Create and be inspired with the SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab S6

Tweet

Today’s creatives are always on-the-go. From meeting with clients to sourcing supplies and going on inspiration trips, these artistic professionals live tech-driven, dynamic lifestyles, and are able to stay productive wherever they go.

Designed with the mobile creative in mind, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 enriches mobile experiences through powerful technology, which is accessible to everyone, anytime, and anywhere. 

Create content anytime

The Galaxy Tab S6 empowers content creators with its suite of top-quality productivity features. It comes with Samsung’s all-new S Pen experience, which allows artists to effortlessly take photos and videos with its Bluetooth connectivity, as well as control multimedia content seamlessly using the Air Actions feature.

Meanwhile, vloggers can take advantage of the tablet’s full-film studio. Now, it’s easier to shoot vlogs using the 13MP Main camera and 5MP Ultra-wide camera for professional-looking content.

The Galaxy Tab S6 is a multi-tasking machine that offers a full PC-like experience with the improved Samsung DeX. This lets creatives do more as it seamlessly connects the tablet to a desktop computer for an optimized viewing experience. They can flash presentations on a bigger screen and oversee several projects at the same time, as well as wirelessly drag and drop files between devices.

Find inspiration anywhere

Capture moments of sudden inspiration with the tablet’s S Pen and Samsung Notes which make it possible to convert handwritten notes to digital text—all of which can be exported to Microsoft Word. Stay creative and write down or sketch ideas while running a separate video on another app by adjusting Samsung Notes’ window transparency to get the best of both worlds.

The Galaxy Tab S6 also serves as a content hub with the pre-installed Netflix and Spotify for an immersive movie night or listening party. Enjoy stunning visuals and audio depth from the tablet’s massive 10.5” super AMOLED display and AKG-tuned quad speakers with Dolby Atmos which deliver uncompromised entertainment at its finest.

Explore new worlds with lag-free gaming

The Galaxy Tab S6 is not only great for productivity but for mobile gaming, too. Its powerful 7nm processor and huge 7,040 mAh battery mean creatives can play after a long day of work and not run out of power or experience lags. Meanwhile, the Game Booster with AI enhances the gaming experience through an optimized FPS, loading time, and more. Additionally, the 8GB memory and 256GB storage allow them to keep all their content in one place.

The Galaxy Tab S6 is available at any Samsung Experience stores nationwide with a suggested retail price of Php 47,990. The tablet comes in Mountain Gray and Rose Blush with a matching S Pen and portable Book cover keyboard.

SM Share Movement goes to Nasugbu, Batangas The SM Store spreads holiday cheer with new school building, toys

Tweet

Smiles as bright as Christmas lights, and laughter that invigorated like Christmas carols—these filled the grounds of the Looc Elementary School in Nasugbu, Batangas as The SM Store gave the students there an early Christmas present that is #SoMagical. Staying true to its commitment of bringing joy to communities where it is present, SM recently turned over its 100th school building donation, and The SM Store distributed toys to children. 

​

Students of Looc Elementary School celebrate after receiving their new toy from the SM Store’s Share a Toy program.

It was only October 16, but it felt like Christmas morning. The students and teachers of Looc Elementary School could not contain their excitement as they took part in a morning of fun and games, a day before the official unveiling of the two-story, four-classroom new school building. 

Christmas came early

Situated in front of the school’s sprawling grounds that offer the students an unobstructed view of nearby mountains is a covered court. On that day, employee volunteers from The SM Store Batangas, The SM Store Lipa and Savemore Nasugbu worked like Santa’s helpers to transform it into a festive spot, complete with balloons and party tables and chairs. 

SM employee volunteers happily welcome the kids to the Share A Toy activity. 

Christmas comes early for the students of LoocElementary School as an employee volunteer from The SM Store hands out gifts to them. 

Students from Kinder to Grade 2 eagerly lined up, thrilled to witness a lively program and party with their friends and their newfound ates and kuyas. They were treated to fun performances from a magician, clowns, a balloon-twisting artist and a bubble artist. They also had their faces painted with flowers, butterflies, and superheroes. At the end of the program, they were given cuddly plush toys from The SM Store’s Toy Department, clothes from its Children’s Wear section and grocery items from Savemore. Christmas came early for these kids. It was a new and unforgettable experience for the children of Looc, whose families are engaged in farming or are working at nearby resorts. 

Mikko, one of the students of Looc Elementary School, shared how he loved the gift and enjoyed the festivities, which was a rare treat in their school.

“Masaya po ako sa natanggap ko na regalo. Masaya at magandadin ang program kanina, nagpafacepaint pa nga po ako. Minsanlang po kasi may ganito dito sa amin. (I am happy with the gift that I received. I really enjoyed the program. I even had my face painted. It’s not often that we get to enjoy celebrations like this),” Mikko said. 

Dr. Luciana Tulagan, Principal of Looc Elementary, said that this event didn’t just bring joy to the kids but also taught them the value of sharing.

Employee volunteers of The SM Store prepare the plush toys for the gift-giving activity. 

The kids cheerfully cuddle their new plush toys. 

“Malaki pong kaligayahan ang naibigay ng SM dito sa mgamag-aaral ng Looc Elementary School. Dahil sa Share A Toy ngThe SM Store, maimumulat namin sa mga bata na dapat hindilang tuwing Pasko ang pagbibigayan, kungdi lagi. (The SM Store brought great happiness to the students of LoocElementary School. Because of Share a Toy, we can educate the children that sharing happens not only during Christmas, but there are everyday opportunities to do it.) 

#SoMagical Christmas

Christmas cheer fills the air as an employee volunteer of The SM Store and the children of Looc Elementary School smile for the camera after the Share a Toy activity. 

Truly, the spirit of Christmas is in sharing. This Holiday season, The SM Store continues to nurture just that through its Share A Toy campaign. 

“SM values creating a positive impact in the communities where we are present. We are really grateful that SM gave us the opportunity to be a part of this meaningful event and the chance to share the spirit of Christmas through the gift of toys with the kids of Looc Elementary School. This is a memorable experience that we’ll treasure,” said Shelamie Marasigan, Assistant Branch Manager of The SM Store Lipa.

The SM Store is encouraging its generous shoppers to give back and make a kid’s Christmas #SoMagical by donating a new or pre-loved toy at the Share A Toy booth in all The SM Store branches nationwide. For every toy donated, the shopper will get a P50 discount voucher. The campaign runs from November 15, 2019 until December 31, 2019, with toys to be donated to beneficiaries of the SM Foundation.

Magicians captivate the students of LoocElementary School with their bubble show and other tricks. 

These toy donations are a simple but meaningful gift for kids. More than just play items, toys are beneficial to a child’s development according to studies. Toys can help increase their learning retention, stimulate their creativity and imagination, enhance their senses, spur their emotional and social development, and help in developing their hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills.

Share A Toy is just one of the ways The SM Store inspires a culture of sharing and purposeful giving among its shoppers. Early this year, it conducted its Share Shoes program and Donate A Book campaign. Since its launch in 2015, The SM Share Movement has already collected more than 1.3 million items which include shoes, school supplies, clothes, toys, disaster kits and hygiene kits, which have been distributed across different parts of the country.
