Our Samsung Community Team would like to thank our Samsung Ambassadors,    @LongHiker@RedDragon@GaryB82, and @ShadowArtist201, who attended unpack in Paris! They not only got a glimpse of the Fold 6 but were part of the unveiling of our first-ever Galaxy Ring. The ambassadors participated in several workshops and even had the opportunity to use some of our products to share their insights and experiences. We cannot wait to see more from them!
