Samsung India has set two Guinness World Records with its India #WithGalaxy photography campaign, which invited people across the country to capture and share real-life moments using Galaxy S smartphones. The campaign, which ran from 30 December 2025 to 26 January 2026, received 31,331 photo submissions, making it one of the largest smartphone photography contests ever recorded.
The records recognized were for the largest smartphone photography contest in terms of participant numbers, and for the most contributions to an online photo mosaic, where all submissions were combined digitally into a giant artwork showcasing India’s cultural and regional diversity.
Raju Pullan, Senior Vice President of MX Business at Samsung India, said the campaign successfully brought people together through storytelling, while highlighting the creative capabilities of Galaxy S devices. The achievement was officially validated at a ceremony attended by Samsung India executives and a Guinness World Records adjudicator.
The initiative was supported by acclaimed filmmaker Kabir Khan and over 30 regional photographers, who helped participants bring out unique local narratives. Photos were shared under four themes that captured different aspects of Indian life and culture. The “Faces of India” theme featured portraits reflecting the country’s people, while “Sights of India” showcased landscapes, monuments, and scenic beauty from across regions. “Spirit of India” highlighted daily life moments demonstrating resilience, pride, and unity, and “Colours of India” celebrated the vibrancy of festivals, traditions, and cultural expressions.
By enabling citizens from across the nation to participate, Samsung demonstrated the power of technology to connect communities while celebrating India’s rich cultural tapestry. The final photo mosaic now stands as a collective visual tribute to India’s diversity and the creativity of its people, marking a significant milestone in mobile-led storytelling.
