Samsung's Galaxy A was "built for the era of live" and a time where people are passionate about creatively and spontaneously capturing moments. To introduce the new phone, its high-quality camera, large screen and long-lasting battery, Samsung created a video to express that "Awesome is for everyone."
As the Samsung Galaxy A series specifically targets Millennials and Gen Z consumers, the ad is full of fast-moving colorful visuals, filters, special effects, emojis and random, meme-inspired content. Over the course of the video, which comes in at under a minute, the word "Awesome" is simply used to describe the new features of the smartphone.
Since the future of social media seems to be in live content, Samsung's Galaxy A aims to emphasize that it is designed to keep up with all the action.
