Pacquiao’s HP Veer Phone TV Commercial

06/02/2011 by bariles in Pacquiao News with 10 Comments - 1,325 Views

Thanks to Bariles’ friend, Teacher Lyle, he was able to discover a latest YouTube sensation – that of a clip of Manny Pacquiao’s new TV Commercial, this time endorsing a phone brand.

The phone?  HP Veer!

Here is a description of HP Veer from the HP site:

For anyone who wants a smartphone that packs the features they crave without the extra size they don’t, HP today introduced the powerfully small HP Veer smartphone running HP webOS.

Veer is one of the products HP announced today to introduce a unique experience for customers around connected mobility. It’s one of the building blocks in HP’s vision to seamlessly connect all your worlds through the power of HP webOS.

Veer is the smallest webOS phone to date – the size of a credit card and no thicker than a deck of cards – yet it offers the higher-end features of a smartphone, such as easy messaging and access to apps, social networks and the web, including support for Adobe® Flash® Player 10.1 beta in the browser for access to rich, Flash-based web content.(1)

It has a full slide-out keyboard, vivid touchscreen and access to thousands of webOS apps(2) in a surprisingly small, modern package that fits easily into a pocket or purse. It’s everything a smartphone should be, but in a smarter size.

So without skipping a beat, here is 8-Division World Boxing Champion Manny Pacquiao in his new TVC touting the wonders of the HP Veer Phone. Closely, closely listen to him.

This is the first time that Manny Pacquiao spoke in straight english in a commercial and we must say, he did just fine!

And besides, his million-wattage smile was used to the hilt here with HP banking on his reputation as one of the nicest and most well-liked sports heroes alive today!

    International advertisers treat him like a respectable sportsman (Adidas and this HP) while local advertisers make fun of his manner of speaking. Not saying that it’s all bad, jut looking at two marketing strategies employed using the same medium — the Pacman. It’s called the Stickiness factor.

    This endorsement was for LEBRON JAMES (initially) but since he was unavailable at that time (busy playing in the NBA playoffs against the Boston Celtics), HP management decided to pick our own MANNY PACQUIAO as HP Veer endorser… Lupet!

    Moreover, Manny is also endorsing for a San Antonio, USA based company for their fruit and vegetable products…. GRABE na ni!

    Mabuhay ka MANNY!
