One Charge, Endless Power: realme Teases the C100 Series with Up to 8000mAh Titan Battery

realme Philippines is gearing up for the launch of the realme C100 Series on June 18, and ahead of the big reveal, the brand is giving a first look at what the lineup is all about. Anchored on the tagline “One Charge, Endless Power,” the C100 Series is built around two things Filipinos consistently look for in a smartphone: a battery that goes the distance and a build that holds up over time.

The realme C100 comes equipped with an 8000mAh Titan Battery, while the realme C100i carries a 7000mAh cell. Both are designed to deliver up to 1.5 days of use on a single charge, but what stands out is their long-term battery health – the realme C100 is rated to retain at least 80% capacity after 7 years of daily use, and the C100i after 6 years. The brand attributes this to its highly efficient energy consumption technology, which reduces battery wear over time without compromising on performance.

On the durability front, both models come with realme’s ArmorShell™ Protection and have been certified under the MIL-STD-810H military-grade shock resistance standard, with a verified drop resistance of up to 2 meters. The realme C100 takes protection further with IP69 Pro rating, making it resistant to dust, submersion, and even high-pressure water jets. The realme C100i is rated IP64, covering everyday splashes and dust exposure.

The Series also comes in a range of colorways. The realme C100 will be available in Glory White, Endurance Brown, and Victory Purple, all featuring realme’s Blooming Design, a shimmer finish crafted with micron-level sculpting that shifts with light. Meanwhile, the realme C100i comes in Dawn Purple and Dusk Gray.

The realme C100 Series will be officially unveiled on June 18 via a livestream on realme’s official Facebook page. Pricing and full details will be announced on launch day.

vivo V70 captures outdoor adventures like scenes from old memory

Some trips become memorable not because of where you went, but because of who you were with.

For a group of friends navigating adulthood after college, a spontaneous day in the Philippines' popular amusement park, Enchanted Kingdom, felt like stepping back into simpler times, the kind filled with endless laughter, blurry group photos, chaotic rides, and carefree moments that once defined their university days.

It's this kind of memory that the vivo V70's Film Camera Mode 3.0 is designed to preserve, not just what happened, but how it felt in the moment. 

     

   Nostalgia Filter                                           Pack Film Filter

Film Camera Mode 3.0 transformed ordinary amusement park scenes into frames that felt lifted from a memory book. Under natural daylight, afternoon sunlight took on a softer glow, vibrant attractions were rendered in warm vintage tones, and candid moments carried a natural, film-like character.

Throughout the day, Enchanted Kingdom became the perfect backdrop for testing the feature. Friends posed between rides, shared spontaneous laughs, and revisited the energy they once had as students.

   Cold Film Filter     

  Sunshine Filter

  Nostalgia Filter

Whether using Pack Film, Classic Negative, Positive Film, Cold Film, Nostalgia, or Sunshine filters, each frame carries a distinct personality while preserving the emotion behind the experience.

The Pack Film filter delivered playful retro energy, while Classic Negative added timeless depth and contrast. Positive Film offered a bright and cheerful interpretation of the day, while Cold Film created a more cinematic and reflective mood. For those seeking a stronger vintage feel, Nostalgia recreated the warmth of printed photographs, while Sunshine enhanced natural light with a soft, glowing finish.

Together, these filters allow users to choose not just how a scene looks, but how they want it to be remembered.

What makes the vivo V70 stand out is how Film Camera Mode 3.0 understands that some memories are better felt than perfectly seen. Even the beginning of a trip feels like a treasured memory waiting to be revisited.

Instead of simply documenting reality, the vivo V70 romanticizes it, turning ordinary outdoor adventures into scenes that feel deeply personal, cinematic, and timeless.

Because sometimes, the best photos are the ones that bring you back to who you were during your old college days: innocent, loud, spontaneous, and surrounded by the right people.

Coca-Cola Philippines Wins Dual Honors at Synergy-YouGov Awards, Topping Trust and Value Rankings Among Filipino Consumers

Coca-Cola Philippines receives the company’s awards during the Synergy-YouGov Awards night in Bonifacio Global City.

 Coca-Cola Philippines received two recognitions at the Synergy-YouGov Awards held on April 24, 2026, securing the #1 spot in Net Reputation among Sustainability Advocates and emerging as the #1 Most Improved in Net Perceived Value in the Non-Alcoholic Beverages sector.

The accolades underscore Coca-Cola Philippines’ position as a trusted and relevant brand in the country built on consistent actions, strong community connections, and a focus on delivering quality and value in everyday moments.

Trust built through consistent action

Coca-Cola Philippines ranked first in Net Reputation among sustainability advocates, a measure that reflects whether people feel proud or hesitant to be associated with a brand. The result underscores the role of consistency and accountability in building trust.

Maria Christine Ponce-Garcia, Director for Public Affairs, Sustainability and Communications at Coca-Cola Philippines, said the recognition speaks to something the company has long worked toward.

“This award isn't just recognition. It's a reflection of trust. The kind that takes years to build and speaks louder than any campaign ever could. To be seen as a company people are proud to be part of — that means everything," Ponce-Garcia said after receiving the award.

Coca-Cola Philippines’ sustainability work—including waste management, water stewardship, and wellbeing initiatives—is central to that trust. The recognition highlights how these efforts contribute to stronger credibility and long-term relationships with consumers. 

"Being a trusted company means contributing in ways that are meaningful not just to our business, but to the communities we serve," Ponce-Garcia added.

Value rooted in everyday Filipino Life

Coca-Cola Philippines also ranked as the Most Improved brand in Net Perceived Value in the Non-Alcoholic Beverages sector, recording the highest year-on-year improvement between 2024 and 2025. Net Perceived Value measures whether consumers believe a brand offers genuine value for money in terms of meaningfully delivering on what it promises, not just its price point.

Ponce-Garcia said value is about more than the product itself: Value was never about the price tag. It's about what people feel when they choose you — the confidence that they made the right call. That means delivering quality without compromise, staying within reach, and being there for the everyday moments that shape people's lives.

In the Philippines, this connection is shaped by strong local relevance. Coca-Cola continues to engage communities and remain part of daily routines, reinforcing its role beyond refreshment.

“We believe value is built by consistently delivering what people expect, showing up in ways that are reliable, relevant, and part of daily life. That’s what allows Coca-Cola to be not just a product, but part of everyday moments, shared meals, celebrations, and simple, everyday connections,” Ponce-Garcia noted.

Continuing to earn trust and deliver value

Presented by Synergy Market Research + Strategic Consultancy, the Synergy-YouGov Awards combine Synergy’s brand and communications expertise with YouGov’s data and insights platform to measure brand health and perception, including reputation, value, and consumer sentiment. These rankings are grounded in consumer data, reflecting how people assess brands over time.

Coca-Cola Philippines’ consistent efforts in sustainability and visible action for community wellbeing contribute to strong positive sentiment within these categories.

The dual recognition also strengthens Coca-Cola Philippines’ focus on trust and value as core to its relationship with consumers. It reflects the collective efforts of its employees, partners, and communities in delivering consistent impact.

For Ponce-Garcia, the awards are an affirmation and a commitment: "We know that trust is earned and that we must continue to prove it. We will continue to keep improving, to keep listening, and to continue delivering value for our consumers and for society, to refresh the world and make a difference."

Eastern Communications Champions Sustainability with Globe and InfiniVAN at PDSCN Mangrove Tree Planting Activity

 

Eastern Communications, alongside the Philippine Domestic Submarine Cable Network (PDSCN) consortium, participated in a mangrove tree-planting activity in Purok Calubay on May 22. Conducted as part of the consortium’s post-Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) commitments, this initiative marks a significant milestone in the organization’s continuous support towards sustainable development and climate action. 

Organized by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources - Environmental Management Bureau (DENR-EMB) in partnership with Bago City LGU, CENRO Bago, and other stakeholders, the initiative highlighted the importance of safeguarding coastal communities.

The morningactivity opened with an orientation led by Bago City Environment and Management Office (CEMO) Representative Rex Magbanua, who emphasized the critical role mangroves play in protecting coastal communities from storm surges and coastal erosion. He cited the impact of Super Typhoon Odette in 2021, which heavily affected Bacolod and the rest of Negros Occidental, as a reminder of the importance of strengthening climate resilience initiatives.    

Mangrove tree planting is a community-driven initiative that helps protect coastlines, support marine biodiversity, and strengthen climate resilience. Through initiatives like these, organizations contribute to environmental protection efforts while supporting vulnerable coastal communities and advancing meaningful Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs. 

For communities such as Purok Calubay, mangroves serve as nature-based solutions that help mitigate flooding and soil erosion while supporting local livelihoods, including fisheries and other coastal resources. 

"This initiative reflects our belief that creating meaningful impact goes beyond providing reliable and responsive connectivity," said Jed Estanislao, Chief Marketing and Experience Officer of Eastern Communications. "By supporting sustainability-driven partnerships and community-centered programs, we aim to help strengthen environmental resilience, empower local communities, and contribute to long-term sustainable development."

Through initiatives like the mangrove tree-planting activity, Eastern Communications continues to support programs that create positive social and environmental impact. As the company expands its presence across the Philippines, it remains committed to combining future-ready connectivity solutions with efforts that create lasting value for both people and the planet.
