The @HuaweiZA #HuaweiP40lite5G Must-have Tool For #SocialMedia and #Gaming Fanatics

Hi Friends, 

The prospect of 5G is an exciting one, and as confusing as the technology can often seem, its benefits are simply game-changing. Not only will 5G networks and devices enable us to achieve technological feats like lower latency, network slicing and greater transmission speeds, but these will also fundamentally shift the way we consume and interact with social media content, entertainment and gaming. 

Given the importance and topicality of 5G in the South African market in particular, many network providers are rolling out 5G networks across the country. To match this expansion of 5G networks, various tech companies have been steadily increasing their product offerings when it comes to 5G-enabled devices. Although this is a huge stride for South Africa, as 5G availability can be seen as an accelerant to digital transformation, these 5G-enabled devices are usually flagship smartphones, so are unaffordable to many South Africans.

However, as a bold disruptor and relentless innovator in the tech space, Huawei has recently unveiled an affordable, mid-range 5G-enabled device – the HUAWEI P40 lite 5G. This device brings 5G technologies and futuristic hardware to the everyday South African, and is almost certain to be a hit among South Africa’s youth, given the potential that this device has to unlock a new realm of capabilities for their gaming and social media needs.

Here are some reason why the HUAWEI P40 lite 5G is a device that is bound to completely change your gaming and social media experience.

1. Unparalleled 5G performance for a seamless gaming and social media experience

The HUAWEI P40 lite 5G is powered by the Kirin 820 5G SoC, which is integrated with a 5G modem and supports NSA network mode, empowering it to cover over eight frequency bands. This means that users will experience a consistently reliable and extensive 5G network coverage. In some areas where ordinary smartphones can’t receive 5G signals, the HUAWEI P40 lite 5G can still work on a 5G network smoothly, meaning that gaming fanatics and social media butterflies will be able to seamlessly interact with their content.

The smartphone also enables a stable download speed and lower latency, meaning that the latest games can be downloaded with ease and you can keep abreast of the latest social media trends on the go, regardless of where you are. The Kirin 820 SoC enables the HUAWEI P40 lite 5G to consume less power and generates less heat for a more stable experience when running games and 5G apps. The phone’s power-saving nature is further enhanced by the large 4000mAh battery, and supports 40W HUAWEI SuperCharge. The HUAWEI P40 lite 5G can charge to 70% in half an hour – offering a safe yet reliable charging experience to bring uninterrupted performance. This is imperative to online gamers and South African youth, who need to be able to access the world of social media anywhere, and anytime.

2. A super camera setup for high-quality visual content.

The HUAWEI P40 lite 5G is the perfect tool for a social media feed that looks like it was curated by a professional photographer, as the device offers you not two or three, but four main cameras in the rear setup. This 64MP Hi-res AI Quad Camera, is a master of hi-res photography in all kinds of settings, and is also great for shooting videos in 4K (very high resolution).

This AI Quad camera set up is comprised of a 64MP main camera, which is fitted with a f/1.8 aperture, 0.8μm pixel size and a 1/1.7-inch sensor, which is capable of capturing more light and details. The 16MP front camera supports Super Night Selfie and hardware-level noise reduction. This means that front camera of the HUAWEI P40 lite 5G is able to get you those stunning insta-worthy pics, whether you’re snapping them in the day or in the evening.

The smartphone’s 120° Ultra-wide Angle Lens enables you to get stunning wide angle shots, whether they’re of rolling landscape images, group photos (now that we can see family again) or portrait orientation images. With this lens, you can easily create outstanding visual content, empowering you to position yourself as a social media professional and even influencer, which can potentially open the doors to you earning money from your posts.

The Macro Lens of the device allows you to capture anything up to 4cm away from the lens, and the handy Bokeh Lens allows you to blur out backgrounds in a natural manner, while giving undivided attention and detail to the subject of the photos, further bolstering the quality and appearance of your social media feeds.

3. Superior hardware for a gaming beast

While many smartphones offer gaming features on the side, it is rare for such detail to be paid to a device’s gaming functionality. This is another reason why the HUAWEI P40 lite 5G will completely change your gaming experience, as it comes equipped with Mali-G57 GPU, delivering a significantly improved gaming and entertainment experience for users. The new GPU Turbo technology allows the system, CPU and GPU collaborate to enhance the overall processing efficiency and deeply optimises the gaming experience of the device. Thanks to GPU Turbo, the HUAWEI P40 lite 5G can run graphically demanding games at a high frame rate smoothly, efficiently and effortlessly. Couple this with the seamless gaming access that the Kirin 820 5G SoC offers, and you have yourself a device is designed with the purpose of mobile gaming at its core.

The HUAWEI P40 lite 5G can be purchased from the Huawei online store (www.huaweistore.co.za) and selected MTN and Vodacom outlets at an RRP of just R9,499.

This smartphone comes in Space Silver and Midnight Black with 15GB free cloud storage for 12 months and Huawei Video FilmBox access for three months, valid until 31 December 2020.

Be one of the first 1,000 people to purchase the HUAWEI P40 lite 5G and you’ll get 1GB data & R500 airtime from The Unlimited. Ts&Cs apply. (Promotional vouchers are redeemable on the HUAWEI AppGallery)

#SouthAfrica Cinema Industry Reveals Reopening Campaign #GoBIGagain

Hi Friends, 

Cinema has a message for South Africa: “It’s time to go BIG again!” 

Following the confirmation that South African cinemas will be reopening this coming Friday, 28 August – a consolidated industry campaign titled “It’s Time To Go BIG Again,” involving all key role-players, launched on TV, Digital Outdoor, Radio, Online, and through social media this past weekend. Cinemas in South Africa have been closed for the past 5 months due to COVID-19 lockdown regulations, resulting in a complete shutdown of all their business operations. 

The campaign’s central point of engagement is online via the GoBIGagain.co.za microsite and promoted with the #GoBIGagain hashtag – containing detailed information on all cinemas’ health & safety protocols, local and international industry news, direct links to the various cinema groups in Southern Africa and more information on the movies heralding the return of the Big Screen Experience to cinemas. It’s primarily about re-launching the unique appeal of cinemas, to again screen movies with larger-than-life quality in a way that movies were meant to be seen and experienced. 

“We are very excited to roll out our ‘Go BIG Again’ campaign, which is the culmination of a coordinated industry effort to establish a responsible reopening strategy for the full spectrum of the local cinema business. All of South Africa’s cinema exhibitors, film distributors and international studio representatives, along with other industry stakeholders, joined hands and have been collaborating for the past few months to effectively map out the reopening of the industry on non-competitive terms. We are also very grateful for the overwhelming support from our partners in the media and entertainment community, who have demonstrated keen interest over the past few months and teamed up with us to launch this campaign nationwide. It’s time to go BIG again!” say the members of the South African cinema industry committee. 

One of the campaign’s core objectives is to assure movie fans that all those cinemas reopening will include the preventative measures as required by governmental regulations, to keep cinema staff and cinemagoers safe and healthy. The campaign also reignites awareness around the magic of the movies and includes glimpses of past and present box office hits, cinematic classics with impact, audience favourites, the power of South African film and other striking content which define the essence of watching movies on a Big Screen with premium quality sound in a cinema. 

Some of the major new movie releases lined up for cinemas over the next few months include Warner Bros’ TENET; Twentieth Century Studios’ NEW MUTANTS; Disney’s MULAN; Universal’s TROLLS: WORLD TOUR and the new James Bond film, NO TIME TO DIE; Marvel Studios’ BLACK WIDOW; Sony’s CONNECTED; independent studio titles such as AVA from Filmfinity and UNHINGED from Empire Entertainment; as well as locally produced films FLATLAND (Indigenous Film Distribution) and TOORBOS (Filmfinity). 

Based on current governmental regulations and guided by advice from the Department of Health, the World Health Organisation and internationally recognised industry experts - some of the key health and safety protocols being implemented in Nu Metro, Ster-Kinekor and other cinemas are listed below: 

• Online bookings in advance are encouraged. 
• Mask-wearing will be mandatory for all customers and staff, and can only be taken off while eating or drinking inside the cinema auditoria. 
• Temperature checks will be done on arrival for all customers at access points to cinema complexes. 
• Customers will have direct access to hand sanitiser at cinema access points, and are required to sanitise on entrance to venues. Various in-cinema messages encourage regular hand sanitising and other precautionary requirements. 
• Social distancing measures will be implemented for cinema foyers and seating inside cinema auditoria – to ensure a physical distance of 1.5m is maintained between people at all times in all areas. 
• Access control management and a limit on ticket sales per movie show will be applied to ensure the required venue capacity is capped at the required minimum per theatre or public space within a cinema complex at all times. 
• All cinemas will be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected before and after each and every show. 
• All high-touch point areas such as kiosks, self-service terminals, serving counters, door handles, rails, benches, booths and bathroom areas will be disinfected on a regular basis daily. 
• All staff have been retrained in effective and frequent hand-washing – targeting fronts, backs, wrists and between fingers – with soap and water for at least 20 seconds every time.

#TheLifesWayReviews - CLASS OF '83 @NetflixSA #Crime #Movie #ClassOf83

Hi Friends, 

Class of 83 is directed by Atul Sabharwal and produced by Red Chillies Entertainment especially Gauri Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Gaurav Verma. Class of 83 is based on the novel The Class of 83 written by S. Hussain Zaidi and published in October 2019. The movie is released on Netflix OTT platform on 21st August 2020. This is their 3rd collaboration after Bard of Blood and Betaal also on the same platform. 

The movie stars Bobby Deol as Vijay Singh who is the Dean of the Police Training Academy in Nashik and has been posted there as a punishment because of his heroic acts to grab the gangsters of the city. He is posted there by the politicians who had collaborations with the Gangsters of the Bombay at that time. He tries to clean the system from inside using his own methodology by recruiting the people and commanding them to directly kill the gangsters and clean their tracks too. 

Dean finds 5 people from the bottom of the class of 83 who comes for Police Training and recruits them to work with him to clean the system. This movie is the story of their training, missions, ego and greed as these 5 young recruits go through life. The movie is the story of all these 5 people with each other and played by Bhupendra Jadawat as Pramod Shukla, Hitesh Bhojraj as Vishnu Varde, Ninad Mahajani as Laxman Jadhav, Prithvik Pratap as Janardan Surve and finally Sameer Paranjape as Aslam Khan. The story is narrated in the voice of Aslam Khan and also his point of view to take yours through the story. The story takes a turn when Vijay is re-introduced into the mainstream system to catch and bring back all the 5 of these together again to catch the don he is after. 

Coming to the acting and direction, Bobby Deol looks good in his dean role and as a police inspector too but has only 2 expressions in the whole movie. The others don't get much more chance to other than a scene or two to showcase their talent. The five recruits do showcase some of the good moments as a part of their bonding but the overall plot has nothing to offer as you already know what is going to happen. I have been a fan of all the books written by S. Hussain Zaidi and have read a lot of them on various DONs he has written.

Anup Soni plays the politician Manohar Patkar and Joy Sengupta plays Raghav Desai who plays one of the best friends of Vijay. Also, the movie is shot in this brownish kind of effects and filter to bring back the old era but to me it was irritating. I think it would be great if you would rather watch Ajay Devgn's Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai as there is nothing that comes out of this movie in terms of any historical significant strategies used by the police, only 1 case is able to generate your interest and also one kind of network in terms of Telegrams and Postman's from GPO which is new in this movie. Overall, it's a one-time tiring watch but if you are a fan of Bobby Deol, do watch it! RATING 2.5/5

Cheers!!!
