineers’ determination in pursuit of perfection and technical prowess enabled them to ascend a new pinnacle with ZenFone 3 Deluxe, integrating the antennas in such a way as to dispense with the ugly bands and gaps that blemish other metal-bodied smartphones.

Other distinguished design details include its hyperfine sandblasted surface — polished to a beautifully smooth anodized finish that makes ZenFone 3 Deluxe incredibly tactile — and brilliant metallic diamond-cut edges that add to its stylish and desirable appearance. The barely-there 1.3mm bezel around the display gives ZenFone 3 Deluxe a huge 79% screen-to-body ratio, so users get the smallest body size possible for the smartphone’s generous 5.7-inch display size.

ZenFone 3 Deluxe is also the first ASUS smartphone to feature a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor — conveniently located below the camera lens on the phone’s rear panel — for rapid unlocking and authentication.

ZenFone 3 Deluxe is available in two sophisticated colors that enhance its desirability and elite status: Sand Gold and Glacier Silver.

ZenFone 3 Deluxe features the world’s first all-aluminum-alloy unibody with an invisible antenna design

World’s first smartphone with Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 processor

ZenFone 3 Deluxe is the world's first smartphone powered by the brand-new Qualcomm^® Snapdragon^™ 821 octa-core processor. With a clock speed of 2.4GHz, this top-of-the-line processor — built on Qualcomm’s Kryo architecture — is the world’s most powerful 14nm smartphone processor. Combined with a desktop-grade Adreno^™ 530 graphics processing unit (GPU), 6GB of RAM, an X12 Category 13 4G LTE modem with three-carrier aggregation (3CA) support, 2x2 MIMO Wi-Fi antennas, and 256GB of storage, ZenFone 3 Deluxe delivers exceptional performance and outstanding connectivity.

World’s first smartphone with 6GB RAM and 256GB UFS 2.0 storage

ZenFone 3 Deluxe features 6GB of RAM — more than in any smartphone currently available — giving it the power to load apps rapidly, run even the most demanding games smoothly, and keep multiple apps open simultaneously. This large amount of RAM is accompanied by 256GB of high-speed UFS 2.0 storage. UFS2.0 is about three times faster than the eMMC 5.1 memory found in most other smartphones. With 256GB of memory, the ZenFone 3 Deluxe has the highest amount of storage of any smartphone, matching the amount found in many laptops — so users can store vast amounts of high-quality content, for example around 30 uncompressed Full HD movies or 100,000 23MP photos. Users can instantly expand the storage space in ZenFone 3 Deluxe even further by inserting a memory card into the hybrid micro SD/SIM card slot when a second SIM card is not in use.

World's first smartphone with PixelMaster 3.0 camera featuring 23MP Sony IMX318 sensor

ZenFone 3 Deluxe raises the bar for mobile photography with its ASUS PixelMaster 3.0 camera, the world's first smartphone camera to feature the 23MP Sony Exmor RS^™ IMX318 image sensor. It has a bright f/2.0 wide-aperture lens, combined with four-axis optical image stabilization (OIS) that eliminates shakes caused by hand movements and enables the use of shutter speeds that are up to four stops slower than traditional smartphone cameras.

This superb combination of premium components enables ZenFone 3 Deluxe to capture incredible high-resolution, blur-free, and low-noise photos in almost any lighting conditions. The camera’s high resolution enables users to zoom in on subjects clearly and capture detailed photos that can be printed at large sizes or cropped in post processing with minimal loss of detail compared to smartphones with lower resolutions. The camera can also capture stunningly-detailed 4K UHD (3840 by 2160) resolution videos, with three-axis electronic image stabilization (EIS) technology to ensure the results are rock-steady and shake-free.

ZenFone 3 Deluxe also features the new and exclusive ASUS TriTech auto-focus system that automatically selects the best focusing method: second-generation laser, phase detection, or continuous contrast-detection autofocus for near-instant 0.03-second focusing and subject tracking. The laser auto-focus system focuses on subjects at a distance of up to 1.5 meters — which is about three times the distance of conventional laser auto-focus systems.

Other advanced PixelMaster 3.0 technology features include:

l   Color-correction sensor — A sensor detects the lighting in the scene and automatically adjusts colors in the photo to look natural and accurate.

l   Super Resolution mode — This mode creates ultra-high resolution, 92MP photos by capturing and combining four native 23MP photos to create a single image with exceptional clarity, greater detail, and less noise.

l   Low Light mode — Increases the light sensitivity of the image sensor by up to 400% by combining four neighboring pixels on the sensor into a single one with greater light sensitivity, allowing photos to be shot in low-light conditions without the harsh, overpowering light of a flash.

l   Comprehensive preset modes — A collection of preset modes enables optimized shooting of almost any subject in any environment. Highlights include special-effects filters, Miniature mode to mimic tilt-shift photography to make subjects appear like miniature toy figures, automated unwanted element removal, the automated Beautification mode for capturing attractive portraits, and an automated time-lapse mode.

l   Professional manual creative controls — These settings give keen photographers advanced control of ZenFone 3 Deluxe’s camera, giving them the ability to change settings like white balance, exposure value (EV), ISO sensitivity, shutter speed, and focus. This makes it a powerful tool for learning the fundamental skills of photography and allows users to shoot scenes with many different creative interpretations.

Super-bright Super AMOLED display

ZenFone 3 Deluxe features a 5.7-inch, Full HD (1920 by 1080) display and is the only model in the ZenFone 3 Series to employ Super AMOLED technology. This stunning display has a 3,000,000:1 contrast ratio, and a color gamut that’s greater than 100% of the NTSC color space, so everything ZenFone 3 Deluxe displays looks as vibrant as real life — and with ASUS Tru2Life technology optimizing every pixel for maximum intensity. The display’s barely-there 1.3mm bezel gives a huge screen-to-body ratio of 79%, for a vast view in a smaller space. And with always-on technology, the screen keeps vital information in constant view for whenever the user needs it — without waking up the whole display. The screen is covered by super-tough Corning^® Gorilla^® Glass 4, which offers twice the drop resistance and over twice the overall strength of the last generation of Gorilla Glass.

Unrivaled smartphone audio with SonicMaster 3.0

Matching ZenFone 3 Deluxe’s impressive display is its class-leading audio capability. It features a five-magnet speaker driven with a metal voice coil and an expansive sound chamber, driven by an NXP smart amplifier that delivers powerful, emotional audio and also protects the speaker from damage. As ZenFone 3 Deluxe is certified for High-Res Audio (HRA), users can plug in their favorite HRA-compatible headphones or earbuds and experience true HRA quality anywhere they go with ZenFone 3 Deluxe’s studio-grade 24-bit/192kHz playback — that’s 4X better than CD-quality sound.

Zenfone 3 Deluxe: An Incredibly Award Winning Smartphone

ASUS ZenFone 3 is the flagship model of the ZenFone 3 Series, and the world’s first full-metal smartphone with invisible antenna. Inside, it has the world’s first Qualcomm^® Snapdragon^™ 821 Series processor, Adreno^™ 530 GPU, and integrated X12 LTE modem, as well as up to 6GB RAM to deliver the best performance and fast connectivity for demanding apps, games, and media.

Further to this, the ZenFone 3 Deluxe, offers an advanced camera technology that takes mobile photography to the next level – making the device won in the Wireless Handsets category of the prestigious CES^® 2017 Innovation Awards.

Winning this award underscores the commitment of ASUS to design and build innovative products that deliver an overall incredible consumer experience.
