Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is now in Malaysia!
The concourse floor of Suria KLCC yesterday (17th March) was packed with hundreds of gadget enthusiasts and fans as Samsung Malaysia Electronics officially launched its latest and highly anticipated device of the year, the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge – answering exciting rumours about its arrival once and for all.
While the grand debut of the Galaxy S7 edge stole the show and interest of passing shoppers and invited guests, it was the special appearance of Korean superstar, Lee Kwang Soo (이광수) that set the mood for this major affair – setting the crowd off with double the thrill and excitement.
“When I heard that Samsung is launching the Galaxy S7 edge in Malaysia, I knew I had to be a part of this launch. The Galaxy S7 edge is the perfect combination of style, performance and entertainment and being able to pick mine up in a very welcoming country where I also get to visit my fans is quite the experience. The search for my perfect smartphone has never ended better!” exclaimed Lee Kwang Soo at the launch event of the Galaxy S7 edge.
The Galaxy S7 edge introduces the first Dual Pixel camera on a smartphone, delivering brighter and sharper images.
