What you didn't know about Samsung.

Feb 27, 2020
Samsung has built literally everything from a family car to a butt robot. It's a crazy company, so here are my top 40 things about them. Samsung has a huge office park in Korea all to itself called Samsung digital city and it is arguably the company's most important business group. buildings is where their Galaxy smartphones are designed and even where some of the first curved TVs were conceptualized and this Samsung city has a couple of interesting things: there is a special ice chamber that is covered with soundproofing pads to create absolute silence and This is actually where phones' audio performance is tested.

They even have a sound lab full of instruments, which is where many of those iconic Samsung ringtones and alert sounds are created. Also, there's a philosophy here called smart working, where employees can be safe, but

what

ever. time they want until 6 p.m. As long as they feel productive, I quite like this one and even aside from this headquarters, Samsung is big and it's actually hard to conceptualize how big it is, over 320,000 employees and from some perspective that's as big as Google Plus Apple Plus Nokia. and to manage them all, not one, not two, but three CEOs, Samsung's revenue contributes about 17 percent of South Korea's total GDP, which is the total value of everything produced in the country, which also They have sold to a billion galaxies. phones that don't count tablets that don't count many of their non-smart companies, just Galaxy brand phones, which represent a quarter of the number of people on this planet, something has become so big there, in fact, it is a place to expand.

More Interesting Facts About,

what you didn t know about samsung...

Within the Samsung group there are a host of sub companies ranging from Samsung Life Insurance exactly

what

it says on the tin to Samsung Heavy Industries and Samsung techwin and this is where the true depth of the company starts to become clear. Samsung Heavy Industries is actually one of the largest shipbuilding companies in the world, believe it or not, and techwin was founded as the military or defense division of Samsung, in a very literal sense of the word, it developed the k-9 thunder, an anti-infantry tank that can fire on targets up to 40 kilometers away and this was actually used by the Korean Armed Forces, but it gets better.

Samsung has also developed a smart sentry gun and there is a good chance that this will be the first that combines surveillance and red camera to detect human activity, voice recognition and of course the ability to photograph things there was a Samsung car division Motors, they sold hundreds of thousands and Samsung's construction company built the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world and you probably guessed it. I could go on for a while. It doesn't end there. Helicopter engines. fighter jets and toilet seats, something isn't afraid to try something, speaking of which, if you enjoy this video a sub would be awesome anyway.

Samsung and Apple, you may already

know

, have been locked in a legal battle for seven years. Since Apple first accused Samsung of copying the iPhone's design, things like tap-to-zoom and the home screen layout, Apple's initial plan was to try to completely block the sale of Samsung smartphones after After this failed, they asked for two billion dollars in damages, but they only ended up taking around five hundred and thirty million that they won, but this amount of money for a company like Apple was hardly worth it. In fact, Apple also had a couple of losses during this battle when it came to tablets, they filed a public request.
The lawsuit said Samsung's Galaxy Tab had blatantly copied the iPad's design, but the judge disagreed. It was hugely counterproductive to the point where Apple was told to take out ads in newspapers and online only to claim that Samsung hadn't actually copied the iPad, which is a big Oops, it's a bit strange that these two companies would meet. They are suing each other when in reality they knew each other. Samsung supplies around 90% of the OLED panels used in iPhones, meaning that without Samsung, Apple would be fighting for displays and without Apple, Samsung would. We've lost a big customer to their display department, we don't realize it because many of Samsung's products are not retail products with the company's branding on top, but Samsung is everywhere, even though you probably

know

them primarily for their phones. that's only about 20% of its commercial display panels for other companies and its semiconductor sector processors, storage chips and mobile image sensors are also important.
They are doing so well in these businesses that, in total, Samsung earns just under $400,000 in revenue per minute. It's a company that likes to reinvest much of this back into the company. In 2018, Samsung became the world's largest advertiser. It's a bit of a strange title, but the implications are huge. No company in any industry spent as much as Samsung on advertising and also. Last year they were the largest patent applicants in the entire United States, in fact, right now Samsung has over 300,000 active patents that have been cheap if you've seen the video I made about Apple or the one I made about how I'll know I find it fascinating.
See how such large companies had such humble beginnings. Samsung is no different: initially starting out selling noodles, dried fish and groceries, it was a company that, even before finding its place in electronics, dipped its toes into everything it did. founded in 1938, but they did not manufacture their first electrical product until 1970, that is, more than 30 years later, the name has been the same throughout the entire history of the company, but what many people did not know is that they were producing so many puns. some mean three and some mean stars. This was chosen because the founder saw that his company was as eternal as the stars.
These three stars were present in each of Samsung's historic logos until about 20 years ago, when they were abandoned, but the underlying space theme. has stayed out of its mobile division has changed logos, many of Samsung's other subcompanies still use this one that looks an awful lot like a Milky Way galaxy. Samsung's entire smartphone sub-brand is called galaxy and even in the way these phones have been themed there has been clear space inspiration, in fact this Milky Way logo is cool, it supposedly has the s and the G on each extreme coming out of the galaxy to show that Samsung is always pushing the limits in the 1990s.
Samsung's reputation was much more about quantity than the quality they were breaking. brought out products but they weren't that good, the president at the time decided that one day he wasn't going to have any of that, he ordered over 2,000 employees to gather around a pile of 150,000 Samsung products and just watch while he set them on fire, they They have lost around 50 million dollars worth of products just because of the mania declaration, you could say that's a bit harsh, but the company changed and this may be the reason why it more recently became this giant company that produces tons. of products that have been a total runaway success Samsung has also made a couple of questionable items Samsung's dream doghouse is a $30,000 pad that contains a swimming pool, a treadmill or a controlled snack dispenser and this is the best part about a Galaxy tablet in a press release, something actually said this is for dogs that have social media profiles, what probably makes the most sense is that owners will use it to keep an eye on their dogs, we could see it in a movie called The Matrix Reloaded, if not, it's a sci-fi action. film with this as one of the props used in it, so of course something had to make it happen by working closely with the Matrix team, they brought it to life complete with the infamous Matrix wallpaper and a spring-loaded earpiece.
You may have seen that too. The new Motorola RAZR foldable phone, Welton Samsung, in fact, detailed this exact concept some time ago as a way to make a company that was a little more manageable in size and its current Galaxy Fold, which when unfolded is more of a tablet, but on the subject of folding things. It's almost a secret that Samsung currently sells a flip smartphone, it's called the Samsung Folder, it runs full Android, it has a touch screen, it's a very strange choice for anyone who hasn't had serious withdrawal symptoms for 10 years. It's pretty clear now that Samsung always wanted to have their own software platform just when Android was starting out, they tried to compete with something called badas and even after this failed and Samsung moved on to Android, they continued to insist on creating alternatives to many apps and features that Android already has it. wanted to make a

samsung

phone feel like a

samsung

phone not like any other android device its a bit ironic that something actually had the chance to buy android and they said no in 2004 the android team was looking for funding and so They approached Samsung. but Samsung

didn

't see any potential, apparently they found it almost funny that the Android team had such lofty goals, but there was only a bunch of people paid over time, this was just two weeks before Google finally bought Android, the whole picture it could have been different. just think about it, Bixby, it could be a life assistant right now, you might have heard of routing.
Rooting allows you to get administrator permissions on your phone, allowing you to do things like block ads and install custom software anyway, Samsung doesn't really want you to do that. root your phone because it can present additional security risks so over the years they made it harder and harder so it got to the point with the galaxy s5 where there was literally a bounty or cash reward for the first person who managed to root the phone. It started at 500, but as people continued to contribute this, it went up to eighteen thousand four hundred and seventy dollars and now for some of my favorite Samsung facts, they had great moments on social media in 2013, a man sent a message. them on facebook this was right after the galaxy s3 was announced and he said he was wondering if I could get a free galaxy s3 including a drawing he did of a dinosaur note this was done by a guy who anyway he is 26 years old.
Samsung saw this and somehow decided to not only give him the phone, but also a unique custom s3 with this guy's drawing all over the packaging and device. It's actually hard to tell who was trolling her in this situation, maybe she thought something. The drawing was so bad it would be funny to give him his phone with it. Samsung Medical Center is a fully functioning hospital in Korea that of course is used to treat people, but it is what Samsung uses to test possible future medical technologies and some non-medical desires Samsung also owns the largest Everland in Korea South, you guessed it, you probably

didn

't, it's actually a theme park and I'm not going to lie, it looks pretty cool, plus they had their own professional esports team playing Starcraft and League of Legends and a professional basketball team, the Samsung Samsung of Seoul, who to this day play in the Korean basketball league and finally in this digital city that we talked about before, they have this department dedicated just to test the quality of their smartphones that they will put. phones under as much pressure as possible to see if they can handle the charge and, for example, playing a game for long periods of time while the phone is charging or having a robot repeatedly sit on it after the iPhone fiasco. 6 fold, this was a rather strange way Samsung made sure its note 4 didn't do the same.
