Samsung also jumping into the metaverse showing their temporary store in the virtual world.
Samsung is now looking its activities in the metaverse to a next level by unveiling its new smartphone at the store and the event will be streamed live at its website, Facebook, Tiktok and Twitch channels.
Samsung has more plans for its X837 store in the basket and may be arranging more events for its metaverse community.
I actually loved how Samsung is availing this metaverse technology for boosting their business.
