Samsung claims the Galaxy S22 Ultra helped them set a Guinness World Record. Accordingly, Samsung is currently the record holder for the title “Most people unboxing at the same time” with the Galaxy S22 Ultra.
It may sound strange, but this record is pre-existing and the company that holds the previous title is Xiaomi. In 2019, the company set a record with 703 people opening the box at the same time.
Last week, Samsung India set a new record through the #EpicUnboxing event held on March 5. Samsung’s number is almost triple Xiaomi’s record with 1820 simultaneous unboxing over 17 city.
The #EpicUnboxing event is celebrated with a select number of Galaxy S22 Ultra pre-order customers getting early delivery, to 1820 people. The simultaneous unboxing event took place at 19 locations in 17 cities across India.
