There were rumors for over a year now that Samsung was working on a smart ring but in the absence of any credible leaks, many felt that those rumors wouldn't amount to anything. The company itself certainly kept mum about any such product. It didn't give away anything that may suggest it was developing a […]
There's a fine line between pride and arrogance that often gets blurred. Every company is proud of the products that it makes as it should be, but when that pride exercises itself in a way that it begins to make users' decisions for them, that's when it starts feeling like arrogance. Apple and its walled […]
To say that expectations are high from the Exynos 2400 would be an understatement. This is going to be the comeback for Samsung’s custom silicon after it effectively accepted defeat and went all Snapdragon for the Galaxy S23 series. That decision would not have been made lightly but the criticism that the company faced due […]
It took Samsung's slab-type smartphones roughly 13 years to reach design maturity. And I, for one, am looking forward to foldable phones finishing the same process regular phones already went through. In recent years, I've reached the conclusion that drastic smartphone redesigns are a dead giveaway that a company's (or the industry's) design vision hasn't […]
New iPhones are always a big deal for Apple fans, even though Apple's iPhone launch events have now become snoozefests. There was a lot of anticipation among the company's fans for this year's refresh. The rumors had suggested that they might get the first iPhone with a long-range zoom lens. There was also talk of […]
Xiaomi unveiled its latest foldable phone at the beginning of the week. It's called the MIX Fold 3, and judging by the company's social media feed (at least on X), you might get the impression that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold series is finally getting some real competition. The reality is different. Earlier this week, […]
Tablets have long been presented to us as the ultimate laptop replacement. Almost all major manufacturers have tried their hand at them. Some continue to do so while others have decided that it was no longer worth the effort to make new tablets. It has since become abundantly clear that the idea that was sold […]
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. The main lawsuit made its way through the entire US justice […]
The cat's out of the bag. Samsung may be thinking about ditching Tizen for Wear OS and it may do that for its next Galaxy Watch. It would be a big step since Samsung previously ditched Android Wear, which was what Wear OS used to be called, for Tizen back in 2014. Now, though, it […]
There's no doubt that the Exynos 2100 represents a massive step in the right direction for Samsung's high-end SoCs. But are we expecting too much from the company's chipmaking efforts? We very well might be. Mind you, the Exynos 2100 has been holding its own against the Snapdragon 888 much better than its predecessor fared […]
The Exynos 2100 is going to be quite a big deal, and we're here to explain why.
Samsung and Apple have been locked in a competition to take over the smartphone market for about a decade now, but this rivalry has fueled more than just hardware and software advancements. It also sparked numerous patent-related lawsuits filed by Apple as well as aggressive marketing campaigns led by Samsung. The company's seemingly-successful but shortsighted […]
It has taken years for Samsung to get rid of the copycat label. When the industry shifted toward multi-touch devices, many of its designs were said to be too familiar to the iPhone. Apple and Samsung fought costly legal battles for years, with the fruit company claiming that Samsung's phones infringed on many of its […]
Even if we assume recent rumors about how Samsung is considering adding S Pen support to the Galaxy S21 series aren't just correct but prophetic, do not be so quick to write off the Galaxy Note family. Because Samsung surely won't be. This kind of speculation has been circulating the industry for years by now, and will […]
You may have seen a couple of reports today about Samsung possibly integrating a camera into the S Pen. Some believe that this is another solution from the company for completely notch and hole-free smartphones. These reports are based on a patent recently granted by the USPTO after Samsung filed for it in February 2017. […]
