Samsung expanding the ATIV brand to include its leading Windows® based PCs

26 April 2013, London, UK: Samsung Electronics today announced it is expanding the ATIV brand to include its leading Windows® based PCs. ATIV, previously the brand for the company’s Smart PC Windows-based hybrid devices, now represents the convergence of PC and mobile technologies and unites all of Samsung’s Windows PCs and devices under one cohesive brand. In tune with the needs and wants of today’s evolving consumers, the Samsung ATIV line offers a variety of market-leading Windows PC devices designed to extend the mobile experience from your handset to laptop and vice versa, making work more seamless and life more convenient.

 

“We’re excited to announce the evolution of our Windows PC portfolio and are confident the ATIV brand will strengthen our position as the fastest growing PC brand[1],” said Simon Stanford, Vice President of IM division, Samsung Electronics UK & Ireland. “At Samsung, we are committed to driving innovation in the mobile business based on our multi-platform strategy. Windows is an important part of this commitment. We hope our ATIV brand will see the same kind of traction and awareness that we have seen with our Galaxy brand, with consumers associating ATIV with Windows in the same way they associate Galaxy with Android.”

Flexibility and Convenience Across Devices

Along with this brand evolution, Samsung is introducing SideSync technology to all Windows-based PCs, the first of many new ATIV features available this year, which means you can easily switch from working on your PC to an Android-based Samsung smartphone. With SideSync, your PC and mobile device essentially become one. You can use your PC keyboard to respond to a text on a mobile phone; view larger maps, photos and multimedia displayed on both devices to make editing files even easier; or use your PC to back up and charge your mobile device so you can get back to the task at hand with less interruptions to work and everyday life.

Cycling Record Attempt Latest

Keep on cyclin’…

After almost 48 hours of ferocious peddling, Hoppo is now just outside Carlisle (that’s over 500 miles!). He’s well on track to at least match the record as it stands.

We’re behind him all the way; you can follow his progress live by clicking here

Best of luck Hoppo!

Cycling Record Attempt in Action

Carphone Warehouse Business is proud to announce our sponsorship of Chris Hopkinson’s amazing record attempt

Cycling from Land’s End to John O’Groats is a challenge. Doing it in a set time frame to break the record is harder. But to then turn around and cycle back to Land’s End from John O’Groats, in under six days, is a superhuman feat. It’s also exactly what Chris Hopkinson has planned for this week.

While the rest of us were emerging bleary eyed from a long, chocolate-filled weekend, Hoppo had jumped on his bike and was furiously peddling his way towards his goal. After starting at Land’s End at 10am on Tuesday 2nd April, we were amazed to discover that only 24 hours later, he had already made it to Liverpool. He’s definitely on track to smash the current record.

CLICK HERE to track Hoppo’s progress LIVE

The record currently stands at 5 days 21 hours and 8 mins to complete the round trip, and we’re supporting Chris all the way. Keep an eye on our Twitter and Facebook for updates on his progress!
