Samsung unpacked the future when it showcased the Samsung Galaxy S21 series in its annual Unpacked event.

Despite being in a pandemic, the GadgetMatch team successfully covered Unpacked remotely. Both teams in New York and Manila had their exclusive briefings, following safety protocols in this new normal.

Galaxy S21, Unpacked

With our materials ready, our social media platforms are filled with Galaxy S21 content as soon as the clock hits 11 PM.

This year, I had another chance to do what gives my heart joy: styling and arranging a set design. And clearly, we had fun with it when Samsung Philippines held a briefing for the #GalaxyS21 series. Sometimes, I love my job. #Unpacked https://t.co/wYS5tMKY1H pic.twitter.com/ECeRpZVYbI

And while we’re at it, we played LOONA’s Star music video in 4K to showcase the new 4K UHD+ (1440p) 120Hz Dynamic AMOLED display on the new Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra.#SamsungUnpacked #Unpacked2021 #GadgetMatchLIVE@gadgetmatch #StanLOONA#StreamLOONAStar pic.twitter.com/b6FIgVxckA

Even though we’re out spreading the news about the newest Galaxy, the GadgetMatch team still had their reactions aired on their respective platforms.

Samsung did the best thing they could have done this year – and slash $200 off the price of the Galaxy S21! Check out my first look here: https://t.co/uyuX972FQa

I lowkey hope Samsung’s SmartTags can help me track myself, in case I lose myself this year. #GalaxyUnpacked #Unpacked2021

Samsung Smart Tags+ are exactly what I’ve been waiting for. UWB based trackers for all your things. #GalaxyUnpacked

Wow an entire product video about how Samsung achieved the new Phantom Black color on the S21 Ultra. Using haze glass that “preserves black in its truest form.” #SamsungUnpacked

I’m one of the few people who loves the Galaxy S21’s new camera design.

Phantom Violet + Phantom Red stood out the most because of that daring/garish combo – a proof that you DON’T need gradient phones to lure the eyes of many.#SamsungUnpacked #Unpacked2021 #GadgetMatchLIVE pic.twitter.com/hbqoK6NsAS

From covering the show for several years as a journalist, Michael Josh has come full circle as he hosts a session at CES 2021.

The Gadget Matchmaker himself will join Join Jahmy Hindman, CTO at Deere & Company, to learn how farmers can use smart tech and data-driven insights to feed the world.

The session will happen on Tuesday, January 12 from 1:45PM EST (2:45AM GMT+8).

Deere & Co. deals in manufacturing and distribution of equipment used in agriculture, construction, forestry, and turf car. At CES 2020, we at GadgetMatch recognized their efforts by handing them the Sustainability Award: Use of AI in Agriculture for their John Deere R4038 Sprayer.

It’s been five years since GadgetMatch was established. Founded on the premise of making life better and easier through technology, we’ve come a long way since then. We saw how technology plays a key role in shifting our lives. Even then, we’re still looking forward to what innovations tomorrow will bring.

To commemorate our journey in covering the latest news in technology, we tasked a Filipino artist to create a set of wallpapers entitled Milestones, reflecting our story.

Milestones: Peak

Peak symbolizes being on top of what we do; the pleasure of seeing a beautiful content created after an arduous journey. It emphasizes on the contentment we feel about our quality work and a metaphor for looking over the horizon; we won’t limit our creativity and will never stop innovating, just like technology.

Milestones: Passion

Passion is the inner fire inside us. There’s a burning desire we have from day one, and we never let it die because we stay committed to our vision and mission: Explaining technology in simple terms. While keeping up with technology can be exhausting, our passion burns stronger.

Milestones: Perception

Perception is a wallpaper that relies on the viewer’s perspective. It’s a reflection of people’s perception and our journey that we don’t share. Are we going up or going down? In reality, we’re all just going up, and the stairway symbolizes the little steps we take to achieve our goal. We’re not rushing, but we’re on our way.
