Six months ago, I wrote a post about the Galaxy S7 edge and the Galaxy Note 7 being more alike than ever, that it’s a good thing, and that Samsung had reasons for unifying both the S and Note series in its large “Galaxy.” I also said in that same column that Samsung has been […]

Chances are, you’ve heard of Samsung’s more budget-friendly Galaxy J series along with its particular phones such as the Galaxy J3, Galaxy J5, and even the Galaxy J7. The Galaxy J7 Prime and Galaxy J5 Prime are presumed to be the best of the Galaxy J experience, but Samsung has started “priming” the J3 with […]

The Gear S3 Frontier, Gear S3 Classic, and new Gear S3 Classic LTE are the new smartwatches on the block (at least for another few months until the Gear S4), but Samsung still maintains its commitment to the Gear S2. We’ve seen small, incremental updates to the Gear S2, released in no small part to […]

We reported exclusively several weeks ago that Samsung would bring online doctor visits to S Health with the Galaxy S8, and today’s S Health update brings the claim to fruition. Samsung has updated S Health with a new “Ask An Expert” feature that the company introduced at its Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ announcement a […]

We’ve seen the cost of the next Galaxy already, enough to know that Italy will have it a little harder than the rest of us with buying the upcoming devices, but some believe these new prices are indicative of an upward trend for Samsung: that is, the upcoming prices are part of a phone trend […]

Orchid Grey, Black Sky, Arctic Silver, gold, violet, and blue. Yes, when it comes to colors, that last one has become something popular since its arrival to the market as Blue Coral with the now-deceased Galaxy Note 7. When the Note 7 was recalled for the second time, Samsung did not ditch the color but […]

We’ve seen pricing for the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ leak for Europe, at €799 and €899, but Italy will see prices slightly higher than these. According to an independent source, Italian buyers will pay €829 and €929 for the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ respectively, which is €30 more than the Europe pricing Evan Blass provided a few days […]

Press renders have done everything to convince us that there are three colors for the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ (Black Sky, Orchid Gray, and Arctic Silver), but Samsung isn’t done with the color teases just yet. A gold color option has now been revealed thanks to the work of renowned tipster Evan Blass (a.k.a […]

We’re just 6 days and 19 hours away from the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ unveiling. How do I know this? Samsung updated its Unpacked 2017 app to prepare for the big moment. The Samsung Unpacked 2017 app has begun the countdown, providing the slim phone outline that we’re familiar with from the Korean giant’s […]

We’ve heard much about the new AKG earphones Samsung would place in the box with the upcoming Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+, and the images have now surfaced, and we provided an exclusive a few months ago highlighting new cases as well as a 2,600mAh backpack for the next-generation flagships from Samsung, but it seems […]

We like to think of “common sense” as something everyone has, but I was told years ago that not everyone has it. That proves true on one level, though, for innovation in tech is a matter of common sense. Consumers that invest in mobile devices year in and year out expect companies to take the […]

Everything in life is a process, but the end to some processes is a cause for celebration. That is the case for Samsung, as its Harman International acquisition is now complete after four months of hard work to see it through. Harman stockholders will receive $112 per share, with a total purchase payment of $8 billion […]

DBrand is known for its skins for high-end smartphones that allow additional customization if only to prevent glass-backed smartphones from their overbearing, fingerprint-prone nature. The company has released skins for current smartphones such as the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, and is now back to announce Galaxy S8 skins and Galaxy S8+ skins. The announcement […]

Facebook’s purchase of Oculus should signal to everyone the social media company’s intent to play a large role in virtual reality. Samsung and Facebook worked together to produce the Korean giant’s first-gen. Gear VR, as Facebook supplied the Oculus VR software while Samsung crafted its own headset. That was in 2014, and Facebook and Samsung […]

The Galaxy S Active series has been something of an abandoned stepchild for Samsung: the company puts its efforts behind making the smartphone, but limits its availability and capabilities. For one, Samsung has made this a mostly-AT&T-exclusive series in the US since its inception, which seems rather out of step with a company that can […]
