After browsing through the videos submitted in the Samsung Galaxy S II microsite http://bit.ly/pa8JrF, I particularly like this video even though it may look a little silly. Watch it you’ll get what I mean. Haha.

Well, if I was the guy I’ll take both the cash and the phone but I guess the video has its hidden message to tell. Anyway, if you have a cool idea of showing your live to your Samsung Galaxy S II, feel free to take a short video and submit it to the microsite too.

Have you visited the “I Love Samsung Galaxy S II” Campaign microsite developed by Samsung dedicated to Samsung Galaxy S II owners yet?

One of the cool feature in the microsite http://bit.ly/pa8JrF is in the Play Now page as indicated as number 1 in the above picture. There’s a text box at the bottom left (indicated as number 2) for you to key-in any word you like to get the talents to act the words in the video. Just click the Play button, the video will start playing.

Well, if you get bored after playing for a while, feel free to browse the videos submitted by Samsung Galaxy S II users too.

I’ve been eying on Samsung Galaxy S II since its launch in Malaysia in June 2011. It’s the superior hardware in Samsung Galaxy S II that attracts me compared to my Samsung Galaxy S which I’ve been using since end of last year. Besides, I’ve heard many good feedback from the current owners of Samsung Galaxy S II too.

If you are already a Samsung Galaxy S II user and is proud of the phone, here’s a site http://bit.ly/pa8JrF for you to express how in love you are with Samsung Galaxy S II. It a microsite developed by Samsung dedicated to Samsung Galaxy S II owners to submit short videos showing their love for the phone.

Please feel free to watch all the videos submitted by the users and submit yours as well. Who knows your video could be used for Samsung’s next campaign! :)

I managed to record a video of me playing Need For Speed – Shift (a 3D Racing Game) on Nokia N9 during its media launch in Malaysia early this week on 13th September.

Below is the video I took :-

Nokia N9 is known to be good in multitasking, which simply means you can run several applications simultaneously. As you can clearly see at 3.06, the game is still running when I swipe from the corner of the phone. Besides, I completed the entire game while there are 7 other applications running in the background at the same time.
