  1. Get to know your sleeping patterns

People have different sleeping habits so it would be good to get to know yours so you can find a sleeping pattern that works best for you. Luckily, fitness watches like the  Galaxy Watch6 and Watch6 Classic have functions like enhanced sleep monitoring and a detailed Sleep Score, tracking total sleep time, sleep cycle, and awake time for a comprehensive understanding of sleeping habits. This series also has Sleep Consistency to visualize the regularity of sleep and wake periods, alongside a Sleep Animal Symbol that indicates how you sleep. Additionally, the Sleep Coaching feature provides personalized instructions, advice, and reminders on both the wrist and paired smartphone, aiding users in developing healthy sleep habits.

Dr. Aika Buenavista of KonsultaMD provided helpful insights on sleep health and ways to simulate a perfect sleeping environment.

  1. All must be calm to snooze peacefully

When you are too stressed out going through your daily tasks these holidays, getting a good sleep almost seems impossible. According to Ms. Lovely Ana Aguas of Mental Health PH, listening and responding to your emotions can help you manage them. She shared that two brains reside within us: the skull brain, conveying messages through images and stories, and the body brain, expressing emotions and associated physical sensations.

“Sometimes when we are too stressed, our skull brains just keep on firing messages [that] sometimes we do not understand it anymore. One way to connect better to our needs is by listening to our body”, Ms. Lovely shared. When you feel overstretched with the holiday tasks, simple breathing exercises can help you calm down and recalibrate and find the peace you need before hitting the bed.

Ms. Lovely Ana Aguas of Mental Health PH shares some tips to get in touch with one's emotions and ways to be calm in stressful situations.


  1. Give yourself the gift of health 

Getting the best night’s sleep does not only start when you’re about to hit the bed. A vast majority of it comes from what you do the entire day. Holidays are about celebration, and you might spend these days letting loose, some of which can have a detrimental effect on your health. Dr. Dex Macalintal of KonsultaMD shared how vices can have an impact not just on sleep but on the overall wellbeing.

To get better sleep and maintain a healthy heart during these jolly days, Dr. Dex suggests avoiding vices and adapting a healthy lifestyle, “You have to eat healthy, you have to get active, you stay at your healthy weight, quit smoking, stay away from second-hand smoke, control your blood cholesterol, blood pressure.”

Dr. Dex Macalintal of KonsultaMD imparts his knowledge on heart health and provides tips towards having a healthier lifestyle.

  1. Getting yourself ready for a merry sleep

Fun moments during these holidays make you feel like you don’t want to sleep at all. To help prepare yourself for sleep, Dr. Aika Buenavista, also from Konsulta MD suggests dimming the lights two hours before sleep, as well as putting your phones into sleep mode at the same time. You can also do some light physical activities like yoga three hours before bedtime to help relax your muscles, and follow with a warm shower to decrease your body temperature. She also suggested having a proper water intake and avoiding drinking more than four cups of coffee during the day.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic is available in Black or Silver, while the Galaxy Watch6 has Gold and Graphite Colors.

  1. Simulating the perfect sleeping environment

Of course, going to bed constitutes choosing the ideal bed you’ll spend the night on. You must choose a mattress that is not just comfortable, but is also made to unlock the transformative power of a good night sleep.

The Galaxy Watch6 series creates a serene environment by automatically adjusting connected home electronics, activating Sleep Mode on the watch and phone to mute notifications, dim screens, and utilize the watch's invisible LED infrared sensor for health insights without light distractions. The one-click band feature allows easy transformation into a fabric band for peaceful moments like sleep.

Samsung has also partnered with Emma Sleep which offers the Emma Diamond Hybrid Mattress that features a Diamond Degree® technology to get exceptional cooling for deeper sleep. It  also has dynamic body support, and  7-zone springs that truly elevates sleep into a luxurious experience.

Recognizing its commitment to provide next-level care for its customers, Samsung Philippines was recently lauded in the Philippines Best in Customer Service 2023 Survey of the Philippine Daily Inquirer.


Created in cooperation with Statista, the world’s leading data and business intelligence portal, the rankings were identified from the results of an independent survey of more than 11,000 customers in the Philippines who have either made purchases, used services, or gathered information about products or services in the past three years. 


The survey was conducted on retailers and service providers from 64 categories, covering a broad- spectrum of customer experiences in traditional retail, online and service segments. For each category, the most relevant brands were included in the scope of the survey according to reputation, turnover or market share. 

The final assessment and rankings were based on the Likelihood of Recommendation (50% of the final score) and three evaluation criteria (also 50% of the final score): Accessibility, which measures the availability of customer service in a shop or on a helpline; Professional competence, which measures the quality of information received and whether questions were answered correctly and in sufficient detail and Quality of communication, which measures whether the contact (via e-mail, telephone or face to face) was friendly and polite.

Care right at your doorstep

When it comes to customer service, Samsung understands that their customers are busier than ever. That is why Samsung has invested in customer care channels that meet their consumers where they need it – at their home or in their community.

These services include a door-to-door Pick-up Service for residents living in the NCR, wherein a service partner will pick up their device at their preferred schedule and address, repair it at the authorized service center, and have it delivered back to them once repair has been complete. 

Another first in the industry innovation is the Galaxy TechVan, which tours nationwide to offer repair services for Galaxy devices and select home appliances. It has already been to cities like Pangasinan in Luzon, Naga City and Bacolod in Visayas, and in General Santos City and Davao Province in Mindanao.

Samsung also offers multiple channels for customers to get in touch with their representatives at the comfort of their own homes. Aside from the 24/7 Hotline and Live Chat for mobile devices, there’s also the Visual Support service where customers can initiate a video call where they can show the issue with their appliance to the customer service representative. 

Going one step further, there’s even the option for Remote Service, where Samsung support can remotely access phones or TVs to diagnose and fix any issues.

If customers prefer face to face interaction at service centers, Samsung has also looked into ways to reduce wait times with a Pre-booking Service where customers can secure an appointment through Smart Q Service available at their queuing app.  

Pro-Active Care and Eco-Friendly Waste Disposal 

Samsung is also striving to help customers adopt a more eco-friendly lifestyle. These include services that help prolong the life of one’s appliances like Proactive Care, which includes check-up and cleaning of air condition units with the help of Samsung Authorized Service Centers nationwide to help better maintain their AC.

To reduce waste, Eco-Conscious repair is another service which allows users to target repair only for affected parts, like the phone screen or TV panel. This not only helps lower repair costs but also reduces the amount of electronic waste. For items that need to be disposed of, Samsung also offers convenient and responsible options via the Electronic Waste Disposal (EWD) program. Drop boxes for mobile e-waste disposal are deployed at different Samsung Authorized Service Center locations nationwide. Free pick-up of unwanted appliances is also available in the NCR.

Extra care for Samsung Members

Samsung Members enjoy even more customer service perks through the Samsung Members app. In addition to receiving special offers and advantages, the Samsung Members program gives you access to first-rate customer service, insider tips and curated content. The app also has exclusive promos and contests where Members can get prizes, as well as engage with fellow Samsung fans. When you purchase from the Samsung Online Store, you'll also have the opportunity to earn rewards points and track it all in the super app. 

Dedicated Care: Samsung Concierge 

For those who own a Galaxy Z Series or S Series device, the Samsung Concierge also includes a dedicated toll-free hotline with customer partners ready to assist with configuration, diagnostics, and even help with repairs. Members can secure appointments via this hotline and avail of the express lane when visiting selected Samsung Authorized Service Centers. Application for temporary loaner units of mobile devices and selected appliances while their device is being serviced will also be available.
