You've got to take a look at the Infinix ZERO ULTRA as you’ve never seen anything like this.

Infinix’s latest offering is quite surprising, it's the ZERO ULTRA. This phone revolutionizes the way you think about charging. It's got an industry-first 180W Thunder Charge, which can power up the phone from 0 to 100% at only 12 minutes.

How is that possible you say? It's from the Thunder Charge technology which is a real breakthrough in the smartphone industry. It lets the ZERO ULTRA charge fast—based on tests performed at the Infinix Labs, all you have to do is activate the Furious Mode charge setting via the “Battery Marathon” option found in the phone’s settings. Of course, you also have to use Infinix’s proprietary 180W charger and data cable, and the ideal room temperature should also be 25 degrees Celsius to get a full charge in 12 minutes.

The shortened waiting time for a full charge makes the ZERO ULTRA perfect for power users who are always on the go. There’s always something that needs to be done or you just want to keep enjoying your phone, and now you don’t have to stand by the wall for an hour while it gets to 100%.

There’s also no need to worry about any battery malfunctions or mishaps while using Thunder Charge, as the ZERO ULTRA has a total of 111 software and hardware security protection mechanisms that take care of the phone, battery, charger, and charging cable, as well as 20 thermal sensors all over the device. The ZERO ULTRA’s TÜV SÜD 36-Month Fluency Rating A certification also ensures that its battery’s quality stays the same after a long time.

For those who don’t need to charge the ZERO ULTRA too fast, the phone also comes with a standard charging mode, which lets it power up at its usual pace.

Beyond the Thunder Charge, the ZERO ULTRA also packs impressive flagship-quality features that rival other top-tier smartphone brands, all for a competitive price. It’s got a 200MP ultra resolution primary rear camera for crisp and clear photos and videos, a 6nm Dimensity 920 5G processor that lets you experience the blazing fast speeds of 5G mobile internet, a dazzling 3D curved 120Hz AMOLED display, and a beautiful and innovative textured glass and star trail design.

Experience the jolt of Thunder Charge for yourself now! The ZERO ULTRA is now available on the official Infinix store on Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop for a suggested retail price of Php 21,999, and it’s currently available for a special Flash Sale price of Php 19,999.

The pandemic has caused a lot of troubles economically for the Filipino family. It spurred a different kind of work, entrepreneurs and businesses increased online and with it, frontliners who serve the Filipino consumer were able to survive the hardships of times. Facebook was certainly a channel wherein groups were formed, it was easy for them to offer services and products, connect with people and make communities grow every day. One of them is Let's Eat Pare, and smartphone brand OPPO knows they deserve to have perks along with the work they put in for countless people in the country who have worked tirelessly since the pandemic started.

To inspire more people, OPPO has launched a new video in time for the Christmas season, paying tribute to those who have had to put their dreams aside and get resourceful during the pandemic. The video shows a family, hopeful and full of wonder at first, and suddenly faced with the effects of lockdowns in the country. Told from the perspective of the breadwinner of the family, the video shows how he chose a high-powered smartphone to revive his business, and keep his younger brother’s dreams of graduating alive.

The video encapsulates what many Filipinos went through in the past two years, having to pivot their careers and prioritizing their needs over desires. The video ends on a hopeful note, showing how the family was able to rise back up through sheer resourcefulness and creativity.

With the help of OPPO and its powerful camera technologies plus social media, the family was able to work on their sapin-sapin business together, and reignite joy into their lives, despite the hardships. OPPO continues its mission to help micro and small business owners keep and even grow their initiatives and this year, partnered with Let’s Eat Pare, a well-known food discovery platform and community, to shine the spotlight on the best restaurants, baked goods, and home meals in town that you might not have heard of just yet. Through his partnership, OPPO boosts traffic to ten verified Let’s Eat Pare merchants by offering exclusive discounts and freebies through its MyOPPO App, hoping to keep their holiday season busy with new customers.

Support your favorite and soon-to-be-favorite small food businesses, and enjoy all of these special Let’s Eat Pare offers, discounts and more this festive season with the MyOPPO App, OPPO’s exclusive rewards program community, until December 31, 2021.
