    HP 21.5-inch FHD monitor takes multitasking to greater lengths

    Working from home can have its benefits—not having to wear a uniform or rushing to the office, enjoying more than the usual number of coffee breaks or snacks, or having extra time with the family.

    Temporarily working from home or setting up a home-office will also mean achieving greater productivity, especially if one has a secondary screen such as the HP P22h G4 FHD Monitor.

    Studies reveal that multiple monitors can increase productivity by 42% or more[1]. And the P22h Monitor is one stylish and sleek business display that can surely boost productivity as it serves as a bigger second screen for those using a desktop or laptop with smaller displays.

    With an ample 21.5-inch diagonal Full HD IPS screen with a 3-sided micro-edge bezel for unlimited sightlines, the HP Monitor is capable of multi-display setups and convenient navigation of documents and spreadsheets, providing a better work experience—from essential presentation features and comfort adjustability, to advanced connectivity—all at an affordable tag price.

    The P22h Monitor has a 1920 x 1080 resolution to deliver clear and crisp images for all content, including documents, charts, graphs, spreadsheets, pictures, and videos. It has 100mm of available adjustable height, plus it swivels and tilts 5/+25 (+/-2) and has 90° pivot rotation which makes for the best view that puts content front and center of the workstation, making for optimum ergonomics.

    The monitor has HDMI and DisplayPort™ connectors, allowing quick and versatile connectivity to HP Desktop Mini, HP Chromebox, and select HP Thin Client. Its VGA connector also enables compatibility and connectivity to older devices and other equipment. It also has a display assistant that allows users to manage the display and quickly resize screen partitions so they can work in separate regions of the screen.

    So, what are you waiting for? Get the HP P22h G4 FHD Monitor to boost your multitasking and productivity today. Get it online with a three-year standard limited warranty at Lazada (https://bit.ly/HPmonitorsLazada)

  • Experts Urge Public To Take A Closer Look At Drinking Water

    Experts Urge Public To Take A Closer Look At Drinking Water

    Health experts reveal that it is not enough that the water you drink looks clean to the naked eye. Your water should also be proven clean through lab tests, to avoid common water bourne diseases, such as cholera, dysentery, and gastroenteritis. Unfiltered water also has many potential contaminants, such as chlorine, heavy metals and allergens, as well as parasites.

    Despite this, keep in mind that water is also important in everyday hydration. A document released by the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition cites hydration as a key to supporting the body’s ability to fight the COVID-19 virus and support the immune system, recommending 2-4 ounces of clear liquid beverages every 15 minutes.

    “Keeping properly hydrated at a time like this refreshes our bodies and keeps the virus away,” said Dr. Sybil R. Bravo, a Clinical Associate Professor at the University of the Philippines-Philippine General Hospital and a member of the Blood-Bourne Infectious Diseases Core Team.

    Health experts around the world continue to stress the need for proper hydration, along with getting enough sleep and proper handwashing, as the best ways to ward off the COVID-19 virus. However, access to safe and clean water continues to be a challenge. There are many harmful substances and minerals in unpurified water, and not all bottled water in the market is the same

    Finding clean water that undergoes stringent purification processes to filter harmful substances and minerals means checking the purification process of which it undergoes. Some follow stricter and more stringent global processes to ensure that they are truly clean. Wilkins Pure, one of the water brands of The Coca-Cola Company, is certain to be clean and pure. With international certifications under its belt, Wilkins Pure goes through an advanced, seven-step purification process, which help assure that the water you drink purifies the body of toxins.

    Learn more about the Wilkins via its official Facebook page or cokebeverages.ph.

    About Coca-Cola in the Philippines

    Coca-Cola has been refreshing Filipinos and making a difference in the Philippines for 108 years. The Philippines was Coca-Cola’s first market in Asia to begin local bottling operations. Today, the Coca-Cola system in the Philippines has evolved into a total beverage company, offering 19 brands in its beverage portfolio and employing over 10,000 Filipinos in over 19 manufacturing facilities and more than 60 distribution centers nationwide. As part of its long-standing commitment to the country, Coca-Cola continues to #GOBEYONDGOOD as a business by continuously supporting safe water access programs in over 200 communities, empowering over 200,000 women entrepreneurs through training and peer mentoring, and accelerating packaging collection and recycling under its global World Without Waste initiative.

  • The Frame: Samsung brings together the complete TV experience and art appreciation

    The Frame: Samsung brings together the complete TV experience and art appreciation

    Critically-acclaimed films and programs are now widely considered as art, which deserve to be seen through an exceptional TV.  Visual masterpieces by some of the world’s greatest artists are also now easily accessible at home, as part of your interior design, with Samsung’s The Frame.

    Samsung hopes to inspire art enthusiasts, interior designers, and other tastemakers as it re-introduces The Frame, a lifestyle TV that features QLED picture quality and functions as your living room’s piece of art at the same time, to the Philippines.

    With this latest innovation, Samsung, the Global No. 1 TV brand for 14 years, has created a TV that is truly top-of-the-line functionally and aesthetically, one that brings video and colorful images to life as it reflects the contemporary taste of urban homeowners.

    TV when it’s on, art when it’s off

    The Frame functions as a TV when it’s turned on and projects itself as art when it’s turned off. More than integrating QLED technology and other smart features that Samsung has been known for, The Frame enriches the viewing experience and appreciation even further with Art Mode function, bringing world-class galleries to one’s home through the Art Store platform.

    The Art Store, which comes with a one-month free trial, is a subscription-based database of digital art, allowing the TV’s user to curate a personal art collection from top galleries around the world and bring these masterpieces straight to the living room. A full subscription provides unlimited access to 1,200 classic and contemporary artworks and photography from 36 galleries in 18 countries.

    Royal Collection Trust, Art Space, Saatchi Art, and Lumas are some of the major gallery partners of Samsung in bringing classic and modern art into your home.

    With Auto Curation, The Frame can also serve as a personal art agent, learning one’s style and taste, to recommend art that they would love to see inside their homes. Artists and photographers can also choose their favorite works and curate their own gallery.

    Elegantly-framed

    Designed to look like an elegant picture frame that enhances any space, The Frame’s interchangeable accessory bezels match the style or reflect the mood of one’s interiors.

    These magnetic bezels—in earth tones of beige or brown and elegant black or white colors—connect effortlessly to enable the TV to blend in and fit in any décor, or stand out and draw attention to itself.

    The No-Gap Wall Mount feature also helps The Frame blend in from any angle, and can be easily installed to sit flushed against the wall to hang like a real framed gallery piece. A separate Studio Stand also allows The Frame to be placed anywhere in the house, to match one’s style and taste.

    The Frame 32-inch (P31,999), 55-inch (P79,999), and 65-inch (P109,999) models will be available in Samsung Authorized Dealer stores starting July 1, 2020. Each purchase comes with one free Frame Bezel of your chosen color, redeemable via the Samsung Redemption website.  Additional accessories for The Frame can be purchased from Samsung’s online store.
