CNN Philippines Updates or simply Updates is the flagship news brief of CNN Philippines.

History

It was launched in March 1, 2012 under the channel's predecessors Solar News Channel (as Solar News Update and Solar Headlines) and 9TV (as Headlines) and currently airs every 30 minutes from 9:00 am to 11:30 am on weekday mornings, 2:00 pm to 2:30 pm and 4:00 to 5:00 pm on weekday afternoons, and on weekends every hour from 9 am to 5 pm.

Special cases

When warranted, Updates can be aired beyond its regular news brief format for special coverages; and when a developing story breaks, it will air as CNN Philippines Breaking News. Whenever possible, breaking stories from CNN International may be simulcasted on CNN Philippines, before or after the local updates air.

Weekend expansion

The weekend editions premiered on June 13, 2015. Prior to the expansion, it is only airing when warranted on cases like natural calamities.
