1. [+3,166, -57] Even if this is blatant advertisement, I don't fault Samsung for using such an event for their marketing. It's not like they made the story up.
2. [+2,397, -54] So glad that the Samsung phone was able to save their lives ^^
3. [+2,064, -60] I do find Samsung phones easier when it comes to finding apps and using the keyboard
4. [+92, -9] Samsung deserves praise since this is a true story after all. Lives were saved thanks to their phone. It's unfair to hate on them for using it as advertisement.
5. [+79, -3] I remember when tech communities were making fun of the S7 for having a waterproof feature and asking why that was necessary when it first came out ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
6. [+67, -2] Oh, I remember someone who had the S8 who was saved thanks to its waterproof feature as well because they could request help. I guess the waterproof feature really is useful.
7. [+63, -4] Now this is the kind of stuff that puts our country on the map. Not stuffing foreigners full of Korean food and asking them to give a thumbs up.
8. [+57, -1] Samsung has always maintained its top position in the world of electronics. They truly are the best.
9. [+37, -1] I know a lot of people overlook waterproofing on their phones but it's a really important feature..
10. [+36, -2] The Galaxy really does have better waterproofing and GPS than the iPhone. There's a reason most delivery people use the Galaxy over the IPhone. iPhone boasts about a lot of features but they're mostly not practical in real life situations.
