We’ve all been there. It is five minutes before a massive client pitch, and a cup of coffee decides to stage a coup right over your keyboard. Or, your battery flat-lines in a conference room devoid of a single wall outlet. Murphy’s Law dictates that anything that can go wrong, will go wrong—usually at the worst possible second.
For the modern Filipino professional juggling Manila traffic, back-to-back client meetings, and high-stakes deadlines, these aren’t just funny hypotheticals. They are daily hazards.
Enter ASUS Business Philippines with a reassuring philosophy: “No worries. We’re ready!”
Following its high-profile local launch on July 1, the brand has rolled out the ASUS ExpertBook Ultra Beats Murphy’s Law video series. To anchor this campaign, ASUS has tapped two of the country’s most respected names as official brand ambassadors: award-winning broadcast journalist and business consultant Rico Hizon, and multi-hyphenate actress, host, and entrepreneur Gabbi Garcia.
Together, they are putting the flagship business laptop through the ultimate stress test to prove how technology can keep pace with unscripted, chaotic realities.
When Zero Tolerance Meets Real-World Chaos
Every working professional carries a personal Murphy’s Law story, but few experience the stakes quite like Rico Hizon and Gabbi Garcia.
With a stellar career spanning nearly four decades across global news networks like CNBC Asia, BBC World News, CNN Philippines, and now the ABS-CBN News Channel, Rico Hizon understands high-pressure environments better than most. Whether broadcasting live or closing a corporate deal, his work demands absolute zero tolerance for device failure.
“When your career depends on being on-air and on time, your laptop cannot afford to fail,” shares Hizon, whose role in the video series highlights why seasoned professionals need bulletproof reliability.
On the other end of the spectrum is Gabbi Garcia, representing the dynamic new wave of Filipino professionals. Balancing production shoots, business enterprises, and continuous content creation, her days are delightfully unpredictable. She puts the ExpertBook Ultra through the grueling gauntlet of a fast-paced entrepreneurial lifestyle, proving that modern tech should accelerate your goals, never slow you down.
Why Murphy’s Law Stands No Chance Against the ExpertBook Ultra
Engineered for the moments when everything goes wrong, the ASUS ExpertBook Ultra ensures you never skip a beat. Here is how it outsmarts everyday mishaps:
- Spill-Proof Resilience: Finished a critical report just as liquid spills over the keyboard? The ExpertBook Ultra features a splash-resistant layout designed to channel fluids safely away from sensitive internal components.
- Built to Military Standards: Surviving transit from boardrooms to airports requires grit. This laptop has passed 24 rigorous MIL-STD-810H military-grade tests and 157 in-house ASUS durability checks, including drop tests from up to 120 cm.
- Power That Outlasts the Day: Forget hunting for wall outlets. Packing an impressive battery life of up to 26 hours, it also supports charging via standard USB Type-C powerbanks.
- Unrivaled AI Performance: Powered by up to Intel Core Ultra X9 Series 3 Processors with Intel Arc Pro graphics, vPro, and 50 NPU TOPs, it handles data dashboards, live calls, and heavy AI workloads simultaneously on independent lanes without stuttering.
- Scratch and Stain Defense: Encased in a 9H Nano Ceramic surface, the chassis is five times more scratch-resistant than industry standards and naturally repels fingerprints and smudges—keeping it pristine without a protective sleeve.
- Eye-Care Tandem OLED Display: The 14-inch 3K anti-glare display delivers vivid true blacks while adapting smoothly from sunlit offices to dim hotel rooms, protecting your eyes during grueling 12-hour workdays.
- Featherlight Portability: Weighing a mere 0.99 kg and measuring just 10.9 mm thin, it vanishes into your bag without adding any physical burden to your commute.
Enterprise Trust and Peace of Mind
For IT heads and business owners, reliability extends far beyond the physical shell. The ASUS ExpertBook Ultra is backed by a standard 3-year comprehensive warranty (covering the device, battery, and charger), which is extendable up to 5 years.
