Galaxy AI might be what finally makes Samsung bury the iPhone
Samsung's flagship Galaxy S series faces some of its toughest battles in major markets across North America and Europe. The lineup really only has one competitor, the iPhone, as even though Chinese OEMs make very capable high-end phones, many of them aren't released in these markets due to various reasons.

Samsung’s Easter gift for 25M+ phones makes iPhone users more jealous
Samsung's making it a habit to reward its customers with software updates around major holidays.

Galaxy S24’s One UI 6.1 messed up the Voice Recorder app UI
For every few great new features and changes in One UI 6.1, there's one that makes me wonder what Samsung was thinking. Don't get me wrong, I love the Galaxy S24+ and One UI 6.1 so far, but some aspects go against my idea of improvement. As I pointed out before, one such issue has […]

Why does Samsung Mobile boss TM Roh keep upsetting hard-core users!
There's been a clear shift in priorities ever since TM Roh took over as the boss of Samsung's mobile division. Roh agreed to as much in our interview with him during the previous Unpacked event.

Samsung went supersonic with the Android 13 rollout, but that’s not the best part
It has gotten pretty redundant by now to point out how amazing a job Samsung is doing of updating Galaxy devices to Android 13 and One UI 5.0. Samsung's been releasing the Android 13 update for Galaxy smartphones and tablets almost every single day over the last couple of months. By the time this year […]

Why Samsung should kill its software CSC in 2023
The “CSC” or “Country Specific Code” is an integral part of Samsung's software, and it has been for years. For those who are unaware, it contains custom settings, localizations, carrier-branding, APN settings, and more for specific regions. For example, a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 that's sold in the United States will have a different […]

OnePlus copying Samsung’s update promise shows who rules Android
We've long held that Samsung is the undisputed king of Android updates. This has been a considerable achievement for a company that didn't have a great track record with updates. It went from being an example of how not to create a software policy to basically out-Androiding Google. This massive achievement was several years in […]

Samsung’s Thanksgiving gift is software updates for everyone!
As we near the end of November and get closer to the final month of December (yes, it's been nearly three years since the pandemic started, in case you might have forgotten!), the reality of just how quickly Samsung has been rolling out the Android 13 and One UI 5.0 update to Galaxy devices is […]

Irony dies as Apple exec calls Samsung ‘annoying’ for copying the iPhone
Samsung and Apple fought an almost decade-long legal battle as the Cupertino-based company alleged that the Korean giant had copied the iPhone. Various patent infringement claims were also made which Samsung responded to in kind with patent infringement lawsuits against Apple of its own.

Samsung’s abandonment of Android Wear has Android Wear OEMs applauding
I wrote some months ago that Android Wear fans shouldn't get their hopes up about a 2016 Samsung Android Wear smartwatch, and I still stand by the statements I made then. What's new, though, is that it appears as if even Android Wear agrees with Samsung. Back 4 months ago, it seemed as though Samsung was rebelling […]

Here’s why I’m picking up the Galaxy Note 7
Last week, Samsung took the wraps off its latest flagship smartphone of 2016, the Galaxy Note 7. I was live at the scene in London where I was quick to share my hands-on experience with the handset after playing around with it a short while. Since then, I've had another opportunity to spend some time […]

Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 810 statement leaves much to be desired
Qualcomm has now decided to answer the claims that have been made about its octa-core, Snapdragon 810 processor. Qualcomm confirmed earlier this year that a major manufacturer wouldn’t be using its Snapdragon 810; many picked Samsung as the secret manufacturer, and Samsung witnessed to it when the Korean manufacturer announced its Galaxy S6 and S6 […]

Samsung’s newest devices have the company’s greatest critics applauding the company for what may be the first time in a long time.
