Samsung might have taken a huge hit due to the Note 7 debacle, but who knew they only needed a single Twitter emoji to fix the economic mess!
Just after the release of Galaxy 8 series, Samsung Mobile US posted a tweet to their 5.3 million Twitter followers asking them to send their first picture taken from the Samsung Galaxy S8.

Naturally, the tweet turned into a shit storm of pictures along with trolls trying to demean the post with their usual antics.
A certain Edward was at the forefront, who thought it would be funny to let the world know his first picture from his S8 was a dick pic. He didn’t share the picture though.

And if the Samsung Twitter feed wasn’t in a frenzy before this, this surely made it lit! Unsurprisingly, the readers were so amused that they vowed to switch to Samsung just because of the witty reply!
Hahahahaha ? ? ? I'm buying the S8 just cos of this tweet.

Toché Samsung! It seems like a whole year of ridicule and abuse on the social media has served your sense of humor well!
