All Future Samsung Phones, Cameras and TV's Will Come With Dropbox and 50GB of Free Storage

Dropbox on Wednesday announced tighter integration of its cloud storage and file-sharing service with Samsung products, from smartphones to televisions.

Dropbox said the deeper integration includes several new Samsung devices, such as the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Grand smartphone and smart cameras. Samsung cameras will automatically push the photos to Dropbox's cloud storage service.

Dropbox is available natively on the Samsung Galaxy III, Samsung Galaxy Note II, and Samsung Galaxy Camera. Users configuring the devices will be offered free 50GB of capacity when they activate Dropbox, according to Lars Fjeldsoe-Nielsen, head of mobile business development.

Dropbox's new file-sharing capabilities leave a thumbnail of the original photo or video content on secondary device that are also Dropbox enabled. The actual content will not download until a user clicks on the thumbnail.

"That way we don't eat everyone's data plan," Nielsen said. "It gives you the same access to everything, whether it's on your smartphone, laptop or in the cloud."

Additionally, Dropbox file sharing will be available on Samsung's new smart televisions via its AllShare Play application.

With AllShare play, users can bring up photos or video from Dropbox and view them on their Samsung Smart TV.

Nielsen also said Verizon has become a partner of Dropbox, meaning Verizon devices can use Dropbox's file-sharing service.

"Verizon and AT&T had blocked a partnership," he said. "So now AT&T is the only [provider] not using us.

!!ing smart as hell.

im half dumb with this !! cuz ive had an iphone since it came out and always upgraded. im getting the note 2 this weekend. so someone translate this !! for me [pic]

wait nvm. im getting it on att [pic]

I'm jealous of the 50 GB free. I have 12 free from friends downloading, adding pictures etc...

Haven't used DB in a while but this is nice

I got 50 gbs with my G3

I got it too.

Indeed

shiit is nice on GS3, but I'm ready for Sprint to get some W8 Phones

dope except i go that from BOX.com for free, they have the promo !! once in awhile
upp'd almost all my music, pretty dope
can airplay it and everything

The activation process was meh, but 50gb that kicks in right away for pics and videos from cam?

Sheeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiit [pic]

y'all know the 50gb is only for 2 years right? after that, you will have to pay.

oh, I also got the 50gb free on my gs3, got half of it used already. gonna use it til it runs out

i have the GNexus, is it possible to get this??

I've had DB since my ipad 1 days. I didn't get the 50 gb with my GS3 because I'm with AT&T, but I did some !! on the site the other day and it bumped me to 50.9 gb. I didn't ask questions. I'm just rolling with it. Got Google Drive, SkyDrive, Box, and Sugar Sync. In all that's about 70 something gigs of cloud storage and I may use only 5 of it.

Most people with the GS3 are sleeping on the Allshare Play. Stream movies from your home computer/external over any connection anywhere. That coupled with Google Play for music, I only store lecture material or vids I'm sharing with friends in the clouds.

Still gotta register mines
