vivo V50 Lite 5G: A sleek, stylish phone with big 6,500mAh BlueVolt battery and 90W FlashCharge

Battery life is one of the most important features of a smartphone. But for some reason, it has been overlooked by brands for years. Having good longevity meant owning an uncomfortably bulky smartphone, as high density also meant a big battery module. Well, that’s not the case anymore, as the latest vivo V50 Lite 5G proves that you can cram a big battery inside an incredibly sleek and portable smartphone — as thin and light as the vivo V series has been prominent for years. The vivo V50 Lite 5G comes with a whopping 6,500mAh BlueVolt battery — a capacity that was never possible on an incredibly sleek device at only 7.8mm thin and 197g. To give you an idea, the V50 Lite 5G has about 1,500mAh more battery capacity than most phones in the same weight class. We already ran our battery tests for our upcoming full review and are happy to report that vivo V50 Lite 5G has one of the best scores we’ve ever gotten on this price segment.

VIVA Holdings partner with IPOPHL to combat online piracy

VIVA-NoypiGeeks

Vic Del Rosario Jr.’s Viva Holdings, Inc. (VHI) and the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) have signed a memorandum of agreement (MOU) to enhance IP protection in e-commerce.

The agreement includes 37 Viva companies with a broad reach in the entertainment sector, including film and TV production, music licensing, streaming, and radio programming, as well as in skin care and cosmetic products, fitness studios, and food services.

Del Rosario, Viva’s Chairman and CEO, stressed the importance of the partnership with IPOPHL to protect their brand, creators, and artists against piracy and counterfeiting, which has been a significant problem with online media and streaming.

He also added that a significant portion of their earnings is lost due to the said illegal activities, which means less budget for the quality and quantity of future projects. He also lamented the weakening movie theater industry, which pushed the company to depend more on streaming services.

Through the MOU, IPOPHL will help Viva address unauthorized sales of products, such as beauty items, in the Philippines.

The IPOPHL, established in 1998, is the government agency administering and strengthening the Philippines’ intellectual property policies and projection of IP rights.

Through the MOU, Del Rosario Jr. also highlighted that all Viva stakeholders, including the directors, writers, songwriters, and anyone creating content and products for Viva, are now protected. He added that the impact of the protection is not only for income but for creators, inventors, and innovators.

The MOU will help Viva with the ongoing problem of intellectual property theft of its digital content and extends to major e-commerce platforms, like Lazada, Shopee, Zalora, and TikTok, to remove counterfeit items.
