#2013CES Day 1: Blogger Samsung Smart Lounge Review

I can tell you that even though this is my third CES in a row, it still brings out the amazement in me. There is so much to see and do during the Big Show that it can often be overwhelming. No matter how much you plan and strategize, you still end up being stressed out. It’s always good to have some time to compose yourself and get yourself together so you can remain focused and be able to do your best at reporting all that is fab at the event.

For the second year in a row, Samsung has offered the Samsung Smart Lounge for bloggers and other social media users to recharge their technology, work with stable wifi, refuel with refreshments, relax and mix with others with couches and group seating. They also offer a great backdrop for creating videos while in the Samsung Smart Lounge. It’s well lit, and makes a perfect background for video footage and reporting. Last year, I spent a lot of time in the Samsung Smart Lounge blogging and getting my social networking on, and once again, Samsung helped me in a pinch.

I can tell you that the Samsung Smart Lounge was a lifesaver for me yesterday. My phone was just about out of charge and my feet were indeed hurting. Having a place we could go in the middle of the show floor was perfect—and the fact that it was created just for special invited bloggers made it our makeshift home away from home.

Below are a few photos from my visit at the Samsung Smart Lounge during CES 2013. Can you say fun?
