Samsung doesn't have its own stores in the U.S., but it does have more than 1,000 "Samsung Experience" mini stores within Best Buy locations. Those mini stores offer a similar experience as Apple Stores do and are staffed by Samsung experts who can help you learn how to use your devices.

However, The Information cautions that the new hire doesn't mean Samsung is ready to pull the trigger on a retail stores right away.
