The best travel accessories to get, based on your star sign
Must-have for your vacations!
The more we travel, the more we learn about ourselves. In the midst of our journey, we also discover that some travels — whether it’s short- or long-distance — teach us how to make our trips worthwhile.
So, before you travel again, here’s a mini guide on what to invest in as travel accessories, based on your signs. Astro-geeks, feel free to apply this to your Sun, Moon, Rising, or Venus signs!
PSA: These can also act as gift guides if you know your loved ones’ signs. And just remember, if you don’t want to be accountable for your purchases, you can always blame the stars.
Aries: Portable speaker
Ah, Aries. Trailblazers. As the lively ones with a rebellious nature, a portable speaker like the Soundcore Mini 3 Pro is ideal for both short- and long-distance trips.
The loud music energizes you so it’s important to have a compact sound device to accompany you throughout the day. Maybe playing good music can help you bring more friends into your lives!
Taurus: Pair of wireless earbuds
Lovers of comfort. If you have a Taurus in your chart, you might benefit from having a pair of wireless earbuds like the realme Buds Q2. It can help you ground yourself and feel at ease while traveling.
It also works as your companion whether you’re watching your comfort show, or when you need good music to soothe you as you sleep.
Gemini: Travel adapter
For those who have Gemini in their chart, we understand how short your attention span is. We’re certain you have different devices with you when traveling, so it’s important to carry a travel adapter like the Awei C-36 charger.
It’s multinational so you can bring it anywhere, and there are plenty of ports for you to choose from. You can charge everything everywhere all at once.
Cancer: Instant camera
Beneath their tough exteriors, those who have Cancer in their charts are actually sentimental. Though they may never admit it, an instant camera is beneficial to invest in as a travel accessory.
The instax mini 11, for example, can be disguised as an essential that produces souvenirs to make the trip memorable. It can also be a way for Cancers to reminisce about the good times when they’re feeling a whirlwind of emotions.
Leo: Portable hair dryer
For the Leos who want to keep their mane in perfect shape and look put together wherever they go, a portable hair dryer is essential.
Of course, Leos won’t get any hair dryer. They’ll need something aesthetically-pleasing. Luckily, there are plenty of options. From realme’s very own hair dryer to Dreame’s Trouver Anion Hair Dryer.
Virgo: Travel pouch
What do you call a group of Virgos traveling together? A business trip with project managers. Kidding aside, a Virgo is one of the glues that keep a group together. After all, without them, the desired vacation will forever be a plan.
Virgos make it happen, and to keep them from spiraling, a multi-storage bag like the Ringke Travel Organizer Pouch can help them organize their stuff. They may not be able to sort their thoughts, but at least, keeping their stuff organized can make them feel they have it all together.
Libra: Powerbank
Ah, the social butterflies. Libras will always be up with their smartphones, either staying connected online, or always having the phone in their hands to check, book some stuff, organize, take photos, or even connect with people offline.
Smartphones may be their perfect accessory, but a powerbank like the Romoss Sense 8+ can be their best friend. Libras will never run out of juice again — be it for their smartphone or their social battery.
Scorpio: Anti-theft accessory
Scorpios tend to be cynical, and at most, paranoid. To stay sane during their travels, having an anti-theft backpack like the Pacsafe Anti-theft Vibe 20L Backpack can secure their belongings and give them peace of mind.
When they feel safe, both with their belongings and with the people they’re with, expect a Scorpio to bring joy to any party and group.
Sagittarius: Action camera
For those who want to break free, a Sagittarius will enjoy an action camera (or any camera) that helps them document their favorite adventures.
A GoPro would most likely keep up with their busy lives, especially with the action camera’s ability to stay stabilized even in constant movements.
Capricorn: Garment steamer
Capricorns… they can never let their hair down, don’t they? Still, we love them and their grounded nature. They’re good with planning, and like Virgos, they’re good at making things happen.
And for Capricorns, the Philips [STH3010/70] Garment Steamer might be the best travel accessory, allowing them to have a polished look — which they really like — even on the most mundane days (or crazy trips).
Aquarius: Compact drone
An Aquarius is always known for being eccentric… and different. They’ll offer good perspectives, and will bring in something new when you travel. They have a knack for keeping things unique and authentic. Like their sister sign Leo, Aquarius wants to be in the spotlight, too, but not exactly on them.
A compact drone like the DJI Mini SE Drone might make the people around them gather. After all, seeing a drone always makes someone excited and the drone operator will always look cool.
Pisces: RFID Wallet
A Pisces is, for the most part, either good at living in the moment or losing themselves in awe of something. When traveling, you’re never sure what state they’ll be in.
It’s best to keep their important cards and money safe with an RFID wallet, so they can feel free to enjoy their sights and surroundings.

70mai launches the A900 series with 4K front, rear recording
Two new 4K dual-channel dash cams, both with 4G
70mai has launched the A900 Series, led by the flagship 70mai Dash Cam 4K A900 Ultra, with the 70mai Dash Cam 4K A900 joining it in the lineup.
Both models record in 4K from the front and rear cameras, and both support 4G, so your footage stays reachable from your phone even when you’re away from the car.
4K recording from both cameras
The A900 Ultra uses dual Sony STARVIS 2 IMX678 sensors to capture clear 4K footage from both directions. As a result, details like license plates and road signs remain sharp.
Smart HDR balances bright and dark areas under shifting light. Users can also adjust color tones and contrast. To keep feeds synced, the rear camera uses LVDS digital transmission. This tech sends a lossless 4K feed with just 20ms of latency.
Handling changing light
Driving into a tunnel or under the shadow of a tall building changes the lighting quickly, and 70mai built three imaging technologies into the A900 Ultra to deal with it.
MaiColor Vivid+ Solution 2.0 is meant to give more natural colors and finer detail, along with smarter scene adaptation. Night Owl Vision 2.0 reduces noise and glare to help with nighttime clarity.
Lumi Vision is made for parking surveillance in near-total darkness, where it automatically adjusts exposure and gain and applies noise reduction. 70mai says this produces clear, full-color footage in extremely low light.
Parking mode and remote access
Smart Parking Guardian Mode 2.0 protects your vehicle while parked. It combines AI motion detection, dual-channel collision detection with pre-recording, and time-lapse options.
The system draws just 5mA on standby to prevent battery drain. For extended coverage, the optional 70mai Battery Pack Mini powers surveillance for up to 30 days.
Pairing the camera with the 4G Hardwire Kit unlocks 70mai 4G Cloud+ 2.0 features on the app. Enhanced Buffered Emergency Recording saves up to 190 seconds before an incident and 30 seconds after.
It automatically uploads this footage to the cloud for immediate remote viewing.
The 70mai Dash Cam 4K A900
The A900 sits alongside the Ultra as the more accessible option. It records True 4K HDR at 30FPS from both the front and rear cameras, and Smart HDR can be scheduled to turn on at set times.
Its f/1.55 aperture is meant to help in low light, and 4G Cloud+ 2.0 keeps the dash cam connected to the 70mai App. It’s the model for drivers who want dual-channel recording and 4G connectivity at a lower price.
The 70mai Dash Cam 4K A900 Ultra retails for US$ 300, available for pre-order at US$ 240. Meanwhile, the A900 is priced at US$ 200, currently 20% off at US$ 170.

Manila turns up the volume at COVE
Sony Philippines launched its ULT TOWER lineup at Beyond the Beat, with SB19 joining the ULT Squad.
Sound and style shared the floor at COVE Manila in Okada Manila. Sony Philippines opened its doors for Beyond the Beat: The Next-Level ULT POWER SOUND Experience.
The event marked the company’s biggest ULT POWER SOUND launch in the country, and Sony paced the program like an exclusive night out.
Stacked ULT Towers filled the space. Guests styled themselves with designer pieces from Alser Lumawag, and SB19 closed the evening as the newest Sony ULT Squad members.
MySony members from every tier joined industry guests while the new ULT TOWER lineup set the tempo.
The towers take center stage
Shuhei Sugihara, Sony Philippines’ President and Managing Director, opened the program.
Product Marketing Specialist Keira Ambubuyog then introduced the newest additions to the lineup.
Arbie Bandiling of Personal Audio Systems unveiled the latest ULT Squad video. The clip introduced the artists and personalities fronting the campaign.
The lineup features the ULT TOWER 5, ULT TOWER 7, and ULT TOWER MAX. The new series pairs large circular woofers and high-capacity cabinets with ULT DUCT technology.
This design delivers stronger low-frequency bass than earlier models. The ULT TOWER MAX leads the series, described as Sony’s most powerful bass speaker yet.
On another note, Sony pitches the ULT TOWER 7 as stage-worthy sound in a portable frame. Meanwhile, the compact ULT TOWER 5 targets smaller gatherings and features karaoke and DJ capabilities.
Experiential zones bring the sound to life
Guests explored the lineup across several interactive event zones. Step into the Beat paired an arcade-inspired setup with stacked ULT Towers and a dance pad. ULT Selfie Club handled photo ops.
Nearby, ULT Cover Star let guests style ULT Field speakers alongside designer pieces from Alser Lumawag. Here, the speakers served as chic fashion accessories.
The Bass District gave VIPs and influencers a private, nightlife-inspired lounge. Karaoke Lounges invited everyone else to grab a mic and test the party-ready towers firsthand.
The ULT Squad shows up
Fashion influencer and ULT Squad member Angelique Manto-Guison hosted the night.
A-Team opened the show with a high-energy routine before Carlos Serrano III took the stage. David Guison and Jacqueline Jala walked the stage with ULT Models in elevated fashion, and Jeremy G followed with a dynamic musical performance.
KAIA brought a youthful pop sound, while Maki delivered a set in his signature style.
SB19 closed the night, making their debut as the newest Sony ULT Squad members. Sony pairs its sound technology with the group’s influence in Filipino music. This collaboration positions the Squad as a platform for artists shaping contemporary music culture.
The ULT TOWER MAX, ULT TOWER 7, and ULT TOWER 5 are now available at Sony Centres and authorized dealers nationwide.

Jackery Explorer 300D: Power and portability in one
Uninterrupted workflows for digital nomads, freelance creatives, more
For digital nomads, freelance creatives, and even work-from-home professionals, staying productive on the move means carrying around multiple gadgets, cords, adapters, and power banks to survive the day.
Having to carry such weight, quite literally, is vital for maintaining workflow continuity.
For a more seamless experience and to have just one extra portable device to power all working parts, there’s the Jackery Explorer 300D.
Launched just last month, this grab-and-go offering from Jackery is designed for the modern lifestyle.
It moves away from Jackery’s traditional aesthetic with a sleek, speaker-like form factor. It weighs just 2.5 kilograms and is 64% smaller than standard 300W units in the market.
This ultra-compact size was made possible by a smart engineering choice of swapping bulky traditional AC wall outlets for highly efficient DC-only and USB-C ports — which also helps eliminate idle power loss.
With a 288Wh capacity, the Jackery Explorer 300D holds enough juice for up to nine power banks.
It can keep a Type-C fast-charging laptop for up to three to four full cycles, a Wi-Fi router alive for hours, and recharge cameras or drone batteries up to five times for a lengthy production day.
For smaller gadgets like smartphones and portable fans, the power station can juice them up for up to 22 times.
It can even charge five devices simultaneously with a total of three USB-C ports, a USB-A port, and a DC 12V car charger port.
All these ensure users are never disconnected, wherever they may set up their mobile office.
Another brilliant touch is the two-in-one shoulder strap that easily unclips to double as a heavy-duty 140W USB-C charging cable.
The everyday carry is available via Lazada and Shopee, and at the official Jackery kiosk in SM Fairview, as well as other partner stores.
