‘In celebration of the launch of Samsung’s new category defining folding mobile devices, Galaxy Z Flip3 and Galaxy Z Fold3, Samsung Ireland has designed and created Ireland’s first and only ‘foldable’ hotel room. Hotel Flip is a one-of-a-kind, luxurious hotel room, designed exclusively to mechanically flip open, taking inspiration from the new foldable and flippable flagship devices.’

Owned by the Murry Pub Group and powered by Samsung, The Camden Bar takes the Irish pub to the next level with its new multipurpose entertainment venue.
It features a massive 303″ Samsung LED video display, which is the largest pub screen in the UK and Ireland.
If the Samsung Wall wasn’t enough, the venue also features sixty-five Samsung 75″ displays and five 65″ Samsung displays dotted throughout the bar.
No matter where you’re situated within the venue, you’ll be sure to catch every goal, try and basket from multiple angles.

Powered by the Three network and Samsung technology, this one of a kind restaurant welcomed family and friends on opposite sides of the globe and gave them the opportunity to come together to share a Christmas dinner like no other.

Mmmf.
“I hope my old business card will go to another fellow Apple enthusiast with a sense of humor and the desire to help raise some money for a good cause. Although the auction is for my business card alone, I have framed it alongside my old uniform [as seen in the picture] and I will arrange to courier it [frame, t-shirt and lanyard included] to you….”

Igniting a full Samsung investigation.
Crikey.
From itPortal.com:
Samsung has launched an investigation into its coveted Galaxy S3 smartphone after images emerged online showing a device that had over-heated and exploded in a user’s car.
Posting on the forum Boards.ie yesterday, a member under the name ‘dillo2k10′ claimed the malfunction happened when the S3 was sitting untouched in his car’s phone holster. While he was driving, he said, “a white flame, sparks and a bang came out of the phone. I pulled in to look at my phone, the phone burned from the inside out. Burned through the plastic and melted my case to my phone.”
