HUAWEI Remains at the Forefront of Mobile Imaging with the Industry’s First Switchable Dual Telephoto Camera on the HUAWEI Pura 80 Series, Coming Soon to the Philippines

HUAWEI ushers in the dawn of a new era of smartphone photography excellence as it introduces groundbreaking mobile imaging technology and the industry’s first Switchable Dual Telephoto Camera on the new HUAWEI Pura 80 Series. 

As the latest evolution of the HUAWEI Pura Series, the newest smartphone lineup embodies the series’ signature fusion of mobile photography and aesthetic design. It continues to set a bold, new standard in pioneering photography, fashion design and unique style. 

HUAWEI Pura Series: A Legacy of Style and Substance 

The HUAWEI Pura Series, earlier known as the HUAWEI P Series, has long stood at the forefront of innovative photography technology and artistic expression. Debuted in 2012, HUAWEI developed to challenge the conventions with a focus on slim silhouettes and camera innovation. 

The series quickly evolved into a symbol of mobile photography innovation with landmark features such as the HUAWEI P9’s mono-color dual-lens technology, the HUAWEI P20’s revolutionary Super Night Mode, the HUAWEI P30’s pioneering Periscope Tele Lens, the HUAWEI P40’s unmatched 100x SuperZoom Array, the HUAWEI P50’s 10-Channel Multi-Spectrum Sensor, and the HUAWEI P60’s Ultra Lighting Macro Telephoto Camera. Each generation reaffirms the series’ position as a leading figure in the evolution of mobile photography, setting new benchmarks and propelling the future of imaging innovation. 

The HUAWEI P Series has also led industry’s design trends. It emerged as the industry's thinnest smartphone, which utilized the industry's first metal diamond-cut design and innovative twilight colour design, and was the first to adopt the nano-tech ceramic design as well as its unique Rococo Pearl colour. The series continues to refresh new heights of technological aesthetics.

In 2024, HUAWEI announced the renaming of the P Series to “HUAWEI Pura Series,” which marked a new era of elevated design and intelligent imaging. The HUAWEI Pura 70 Series became the first lineup to launch under the new name, debuting with the elegant Forward Symbol Design, Ultra Lighting Pop-out Camera powered by XMAGE, and the groundbreaking Ultra Speed Snapshot.

The HUAWEI Pura Series legacy as a pioneer of mobile photography innovation advances with the HUAWEI Pura 80 Series. The latest evolution of the series seamlessly fuses industry-leading mobile imaging with the sleek “Fashion Next” aesthetic that defines the HUAWEI Pura Series. It takes the experience of capturing moving images to new heights, transforming every frame into a statement of artistry and innovation.

Dual Lenses, Boundless Vision

HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra first Switchable Dual Telephoto Camera

The HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra breaks new ground for mobile imaging technology with the debut of the industry’s first Switchable Dual Telephoto Camera, which comes with a built-in symmetrical shading mechanism — a first in smartphone imaging. The HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra also fuses a 3.7x Mid-telephoto lens and a 9.4x Ultra-telephoto lens into one unit, supported by a 1/1.28-inch Ultra Large Sensor. This powers the industry’s largest telephoto light intake and results in cinematic portraits and dramatic close-ups with remarkable depth and razor-sharp precision.

Meticulously designed, the switchable dual-lens system operates with seamless precision, effortlessly transitioning between focal lengths through micron-level motor control. Housing over 140 finely tuned components, the mechanism ensures fluid, reliable movement within a remarkably compact structure. This achieves a 129% increase in light path compared to conventional telephoto modules. 

Meanwhile, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro introduces a powerful Ultra Lighting Macro Telephoto Camera that redefines the possibilities of close-range mobile photography. With a Super Close Focus of up to 5cm, this lets users explore intricate textures and tiny subjects with extraordinary clarity. Its large F2.1 aperture dramatically enhances light intake, capturing 40% more light for vivid detail even in challenging low-light conditions. Whether it’s the sparkle of city lights in the distance or the fine textures of a subject up close, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro brings every scene to life with unmatched sharpness and depth. 

Mastering Light and Shadow in Every Pixel

HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra 1-inch Ultra Lighting HDR Camera

HUAWEI continues to redefine mobile photography with the HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra, introducing a suite of breakthrough technologies that push imaging to unprecedented heights. The HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra is fitted with the industry-leading 1-inch Ultra Lighting HDR Camera, equipped with a sensor that boasts a full-well electron capacity of 400,000 e⁻ per pixel, which makes it up to 7x greater than its predecessor. This exceptional photon-capturing ability allows the camera to preserve every nuance of light and shadow, freezing fast motion and extreme lighting transitions with remarkable precision.

With HUAWEI’s real-time TCG-HDR technology, which simultaneously processes three high-capacity signals across different light zones, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra achieves the industry's highest 16EV, 15x greater than before. From harsh daylight to low-light cityscapes, the device ensures impeccable exposure, vivid detail, and rich tonal accuracy in every shot, cementing HUAWEI’s leadership in smartphone imaging innovation.

Paired with the AI Cinematic Engine, the 1-inch Ultra Lighting HDR Camera delivers breathtaking video with natural contrast and lifelike color reproduction. Even in scenes with extreme lighting disparities, overexposed highlights are recovered and deep shadows retain rich detail to deliver footage that mirrors the nuances of the human eye. This gives a true “what you see is what you get” performance. This integration of advanced optics and intelligent processing sets a new benchmark for smartphone cinematography. 

Meanwhile, HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro features a 1-inch Ultra Lighting Camera, achieving the industry's largest main camera light intake. Combined with the Ultra Chroma Camera for accurate night scene colour reproduction, it delivers ultra-clear and brilliant nightscapes even in low-light environments, precisely restoring night scene colors and atmosphere.

Iconic, Brilliant Design with Uncompromising Durability

In true HUAWEI Pura Series fashion, the the HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra and HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro embody sophistication with a refined, dazzling Forward Symbol design, inspired by the timeless sunray motifs found in exquisite jewelry and luxury timepieces. The HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra, which comes in Prestige Gold and Golden Black, has a golden ring that encircles the camera and forms the iconic forward brand emblem and serves as a bold, visual centerpiece. 

The HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro, available in Glazed Red, Glazed White, and Glazed Black, pairs sculpted curves with elegant hues inspired by monochrome glaze, perfectly accented by the glazed texture design. Its innovative design language unifies form and meaning, seamlessly combining the glaze texture of a timeless monochrome glaze with innovative craftsmanship to capture the pure aesthetics of “Grace of Glaze.” 

Both devices combine aesthetic finesse with advanced durability. The HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra is reinforced with the 2nd Gen Crystal Armor Kunlun Glass for up to 16x greater scratch resistance and up to 25x enhanced drop resistance. On the other hand, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro is made with 2nd Gen KUNLUN Glass, which offers up to 20x improved drop resistance. With IP69 and IP68 dust and water resistance, the HUAWEI Pura 80 Ultra and HUAWEI Pura 80 Pro blend elegant design and tough resilience to perfection.

Converge Empowers Pasay City Students with Online Privacy Awareness Program

The Pasay city school is the third learning institution engaged by Converge for its Project PIGLET initiative, which was launched in 2024. 

Leading Philippine broadband and technology provider Converge ICT Solutions Inc. has once again staged another session of its Project PIGLET (Privacy Integration through Guided Learning of Emerging Technologies) initiative, in its continuing effort to educate the youth on protecting themselves online. 

Spearheaded by the Corporate Governance and Data Privacy (CGDP) Group of Converge, Project PIGLET was recently conducted for eighty, Grade 6 students of the Timoteo Paez Elementary School in Malibay, Pasay City. Notably, twenty parents also attended the program to hear from the company’s privacy officers on how to guide their children online. 

Parents of elementary students also took part in the learning session, exhibiting their commitment and partnership with the school in protecting their children’s welfare online. 

“As a fiber broadband company, and especially now as we evolve in becoming a technology company, we hold fast to our advocacy on safe and responsible use of technology. Artificial intelligence, for example, is a transformative tool that unlocks so many opportunities, but in the wrong hands they may be used to endanger and intensify crimes such as OSAEC (online sexual abuse and exploitation of children,” noted Atty. Laurice Esteban-Tuason, Converge Corporate Compliance and Data Protection Officer. 

“This program is our way of giving back to children, parents, and teachers especially with everyone having gadgets today. The internet and these gadgets are crucial tools for learning, especially during the pandemic. But we have to acknowledge that they pose dangers as well, and based on studies, children are the most vulnerable to them. That’s why we target them as our audience,” underlined Converge Data Privacy Manager Atty. Janine Villabeto - Solete.

Compliance officer for Privacy Larry Caduada led the story-telling session of a space-themed adventure with ‘Captain Conrad’ - the Converge mascot - through the ‘Internet Universe’. 

Compliance Officer for Privacy Larry Caduada imparted lessons on creating safe online practices through a fun and interactive story-telling session. The narrative follows the adventures of ‘Captain Conrad’ who patrols the internet and protects the ‘Astro Friends’ (young internet users) from malicious agents online.  

“Now that we’re living in a digital world, our children need to be protected. The risks for them  now are not just for their physical safety but psychological and emotional, which can be exposed when they’re online and interacting with so many agents. We’re grateful Project PIGLET was able to explain how they can navigate the online space, through story-telling,” said Timoteo Paez Elementary School Principal Jeanne Rejuso.

In recognition of this advocacy push to teach the youth about responsible internet use, Project PIGLET was recently named a finalist to the National Privacy Commission’s Privacy Initiative of the Year, announced during the Privacy Awareness Week in June. 

The staging of Project PIGLET is just one in a series of activities held in celebration of Privacy Awareness Week (July 14 to 25) at Converge. Executives of Converge conveyed their messages of support and continuing commitment to data privacy at the opening activity held July 14, followed by games, a photo booth, and food carts for employees.

Converge's Caloocan Data Center: First in PH to Achieve Full Uptime Institute Tier III Certification

The Converge Caloocan Data Center is a 300-rack, 3-megawatt facility that will soon house the firm’s assets to support its critical business functions. 

Leading Philippine fiber broadband and technology provider Converge ICT Solutions Inc. has secured full certification as a Tier III facility for its Caloocan Data Center under global data center authority Uptime Institute.

The latest certification validates that the state-of-the-art data center in Metro Manila has been constructed, and operates according to high-level design requirements, making it the first data center in the Philippines to be fully approved by Uptime Institute as Tier III, both in design and build.

Likewise, it is the first and only infrastructure in the Philippines with Tier III Certification for Constructed Facility.

The company’s Caloocan Data Center is a 300-rack, 3-megawatt facility that will soon house the firm’s assets to support its critical business functions. 

In February, the infrastructure was awarded a Tier III certification for its design documents which affirms that its blueprint meets the redundancy requirements of a rated-three data center. The hub completed its construction in March and has already been powered up for operational testing.

“With our Caloocan Data Center having been fully certified as Tier III, now both for design and for construction, we are on track to building a digital ecosystem that ensures the highest levels of reliability and security for our network. This further enhances our infrastructure to support our core assets and services, ultimately enabling us to deliver seamless data delivery to both our residential and enterprise customers nationwide and around the world,” said Converge CEO and Co-Founder Dennis Anthony Uy.

The Converge Caloocan Data Center is the first and, currently, the only infrastructure in the Philippines with Tier III Certification for Constructed Facility.

The Tier III certification for Constructed Facility has lifetime validity.  

To accommodate the growing demand for content and cloud services, Converge is in the process of building up its data center footprint, employing a multi-edge strategy, which involves operating multiple smaller data centers across the edge of its network. 

In line with this, a more extensive 1,200-rack data center project is also underway in Pampanga. Aside from supporting the firm’s internal operations, the said digital hub is expected to serve enterprise clients across different sectors.

Apart from these two data centers, two significant international cable systems are slated to be activated this year for Converge, which will enhance the company’s capacity to serve residential, enterprise, and wholesale customers, while enabling innovation across industries. 

These are the Bifrost Cable System which directly links Singapore to the US West Coast with a landing point in Davao and the Southeast Asia Hong Kong-Hainan Express Cable System (SEA-H2X) which connects Hong Kong and Hainan, China to the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore.

Uptime Institute serves as the leading global authority on digital infrastructure performance, focusing on the reliability, sustainability, and efficiency of data centers. Having issued more than 3,500 awards across 118 countries, Uptime Tier Certification is acknowledged as the global benchmark for data center design, construction, and operations.

OPPO Releases 2024 Sustainability Report, Reaching its Climate Target Two Years Earlier than Planned

OPPO has released its 2024 Sustainability Report, marking its fifth consecutive year of publishing the annual report. OPPO announces in the report that the company has reached the peak of carbon emissions across its own operations in 2022, two years ahead of its original climate target. As a global technology company with operations spanning over 70 countries and regions, OPPO ranks as the world’s fourth largest smartphone brand for four consecutive years. The report also outlines OPPO’s efforts and achievements in building a more inclusive and sustainable future by focusing on the following five areas: virtuous innovation, environmental protection, ecosystem engagement, operations and compliance, and caring for employees. ‌ Driven by its brand renewal – “Make Your Moment”, OPPO will propel sustainability forward to create meaningful impact through green innovation and responsible technology.

Making its Operation and Products Greener BOLD 

Following its 2023 commitment to achieving carbon peak by 2024 and carbon neutral by 2050 across its own operations, OPPO has been actively exploring new models for reducing emission intensity. Many initiatives have shown results, with OPPO's operational carbon emissions falling in both 2023 and 2024. OPPO achieved a 3.2% year-on-year reduction in Scope 1 & 2 emissions in 2024, equivalent to the annual sequestration capacity of about 514,320 mature trees. By mobilizing its supply chain partners, OPPO reduced Scope 3 emissions by 9.3% compared to the previous year.

Beyond carbon reduction efforts, OPPO also implements green management practices across the entire lifecycle of its products. In 2024, OPPO implemented lightweight packaging design across its entire smartphone product line, reducing paper consumption by 10 tons per million units—equivalent to preserving approximately 200 trees. The company also adopts recycled materials made from plant residues such as sugarcane and bamboo to replace traditional paper materials. In Europe, the proportion of recycled material content in mobile phone box packaging increased from 45% to 55%. Furthermore, OPPO integrates innovative engineering solutions to improve the durability of its products. The OPPO A3 Pro, for example, uses Damage-proof 360° Armour Body to improve drop protection and enhance everyday durability. 

OPPO implements green management practices across the lifecycle of its products. 
 

Virtuous Innovation Simplifies Daily Lives BOLD 

OPPO maintains technology and innovation as a strategic priority, with a global portfolio of over 113,000 patent applications, with 91% of them being invention patents. Driven by its brand mission "Technology for Mankind, Kindness for the World", OPPO is committed to making technology accessible to everyone. OPPO has also introduced AI functions across its entire smartphone product line, bringing over 100 AI features to 50 million users worldwide. Through its commitment to inclusive innovation, OPPO has developed accessibility features including real-time speech-to-text conversion, content magnification, and adaptive color correction, empowering users with hearing or visual impairments to fully engage with digital technology.

Health is another area where OPPO is leveraging its extensive resources and innovation to create more user-centric products and experiences. OPPO smartwatches integrate the proprietary “Health Insights” feature, which uses sensor data and AI algorithms to monitor vital signs like heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation, and sleep in real time. Combined with temperature change analysis, sleep quality analysis, and other features, the OPPO smartwatches provide users with personalized health risk evaluation and suggestions. Notably, OPPO’s AI-powered blood pressure classification algorithm enables continuous, unobtrusive hypertension risk assessment – particularly for young/middle-aged essential hypertension cases. This constitutes the world’s largest real-world study on unobtrusive blood pressure risk prediction.

OPPO health management toolkit

Engaging with Local Communities as Corporate Citizen BOLD 

In 2024, OPPO donated more than 450 million RMB to social and public welfare organizations, implementing a range of initiatives in areas such as environment, culture, sports and education that help to build more sustainable communities.

In collaboration with Discovery Channel, OPPO has launched the Culture in a Shot Initiative since 2024, which aims to showcase the cultural diversity through imaging technology. With its theme "Portraits of Legacy" in 2024 and “Celebrate the Moment” in 2025, the initiative spotlights inheritors of intangible cultural heritage, and stories of festivals as well as celebrations across 15 countries. In 2024, OPPO also partnered with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to donate 1,000 OPPO tablets, supporting youth education and cultural development in Africa and Asia.

Through its partnership with Discovery Channel, OPPO is celebrating unique cultural diversity around the world

As the Official Smartphone Product Partner of the UEFA Champions League, OPPO has been investing in the development of football culture both on and off the pitch. Through programs like local pitch renovations, equipment donations, and professional training courses, OPPO is providing the support and resources for young footballers from countries including Brazil, Egypt, and Mexico to pursue their football dreams and reach their potential.

Guided by its vision of becoming a sustainable company that contributes to a better world, OPPO will continue to advance sustainable development through technological innovation, creating a resilient technological ecosystem with global partners.

Staying effortless on the go: Smart travel tips from frequent flyers

Bianca Elizalde

Some travelers live by the itinerary. Others embrace the unplanned. But the most seasoned ones know—it’s not just the destination that shapes the experience, it’s how seamlessly you move through it.

For wellness advocate Bianca Elizalde, travel is a way to reset. It’s how she reconnects with herself and the world, often finding clarity in unfamiliar places and new environments. “Besides my family and children, there is nothing that awakens and inspires me more than being somewhere beyond my comfort zone,” she shares. Capturing these moments through her lens is part of the experience—and with strong, reliable data roaming, she can effortlessly share her journey while staying present. Her tip: be intentional with how you document. It’s easy to get caught up in taking photos and videos. Find the balance—capture what matters, but don’t miss the moments happening right in front of you. 

Nix AlaƱon

For interior designer Nix AlaƱon, peace of mind is essential. He’s hands-on when it comes to his home—not just in curation, but in its day-to-day upkeep and care. Yet when he’s away, he travels worry-free knowing that with just one call, he can arrange for trusted home services to manage routine maintenance or have someone care for his furbabies. It’s that thoughtful layer of support that lets him stay present and fully enjoy the journey. His mantra: travel like you live—surrounded by thoughtful choices, with the essentials always taken care of.

And then there are those who thrive on spontaneity. Content creator Katrina Loring-Bondoc planned a last-minute trip to Hong Kong to surprise her brother for his 18th birthday. “Planning on-the-go and making last-minute reservations was so easy,” she says. Her advice? Have the basics covered—reliable travel support—so you can act quickly and enjoy the moment without second-guessing the details. Whether it’s booking last-minute restaurant reservations or making changes on the fly, having that kind of support lets her say yes with confidence.

These travelers have different perspectives, but share the same secret: they’ve taken the complexity out of travel—allowing planning to happen seamlessly in the background, so they can stay focused on the experience.

Making travel moments seamlessly possible

From curated trips to spontaneous escapes, the luxury of travel isn’t always about where you’re going—but about how effortlessly you get there. All three rely on Smart Infinity, the premium postpaid brand of Smart.  On top of unlimited local calls, texts, and data, it comes with generous monthly consumables—which, when factored in, add even more value to the plan, as they can be used for app subscriptions or to top up additional roaming data once the plan’s built-in allocation has been used. Smart Infinity quietly works in the background—supporting the journeys of those who travel with purpose and style, even providing members with international airport lounge access for added comfort and ease through every leg of their journey.

At the heart of it is the Infinity Worldwide Concierge—a 24/7 service that assists members with everything from everyday tasks to the most extraordinary travel and lifestyle requests. From booking last-minute flights and assisting with visa applications, to reserving tables at Michelin-starred restaurants and securing hard-to-get tickets to concerts or Broadway shows— the Infinity Concierge is designed to simplify your routines and elevate your lifestyle—so even the smallest moments feel thoughtfully taken care of.

As the summer travel season inspires both spontaneous adventures and thoughtfully planned getaways, Smart Infinity has brought the experience even closer to home. Last April 12, it launched its first in-store Infinity Day—a monthly activation designed to give visitors a glimpse into the Infinity lifestyle. Guests at participating stores enjoyed thoughtfully curated refreshments, elegant giveaways, and a preview of the perks and privileges that make every Infinity journey seamless from the very start.

With Infinity Day set to happen every 8th of the month, Smart Infinity continues to engage would-be travelers through exclusive experiences, personalized assistance, and a lifestyle designed for movement. This is all part of the Smart Infinity Membership Club—a program that goes beyond mobile service. It’s a true conveyor of premium lifestyle, designed for those who live intentionally and travel exceptionally.

Because from curated trips to last-minute escapes, the real luxury of travel isn’t always about where you’re going—but how effortlessly you get there.

Call the Infinity Worldwide Concierge at (02) 8687 8338 or sign up now if you’re not yet a member. To learn more about the Smart Infinity Membership Club, visit smart.com.ph/Postpaid/infinity or drop by any Smart Store nationwide.
