Philips targets average Filipino consumers

 
Philips has recently introduced its new line of Philips GoGear MP3 and MP4 players looking at average Filipino consumers, particularly college students and young professionals.

“The Philips GoGear solution tries to cater the ABC market,” said Rico Gonzales, Philips Philippines’ chief executive officer and general manager of Country Operations for Philips Consumer Lifestyle. “It’s the broader market that we are trying to capture.”

The Philips GoGear line of MP3 and MP4 solutions were designed to get people going with the use of advanced technology and the ease of experience, said Gonzales.

One of the unique features of Philips GoGear MP3 and MP4 players was its FullSound technology, where its users can “listen to the songs on its fullest audio range,” according to Vidyut Kaul, customer marketing manager for Philips Consumer Lifestyle.

FullSound technology is a digital audio algorithm patented by Philips that refines audio output.

Among the GoGear’s six different models were SA2625, a portable digital music player comes with changeable front covers; SA2825, an audio player powered by Philips patented FullSound technology; SA1916, a model that allows users to enjoy hours of great MP3 and WMA music.

For multimedia entertainment, Philips introduced SA3015 (128x128 pixels resolution), SA3225 and SA3445 (220x176 pixels resolutions with FullSound technology features) audio and video players.

Philips has also teamed up with RealNetworks to offer its Filipino consumers with Rhapsody online music subscription service. Rhapsody allows consumers to download any type of music anytime.
