Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra has the power to change the Android tablet game

The Galaxy S22 Ultra is one of the most important Samsung smartphones in recent years, but in my opinion, it's not the most exciting device unveiled at Unpacked 2022. Granted, the Galaxy S22 Ultra attempts and seemingly achieves to combine the best qualities of the Galaxy S and Galaxy Note lines into a single device, […]

After using the Galaxy S8 for five months, this is my only complaint

During that time, I’ve learned an awful lot about the device—both good and bad—so I thought I’d put together a piece describing my experience.

[Poll Results!] Why I’m happy Samsung ditched physical navigation keys on the Galaxy S8

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past couple of months, I'm sure you're aware that Samsung opted for a set of on-screen navigation keys for the Galaxy S8 — and I'm especially pleased with its decision, because I was never really a fan of the physical Home button arrangement on its former […]

Thoughts on the Galaxy S8’s fingerprint sensor: What’s the fuss all about?

Many Samsung fans were up in arms when it was confirmed that the Galaxy S8's fingerprint sensor is placed at the back, alongside the camera. Some of us here at SamMobile were extremely critical of this, too, but I don't personally agree with all of the flak that Samsung is having to take because of […]

Galaxy S8+ battery life with two SIM cards and Always On Display enabled has me impressed

I wasn't too hopeful of the Galaxy S8+ giving me good battery life when I started using the phone. I knew the 3,500 mAh battery inside the Galaxy S8+ was capable of lasting a day, but for the first time, I decided to use a Samsung flagship with two SIM cards, and that was something […]

The Galaxy S8+ is without a shadow of a doubt the best smartphone I've ever owned.

Switching to the Galaxy S8: My first impressions

I firmly believe that the Galaxy S6 edge+ is one of Samsung's best smartphones to date. It's the last handset I remember being genuinely excited about. For some reason, the Galaxy S7 didn't cut it for me, so I decided to make the jump from Android to iOS and pick up an iPhone 6s, followed […]
