Let's talk about my 2nd Day of Samsung Members Connect.
My started at 5:00 AM. Had to wakeup early for breakfast since we had a early departure for Galaxy Unpacked 2025. All Samsung Members Stars were required to be ready 7:00 AM sharp in lobby.
I packed up the essentials which included power bank and a tripod.
Thankfully I was on time for breakfast. It was important because we needed energy for a busy day ahead.
All Samsung Members Stars gathered in the lobby to board the buses for Sap Centre, San Jose. I was in Bus number 3.
It was a long one hour journey. But journey took much longer than usual, because of morning rush hour traffic.
Instead I spent this time taking pictures with fellow Samsung Members Stars and of beautiful scenery along the way!
Here's some of those!
Then finally we arrived for the Samsung Unpacked event! It was deja-vu for me because I was there at the same event last year for Galaxy S24.
We all settled down in the seats for event. I had one of the beast seat to witness the epic launch! Just few rows away from stage.
Before the event, I headed out for a quick drink. During that time, I met Rajiv Makhni. Known for reels on Instagram about tech with 2 Million followers. My Dad and I are big fans of his work since Gadget Guru show on television few years ago. I told how him how much my father and I loved his work! I also clicked a picture with him. Such an amazing and humble person.
Then it was time witness the Unpacked Event. I really enjoyed it! Even though this is my third time, still this feeling never gets old.
Really loved the AI features on Galaxy S25 Series and loved the improvements on Samsung Health.

After the event, we got a chance to try out new devices for small period of time. Exciting!
Couldn't wait to get my hands on new devices.
But we jad to wait little longer, since we had to take a memorable picture with TM Roh! Unfortunately, I couldn't get a selfie with him at the time (spoiler alert I did later on :D).
Then onto S25 Series devices! Look at the colours and design!

At the user experience zone, I also met Austin Evans! Famous Youtuber known for his PC builds. This was his first Unpacked event in 13 years! I was so lucky to have a picture with him.
Unfortunately, we had to go to the next venue since we had loads of things lined up for the day ahead.
We took a bus ride 15 minutes away for our lunch venue with Mediterranean Cusine! I loved the Chicken Shawrma and sparkling lemonade of this place.
β
Then we took another bus ride for our Galaxy Workshop venue. Here we had some important discussions with product team about certain decisions that Samsung team took for their S25 and other Series if devices.
Here we were also introduced to our new teams, a Galaxy Team influencer was assigned as mentor for tomorrow's group tasks as well. We had some brainstorming for tomorrow's agenda and were assigned our venues for tomorrow's activities thourgh a lottery. All venues were famous landmarks of San Francisco.
The best part came now. All of us got a Samsung Galaxy S25 series devices to use for next two days! I got the Galaxy S25!
After this we headed to another venue. But this one was special. It was a party with Samsung representatives and influencers all around the world!
First, we got a chance to get pictures with Mr. TM Roh including selfie! Yehhhh! π
It was so good! The venue had so many famous personalities from all around the world. It felt like a dream to me.
But then something unexpected happened. I saw MKBHD (Marques Brownlee). I took my chance and got a selfie with him! I never expected to meet my favourite youtuber in my whole life! This thing made my trip most memorable one everrrr! π
I met Rajiv Makhni Sir again at evening party. And he remembered me! He asked me about say and how it went. It showed how humble and nice person he is! π
Unfortunately, we were escorted by the team to the buses to go back becuase it was too crowded at the party venue.
We were still empty stomach. So the team arranged Pizzas for us at the Hotel! I want to commend the team's efforts for dealing with this situation so well. π―
After the dinner, I went outside the hotel to take few pictures with Brand New Galaxy S25!
Here are some few shots:

And that's how my Day 2 went for Samsung Members Connect. Probably one of the most memorable day of my life! π₯Ή
I even got mention from Rajiv Makhni Sir's official Instagram channel while writing this post! π
