EDITOR'S PICK
Notably GREAT
Do you prefer
using a pen to
write down your
thoughts instead
of typing them?
Are you the artsy
type who spends
his or her free
time sketching or
drawing doodles?
IF YOUR ANSWER
IS ‘YES’ TO AT LEAST
ONE OF THOSE QUESTIONS
AND YOU’RE NOW LOOKING
FOR A GORGEOUS AND
POWERHOUSE ANDROID
PHABLET TO BE YOUR
DAILY DRIVER, THEN
THE FRESHLY LAUNCHED
SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE5
WOULD BE PERFECT
FOR YOU!
The follow-up to last year’s bestselling Samsung Galaxy Note4,
the Galaxy Note5 comes with all
the best features and technical
specifications that Samsung could
have given a smartphone-tablet
hybrid model this year.
The device flaunts a beautiful
exterior crafted from anodized
aluminum sandwiched between
two sheets of scratch-resistant
glass. This design identity and
build give the phone an air of
both durability and elegance.
At its heart, Samsung Galaxy
Note5 runs its TouchWiz-flavored
Android 5.1 Lollipop operating
system with the powerful 64-Bit
Octa Core Exynos 7420 chipset,
has 4GB of RAM for seamless
multitasking, and comes with
32GB of internal storage where
you can keep photos and clips
taken using the phablet’s 16
MegaPixel main camera at the
back, 5 MP selfie cam in front
Does your
profession often
require you to
sign or write
comments on
documents or
photos and to
quickly share
them with your
team?
with Beauty mode, and 4K video
recorder.
But if there’s one feature that
sets this handset apart from
all others, it’s definitely the
redesigned S-Pen stylus that you
can use to draw or to write notes
on the device’s glass screen. The
pen is neatly tucked at the rear
of the Galaxy Note5 and unlike
in previous models, you can now
easily eject it just by pushing
the exposed tip with your finger.
Doing so activates the innovative
spring-loaded mechanism, which
makes its first appearance in
Samsung’s Note series via this
model.
This phablet is pre-loaded with
software and applications that
allow you to make the most of the
S-Pen. There’s the Air Command
menu - which automatically pops
up when you eject the stylus with
one satisfying click – presenting
you with a full range of stylus-
usage options. Aside from the
familiar Action Memo, S Note,
and Smart Select, Note5 comes
with the new Screen Write feature
that captures full website articles
as one seamless image that
you can edit or doodle on using
the pen. There’s also Screen-Off
Memo that lets you instantly
write notes on the phone's display
without having to unlock it. This is
particularly useful when you need
to quickly jot down numbers or
items as you hear them or to write
down ideas as inspiration strikes
you at random times during the
day – something that creative
people usually experience.
Considering all of its stunning
features, Samsung Galaxy Note5
is definitely one of the best
Android smartphones that you can
own this year. And what’s great
is that you can now get it via the
fully-customizable Smart Postpaid
All-In Plan 1200 with just Php 649
cash-out per month!

WHAT’S
TOP
TECH
NEW
Today’s generation
knows that you
shouldn’t ever hold
back in showing the
world who you are
and what you’re
capable of—just as
these sleek Samsung
phones below do.

All
ON YOU
FOR THE MILLENIAL WHO
NEEDS THINGS DONE FAST
You don’t settle for anything but
the best. So to keep up with your
demands, you know that you need
a phone as capable as you are. You
want one that’s speedy, full-featured
and at the same time, knows
how to make a statement with its
appearance. That sounds like the
Samsung’s new flagship phablet, the
Galaxy Note 5. Moving forward from
the Note 4, the Note 5 now features a
curved glass back as opposed to last
year’s imitation leather finish. It has
slimmer bezels and it’s smaller by a
few millimetres than the old device,
which makes it easier to hold. It’s
beautiful with its 5.7-inch Quad HD
Super Amoled screen, which affords
you enough room to accommodate
your fast-paced lifestyle. Storage is
not a problem as well with its 32GB
memory. The S-Pen, which you can
get with a simple pop-and-click from
its compartment, makes it a breeze
to scribble down notes quickly and
lets you fill up a PDF file with no extra
software needed. Wireless charging is
also built-in to help you minimize the
clutter in your already busy lifestyle—
although with its long-lasting
3000mAH battery, you’ll last the
day before needing to find an outlet.
Doesn’t that sound like a phone that’s
just as efficient as you are?
Get it with: Smart’s All-In Plan 1200
with a cash-out of just P649 per month.
With A Smart Postpaid All-In Plan
1200, you’ll be able to shape Smart’s
service according to your needs. Mix
and match P1200 worth of call, text

FOR THE AESTHETICALLYINCLINED
When you’re a designer, it’s not
enough that the object you’re
designing is functional, it also
matters that this object looks
stunning as well. That’s probably
why the Samsung Galaxy S6
Edge + has been gaining rave
reviews from today’s class of
creatives. They know a good phone
when they see one, and the S6
Edge + is an absolute highpoint
in today’s smartphone design. The reasons:
its bold, one-of-a-kind curved screen edge that
makes it look like it has no borders, its stunning
all-metal frame, and its sheer size (it has a
5.7-super AMOLED). It turns heads surely, but the
best part is that it has a function too: the “edges”
display and let you quickly access five individual
favourite contacts and five favourite apps.
That’s the meaning of good design. It has
both style and substance. Adding to
the substance? It’s power-packed.
It’s got two quad-core chips
working in tandem (one’s rated
at 1.5GHz and the other at 2.1
GHz) and 4 GB of RAM, powered
capably by a 3000maH battery that
lasts 16 hours on casual use.
Get it with: Smart’s Surf Plus Plan
1999 with P7,500 one-time cash-out.
With the plan, you get 9 GB of data
allowance, 150 minutes of calls and
200 texts to all networks, one free value
added service, and one month’s worth
of Gadget Shield! always in control!
FOR THE SELFIE ENTHUSIAST
A good number among us look at
a phone’s photo- and selfie-taking
capabilities. If the phone can’t take
crisp, clear photos, then that’s
immediately a deal-breaker. That
isn’t the case with the Galaxy A7,
a phone that’s equipped with the
kind of cameras and features that
any selfie-lover would love to snap up
right away. First, the cameras. It has a 13-megapixel
shooter on the back, which takes the best photos in
Samsung’s “A” range of phones. Colors appear very natural,
the details are very sharp, and has flash photography tech that
won’t make you look like you’ve fallen into a pit of powder. On
the front is a 5-megapixel camera that’s been empowered with
two important features: auto-selfie and ultra-wide shots. Its
106-degree ultra-wide shot feature lets you cram more of your
friends into a group shot! You can even use the back camera for
selfies easily as it boasts a “Face-Detecting Selfie Alarm,” which
lets the rear cam shoot a selfie automatically once it detects a
face in the frame. Convenient, right? With these selfie-oriented
features and 1.5 GHz processor, 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of built-in
memory, expandable SD memory of up to 64GB and a 5.5.-inch
Super AMOLED screen, it’s truly the phone for the selfie addict.
Get it with: Smart’s Surf Plus Plan 1499 (30 months). With the
plan, you get 7 GB of data allowance, 60 minutes of calls and
120 texts to all networks, one free value added service, and one
month’s worth of Gadget Shield!

COVER STORY
It’s T-Swift’s world and we’re just living in it!
We give you a rundown why she’s the coolest girl
on the planet right now.
THE QUEEN OF POP MADONNA
PROCLAIMED HER LOVE FOR TAYLOR.
"I like Taylor Swift. I think she writes some
really catchy pop songs. Can't get them out of
my head,” Madonna admitted in an interview
last January. Taylor got too happy with this
news and posted on Tumbler, "Thanks now I'm
dead." She also got to perform with the queen
last March at the iHeartRadio Music Awards.
#WildestDreams
THE GIRL KNOWS HOW TO
TREASURE HER LONGTIME BFF.
She graced the red carpet of the Grammys
with her best friend Abigail and introduced
her to the media during several interviews
that night.
SHE REUNITED WITH KANYE AND
IT FELT SO GOOD.
At this year’s Grammy Awards, Taylor finally
patched things up with Kanye after six years!
A collab is also on its way, so they say. She
may be having Bad Blood with others, but she
proved that time heals really deep cuts.
EVERYBODY WENT CRAZY FOR
TAYLOR’S ‘’STYLE’’
It didn’t matter if it’s another song for one of
Taylor’s ex because they’re never ever getting
back together, anyway; the song was a real
catch—LSS-worthy! And let’s not forget the
hot appearance of Dominic Sherwood on the
video.
TAYLOR SCORED A
SPOT ON VOGUE’S COVER.
And did we mention she’s with her BFF Karlie
Kloss on the cover? Anna Wintour-approved!
SMART / MOVE MAGAZINE / 8
everybody can’t help but fall in love with
this power couple.
THE EPIC CAST OF
“BAD BLOOD” MUSIC VIDEO.
The cast: Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Karlie
Kloss, Kendrick Lamar, Martha Hunt, Jessica
Alba, Serayah, Lena Dunham, Hailee Steinfeld,
Ellie Guolding, Gigi Hadid, Hayley Williams,
Zendaya, Lily Aldridge, Ellen Pompeo,
Mariska Hargitay, Cara Delevingne, and Cindy
Crawford. Yes, all these A-list stars in a fourminute music video. Only you, Taylor Swift.
SHE STOLE THE SCENE
AT THE BRIT AWARDS LAST FEB.
This girl owned the stage and wowed
everyone during her performance. The cherry
on top of this event? She took home the
Best International Solo Female Artist Award.
If there’s one thing you should know about
Taylor Swift, there are definitely no blank
spaces in her career, just pure flying colors and
more fabulous journeys ahead of her.
SHE’S ON A ROLL ON THE HONOR ROLL.
This girl-on-fire was honored at the Academy
of Country Music Awards. Her mom Andrea
was the one who presented her this groundbreaking award. We’re sure Andrea was the
proudest mom on earth during that time.
SHE THREW A STAR-STUDDED BBQ PARTY
LAST JULY 4 LIKE IT’S NO BIG DEAL.
On the guest list: Calvin Harris, Ed Sheeran,
Martha Hunt, Serayah, Brit Maack, Cody
Lewis, the Haim sisters, Gigi Hadid and Joe
Jonas. She topped it off with a cookout, lots
of cute bikinis, giant inflatables, and a bunch
of American flag-inspired party add-ons.
And everybody was feeling 22 all over again.
#BestBBQEver
EVERYBODY CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF
TAYLOR SWIFT AND CALVIN HARRIS’
LOVE STORY.
From their cute photos during her 4th of
July BBQ party to their sweet moment at
the Billboard Music Awards in Vegas to their

Instagram-worthy
moments with
#TokYOLO
Up for something old and something new
at the same time? Tokyo perfectly fuses brightness
with calmness, modern with traditional, and
fast-paced with ease. On top of your itinerary: go
crazy over all the countless Japanese restaurants
that serve authentic sushi, ramen, noodles, bento
meals, and rice dishes. Second on the list is to
check out the beautiful cherry blossoms that
bloom around March to April. Meiji Shrine, Yoyogi
Park, and Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden also
deserve a spot in your itinerary. Love cats? Spend
an afternoon at Cat Café, Nekorobi, Ikebukuro.
