How Coronavirus is affecting the Home Theater Business?

The coronavirus pandemic has had a devastating effect on the global film industry. Ticket sales for US domestic box office plummeted 80% to $2.28 billion in 2020, the worst year since 1981. This is a significant blow to an industry that is already struggling with competition from streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu.

With the coronavirus epidemic bringing about a lockdown, everyone was bored at home. This is where televisions, soundbars, and other Home Entertainment Equipment came in handy. The devices allowed people to watch their favorite television programs or listen to music while they were unable to go outside public areas such as parks and shopping malls since quarantine zones had been established.

Although this trend was good for TV manufacturers, it also resulted in a decrease in ticket sales which are televisions' biggest competition. "People don't need to spend money on going outside if they have everything they need at home," Richard Jones, an analyst at ColorViewFinder said.

The global home theater market is expected to grow at a rate of 6.6% from 2020 to 2026, according to a report by MarketsandMarkets. This would mean that the market size will reach $9417 million by 2026. This would be a huge increase from the $5975 million that was generated in 2020.

The market for home entertainment equipment is seeing growth due to several factors. Firstly, the global panic over the COVID-19 virus has led people to stay indoors more. In addition, the increasing demand for smart TVs is also contributing to the growth of this market. Manufacturers are focusing on 4K Ultra HD and OLED displays, high dynamic range (HDR), and quantum dot technology to offer enhanced picture quality. These technologies are also being used in smartphones, tablets, and laptops, which is likely to increase their demand.

The Omnicorn variant has led to a significant boost in sales for soundbars, home theater receivers, speakers, and other Home Entertainment Equipment according to ColorViewFinder. Home Theater Systems are an easy way for people to venture outside into their homes entertainment needs; this has created booming demand among residents seeking high-quality audio equipment--especially those living with families or throughout busy cities that have limited public spaces where gatherings could take place without being seen by passersby (or worse).

As the global film industry slumps and people are increasingly turning to TV as an alternative form of entertainment, demand for home theaters will likely continue its upward trend. Manufacturers have started implementing strategies that can be projected to increase the demand for Home Entertainment Equipment in perpetuity with every purchase through 2030!

Smarter Bathroom: Meet Moderno Home Depot’s MHD-4500 AI Smart Toilet

The modern bathroom is evolving beyond functionality, with smart technology bringing greater convenience, personalized comfort, and new possibilities for everyday living.  Joining this shift is Moderno Home Depot’s MHD-4500 AI Smart Toilet. Introduced as the Philippines’ first app-controlled smart toilet, the unit combines smartphone connectivity, hygiene-focused functions, and wellness-inspired features in a contemporary design.  At the heart of the MHD-4500 is its smartphone connectivity. Through the Moderno Smart Home app, available on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store, users can connect to the unit via Bluetooth and access its smart features directly from their phones. Voice control and a remote control system offer additional ways to operate the toilet, providing greater convenience and flexibility for everyday use.  “As the Philippines’ fastest-growing smart toilet brand, Moderno Home Depot believes that innovation should make everyday living more convenient and comfortable. The MHD-4500 reflects our commitment to bringing smart technology into practical home solutions, giving Filipino homeowners more opportunities to experience the benefits of a connected home,” said Rovie Sanchez, co-owner of Moderno Home Depot.  Beyond connectivity, the MHD-4500 places personal hygiene and comfort at the center of the bathroom experience. It features a self-cleaning nozzle, front and rear wash functions, bidet and hip wash options, adjustable nozzle positioning, and UV sterilization. These functions offer users more options for a personalized cleansing routine while incorporating additional hygiene features into an everyday essential.  Comfort takes center stage through its heated seat, adjustable water temperature, and adjustable drying system. Multiple massage modes, including strong-soft and moving massage functions, provide further customization. Built-in aromatherapy, dynamic lighting, and a soft night light add a wellness-inspired dimension, while automatic lid opening and closing and a slow-closing seat ring bring added convenience to daily routines.  These features are housed in a modern, elongated design crafted from premium ceramic. An LED display and integrated controls complement its contemporary appearance, allowing the unit to combine smart functionality with a clean, modern aesthetic.  Practical considerations are also part of its design. The MHD-4500 uses a siphon-jet flushing system with automatic and manual flushing options, as well as a foot-sensor flush function. A built-in water tank and booster pump support its flushing system, while leakage protection and power-outage flushing provide additional functionality.  For Jean Sanchez, co-owner of Moderno Home Depot, thoughtful home upgrades are about creating spaces that respond to people's everyday needs.  “Creating a comfortable home goes beyond choosing beautiful fixtures. It is also about finding solutions that make everyday routines easier and more personal. With the MHD-4500, we want to encourage homeowners to look at the bathroom in a new way and discover how technology can bring added comfort and convenience to their daily lives,” she said.  The product launch coincided with the opening of Moderno Home Depot’s newest showroom in Biñan City, Laguna, on Oct. 8, expanding the brand’s presence in South Luzon. The showroom offers homeowners, architects, and construction professionals another destination to explore modern bathroom fixtures and home solutions.  With the MHD-4500, Moderno Home Depot brings connected technology into a space where comfort, hygiene, and functionality intersect every day. It offers homeowners a new way to think about bathroom upgrades — not simply as a matter of aesthetics, but as an opportunity to make everyday living more convenient and personalized.
