PCR Tech and IT retail, distribution and vendor news
Samsung will be showing its complete range of laptops at this month’s PCR Retail Boot Camp.
The vendor has said that it is looking forward to showcasing its 3 Series of entry-level devices; its 5 Series of ultrabooks; its Series 7 devices, which include the Chronos Aluminium, the Windows Slate and the Samsung Gamer; and the second generation 9 Series, which include the world’s slimmest and lightest notebooks.
“Not only will you get the chance to get up close to all of our latest notebook products, we want to help retailers improve the way we currently sell IT products to end-users,” said Samsung’s head of retail for mobile computing, Sean O’Brien.
“Buying a notebook, especially for the first time, can be very complicated. Samsung have some great solutions for in-store and online that will help retailers sell the right product first time.”
PCR Retail Boot Camp, powered by Innergie, is an exciting new conference and expo for the UK PC and IT channel, taking place on Wednesday May 2nd at The Brewery, Chiswell Street, London.
