Tweet

OPPO, the leading global smart device brand debuted the OPPO Find N2 Flip to much fanfare to the global market late last year, and its successor is coming to elevate the standard in flip phone technology.

OPPO is soon unveiling the OPPO Find N3 Flip in the Philippines as the newest foldable smartphone, which features major upgrades such as more versatile cover screen functionality, a more premium build, industry-first triple camera system with astounding Hasselblad imaging technology, industry-leading fast charging and battery and smooth powerful performance.

Seamless Integration of Style and Utility

The highlight of the newest OPPO foldable phone is the cover screen display, which introduces a host of more functional enhancements. The OPPO Find N3 Flip's cover screen will allow users to access and use multiple apps, without having to unfold their smartphone.

The improved cover screen can accommodate more popular apps, including third-party apps like Gmail, Spotify, X (formerly Twitter), WhatsApp, and Google Maps. So, whether you need to scroll through your social media timelines, check a map, switch tracks, or write a quick email, it's all just a tap away on the cover screen.

This dynamic screen also presents users with quick toggles and simultaneously accommodates up to six notifications. The OPPO Find N3 Flip takes personalization to the next level with over 20 screen styles you can customize, direct cover widgets to add for applications such as Messages, Camera, Battery, Recorder, Timer, and To-dos.

It also enhances the user experience by introducing a fresh animated weather wallpaper and a corresponding Always-On Display (AOD) that provides real-time information. It improves accessibility by enabling users to pin three widgets or apps directly onto the cover screen wallpaper, offering swift and convenient access with just a tap.

The OPPO Find N3 Flip exudes premium sophistication with its glass and metal construction, creating a sleek and comfortable design. Its curved form offers a visual appeal and a borderless in-hand experience, making it a pleasure to grip and hold. Two captivating colors will be made available in the Philippines: Cream Gold and Sleek Black.

Industry-First Triple Camera System for Flip Phones

The OPPO Find N3 Flip is the first flip smartphone in the market to have a triple camera system, integrating a more powerful wide angle camera and telephoto camera. Its Hasselblad-powered camera setup includes a 50MP main camera with IMX890 Sony sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide camera  with 115-degree field of view; and a 32MP telephoto portrait camera with RGBW IMX709 sensor.

The OPPO Find N3 Flip's ultrawide camera is like an artist with an even bigger canvas, boasting a higher resolution compared to the OPPO Find N2 Flip. It's also bringing along an industry first telephoto lens incorporated in a foldable phone for those picture-perfect moments.Taking selfies with the OPPO Find N3 Flip is now made more convenient and versatile. Thanks to the cover screen doubling as a rear camera viewfinder, there’s no need to unlock the device for that perfect shot. When you unfold the OPPO Find N3 Flip and switch to the main display, it's like hitting the camera magic button. Making a comeback is FlexForm Mode, which enables your camera to spring to life, with the preview taking over the top half of the screen, and your camera controls setup accessible in the lower half. It's the ultimate setup for capturing steady and stylish results at any angle.

Flagship Performance on a Flip

Expect nothing less than fast, smooth, and consistent performance from OPPO’s latest flagship foldable phone. The OPPO Find N3 Flip is equipped with the cutting-edge MediaTek Dimensity 9200 chipset, which delivers outstanding speed and efficiency, enabling seamless multitasking for a more productive flip phone experience.

The OPPO Find N3 Flip takes care of your daily needs with a long-lasting 4,300 mAh battery, freeing you from the inconvenience of constantly seeking a charger. The device also features the industry-leading 44W SUPERVOOC™ fast charging.

Samsung’s Solve for Tomorrow invites STEM students to propose tech solutions for social impact

Tweet

Launched for the first time in the Philippines, Samsung’s Solve for Tomorrow aims to unleash the creativity and potential of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) students in discovering social solutions with the use of technology. In partnership with the Department of Education (DepEd) and the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), Solve for Tomorrow aims to provide opportunities for top students to transform emerging ideas into action and unlock their full potential as future leaders. This global program has successfully helped over 2 million people and has reached beyond the boundaries of 50 other countries, including the Philippines, as the latest addition this 2023.

Samsung is inviting public science high school students from Grades 8 to 10 to showcase their groundbreaking ideas that can positively impact communities and create a better tomorrow. Participating schools can form teams with a maximum of four (4) students and one (1) faculty advisor for every entry. There will be no limit to how many teams can join per school.

The team should identify a local community or an environmental sustainability problem and provide a design proposal outlining sustainable and feasible solutions with the help of technology. The proposal can be in a slide presentation format (5 slides maximum) or a Word document (2,500 words maximum). After completing the proposal, teams must submit their entry via the Solve for Tomorrow registration site before or on November 3, 2023.

Ten shortlisted teams will have a chance to be coached by Samsung experts, and present their proposals to an esteemed board of judges. The Grand Prize winner will receive Samsung devices worth up to ₱650,000 for their school, ₱190,000 worth of Samsung devices for the team and their teacher adviser, ₱100,000 cash prize for team members, and P 20,000 cash prize for faculty adviser. Full mechanics and prizes can be found on the official website.

Here are just some of the solutions developed by winners of Samsung’s Solve for Tomorrow from around the world.

Looking for a study buddy? TAZ’s App got your back

Indeed, wherever young innovators triumph, each convenes to develop solutions for a better tomorrow.  TAZ, the winning team from Malaysia in 2021, from St. Francis Institution, Malacca, developed an app that helps Malaysian students around the country to connect with study buddies who share similar interests and help them acquire access to a variety of learning materials nationwide and equip their peers with time management tips.

PathFinder System:  Key to safer spaces in schools

A gunshot detection and evacuation system was one of the 2022 Solve for Tomorrow’s grand prize winners in the United States. Designed by students from Porter High School, Texas, the PathFinder system addresses crowd stampedes caused by a threat of an active shooter. It aims to ensure students' safety inside their school and ease the fear of school shootings. It essentially eradicates false alarms and its LED lights change color to indicate the proximity of danger while pointing out the safest way out. It was one of the smartest prototypes proposed in the competition, as it is highly functional and sustainable.

Support athletes during competitions with the Human Health Band

With an innovation that aimed to assist athletes on their road to victory, Strawberry Crest High School from Dover, Florida, was awarded one of the four grand-winners for Solve for Tomorrow 2023. With a Human Health Band designed to monitor an athlete’s body temperature and prevent heat-related deaths,  the team conducted thorough research on making this project feasible and sustainable to save lives using recycled fabrics and developed software.

Join Samsung in its mission to help build a better future and be part of the country’s very first Solve for Tomorrow competition. The deadline for submission is November 03, 2023. Interested applicants can learn more and submit their entries at the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow site: https://www.samsung.com/ph/solve-for-tomorrow/

Jobstreet by SEEK named runner-up at the YouTube Works Awards Southeast Asia 2023

Tweet

Leading online career platform Jobstreet by SEEK was announced as a runner-up at the recently concluded YouTube Works Awards Southeast Asia 2023 with its video campaign series “Hire Real Talent”.

Jobstreet by SEEK’s three-part video series is considered as one of the most innovative and effective campaigns on YouTube in the past year. It was nominated for “The All Action Hero,” a category that recognizes brands that maximize the action-oriented features of YouTube to effectively achieve its goals and encourage conversion and/or awareness.

YouTube had garnered over 750 applications from across Southeast Asia, with Jobstreet by SEEK being only one of the 12 Philippine brands that were announced as finalists such as Nestle, Lazada, and GCash to name a few.

The Hire Real Talent campaign aims to bare the realities of hiring candidates on social media while encouraging hirers to utilize legitimate job platforms to target the right candidates. Jobstreet by SEEK went with a satirical and witty take on the matter to show hirers that seeking talents through social media may not bring them the best-suited candidates which can result in an inefficient recruitment process. Social media lacks identity verification, making it hard to distinguish real from fake accounts. Users often lack professional profiles and work experience information unlike in job platforms, making it difficult for employers to assess candidates.

In the first video, the applicant being interviewed had a display photo of a newly set-up social media account—anonymous, lifeless, and unrecognizable. As for the second video, the applicant shown was unidentifiable due to their profile photo being a family portrait. Lastly, in the third video, the applicant is seen to have had work experience in a fictitious restaurant, making it difficult to determine factual information about them.

The annual YouTube Works Awards, in partnership with research firm Kantar, recognizes and celebrates campaigns to champion the brilliant minds behind them. This year, it made its comeback bigger and better by bringing the competition all throughout the Southeast Asian region, presenting new categories and a jury brimming with local experts and brilliant minds.

“Being named as having one of the most effective campaigns this year is an incredible honor as we’ve seen a lot of exceptional executions over the past period, so we are extremely grateful for the YouTube Works Awards for recognizing our campaign. We will continue on creating content that will not just get the interest but also educate our audience to remain the most trusted career and talent platform in the Philippines,” shares Dannah Majarocon, Managing Director, Philippines, Jobstreet by SEEK.
