Absolutely correct! This didn’t fall far, and definitely didn’t de-orbit. I would hold it for a ransom of say, a big screen OLED and top-of-the-line appliances.

If this was a Nokia 3310 Satellite, I’d be less sceptical regarding its relatively undamaged condition.

I don’t think anything carried aloft by balloon can properly be referred to as a ‘satellite’. Beacon, transmitter, relay, repeater - maybe one of these were the terms you were looking for? Oh yeah, sensationalizing! Sorry, I forgot.

Samsung doesn’t make OLEDs and are still pushing their QLED nonsense meant to trick consumers.
I will say that the satellite appears to be holding up much better than Samsung’s other tech products.

I had the same thought. It’s clearly just a satellite mock-up (of about the quality and realism you’d expect in a suburban mall display or as a theatrical prop made by non-technically-minded but competent high schoolers), and using the word satellite unmodified is not just deceptive, it’s totally untrue. It’s annoying that marketing lies like this apparently work.

And why does a sat need legs? Is there a space bar we don’t know about yet?

Cory, please consider correcting the headline? This is obviously not a satellite in any sense of the word…

Samsung heard that Apple was planning to launch a satellite, so they did what they usually do: make a cheap rip-off of it as quickly and cheaply as possible!

The SF Examiner offered $10,000 in 1979 for the first person to bring them a piece of Skylab. Might be worth trying to hit them up for a few bucks.
Maybe Larry Walters got a sponsorship deal?
