																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A study by <span><a href="https://www.adoozypower.co.za/in-the-media">Adoozy Power</a></span>* has revealed that young South Africans aged between 18 and 26 years check their mobile phones almost 30 times an hour. It says they spend a quarter of their lives on their phones daily. For anyone to spend that much time on their phone, it is only fair that they, at the very least, enjoy the experience.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Adoozy Power study shows that a mobile phone is one of the most important things for an average young person. If you asked any random youth what items they would save first if their house caught fire, many of them would name their mobile phone high up on that list. Being this devoted to their handheld devices means the youth would understandably want only the best devices to be able to get the best experience.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-16904 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Galaxy-A34-5G_Feature-KV_Display-e1686735197334.png" alt="" width="1000" height="1417" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>One of the finest Samsung Galaxy innovations, the Galaxy A Series, offers much of what young people need in a phone, from awesome features that allow them to unleash their unfiltered creativity to powerful and reliable tech that’s available every day. The newly-launched Galaxy A54 5G and A34 5G are perfect companions for young people who are taking on their future and both devices deliver awesome experiences that give the youth the freedom to express their creativity and pursue their passions.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-16905 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/SM-A346_Galaxy-A34-5G_Awesome-Graphite_Front-and-back-Decal-e1686735038492.jpg" alt="" width="2608" height="2941" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>As part of the impressive Galaxy A series line up, these two smartphones come loaded with great features and additional flagship elements that support, empower and help you to do Awesome things daily. Firstly, the screens of the A54 5G and A34 5G come with an impeccable 120 Hz display that is slick and provides an immersive viewing experience and eye comfort – making activities like gaming even more fun.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Capturing cool vibes at a social gathering makes all the difference and the Galaxy A Series’ impressive cameras take photographs, videos, and selfies to the next level. The A54 boasts a 32MP selfie camera, a 50MP (OIS) main camera plus a 12MP ultra-wide and a 5MP macro camera. The A34 does its magic with a 48MP main camera that is supported by an 8MP ultra-wide and a 5MP macro camera. The front, selfie camera has 13MP. These cameras are amazing for any young person who likes to capture their life’s moments for a good memory bank and to share with their friends and/or followers.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-16906 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/SM-A546_Galaxy-A54-5G_Awesome-Lime_Front-and-back-Decal-e1686735154828.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="959" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>These phones’ great cameras, with enhanced optical image stabilisation (OIS) and video digital image stabilisation (VDIS), offer excellent photographs as well as sharp and stable video, and thanks to Nightography, you will be able to capture clear and vivid detail even at night. No flash, No problem. Even in low light, you can bring your subject to life, so our struggle with having a consistent power supply doesn’t have to dim your desire to capture every last one of your awesome memories with your buddies.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Your next road trip with either of these phones will be even more epic as you’ll be able to capture super-smooth videos in incredible detail. The pro-level of stability of your videos means you’ll get the most amazing shots of all your great adventures and always be ready to upload the best reels on your social media platforms. All the pictures and videos you capture will find a comfortable home in the up to 256 GB internal storage in the A54 5G (128 GB in the A34), which you can ramp up to 1 TB with a microSD card on both devices.</p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span>Worried about your battery dying before you collect enough memories? Worry no more because the large 5000 mAh battery will give you more than two days of power on a single chargec<sup>1</sup>. Should you wake up in the morning to realise that you forgot to charge your phone, take comfort because the 25w fast charging will ensure you’re up and running again as you can get 50% of charge in just 30 minutes<sup>2</sup>. For your peace of mind, both devices have an IP67 water and dust resistance rating<sup>3</sup>, meaning they’re durable and safe in shallow water and dusty conditions.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>A lot of life is happening all at once and in a very short period of time, so when choosing a smartphone, choose a best friend for the next three years.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, 19 March 2018.</strong> At the prestigious Product of The Year Awards held in Johannesburg recently, Samsung was the proud recipient of the Category Award for Premium Smartphone for their extraordinary device, the Galaxy S8+. Product of The Year is an organisation that promotes, recognises and celebrates innovation in consumer science. Entrants are measured against stringent criteria and the aim is ensure consumers only receive the very best products on offer.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Justin Hume, Director of Corporate Marketing at Samsung South Africa says, “It’s gratifying to have our exceptional products recognised in this way. We always ensure that the products we bring to the market are designed with people and innovation in mind and the Galaxy S8+ has proven to be an all-round winner and hugely popular with our customers.”</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Launched in 2017, the Galaxy S8+ has been lauded for its revolutionary design, which features an Infinity Display that has an incredible end-to-end screen that spills over the phone’s sides, forming a completely smooth, continuous surface with no bumps or angles. It is pure, pristine, uninterrupted glass and it takes up the entire front of the phone, flowing seamlessly into the aluminium shell. The result is a beautifully curved, perfectly symmetrical, singular object.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The 12MP rear camera and the 8MP front camera are so accurate and fast that users won&#8217;t miss a moment, day or night. With iris scanning and face recognition, users can ensure that their information is kept secure. Speed is important and the Galaxy S8+ is driven by the world&#8217;s first 10nm processor. It&#8217;s fast and powerful and increases battery efficiency. Plus, there&#8217;s the ability to expand storage, and to work through rain and dust with IP68-rated performance.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Samsung’s virtual assistant, Bixby, completely changes the way users interact with their phones. Bixby is a personal assistant that understands talk, text, and taps so users aren’t confined to one mode of communication.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“Samsung is a leader in innovation and we strive to consistently bring outstanding products to the market. We’re honoured to win the award for the Galaxy S8+ in the Category of Premium Smartphone. The Product of The Year team work extremely hard to ensure all product category winners are really put through the paces. We’re grateful for their hard work and look forward to the next round,” concludes Hume.</p>
