5 tips to level up your content creation game with the realme 8

Tweet

The rise of popular social media apps like Instagram and TikTok means just about everyone can be a multimedia content creator if they want to, resulting in a lot more content to enjoy online. Because of this, content creation has become quite the passion for today’s generation, and realme, the number 1 smartphone brand in the Philippines, is committed to nurturing this passion and enabling the youth’s creativity.

While these social media apps make it easy for anyone to publish content for friends and followers, creating consistently beautiful images and videos—especially with only your smartphone—is something you’ll have to work a little harder to achieve. There’s no need to worry, though, because it’s not impossible to pull off with the realme 8 and its powerful photography features!

Here are a few tips to help you in creating great content using the realme 8.

1. Look for stunning locations to capture

The first thing to do when you start creating content is to make sure the shot looks really good. Half the battle is the location you’re in—if you can find a good, visually stunning location for your content, then it won’t be hard to make it eye-catching and beautiful. The realme 8’s main 64MP wide-angle lens can capture these alluring and dazzling locations with the best crispness and clarity to create some thumb-stopping photos and videos, so use it to your advantage!

2. Take as many photos and videos as you can

Chances are your first takes will not be the best takes you can use, so just keep shooting! No matter what you’re shooting, whether it’s a photo or video, take a lot of it so that you can have as many options as you need—sometimes the best one will be the one you take after the first. With the realme 8, you can keep shooting to your heart’s content with its impressive battery life thanks to its massive 5,000 mAh battery.

3. Try different perspectives

Don’t just hold up your phone’s camera in front of something! Try different angles to get different perspectives. The realme 8’s quad-camera setup in the rear has different lenses, such as an ultrawide and a macro lens, to make those out-of-the-box perspectives look good. You’ll never know what you might find when you try something unusual.

4. Try shooting at different times of the day

Shooting at more “dramatic” times of the day, like the golden hour in the afternoon or the blue hour before sunrise and after sunset, can help you create more beautiful shots and videos. Experiment with these different times to see what you can come up with—the realme 8’s cameras can expertly handle these various lighting scenarios.

5. Play around with various creative modes

While you can point and shoot with the realme 8’s camera, the built-in camera app also has different portrait modes you can try to produce even more creative shots. The special portrait modes include AI Color, Dynamic Bokeh, Neon Portrait, and AI Portrait, which you should play around with to see which ones pop out and catch your followers’ eye on their feeds.

There’s no photography need the realme 8 can’t handle—it’s a great partner for mobile content creation as it packs a lot of great features at a solid price. Capture infinity and start creating your best content yet for the whole world to see. Available in Cyber Black and Cyber Silver, get the realme 8 for only P13,990 SRP via realme’s official flagship store in Lazada and in over 500 realme stores and over 4,000 partner dealers nationwide.

#LiveLifeAtFullSpeed with OPPO A94 Now Available in the Philippines

Tweet

Global smart device brand OPPO officially announced the availability of its newest entertainment powerhouse, OPPO A94 via Livestream on its official Facebook page. The all-new A94 is designed for young trend seekers and mobile gamers who are looking for a powerful and reliable device that can keep up with their video and gaming needs to #LiveLifeAtFullSpeed. The latest A-series innovation is now available nationwide, via online stores, partner dealers, and leading e-commerce platforms for only PHP13,999.00.

OPPO A94 offers Filipinos a higher-performing smartphone experience with its 30W VOOC Flash Charge 4.0 as well as camera features such as Dual-View Video, and AI Color Portrait Video powered by 48MP Main and AI Quad Cam, with a 7.8mm Ultra-Slim and Flowing Light Design making it the perfect phone to give you a creative edge.

“With the ever-evolving content consumption behavior of Filipinos, they need a smartphone that’s value for money and can keep up with their fast-paced lifestyle, be it for gaming or capturing moments with their friends and loved ones and that’s where OPPO A94 comes in. Today, Filipinos can #LiveLifeAtFullSpeed as OPPO A94 as it is finally available in the Philippines,” said OPPO Philippines Marketing Director Raymond Xia.

Gaming at Full Speed

OPPO A94 runs at optimal performance thanks to its powerful MediaTek Helio P95 Octa-core Processor. This runs on 2 ARM Cortex-A75 Prime Cores that operate at up to 2.2GHz. 6 ARM Cortex-A55 Efficiency Cores also operate at up to 2.0GHZ. This means you’ll enjoy a faster app startup time, more responsive on-screen touches, and less lag allowing you to make most of your creative and gaming time.

Backed by a powerful processor, OPPO A94 will also be sure to immerse you in your game with smooth graphics, optimized network latency, and Real HD Sound that’s powered by Dirac. In addition, OPPO A94 comes with a baked-in Cooling System that’s tailored to optimally dissipate the heat emitted by resource-intensive games making sure you will champion a lag-free gaming experience.

With OPPO A94, you’ll enjoy every moment of the latest and your favorite games without distractions. A suite of gaming modes makes sure that messages are delivered subtly without completely interrupting your game. Game Focus Mode, a feature exclusive to OPPO, blocks all notifications including calls, gestures and even on-screen volume prompts. Gaming Shortcut Mode reduces the time it takes to cold start previously opened games by cutting out background resources that would otherwise need to be loaded, splash screens that feature studio logos, and even game walk-throughs.

For multi-taskers, Game Floating Window won’t interfere with your gameplay as a minimized screen won’t exit out of the game entirely. Rather, the game continues running as a floating window on-screen while you’re replying to emails or catching up on an urgent task for work. With the Bullet Screen Message, messages are scrolled across the screen but don’t force open pop-ups or interfere with your gameplay.

Photography and Dazzling Videos

OPPO A94 features a set of 48MP Quad Camera, 48MP main camera and a 32MP Front-facing Camera perfect for taking videos day and night. To add depth to your photos and videos, the main camera works in concert with an 8MP ultra-wide-angle camera, 2MP macro camera and 2MP mono camera.

The AI Color Portrait Video is getting an upgrade on OPPO A94 and can now also be used to capture beautiful videos. Like its photography variant, AI Color Portrait Video works by recognizing the person in the video shot with OPPO A94 and can intelligently distinguish the person from their background. To better showcase your creativity, OPPO A94’s Monochrome Video highlights and enhances a single RGB color in any shot, while filtering out all other color pallets, adding a splash of drama to your footage by juxtaposing contrasting colors.

For vloggers and those who rely on their phones to record their daily lives, OPPO introduces a new way to capture two perspectives at once. Dual-View Video lets you record footage from the front-facing and rear cameras simultaneously.

OPPO A94 also brings back the AI Beautification 2.0 to individually enhance the natural beauty, including facial contours and skin colors, and the AI Scene Enhancement 2.0 which recognizes 20 types of landscape shots and improves the color saturation and contrast ratio pixel-by-pixel. Equipped as well with Soloop, you can easily edit videos with filtered, subtitles and music into shareable movie-quality clips.

Live More with Longer Battery Life

OPPO A94 enables you to continue living your fullest life as it showcases a larger 4310mAh battery and 30W VOOC Flash Charge 4.0 technology. When your battery has been nearly depleted, 30W VOOC Flash Charge 4.0 reliably and rapidly charges OPPO A94, granting you 2.9 hours of watching on YouTube for just a 5-minute charge.

When you are down to the last few percentage points of battery life, OPPO A94 has All-day Smart Power Saving which offers several power-saving modes to keep your phone powered.

 

Slim and Fashionable Design

The A-Series is known for its slim design concept and OPPO A94 is no different. With this generation, you’ll enjoy a sleek design thanks to a 7.8mm Ultra Slim Body weighing only 172g, and rounded out with a 3D curved battery cover.

To pack in cutting-edge hardware including the Quad Camera and a larger battery, all the while keeping the phone slim, OPPO had to think big to keep the design small. The battery cover is only 0.55mm thick, while the screen dissipates heat through a slim 0.1mm graphite plate. OPPO A94's shock and drop resistance is enhanced by optimizing the stacking of small motherboard components and by strengthening the protection of its structural components.

OPPO is also introducing its brand new Flowing Light Design concept, which showcases a gentler and warmer look to the phone. What is notable about Flowing Light Design is that it uses a composite panel used on the back cover. This adds a high degree of transparency that’s comparable to glass, but manages to convey a complex matte, yet glossy texture that’s glare-free and soft.

All the fun tricks you can do with just a smartphone camera to show #ClearlyTheBestYou

Uncover how to do all the popular camera tricks on social media with 

the trendiest smartphone built for content that stands out 

These days, your social media presence is more important than ever. It’s a way to escape, to stay informed and connected, and to show off your personality especially in the socially distant normal. The content you share is a way for you to express yourself and your creativity on your own terms. 

The latest from global smart device brand OPPO is the Reno4, a smartphone packed with powerful camera features to make sure your feed is always on point. In the palm of your hand are a 48MP high-definition quad camera, which includes ultra-wide, macro and mono lenses, and a 32MP selfie camera, so your photos and videos are sure to be clear and crisp from every angle. The OPPO Reno4 camera is also equipped with the most innovative features so you can tap into their creativity to show off #ClearlyTheBestYou and take your content game to the next level. Here are five easy tips to keep your content on fleek at all times: 

Stand out against your surroundings 

Ever wonder how scenes are so beautifully captured in your favorite movies? Apart from the years spent honing their craft, the tools and software that filmmakers have at their disposal is key in enabling them to create those iconic scenes that we get to know and love. The technique of isolating color has been employed by filmmakers to highlight the plot or relay hidden messages, or just make a character stand out against a crowd. 

With AI Color Portrait and Monochrome Video Mode on the OPPO Reno4 series, you can now do the same with your smartphone - no edits required! Simply bring your subject into focus when in AI Color Portrait Mode or select colors like red, green, blue while recording in Monochrome Video Mode to make your subject pop! 

Stay vibrant even at night 

Every photographer, amateur or pro, will tell you that lighting is key to recording outstanding photos. This comes as a no-brainer, but there are still ways for you to capture stunning images even during the night. 

Here to capture the beauty of your subject, the Reno4 series’ Ultra Dark Mode and Ultra Night Selfie Mode helps make your shots bright, even in extreme low light environments. To bring your night photography up a notch, OPPO has also introduced its new Night Flare Portrait Mode which adds a bokeh effect against a vivid background to produce eye-catching results! 

Get into super slow motion 

Time flies when you’re having fun. However, the OPPO Reno4 enables you to capture those epic moments and slow it down for you to enjoy every millisecond of it! The 960fps AI Slow-motion feature captures the finer details - the beauty of a raindrop as it hits the ground or the turn of a Formula1 racer as it whizzes by the track. Practice tracking and panning in the direction the object is moving towards - this will help keep the object you’re filming focused in the center of your screen to produce jaw-dropping shots! 

Take stability to another level 

In an action film, car chases and fight sequences are key elements that provide an immersive experience. But owning a professional gimbal is not for everybody, especially those who are exploring videography. 

This is where the OPPO Reno4 Ultra Steady Video 3.0 Mode will come in handy, especially for all aspiring action directors, extreme sports enthusiasts and vloggers. Powered by its in-built electronic image stabilization (EIS) technologies, the Reno4 can accurately sense and reduce any shake from your hands, allowing you to capture adrenaline-pumping action with ease. Available in its main lens, ultra-wide and in the front-facing camera, you can now share the energy and adrenaline rush you are experiencing without the blur in your vlogs or videos! 

Edit videos directly on your phone without downloading an app 

Everyone knows that the key to creating an outstanding video is adding the right sound and visual effects — but it can be a pain to send all your videos to your desktop, look for the right video editing program, and fiddle with a mountain of settings just to make your vlog on point. 

These pains disappear with the OPPO Reno4 built-in video editing app Soloop! Just add your videos to the Soloop Smart Video Editor app and put on the finishing touches in a jiffy. Developed independently by OPPO’s ColorOS team, Soloop turns your footage into a professional looking vlog by adding music, filters, subtitles, captions and transitions — perfect for making your videos go viral on TikTok or YouTube. 

Retailing at PHP18,990, the OPPO Reno4 is available in all concept stores nationwide, dealer partners, and e-commerce partners Shopee and Lazada, as well as via Globe Postpaid, free with ThePlan 1499 with Rock Space EB100 Stereo Earbuds. 

In keeping the Christmas celebration joyful, OPPO is offering special bundles for OPPO Reno4 as part of the #OPPOJoyFullSale. You can avail (1) Parkland backpack and 2 Viu 3-month if you purchase during the last episode of the Joy-Full OPPO Sale Livestream this coming December 19 at 5pm on OPPO Philippines official Facebook and Lazada pages.

The country’s top 2 smartphone brand realme Philippines seals its position yet again in the local gaming market by launching a new device which is a perfect addition to the arsenal of young aspiring Filipino gamers -- the realme narzo 20. Intended for aspiring gamers, the realme narzo 20 draws powerful performance from its gaming chipset MediaTek Helio G85 and supports prolonged hours of adventure through its 6,000mAh mega battery with 18W quick-charge technology.

 

A recent study by Newzoo, the world's most trusted source for games market insights and analytics, shows that the majority of gamers in the Philippines prefer mobile devices as platforms for their gaming spree. realme Philippines, in a bid to make more options available for Filipinos, officially brings to the country its narzo line-up with the introduction of the narzo 20. The narzo by realme line-up bridges the great divide between midrange and entry-level devices by bringing top-tier chipsets and other essential gaming features at affordable price points.

 

“We at realme have always been keen on empowering the youth to explore their many potentials. Mobile gaming in the country is indeed on the rise. This is why we hope we can inspire more young gamers to try their luck and skills in mobile gaming without them having to break the bank for high-tier devices. The realme narzo 20 is ready to be in the arsenal of every young Filipino gamer,” shares realme Philippines VP for Marketing Austine Huang.

 

Feel the power in performance

Gamers use powerful devices in slaying enemies to achieve victory in every battle. The realme narzo 20 is a gaming device that is equipped with the powerful MediaTek Helio G85 octa-core processor, which pumps its Arm Mali-G52 GPU up to a 2GHz peak, allowing great gaming for avid mobile gamers. Users need not worry about lagging as the device ensures smooth performance even in heavy-loading game engines like Mobile Legends and PUBG. As a processor for gaming, Helio G85 reaches 200,000+ in Antutu Benchmark.

 

Feel the power with a mega battery

The realme narzo 20 packs a hefty 6,000mAh mega battery, the biggest there is in the device’s price segment. This massive battery is essential for gamers who are in gaming marathons as it could easily last all day even with intensive gaming usage or when used for entertainment, online classes or work. Complementing this mega battery is an 18W quick-charge technology which allows the drained device to charge to 29 percent in just 30 minutes. realme Lab tests have shown that the realme narzo 20 could last for 45 days in standby mode which is far better than some flagships. With a special OTG reverse charge, narzo 20 can also serve as a battery life saver for other devices.

 

Feel the power of great snaps

The realme narzo 20 features a 48MP AI Triple Camera that lets users capture a perfect shot with stunning clarity and a wider perspective. Its other two rear cameras are an 8MP Ultra-wide Angle Lens and a Macro Lens. On the front, an 8MP selfie camera is available to take crystal clear selfies. The front camera also supports AI beautification function, HDR mode, portrait mode and a Panoselfie feature which lets users take wider selfies. This device is perfect for heavy smartphone users who rely on their mobile device for digital interactions like online schooling and content creation.

 

Feel the power of realme e-commerce
