Ensay by Mohamed Ramadan & Saad Lamjarred

Qual é o seu próximo novo? from Claro Brasil
Top 7 is a 30-second commercial video from Claro Brasil. Qual é o seu próximo novo? Claro is one of the top mobile carriers in Latin America. This ad promotes its upcoming 4.5G internet service. Yes, you read that right, 4.5G. Before 5G hits the market, carriers around the globe are competing. However, several carriers in the United States are twisting the idea of 5G, and tried to use 5G as a marketing tool to mask the 4G product. AT&T’s “5G E,” Verizon’s “5G Home.”
Even though most people know 4G is still 4G, but this trick is being imitated by many foreign carriers. Right now carrier Claro has a “4.5G” internet logo, it looks faker than the 5G one. Claro said that the latest 4.5G is 10x of the current speed of 4G internet, however, it is not the real 5G. The 4.5G saying isn’t really confirmed by the 3GPP organization.
Top 8

Top 8 is Sam Smith’s latest single “How Do You Sleep” music video. The song is very catchy as always, however, Sam isn’t your old Sam anymore. He ditched the romantic persona, instead, he adopted some dance moves in the latest single. You almost can’t see his old self in this new single.

Sunte Ja | Slow Breakfast from Spotify Indian
No. 10 is a 35-second commercial video from Spotify Indian. Even though Spotify is currently one of the biggest music streaming app in the world.
