Samsung Galaxy

Background
This is a page for the start-up and shutdown logos used on Samsung smartphones.

Logo (4 June 2010)
Nickname: "Samsung Galaxy S"

Logo: TBA

FX/SFX: TBA

Music/Sounds: TBA

Availability: Only seen when booting up a Samsung Galaxy S.

Editor's Note: This is the only boot-up logo to not use a rendition of "Over The Horizon", which is Samsung's trademark theme, until the logo's audio was removed entirely starting from the Galaxy S7.

Logo (2 May 2011)
Nickname: "Samsung Galaxy S II"

Logo: TBA

FX/SFX: TBA

Music/Sounds: TBA

Availability: Only seen when booting up a Samsung Galaxy S II.

Editor's Note: TBA

Logo (2012-2013)
Nicknames: "Samsung Galaxy S3", "Samsung Galaxy S4"

Logo:
 * Startup: On a black background, a blue light spins around and forms an angled oval. The Samsung wordmark then fades inside the trajectory of the light, after which it then dims out. The wordmark glows in cyan.
 * Shutdown: The blue light immediately draws the oval, the Samsung wordmark fades in, and the whole logo fades.

FX/SFX: The light and the glow.

Music/Sounds:
 * Galaxy S3 and related phones:
 * Startup: A high, echoing pindrop sound, followed by the trademark 5-note Galaxy theme.
 * Shutdown: Just the last three notes of "Over The Horizon" played on piano, together with a whoosh sound.
 * Galaxy S4 and related phones:
 * Startup: A soothing orchestra/piano rendition of "Over The Horizon".
 * Shutdown: A short warbling synth sounder.

Availability: It can be seen when booting up a Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4 and other Galaxy devices released around the time period. The Galaxy S4 variant is rarer, because the bootup logo is replaced with the next bootup logo once the phone has updated to Android Lollipop.

Editor's Note: TBA

Logo:
