Watch Samsung Unpacked Event Live in 360-Degree Format and in Different Viewing Angles

Over the past few years, Samsung Unpacked event is one of the most anticipated and big tech events in the world of smartphones and tablets. And this year is definitely no exception. On February 21, Samsung electronics is expected to officially unveil the now-much-rumored Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge in Barcelona, Spain. And to make it more grandiose, Samsung will livestream it like what they usually do, but with twist. It will be streamed live in 360-degree video format and will be viewable in multiple angles.

"In addition, during Galaxy Unpacked you will get four options for where to watch—from the auditorium, stage left, stage right or from center stage. Pick whichever spot is right for you, then use the 360 live streaming to get a complete view of the event from every angle."

This Samsung Unpacked livestream event will be available in three different platforms, PC, mobile and of course via Gear VR gadget. I guess this 360-degree video and the Gear VR thing are what the 15-second teaser clip was referring to when Samsung announced the event a few days back.
