Converge Vision showcased

The ‘Vision Xperience Box’  by Converge offers 65 local and international TV channels for an additional P99 per month on top of the monthly plan, or P 299 a month for 82 channels.

For photographers, the world is their creative backyard because they go wherever their subject takes them. They leave home and set foot towards the known (and the unknown) in their pursuit of capturing the big, defining moments. For family man Dux Carvajal, this jet setting lifestyle is a balancing act of seeing the world but keeping things grounded at home. Thankfully, a strong, stable internet connection by Converge keeps him connected to his family wherever he is and affords his family the digital means to live, work, and play while he’s away.

“Every other week there’s an event for my major client, which is often in Bangkok, then one week back here in the Philippines, then Qatar, back to Bangkok, then maybe Singapore. I’ve been a photographer for close to 15 years now. The main thing I shoot is sports, mostly mixed martial arts and that gives me the opportunity to travel around different countries every other week. I’m very blessed to be able to do this for a living,” says Dux, giving a glimpse of the lifestyle he’s taken on as a sports photographer.

“Being a sports photographer is an incredible job because you get to capture history. You get to capture the moments and the emotions. You are making history through your images,” he adds.

As if that’s not enough, he manages his own events company which offers photography as a logical accompaniment to the services of the company. This suite of services is an expansion of his skills in public relations, where he and his wife both started out.

“I started my career doing PR for a sports channel where I was able to travel with a sports company and experienced their events. It got me thinking maybe I could do that locally. I partnered with some of my friends and started an events company.  Our first clients, who are actually still our clients today, are mostly international ones so business has been good,” he explained.

In addition to a stable business and a job bringing him to different corners of the world, Dux has been able to build a happy little nest too with his wife and three kids in Quezon City.

When he’s not out shooting for mounting an event, he’s at home enjoying quality time watching streaming channels or local content via Vision, the all-in-one entertainment box offered by Converge in partnership with affiliate cable company, Pacific KabelNet. Vision is a value-added service for Converge subscribers, providing access to a broader selection of local and international television channels for a monthly fee.

“For us, the main benefit of Vision is, it converted our non-smart TV to a smart tv. It’s a plug and play device and once it’s been set up, all the channels are there. And the TV is suddenly a smart tv, you get your Disney Plus, Spotify, YouTube and browsing through the TV channels content you get a lot of content and there’s BlastTV too.”

The ‘Vision Xperience Box’  by Converge offers 65 local and international TV channels for an additional P99 per month on top of the monthly plan, or P 299 a month for 82 channels. This box includes Kapamilya channels as well as international news and entertainment channels like HBO, Cinemax, USA Today, and many more.

Aside from these channels, subscribers have quick, one-click access to Google apps, online games, and OTT apps like HBO Go, Amazon Prime, YouTube, and Spotify.

“There’s content for everyone: my daughters are always on Disney+ for the Disney princesses, my son watches science shows, my wife is a big K-drama fan, and for me, it’s mostly the sports channels,” he shares.

With the successive speed boosts the plans have undergone since 2016, subscribers can all the more take advantage of their speeds, using their connection for gaming and work at the same time. This is yet another benefit Dux enjoys with his Converge connection, as he sends over hefty image files to his clients abroad.

“Before, that was my worry. It’s embarrassing for the clients, you’re just downloading a 10Mb file, and yet, it’s taking too long. My clients are abroad, so they’re used to lightning-fast speeds. They can’t understand what’s taking me so long. But because of the speeds that we get through Converge, I’m very confident to now say, ‘Hey, I can transfer these files right away.’ The work gets done quickly, even the workflow as well,” he ended.

Dux is subscribed to the FiberX 2500 of Converge, giving him equal upload and download speeds, so he can experience uninterrupted internet access while streaming movies, downloading large files, and even playing online games.
