LG’s OLED Technology Now on Mobile with V30+

You’ve seen the incredible colors and contrast of LG’s best-in-class OLED technology on its flagship TV lineup. Now, with more and more content consumption being done on mobile devices, and the rise of display standards like HDR on smartphones, LG has brought its OLED panels to mobile with the LG V30+.

LG V30+

The centerpiece of the LG V30+ is a massive 6.0-inch OLED FullVision with an elegant bezel-less design. It features all the deep blacks and vivid colors for which LG’s OLED panels are well known, as well as a crisp 2880 x 1440 resolution that showcases eye-popping detail in any content.

The display also supports the HDR10 and Dolby Vision standards, which allow it to show a wider range of brightness and contrast levels and color depth than ever before in supported high dynamic range content.

It also has both standard-angle and wide-angle cameras that allow you capture a greater field of view as you see fit. And with LG’s Cine Video mode, mobile videography takes on a whole new level of cinematic detail – a perfect companion for the OLED display.

Aside from its best-in-class display, the LG V30+ also features all the hallmarks of a modern flagship smartphone, including the top-tier Snapdragon 835 chipset, 4GB of RAM, 64 or 128GB of onboard storage, and IP68 certification for water and dust resistance. It also comes with a plethora of secure unlock options, including Face Recognition, Voice Recognition, Fingerprint Sensor, and Knock Code.

Hope for Lupus Run on January 21

Ever Bilena, the country’s leading cosmetics brand, is a proud supporter, with the Chamber of Cosmetics Industry of the Philippines (CCIP), of this year’s “Hope for Lupus Run” on January 21 at the SM Mall of Asia.

hope for lupus foundationThe event is held in partnership with Hope for Lupus Foundation.

Lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease, causes the body’s immune system to become hyperactive and to attack normal, healthy muscles and organs. This leads to inflammation, swelling and damage to the skin, joints, kidneys, blood, heart and lungs.

The disorder is more common among women. Ever Bilena, with its large women clientele, is working closely with Hope for Lupus Foundation to promote early detection and proper treatment of the disease. The foundation logo is currently part of the uniform of Blackwater Elite, Ever Bilena’s official PBA team.

“Hope for Lupus Run” participants can join the 5k, 10k, or 21k race. Lupus patients can join the 1k butterfly warrior march.

Entry fee for the 21k race is P1, 000, inclusive of race bib, shoetag with RFID (radio frequency identification), race shirt, a “Finisher” shirt and medal. For 10k and 5k races, entrance fees are P750 and P650, respectively. The fee covers race bib, shoetag with RFID and race shirt. Fee for the butterfly warrior march is P350, inclusive of a race shirt and umbrella.

Registration is being conducted until January 14, 2018 at GNC stores, such as those in Trinoma, SM Megamall, SM Aura, Glorietta, SM Mall of Asia and Alabang Town Center.

Bringing Philippine dental implant to global standards

Bringing Philippine dental implant to global standards

Demand for dental osseointegration, also known as dental implant, in the Philippines has been increasing in recent years, and it’s not showing any signs of stopping. A type of procedure that positions titanium into the jawbone beneath the gum to allow replacement teeth to be mounted, it is the best option to achieve natural-looking teeth, improved speech, easier eating, longevity and improved self-esteem.

While it is fast becoming a popular dental procedure, the country is still in the process of growing and maturing. And with the help of world authority on dental implant Dr. Peter Moy who recently flew to Manila from Los Angeles, California for a one-day conference where he shared his knowledge on dental osseointegration, dental practitioners are now more well-equipped to bring the country to global standards.

The conference was a rare opportunity for dental practitioners to learn from the expert himself as he demonstrated a live dental implant surgery as well as discuss the latest development on dental implant.

A protégé of Dr. Per-Ingvar Branemark, the father of modern dental implant, Dr. Moy is a clinical professor of oral and maxillofacial surgery in the Division of Diagnostic and Surgical Sciences at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) School of Dentistry.

He is the president of The Academy of Osseointegration and the director of the UCLA Dental Implant Center and Straumann Surgical Dental Clinical. He is also the first person to hold the Nobel Biocare Endowed Chair in Surgical Implant Dentistry.

Dr. Moy’s main mission was to train professional dentists through proper methods of a dental implant and elevate the standards of dental osseointegration in the Philippines.

The Dental Implant conference was presented by Straumann Philippines, the world’s leading implant, restorative, and regenerative dentistry, in partnership with the Philippine Prosthodontic Society and Philippine Academy of Esthetic Dentistry.
