vivo Philippines is about to reveal something Ultra on May 23 via FB live

Tweet

What if a smartphone camera could approach the creative control of a professional production setup?

This is the idea surrounding the upcoming vivo X300 Ultra, the brand’s newest flagship set to be unveiled in the Philippines via Facebook livestream on May 23 at 6 PM.

A cinematic shift

Rather than refining conventional smartphone photography, the vivo X300 Ultra explores a more cinematic direction, drawing inspiration from professional production workflows where lighting, framing, and depth are intentionally crafted rather than simply captured.

This signals a shift in how mobile imaging is positioned: not just as a tool for documentation, but as a medium capable of more deliberate, visually expressive storytelling.

Before the official reveal, vivo has offered a glimpse into its imaging philosophy.

Powered by dual 200MP Triple ZEISS Master Prime Lenses, the vivo X300 Ultra highlights flagship ZEISS optics, advanced telephoto capability, and cinematic imaging depth. It reflects vivo’s continued push to bridge smartphone convenience with the precision and discipline of production-level visual creation.

The direction raises a central question for creators and tech enthusiasts: how close can mobile imaging get to the creative flexibility of a pro-level camera system used in production work?

Watch the livestream

The answer will be revealed live with top celebrity and fashion photographer BJ Pascual, demonstrating the vivo X300 Ultra's imaging power through a photoshoot with influential superstars Anne Curtis and Marian Rivera.

The public is invited to tune in to the official livestream on May 23, 2026, at 6 PM via the vivo Philippines Facebook page, and be among the first to witness what “Ultra” truly means for the next generation of mobile imaging.

One Hub, Endless Possibilities: How OPPO Reno15, Watch S, and Pad 5 Simplify Daily Life and Keep Users Connected

Tweet

Let’s be honest: our lives are scattered across way too many screens. We have a gadget for every little thing we do, but instead of making life easier, it usually just feels like a constant, disconnected struggle. The OPPO Reno15 Series 5G is here to fix that clutter. When paired with the OPPO Watch S and OPPO Pad 5, your tech stops acting like a bunch of individual tools and starts working like one cohesive team.

Think of the OPPO Reno15 Series 5G as your command center. Whether you’re glancing at a text on your watch during a meeting or resuming play on a video exactly where you left off on your tablet, everything stays perfectly in sync. No more emailing files to yourself or digging through your pockets every time your phone buzzes. It’s a streamlined setup that actually keeps up with your pace, making your digital life feel organized and effortless.

Keeping Up with Notifications and Music

Having to fish your phone out of your pocket every time it buzzes is a chore, but with the OPPO Watch S, everything you need is right on your wrist. Whether you’re mid-sprint to a meeting or just have your hands full with coffee, you can glance at calls and messages without breaking your stride.

Even your soundtrack is on remote control. Start your playlist on your OPPO Reno15 Series 5G and use your watch to skip tracks or crank up the volume. It’s like having a digital baton for your life’s background music.

Fitness Without the Fuss

Closing your rings shouldn't feel like a math project. The OPPO Watch S tracks your workouts and steps automatically, then whisks all that data over to your Reno15 Series 5G. You get a clear, birds-eye view of your progress in one spot which means no more toggling between five different apps just to see if you hit your goals.

With over 100 sports modes, it’s built to keep up with whatever you’re into, while professional modes for 12 popular sports deliver more precise tracking and deeper insights to help you improve with intention. Runners in particular get even more to work with thanks to Pro Running Mode featuring dual-band GPS for better accuracy, posture analysis to refine form, fat burn tracking, and lactate threshold insights for smarter, data-driven training.

Creating and Viewing Content Across Devices

When it’s time to move from "quick snap" to "masterpiece," the hand-off is seamless. Shoot high-res content on your OPPO Reno15 Series 5G, then jump over to the OPPO Pad 5 to see it pop on that massive, 12.1-inch 2.8K display.

Need to get productive? The Pad 5’s AI-powered note-taking is a lifesaver for sketching out ideas or polishing documents. You capture the spark on your phone and refine the fire on your tablet, making it the ultimate tag-team for getting things done.

A More Connected Everyday Setup

At the end of the day, the OPPO Reno15 Series 5G, Watch S, and Pad 5 aren't just gadgets, but an ecosystem that actually works with one another. If you’re tired of the "multi-device juggle," this setup is your shortcut to a smoother, more connected day.

Caritas Manila and the Onocom Group marked a historic milestone in Philippine construction and humanitarian innovation with the groundbreaking ceremony for the country’s first 3D-printed building at the Caritas Manila Headquarters in Paco, Manila last May 20, 2026.

The multi-purpose facility, donated through the collaborative efforts of Onocom Japan, Onocom Philippines, and Providere Onocom, highlights how emerging construction technologies can be utilized to support social development initiatives.

The initiative introduces large-scale 3D concrete printing technology to the Philippines. By using automated systems that build structures layer by layer, the technology offers a more efficient construction process while minimizing material waste and improving precision.

Caritas Manila, the lead social service and development ministry of the Archdiocese of Manila, was chosen as the beneficiary of the project in recognition of its long-standing commitment to serving vulnerable communities through education, disaster response, livelihood programs, and poverty alleviation efforts.

The Onocom Group is recognized for integrating Japanese engineering standards, innovation, and modern construction practices into sustainable and people-centered developments since 1934.

The donated 3D-printed structure is envisioned to serve as a venue for training programs, religious activities, social development initiatives, and disaster response operations.

For Caritas Manila, the partnership reflects its continuing mission to bring hope and opportunities to underserved communities through innovative and sustainable programs.

“We hope that this multipurpose center brings people together to appreciate both charity and innovation,” said Rev. Fr. Anton C.T. Pascual, Executive Director of Caritas Manila.

As construction begins on the country’s first 3D-printed building, the project stands as proof that technology can become a powerful instrument for social good.
