Samsung Electronics’ Brand Value Makes Double-Digit Increase, Taking a Spot in the List of Top Five Best Global Brands 2022

Fri, 25 Nov 2022 09:00:29 +0000

For two consecutive years, Samsung achieved double-digit growth in brand value

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. has been recognised by Interbrand, a global brand consultancy, as one of the top five in the Best Global Brands 2022. Each year, Interbrand announces the world’s top 100 brands, and Samsung’s brand value was evaluated for USD 87.7 billion, which represents 17% growth compared to USD 74.6 billion in 2021, ranking the company in fifth place for three years in a row.

The achievement was based on Samsung’s restored financial performance, which is now near pre-pandemic levels, and higher demand for memory due to an increase in data usage. In 2021, Samsung scored a brand value growth of 20% compared to 2020 and this year, continues the double-digit growth.

Samsung first entered the top 10 list in 2012, placing in ninth position, and has managed to rise in the chart each year, reaching sixth place in 2017 and fifth place in 2020.

“Samsung Electronics was able to record two consecutive years of double-digit growth in brand value, all thanks to the support from our global customers,” said YH Lee, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of Samsung Electronics. “In return, the entire company will work together as a team to provide a better and more satisfying customer experience.”

Various Factors Evaluated by Interbrand to Build the Samsung Brand Value

At the end of 2021, Samsung Electronics merged its SET Division and created the Device eXperience Division to increase synergy among its products and provide a next level of experience to customers. Samsung also integrated SmartThings across its product categories, creating an inclusive ecosystem and a multi-device experience. SmartThings empowers consumers to get the most out of their Samsung devices, as well as third-party compatible products they may already own.

In addition, Samsung’s Future Generation Lab has been created to foster authentic conversations around the activities of the next generation. The insights from the lab have been applied to the products and marketing activities.

As well as innovative products based on consumer experiences, the development of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), 5G, automotive and robotics through consistent investment also played a role in Samsung’s growth.

Samsung Electronics Introduces New Bora Purple Shade to Galaxy S22 Lineup

Thu, 28 Jul 2022 16:34:30 +0000

Samsung Electronics has announced the availability of its newest shade: Bora Purple, in the Galaxy S22 range. Going hand-in-hand with Galaxy’s philosophy, the flagship Galaxy S22 series power creativity and self-expression with dynamic cameras to make every moment epic. The devices are available for pre-order from now until August 10, 2022, and on sale August 11, 2022. Customers who pre-order from now until August 10 will also receive a pair of Galaxy Buds2 in purple, valued at $219, as a gift with purchase.

Every colour has its own unique characteristics and heritage. Among them, purple has been one of the most beloved. It is a compelling colour, blending the calmness of blue and the excitement of red to create a different kind of energy that evokes warmth and optimism. It is welcoming and inclusive, embracing diversity.

In that sense, purple stands for the same things Samsung Galaxy does: embracing individuality, pushing boundaries and relentlessly innovating under the philosophy of openness. Purple has been a hallmark of Galaxy’s signature style with the Orchid Gray Samsung Galaxy S8, the Lilac Purple Galaxy S9, the Violet S22 series and the Lavender Z Flip 3.

“Bora” is the Korean word for purple and the bright and eye-catching Bora Purple Galaxy S22 was designed to evoke joy, spark creativity and embrace individuality. From light and playful to dark and bold, many shades of purple have resonated through the ages in different ways – as they have through Samsung’s palette.

“With its pastel and neutral tones, Bora Purple embodies optimism and a sense of calm. It will unfold your world with the power of choice,” said Sonia Chang, VP of Global Brand Marketing Group, MX Business at Samsung Electronics. “Whether you’re a K-pop star or a lifelong purple lover, the Galaxy S22 Bora Purple was made for you.

Seize the Night with the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

Mon, 28 Feb 2022 16:43:23 +0000

As easy as it may be to snap photos and videos of precious moments spent with your loved ones during the day, doing the same at night can be challenging. Equipped with advanced software and hardware features, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra ensures that your favorite memories are saved in great detail, even after the sun sets.

Introducing Nightography: a revolutionary combination of hardware and software in the S22 Ultra to make night and low light photography a breeze.

Read on to find out how the S22 Ultra helps you capture vibrant photos and videos on a big night out.

Unpacking the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra: 4 ‘Firsts’ that Break the Rules

Wed, 16 Feb 2022 16:27:40 +0000

The launch of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra at Unpacked 2022 marks many new milestones for the beloved Galaxy series. Marrying the productivity prowess of the Note series and the pro-grade camera and performance of the S series, the S22 Ultra sets a new standard for what a smartphone can be: The most powerful Ultra device that Samsung has ever created, to offer the ultimate smartphone experience today.

Read on to find out more about four cutting-edge features of the S22 Ultra that break the rules of mobile innovation.

1. Create to Your Heart’s Content – First built-in S Pen in the S Series

A handy stylus on your smartphone unlocks endless possibilities for creative and productive scenarios beyond doodling and writing.

Traditionally a feature included with the Note, Note users’ favourite S Pen now comes built-in with the S22 Ultra, enabling fresh new ways to level up your creativity and get things done. The much-improved S Pen experience means that you write and draw on the S22 Ultra’s bright and expansive screen, making it the perfect tool to capture eureka moments through words or sketches while enjoying a more realistic pen-to-paper feel.

The S Pen also gives you instant access to signature S Pen tools such as Samsung Notes and Live Message, and the handwriting to text function has been upgraded to support 87 languages, so note-taking is more convenient than ever, especially when you’re on-the-go.

And that’s not all. The S Pen can also act as a nifty remote control to run your presentation from afar or be used to take a snapshot with the phone camera. Use it to annotate PDFs without downloading an additional app, and even zoom in to magnify anything on your screen by up to 300 percent.

2. Super-charged Heart & Brain – First 4nm Processor on a Galaxy

In a smartphone, the smaller its processor, the better the device¹.

As the first Galaxy device to be running on Samsung’s ground-breaking 4nm Processor, the S22 Ultra makes multitasking on your phone even easier. The new processor enables Samsung’s most advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) processing to run smoothly, delivering unrivalled performance for all your streaming, gaming and productivity needs.

As you create new content, the advanced AI features work in the background to improve the clarity and quality of photos and videos by helping subjects stand out better from the background, while simultaneously detecting and concentrating on multiple objects within the same scene for better focus and improved image steadiness.

3. A Battery that Goes On & On – First Galaxy battery that Lasts for More than a Day

With all the powerful features built into the S22 Ultra, rest assured that the device is well-equipped to endure long hours of use. Samsung has combined its power-efficient 4nm Processor with a large 5,000mAh battery² to ensure that S22 Ultra can last for more than a day on a single full charge³. What’s more, the device even supports 45W super-fast charging, which lets you record more than 50 minutes of video – after a 10-minute charge⁴– so you can keep calm and carry on with minimal disruption to your work or play.

4. Pro-grade Camera in Your Pocket – First 12bit HDR available in a Galaxy S Series

Whether you’re a casual user or a seasoned content creator, the S22 Ultra enables users to capture stunning photos and videos all day and all night. With a 2.4um pixel sensor, Samsung’s largest pixel sensor ever⁵, the S22 Ultra can capture more light and data with its camera lenses to draw out the details. With the free Expert RAW⁶ app, you also have access to DLSR-like controls to capture incredible moments.

To make the S22 Ultra even more amazing, its camera can capture more than 68 billion colours with the first-ever 12bit HDR available in a Galaxy S series phone for more vibrant and true-to-life videos. With the 12bit HDR that comes in the latest Galaxy S series, S22 Ultra users can record and view all the incredible details even in the very bright and dark areas of the scene, even if the shot is backlit, similar to what you see with your own eyes.

¹ A smaller processor consumes less energy and lets the phone’s CPU pack in extra processing power.

² Typical value tested under third-party laboratory condition. Typical value is the estimated average value considering the deviation in battery capacity among the battery samples tested under IEC 61960 standard. Rated (minimum) capacity is 4855mAh for Galaxy S22 Ultra. Actual battery life may vary depending on network environment, usage patterns and other factors.

³ Estimated against the usage profile of an average/typical user. Independently assessed by Strategy Analytics between 2021.12.08–12.20 in USA and UK with pre-release versions of SM-S901, SM-S906, SM-S908 under default setting using 5G Sub6 networks (NOT tested under 5G mmWave network). Actual battery life varies by network environment, features and apps used, frequency of calls and messages, number of times charged, and many other factors. The total usage time with fully charged device may vary by usage behaviour.

⁴ Based on Super Fast Charging results from internal Samsung lab tests, conducted with 45W Travel Adapter while it has 0% of power remaining, with all the services, features and screen turned off. Actual charging speed may vary depending on the actual usage, charging conditions and other factors. 45W Travel Adapter sold separately. Use only Samsung-approved chargers and cables.

⁵ Same 2.4um pixel sensor size as in Galaxy S21 Ultra.

⁶ Expert RAW must be downloaded separately from the Galaxy Store, for free, before use.

New Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22+ Deliver Revolutionary Camera Experiences, Day and Night

Thu, 10 Feb 2022 02:01:02 +0000

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today unveiled Galaxy S22 and S22+, two flagship devices that power creativity and self-expression. Galaxy S22 and S22+ introduce dynamic cameras with advanced intelligent image processing to make every moment epic. Built with a bold, sustainably conscious design, Galaxy S22 and S22+ are designed to be both beautiful and environmentally conscious.

“Our smartphone cameras have transformed the way we create, share, and communicate. Through photos and videos, we express ourselves and connect with the people we care about,” said TM Roh, President and Head of Samsung Electronics’ MX (Mobile eXperience) Business. “That’s why we focused on designing our latest S series devices with groundbreaking camera capabilities that work day and night, powered by our best mobile performance yet.”

Own the Night with Samsung’s Most Intelligent Camera Yet

Galaxy S22 and S22+ are designed to deliver next-level camera experiences, so people can connect and share wherever they are. With the Galaxy S22 series’ revolutionary new Nightography features – like the 23% larger sensor than S21 and S21+ and Adaptive Pixel technology – your camera is designed to let in more light, draw out details, and capture colors that make your content pop, even in the dark[1]. Both Galaxy S22 and S22+ are built with a powerful 50MP main camera, 10MP tele-lens, and 12MP ultra-wide lens, so you always get the high quality shots. When you’re capturing videos with friends, the new Auto Framing[2] feature detects and tracks up to 10 people and automatically adjusts the camera’s focus, so your camera captures everyone clearly. Both devices are powered by advanced VDIS technology which minimises vibrations, so you get smooth, sharp footage even when you’re on the move.

Galaxy S22 and S22+ are also equipped with Samsung’s latest AI technology that takes your photos to the next level. It’s easy to take perfect Portrait Mode photos with the new AI Stereo Depth Map, and your subjects will look better than ever with even the smallest details appearing crisp and clear thanks to a sophisticated AI algorithm. The same works for your favorite furry friend: Galaxy S22/S22+’s new Portrait mode helps prevent pet hair from blending into the background, so you always get the best shot of your pet.

Power and Performance that Keep up with Your Life

From work to home, Galaxy S22 and S22+ are designed to power you through even the busiest days with the first-ever 4nm processor on a Galaxy smartphone. It powers our most advanced AI and ML processing to date, delivering unrivaled performance for all your streaming and productivity needs. What’s more, network behavior analysis streamlines your app performance by automatically detecting which app you’re using and directing the most power there – so steaming, surfing the web, and navigating apps have never been smoother.

A lightning-fast processor demands power that can keep pace. Galaxy S22 is built with a robust all-day battery[3] and 25W fast charging[4] that never slows you down, and Galaxy S22+ features a super powerful battery that can last even longer than a day on a single charge. Galaxy S22+ also offers 45W super-fast charging, so you don’t have to wait when your power is running low.

Streaming a movie or your favorite show will look even better on Galaxy S22 and S22+’s beautiful displays. Both devices come equipped with a Dynamic AMOLED[5] 2x adaptive 120Hz display, designed for the best in gaming and watching. Whether you choose Galaxy S22’s premium 6.1-inch display or Galaxy S22+’s 6.6-inch[6], each screen is built with intelligent Vision Booster technology that automatically adjusts the display to the lighting around you and enhances the color contrast, so you can enjoy the best possible view of your content. Plus, hardware performance enhancements have improved display brightness – S22 has a peak brightness of 1,300nit while S22+ features a peak 1,750nit[7].

S22 and S22+ will also ensure you can always stay connected and collaborative. Through our partnership with Google, you can enjoy Google Duo[8] live sharing[9] to view photos in Gallery with friends or write meeting notes with colleagues on Samsung Notes – even while you’re apart.

Design to Perfection and Built to Last

Both Galaxy S22 and S22+ feature the S series’ iconic, fan-favorite Contour-Cut design that blends the camera seamlessly into the housing. To create a sleeker and more refined look, Samsung built both devices with a distinctive flat display, complete with a luxurious glass and haze finish. Now, the S series camera housing is designed to match the color of the device’s body with a slim and symmetric metal frame for a seamless look. The result is a balanced, unified design that’s modern, fashionable, and sleek. Both the Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22+ are available in Phantom Black, Phantom White, Green, and Pink Gold[10].

And that stunning design is built to last: the Galaxy S22 Series presents Samsung’s most durable mobile devices yet. Galaxy S22 and S22+ are the first S series models made with Armor Aluminum – our strongest aluminum frame, so you can take your phone anywhere with peace of mind. The Galaxy S22 series is also the first smartphones to feature new Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus®+. The S22 series devices are equipped with this tough glass on the front and back, so you can worry less about accidental drops.

But we know true durability is not just about hardware. As part of our commitment to giving users the best possible mobile performance and experience, the entire Galaxy S22 series will be supported by up to four generations of Android OS upgrades[11]. Now millions of Galaxy users can take advantage of the latest security, productivity and other exciting new features, for longer. Samsung will scale this effort across our product line-up to ensure you’re fully supported across your Galaxy ecosystem.

The Galaxy S series also makes it easy to make your phone your own. You can use Samsung’s clean and intuitive new One UI user interface to customise the look and feel of your home screen and widget. Tailor your icon colors, widgets, color palette, and more to your personal preferences, and create a mobile experience that reflects who you are. One UI also gives you easy access to a wealth of emojis, GIFs, and stickers directly on your keyboard, so you can instantly communicate exactly how you feel without typing a single word[12].

Help Build a Sustainable Future through Galaxy for the Planet

As our most eco-conscious device ever, the Galaxy S22 series pioneers mobile technology while supporting our planet. Plastic pollution poses serious threats to our environment, and discarded fishing nets are especially harmful to marine life and our oceans. By collaborating with leading organisations, Samsung helps recover discarded fishing nets[13] and transforms them into a high-performance material for our smartphones. This material – used in the Galaxy S22 series’ component, key bracket – contains 20% recycled ocean-bound plastic[14] from discarded fishing nets. The Galaxy S22 series also incorporates post-consumer recycled material in its speaker module, as well as the inner parts of the power and volume keys.

In addition to ocean-bound plastics, we use 100% recycled paper for the Galaxy S22’s packaging and include a protective film made from recycled plastic. Every smartphone case is also designed with UL-certified, eco-conscious materials[15] – such as recycled post-consumer plastics or bio-based substances. These purposeful innovations are the latest example of Samsung’s commitment to doing more with less as part of Galaxy for the Planet.

Security You Can Trust

The Galaxy S22 series is secured by Samsung’s powerful Knox Vault security platform, which includes a secure processor and memory that completely isolates sensitive data like your passwords, biometrics, or Blockchain keys from the phone’s main operating system. One UI’s privacy dashboard and Indicator make it easy to see which apps are accessing your data and camera, so you can decide whether to grant or deny permission to each app. The Galaxy S22 series also introduces several new security features, including ARM micro architecture, which helps prevent cyberattacks that target your operating system and memory.

Plus, the Galaxy S22 series brings you Samsung Wallet[16] – a seamless, convenient and secure experience to make everyday life easier. Samsung Wallet combines digital payment, ID, keys and asset management into one tool to simplify your routines, from showing your student ID to compiling travel documents before a flight.

Stay Connected with the Galaxy Ecosystem

Alongside the new S22 series, Samsung is introducing an all new line of tablets and a pack of updated features for Galaxy Watch4 so that Galaxy users can stay connected in every aspect of their lives. Built for a new era of connectivity, Galaxy Tab S8 series– including Tab S8, Tab S8+ and Tab S8 Ultra – is Samsung’s most versatile line of tablets ever, built and designed to meet the ever-changing needs of those who work, study, play and create.
