Among the tech giant’s new innovations are the HUAWEI Mate X6, HUAWEI nova 13 Series, HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4, HUAWEI FreeClip Rose Gold, and HUAWEI MatePad 11.52025. This comprehensive suite of products represents a new era of flagship innovation, showcasing HUAWEI’s commitment to continuous advancement and elevating consumer engagement.

 

HUAWEI Mate X6: Stunning Global Debut

 

Headlining the HUAWEI Flagship Product Launch event is the HUAWEI Mate X6, the  next generation of the HUAWEI Mate Series foldables. The HUAWEI Mate X6 is an all-round, advanced smartphone that brings significant upgrades to display, camera, durability, user experience, and more.

 

HUAWEI Mate X6‘s Space-Age Orbit design around the camera layout gets inspiration from planetary orbits, symbolizing the infinite possibility of the future. The exclusive Nebula Gray edition is named after its nebula texture, which is smooth to the touch, crafted with Micro-Nano 3D Topography using an innovative material called Vegan Fiber. Aside from Nebula Gray, the HUAWEI Mate X6 will also be available in Nebula Red and Black.

 

HUAWEI Mate X6 makes a huge leap in network, cooling, and durability with its innovative distributed architecture.

 

The incredible camera system features a new Ultra-Chroma Camera with 1.50 million spectral channels, a 50MP Ultra Aperture Camera that supports a 10-size physical aperture, a 40MP ultra wide-angle camera, and a 48MP telephoto micro camera. This advanced camera technology enables a breakthrough in photography for foldable devices.

 

HUAWEI Mate X6 introduces the Live Multi-task feature, a new way to multi-task efficiently. With this feature, users can run three applications simultaneously using the unfolded screen in an expanded view. 

 

HUAWEI nova 13 Series: Super Selfie, Super Pattern

 

In 2025, HUAWEI is reintroducing its nova Series with the HUAWEI nova 13 and HUAWEI nova 13 Pro. The HUAWEI nova 13 Series comes with the new Dynamic Plaid Texture Design, multi-focal portrait capabilities, and AI-driven innovations, bringing in a fresh wave of trends while embodying the creative spirit of the younger generation.

 

Inspired by high-fashion elements, HUAWEI nova 13 Series debuts the striking Loden Green colorway with the innovative Dynamic Plaid Texture Design. The HUAWEI nova 13 Series will also be available in white and black for a minimalist and sophisticated feel.

 

Staying true to being fashion-forward, the HUAWEI nova 13 Series brings plaid patterns from clothes and accessories into the world of handheld devices by crafting a design that plays on light and shadow. With the nano-level precision in the Dynamic Plaid Texture Design, the HUAWEI nova 13 Series injects a modern touch to bold, tech-inspired sophistication. The pattern’s shading shifts subtly with viewing angles, adding a dynamic visual appeal.

 

When it comes to cameras, the HUAWEI nova 13 Series supports multi-focal portrait capabilities for both front and rear cameras, delivering portrait shots with a rich and artistic vibrance. HUAWEI nova 13 Pro introduces an upgraded 50MP Adjustable Aperture Camera with a variable aperture range of F1.4 to F4.0, which adapts seamlessly to various shooting scenarios. Equipped with Optical Image Stabilisation (OIS), the camera improves light sensitivity for clearer results in low-light conditions. Additionally, the 3X Optical Zoom Telephoto Portrait Camera with OIS provides versatile zoom options, perfect for medium to long-distance portrait shots. 

 

With the launch of the HUAWEI nova 13 Series comes the unveiling of the AI Best Expression feature. This leverages AI technology to enhance burst shots with intelligent adjustments, allowing users to choose their best, most natural expressions to guarantee that everyone in the photo looks their best.

 

HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4: First TWS Earbuds Under the HUAWEI SOUND Brand

 

HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4 continues the series hallmark of being HUAWEI’s flagship lineup of high-end wireless earbuds. Dubbed the “World’s First TWS Earbuds with Lossless Audio,” the HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4 is set to establish groundbreaking standards for TWS earbuds performance in terms of lossless audio transmission, advanced noise cancellation algorithm and acoustics design.

 

Built on a foundation of advanced technical expertise and acoustic artistry, these earbuds deliver an unparalleled listening experience, combining high-resolution lossless transmission, Dual-driver True Sound system, and precise sound reproduction. This results in an immersive and exhilarating auditory experience. 

 

HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4 now offers up to an astounding 2.3Mbps of lossless audio transmission, compared to the 1.5Mbps of the previous generation. It supports HUAWEI’s proprietary Bluetooth protocol L2HC 4.0 codec, allowing uncompressed transmission of high-quality lossless audio at 48 kHz/24-bit. With the newly re-tuned Dual-driver True Sound, it works in harmony with Digital Cross-Over technology to deliver a rich and lifelike sound experience. 

 

When it comes to call clarity, HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 4’s Stable & Clear Calls feature can eliminate up to 100dB of external noise during calls thanks to HUAWEI’s ever-evolving AI noise reduction algorithm and 3 microphones with bone-conduction VPU microphone for enhanced noise isolation. 

 

HUAWEI FreeClip: Now in Rose Gold

 

The HUAWEI FreeClip continues to blend cutting-edge technology with sleek, fashion-forward aesthetics. Its signature C-Bridge design serves as both a functional clip and connector. It combines a refined ergonomic structure with a comfort-first mechanism, creating a seamless union of style and practicality.

 

The latest iteration of the HUAWEI FreeClip introduces a captivating colourway in Rose Gold. The soft pink hue, paired with subtle golden undertones, evokes a sense of romance and understated elegance.

 

Adding to its appeal, the HUAWEI FreeClip also brings new features such as Dynamic Bass Algorithm, Head Motion Controls, as well as Drop Reminders for users’ convenience. Designed to give users peace of mind, the Drop Reminders notifies users with a gentle alert if an earbud slips out during use. Expect a timely alert tone in the remaining earbud as well as a notification on your phone. This small yet impactful upgrade ensures uninterrupted user enjoyment no matter the activity.

Beko Champions Sustainability with 'Takbo Para Sa Kalikasan' and Pawikan Conservation Efforts

 As the world increasingly calls for sustainability, taking conscious action has become essential.  

Beko, a European home appliance brand, is championing this cause by supporting the Takbo Para Sa Kalikasan: Earth Run 2024 and the Pawikan Conservation Center, making a significant impact on sustainability and community empowerment.

 

The final leg of the elemental run series last December 7 attracted more than 8,000 participants, all brought together by their passion for running and commitment to caring for the environment. Beko showed support for the runners by providing free coffee and fans to help them recover after their long runs.

 

Beko’s support extends beyond just event sponsorship. In collaboration with Takbo Para Sa Kalikasan, Beko traveled to the Pawikan Conservation Center in Morong, Bataan, where they assisted in the release of over 100 newly hatched baby pawikans into the sea. These marine turtles play a vital role in the ecosystem by maintaining the balance of ocean life, sustaining coral reefs, and transporting essential nutrients from the oceans to other bodies of water.

 

During their visit, representatives from Beko participated in orientation sessions to enhance their understanding of conservation efforts. Beko also donated essential home appliances to the conservation center to support the livelihoods of the staff and patrollers.

 

Beko’s dedication is a reminder that sustainability starts at home. As the brand empowers households, it also contributes to nurturing the world through responsible practices and reliable home appliances -- together, creating a healthier world one home at a time.

Philippine Fashion Week Opens New Avenues for Collaboration Across 7 Style-Driven Industries

 The doors of Philippine Fashion Week (PhFW) have been opened wide for collaborations with designers, business owners, and brands or collaborators in 7 territories where style is intrinsic. Fashion, dining, beverages & spirits, home, travel, arts & entertainment, and wellness are such avenues of style. 

As inquiries are pouring in, and minds are starting to meet, the PFW’s new message ‘Reinvent The Runway’ addressed to the style industry poses a business challenge to brands to rethinktheir next act, whether that’s going to be a small or a seismic shift. The fresh perspective also clarifies PhFW’s role: to help collaborators reimagine what their next opportunity is and provide them the launchpad for it. And what better venue to launch the next idea or next phase in one’s business journey than a runway that has been in business for more than 28 years.

 

‘We need to remind people of the power of the runway,’ says Nikky Nicandro, PhFW’s new chief vision officer. And powerful it is. PhFW’s rebirth, marked by a successful launch at The Ayala Museum was a celebration of its contribution to the style industry and a teaser of things to come: more collaborations underway. 

 

The new PFW aims to excite business stakeholders within the 7 style vectors, emphasizing that every great idea they have is deserving of a runway. Runway here denotes two pillar events each year plus a host of bespoke events in between, the concepts of which are wide open to imagination – while considering a strong business push to create brand recognition and salience among a brand’s universe of customers. 

 

PhFW’s new management team, with Nikky and Pris Santos,chief strategy officer, together with their team, are seasoned brand and communications marketers for a very good reason: the new Philippine Fashion Week is rebuilt for a fresh way of managing the business of style. 

 

Audie and Joey Espino, founders of PhFW, are so keen to instill a lighthouse idea to guide the whole industry. It’s called the ‘Culture of Fashion’, which has two critical components to it – the business of selling and a business attitude. From Audie’s storehouse of experience comes this harsh certainty, ‘Fashion is business. The brand, the design, if it doesn't sell, it doesn't build business. We won't hear about it. Business needs capital, but how would you eat if you don't sell?’ The warning cuts through the fabric of both small and established brands and more so to the next generation of aspiring creators. 

 

‘PhFW’s selection of collaborators is critical, starting with our fashion designers who are going to show in the next event. Only those who are committed to growing their business by stepping into a broader stage make the cut,’ says Nikky, who personally sees through the deliberation process. 

 

PhFW crystallizes for its collaborators the opportunistic times for any brand or talent to seek a new stage. When it’s time to: amp your style, refresh your heritage, create relevant content, reach a much broader audience, expand your geographic footprint, be seen and heard in a new way, be experienced differently, and shine on a new platform – it IS the right time to reinvent your runway.

Is Your Dog Protected from Parasites? Prevention Is Key to Keeping Your Canine Healthy!

 While it’s one thing to be aware of the manifold risks of parasites, it’s another to truly understand the gravity of the threats they pose to our beloved pets.

One moment, we could be playing outside with our dog (or snuggling in bed, no matter how brief, as they always seem to escape our hugs), and the other, they’re lethargic or feeling down. Then, they turn out to be sick, stricken by parasites, and eventually refuse to eat. Everything could go south at a moment’s notice, leaving us with little to no time to act. That’s why Boehringer Animal Health Philippines, Inc., a leader in animal health, reminds us to guard our pets from the next parasites as prevention is always better than cure.

To know exactly what we’re dealing with, let’s run down the different parasites that cause all sorts of problems to our furry companions--from simple skin irritations to life-threatening complications.

Seeing your dog suffering from something that eludes your eyes is frustrating. When this happens, they’re most likely dealing with sneaky invaders or internal parasites. These tiny worms wreak havoc inside your dog, which they pick up by ingesting its carrier or its egg from contaminated food or water, as well as surfaces, objects, and other animals’ feces.

Among the most common internal parasites in dogs are heartworms, one of the most notorious internal parasites. Transmitted by mosquitoes, heartworms can damage vital organs such as the heart and lungs, which can have fatal repercussions. Then, there are roundworms. These thin and long parasites can cause various digestive issues and even stunt the growth of puppies. If your dog suddenly lacks energy and becomes more prone to illnesses, hookworms may be the cause. They feed on blood and can cause anemia, weight loss, and a weakened immune system. Both roundworms and hookworms are zoonotic, meaning they can transfer from animals to humans.

Other parasites are less subtle in their approach. They attack from the outside as visible villains that cause discomfort and irritation. These external parasites range from fleas, which trigger intense itching and skin infections, to ticks—nasty blood-sucking pests. Meanwhile, mites can cause skin irritation, hair loss, and pesky ear infections.

Since parasites come in all shapes and sizes with various plans of attack, it’s easier to employ a proactive rather than reactive approach in addressing the issue. Keeping these threats at bay remains the greatest option in ensuring our dogs continue to live their best lives.

Truly, the value of regular vet check-ups cannot be overstated. Religiously schedule an appointment with your veterinarian to monitor your dog’s health and discuss appropriate prevention strategies. From there, you will learn of the best preventive medications to keep your dogs guarded from the next internal and external parasites.

It's simple math: Less time nursing a sick dog equals more moments to create quality, precious memories together.

Jollibee Tuguegarao’s New Store on Enrile Boulevard Goes Green with Sustainable Innovations

Jollibee has officially opened its newest store in Enrile Boulevard, Tuguegarao City, Cagayan in early November. Apart from adding another footprint in the quick-service restaurant’s growing presence in Northern Luzon, the new store also houses green technologies—strengthening the brand’s commitment towards sustainability while continuing to satisfy customers’ jolly cravings.

"We’re very excited to bring more joy and welcome customers to our new store in Tuguegarao. Beyond our commitment to serving the best-tasting food, we also recognize our responsibility to build a more sustainable future, one joyful meal at a time. Jollibee Enrile Boulevard is one of the many initiatives we have launched—and will continue to launch—towards this goal, with the store featuring an array of green technologies designed to minimize environmental impact," said Jon Villanueva, VP-Restaurant Systems of Jollibee Philippines. 

 

Green technologies

Jollibee Enrile Boulevard incorporates a variety of solutions and technologies aimed at reducing overall waste and utilizing renewable sources—several of which are already implemented individually in select Jollibee branches nationwide.

 

This includes solar panels that reduce energy consumption by as much as 30%, partnered with a solar water heater for kitchen use and solar window films that help regulate temperature and repel outside heat. High efficiency motors are also installed to better manage the exhaust system and provide fresh air supply in the kitchen. This is particularly helpful for a store like Jollibee Enrile Boulevard which runs 24/7, as these motors allow the store to save energy during non-peak hours.

 

The new store’s solar panels and LED lights help reduce energy consumption

 

Converting pylon lights into LED is another impactful move for the new store as this results to at least 80% reduction in energy use. The store’s restrooms now feature light motion sensors and automatic low flow faucets that ensure no energy or water is wasted when not in use. The store is also equipped with a state-of-the-art wastewater treatment facility, which allows the use of treated and clean recycled water when flushing toilets. Even rainwater is not wasted as the water recycling system converts rainwater for use in general upkeep activities like watering plants or cleaning the store’s exterior areas.

 

Joy for tomorrow

The above are just some of Jollibee Enrile Boulevard’s features designed to reduce the branch’s carbon footprint, while ensuring that all operations remain at their most effective to serve customers better. This is aligned with the Jollibee Group’s push towards more sustainable business practices, as asserted in its “Joy for Tomorrow” sustainability agenda that’s focused on Food, People, and Planet.

 

“As we continue to grow and open more stores around the Philippines, we hope to provide the same joyful experiences while anchoring our actions towards sustainability,” said Bong Filart, VP-Network Development of Jollibee Philippines. “This will allow us to have a positive impact on the environment and the community while continuing to be a source of joy for Filipinos,” he said.

Grab PH Teams Up with NAIA and OneAyala to Offer Free Holiday Shuttle Rides at Terminals 2 and 3

 Grab Philippines, in partnership with the New NAIA Infra Corp. (NNIC) and OneAyala, is providing free shuttle rides for Filipinos arriving at Terminals 2 and 3 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport – the busiest terminals this holiday season. 

The Grab Be Present Bus provides convenient point-to-point transportation for Overseas Filipino Workers and other domestic travelers, connecting NAIA Terminals 2 and 3 directly to the OneAyala Transport Hub.

 

Ride-hailing platforms in the Philippines are facing increased pressure this holiday season as surging demand collides with persistent challenges such as traffic congestion and supply-demand imbalance. Grab Philippines’ historical data shows that the number of ride bookings grows to as much as 45% in the second and third weeks of December, directly impacting the reliability of the existing fleet of Transport Network Vehicle Services (TNVS) drivers to render their services. 

 

With the Grab Be Present Bus connecting passengers from the airport to a hub that houses other mass transit options, these concerns are effectively mitigated – ensuring more Filipinos can reach their destinations this season. 

The Grab Be Present Bus free shuttle services will be available from December 12 to 14 and December 19 to 21, 2024, operating daily from 1:00 PM to 11:00 PM. Passengers who wish to avail of the service can find Grab marshalls stationed at the arrival halls who will be ushering them to the pick-up point. They can also directly proceed to the pick-up points located at Terminal 3 (Bay 4) and Terminal 2 (Bay 5). To board the bus, passengers simply need to register and present their Grab app to the marshalls.
