    Vlogging or video blogging is redefining how users relate to their smartphones. With Filipinos now spending an average of 6.35 hours a week watching online videos, the fourth-highest average online viewing time per week next to India (7.12 hours), Singapore (6.62 hours) and the US (6.58 hours) according to a recent Limelight Networks report, videos are definitely a primary online content. YouTube currently ranks fourth among the online content consumed by Filipinos, and monthly active YouTube users in the country are forecast to hit 33.55 million by 2020.

    Some local vloggers have created a following in the different fields such as beauty and fashion, music, lifestyle, travel, and entertainment. Several even earn money from their video blogs.

    Vlogging is not only about sharing personal experiences or ideas about an issue or topic through an online video but is also about engaging a target viewer base. But what exactly are the secrets to a good and engaging vlog? Besides relatable content and creative inspiration, it pays to have the right video equipment, post-production software and online platforms.

Vloggers can highlight certain sounds while reducing background noise using the Audio Focus mode.

    The smartphone runs on a Li-ion 3090mAh battery, which promises long battery life for non-stop video recording. Wi-Fi smartphone allows vloggers to post videos as and when or where they please.

    Share both sides of the story for great storytelling

    Nokia’s latest flagship Android-powered smartphone, the Nokia 8, delivers a new exciting way of storytelling. With its Dual-Sight technology, vloggers can capture both sides of every story using the front and back cameras simultaneously.   

    This technology, a first in mobile phones, is perfect for vloggers who would like to show their viewers what is happening while sharing their opinion or ideas at the same time.
