#PictureLifeTogether with Friends with the OPPO Reno5
Available in the Philippines starting February 2021, the Reno5 4G and Reno5 5G boast of the OPPO FDF Portrait Video System which guarantees clear images in any scenario, whether that be day, night, in strong backlight, while in motion, or while standing still. 

OPPO’s original, industry-leading AI Highlight Video now uses new generation technology that is capable of detecting light levels in a scene, and intelligently and optimally adjusts brightness, color, and clarity in videos resulting in a smooth video from frame to frame, vibrant colors, and reduces noise. This is the first time OPPO has united Ultra Night Video and Live HDR under one feature, which is available on both the front and rear cameras of both devices.

OPPO has also included a host of features, such as AI Color Portrait, AI Mixed Portrait (both only available on Reno5 4G), Monochrome Video, and more, giving users the power to create content with deeper and more creative stories. The phone’s FDF Portrait Video System also includes the Portrait Perception Engine to let users shoot in their style. Other camera features include the Scene Design Manager which analyzes different scenarios to give the user high-quality images wherever they are and Portrait Recognition which instantly recognizes the portrait subject in the image and separates them from the image background. In addition to facial recognition, it can also detect and track moving human bodies within a video and extract these portrait subjects with precision from even the most complex backgrounds so you can still be the highlight of a shot even if you’re in a busy environment.

Zoi Lifestyle App a must need up during Pandemic

Zoi Lifestyle App

Meet Zoi Lifestyle, the app that conveniently connects you to your go-to salons, spas, and skincare clinics. If you’ve tried setting up appointments with salons, spas, or even skincare clinics, you probably know how frustratingly difficult it can get. Phone calls are not picked up, text messages go unanswered, direct messages on social media are seen-zoned but ignored. Thankfully, all that is a thing of the past with the Zoi Lifestyle app.
Although trips to our go-to salons, barbershops, spas, or wellness clinics were not prioritized as much due to safety protocols, we can all agree that practicing self-care is also necessary especially at a time when mental and physical wellness is very important. This need is what led to the development of the Zoi Lifestyle App. Zoi Lifestyle is a new online mobile application that allows users to book appointments hassle-free with their favorite go-to salons, spas, skincare clinics, and the like. 


For clients, Zoi offers them the conveniences of online booking and cashless transactions, while ensuring they get the services they want. Through the app, you will be notified that your booking has been accepted or rejected. Once accepted, you can visit the salon or clinic on your chosen date and time to have your service. 
 
With Zoi's mobile application, anyone can now book appointments with salons, spas, and skincare clinics alike. As of today, Zoi has partnered with Cut by Encarnacion, Danna's Beauty Salon and Spa, Skinnovate Skin Care, Salon De Laurel, Royal Aesthetics, Lush, and Luxe Nail Lounge, and Dr. Claudine Ramos Dermatology. 

Mr. Patrick Victoria, Founder & CEO of Zoi Lifestyle App

“Because of the pandemic, many Filipinos, including myself, had no choice but to book appointments to get a haircut, a facial, or other services. However, many establishments in the beauty and wellness industry are not able to respond to customer queries. This is how we conceived Zoi, which has made it far easier and much more convenient for clients to book their haircuts and other beauty and wellness needs, all by using this app.” ~Patrick Victoria, Founder of Zoi Lifestyle App

Aside from recognizing the need for self-care amidst this time of uncertainty, Zoi Lifestyle was also developed to help support the beauty and wellness sector in recovering from the losses after nearly a year of the community battling the pandemic.

“The beauty and wellness industry took a major hit since the pandemic began in the country. Salons, spas, skin clinics, and barbershops were the first establishments mandated to close and the last ones to re-open, leading owners to either forego employees, scale down operations, or even shut down permanently.” ~Patrick Victoria, Founder of Zoi Lifestyle App
Through the Zoi Lifestyle App, beauty and wellness providers will have an additional platform to reach clients and increase their digital presence as they slowly return to their normal operations and adapt to the impacts of the pandemic.


“Our plan is to onboard more partners to enlist their businesses in the app so that people can have access to all their beauty and wellness needs at their fingertips. Currently, we have partners from all over Metro Manila but in the future, we plan to expand to other major cities in the Philippines like Cebu and Davao as well.” ~Patrick Victoria, Founder of Zoi Lifestyle App

Hospitality 2.0: Hotel Sogo’s Innovation in Post-Covid-19


The world is facing an economic, health, and social crisis due to Coronavirus (CoVid-19), which is identified as an illness caused by a virus that can spread from person to person. Truly, this CoVid-19 pandemic shook the hotel industry really hard, and turned many hotel businesses upside down, especially here in the Philippines. 

As we all know the hotel industry is designed to operate and accept guests 24/7. But because of this pandemic, travel restrictions were put in place to control the further spread of the virus. 

In line with that, Hotel Sogo, the largest hotel chain in the Philippines, utilized this pandemic as an opportunity for innovation.  Hotel Sogo unveiled new measures to re-establish confidence in the hotel industry as they adapt to the “new normal” state. 

Innovation as its finest
As part of their “So Clean, So Good, So Safe” campaign under its Sogo So Safe Program, concrete ways were made to increase its cleanliness standards to meet the new health and safety challenges brought on by this pandemic.

Take a look at their innovation during this post CoVid-19 giving their patrons a So Clean, So Good, So Safe stay.

Anti-Microbial Copper Films
To increase everyone’s safety, Hotel Sogo installed Microbial Copper infrequently touched surfaces of the hotel.

Hospitality 2.0:Hotel Sogo’s Innovation in Post-Covid-19


3M Filtrete™ Electrostatic Air Filters in All Rooms
Sogo started installing 3M Filtrete™ 3-in-1 Technology Aircon Filters in all rooms to augment its regular aircon filters. These are made with permanently-charged electrostatic fibers that remove Microparticle pollutants that include fine dust, pollen, pet dander, smoke, bacteria, and viruses, resulting in cleaner air. 

Hospitality 2.0:Hotel Sogo’s Innovation in Post-Covid-19

UVC Disinfection
Hotel Sogo is also implementing ultraviolet light technology for sanitizing cash registers, keycard cases, elevator buttons, and its ceiling, room door handles, as well as in food preparation for enhanced cleaning and disinfection processes.


Hospitality 2.0:Hotel Sogo’s Innovation in Post-Covid-19

With the use of UVC-light for disinfection, you are safe to stay at any Hotel Sogo branches as UVC cleans 99.99% of harmful pathogens, bacteria, and viruses in seconds.

No-Contact Hotel Features
As we develop more changes this new normal, Hotel Sogo has innovated all its branches in having no-contact facilities like a contactless thermal detector,  automatic doors, and developed the use of SaniKey for door handles, elevators buttons, and ATMs to lessen contact points and reduce the risk of virus transmission.

Microbial testing
Hotel Sogo makes sure that cleaning is accurate and effectively sanitized which gives proven results in just minutes.

So Clean…So Good…So Safe!

Hotel Sogo continuously vows to protect and provide excellent accommodation despite the CoVid-19 danger. 
“We promise to protect our staff and our guests who will visit our hotels, we are ready for new normal and this is a long-term commitment. This virus won’t stop each of us to create wonderful memories with our loved ones. Together, let us enjoy our stay in Hotel Sogo.” ~Mr. Reynaldo Malaca, Hotel Sogo CEO

OPPO Reno 5

A phone that adapts to your ever-changing lifestyle
In facing the new demands brought by the 5G era, and in keeping with the Reno series’ long-standing pursuit of providing a superior video and photo experience, OPPO has developed a more advanced and more comprehensive imaging system on the new Reno5 4G and Reno5 5G – the OPPO Full Dimension Fusion (FDF) Portrait Video System. Based on top-end imaging hardware, innovative image processing algorithms, and user-centric software, the OPPO FDF Portrait Video System caters to the diverse video creation needs of users in almost any situation, empowering them to capture the joy of life in every moment with easy-to-create professional-quality video content.

Picture Life Together with Friends
OPPO’s consumer research has shown that the core need for consumers is the ability to capture clear videos in any situation, and in a way that expresses their own unique style. At the same time, they want this process to be simple and easy to use.

OPPO believes the best way to solve this consumer need is through the perfect integration of imaging hardware and software. The all-new OPPO Full Dimension Fusion Portrait Video System works on the basis of top-end imaging hardware in tandem with flexible, intelligent software, together with OPPO’s extensive expertise in portrait scene detection and portrait feature design.
