 PHILIPPINES — The 2025 HUAWEI XMAGE Awards Ceremony, alongside the "The World, You and Me" Annual Imaging Exhibition, opened on November 12 at the Grand Palais in Paris.

Hosted jointly alongside Paris Photo, one of the world’s most prestigious photography showcases founded in 1997, the event attracted a distinguished mix of accomplished creators, influential media representatives, industry leaders, and passionate photography enthusiasts.

2025 HUAWEI XMAGE Awards Ceremony and Annual Exhibition: Exploring ‘The World, You and Me’

Kevin Ho, CEO of HUAWEI Consumer Business Group, emphasized, "Through XMAGE, we harness the power of technology and imagery to better understand the world, and, more importantly, to see one another with greater empathy."

The annual event regularly attracts over 100,000 attendees. This year's exhibition represents the third time, after 2018 and 2019, that Paris Photo and HUAWEI have joined forces to introduce mobile photography to the global art scene. It is also the first since the company unveiled its barrier-breaking XMAGE brand that made a critical shift from mere technology to cultural storytelling.

This year's exhibition is based on the theme "The World, You and Me", and showcases the works of talented creators perceiving, recreating, and interpreting the world around them. The three exhibition areas are titled "I Capture, Therefore I Am", "The Constructed, The Perceived", and "In Their Own Words", reflecting the competition's emphasis on visual immersion.

All of the works on display grapple with the idea of reimaging the relationship between individuals, their wholly unique perspectives, and the visual worlds they inhabit. In addition to its role as an exhibition, the event gathered many of the leaders in global photography, inspiring new exchanges and connections, underscoring HUAWEI XMAGE's aspiration to serve as a global platform promoting artistic exchange for all.

‘SUNGIT’ BY ANY NAME’S OKAY IS THE 2025 OPM ANTHEM PROVING LOVE THRIVES IN MOODY MOMENTS

PHILIPPINES – An exciting alternative-pop/rock outing from the five-piece, Any Name’s Okay latest single ‘Sungit’ is a song that reminds listeners that love is recognizable, alive, and true during the imperfect moments. This track will be part of the group’s first full-length album, set for release in 2026. 

“This song takes such a common Filipino word, and plays around with all the complex feelings that surround it. It is meant to be a snapshot of what a ‘mature’ love and relationship is–it’s never perfect, or nicely pleated. There is something so comforting about that,” said the quintet. “We always try to root our songs in a youthful, hopeful heart,” they added.

‘Sungit’ is a lighthearted reminder that no amount of petty spats, teasing, and bickering can stop you from returning home to the person you love. In fact, these small misunderstandings fill us with gentle affection – they make a bond feel real and alive. It is the cycle we are so familiar with: arguing one minute, smiling the next, and falling back into the same rhythm as if it were just innate in us. Love is alive in these tiny cracks. With lyrics that are playful as they are tender, ‘Sungit’ believes that we thrive in these pockets of imperfection. 

Stream ‘Sungit’ now on your favorite streaming platforms, and follow Any Name’s Okay on all social media platforms for shows and updates.

10 RIDING OUTFITS THAT SAVE LIVES AND TURN HEADS – SAFETY NEVER LOOKED THIS GOOD

 

PHILIPPINES – Whether it is seeing the most spectacular places or being seen riding the motorcycle model of your choice, it really comes down to the lifestyle you lead. It does not matter if you’re cruising through the city on a weekend or taking a quick escape from the daily grind to some exotic location, what you wear when you go for a spin on your bike says as much about you as your ride does. And when your two-wheel companion is the Winner X, every trip becomes an expression of style and confidence.

Honda Philippines, Inc. (HPI), the No.1 motorcycle manufacturer in the country, understands that the modern rider looks for more than just performance. Today’s riders want comfort, safety, and personality on the road, and that starts with both the right outfit and the right ride.

Safety and style start at the top

Every rider knows the helmet is non-negotiable. The Land Transportation Office (LTO) mandates that all motorcycle riders and passengers wear a standard protective helmet that bears either the Philippine Standard (PS) mark or Import Commodity Clearance (ICC) sticker.

Beyond compliance, helmets define your riding personality. Whether it’s the sleek modular type for convenience or a full-face helmet for maximum coverage, choose one that offers ventilation, clear visibility, and fits well. After all, your helmet isn’t just gear, it’s your first line of defense and your signature style on the road.
