Samsung Galaxy Note 3 announced as official phone of Sochi 2014 winter games

Galaxy Note 3s to be given to all attending athletes 

Just as it did with the London games last summer, Samsung has another major Olympic sponsorship deal in place for next year's Winter Olympics in the Russian city of Sochi. The Galaxy Note 3 has been named as the official phone of the Sochi 2014 games, and Samsung will provide Note 3s to all participating athletes, the first time such a giveaway has been planned.

Samsung will also be providing a "Wireless Olympic Works" (WOW) Android apps as part of its "Samsung Smart Olympic Games" initiative. For Olympic staffers running the games, the app will provide "essential, up-to-date Games time data and connectivity," while the public WOW app will deliver news and other information on the games.

So we can expect to see a lot more of the Galaxy Note 3 in the run up to next February's Winter Olympic, as Samsung seeks to take advantage of the global platform it presents. Today's press release refers to pop-up "Galaxy Studio" stands at the Olympic Park and a "Galaxy Team" of some 80 hopeful athletes from 20 countries. The games run from Feb. 7-23, 2014 in Sochi, Russia.
