Background: Samsung announced one of the biggest and coolest challenges that dared celebrities to embark on a journey that will make them #GoMonster on one charge. With its #GoMonster on One Charge challenge, Amit Sadh took on a #MonsterTrail from Leh to Pangong to Hanle, on dusty roads, through remote locations to fulfil a monstrous promise. Sadh’s partner in the journey was Samsung Galaxy M30s that stood by him through the treacherous terrains where he clicked so many pictures, used his GPS and played games in his breaks. Popular Bollywood actor and adventure junkie Amit Sadh was challenged to go on a treacherous route in just one battery life of the Samsung Galaxy M30s. Amit then passed on the challenge to ace mountaineer Arjun Vajpai, who scaled the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest, when he was barely 17-years-old. He was challenged to catch the first sunrise at Arunachal’s Dong valley and the last sunset in Kutch, Gujarat in one day and he had to #GoMonster on this journey with just one battery life on the new Samsung Galaxy M30s.Not only did the device enable him to capture the first sunrise of India beautifully, but the smartphone also lived throughout his 3500kms+ journey without him having to charge it even once. And yes, it did capture the last sunset of India as well. Objective: The new Galaxy M30s features a whopping 6000 mAh battery that has been designed to fit into the ‘always on’ lifestyle of Indian millennials.
