Change How You Charge – featuring Samsung

October 24, 2017 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Samsung Change How You Charge

 

We use our cell phones throughout the day and can’t afford the battery power to run out when we need it the most. With that in mind I am always trying to find products that charge your phone on the go, charge multiple devices at once, and add juice to your phone without wires.

Having something like this that allows you to quickly charge your devices is exactly what we need for the busy family that we have. It makes us able to change, grab and go without worries.

Samsung has some amazing chargers that will help you connect your devices, your family and more.

Samsung Change How You Charge

The chargers are great because:

  • You don’t have to just use the cable and charger that came in the box with your phone, there are so many new ways to charge your phone
  • Samsung fast chargers allow you to charge your phone much quicker than a traditional charger, even while you’re using the phone
  • Samsung portable batteries allow you the freedom to charge anywhere you are – without being tethered to an outlet
  • Large assortment of charging accessories for every phone

All of these reasons are amazing and really allow you to change how you charge – Samsung fast chargers rapidly charge your devices up to 1.4x faster for select models* The wireless charging system eliminates the cables and charges your compatible Galaxy device by simply placing it on the pad. Save up to 20% on Samsung charging devices at Best Buy through Nov 4th

 Find out more about these Samsung chargers!

 

* Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy S6 edge+ and later models – fast-speed charging; Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge, Qi-enabled devices – standard-speed charging.

Make Virtual Reality Your Reality This Fathers Day With Samsung!

I love technology and lately I have been seeing more talk about virtual reality, especially with mobile technology. Something that I know that is definitely on my fathers day list and many other dads lists too is a great new VR headset from Samsung. Best Buy is currently offering a Samsung Gear VR Bundle. The great thing is that there is an amazing deal right now where if you buy or lease and activate a Samsung Galaxy S7, S7 edge, S6, S6 edge, S6 edge+ or Note5 you’ll receive a FREE Samsung Gear VR + $50 worth of virtual reality content!
Samsung Mobile
The bad thing is that this deal will not last! You only have until 6/18 online or in-store to grab it for yourself. So make virtual reality your reality. I know that I want to myself!
Find out more! about the VR headset or the rest of the Samsung bundle, you will not be disappointed!

Samsung Kids On The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite Tablet Lets Parents Have Peace of Mind

February 13, 2016 by dadofdivas 1 Comment

Samsung Kids exclusively found on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite tablet
 photo disclaimer_zpsaa1cb05b.jpg

Intuitive and interactive tablets have a lot to offer in the way of educating children. With the launch of Samsung Kids – a new service that offers parents and their children a library of top quality educational content – Samsung is sharing tips for kids’ tablet use. After using the tablet for a bit of time I came to a few things that I think would help you if you chose to grab one of these for yourself:

 

  • Don’t forget to set parental controls. If you opt for a tablet for your child, take some precautions to protect them when they’re using the device. Many tablets feature parental controls that enable you to block access to the Internet with a password or limit how much time your child can spend on the tablet and specific apps.

 

  • Plan shared time with your child and their tablet. Children get the most from technologies like tablets when parents are involved with them. Spending time with your child and the tablet, including reading and playing games, is important for teaching safe tablet use. After downloading a new app, consider trying the app with your child, asking questions and explaining the options as he/she plays.

 

  • Limit screen time and take a break every 20 minutes. Time with a tablet shouldn’t become any child’s full-time pursuit or take away from time spent reading storybooks or enjoying physical activity. For the sake of your child’s eyes alone, it’s important to take sufficient breaks away from the screen. To ensure your child doesn’t strain her eyes, try using the 20-20-20 rule. Every 20 minutes, have your child take at least 20 seconds to look at an object 20 feet away.

 

Samsung Kids is currently available for $4.99 per month, exclusively on the for $119.99. However, with a tablet purchase, you’ll receive 3 months free of the Samsung Kids service!

 

Features on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite tablet

  • Watch imagination come to life with Samsung Kids. With engaging educational apps for every age, Samsung Kids inspires a love for learning.
  • Bring your kids the educational content you trust from Dreamworks Animation, Sesame Street, National Geographic and more. Apps that automatically adapt and grow with your kids so they’ll stay engaged at every age.
  • It’s all on the durable Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite, featuring parental controls.
  • Converts to standard Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite when the time is right to graduate from Samsung Kids Mode.
  • 7″ touch screen, Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS, 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, 8 GB Flash Memory, 1 GB RAM Memory
  • Watch imagination come to life with this device, Inspires a love for learning
  • 7-Inch Touch Screen, Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS, 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, 8 GB Flash Memory, 1 GB RAM Memory
  • Explore and interact with content that aligns with STEM and Common Core

Our take on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite tablet

Samsung-suhd

The reviewer has been compensated in the form of a Best Buy Gift Card and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free

I have always been a big fan of technology and there has been some amazing technology that is changing so much, so quickly. This is definitely that case when it comes to televisions. About a two years ago we purchased a television and at that time the biggest difference was Plasma or LCD. Now that games have changed and you have that plus so much more, including 3D, and even more in depth, crisper, cleaner displays that will completely knock your socks off like the Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD.

Samsung-suhd

 

When I went to Best Buy to experience the Samsung 4k Ultra SUHD Television, I was amazed at first the amazing colors and picture that you get when watching this. Asking one of the representatives from the store I came to find out that the Samsung 4K SUHD television is powered with Nano-crystal technology which is new to the market. The display itself has what is called an immersive curve and really gives you the feeling of depth when you watch.  screen portrays a greater sense of depth.

Samsung-suhd

As I watched the display and the clips that cycled on the display, the amount of colors that you saw on this was remarkable. The definition and contrast was better than any other television I have watched in the past. I even found out that the television has something called Sart View 2.0 which allows you to watch your TV from your mobile device – talk about cutting edge!

When I went to the store that were showing an exclusive sneak peek of Jurassic World on the Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD television in the Samsung Entertainment Experience Shop at the Best Buy I visited. I found out that this was only for a limited time only from 5/31-6/13 at some of the stores, so I definitely felt lucky and pleased as I am looking forward to seeing this new movie and the clip on this television just made the movie come alive! If you want to find out more about this limited experience, visit BestBuy.com/JurassicWorld

If you have never experienced the Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD television, you have to! You will be amazed at the difference that you will see and hear.

Also, it is a great time to consider this because between now you can save up to $1500 on Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD TVs at Best Buy stores May 31st – June 13th. So check this Samsung 4K Ultra SUHD TV out for yourself, you will not be disappointed!

The New @SamsungCameraUS NX1 Looks Amazing! #imagelogger

September 16, 2014 by dadofdivas 7 Comments

 

Samsung-Camera-USA-NX1

Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (SEA), announced yesterday their newest camera, the NX1 SMART Camera. This new flagship model combines professional image quality with cinema quality Ultra High Definition (UHD) / 4K resolution video recording and industry-leading SMART connectivity. Samsung also expands its line of professional-grade “S” lenses with the introduction of a new telephoto lens, the NX 50-150mm F2.8 S OIS lens.

 

“The NX1 is the new flagship in our award-winning NX line-up. It brings together our SMART camera technology, new 4K video capabilities and Samsung’s fastest AF system to date in a lightweight, portable body. This blend of cutting edge imaging technology appeals to a wide variety of photographers, and makes it one of the most competitive models in its class,” said Ron Gazzola, Vice President of Marketing, Digital Imaging, Samsung Electronics America. “The combination of the new Samsung 50-150mm F2.8 S lens and NX1 delivers an unrivalled shooting experience that gives users the confidence that they’re taking the best images or video in any situation.”

Samsung-Camera-USA-NX1

Blazing Fast Speed and Superb Image Quality

 

The NX1 boasts an all new, best in class, 28MP BSI CMOS sensor, which supports Samsung’s fastest autofocus system to date, the NX AF System III. Photographers can quickly focus on subjects, making this camera ideal for photographing a football player as they run down the field or baseball action at home plate. Developed utilizing Samsung’s advanced semiconductor technology, the back side illuminated sensor is capable of gathering more light than conventional CMOS sensors. The new NX AF System III features 205 Phase Detect AF points covering 90 percent of the frame, allowing photographers to quickly focus on their targets. This quick focusing ability allows the camera to achieve 15FPS of continuous shooting while continuously tracking focus. The system also employs a patterned AF Assist Beam that reaches up to 15m and will help to more accurately capture clear photos in low light.

 

The NX1 also incorporates a new DRIMe V Image Processer that delivers superior color reproduction and works with the camera’s built-in Adaptive Noise Reduction technology to help retain details and remove noise from photos captured at high ISO’s. The advanced algorithm also analyzes details and color in each photo, making sure users always have the clearest image.

Samsung-Camera-USA-NX1

Wide Phase Detection gives the NX1 the ability to instinctively track subjects almost anywhere in the frame, regardless of their location. Photographers can capture even the briefest of moments. There is no need to re-compose a shot – they can simply focus and shoot immediately, allowing for extreme speed and flexibility. This technology will be of particular interest to those who love to shoot video, as the NX1 supports the use of Phase Detect AF during movie recording, so that results are stable and steady.

 

The new Samsung Auto Shot highlights the innovation available in the NX1. Using the DRIMe V Image Processor and an advanced algorithm, the NX1 will track a baseball as it travels to a player, allowing photographers take crisp images of the moment a ball connects with a bat. While these shots can often be difficult to take, the NX1 removes any concern by accurately predicting the right time to trigger the shutter and capture a fullesolution image.

 

As the only compact system camera on the market with a top deck LCD panel, photographers can easily confirm camera settings, including aperture, shutter speed, ISO, white balance, AF settings, drive and battery life with one glance.

 

Cinema Quality Video

 

Videographers and filmmakers can easily shoot cinema-quality video straight from the NX1. Utilizing the next generation HEVC codec, the NX1 is capable of recording smooth and immersive UHD/4K (DCI Standard) video. Users can easily save files directly to the memory card in the camera, eliminating the need to carry hefty external 4K recorders. This is made possible by a built-in HEVC Codec (H.265).

 

With a myriad of input, output and connectivity options, users will be able to customize their NX1 for their unique recording needs. Additionally, using Samsung’s SMART technology, users can also share their videos directly to any Samsung UHD television via Wi-Fi.

Samsung-Camera-USA-NX1

The NX Lens Line-up Gets Faster

 

Expanding upon Samsung’s premium line of “S” lenses, the new Samsung 50-150mm F2.8 S lens is the second in the series and affords photographers the opportunity to capture telephoto images with crisp clarity and tack sharp focus in a variety of scenarios. Its fast aperture provides excellent low light performance and beautiful bokeh, making it perfect for sports, nature and wedding photography. The lens features an Ultra-Precise Stepping Motor (UPSM), improved from the conventional Stepping Motor (SM), it is three times more precise in its ability to control and focus on subjects. Photographers can capture sharp photos at low shutter speeds using advanced multi-axis Optical Imaging Stabilization (OIS) with four-axis control and a six-axis sensor array. These sensors detect camera motion, and help the lens to make the precision corrections necessary.

The new telephoto lens features a dust and water resistant build making it both durable and reliable. All of the lens controls, focus, zoom and OIS, are located in a single “function zone” on the side of the lens, making it easy to control.

 

Smart Connectivity, Tag & Go

Building on the successes of Samsung’s market leading SMART Camera technology, the NX1’s NFC and Wi-Fi capabilities offer the next-generation of connectivity, making it is easier than ever to take advantage of a host of intuitive sharing features. The ‘Tag & Go’ function lets users tap and share memories instantly and easily, pairing the NX1 with NFC enabled smartphones and tablets. Additionally, the NX1 incorporates Bluetooth 3.0 for an always-connected experience with a mobile device.  After authenticating the connection via Bluetooth, the NX1 is capable of collecting important time, date and location data and automatically imports it into the image’s metadata.  Once authenticated, the connection will automatically switch to a Wi-Fi connection for data transfer.

Samsung-Camera-USA-NX1

The Photo Beam feature allows the transfer of images or videos to a smartphone or tablet by simply touching the two devices together with no other configuration needed. MobileLink lets users select multiple images to send to four distinct smart devices at one time, so everyone can treasure photos without the need to take repetitive shots on each individual device. AutoShare sends every photo you take instantly to your smartphone or tablet and the Remote Viewfinder Pro function enables control of the NX1 from a smartphone, allowing the user to zoom and snap shots remotely yet still have full visibility of the scene, opening up new photographic possibilities. Manual settings can still be accessed, including shutter speed and aperture, so that photographers can retain camera control yet have another option as to how they want to frame their shot.
