Galaxy Hangouts invites South Africans to experience innovation in its most refined form as Samsung reimagines how consumers engage with technology. This pop-up café experience is an elegant blend of sophistication, innovation, and social connection. Guests can enjoy complimentary coffee, quality time with friends, and explore the latest technological marvels: the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7, and the Galaxy Watch 8 Series.
Galaxy Hangouts will take place at numerous activation spots across South Africa, including iconic locations in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, and Durban. Far more than a product demonstration, Galaxy Hangouts is a lifestyle-infused experience where cutting-edge AI seamlessly meets everyday luxury.
Where innovation and relaxation come together
Galaxy Hangouts is more than a product showcase. It fits the way people live today. Located in popular spots and stylish venues, it’s a place to relax and enjoy at your own pace. Whether at a shopping centre or business hub, Samsung brings technology where South Africans live, work, and connect.
“Galaxy Hangouts is a reflection of where we are today as a brand – dynamic, immersive, and deeply connected to how people actually experience technology,” says Kgomotso Mannya, Chief Marketing Officer at Samsung Africa. “With our new Galaxy Z Series and Galaxy Watch8 Series, all powered by Galaxy AI, we’re not just showcasing innovation, we’re placing it directly in the hands of the people, in places they already love.”
Discover new ways to create with AI
In these stylish settings, you can get hands on with Galaxy AI, including the clever Gemini Live assistant. Gemini is designed to make your life easier by helping you manage your schedule, messages, and plans all without having to jump between apps. Whether you are organising a trip, planning your outfit, or handling work tasks, Gemini understands your style and what you need.
Guests can try the Galaxy Z Fold 7’s amazing 200 MP camera, perfect for capturing quiet moments or quick snaps with features like Audio Eraser and Object Eraser to keep photos sharp. Plus, the Galaxy Watch 8 Series blends style, health, and smart features into a sleek, luxury wearable.
