Luxury Atlantis The Royal resort equips Samsung The Wall and Smart Signage display
Today, Samsung officially revealed that it had supplied many Smart Signage display and hotel TVs to Atlantis The Royal, a luxury hotel & resort in Dubai, Middle East, which opened in March.
Located on an artificial island in Dubai, Atlantis The Royal features a unique exterior designed with three hotel buildings and three residence buildings as if they were stacked, and all rooms have a view of the Gulf.
Samsung installed ‘The Wall’, an ultra-high-definition display that integrates micro LED technology, in Atlantis The Royal Mansion, the top-tier room of Atlantis The Royal, to provide guests with the best viewing experience.
The Wall, installed in the Royal Mansion, has an overwhelming size of 146 inches and supports 4K (3,840 × 2,160) resolution. Atlantis the Royale is the first in the Middle East to install The Wall as a screen for hotel rooms.
The Wall is a modular type micro LED display that can be configured in a variety of sizes and shapes, allowing for custom production and providing an overwhelming sense of immersion with a bezel-less slim design.
4K quality hotel TVs are installed in all 795 hotel rooms and residences, including the top-tier rooms. Samsung SMART Signage, installed in accordance with the characteristics of various spaces such as hotel lobbies, spas, and outdoor swimming pools, offers visitors a new level of customer experience.
Smart LED signage measuring up to 6m wide and 8.5m long was installed in three large water tanks that draw the attention of visitors in the hotel lobby. Samsung Electronics installed the hanging type signage between the tank and the wall to provide visual pleasure like fish swimming in the sea.
In spa and sports facilities, smart LED signage that can be installed according to the size and shape of the space was installed. The IER series can be installed flexibly in any desired shape, such as horizontal, vertical, or atypical design, enabling a harmonious presentation in any space.
Samsung’s highly visible Smart Outdoor LED Signage is installed as a menu board in the outdoor swimming pool on the roof of the Sky Bridge, where you can see the unique skyline of Dubai and the Gulf. This product supports IP65 standard dustproof and waterproof and has a brightness of at least 4,000 nits.
Samsung has unveiled a new feature for its SmartThings platform called Home Insight at SDC24. This feature makes smart home management easier and more efficient by using artificial intelligence (AI).
Jaeyeon Jung, the Executive Vice President of SmartThings, explained that Home Insight is designed to understand how people live in their homes. It provides helpful home reports and personalized recommendations based on how you use your devices, your preferences, and even the time of year.
Samsung Home Insight makes it easier for people to manage their smart homes. For example, if you often forget to turn off the lights during the day, Home Insight can remind you to do so.
To make these features easy to access, Samsung introduced the Home Insight Widget, which will be available on the new Galaxy Tab S10. This means users can turn their tablets into a controller for managing various smart devices, all from one app.
It is expected that Samsung will soon expand the SmartThings Home Insight feature through a new update. Currently, you can access this feature in the Galaxy Tab S10 series.
Last month, Samsung launched the Galaxy Tab S10 series. The Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra features a massive 14.6-inch panel, while the Tab S10 Plus sports a 12.4-inch screen. Both models have premium Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays and offer a vibrant yet natural viewing experience.

Galaxy A36 and A56 could be launched around March next year. New features of these phones will be expanded to select older models such as the Galaxy A35 and A55. You can expect much more to come to your phone in the first half of next year.
Recently, Samsung released the Circle to Search feature for Galaxy A35 and A55. The company will debut new Galaxy A phones next year. These devices could be equipped with even more AI-powered features as per hardware specs.
Samsung has not revealed much at the Developer Conference yesterday. The One UI 7 is still under development, with Beta will be releasing later this year. The final version will go official with the Galaxy S25 series next year.
The company is exploring a brand new UX design. The Android 15-based One UI 7 will bring a fresh new look to the entire interface. The company is also integrating AI across its portfolio to enhance customer experiences.
YouTube currently has a feature called Shorts, where users can create videos that are 60 seconds long. Starting October 15, YouTube will let users create Shorts of up to 3 minutes long. This change is a boon for creators as it gives them more time to share their ideas with more content.
Many creators have been asking for this change, and now YouTube is finally making it happen. Google mentioned that it is the top-requested feature by creators. With the 3-minute time limit, creators can include more details in Shorts.
It is worth mentioning that the new length will apply to videos that are square or taller in the aspect ratio to keep the Shorts format easy to view and engaging. Any Shorts uploaded before October 15 will remain the same and won’t be affected by this update.
Aside from this, YouTube is also changing the look of the Shorts player to make it cleaner and easier to use. The buttons will have a simple outline instead of color-filled ones and there will be a single line for descriptions.
Viewers will soon be able to see what others are saying about a video as comments will soon be visible directly in the Shorts player. YouTube will soon provide ” Show fewer Shorts ” options on the Home feed.
There’s more for creators as soon they can easily remix clips from various YouTube videos right in the Shorts camera. They’ll also be able to use templates to match trends and add their personal touch. Overall, Google hopes to make YouTube Shorts more user-friendly, easy to use, and engaging.
