Filipino singer-songwriter/producer Ace Banzuelo continues to carve out a new lane in pop music with the release of “Babae,” an ‘80s inspired track steeped in warm, analog-sounding synths and romantic lyrics.
The retro-infused jam serves as the official anthem for #BabaeAko, an International Women’s Month campaign by Sony Music Philippines which aims to put a spotlight on women and female artists under the label’s roster through several online and promotional activities.
In an exclusive interview, the seventeen-year-old shares how he got into music, talks about his recently released single ‘Babae’, being hands-on on the music video, and more. Watch the interview below:
“Babae” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide. Watch the music video here.
Filipino toy designer, illustrator, and graffiti artist Quiccs has made waves worldwide for his unique creations. His designer toys—inspired by his interests in Japanese robots, graffiti art, and hip-hop—usually sell like hotcakes after their release.
Over the years, the award-winning toy designer has worked with big names locally and abroad—there’s a global sportswear brand, a telecommunications company, and this time around, one of the largest shopping mall chains in the Philippines.
Mallgoers are in for a treat as Quiccs partners with Robinsons Malls for an exciting collaboration. Say hello to R-TEQ63, a larger-than-life Quiccs installation that you’d exclusively find at Robinsons Galleria! You can spot R-TEQ63 at the Level 2 Atrium starting April 30 to May 31, 2022.
The massive, 25-feet inflatable figure takes after the design elements of the toy designer’s signature TEQ63 character. In case you’re wondering, “TEQ” is short for “technique,” while “63” is the Philippines’ country code.
“We are thrilled that Robinsons Malls becomes the first home of Quiccs’ exciting new creation, the R-TEQ63. We hope that toy collectors, hobbyists, and art aficionados find Robinsons Malls as their favorite destination where they can pursue their passions and discover unique experiences,” says Arlene G. Magtibay, SVP and General Manager of Robinsons Malls.
Aside from the inflatable figure, you can also check out Quiccs’ toy booth from April 30 to May 1. Score a new Quiccs toy figure and get a chance to meet the artist himself during the Meet and Greet session.
As this TEQ63 character is the first of its kind, make sure you snap lots of photos! The best part? You stand a chance to win a random Quiccs toy every week through the R-TEQ63 Selfie Raffle Promo. To join the contest, simply take a selfie with R-TEQ63 at Robinsons Galleria, and follow and tag the official Facebook and Instagram accounts of both Robinsons Galleria and Quiccs. Winners will be announced every Friday. The promo runs from April 30 to May 31.
Keep your eyes peeled on Robinsons Malls’ social media pages, as R-TEQ63 is set to visit other Robinsons Malls such as Robinsons Magnolia and Robinsons Place Manila. For now, make sure to mark your calendars and check out R-TEQ63 at Robinsons Galleria.

POCO, a popular technology brand among the world’s young techies, is announcing the global launch of its latest flagship POCO F4 GT smartphone, heralding the apex of power, along with POCO Buds Pro Genshin Impact Edition and POCO Watch – the brand’s first-ever AIoT products.
Living up to its potential, POCO F4 GT delivers an impressively apex performance with a flagship 4nm Snapdragon® 8 Gen 1 processor, backed by a sophisticated LiquidCool Technology 3.0, a flat AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate, magnetic pop-up triggers, and topped off by 120W HyperCharge.

Meanwhile, POCO F4 GT offers a fully fledged LPDDR5 RAM with up to 6400Mbps for shorter load times, along with an upgraded UFS 3.1 ROM.

Not only does POCO F4 GT sport rapid recharge times, the battery’s lifespan can be optimally preserved as a benefit of its AdaptiveCharge feature. This feature prevents the battery from overcharging in the critical 80% to 100% charge range throughout the night.
Magnetic triggers pop up, standing tall in preparation for battle. The setup has surpassed expectations. The unique levitating magnetic pop-up triggers, able to handle 1.5 million times press, have been tested on more than 100 popular games[6]. This ensures unbeatable stability, responsiveness and durability. To attain a more premium gaming experience, the CyberEngine, one of the best linear motor available on Android smartphone, offers more ranges of vibration. POCO F4 GT is ready for whatever users may throw at it, not only for the extended sessions of mobile gaming also in daily use. When out of gaming mode, the triggers can also be used as a shortcut for quick access on the go, such as a shortcut to activate camera, screen recording or flashlight.
At the press of a button, users can turn on the screen to be floored by POCO’s latest 6.67-inch flat AMOLED and 10-bit TrueColor display, which when combined with the responsive 480Hz touch sampling rate and the up to 120Hz refresh rate, makes the screen come to life. Whether gaming or streaming shows, the true-to-life color spectrum leaps from the screen. POCO F4 GT also works to simultaneously maintain color accuracy in low-light settings while using high-frequency PWM dimming to protect its users’ eyes during marathon screen time sessions. POCO F4 GT’s display has set and matched 15 display performance records from Display Mate and is rated as A+ screen.
True to its nature as an apex of power, POCO is adding one more service to its list of inaugural features for the latest device. Users can enjoy the premium after-sales service, which offering one-time free screen repair service during the first 6 months after purchase. In addition, YouTube’s subscription service, YouTube Premium, will come pre-installed on POCO F4 GT. To sweeten the deal, customers can enjoy YouTube Premium for up to two months free. That means two months of ad-free, offline viewing, and uninterrupted access to video and music content across the Youtube platform.
