Dear TM Roh, It’s time for some much-needed shock and awe
TM Roh took over the reins of Samsung MX at the start of 2020. To say that it was a very difficult time would be an understatement. The pandemic had gripped a world staring global recession in the face. Global supply chains were disrupted and life as we knew it came to a standstill. He […]

Copying Google’s seven year update policy won’t save Samsung
No one does software updates in the Android landscape as well as Samsung, but the Korean manufacturer's superiority has been challenged by Google, which recently launched the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro. It promised to support all Pixel devices launched in the future with new Android versions and security patches for seven years. Samsung […]

All Galaxy S24 models could have a titanium frame
For the last few years, Apple has been using stainless steel for the iPhone's frame to enable a more premium in-hand feel compared to aluminum. There have been many rumors that Samsung would adopt stainless steel as well, but that never happened, possibly because stainless steel can add quite a few grams to the total […]

Samsung’s ecosystem is a mess because of Samsung itself
Samsung MX, the conglomerate's mobile division, has begun focusing on software more compared to hardware in recent years. The results have been quite obvious. Samsung Galaxy devices have become more stable, the software optimization has improved, thereby enabling the device to extract the most out of its hardware. The Galaxy S23 series is a good […]

As a mobile gamer, I can’t imagine anything better than the Galaxy Z Fold 5
I'm an avid mobile gamer and that was one of the reasons why I switched over to the very first Galaxy Fold when it came out in 2019. I liked the idea of having an almost tablet-sized display in my pocket that would be great for immersive gaming, while also providing me the flexibility of […]

Samsung Galaxy Unpacked in Korea was just perfect, let me tell you why?
Early this year, I wrote a scathing opinion over Samsung’s decision to once again hold the Unpacked event in San Francisco, a city that’s far from Europe and very far from Samsung’s home country of South Korea. I wanted Samsung to switch things up a bit as it has been years since Samsung chose a […]

Android is in trouble because specs are not sexy anymore
The mobile industry has gone through a massive process of elimination over the past two decades. The diversity of manufacturers and operating systems has reduced to the Android and Apple duopoly. Companies that once led the industry, such as Sony, Nokia, LG, BlackBerry, etc, no longer exist in this industry, even though some of them […]

Let’s not be fooled, the Apple Vision Pro is just a fancy accessory
It had long been rumored that Apple was working on an augmented or mixed reality headset. Even when the VR craze hit the mobile industry, Apple sat on the sidelines as Samsung and others released virtual reality headsets. The craze died down after a couple of years and Apple was proven right. VR was a […]
