AS one of the pioneering brands that introduced camera phones to the market, Samsung certainly understands the importance of photography, and it cleverly integrates that with its own technology for customers’ interests and needs.
Now Samsung Malaysia intends to take photography even further – by uncovering a multigenre community of talented mobile photographers, through its #MYShootLikeAPro contest.
It began on April 21 and will conclude on May 18, and is open to all Samsung users regardless if the participant is a beginner or an advanced mobile photographer.
The contest is an invitation to users who have a flair for taking impressive pictures, to explore their creativity through the camera features on their Samsung’s phones.
They are urged to push the limits and discover what their Samsung Galaxy smartphones can offer – then to submit their entry.
And because Samsung knows creativity takes many different forms, the company holds a different photography theme weekly for capturing indoor photos.
The grand prize winner will stand to win a Galaxy S20 Ultra worth RM4,999, while the two runners-up will receive a Galaxy S20 each worth RM3,599.
In addition, there are weekly prizes up for grabs over the four weeks, whereby each weekly winner will receive a Galaxy Fit-e.
