The ‘Tough as Steel’ realme Note 60 proves its durability - now available for as low as P4,999

The beloved realme Note Series is back with a brand new addition: the realme Note 60, poised to set new benchmarks as one of the most affordable and durable phones on the market, priced at just P4,999 for its base variant.

--------------------------------------------------------

The newest release under the realme Note Series is one of the most durable entry-level phones 

in the market

--------------------------------------------------------

realme Note Series

The series first debuted in January this year with the realme Note 50, which broke records as the fastest-selling smartphone on TikTok Shop, with 4,000 units sold within minutes of its release. Thanks to the realme Note 50’s stellar performance, it was hailed as TikTok's biggest 1-Day Sale of the Month in January, totaling P28.9 million in sales.

The realme Note 50 made waves due to its impressive specs for an entry-level phone, priced at just P3,999 for the base 4GB+64GB variant. GizGuide called it “one of the best entry-level phones with key features like a 90Hz screen, a long-lasting 5000mAh battery, and a good-performing main rear camera,” while PhilSTAR Tech’s Ed Geronia Jr. remarked, “No phone under P4,000 should feel and work this well. But it seems realme has done a spectacular job at making it a reality.”

The official realme Community also raved about the realme Note 50, praising it as the best bang-for-buck phone. "I know the realme Note 50 is not meant as a gaming phone, but for a budget device, it's good to know it can handle [Call of Duty Mobile]—I didn’t expect it to perform this well," shared Squad Leader Milky De Guzman Valderama.

Tough as Steel

Now, the series has evolved with the introduction of the realme Note 60, which maintains an affordable price and features specs that make it "Tough as Steel." This new model boasts exceptional resistance to scratches, drops, and bends.

The realme team subjected the realme Note 60 to a series of unique tests to demonstrate its durability. To see how it performed under pressure, stay tuned for the strength test videos, soon to be posted on the official realme Facebook page.

In a creative take on the popular Filipino street game Tumbang Preso, the traditional slipper was replaced with the realme Note 60. Even after being knocked around, the phone endured minimal scrapes. 

The realme Note 60 was also tested in a rage room by throwing and smashing it against various surfaces. In another test, the phone replaced a traditional air hockey mallet. It handled every impact with remarkable resilience in both scenarios, showing no signs of surface damage.

Taking it a step further, the phone was used as a makeshift chopping board for vegetables during a knife scratch test, followed by a classic drop test from a height of 1.5 meters and came out completely unscathed.

Despite these extreme challenges, the realme Note 60 passed with flying colors, showcasing impressive resistance to scratches, bends, and drops.

Additionally, it features an IP64 rating for dust and water resistance and holds a TÜV Rheinland High-Reliability Certification. Altogether, the realme Note 60 is a powerhouse of durability, ready for any adventure.

The realme Note 60 is available in two striking colors—Voyage Blue and Marble Black—and comes in two storage variants: 4GB+64GB for P4,999 and 4GB+128GB for P5,999.

First selling promos

The realme Note 60 has already proven to be ‘Tough as Steel,’ but realme is taking durability a step further. Customers who purchase the device at realme Stores or authorized dealers from today until October 31 will receive a complimentary realme Care+ warranty, which includes an additional 1-year warranty extension worth P999, bringing the total coverage period to 2 years.

Jamie Miller Drops New Single “Long Way Home” and Teases Debut Album Coming October 18th

  • Jamie Miller has just released his latest single, “Long Way Home.” You can stream it here. 
  • His debut album is set to drop on October 18th. Be sure to pre-add/pre-save the album here so you don't miss out.
International pop music sensation Jamie Miller has announced the release of his eagerly-awaited debut album, Long Way Home, set to drop on October 18th. This highly-anticipated record promises to captivate fans with Miller’s trademark emotional ballads and soul-stirring melodies, now blended with fresh, upbeat rhythms. The album features a total of 14 tracks, including the title single Long Way Home, which dropped today and showcases Miller’s evolving sound. With a blend of introspective lyrics and vibrant new tempos, Long Way Home is set to be a defining moment in Miller’s career.

Long Way Home follows on the heels of Miller’s smash hit, Nothing To Miss, and gives fans an inside look into the next chapter of his story. The all-new track is an upbeat celebration of joy and fulfillment that comes from being with someone who makes every moment feel precious; about loving someone so deeply that you want to take the long way home, savoring every minute spent with them.

“This song captures the beauty of taking your time together, enjoying the journey rather than rushing to the destination. It’s a testament to the way love makes even the simplest moments feel extraordinary and worth cherishing,” says Miller.

The Welsh hitmaker once delighted fans with his first meet-and-greet in the Philippines back in September 2023, performing tracks like his Billboard-charting hit “Here’s Your Perfect.”, “No Matter What”, “Maybe Next Time”, and more.


Filipinos might remember his standout moments from his time in Manila—like hopping on a jeepney and savoring ice cream in the rain while filming to the tune of “Raining in Manila” by Lola Amour–moments that capture what it means to be Filipino.



Now, he's hinting at a possible return to Manila with an exciting Facebook post

“My new single is out in the Philippines… go stream ‘Long Way Home.’ See you soon!!!”


But before his potential return to Manila, Jamie Miller invites you to experience his latest single, “Long Way Home,” now available for streaming on all platforms. Don't forget to pre-add/pre-save his upcoming album,“Long Way Home”.

Notably, Jamie collaborated with Young K of South Korean rock band DAY6 and Filipino powerhouse Moira Dela Torre, who provided original verses on their featured tracks. Following the success of “Maybe Next Time,” Jamie released “No Matter What,” and “Empty Room” which have further propelled Jamie into the limelight with The Things I Left Unsaid EP amassing over 150M+ global streams and recognition on prominent playlists such as Spotify’s Pop Rising and Sad Hour, and Apple Music’s New In Pop and Sad Room.

Take care of your nerves – millions of people with peripheral neuropathy are undiagnosed and suffer in silence



Have you ever heard of peripheral neuropathy? In fact, millions of people suffer from this disease. Because of lack of awareness, some remain undiagnosed and untreated, suffering in silence for years. Peripheral neuropathy (PN) caused by nerve damage is one of the most common diseases of the peripheral nervous system, which controls all functions of our body, sensations in our hands, and movements of our muscles. Symptoms include numbness, tingling, prickling, and stabbing or burning pain mostly in the feet and hands.

Many people affected by the disease are not aware that their symptoms are due to PN as the disease often starts with mild symptoms and develops slowly, almost silently over long periods of time1.

At some point, symptoms become more severe and bothersome, affecting various aspects of a patient’s life. Without even realizing it, the patient will start losing mobility, struggle with performing simple day-to-day activities, have difficulties sleeping, or suffer injuries in their feet—all due to progressing nerve damage.

8 out of 10 patients remain undiagnosed

Unfortunately, PN awareness is low among the general population and many doctors. It is often only recognized and diagnosed at the late stages of the disease when nerve damage—that could otherwise have been avoided—has already progressed. Studies report, that approximately 80% of people, both in high- and low-income countries, living with diabetes and suffering from PN symptoms have not been diagnosed.2,3

This urgently needs to change. Raising awareness about the importance of nerve health and potential risk factors for nerve damage in the community and among physicians is key!

People particularly at risk of PN include diabetic patients, obese persons, chemotherapy or surgery patients, elderly, heavy drinkers, people with nutritional deficiencies, and smokers. The disease, however, can also affect younger and seemingly healthy people for no apparent reason.1 Often, people are not even aware that they are at risk as risk factors are not always obvious.

A new simple checklist will help to take care of peripheral nerves

It’s critical to watch out for symptoms and do an early check. There are many barriers preventing proper PN diagnosis.

On the patient’s side, these can include lack of awareness about PN and its risk factors, failing to notice the early signs, neglecting to see a doctor in time, and difficulties in verbalizing the symptoms. On the other side, physicians are often prevented from diagnosing PN patients due to crowded clinics, shortage of time, and lack of awareness and established diagnostic routine.4

That’s why Procter & Gamble, the makers of Vitamins B1+B6+B12 (Neurobion), collaborated with peripheral neuropathy experts from 10 countries and multiple specialties to devise a new tool—a screening questionnaire—that will help raise awareness about PN and shorten the journey to diagnosis.4

It’s the Neurometer and anyone can use it here or (https://pgamaphc.jebbit.com/s6xk2ac6) for free.

For people who don’t know about PN, Neurometer is already a first big step towards understanding this disease. All one must do is answer 5 simple questions to assess one’s nerve damage risks. If the result indicates PN, one can consult a doctor who can then use the Neurometer to diagnose PN with two simple, expert-recommended sensory tests.

With this questionnaire, patients can be empowered to take early action against PN and be treated more quickly, giving them greater chances of slowing down disease progression and avoiding long-term complications.

Neurometer is just one of the many efforts by Vitamin B1+B6+B12 (Neurobion) to make nerve care effortless, quick, and accessible for everybody.

If you think your nerves need care, do the questionnaire!


IF SYMPTOMS PERSIST, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.
