vivo Philippines recently celebrated its 10th anniversary with a high-energy fan meet featuring NBA champion Isaiah Joe of the Oklahoma City Thunder. The event was held at the vivo Concept Store in SM Megamall and drew a large crowd of basketball fans and smartphone enthusiasts.
Fresh from the Thunder’s historic NBA Finals victory in June, Isaiah Joe brought a championship-level atmosphere to the venue. Attendees at the store and fans watching online were treated to a unique experience as the professional basketball player engaged with the vivo community, shared personal stories, and posed for selfies.
Building a Legacy Through Consistency and Trust
During an interview led by local sportscaster Anton Roxas, Isaiah Joe reflected on the team’s journey to winning their first NBA championship since the franchise’s move to Oklahoma City.
“Each and every game held its importance,” Isaiah said. “We played all the way to July and built up every game. By the time we got to the playoffs, nothing was new. Everything was a habit. We built a consistency that allowed us to play free and have fun, which led us to win the championship.”
Isaiah also shared a personal moment from the championship win that he wished he had captured on his phone.
“When the buzzer sounded, we were filled with excitement. But seeing my family on the court, that’s when the emotions hit. I started tearing up. It’s been a long time coming, and to finally achieve that with my family there, that’s a moment I’ll cherish forever,” he said.
He added, “Next time, I need my whole team to have vivo phones. When the buzzer sounds, we’ll zoom in on every player and capture every emotion.”
Beyond the Game: A Champion with Heart
Isaiah connected with fans by showing off his signature three-point celebration, which drew cheers from the crowd. He explained the inspiration behind the gesture, adding a pop culture twist.
“It’s an Iron Man reference. You have the mask with one hand and the repulsor with the other, but I turned it into a three. I’m a big Marvel fan,” he shared.
Despite the excitement surrounding his NBA championship, Isaiah’s sincerity stood out the most. When asked about his work in his hometown of Fort Smith, Arkansas, he spoke candidly about his commitment to giving back to the community.
“Growing up, we didn’t have NBA players coming to Fort Smith. Now, kids tell me I’m their inspiration, which is hard to believe. They’ve built me up to be who I am, so the least I can do is give back,” he shared, highlighting his efforts in supporting youth programs and initiatives like the Fort Kids Children’s Museum.
Fans Celebrate a Champion’s Warmth
Throughout the event, Isaiah took time to make every fan feel appreciated. He signed merchandise, chatted with attendees, and ensured each interaction felt personal. To commemorate the occasion, vivo handed out limited-edition merchandise during the signing session, giving every guest a keepsake from the celebration.
Capturing Every Victory with vivo X200 FE
The fan meet also showcased vivo’s newest release, the vivo X200 FE. Attendees used the device to take high-resolution photos with Isaiah, highlighting its performance and imaging features.
The vivo X200 FE includes a 50MP ZEISS Super Telephoto Camera with up to 100x zoom, a 6500mAh BlueVolt Battery, and 90W Flash Charge. As a compact flagship model, it is built to capture both milestone achievements and everyday moments with clarity and ease.
As vivo Philippines marks a decade of innovation and storytelling through mobile photography, the event served as a powerful reminder that every moment — from championship wins to casual meetups — deserves to be captured and remembered.
