HarmonyOS is driving the intelligent upgrade of hardware manufacturers, and attracting more traffic to intelligent devices other than mobile phones

Huawei recently held its TEDxHouHai event Driven by Pressure. Dr. Wang Chenglu, Huawei Consumer BG Software Engineering Dept President and AI and All-scenario Intelligence Business Unit Director delivered his speech themed Connecting to a Simpler Life

During this speech, he pointed out that the mobile Internet industry, which is centered on smart phones, has entered a transitional period. He also discussed how the rapid development of IoT will present a historical opportunity for industry transformation. In addition, Dr. Wang called for collaboration between upstream and downstream players in order to build a prosperous new ecosystem and embrace the mobile Internet era together.

Technology changes lives and nurtures dreams

"Technology has the power to change the world. When I was little, my dream was to be able to watch movies at home, and this is now possible everywhere. The rapid development of the mobile Internet has given rise to cashless payments, online shopping, and ride-hailing, all of which have profoundly changed our lives," said Dr. Wang.

"But it is clear that the mobile Internet industry, which is centered on mobile phones, is under pressure." Dr. Wang went on to say, "Global smart phone shipments started to decline in 2018, and saw a year-on-year decrease of about 6% in 2020. In addition, the average time that consumers spend on their mobile phones each day has remained at between four and five hours since 2018, indicating that the industry has reached a critical juncture and must be transformed."

"What are the development opportunities for the next era? Our pursuit of technological innovation never ends. With users possessing more and more intelligent devices, we want to allow these devices to collaborate with each other more efficiently instead of running in isolation, just as humans can communicate with each other. The goal is to make ubiquitous connectivity a reality and transform multiple intelligent devices into ONE smart assistant."

"For example, after a smart watch detects that a user has fallen asleep, the lights in the room will automatically turn off and the air conditioner will automatically adjust the temperature to create a more comfortable sleeping environment. The experience will be just like having a dedicated helper at home. Exercise equipment connected to a wearable can serve as your personal trainer, providing scientific exercise tips and comprehensive data analyses in real time."

“However, as different devices run on different operating systems, it is difficult to connect them, let alone achieve intelligence. To realize a connected lifestyle, devices must communicate in one common language."

HarmonyOS lets devices communicate in one language

As a next-gen OS, HarmonyOS enables various intelligent devices to connect and collaborate in one language. HarmonyOS will allow more devices to connect and collaborate with each other than ever before, delivering a seamless, user-friendly experience across all devices

HarmonyOS is also driving the intelligent upgrade of hardware manufacturers, and attracting more traffic to intelligent devices other than mobile phones. These actions are driving the intelligent and digital transformation of industries.

Dr. Wang said that Huawei aims to have HarmonyOS run on 300 million devices this year, and looks forward to working with industry partners to create a robust ecosystem around HarmonyOS. This will help more people realize their dreams through technology and bring consumers a simpler and better life.

Cebu Pacific continues to speed up its digital transformation

In the past year, Cebu Pacific has further improved its self-service options, now allowing everyJuan to not only choose their preferred flexibility options easily through https://bit.ly/CEBmanageflight, but even to correct and update information as needed, manage group bookings online, and receive notifications via email or SMS, among others. As I have managed to book my flight and paying on it via my laptop or smartphone. 

As the Philippines' leading carrier, Cebu Pacific (PSE: CEB), continues to speed up its digital transformation in line with its commitment to keep improving its overall customer experience. With all the great strides the airline has taken in online booking, check-in, manage booking, and Charlie the chatbot, it will discontinue its Philippine hotline numbers by May 01, 2021. 

 

CEB began ramping-up its customer-first initiatives through digital innovation in 2017 when it was among the first airlines in Asia to invest in an integrated facility and technology for social intelligence and customer engagement. This head start has equipped the carrier to adjust quickly to address everyJuan’s needs amid COVID, mainly through its social media channels manned by the CEB Customer Care Agents.  

 

In the first quarter of 2021, the airline noted a total of 87% of its passengers maximize its website to book flights directly in the platform. Along with this, 67% of CEB passengers conveniently managed their bookings online, specifically during flight disruptions.  

Cebu Pacific continues to develop its digital services such as online booking, check-in, manage booking, and Charlie the chatbot, while its Philippine hotline numbers will be discontinued effective May 1, 2021.

 

 

In 2018, CEB’s very own Charlie the chatbot was introduced in order to enable passengers to receive real-time answers to common queries and transactions such as flight schedule and status, check-in process, itinerary and boarding pass retrieval, and the like; or lead them to the right steps to address their concerns. Since then, Charlie has been continuously improved and is now able to respond to more queries, without having to talk to an agent.  

 

“We are glad to have started our digital transformation journey even before the pandemic, because we have come to rely on it in this new normal environment. We continue to prioritize the safety and convenience of our passengers, that is why we have accelerated our digital efforts to support contactless and self-service processes,” said Candice Iyog, CEB Vice President for Marketing and Customer Experience.  

 

In the past year, the carrier has further improved its self-service options, now allowing everyJuan to not only choose their preferred flexibility options easily through https://bit.ly/CEBmanageflight, but even to correct and update information as needed, manage group bookings online, and receive notifications via email or SMS, among others. The carrier also recently waived change fees permanently, enabling passengers to rebook as many times as they need. 

 

“Rest assured Charlie, along with our Customer Care team, are online 24/7 to assist everyJuan. We continue to enhance existing processes as we remain committed to empowering customers and ensuring access to the information they need anytime, anywhere, without having to call the hotline or go to a ticketing office,” added Iyog. 

 

Passengers can simply message Charlie via the Cebu Pacific website or the official CEB Facebook page. Its official Twitter page also remains active during this time.

The latest vivo Y20s delivers top-notch gaming features enhancing player performance

If you think that you're getting addicted to your games on your phone and afraid that would affect your health. Some people would probably said yes. 

It is a common misconception that mobile games are bad for one’s health. With the explosion of gaming during quarantine, many mobile users have experienced its benefits, starting with treating it as a fun distraction from all the pandemic stress.  

There are many discovered health benefits of playing mobile games including helping people overcome anxiety and an improved mental memory. With proper self-regulation and a powerful gaming smartphone like the vivo Y20s [G], with its maximized speed and long-lasting battery, online games can help players conquer real-life challenges. 

Here, we highlight how mobile games may actually be good for players. 

 

Gives that sense of being ‘in control’ to combat anxiety 

In a moment when people have less control on the outcome of events, mobile gamers feel empowered by dominating a challenge that’s literally in the palm of their hands. 

 

In a study published on the US National Library of Medicine, researchers observed games minimize exhaustion caused by stresses in the real world by giving players an environment where they have more control of things. In fact, gamification is an increasingly used technique to ensure the effectiveness of wellness apps used to fight anxiety and depression. 

  

Mobile games boost brain power 

Granting you’ve chosen the right games, they actually help in keeping your brain engaged by improving spatial awareness and in boosting memory. 

 

In particular, playing games is a good exercise to make the human brain remember things better. A study by neurobiologists at the University of California- Irvine (UCI) found 3D video games boost the formation of memories. 

 

Global Positioning System or GPS-centered mobile games, on the other hand, are effective in improving spatial awareness. Knowing your surroundings would be enhanced further by using smartphones that have accurate positioning service, like the vivo Y20s [G] that has an excellent positioning system through the MediaTek Helio G80 octa-core processor. 

 

Improves problem-solving skills 

As life in the time of the pandemic becomes more complex, it would be good to get a fun problem-solving coach. With the richness of the challenges in games, problem-solving skills are harnessed with the desire to win. Chilean health researchers concluded in a studythat since most games are episodic, they teach human brains to not stop until the challenge is completed or the problem solved. 

 

Makes people more social by bringing them together 

Most mobile games help users build a social community. They’re played together and simultaneously by gamers from different parts of the world which is an effective way to shake-off isolation loneliness. 

 

For some people, communicating with others can be a challenge. Increased social interaction through games that involve multiple players can help them overcome those fears or awkwardness. 

 

It would then be a bonus to have a faster system as you make connections with other gamers. vivo Y20s [G]’s HyperEngine Game Technology speeds up game load times and takes care of latency issues for those extended social play times. 

 

As most of the country continues to stay home, it should be a comforting realization that mobile games do not only ease boredom. It also gives players several health benefits, if playing games is properly managed in terms of time spent and frequency.

Saridon provides better pain relief and works in as fast as 15 minutes vs Paracetamol

As of this writing, I already got my first dose of Sinovac vaccine. I have been waiting for it since March, this year.  It was a sigh of relief getting myself protected. I  have never been calmer. Ive been having my anxiety attack since last year. That's why getting a vaccine is in my top of priorities and stacking up on analgesic and cough medicines too. 

 

To say that the past year has been difficult for Filipinos and the rest of the world would be a huge understatement. In the Philippines, the COVID-19 pandemic has crippled the economy and left many Filipinos jobless and struggling to get back on their feet. With our frontliners and essential personnel putting their lives on the line daily, the struggle to make ends meet has been a daunting one.

Needless to say, these trying times have tested the resolve of Filipinos to weather any storm and face whatever trials come their way. Even as they have made efforts to achieve a semblance of normalcy, it has been anything but easy. The long hours of physically tiring activities to work and cope with financial concerns have led some citizens to suffer from headaches and other illnesses also brought on by stress and worrying about the coronavirus. 

To deal with unexpected headaches, you need something you can trust. Try Paracetamol + Propyphenazone + Caffeine (Saridon Triple Action). Its caffeine content, when combined with other analgesics like Paracetamol and Propyphenazone, makes it work in as fast as 15 minutes and provide better pain relief vs. 500mg plain Paracetamol.

Paracetamol + Propyphenazone + Caffeine (Saridon Triple Action) associate marketing manager Toby Manlapat shares, “This pandemic has been a challenge to all of us who need to relieve headaches fast in order to get back to one’s normal disposition.” 

Paracetamol + Propyphenazone + Caffeine (Saridon Triple Action) is manufactured by Bayer, a trusted name in pharmaceuticals and consumer health for over 150 years. Paracetamol + Propyphenazone + Caffeine is the generic name of Saridon Triple Action. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor. Available in all leading drugstores nationwide and on major online retailers. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor.

ASC Ref. No. B045P040721SS

What is Saridon? (Ano ang Saridon?)

“Saridon is an analgesic or pain killer indicated for

1. Relief of mild to severe headaches,

2. Relief of pains such as headache, toothache, menstrual discomfort, post-

operative and rheumatic pain

3. Relief of pain and fever associated with colds and flu.”

“Ang Saridon ay isang pain killer:

1. Para guminhawa ang sakit ng ulo.

2. Lunas sa sakit ng ulo, sakit ng ngipin, menstrual cramps, sakit pagkatapos

maoperahan, at rayuma,

3. Para guminhawa agad ang sakit ng katawan at lagnat mula sa sipon at

trangkaso.”

Paracetamol/ Propyphenazone/Caffeine is the generic name of Saridon Triple Action. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor.

LG Philippines’ Managing Director Sungjae Kim was elated about the grand launch. “We are excited with the opening of the Philippines’ first ever Smart Laundry Lounge. We envision the concept to be an attractive one for budding businessmen, and for consumers as well. We want people to be able to experience our smart solutions both in and outside their homes”.
