Samsung Caught Using DSLR Shot Image On Galaxy A8 Star Landing Page!

    At this point, it’s like who hasn’t tried to smuggle a DSLR or Stock shot as a “Shot on Our Phone” advertisement. The big guns like Huawei, Samsung, & Xiaomi have been caught multiple times doing these cheap acts. This time around it’s Samsung with their Galaxy A8 Star that is making headlines for a wrong reason.

    This time, the photo in question is one that you can find on the Hong Kong version of Samsung’s Galaxy A8 Star landing page. An image is used to highlight the portrait capabilities of A8 Star except for the fact that they are not at all shot on an A8 Star.

    The original photographer, Dunja Djudjic, found out about this when she was notified that her photo was sold on Getty via EyeEm and immediately did a reverse photo search. When she found out about this she was more surprised by the fact that the image was extremely photo shopped.

    The only good part of the story is at least Samsung legally purchased the rights to use the image. Perhaps some places with stricter consumer protection laws will start to buckle down on this kind of implied advertising. The fact is that many brands use stock or DSLR images to put acme the capabilities of their camera. To know what happens next in the Tech World, Visit RW Tech Blog.
