MANILA, Philippines, December 4, 2015 This season offers everyone—especially Filipinos—with a long list of opportunities to create great memories. After all, the Philippines has one of the longest Christmas celebrations in the world, filled with traditions, rituals and customs.

From the start of the Simbang Gabi (9-day novena of dawn masses) on December 16 to the celebration of the Feast of the Three Kings on January 6, you’ll be filling your gadgets with files you’d like to keep for many holidays to come—photos, videos, music, and more. ’Tis the season to keep your memories safe, and you can count on SanDisk’s new memory solution lineup to help you store your files.
