Samsung Electronics East Africa hosted an exclusive Galaxy Hangout event at the prestigious Monaco Lounge in Nairobi, bringing together members of the Samsung Galaxy Community for a unique blend of technology, creativity, and street culture.
The high-energy private event served as the official launch platform for the new Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 smartphones, offering attendees an immersive experience centred around artificial intelligence and mobile street photography.
Held under the theme “For the Moments That Matter,” the event focused on showcasing how the latest Galaxy A-Series devices empower users to capture authentic everyday experiences through advanced mobile technology.
AI and Photography Take Centre Stage
A major highlight of the event was the AI and Camera Masterclass, where Samsung users received hands-on training on the intelligent features integrated into the new devices.
Photography expert Edwin Waweru and Samsung Electronics Mobile Experience Product Manager Ryan Mule led the interactive sessions, demonstrating how users can leverage AI-powered tools to elevate their content creation.
•Participants learned how to:
•Remove distractions from images using AI editing tools
•Remaster old photos for improved quality
• Optimise camera settings automatically in real-time
•Capture stabilised 4K videos and enhanced night shots using Nightography features
The masterclass also marked the official launch of Samsung Street Photography, a creative movement encouraging Galaxy users to document Nairobi’s vibrant urban culture using the Galaxy A57 and Galaxy A37.
Showcasing Nairobi Through the Lens
Guests were treated to a curated street photography gallery and live demonstrations highlighting the new A-Series cameras’ ability to capture vivid colours, sharp details, and dynamic urban moments.
Specially designed aesthetic zones within Monaco Lounge allowed attendees to test the devices’ advanced camera capabilities in real-world environments, particularly the 4K stabilisation and low-light Nightography performance.
Samsung said the initiative aims to shift attention from technical specifications to real-life storytelling and creative expression.
Networking, Entertainment and Community Engagement
Beyond technology, the Galaxy Hangout also offered networking opportunities for Samsung loyalists, complete with live DJ performances and exclusive Samsung rewards.
The event reinforced Samsung’s growing focus on building a creator-driven community around its Galaxy ecosystem while positioning the Galaxy A37 and A57 as devices tailored for modern storytellers and digital creators.
Through the AI and camera masterclasses, Samsung sought to empower users to transform ordinary street scenes into professional-grade visual content, ensuring they never miss the moments that matter.
