Samsung installs 'midnight rainbow' in London to promote Galaxy Tab S

Shona Ghosh of Marketing Magazine UK reports on the digital 'rainbow' built using 150 tablets

Samsung installs 'midnight rainbow' in London to promote Galaxy Tab S
A digital rainbow was built using 150 Samsung Galaxy Tab S tablets on London's Southbank, making a bright addition to the view over St Paul's Cathedral and the City.
 
The installation was unveiled on 19 August to show off the Galaxy Tab S tablet launched in June.
 
 
 
The company has tweaked each tablet’s 10.5-inch display to show off a spectrum of colours, giving the effect of an 8-bit rainbow. The idea is to showcase the Galaxy Tab S’ advanced Super AMOLED display – and to give its Twitter followers a chance to win one for themselves through the #midnightrainbow competition.
 
Russell Taylor, the company’s vice-president of corporate marketing, said the rainbow had been chosen as a universally positive symbol. "Creating a midnight rainbow has never been done before," he said. "We're excited to introduce this installation to the iconic Southbank skyline, inspiring people to appreciate and capture colour in new ways."
