    Millennials pursue nighttime passions, hobbies thanks to smartphones

    For most people, 2020 will undoubtedly be an unforgettable year, not only because of the life-changing impact the COVID-19 pandemic has caused, but also how it has brought out the best in everyone, including millennials.

    More than three months into their quarantined lives amid the new normal, millennials have discovered the perks of working from home—minus time-consuming and tiresome commute routines, they now have plenty of time and energy, especially at night, to pursue their hobbies and passions. Here are some examples:

    Active living

    With gyms and sports centers temporarily closed, millennials are still able to sweat it out at home, thanks to online workout programs. Yoga, boxing, and high-intensity interval training are some activities they indulge in after work. And with workout apps available in the vivo app store, millennials need not worry about doing routine exercises or plateauing anymore.

    Making bread

    While some people are making some “bread” out of sidelines and online freelance work, young professionals have also been making bread, literally. Ube pandesal with cheese, artisan bread, and sourdough, are just some of many creations home-bakers have been making the past few months, attributed to videos and recipes available online.

    Jamming and crafting

    With their powerful processors and huge memory, smartphones like the vivo V19 Neo which has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 AIE Octa-core processor and 8GB RAM, have become digital recording studios and art canvasses which young artists use to create content—even remotely collaborating with other artists—and promote their work online.

    Gaming

    Gone are the days when one had to buy consoles just to play the latest games with friends. Today, smartphones’ gaming features, such as the vivo V19 Neo’s Ultra-game mode and Multi-Turbo Acceleration Technology, enable lag-free gameplay and gaming optimization, allowing millennials to fully immerse in virtual worlds and be hooked to online games.

    Capturing twilight

    With plenty of subjects to shoot at home and a magnificent and ever-changing background in the night sky, millennials have discovered endless possibilities to look for art in the dark—especially with devices that can capture clear and stunning images despite low-light. Such is the vivo V19 Neo, whose super night mode and super night selfie algorithms harness a 32MP front camera and rear AI quad cameras, to reduce noise and enhance clarity in the dark.

    Take back and ignite your night

    These are just among many passions that millennials have explored in the first half of the year. Have you explored your night-time passions already? Take back and ignite your night with the all-new vivo V19 Neo, now available at vivo’s flagship stores in Shopee and Lazada for just P17,999.

  • Maintain an active lifestyle at home with these tips from vivo

    Maintain an active lifestyle at home with these tips from vivo

    There are many ways through which people are coping with feelings of anxiety, depression, boredom and other ill-effects of an extended enhanced community quarantine. One of these is stress-eating.

    While understandable, such a lifestyle may not be sustainable in the long run–especially if one has not been exercising. Unfortunately, most gyms and sports facilities won’t be opening anytime soon, so there is really no better way to shed-off excess fat than by adopting exercise habits at home.

    Don’t know where to start? Here are simple and easy ways to get your body moving and getting it back into tip-top shape.

    Start with simple activities

    It would be unwise to instantly go through rigorous exercises and programs without priming your body to go through them. Activate and engage your body through simple activities such as cleaning the house while listening to upbeat music. You can also try meditating just to make sure that your mind is in harmony with your body.

    Download Workout apps

    The vivo app store has workout apps that contain plenty of programs and exercises. Try apps that include High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) programs where you do a series of repetitions continuously with minimal rest time. While these apps promote quick workouts that last less than 10 minutes, do not be fooled–you will feel like you just ran a marathon.

    Head to Facebook for live workout videos

    If motivation is what gets you going when it comes to workouts, try doing it together with other online users. Facebook pages of different gyms around the metro now offer both free and paid live online workout classes like yoga and shadow boxing that are sure to shed off a few “quarantine pounds”. If you’re not to keen on working out with strangers, you can always gather your friends for a video call workout session. Just make sure you actually work out and not end up having an “e-numan”–you can always do that at a different time.

    Try Tik-Tok dance challenges

    If conventional workout routines and exercises aren’t your thing, you can always try creating TikTok videos. Try engaging in a “dance workout” by trying out all the dance challenges created by users in the platform. You will actually sweat buckets trying to perfect the challenges over and over again.

    These home-based exercise methods may not be the same as “maxing out” in the gym, but these are great ways to maintain an active lifestyle and fight off the urge to stress-eat during these unprecedented times.

    All it takes are a few clicks. You can download the Facebook app and plenty of workout apps using the vivo app store, pre-installed in all vivo mobile devices.
