Samsung France has begun sending free 128GB microSD cards to
former Galaxy Note 7 owners. It is also running a contest that gives 1,000
lucky winners the chance to attend its new virtual reality theme park in Paris.
Samsung has publicly apologized for the Note 7 fiasco, which
forced the company to eventually cease production of the device and recall all
units for a second time after it failed to solve an issue that caused some
batteries to explode.
The South Korean firm has also tried to appease unhappy Note
7 owners with discounts on other Galaxy smartphones. But Samsung France is
going a step further, sending out 128GB microSD cards that typically sell for
around $100 (when they’re not on sale).
The letter containing the microSD card also comes with details about a
contest Samsung is holding that gives former Note 7 owners the chance to attend
its new virtual reality theme park. All they need to do is send a text message.
“Samsung says all you have to do to enter is respond to the
text they send out tomorrow, and the first 1,000 respondents will win a trip to
the park, all expenses paid,” explains Android Authority. “The experience will
be held on the 20th and 27th of December.”
Samsung is certainly doing its best to help fans forget
about the Note 7 fiasco and retain their loyalty, but as far as we can tell,
this giveaway is currently for customers in France only. It’s unclear whether
Samsung will extend it to other territories.
We would love to see Samsung company in other countries
emulate this kind gesture. What do you think about this Samsung giveaway in
France, tell us your views via comments
