    realme’s smart gadgets, on sale for up to 28% off this April 16-18, can help you enjoy a smarter lifestyle!

    Now that a lot of us are staying home, we have to juggle working remotely, completing household chores, taking care of our family, and somehow squeezing in some rest and relaxation—every single day! If you’re feeling overwhelmed, technology can help you become more efficient and help make each day easier. 

    Smart gadgets, for instance, can streamline your work and entertainment for you. With just a single device you can control various household appliances and accessories simply by connecting them to the internet or to each other through Bluetooth. This will help you complete your daily to-do list more efficiently, keep track of your personal goals, and create better ways to bond with loved ones while staying safe at home.

    realme’s top-notch gadgets can help you transition to a smarter lifestyle. The good news is they’re on sale on Shopee this April 16-18! Check out some of these gadgets and a few tips for enjoying a smart lifestyle below. 

    Choose a powerful device for controlling multiple smart gadgets 

    First, you need a heavy-duty device you can use as your “remote.” With realme C25, you can connect to and control your other smart gadgets. This smartphone boasts a massive battery size of 6000mAh, which, aside from being able to withstand hours of serving as a control center for your other devices, can handle multiple activities such as e-mail, gaming, and social media. Even with heavy usage, the phone won’t run out of juice for quite a bit, since it can last more than a month on standby. No need to worry about lengthy charging times with its 18W Quick Charge 9V/2A charger as well. 

    Get gadgets that work for all kinds of scenarios

    At a time when we can’t see our colleagues and loved ones face to face, it’s important to make sure we stay connected. Get crystal clear call quality with realme Buds Air 2, thanks to its dual-microphone noise cancellation feature. Enjoy lag-free video calls with 88ms Super Low Latency as well. Its IPX5 water resistance, which prevents rain and sweat from damaging the earphones, can help you stay connected even when you’re outdoors or working out. You can enjoy all these features and more with the realme Buds Air 2 Neo, which offers an updated, sleeker build. 

    Make technology your partner in health

    What steps are you taking to stay healthy these days? Aside from washing your hands and practicing social distancing, make sure you’re eating right and exercising regularly. Keep track of your BMI, muscle mass, bone mass, metabolism, heart rate, and more with realme Smart Scale. Download the realme Link App to receive a customized health report after you use the scale. The realme Smart Scale can store multi-person health data profiles, so get your whole family in on it as well!

    Enhance your entertainment experience with upgraded home appliances

    At the end of a long day, all we want to do is lay back, relax, and catch up with our families. Make sure to streamline your entertainment so you can make the most of your free time with your loved ones. With the realme Smart Android 43” TV, you can download thousands of apps, games, movies, shows, and music straight from the Google Play Store. Ask questions online, set reminders, and more with the dedicated Google Assistant button on the remote. Use Chromecast to cast more content from your phone to your TV.

  • RGC/Uratex Group does its share in the continuing fight against the COVID-19 pandemic

    RGC/Uratex Group does its share in the continuing fight against the COVID-19 pandemic

    As part of its service to the nation and unwavering support to humanitarian efforts in these trying times, the RGC/Uratex Group of Companies continues to do its share in the fight to alleviate the suffering of many Filipinos during this pandemic.

    Just recently, the group lent a hand to the Philippine Red Cross (PRC) and the Metro Manila mayors’ humanitarian response to address the rapid spread of the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). 

    In coordination with PRC Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Senator Richard Gordon, the RGC/Uratex Group of Companies donated a total of 1,000 mattresses and two food trucks through RGC/Uratex Group of Companies Corporate PR Director Bigboy Cheng to the project being initiated by the PRC and the Metro Manila mayors.

    The project aims to add isolation facilities that come with complete services for COVID-19 patients. The facilities will have food trucks and food kitchens that will offer food for indigent/marginalized members of society who are in the facilities for treatment. The facilities will also have shower rooms, rest rooms and portable toilets that will be replaced daily to keep it clean and sanitary, plus ambulances on standby that will bring patients to available hospitals, according to Sen. Gordon.

    The donation of 1,000 mattresses was just an initial contribution by the Group to the overall effort. This week, the company turned over an additional 1,000 mattresses, for the use of the facilities under the project.

    “We would like to thank Senator Gordon, the PRC, and the Metro Manila mayors for giving us the opportunity to assist in their effort to ease the congestion in hospitals by providing mattresses for their isolation facilities. I believe that through the cooperation of different sectors, we will finally be able to combat the threat of COVID-19,” said Cheng.

    Providing assistance in several humanitarian activities has always been a part of the RGC/Uratex Group of Companies’ service to the nation. Last year, as the pandemic caused the issuance of several lockdowns and community quarantines, the Uratex/RGC Group provided support wherever it is necessary. It dedicated more or less 80 percent of its total Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) budget to COVID-19 response to show its #Malasakit and gratitude to the nation.

    Among the items donated by Uratex to hospitals and quarantine facilities in 2020 were mattresses, cut-away foam for face shields, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for medical frontliners, “Prone Pillows,” a customized pillow designed to help alleviate breathing issues of COVID-19 patients under a mechanical ventilator. There were also donations of COVID-19 equipment, cash and relief packages to employees, subcontractors and promodizers, who are very much a part of the Uratex business.

    Just recently, the company announced a vaccination program for all its employees within the Group. This is to assure that all its employees, and even their families, will remain protected against the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the COVID-19 disease as they continue to perform their work at the various Uratex plants nationwide.

    “As a company, we cannot just stand and watch while the country suffers. We thought we had to do something. #Malasakit has always part of the company’s DNA, which started from its founder, Mr. Robert Cheng. We are just continuing his vision of a ‘people-first’ philosophy, especially during challenging times like this,” Cheng added.

  • Shopee Allows Filipinos to Shop for Essentials Safely and Conveniently at the 4.4 Mega Shopping Sale

    Shopee Allows Filipinos to Shop for Essentials Safely and Conveniently at the 4.4 Mega Shopping Sale

    Health essentials were among the top products purchased by Filipinos on April 4

    Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, concluded its first 4.4 Mega Shopping Day and saw interesting shopping trends among its users on April 4. In the Philippines, consumers took the opportunity to shop for essentials at discounted prices, following the recent tightening of quarantine restrictions. 

    Shopee provided reliable and rewarding shopping experiences for Filipinos at home. Shoppers got to enjoy big savings while safely shopping for their needs, thanks to great deals during the 4.4 Mega Shopping Day. Filipinos stocked up on health essentials with one million medical supplies sold on April 4. Face masks were also particularly in demand and ended up being the top product sold. 

    Martin Yu, Director at Shopee Philippines, said, “At Shopee, it is our goal to provide support in delivering daily essentials to Filipinos as they prioritize their health and safety. With the tightened measures affecting more Filipinos, we are glad that we are able to help Filipino consumers shop for necessities at the best value during the 4.4 Mega Shopping Day.”

    Highlights of Shopee 4.4 Mega Shopping Day in the Philippines

    In the Philippines, 4.4 Mega Shopping Day delivered unbeatable deals from a wide range of brands and sellers. At the Midnight Mega Sale held from 12am to 2am, Shopee saw 6 times more items sold compared to an average day. 

    Home & Living, Beauty & Personal Care, and Mobile Accessories emerged as the top-selling categories. Hygiene essentials and personal care items remained a top priority for shoppers. Storage boxes and 3D wallpapers became best-selling items, since shoppers bought more home decor and organizers for spring cleaning and refurbishing as they spent more time at home. Tech accessories also saw strong demand as Filipinos continued to work from home. Phone stands and headsets were especially popular as Filipinos focused on connecting better with their colleagues and refining their work-from-home set-up.

    Yu closed, “We are happy that Shopee has evolved as users’ go-to shopping platform for essentials. We will continue to cater to their evolving needs, while driving growth for sellers and brands during this time.”
