Samsung Experience stores have been open in the US for quite a while. You’ve probably noticed them in your local Best Buy, where they also have an Apple mini store and a mini Google store. Now Samsung has rolled out their Experience stores into the UK, just in time for the Galaxy S5 launch. Samsung has partnered with Carphone Warehouse in the UK to get their Experience stores in 9 of their locations which are:
Newcastle, Northumberland Street
Newcastle, Metro
Liverpool, Paradise Street
Bradford, Darley Street
Bristol, Cribbs
Manchester, Market Street
Bournemouth, Commercial Street
London, Oxford Street
Cardiff, Queen Street
It’s great timing, as you can still walk into one of these Carphone Warehouse stores and check out the Samsung Galaxy S5 and see what it’s all about before ordering one and getting it on Friday. The Samsung Experience stores will have a lot more than just the Galaxy S5 though. It’ll feature just about everything that Samsung Mobile sells. So that includes the Galaxy Tab line of tablets, the Gear wearables, and of course all of the smartphones they have, including their Windows Phone line of smartphones. The Samsung Experience Stores are a great way to see what Samsung has to offer, and if it’s anything like it is in the US, we should see some Samsung reps at those stores as well to answer any questions you may have. Which is definitely a good thing for Samsung, and it gets more users interested in their products. Just in case their marketing doesn’t work for some reason.
You can find the full press release down below if you’re interested in that. How many of you in the UK are looking forward to checking out these new Samsung Experience stores inside Carphone Warehouse?
