What does your phone really say about you?
Should you really be canceled just for using Android?
Years ago, you can tell a lot about a person based on the shoes they’re wearing. Nowadays, people judge you on the smartphone you’re using.
But can your smartphone really tell you who you are as a person? Apparently, it does according to a Cosmopolitan article about Mike Johnson from The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise being bad news for owning and using an Android phone. In the United States, iPhone users — particularly women — believe it’s a dealbreaker for Johnson in becoming the next Bachelor.
There’s this “rule” between iPhone users that “green bubbles don’t get replies,” discriminating Android users for basically using Android. Samsung launched a response to defend its user but some people believe it’s the inferiority complex talking.
As an Android user myself, I couldn’t help but jump into the fray. I feel like it’s pathetic that people judge someone else based on the smartphones they use. To finally put this issue to rest, I scanned our comments section and studied how people bash other people for their smartphone preference. I listed down how people perceive you based on the brand of your smartphone, and what you really are.
Samsung
How people see you: People who don’t want to use iPhones even if they can afford it, simply because they believe Samsung is superior.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
Huawei/Honor
How people see you: People who worship China and Chinese products and love spying and being spied on.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
Apple
How people see you: Social-climbing flocking dumdums who think they are elite and far superior to everyone else in the universe.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect, except if you judge people based on their financial capabilities and smartphone preference.
OnePlus
How people see you: People who want to think they’re part of some exclusive community, just like iPhone users.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
Xiaomi
How people see you: Poor people who can only afford cheap and budget smartphones.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
OPPO
How people see you: Narcissists in love with glass skin and faking their beauty with AI beauty mode.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
Vivo
How people see you: People who don’t know how to spend their money wisely by buying unreasonably priced smartphones.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
Realme
How people see you: Mobile photography enthusiasts who think a camera is all you need.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
Redmi/POCO
How people see you: People who think they’re cool for being able to buy a powerful smartphone on a budget.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
ASUS
How people see you: Someone who takes low-quality photos and doesn’t care because the battery is more important than cameras.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
Nokia
How people see you: Nostalgic people who still believe that their loyalty can help bring the brand back to its old glory.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
Sony
How people see you: Loyalists in love with technology yet refuse to accept change in all forms.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
LG
How people see you: Outdated audiophiles sticking around for the headphone jack when you can already buy dongles.
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
Other smartphone brands
How people see you: Who are you again?
What you really are: A decent human being worthy of love and respect.
By now, I think you’ve seen the pattern. No matter what smartphone you’re using, we are all worthy of love and respect. We deserve someone who isn’t shallow enough that they would base our worth through a smartphone, a pair of shoes, or lipstick.
These people who judge you — no matter how hot they are — might be good for one night only, but to be brutally honest: I wouldn’t bother screwing someone with that kind of character. After all, there are a lot of beautiful and gorgeous people in the world who would love you for who you are. Don’t lower your standards.

Dyson’s latest bundle is the power couple your floors have been waiting for
The answer to the wet-and-dry cleaning problem most of us have quietly accepted as just ‘life’
There’s a particular kind of domestic frustration that doesn’t get talked about enough: the moment you finish vacuuming, look down at your gleaming hard floors, and realize they still need mopping. Two tools. Two routines. One slightly deflated sense of accomplishment. Dyson, apparently, has been paying attention.
For a limited time, the brand is bundling two of its machines into a single, rather attractive package — the Dyson WashG1™ wet floor cleaner and the Dyson V8™ Slim cordless vacuum — positioning them as the complete answer to the wet-and-dry cleaning problem most of us have quietly accepted as just life.
Meet the pair
The WashG1™ is Dyson’s take on the wet floor cleaner, designed to wash hard floors in one streamlined pass rather than the traditional drag-and-splash method that mostly moves grime from one end of the room to the other. No buckets, no wringing, no staring at a suspiciously grey mop head and wondering when exactly it stopped being useful. It’s the kind of appliance that quietly earns its counter space — and then some.

Compact, cordless, and deceptively powerful: the V8™ Slim for when the mess is small but your standards aren’t.
The V8™ Slim, meanwhile, is the lighter, nimbler sibling of Dyson’s cordless line. Useful for the crumbs under the dining chair, the dust gathering behind the shelves, and every other small, daily chaos that a full-sized vacuum feels excessive for. Cordless and compact, it’s the machine you’ll actually pick up instead of sighing and walking past the mess.
Together, they cover the full floor care spectrum: the V8™ Slim handles the dry sweep, the WashG1™ follows with the wash. It’s a logical pairing, honestly — the kind that makes you wonder why you’ve been doing it any other way.
Why this Dyson combination matters
Hard floors, for all their aesthetic appeal, are unforgiving surfaces. Dust settles visibly. Spills linger. And vacuuming alone, as satisfying as the process can be, doesn’t quite address the layer of grime that accumulates on high-traffic areas over time. A wet cleaner handles what a vacuum can’t, and vice versa — which is precisely why owning both, rather than cycling through them separately across different shopping occasions, makes a certain kind of sense.
There’s also something to be said for the ease of a dedicated routine. When both machines live in the same home, cleaning stops being a production and starts being a rhythm — a quick pass with the V8™ Slim in the morning, a proper wash with the WashG1™ when the floors need it. Less deliberation, more just getting it done.
The numbers
Originally priced at PhP 74,800 for both, the bundle is currently available at PhP 45,900 — a saving of PhP 28,900. The mechanic is straightforward: purchase the WashG1™ and the V8™ Slim comes with it.
The promo runs from April 16 to 30, 2026, available at Dyson Stores nationwide. For those who’ve been watching these two machines from a careful distance, the window is narrow — but the value proposition is hard to argue with.

BINI, KATSEYE among top worldwide Google Searches ahead of Coachella
Coachella to kick off this weekend
BINI and KATSEYE topped recent Google Search trends ahead of their Coachella performances this month.
It’s clear that Coachella attendees are curious about the popular Philippine pop girl group, as well as the Los Angeles-based global girl group.
That’s aside from dedicated BLOOMs who are eager to see Aiah, Colet, Maloi, Gwen, Stacey, Mikha, Jhoanna, and Sheena take part in the legendary California music festival on Friday, April 10.
According to Google Trends data, global searches for the term “BINI Coachella” hit a perfect
score of 100 on April 8.
This indicates that the search term briefly became the highest-ranking search trend.
Meanwhile, “KATSEYE Coachella” scored 98 on April 7 on Google Trends, followed by a perfect 100 on April 8.
The timing of KATSEYE’s new single, “PINKY UP” couldn’t have been better as it dropped just a day before their Sahara stage set.
At the same time, the Filipino octet has also released “Blush” as their new comeback song — just hours ahead of KATSEYE.
As such, EYEKONS have also been scouring the interwebs for the global girl group.
And as these are worldwide search data, the recent Google Search trends somewhat prove these artists are effectively breaking through the global mainstream, and introducing their respective cultures to the global stage.

ITZY’s YUNA is Infinix’s first ever global brand ambassador
Infinix is in with YUNA in the scene
Infinix is entering a new era — and the brand is bringing one of K-Pop’s most sought-after stars along the ride.
A first for Infinix
In line with the launch of the latest NOTE 60 series, Infinix has also named YUNA of ITZY as its very first Global Brand Ambassador. The company calls this a bold step forward for both innovation and style.
For the record, this is the first time Infinix has tapped a global ambassador — and the choice makes sense. YUNA is known for her confidence, vibrant energy, and unapologetic self-expression. These qualities align closely with Infinix’s “Joy Tech, Beyond Limits” philosophy.
In a statement, YUNA shared her excitement about the partnership. She said she’s looking forward to connecting with fans in a new way and creating meaningful stories together with the brand.
For Infinix, this collaboration is more than just a celebrity endorsement. It signals a shift in how the company wants to position itself globally — not just as a smartphone maker, but as a lifestyle tech brand for expressive, tech-savvy youth.
The more, the merrier
The partnership goes along the debut of the NOTE 60 Series, further fueling Infinix’s move toward a more premium smartphone experience.
Like YUNA, the NOTE 60 line also brings notable names in the table:
- Powered by Snapdragon from Qualcomm
- Design collaboration with Pininfarina
- Audio tuned with JBL
It’s a clear attempt that Infinix wanted to elevate both performance and design by blending in flagship-level specs, more refined aesthetics, and immersive sound altogether.
Infinix says this launch also marks its expansion into more premium international markets.
With YUNA as the face of the brand, the company hopes to strengthen its appeal among younger users who want both powerful hardware and a device that matches their personality.
Rather than focusing purely on specs, Infinix is leaning into storytelling — highlighting how technology can spark creativity, joy, and individuality.
With the NOTE 60 Series and YUNA front and center, Infinix appears ready to redefine its brand identity on a global scale.
