Maymay Entrata shares why the Infinix HOT 20S is the ideal gaming phone for her

Tweet

All kinds of gamers want the best smartphone in their hands to perform their best and grab those precious victories. You also want a device that works as your ideal companion while traveling or spending your free time.

With her busy daily schedule, this need for a reliable phone is something that singer-actress and Infinix brand ambassador Maymay Entrata knows all too well. For her, the new Infinix HOT 20S more than serves these dual roles perfectly well.

The perfect gaming companion

Mobile gaming is on the rise, and more gamers want to have the best device at the right budget. This is why Maymay Entrata is definitely excited for the Infinix HOT 20S, as it’s a device that can handle all the best games she wants to play.

She really likes the power of the HOT 20S’ processor and how it makes playing games smooth and lag-free. “Pinakagusto kong feature nya ay yung Helio G96 gaming processor kasi mahilig akong mag laro ng iba’t ibang games. Eh diba pag naglalaro po tayo, importanteng hindi tayo maglag. Kaya perfect phone siya talaga for everyday gaming,” she says.

(“The feature I love the most is its Helio G96 gaming processor, because I love to play different games. When we play mobile games, it’s important that we don’t experience lag. That’s why it’s the perfect phone for everyday gaming.”)

The Infinix HOT 20S is a great way to stream and watch your favorite content, as well. When asked about how she spends her free time, Entrata says, “I usually watch my series sa phone ko, at siyempre ‘di mawawala yung gaming at mas napapadalas na ang paglalaro ko kasi using the Infinix HOT 20S kasi ‘di talaga sya nagla-lag.”

(“I usually watch my series on my phone, and of course there’s always my mobile gaming. I get to play a lot more with the Infinix HOT 20S because the gameplay doesn’t lag.”)

Being away from home, it’s also important for Entrata to keep in touch, and the HOT 20S packs a 13GB extended RAM for top performance at all times, and 128GB internal storage that provides a lot of space for essential apps.

“I keep in touch with my loved ones sa pamamagitan ng pag me-message and video calls all the time. Using my Infinix HOT 20S na may 13GB extended RAM plus 128GB internal storage, hindi na ako mag wo-worry kung ilang video call apps pa ang na-download ko kasi alam kong maraming space ang storage ko,” she adds.

(“I keep in touch with my loved ones by messaging and making video calls all the time. Using my Infinix HOT 20S with its 13GB extended RAM plus 128GB internal storage, I don’t have to worry about how many video call apps I download because I know I’ll have enough space in my phone’s storage.”)

‘Blessed and grateful’ to be an Infinix brand ambassador

Infinix is one of the most competitive phone brands in the Philippine market that’s rising in popularity by the day, and Entrata is grateful to become its brand ambassador.

“I’m very much blessed and grateful kasi knowing Infinix, ito ay may mga napakagandang phone, kilala at ginagamit ng karamihan. Doon pa lang, I felt honored na maging official brand ambassador ng Infinix,” she says.

(“I’m very much blessed and grateful because knowing Infinix, this brand has a lot of great phones, and it’s popular and widely used. From that alone, I felt honored to become an official Infinix brand ambassador.”)

She also shared the challenges of shooting the HOT 20S TV commercial, in which she and the crew working that day to overcome the bad weather.

“Yung experience ko po sa paggawa ng HOT 20S TV commercial ay napaka-challenging kasi yung panahon na ‘yun napakalakas ng ulan, medyo bumabaha na ng konti yung venue namin at malapit kami sa river,” Entrata recounts.

(“My experience shooting the HOT 20S TV commercial was really challenging, because the rain was heavy and our shooting venue got slightly flooded and we were near a river.”)

Their efforts bore fruit, as the HOT 20S TV commercial turned out perfect, portraying Entrata as a dynamic and exciting ambassador for the highly anticipated phone.

Performing at her best no matter what, just like the HOT 20S, is nothing new for Entrata. Apart from being a brand ambassador, she has also become a successful singer—her new single “Puede Ba,” released last month, quickly became one of the most listened-to songs in the country.

She appreciates all the valuable lessons she learned as a performer. “Never settle for less talaga, kasi naniniwala ako na you can be extraordinary if you want or chose to. At sobrang masaya akong patuloy akong nagbibigay ng inspirasyon sa kanila to believe in themselves and never give up chasing their dreams.”

(“Really never settle for less, because I believe you can be extraordinary if you want or choose to. And I’m so happy to continuously inspire people to believe in themselves and never give up chasing their dreams.”)

Entrata is also willing to take up new roles in the future and learn more, simply saying, “Keep learning, improving, and exploring new genres.”

Like Maymay Entrata, you too can level up your gaming experience without breaking the bank with the new Infinix HOT 20S. The HOT 20S is available in Light Rider-White, Sonic Black, Fantasy Purple, and Tempo Blue which retails for P8,499 in official stores nationwide, and in Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop.

Sulit life hack from MayWard: “It’s all about spending your time online wisely”

Tweet

Manila, Philippines – Teen stars Maymay Entrata and Edward Barber, popularly known as MayWard, are among the busiest young stars in showbiz today.

With TV series and a lot of projects in the pipeline, free time is a luxury for the phenomenal love team. What’s a day like for MayWard?

“On most days, we’re on set or on location shooting,” Edward shared. “We spend long hours at work, away from our families. So, we really make the most of whatever downtime we get.” As an online gaming enthusiast, Edward likes to play during break times, and tries to teach Maymay as well.

For her part, Maymay enjoys binge-watching fashion, make-up and runway video blogs. In fact, she’s applying some of those tricks to her own runway skills in real life.

She said, “Minsan when online, yun na yung ‘me’ time namin kapag nasa shooting o nasa trabaho. Tapos siyempre kapag may break, ‘yun na rin ‘yung time namin para tumawag safamily at friends kasi lagi kaming malayo sa kanila.”

Digitally savvy as they are, MayWard makes sure to keep a balance between their online activities and nurturing their real-life relationships. “We definitely enjoy our digital lifestyle, it’s part of who we are and what we do,” Edward said. “But we also enjoy hanging out with our friends and loved ones. It’s all about balancing your time online and offline.”

“Malaking bagay ‘yung internet lalo na kung long distance ‘yung relationship mo sa family at friends pero ibang bagay pa rin ‘yung quality time na magkasama kayo,” Maymay furthered.

Aside from their showbiz engagements, the teen idols are also brand ambassadors of PLDT Home WiFi—the telco leader’s prepaid broadband service. It’s the ideal home internet solution for young netizens like MayWard because you only load it when you need it and there are no lock-in periods, monthly charges or bill shock from uncontrolled data usage. 

As brand ambassadors for PLDT Home WiFi, MayWard reminds their fans to make the most out of their internet connection by sharing it with their family and using it for important online activities such as schoolwork or weekend bonding with the family.

Edward noted, “Make sure you have real-life bonding moments with your loved ones and use your data wisely. When you buy a Home Prepaid WiFi device, you get free 10GB data which you can use for school or for online activities you do for fun.”

When it comes to maximizing data, his advice is to make sure that data-consuming mobile settings are turned off. “Check your auto-refresh and auto-play settings so you can save your data for videos that you really want to watch. And if possible, watch in SD instead of HD to save data,” he said.

With PLDT Home WiFi, you can also manage your data usage by checking your balance and usage. To check the balance, just connect to your PLDT Home Wifi and visit pldthome.com/homewifiload.

Maymay concluded, “Sa experience namin ni Edward, mas nasusulit mo ang data kapag alam mo kung pa’no i-balanceang paggamit nito. Halimbawa, sa PLDT Home WiFi, pwede ka mag-log in sa dashboard to check your balance para laging sakto sa data at sa budget.”

The PLDT Home WiFi is available at all PLDT Stores and retailers nationwide for a one-time payment of Php1,995. It already comes with free 10GB of data valid for seven days.
