Samsung Galaxy Studio Opens in SoHo

By Michael Valinsky

On November 8th, Samsung opened up a series of nine pop-studios across the country, with a New York  location in SoHo at 130 Prince St. The concept is fantastic and one-of-a-kind. The space is purely promotional, which means (and to quote one of the employees), “they are trying to give as much as they can back to the customers.” The location is divided in multiple different stations.

For starters, you check in at the entrance to receive your Samsung card – a card that you will use at all the stations to accumulate points and maybe win a prize (including a brand New Samsung Galaxy S4, Galaxy Note 10.1, Galaxy Note 3, Galaxy Gear and more.)

Once you check in, here are your options:

- Walk over to the “Experience Stations” where you can get a hands-on experience of the newest Samsung products, the Galaxy Note 3, the  Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition, and the Galaxy Gear.

- Step into the “Entertainment Lounge” where you can check out devices, lounge around on couches, play with the WatchOn app on the tablet – from where you can control the flat screen TV and watch whatever you want – or seat yourself at the gaming station.

- After you lounge, or perhaps before, grab free coffee and cupcakes in the “Café,” a collaboration with Illy and the AirGesture app.

- There are two options for memorabilia. The first is the “Photo Station”, where two pictures are taken of you. One of them is for you and you can hang the other up on the wall and join the space. The second is the “Design Studio” where you can design a holiday greeting card or a mug or T-Shirt or Christmas tree ornament with any image you want! Takes about 5 minutes for the products to be made.

-Finally, if you own the Samsung Gear, you should gear up  at the “Accessories Station”. The station is in collaboration with Piperlime.com with merchandise varying from bags to earrings, bracelets, sunglasses, and necklaces.

Everything in the space is free and made to accommodate customers around the holiday seasons. The space will be closing on December 31st so hurry up, get yourself a mug, and check out these great new devices.
