Samsung's First PIN Pop-up Stores Hit London Tomorrow
Just in time for the Galaxy S III launch, Samsung's celebrating the launch of several new pop-up stores around London.
Samsung hasn't been a stranger to the UK as of late. As an Olympic sponsor, the company's done everything from official London 2012 Galaxy S IIIs to ticket giveaways to folks purchasing Samsung products. Earlier this month, London was the stage for the unveiling of the Galaxy S III and now, just in time for the phone's launch, the South Korean company is opening up a number of pop-up stores in London.
Dubbed PIN stores, the shops will be cropping up around the city with a couple of locations almost ready for operation. Samsung reports that the first two are located at Westfield shopping centre in Shepherd's Bush and Old Spitalfields Market and will open tomorrow, May 29, which is when the first Galaxy S III owners will be picking up their pre-orders.
No word on the other locations just yet, or even when they'll be opening, but you can feast your eyes on photos of the Westfield location (which enjoys a spot just below the shopping centre's Apple store) below:






I like that Samsung is working to compete and not just getting run over by Apple.
