vivo’s Advice to Fresh Graduates: Navigating the World of Work with Confidence

The next generation of young blood will soon enter the workforce, with some schools already holding graduation rites this month. College and senior high school graduates are asking themselves existential questions like what to do next with their lives. But they wouldn’t be alone: Many in the workforce are also thinking about the career path to pursue.

As with any new experience, navigating the world of work is equally thrilling and scary, humbling and enlightening. To make the most out of this journey, you will need a reliable partner that can always bring out the best in you, like the latest smartphone from vivo, the vivo V27 Series. Boasting the innovative Aura Portrait Algorithm with Sony IMX 766V – a customized camera sensor for vivo, and a flagship performance frontlined by its 12GB RAM that can run up to 30 apps smoothly, learn more how this premium device can guide you towards your next big step ahead.

Highlighting the Me in Resume: Keep it Clean and Straightforward

Your resume, from the content to the overall look, is a reflection of yourself. As a general rule, it’s best to keep it clean and straightforward while also reflective of your personality or character. If you’re a fresh grad, highlight academic performance and extra-curricular activities such as seminars, leadership conferences, trainings and accomplishments. But maybe there’s no need to include awards won from fourth grade. If you already have previous work experience, highlight work accomplishments, skills developed and trainings completed. Feel free to get a tad personal and mention your interests as long as they are related to the job or will not make you look bad in the end. One thing to remember: You want the employer to know your qualifications, not your life history so 10 pages of resume will not cut it.

Take a lesson from the vivo V27 Series about the minimalist approach. From its camera layout, color to overall build, vivo knows when to show more by doing less. With their slim and lightweight frame at 7.36mm for vivo V27 5G variant and 7.7mm for its vivo V27e variant, the vivo V27 Series is built to go with you anywhere you go but is sturdy enough for all your needs. The uncomplicated and straightforward camera layout is a testament to vivo’s commitment to balancing functionality and beauty as inspired by the Bauhaus design philosophy. Of course, with the Photochromic 2.0 technology that changes your phone case’s color when placed under the sun, you really don’t need to complicate the design as that color-changing technology is impressive enough!

Go Hard on Your Soft Skills: Communicate Your Accomplishments and Skills

Any reasonable recruiter or employer will not expect an extensive body of work from a fresh grad, so don’t get stressed out if you cannot present an impressive portfolio just yet. Instead, highlight your school accomplishments and other skills. Communication, problem solving, adaptability and teamwork may not be as quantifiable as good grades, but they are just as, if not more, important in a professional setting. Cite examples of when you took the initiative to lead an important group project or event. Tell stories of how you showed integrity or perseverance during your internship and paint a picture of how your experiences can be of use to the company you’re applying to.

The same goes for applicants moving from one job to the next. Highlight the soft skills.

Overall, reliability is what people are looking for. Just like with the vivo V27 Series. With its 12GB+8GB Extended RAM and 256GB ROM, you can take your organization skills notches higher. Manage and maintain your work files with ease with bigger storage space. Tick off everything on your to-do lists with its all-day battery with 66W FastCharge technology that powers up the phone to 50 percent in just 19 minutes.

Work Has Gone Digital and So Should You: Supplement Soft Skills with Digital Capabilities

These days, there is no job that doesn’t require some form of digital skill. Supplement your soft skills with more digital capabilities. Start looking for free digital courses. Most courses have flexible schedule and will let you manage your own time, including assignments and projects.

After a series of interviews and aptitude tests, you finally bagged that first job. If your work involves handling content or you simply want to capture moments in your new world, the vivo V27 Series packs powerful cameras that go beyond megapixel sizes. Powered by the innovative Aura Portrait Algorithm, this smartphone is every new employee’s partner in taking cinematic and picturesque videos and pictures, perfect not only for documenting your journey but also for impressing colleagues with your IG reels and Facebook stories.

With the vivo V27 Series, you can produce a vlog with ease with the phone’s detailed on-screen instructions with tips and handy editing tools – and that’s from daytime ‘til dark! Its EIS+OIS Dual Ultra Stabilization feature and Sony IMX 766V sensor make every photo and video balanced, centered and stable each time.

Moving Forward: Embrace the Journey

As you start the next chapter of your life, you will realize that the road to success is not a straight and smooth road but one with difficulties and challenges as well as triumphs and small wins. As you answer the question “Where to next?,” you’d realize The simple yet difficult at times answer is this: Forward.

Take stunning nighttime photos with the new vivo V27 Series 5G, The Aura Portrait Master

When the sun goes down, the majestic city lights start to shine. Coffee turns into spirited drinks and slow music into electronic beats. You go dancing with your friends and have the time of your life. But the next morning, you barely remember anything from the night before and your blurry photos are not any help. 

Let no amazing moment go undocumented! The vivo V27 Series, The Aura Portrait Master, features first-of-its-kind Aura Portrait Algorithm to produce photos with professional, studio-level quality. The latest addition to vivo’s V smartphone line and its newest release in the Philippines, the vivo V27 Series upgrades the industry-standard camera flash, sensors and portrait capabilities so you are assured of high-quality photos whether you’re shooting at night or in low-light locations.

Light up your aura with the Aura Light

Ever wonder why night photos do not come out vivid and clear even when you’re already using your flash? That is because ordinary camera flashes are designed to just light up a certain range around you. They are not specifically created for taking portraits. 

vivo V27 Series’ Aura Light was designed to properly illuminate the subject’s face and create even lighting to keep the skin refined when taking photos in low-light environments. When it is toggled on, the camera automatically detects the ambient light and adjusts the Aura Light’s intensity based on the environment in order to produce night photos with clearer facial details without over- or underexposing the subject’s face.  

Go and take as many photos with your friends or pose in your best aura underneath the spinning disco ball. No need to search for the spot with the best lighting. Just turn the Aura Light on and your portraits will surely come out as sensational as you!

Make night shots vibrant with the Sony IMX766V sensor

They say the bigger the sensors, the higher the image quality. vivo made upgrades to its flagship standard sensors by making them ultra-large and ultra-clear. 

The vivo V27 Series’ camera is powered by the new Sony IMX766V sensor that is now 59 percent bigger in effective sensor size and 104 percent bigger in single-pixel size. By enlarging the sensors, the camera has 145 percent more light intake, which effectively boosts image quality and vibrance and makes images appear brighter and vivid even when they are taken in low-light conditions.

The new sensors also include the industry-leading Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) technology, which can handle all kinds of light situations and gets rid of jitters. Say goodbye to blurry night images because with the new ultra-clear sensors, photos you take during your night out with the squad will come out with clear details and more authentic colors. Don’t hesitate to take photos even if you’re right in the middle of the dance floor as the vivo V27 Series’ also comes with the EIS+OIS Dual Ultra Stabilization that can take a photo or video of you and your friends busting those awesome moves in great detail.

Set the vibe with the vivo V27’s Advanced Portrait Mode

The vivo V27 Series’ portrait mode is now supported by vivo’s Exclusive Portrait Algorithms. This new portrait mode helps understand, beautify and enhance portraits. 

To make sure that your subject has a natural and healthy appearance, the vivo V27 Series’ portrait mode decodes information about your subject and coordinates with up to 103 facial points. The portrait mode’s AI algorithm retouches your subject’s face but without making unrealistic over-enhancements. 

The portrait mode also creates a balance between your subject and the background using the new Low-Light Portrait feature. When the Low-Light Portrait feature is turned on, the Aura Light automatically turns on as well. The Aura Light will light up the subject’s face while the Low-Light Portrait enhances the background by adding tones, thereby creating a warm and vivid vibe. The resulting image then is not only high quality with stunning details but also depicts the same exciting and vibrant moment during which it was taken. 

The Aura Light, the Sony IMX766V and the advanced Portrait Mode all create the newest and first-of-its-kind Aura Portrait Algorithm. Don’t let your night out outfit go to waste. Capture every exciting moment of your night out and let your best aura shine with the vivo V27 Series, The Aura Portrait Master.

vivo Launches X90 Series Flagship Smartphones Internationally

vivo announced the global launch of X90 and X90 Pro, the company’s latest X90 series flagship smartphones. The series delivers a whole new set of advanced camera features and all-around performance upgrades powered by a state-of-the-art dual flagship chip technology featuring vivo’s exclusive V2 chip, in addition to the company’s continuous collaboration with ZEISS in terms of imaging and camera system innovation, including optics, anti reflective coating, software and system integrations. 

“The new X90 series combines our in-house innovation with some of the industry’s leading imaging technologies to bring consumers a smartphone lineup equipped to tackle some of the most challenging scenarios, such as night photography and videography,” said Spark Ni, Senior Vice President and CMO of vivo. “I’m proud of our progress towards making the flagship X series the industry’s go-to flagship line for all-around superb performance.”

Powerful Imaging Specs, a Big Leap Forward

Honed over the course of more than two years, this generation of the vivo ZEISS co-engineered imaging system brings forward a blend of hardware upgrades and software breakthroughs to offer an unparalleled experience. It boasts improved light sensitivity, aperture, natural color processing, and stabilization for an easy and intuitive point-and-shoot camera experience. X90 and X90 Pro feature triple rear camera systems, each with certified compliance with ZEISS T* Coating.​

X90 Pro pushes the limits of smartphone imaging with a 50MP ZEISS 1-inch Main Camera, 50MP Portrait Camera with a Large Sensor, and a 12MP Wide-Angle Camera. The main camera on X90 Pro uses a 1-inch IMX989 sensor, the industry’s largest to date. Compared with other models with a 1-inch sensor, the f/1.75 large aperture and 3.2 μm large pixel (4-in-1) size of X90 Pro increase the light intake per pixel, allowing for brighter, purer night images. Compared to the GNV sensor used in the previous X generation, the new IMX989 sensor’s photosensitive area has increased by 77%, with its light intake capacity going up by 43%.

The 50MP Portrait Camera features an ultra-sensing portrait lens, with an IMX758 sensor that helps to achieve an aperture of f/1.6. With the support of the stabilization system, an exclusive large-aperture lens, and 4-in-1 sensor technology, it delivers subtly detailed portraits, even in low light.

X90 Pro introduces independent optical image stabilization (OIS) technology, developed by vivo, allowing for more intelligent and precise stabilization correction compared to standard OIS. It also supports Active Centering OIS System, significantly reducing smears between frames and motion blur.

X90 boasts a 50MP VCS True Color Main Camera, a 12MP Professional Portrait Camera, and a 12MP Wide-Angle Camera. The VCS True Color Main Camera optimizes the sensor spectrum to achieve the target RGB colors better, improving native image colors, ensuring color consistency, and lowering the noise level.

Pro-level Camera Features to Capture Life’s Moments, Day or Night

The upgraded sensors, vivo’s exclusive V2 imaging chip, the in-house developed AI algorithms, and ZEISS Optics with T* Coating work together to further enhance the capability of night photography and astrophotography, making the new X90 series the perfect stargazing companion. New tools for unique and professional-grade content creation are also introduced.

4K Ultra-Sensing Night Video is now made effortless with vivo’s Super Night Video 3.0 algorithm, supporting exceptional photosensitivity in extremely dark environments. What’s more, the V2 chip ensures clarity even at high ISO settings with its noise reduction algorithm.

X90 Pro comes with an overhauled Handheld Astro mode to capture the starry sky with greater clarity without the need of a tripod in a matter of seconds. This feature is supported by the device’s enhanced light sensitivity, upgraded stabilization technology and a new AI PD Extreme Night focus technology, that improves focus accuracy. Furthermore, taking landscape moon photos is made possible with the Super Moon mode, available on both X90 and X90 Pro, which combines the hardware upgrades and the new Super Night 3.0 algorithm. At blue hour, the period right after the sun sets, vivo’s sky-segmentation technology optimizes blue-tone colors while its Double Exposure algorithm integrates the landscape and the moon into one stunning image.

AI Night View tackles the challenge of getting the tone just right in night photos. Powered by AI network learning, AI Night View can shoot up to 10 frames in RAW while maintaining a high dynamic range. It recognizes elements such as the sky and human faces in night scenes and carries out segmentation to fine-tune the tone and color of each segment. It processes HDR tones with a color depth of up to 22 bits for more subtle color transitions.

ZEISS Natural Color 2.0 in the new X90 series has been further calibrated to present colors with more authenticity and accuracy, bringing captured images closer to what is seen with the naked eye.

For the first time, a new ZEISS Natural Color Display is now added to screen color style settings, to ensure the captured colors are not affected by the display. Now every individual display of vivo X90 and X90 Pro gets calibrated to guarantee that the color rendition of the display is close to perfect.

Another powerful creation feature is the Zero-Shutter-Lag Motion Snapshot, which makes capturing motion easier than ever before. The zero-second delay means what you see is what you get in key moments, even in low light. In Sports mode and Night Sports mode, the combination of the high-speed shutter and motion detection algorithm can instantly freeze frames, keeping any fast-moving subject clear.

The series also brings new creative effects jointly developed by vivo and ZEISS. The new ZEISS Cine-flare Portrait style simulates the flare effect seen in many classic films. Users can also capture unique miniature landscapes using the ZEISS Miniature Effect. This effect only keeps a small part of a landscape image sharp to generate the illusion of a miniature scene with no post-editing needed.

Powerful Device for All-Around Performance and Gaming

X90 and X90 Pro are equipped for high performance, featuring powerful processing capabilities, a large battery, fast charging technology, and a stunning display, ideal for work or gaming. The dual-chip setup of the new X90 series includes MediaTek Dimensity 9200 and vivo V2 Chip. With Dimensity 9200, X90 Pro and X90 have ultrahigh AnTuTu Benchmark scores of 1.26 million and 1.22 million, respectively, representing a massive leap in performance. X90 and X90 Pro come with LPDDR5X (X90 Pro)/ Enhanced LPDDR5 (X90), Extended RAM 3.0, which adds up to 8 GB of extended memory, as well as UFS 4.0 + MCQ and UFS Deep Defragmentation, offering smooth processing and supporting more active apps.

The new X90 series supports 120W Dual-Cell FlashCharge which, combined with an equivalent 4870 mAh (X90 Pro)/ 4810 mAh (X90) large battery, improves both the charging speed and the battery life. X90 Pro also supports 50W Wireless FlashCharge.

The new X90 series offers two charging modes: fast charging mode and balanced mode. In fast charging mode, X90 Pro can be charged to 50% in 8 minutes and 10 seconds while X90 can be charged to 50% in only 8 minutes. The balanced mode is ideal for everyday charging, taking only 29 minutes for both X90 and X90 Pro to get the battery charged to 100%.[1] Moreover, the devices have 24-Dimension Security Protection and TÜV Rheinland Safe Fast-Charge System Certification for guaranteed charging safety. 

X90 Pro has an Ultra Large Vapor Chamber Liquid Cooling System made with a 24-layer cooling structure and the largest vapor chamber among X Pro models covering an area of 4,002 mm², for more efficient heat dissipation and insulation. Additionally, an innovative frame design reduces the heat transfer from the CPU to the frame, thus allowing for the key areas where the users’ hands touch the phone when held horizontally to remain up to 2℃ cooler in heavy-load scenarios.

X90 and X90 Pro have a 6.78-inch Ultra Vision Eye Protection Screen, bringing cinema-like display effects and professional-grade eye protection. The 3D curved screen features a larger viewing area, 1.07 billion colors and a 100% DCI-P3 wide color gamut, delivering rich and natural colors. To top it all off, the display boasts HDR10+ and SGS low blue light, low motion blur, low flicker, AI low blue light certifications, as well as a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, ideal for gaming. The X90 series smartphones offer chip-level Smart Eye Protection Mode, developed by vivo and MediaTek to intelligently monitor and control the proportion of blue light in real time while balancing the colors for added eye care. The display is made of a new Q9 luminescent material, which also effectively reduces blue light. High-frequency Pulse-width modulation (PWM) at a high frequency of up to 2,160Hz is used to reduce screen flickering, while 16,000-level smooth dimming helps adjust the screen brightness based on the light conditions, ensuring eye comfort.

The X90 series smartphones also boast a Dual Stereo Speaker and an X-Axis Linear Motor for a more immersive audiovisual experience and rich tactile feedback for top-notch mobile gaming. In X90 Pro, a SpeakerBoost 4.0 algorithm expands the sound field and extends low-frequency range for a more immersive experience, while the X-Axis Linear Motor provides vibration feedback for over 200 different scenarios. 4D Game Vibration is also supported.

Authentic New Design, Premium Experience

The new X90 series comes with a bold new design inspired by the Fibonacci spiral to deliver a balanced and unique look. A horizontal band, or a Skyline, is introduced on the back cover to divide the functional zones clearly. The sectional design balances the visual focus, making the camera module look less protruding.

Drawing on the design of professional cameras, the new X90 series integrates the three rear cameras into one “Big Eye” to create an integrated overall look, representing the powerful camera system inside. Coated with Corning’s Gorilla Glass and ultra-hard, anti-reflective coating on the surface, the overall hardness of the glass lens reaches 6 on the Mohs scale. It is tougher and resistant to drops and scratches and has higher light transmission. In addition, the Big Eye is enclosed within a decorative surgical-grade, stainless steel Halo Ring for lens protection.

X90 Pro comes in a timeless Legend Black color. The back is covered with luxurious pebbled vegan leather, which is environmentally friendly, stain-resistant, and durable. X90 Pro has a rating of IP68[2] for water and dust resistance. X90 comes in Breeze Blue and Asteroid Black, both featuring an exquisite fluorite AG glass back, which is smooth to the touch, and keeps fingerprints and dirt away.

Achieve that selfie-ready look for the New Year with the vivo V25 Series

It’s been said many times but bears repeating: capture the moments that make you feel happy, including taking your best selfies. However, it is such a bummer when you look terrific and feel so in the mood to take pictures of yourself, but your photos don’t make the Insta-worthy cut. So to help you rock the pic and look incredibly good with every click this coming year, below are some vivo tips you can follow for snapping fabulous selfies with vivo V25 Series. 

Take advantage of natural lighting 

In taking good selfies, natural lighting is the key. The golden hour of sunrise or sunset is the best time to snap a perfect selfie as it gives your face that instant beautiful glow, providing you with aesthetically appealing pictures. One thing to note though is that harsh lighting can turn things around so make sure to carefully choose the angle of the light. Try to avoid facing the sun directly so it won’t cast harsh and nasty shadows on your face. Once you’ve chosen the perfect outdoor lighting, go on and take a snap with your vivo V25 Series and be amazed at how crisp and clear your selfies will turn out with the help of vivo V25 Series’ up to 50MP Eye AF Selfie ready camera. 

Find your best angle

You’ll never know when photos will be captured so better to always be prepared for candid snaps. One of the important tricks to look your best, especially in group photos, is to find your most flattering angle. Remember, your angle must accentuate your favorite facial features. If you’re unsure which side works best for you, you can always explore and experiment by taking selfies from different angles to know which slant allows you to flaunt your best self. With vivo V25’s massive 256GB storage coupled with 16GB dynamic RAM, you can capture as many selfies as you want to find your best angle without worrying about your device’s memory space and switch between your favorite photo editing apps with ease.

Who said taking selfies are limited to a phone’s front cam? Consider snapping shots using the rear camera as well. Turn the phone upside down on the floor, stretch one foot forward and you’ll be surprised how creative the shot might be. Capture more creative shots even with low lighting using the vivo V25 Series’ Super Night Portrait feature worry free as this night vision device will definitely capture all its glory. Experiment with different angles to make sure you are photo ready whenever and wherever a camera points at you.

Let makeup and filters do the trick

Who doesn’t want to look good in photographs? Surely, not you. Thanks to makeup and filters, you can improve the quality and beautify your selfies. Applying even minimal makeup and utilizing your vivo V25 Series’ filters can add radiance to the skin and allows you to be camera-ready. So don’t hold back and snag some moisturizers, foundations, other face creams to be fully glam before clicking the cam. Feel free to explore your vivo V25 Series’ camera filters too. It is equipped with a Multi-Style Portrait feature that provides a fun and wide array of filters that allows you to present your personality. This feature comes with Motion Blur technology to accentuate the subject while blurring the background, giving your photos a greater sense of depth and story.

Smile and have fun

Going back to the daily grind after the holiday break can make you look haggard but don’t let the RTO rush steal your spotlight. Taking selfies is supposed to be fun and sometimes, cringeworthy even. So loosen up and be as playful as you’d like. Do all the kinds of poses and wackies you want with friends and loved ones — be it simple finger hearts or candid shots of the group mid-laugh. No matter what pose you’re up to, smile and have fun while you do it, and you can’t go wrong. 

Whenever you feel good about yourself, make sure to take a selfie or two (seven more!)  and show off your fun side too, because really, no one is keeping tabs on how many times you take a photo of yourself and the various poses you make. Good thing, the vivo V25 Series houses up to 4830 mAh large battery that can keep up with the fun this holiday and allows you to take photos of things that make you happy from sunup to sundown.

Now available nationwide, the vivo V25 Pro in Surfing Blue and Starlight Black is priced at PHP 29,999 while the vivo V25 and vivo V25e sporting the mesmerizing Sunrise Gold and Diamond Black colorways retail at PHP23,999 and PHP 17,999 respectively.

vivo smartphones brings memorable Paskong Pinoy moments

Simbang gabi and Noche Buena are two of Filipinos’ most widely practiced traditions during Christmas. Both activities highlight a holy and festive atmosphere and the importance of celebrating the season with our loved ones. It is during these times that we create a lot of special memories – ones that make up most of our stories when chatting with classmates or co-workers after the holidays.

To everyone who wants to spontaneously create wonderful once-a-year moments with family and friends and digitally keep such memories alive for the longest time, vivo got your back! From taking phenomenal photos and videos to multitasking during holiday preparations without interruptions, the vivo V25 Series, vivo Y16, and vivo Y35 are the perfect tools to help you.

Stunning visuals before the crack of dawn

Churches during simbang gabi always have the most beautiful lanterns, Christmas light decorations, and nativity scenes. But it will be disappointing if you cannot capture these in their most beautiful forms – with accurate colors, optimal brightness, and sharp image quality.

Good thing the #NightPortraitMaster vivo V25 series is here to make all your simbang gabi moments appear astonishing in photos and videos! The vivo V25 Pro has a 64 MP OIS ultra-sensing camera with extreme night vision which ensures that the darkness wouldn’t steal your chance to save and share stunning photos on social media.

Taking portraits is a must for everyone who wants to remember their simbang gabi experiences.  Show your devotion and eagerness to complete all nine masses by documenting them using the vivo V25 Pro. Its Super Night Mode feature gets rid of overexposed dark faces and backgrounds in heavily backlit scenes. It also helps eliminate stray lights and creates a high contrast level for every photo captured when the sun is yet to rise.

Aside from photos, videos are also a good way to document your bibingka and puto bumbong sessions after the early morning mass and the vivo 25 Pro’s Super Night Mode for videos is perfect for that. It has an O+E stabilization feature that creates videos with reduced noise and more authentic quality even in low lighting.

Planning for holiday get-togethers without hold-ups

One of the things we look forward to every holiday season is eating during Noche Buena with the family. Whether small or extravagant, celebrating with our loved ones through food is always a part of our holiday plans. And Christmas dinner preparations can actually be done more smoothly with the help of a powerful and capable smartphone device such as the vivo Y16.
