Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: More Than Just a Smartphone, It’s a Lifestyle Tool

8/17/2025 02:58:00 PM


After more than a year of testing the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, the borrowed unit was finally recalled and returned to the PR agency that facilitated the review, Samsung through TARO AOX Inc. and COMCO Southeast Asia. The handover marked the end of a year-long journey of discovery with one of the most powerful smartphones in today’s market. And while the device is no longer in hand, the lessons and insights it offered remain.

The experience of using the Galaxy S24 Ultra served as a reminder of what really matters when it comes to technology. Gadgets, no matter how sleek or expensive, must always prove their value in everyday use. For lifestyle bloggers, content creators, and digital influencers who rely on smartphones as their main creative tool, usability and reliability stand above all else.

Power Packed for Real-Life Needs

One of the defining features of the Galaxy S24 Ultra was its processor. Samsung equipped the phone with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip (customized for Galaxy), ensuring that speed and efficiency weren’t just marketing points but actual benefits felt during daily use. From editing 4K videos on the go to handling multiple apps for social media management, the device rarely lagged.

For bloggers and creators, this power translates into smoother workflows. Instead of waiting for apps to catch up or experiencing lags during video editing, the S24 Ultra handled demanding tasks with ease. That alone gave it an edge as a reliable partner for people who make a living out of fast-paced, content-driven lifestyles.

 


Display That Brings Stories to Life

The 6.8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display was another feature that set the Galaxy S24 Ultra apart. Its clarity, brightness, and adaptive refresh rate meant that whether you were scrolling through Instagram, editing photos, or watching your favorite shows, the experience was immersive.

For influencers and content creators, visuals are everything. Photos and videos need to stand out, and editing on a crisp, color-accurate display makes the difference between content that looks amateur and posts that stop people mid-scroll. The screen wasn’t just a feature, it was a creative canvas.

A Camera Built for Creators

Perhaps the most talked-about feature of the S24 Ultra was its camera system. With a 200-megapixel main sensor, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide, and two telephoto lenses offering 3x and 10x optical zoom, the phone gave creators tools that previously required professional gear.

For lifestyle bloggers capturing food, travel, or fashion, the detail from the main sensor made photos sharper and more vibrant. For vloggers, the ability to zoom without losing clarity opened up new creative angles. The nightography feature allowed influencers to capture nightlife, concerts, and events with far less noise than older models.

Even for casual users, the S24 Ultra’s camera wasn’t intimidating. Its AI-powered image processing made snapping quick photos look professional with minimal effort. In a world where first impressions are shaped online, this camera wasn’t just an accessory, it was an asset.


 

Beyond Photos: Video Excellence

Content creators are increasingly focusing on video, and the Galaxy S24 Ultra rose to the occasion. Shooting 8K video with stabilization made handheld recordings look smooth and polished. For creators producing TikToks, YouTube Shorts, or Reels, the phone was more than capable of producing content ready to publish without extensive editing.

Pairing this with Samsung’s native editing tools meant you could trim, color-correct, and add text overlays right on the device. For creators always on the move, being able to create, edit, and upload within the same device eliminated the need for laptops or desktops in many scenarios.

The S Pen: More Than a Stylus

What made the Ultra stand apart from other flagship smartphones was the S Pen. Initially, it might feel like an add-on, but for users who adapted it into their workflow, it became indispensable.

Lifestyle bloggers used it for quick notes during interviews or events. Content creators found it handy for precise edits on thumbnails and graphics. Even influencers could use it to sign digital contracts or sketch out quick content plans. The S Pen turned the phone into a pocket notebook, tablet, and creative tool rolled into one.


 

Battery and Durability That Keep Up

No matter how powerful a smartphone is, it becomes useless if it can’t last a day. Fortunately, the S24 Ultra carried a 5,000mAh battery that often stretched beyond a full day of heavy use. For creators attending events, traveling, or filming outdoors, this reliability meant one less worry, but of course it's better to be prepared and bring your reliable Samsung powerbank.

Samsung also gave the device a strong build with Gorilla Glass Armor and an IP68 water resistance rating. That meant the phone could withstand occasional drops, splashes, or sudden downpours, an everyday concern for people who are constantly on the go.

Software That Enhances the Experience

Samsung’s One UI 6.1, layered over Android 14, brought intuitive controls, customization options, and AI-assisted features. For example, Circle to Search allowed instant lookups without switching apps, a small but useful feature for bloggers doing quick fact-checks.


 
Samsung’s DeX mode also enabled the phone to connect to larger displays, transforming it into a near desktop-like experience. For influencers writing blog drafts or managing emails, this was a helpful productivity boost without carrying a laptop.

What the Year With the S24 Ultra Taught

Living with the Galaxy S24 Ultra for more than a year emphasized a few truths about technology:
  1. A gadget may be expensive, but usability matters more. A premium price tag is justified only if the device fits seamlessly into daily life.
  2. Advanced technology gives you an edge. Features like AI photo editing or multitasking efficiency aren’t just perks; they give creators more freedom and flexibility.
  3. Compatibility is key. Not every gadget suits every lifestyle. Some users may find the Ultra’s size overwhelming, while others see it as an advantage.
  4. Trusted brands matter. Buying from a reputable company ensures consistent updates, reliable service, and long-term usability.


The recall of the review unit may have ended the test run, but it highlighted how the S24 Ultra wasn’t just a smartphone, it was a lifestyle tool. For digital professionals whose careers thrive on speed, creativity, and connectivity, the device wasn’t about having the latest model. It was about having the right partner to match the demands of their work.

For lifestyle bloggers, the S24 Ultra provided a balance of style and function. For influencers, it offered tools to elevate their personal brand. And for content creators, it proved itself as a powerful all-in-one studio that fit in their pocket.

In the end, the Galaxy S24 Ultra stood, even though the Galaxy S25 Ultra is packed with AI features, as a reminder that technology should not just impress on paper but also empower in practice. Whether through its camera, performance, or design, the device showed that when the right gadget meets the right user, it can shape not only productivity but also creativity.

Slim Yet Strong: vivo X Fold5 Set for August Launch

8/04/2025 10:18:00 PM



vivo is set to launch its most advanced smartphone yet, the vivo X Fold5, in the Philippines this August. Marking the brand’s first foldable device in Southeast Asia, the X Fold5 combines high-end features with a premium design. It aims to set a new standard for foldable phones. Here are four key reasons why the X Fold5 is one of the most anticipated foldable devices of the year.

1. The slimmest and lightest foldable from vivo yet

Tired of bulky foldables? The vivo X Fold5 introduces a whole new level of sleekness. It weighs only 217 grams and measures just 4.3 millimeters when unfolded. That is as thin as two stacked coins, making it one of the most comfortable foldables to hold and use all day. At the heart of this innovation is vivo’s new 2nd-Gen Armor Architecture with Carbon Fiber Support Hinge. Designed with a rotating sliding structure, it reduces the pressure on the screen and helps eliminate the crease often seen on other foldable devices. The hinge is made of aerospace-grade steel with embedded carbon fiber metal nuts, increasing toughness by 47.3 percent compared to the previous generation.



 

2. Durable beyond expectations

Built to handle real life, the vivo X Fold5 is the first and only foldable in the world with triple protection ratings. It is certified with IPX8, IPX9, and IPX9+ water resistance, plus IP5X dust resistance. Whether in heavy rain or dusty roads, this phone stays protected. It has also passed a 600,000 fold test, proving its long-term durability. Even in cold environments as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius, the X Fold5 keeps performing. You can enjoy up to 20 hours of voice calls, 7 hours and 35 minutes of GPS navigation, and over 4 hours of photography even in extreme conditions.

3. Massive battery for all-day productivity

Professionals will love the vivo X Fold5’s 6000mAh BlueVolt battery. Thanks to the combination of fourth-generation silicon anode and second-generation semi-solid battery technologies, the X Fold5 delivers top-tier energy density while maintaining its slim profile. Whether you are working, creating, or streaming content all day, you can count on this foldable to keep going without frequent charging.



 

4. Flagship imaging power with ZEISS optics

The vivo X Fold5 features a co-engineered camera system with ZEISS, giving users a photography experience unlike any other foldable. It includes a 50 megapixel ZEISS Super Telephoto Camera and vivo’s in-house image processing algorithms that produce professional-grade photos instantly. Expect vivid colors, clear details, and stunning portraits that are perfect for social sharing or creative projects.


 
The vivo X Fold5 doesn’t just catch up with traditional flagships, it also sets a new benchmark. With powerful specs, next-gen design, and unmatched versatility, this foldable signals a major shift: foldable phones are no longer experimental, they’re also essential. This August, Filipino consumers will be among the first in Southeast Asia to experience the foldable revolution firsthand.

Stay ahead of the curve. Follow vivo Philippines on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and X or visit vivoglobal.ph to get the latest updates on the vivo X Fold5’s launch, pricing, and availability.

FIRST LOOK: HONOR Magic7 Series Debuts Autopilot AI Feature for Mobile

10/29/2024 07:01:00 AM


Global technology brand HONOR announced that its upcoming HONOR Magic7 Series will be powered by the revolutionary Snapdragon® 8 Elite Mobile Platform from Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. At Snapdragon Summit 2024,

HONOR revealed its plans to develop an AI-first ecosystem. On stage, HONOR showcased groundbreaking AI features coming to the Magic7 Series, including the industry's first on-device AI Agent for an open ecosystem, and the first real-time NPU graphics rendering for mobile gaming. The company also gave a sneak peak of what its new flagship will look like.

HONOR Defines AI-First Ecosystem by collaborating with Qualcomm at Snapdragon Summit 2024 
 

“Openness and collaboration are in our DNA,” commented Dr. Ray Guo, CMO of HONOR Device Co., Ltd. “With this collaboration with Qualcomm Technologies, we are defining the AI-first ecosystem and revolutionizing user experiences for the AI era. We are thrilled to introduce the industry’s first AI Agent for an open ecosystem, and bring on-device generative AI to gaming powered by NPU computing for the first time. Welcome to the era of Autopilot AI for mobile.”

“We are excited to work with HONOR to shape the future of AI and redefine how people interact with technology,” commented Chris Patrick, SVP and GM of Mobile Handsets, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “Together, we're poised to push the boundaries of AI and create truly transformative experiences.”

Autopilot AI for Mobile: Industry’s first AI Agent for an open ecosystem

The HONOR Magic7 Series will debut the industry’s first on-device AI Agent for an open ecosystem. From a simple text or voice prompt, the AI Agent can order takeout on the user’s behalf. With consent, it can learn from users’ habits to make intelligent decisions, for example it can understand if the user prefers their coffee with coconut milk, and order accordingly.


 

It can also find and cancel unwanted subscriptions across different apps with just a simple command, breaking boundaries between apps and services. The AI Agent can assist across a wide range of uses including travel planning, ticket booking, calendar scheduling, notification management, cross-app file transfer, and more. Set to launch on MagicOS 9.0 on the HONOR Magic7 Series, the AI Agent provides unparalleled convenience and ushers in the era of Autopilot AI.

AI-empowered Hardware: On-device generative AI in gaming powered by NPU computing for the first time

The upcoming HONOR Magic7 Series smartphone will bring on-device generative AI to gaming powered by NPU computing for the first time. The new series will introduce the industry’s first real-time AI graphics rendering for mobile gaming. Compared to other smartphones, HONOR’s solution reduces GPU load, leading to lower device temperatures and a better gaming experience with higher image quality.


 

Seamless AI: MagicRing empowering the Snapdragon ecosystem

Throughout the show, HONOR demonstrated how it is working together with Qualcomm Technologies to define the AI-first ecosystem, aimed to revolutionize user experiences in connectivity, interaction and performance. HONOR showed how its MagicRing technology is empowering the ecosystem across a range of products, apps, and services.

MagicRing makes the multi-device AI experience easier, with its secure and smooth flow of services and information across devices. For example, when using Windows on Snapdragon, Cocreator allows users to produce detailed artwork from simple drawings. Powered by MagicRing, users can seamlessly access Cocreator on their HONOR MagicPad 2, drawing AI masterpieces with their Magic Pencil. They can also use the HONOR Magic V3’s AI Eraser on the HONOR MagicBook Art 14 to experience the convenience of mobile AI across all their devices.

Empowered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite and MagicOS 9.0, the HONOR Magic7 Series is set to usher in a new era of Autopilot AI with its intuitive AI Agent. The upcoming device will bring on-device generative AI to gaming powered by NPU computing for the first time.
