Vivo’s latest Christmas Video Pays Tribute for the Fallen Heroes of Marawi

Vivo Philippines has recently outed a video in where they paid tribute to the soldiers who fought for our freedom in Marawi City. The story in the video revolves a grieving wife who is taking care of their children on the Christmas Eve when carolers offered a song ‘Silent Night’ outside their home.

They brought Noche Buena food and gifts to the family as the grieving mother and wife welcomes them to their home only for the soldiers to see the portrait of their fallen comrade who fought for peace and freedom for our country.

The video from Vivo is trending right now and it’s a really nice gesture from Vivo Philippines to create a video like this for our soldiers who fought in Marawi.

Here’s an interesting news coming from ASUS. We just spotted the ASUS Zenfone Max Plus M1 here in the Philippines and it’s their first smartphone with an 18:9 display aspect ratio. We just also received a news that the smartphone will arrive in the country very soon.

So what’s up with the ASUS Zenfone Max Plus M1? Well, the smartphone belongs to the Zenfone Max series so it is already expected that the smartphone will sport a large battery capacity.

The ASUS Zenfone Max series just got more interesting with the addition of the ASUS Zenfone Max Plus M1. I hope that we can get to see more of 18:9 smartphones from ASUS

ASUS Zenfone Max Plus M1 Specs

  • 5.7-inch Full HD+ Display
  • 1.5GHz MT6750T Octa-Core Processor
  • 4GB RAM

This time, the ZenUI on the ASUS Zenfone Max Plus M1 is cleaner and faster than before and I really like the 18:9 display of the smartphone not just because it is ergonomic but it’s also Full HD+.

We still don’t have the release date but expect that the smartphone would cost less than P14,000.
