The Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge hit the ground running with strong pre-order sales, but Samsung isn’t slowing down anytime soon. On Friday, the company released three news ads featuring rap superstar Lil Wayne enjoying some of Samsung’s latest technology.
In a short commercial for the Galaxy S7, we see the rapper pushing the phone’s water-resistant design to its limits. He pours champagne over the device while watching a video. Then he dunks it in a nearby fish tank to rinse the device off while taking a call.
