Apple Stands Firm on Diversity Policies, Defends DEI Program
- Diversity Debate: Apple faces calls to end its DEI program but pushes back.
- Shareholder Vote: Proposal to terminate DEI will be decided in February.
- Big Tech Trends: Meta and other firms roll back DEI efforts under pressure.
Apple has always been committed to creating a more inclusive world, and their latest move underscores this commitment. Facing opposition to their Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs, Apple’s board is urging investors to reject a proposal seeking to end these initiatives.This proposal, led by the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR), claims DEI programs expose companies to unnecessary risks. However, Apple insists that their DEI efforts align with their values and drive innovation.The Pressure To End DEI
The proposal by NCPPR argues that DEI policies can lead to legal, reputational, and financial risks. The group cites the 2023 Supreme Court ruling against affirmative action in universities to bolster their argument.Major corporations like Meta, Amazon, and Walmart have already scaled back their DEI initiatives. Meta, for instance, justified its decision with a memo citing a “shifting legal and policy landscape,” signaling a trend in corporate America.While Apple maintains its commitment to DEI, the external environment grows increasingly complex. With Donald Trump returning to the White House this month and conservative groups gaining traction, companies are facing mounting pressure to align with policies that roll back DEI efforts.Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta, for example, has already taken steps to mend fences with conservative groups. This includes a $1 million donation to Trump’s inauguration fund and the removal of fact-checkers from its social media platforms. Such moves suggest a strategic shift as firms try to balance political pressures with their corporate values.But Apple seems determined to hold its ground. With its annual general meeting set for February 25, 2024, all eyes will be on the shareholder vote to decide the fate of its DEI programs.Apple’s Counterargument
Apple’s board has responded firmly, stating, “The proposal is unnecessary as Apple already has a well-established compliance program.” They also criticized the suggestion as an attempt to micromanage the company’s policies.
Tim Cook and Apple’s leadership emphasize that diversity isn’t just about compliance—it’s a core value. For Apple, fostering an inclusive culture is essential to driving innovation and creating impactful technology.For a company that has consistently positioned itself as a leader in innovation and ethics, backing down on diversity programs would signal a departure from its vision of inclusivity.What’s at Stake
If Apple shareholders side with NCPPR, the company could join other corporations in rolling back diversity initiatives. Such a move would significantly impact Apple’s reputation as a leader in inclusivity.Apple, however, remains resolute in its commitment to DEI. As Tim Cook often says, “Diversity drives innovation,” a message central to the company’s vision of creating technology for everyone.As the February vote approaches, Apple’s bold stance sets it apart in an era where many corporations are retreating from diversity efforts. Whether their shareholders will back them remains to be seen, but Apple’s leadership continues to champion inclusivity with conviction. -

HONOR X9c 5G Review: Toughest Smartphone Built for Filipino Workers and Professionals
For many of us, a smartphone isn't just a gadget, it's a tool that gets us through the day and enables us to perform well in our jobs. Hence, finding a smartphone that can endure the wear and tear of daily life isn’t just a luxury – it’s a necessity.Whether you're a corporate professional managing meetings on the go, a delivery rider racing against time, or an engineer working on-site, you need a device that can keep up with your demanding lifestyle.
The all-new HONOR X9c 5G, which is the successor to the wildly popular HONOR X8b, aims to do just that with its robust design, impressive specs, and game-changing durability. However, does it really live up to the promise of being an ultra-tough, everyday companion? I recently put this smartphone to the test, and here's my take on its performance.Price and Availability in the Philippines
The HONOR X9c 5G offers a premium experience without the sky-high price tag. Available in select stores across the Philippines, it is competitively priced for those seeking a powerful yet durable smartphone. At just PHP 16,999 for the 12GB RAM and 256GB storage variant, the HONOR X9c is an attractive option for professionals who want something that works hard without breaking the bank.On top of the very attractive SRP of the HONOR X9c 5G, HONOR Philippines is offering an exciting promo where pre-order customers from January 10 to 24, 2025, stand a chance to win a sleek Rolex Datejust watch, making this handset's launch one of the most talked-about events of the year.With its release, HONOR also brings an exciting new level of availability, ensuring that Filipinos nationwide can access this powerhouse of a smartphone.Quick Unboxing and Package Contents
Unboxing the HONOR X9c is an experience in itself. The phone comes neatly packaged with all the essentials. It ships in this plain white box with the image of the handset as well as the model name printed prominently on the cover.
I like the minimalistic, no nonsense design of the packaging of HONOR smartphones.
Inside, you will find the following items:HONOR X9c 5G unit66W SuperCharge adapterUSB Type-C cableSIM ejector toolProtective case (which is always a nice touch, especially for a phone that’s built for tough environments)Quick start guide
The moment you hold HONOR X9c 5G straight out of the box, you can feel the quality. There's something reassuring about the way the phone feels in your hand, indicating it’s built for durability right from the start.Watch my quick unboxing of the HONOR X9c 5G along with my exclusive interview with Mr. Eason de Guzman, Digital Marketing Manager of HONOR Philippines, and the official PH price reveal of this smartphone here:Design: Sleek Yet Built for Toughness
At first glance, the HONOR X9c 5G might look like a standard flagship phone with its sleek Titanium finish. However, it’s more than just a pretty face.
Weighing 189 grams and measuring 7.98mm thick, it strikes a balance between being robust yet comfortable to hold. The three available color options—Titanium Purple, Titanium Black, and Jade Cyan—add a touch of elegance to its tough exterior.
What I have here is the HONOR X9c 5G in Titanium Black Colorway. I like this variant because it's the only one with Gold Metal rim around its circular camera module at the back. For me, that detail gives it understated elegance and sophistication.
The Power Button and Volume Rocker are found on the right side of the handset.
The left side is totally clean, allowing you to appreciate the sleek mid-frame and metallic lining.
HONOR X9c 5G has two loudspeakers, found at the top and rear of the device, delivering stellar audio experience. This is one of its many upgrades from the HONOR X9b that has only one.
At the rear, you will find the Dual nanoSIM card tray that can be ejected using the provided pin, a microphone pinhole, the USB Type C port, and a row of holes for the other loudspeaker.If you’re a delivery rider or a construction professional who spends hours outside, this phone fits seamlessly into your life. It's light enough to carry in your pocket but sturdy enough to survive a fall or a splash of rain.Ultra-Tough Triple Defense (Drop, Water, Extreme Temperature) Protection
Here’s where things get really interesting. On January 6, 2025, at Shooting Gallery Studios in Makati City, HONOR Philippines set a Guinness World Record for the Most People Performing a Mobile Phone Drop Test Simultaneously, with 246 official participants! The phone that made history? The HONOR X9c 5G. With such a robust test, it’s clear that this device is built to withstand whatever life throws its way.The X9c features a triple defense system that offers drop, water, and extreme temperature protection. The phone is drop-resistant up to 2 meters, so if you happen to drop it from a desk or while out on a job, no need to worry. It’s also IP65M-rated for water and dust resistance, so whether you’re caught in a sudden downpour or working in dusty environments, it won’t let you down. Also, aside from being protected against watersprays, this handset can survive being exposed to temperatures ranging from -30 up to 70 degrees Celsius, which one might call extremes.For engineers, delivery riders, or construction professionals, having a phone that can handle falls, rain, extreme cold, or simmering heat is essential to keeping your workday running smoothly.Display: Vivid, Smooth, and Easy on the Eyes
The HONOR X9c 5G boasts a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, and it’s a beauty to look at. The 4000 nits peak brightness ensures that even under the harsh Philippine sun, you can still enjoy a clear, crisp view. Whether you’re scrolling through reports, chatting with colleagues, or watching videos during a lunch break, the screen is always vibrant and easy on the eyes.
The high refresh rate provides smooth scrolling and transitions, making multitasking between apps a breeze. Whether you're checking in on work emails or hopping between maps for your deliveries, everything runs seamlessly.
Cameras: Capturing the Moment, No Matter Where You Are
The HONOR X9c 5G features a 108MP main camera, capable of capturing sharp, detailed images in a variety of settings.
HONOR X9c 5G's camera application interface is familiar and easy to use.Whether you're taking a quick snap of an important document for work, documenting your day, or snapping photos during your weekend hikes, the camera delivers exceptional quality with its f/1.8 aperture and OIS (Optical Image Stabilization).

One of the standout features of the HONOR X9c 5G is its Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) capability for the main camera, a significant improvement coming from HONOR X9a and X9b that vloggers and content creators will surely appreciate. With support for up to 4K at 30fps and 1080p at 30fps or 60fps, the main camera delivers a fairly smoother videos, even when you're recording them on the move. Whether you're walking through a busy street or capturing dynamic scenes, OIS helps minimize shakes and jitters, even if not as fluid or stable as steady as what you can get from the more expensive HONOR 200, 200 Pro, or HONOR Magic 6 Pro.The added stability is a game-changer for vlogging, where consistent motion often challenges smartphones without stabilization. The HONOR X9c 5G handles transitions and pans smoothly, enhancing the overall video experience. Colors and details are well-preserved, thanks to the camera's capability to capture sharp footage under various lighting conditions. While it might not rival flagship devices in terms of dynamic range, its performance in handheld shooting is impressive for a mid-range device.Although the front-facing camera does not benefit from OIS, it is capable of delivering clear and detailed FullHD talking head or TikTok videos that are instantly ready for sharing online, especially when you turn on Beauty Mode that's available even on 1080p.Watch this Youtube video to see sample clips taken using the front-facing camera, main shooter, and ultra-wide angle cam of the HONOR X9c 5G:Internal Hardware: Speed and Efficiency for the Busy Professional

Unless you shoot long 4K videos, I guess you won’t have to worry about running out of storage space for work files, photos, or videos, and the phone’s speed is ideal for anyone who frequently switches between apps or works in demanding environments.Whether you're managing multiple work projects, editing photos, or handling complex documents, the HONOR X9c ensures you won’t experience any slowdown.
I ran AnTutu Benchmark Test on the HONOR X9c 5G and it got a score of 547,990 with 175,111 from its Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor.More important than benchmark scores, though, the actual performance of HONOR X9c 5G when running multiple apps or fairly resource intensive games is pretty impressive with no lags or hiccups. For me, what's truly great about it is that it doesn't become way too hot even when stressed.Gaming Performance for Work-Life Balance
