Samsung Galaxy: Bitten by the Battery Bug? Here’s the cure


What is one important question that a shopper never fails to ask when out looking for a new smartphone? It’s this - How long does the battery last? Consumers and reviewers often go head over heels for the fastest processor chip, the brightest & clearest display, the most advanced camera functions, and the latest OS upgrades -- but all that will be for nothing if your smartphone’s battery can’t hold up. The battery indeed counts a lot because if you don’t get a day's worth of life from it, the device is almost pretty useless. In fact, a battery is never too much – it's almost always too little.

But what if there's a way to have the latest technology, advanced features -- and a long battery life to boot? Haven’t you always wished for a powerful smartphone with a battery that lasts longer than a just few hours? We take for granted how our devices are powerless (pun intended) without the battery. Samsung says that it's time to celebrate the battery by granting your wish.

Samsung cuts the need for multiple, constant recharging of your mobile device with its innovations in battery technology & power management. Particularly for its latest flagship smartphones, the Samsung Galaxy Note5 & Galaxy S6 edge+ are both powered by a hulking 3,000mAh battery, which provides enough energy to get through a day's worth of intensive activities, like preparing presentations, taking down notes, streaming movies, or going on a photography trip with the 16MP camera – all with the social media posts that come with it. But despite using all these energy-consuming apps and features, the battery’s power consumption is kept in check by its powerful and efficient processor. The Galaxy Note5 & Galaxy S6 edge+ both run on the latest and most powerful processor developed by Samsung, the 64-bit Exynos Octa-Core 7420 chip with 14nm technology, and a whopping 4GB of RAM. This allows both devices to efficiently share the load between cores, ensuring a lighter toll on your battery life.

Are you one of those wall-huggers who constantly hound walls and corners looking for random electric sockets to plug into? Five minutes here, ten minutes there – all just to get a few percentages back on their battery life. The Samsung Galaxy Note5 & Galaxy S6 edge+ are both equipped with Ultra Fast Charging technology which shortens charging time and satiates wall-huggers from their addictive habit.
 photo The-New-Samsung-Galaxy-Note5-And-Samsung-Galaxy-S6-Edge-Ultra-Fast-Charging-technology-digitaltech.citylifemanila.asia-001_zps6qrpuok4.jpg

Through wired charging using the Adaptive Fast Charger, both devices can reach 100% from an empty battery in just 90 minutes – which is up to 2.5x faster than other brands. They also come with Built-in Fast Wireless Charging capability. When used with the Samsung Fast Wireless Charging Pad, both devices can charge from empty to full in just 120 minutes, which is ~33% faster than the previous model.

Simply put, Samsung has the cure for the wall-hugging charging junkie. Most know that they've already been bitten by the battery jitterbugs but most just let it go thinking that getting a new battery will be a quick fix that will eventually lead to the same fate of the previous one. Samsung's continuing innovations in battery technology & power management give users more

freedom and less dependence from power banks, emergency cables, and USB slots. With Samsung, you'll be able to do more, and worry less over your battery. You'll be able to review that presentation while on-the-go, and get fully-immersed on movie streaming after a hard day's work.

Indeed there will still be inevitable moments when there are no slots, sockets, or battery packs available for a quick energy fix. Again, with Samsung, you can extend your smartphone’s battery to its limits through the industry-leading Ultra Power Saving Mode. By switching to this mode, your Samsung device will shift your screen to grayscale and minimize all background apps, while still letting you take & receive calls, SMS, access the internet, and select apps like Facebook™ & WhatsApp™.

So now – why settle for wall-hugging? With the Samsung Galaxy Note5 & Galaxy S6 edge+ you can have the freedom to live a life practically free from your charging cables. Visit www.nextisnow.ph to learn more, or go to the nearest Samsung Experience Store to make the switch now. The Galaxy Note5 32GB retails for PHP36,990 SRP, while the Galaxy S6 edge+ retails for P39,990 (32GB) and P44,990 (64GB) SRP.

For when you catch the travel bug, make memories that last a lifetime

Travelling is about collecting precious moments and reliving them over and over. Photo taken by: Karen Elumba

Collect memories, not things, is the mantra that more people now live up to. Realizing that material possessions can only do so much to meet their desire for personal fulfillment, people are increasingly in search of new experiences and are doing so by packing their bags to see new places around the world, ticking places off their bucket lists.

If you’re among those hit by the travel bug, you most likely do so for a variety of reasons – to learn, go on new adventures, meet new people, rejuvenate yourself, and expand your horizons. In a way, travel is also about making connections and sharing your joys with others. Each time you snap that quintessential arrival photo of yourself and post it on Instagram, your circle of friends know your latest pursuits, how you’re living your life, and how they can connect with you. In essence, travel is about capturing, creating, and sharing moments of note.

Travel, of course, is not just about long holidays. A day trip to the next town taken on a whim could be just as memorable as that you spent months planning for. It’s not just the places you visit that matter, but what you do there and how these experiences bring you joy that matters in the end. And for those who have to work around busy schedules and limited vacation days, with so much of the world to see, each travel opportunity becomes a moment of Note. By being able to capture these exceptional moments in our lives, we are able to keep them forever.

Here are a few things to remember so you can better capture, create, and share moments of note, allowing you to relive the joys of travel over and over again:

Take photos of everyday life. Don’t limit your photos to popular landmarks that everyone has probably seen on the internet anyway. Capture moments that show everyday life like vendors selling quaint items. Be quick to snap photos. Be ready for lots of surprises as you travel the streets of your destination—is that Mickey Mouse who just walked by?

Thankfully, your Samsung Galaxy Note5’s camera has a Quick Launch feature, which lets you capture moments in a snap - or a sixth of a second (0.6 second) to be exact. What’s more, it allows you to take high-quality photos with its professional-grade 16MP rear, and 5MP front camera with F1.9 lens that make it possible to capture superb images even in low light. You’ll also appreciate the camera’s many built-in features. The Beauty Face lets you take better-looking selfies, while the 120-degree Wide Angle lens lets you capture amazing landscapes, that you can share with friends and loved ones.

Capture life as it unfolds. Make sure you capture the sights and sounds of your adventures by making good use of multimedia. You’ll find making videos – Video Collages even - incredibly easy using the Samsung Galaxy Note5, which also lets you edit videos for that professional touch.

Make new friends. Meeting new people is one of the biggest joys of traveling—not just the folks you’re traveling with, but also the ones you meet along the way. Think of the concierge who gave you an idea of which restaurant to go to, the bar tender who explained which beer is the best, the market vendor who gave you a bite of sweetest watermelon you’ve ever tasted in your life. Before you leave, have a selfie with them, and don’t forget to jot down their names just in case you come for a return visit. You’ll find it less cumbersome to write down their names & email addresses if you use the S-Pen, —a handy tool for any traveler. The Samsung Galaxy Note5 will even store those handwritten email addresses and telephone numbers into your Contacts using its Action Memo feature that links handwriting to actions.

Learn local words. Knowing a word or two of the local language allows you to soak in the culture of the place. You can easily connect to the internet using your smartphone to find important everyday phrases such as “how much?” and “where is…?’’ For those moments when you need to quickly know the local language – when you’re lost or are in search of something—you’ll find the Action Memo particularly helpful. Just write a word or phrase in English, and link it to Google search to find its local translation.

Write your reflections. When you travel, you get a view of the world through a much wider lens, allowing you to discover new things while also changing your perspectives and long-held biases. Gaining a new perspective in life is one of the biggest rewards of travel, and the Samsung Galaxy Note5 is the perfect companion for these moments of introspection. Write those reflections and capture noteworthy moments, not necessarily as long journal entries, but even just short phrases together with photos you snap using S Note. Let your thoughts flow freely by using the S-Pen, which lets you scribble those musings using your very own handwriting.


Next time the travel bug hits you and you find yourself on an airplane to your next great adventure, reach out for your Samsung Galaxy Note5. It is created with maximum productivity in mind, while still letting you slow down to capture the noteworthy moments in a personal and meaningful way. Its powerful 64-bit Exynos Octa-Core Processor with 14nm technology, together with the S-Pen, transforms the Galaxy Note5 into an all-reliable digital travel diary and ultimate productivity device. With its 3,000mAh battery supported by Ultra Fast Charging & Power Saving capabilities, the Galaxy Note5 will give you the power to keep on going. Because time is always precious for the traveler, its fast charging capabilities ensure that you wouldn’t have to waste minutes waiting for your phone to charge. Through its Adaptive Fast Charger, you can actually get up to 4 hours battery life in just a 10-minute charge. Whether you’re rushing to the airport or just spending down time at the hotel, you’ll find the GalaxyNote5 to be a real life time-saver, allowing you to enjoy your trip without interruption.


Traveling is all about collecting precious moments that you can commit to memory, and cherish forever. With the Samsung Galaxy Note5, you can capture, create, and share those moments of note, from wherever you may be. So the next time you do catch the travel bug – make sure you have the perfect mobile device with you to help make memories that last a lifetime.

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 - A Note-able Proposition

 photo Galaxy-Note5_right-with-spen_Gold-Platinum_zpsktlzdft6.jpg
The name of the game in the smartphone industry is innovation. If a smartphone or a phablet fails innovate to differentiate itself from the countless others available in the market, it fades into obscurity. But how many innovative features does it take to stand out in the industry? Last August, global innovation leader Samsung Electronics introduced its latest flagship phablet, the Samsung Galaxy Note5 to the world. All eyes were focused on this powerful device and its highly improved S-Pen. The whole world was unanimous in asking if the Galaxy Note5 has the chops to break the market.

Samsung has always maintained a strong foothold on top of the smartphone industry. Now, the company has yet again released a powerful flagship phablet poised to win productivity-seeking consumers – the Samsung Galaxy Note5. How is it different from – and ultimately better than – everything else trying to go big?

The better BIG phablet

 photo SAMSUNG_2015FALL_LOOKBOOK_BTS_08_zpskqozqbpw.jpg
First of all, Samsung's design philosophy is unmatched by any other smartphone. The Galaxy Note5 is elegantly designed with a premium metal and glass finish, ensuring the perfect combination of style and sturdiness. It is also protected on both sides by Corning Gorilla Glass 4® so you can forget about scratches. The Galaxy Note5 will not be a victim of gravity. Its back is ergonomically curved which allows the phablet to sit comfortably on one hand without slipping. It comes in two luxurious colors: Black Sapphire and Gold Platinum.

On the display side, the Samsung Galaxy Note5 sports a 5.7" Quad HD Super AMOLED Display, arguably the brightest and sharpest display found in large screen smartphones today. When not in productivity mode, the phablet provides its user a superior viewing experience with true-to-life colors that rival even the quality of HD television sets. It also comes with a UHQ Upscaler which converts standard audio mp3 files to ultra-high quality audio. A dedicated audio clock decreases noise and sound distortion.

Arguably, what tech-savvy consumers always ask smartphone stores when they are hunting for new models is how fast the processor is. This is one of the aspects that the Samsung Galaxy Note5 excels at. The phablet leads the entire industry with a powerful 64-bit Exynos octa-core processor with 14nm technology, and 4GB worth of RAM. With all this engine power, the highly multi-tasking individual will find that the Galaxy Note5 is up to the challenge. Where other smartphones may fail in performance, the Galaxy Note5 rises above and leaves them trailing in the dust.

Another one of the Samsung Galaxy Note5's stellar aces up its sleeve is its 16-megapixel rear and 5-megapixel front-facing camera. This camera combination comes with f1.9 lens and optical image stabilization (OIS) which gives picture-perfect shots even with poor lighting, shaky hands or moving subjects. Both front and rear cameras are also capable of taking photos in real-time High Dynamic Range (HDR). On the other side, the front-facing camera takes better selfies with correction tools and filters which can enhance skin tone, face, and eye shape. Even with the arrival of camera-centric competitors in the industry, the Galaxy Note5 proves that it’s not just about the number of megapixels. Its camera is engineered to provide the best combination between resolution and image quality.

Transcending better with the S-Pen

Brilliant display, faster processor, stellar camera. These phrases are how consumers usually describe a better smartphone. But Samsung doesn't settle for just "better." They want to be the best. The Galaxy Note5 isn't just a better phablet. It comes with the all-powerful S-Pen which pushes the limits of what a phablet can do. The S-Pen, exclusive in the phablet industry to the Galaxy Note5, is unmatched when it comes to productivity. Coupled with the Galaxy Note5's pressure-sensitive screen, the S-Pen's pinpoint accuracy enables users to do what they want, when they want. The pen itself writes and feels like an actual pen, rather than just a stylus. It uses a click-to-access system to pull out the pen from its secure slot at the bottom of the phone.

The S-Pen transcends normal stylus pens because of its perfect harmony with the Galaxy Note5's hardware & software – without the need for charging. Moreover, it is not just a digital writing implement. It opens up a powerful productivity suite unique to Galaxy Note. Upon releasing the S-Pen, the Galaxy Note5’s new Off-Screen Memo opens a notepad that allows users the ability to write notes on the fly – even when the screen is off. If the screen is turned on, the S-Pen activates an improved Air Command which provides users the access to a plethora of productivity options linking writing to actions: Action Memo, Smart Select, Screen Write, S Note, and customizable shortcuts.

Action Memo opens a special notepad capable of recognizing text and turning it into concrete actions such as automatically inputting handwritten phone numbers into the Galaxy Note5’s Contacts. Smart Select captures content on the screen with the S-Pen’s pinpoint selection tools. Screen Write allows users to write on screen shots. S Note opens up the iconic Samsung note-taking app. Users may also assign customizable shortcuts of their most used apps through the new Air Command.

Having a full suite of productivity features anchored on the all-powerful S-Pen would be put to waste if your battery life could not keep up with your needs. That will never be a problem with your Galaxy Note5 as it is powered by a 3,000mAh battery. When the situation actually necessitates a battery re-charge, work won’t have to be postponed for so long as charging is now a breeze with Adaptive Fast Charging (wired), and built-in Fast Wireless Charging capability on the Galaxy Note5. You can get up to 4 hours of battery life in just a 10-minute charge. You can also get a 100% charge in 90 minutes using the Adaptive Fast Charger (up to 2.5x faster than other brands), or 100% charge in 120minutes using the Fast Wireless Charger (~33% faster than the previous model). If you’re out without your charger, you can always rely on Samsung’s Ultra Power Saving Mode to extend your battery to its limits, and still be able to receive and take calls, SMS, access the internet, and select apps.

A notable proposition

All these features prove that the Samsung Galaxy Note5 is a beautifully powerful evolution to what its predecessors built. From the first Galaxy Note and the first S-Pen, the Galaxy Note5 has gone a long way to provide users with the tools to push productivity to its limits and to fulfill their everyday needs. Truly, the Galaxy Note5 has risen to the top of the industry and intends to stay there.

It’s a Matter of Choice & Lifestyle – not Hype

Here’s why your next smartphone should undoubtedly be a Samsung phablet

There are two main reasons why you should get on the phablet train: the Samsung Galaxy Note5 and Galaxy S6 edge+. With many brands taking Samsung's lead - now also offering large screen devices - it’s not only a question of whether you should choose to go big – but it’s also about knowing which device offers fearless innovations that truly fit your lifestyle best.

Bigger Style, More Substance

When Samsung sought to reimagine the traditional smartphone aesthetic, few expected just how their game-changing vision for their newest flagship devices would redefine the category. But its newest smartphones offer significant improvements by way of design.

The seamless integration of glass and metal created a distinct yet timeless look that was ergonomic yet stylish, durable but handy. Carefully crafted to offer purposeful innovation, the result for both the Samsung Galaxy Note5 and S6 edge+ were smartphones that offered next level design and functionality.

The introduction of the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 edge earlier this year created an unmatched stylish footprint that blurred the line between fashion and technology. The leading-edge innovation of the world’s first dual-edge display, and the perfect balance of contrasting glass and metal materials married design and functionality so well. What Samsung created were smartphones designed to reflect an exquisite eye for design – making them stylish statements for their users.

Now the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+, with its 5.7” screen, has the distinction of offering the world’s biggest dual edge display. With more screen real estate, watching movies or playing games becomes a truly immersive multimedia experience - coupled with UHQ (Ultra High Quality) audio upscaling also introduced in the latest flagship phablets. Its curved screen also offers unparalleled accessibility and functionality with the introduction of Apps Edge which gives easy access to your favourite apps, and People Edge that supports easy, personalized communication with your preferred contacts.



 photo 8-15-2015-Samsung-Galaxy-S6--Edge-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-5-Philippines-DSC_0203_zpsc9pmtsrs.jpg
The Samsung Galaxy Note5, on the other hand, is the 5th iteration of the smartphone that single-handedly created the phablet segment, comfortably anchored on its heritage of being a powerful productivity device. In the course of its evolution, it now leaps into more stylish, but no less functional, territory.

Its well crafted glass and metal body now offers a more ergonomic grip, thanks to its narrower bezel and curved back. But its indispensability lies in its hallmark feature, the enhanced S-Pen, which has been engineered to help people get more done, faster. It now feels so much more solid, offering improved writing and precision capabilities, and a variety of practical tools.

With the Off-Screen Memo, users can quickly jot down ideas or information using the S-Pen even while the screen is off. Users can now more easily annotate PDFs, capture lengthy web articles or long images via the new Screen Write. Even the Action Memo introduced way back in the Galaxy Note 3 is now made more intuitive in linking writing to actions.


Now, Galaxy Note5 users can further maximize the productivity from their S-Pen through the new SideSync – which makes connecting your phablet to your PC or Mac easy, like never before. Equipped with features like Drag & Drop, instant file sharing is as easy as a click & drag.

More than just hype — it’s what’s inside that counts

Of course, next level design is not the be all and end all of Samsung’s flagship phablets—a fact that the brand takes to heart as it continues its innovative legacy. Their devices are packed with remarkably distinct core features that answer smartphone users’ core needs — the best display, the most advanced camera, longer battery life, and faster charging – even without wires.

Both the Samsung Galaxy Note5 and Galaxy S6 edge+ have a 5.7-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED display with sharp, crisp and an all around stunning multimedia viewing experience. In multi-tasking, the powerful 64-bit Exynos Octa-core processor with 14nm technology and 4GB of RAM housed inside its carefully crafted aluminium chassis means a smoother, seamless user-experience.

Having the best display, the most advanced camera, and a full suite of productivity features would be for naught if your smartphone’s battery life could not keep up with your lifestyle’s needs. That will never be a problem as Samsung powers both the Galaxy Note5 and S6 edge+ with 3,000mAh of battery power, supported by Adaptive Fast Charging (wired), and built-in Fast Wireless Charging capability.

For times when you need to be on-the-go, you can get up to 4 hours of battery life in just a 10-minute charge. You can also get a 100% charge in 90 minutes using the Adaptive Fast Charger (up to 2.5x faster than other brands), or 100% charge in 120minutes using the Fast Wireless Charger (~33% faster than the previous Samsung Wireless Charger). If you’re out without your charger, you can always rely on Samsung’s Ultra Power Saving Mode to extend your battery to its limits, and still be able to receive and take calls, SMS, access the internet, and select apps.

All that said, the distinction between each phablet also splits into its unique core capabilities: the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ being the top choice for those who lead multimedia-savvy and fast-paced lifestyles, and the Galaxy Note5 being that for productivity-seeking users who want to be able to do and achieve more.

Bottom-line? You can’t go wrong with either—but it will all depend on what your lifestyle demands from your smartphone. The choice ultimately comes down to which Samsung phablet fits you. And whichever Samsung Galaxy phablet you choose, rest assured that that you’re giving yourself, quite literally, a massive upgrade in terms of style and functionality that no other brand can deliver — no hype here, just the real deal.
