The Galaxy S8 is rumored to ship with a slew of exciting features, like Bixby, an edge-to-edge Infinity Display and on-screen navigation keys. But which one are you looking forward to the most? Cast your vote in the poll below and if you want to elaborate on why, be sure to leave a comment.
Based on the plethora of leaks we've seen over the course of the past few weeks, it's pretty much set in stone that the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus will sport a 3,000mAh and 3,500mAh battery, respectively. This bodes the question: Are you happy with the purported battery size for the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy […]
At this point, we don't need any more confirmation that the Galaxy S8 will be offered in two models, a standard one with a 5.8-inch display and a Plus model with a 6.2-inch display. Despite the significant leap in screen sizes, especially for the base model, handling them shouldn't be as horrific as it would generally […]
A couple of days ago we shared pictures of the Galaxy S8's launcher and app icons which give us an idea of what the user interface is going to look like. The comments we've received on that post suggest that the opinions about it are poles apart. So we've got to ask you, do you […]
Samsung tends to use capacitive buttons on its smartphones not only for convenience but to constantly recreate the rounded-bottom, centralized home button appearance that people usually associate with its devices. However, there's a rumor being bandied about suggesting that the firm may switch things up with the much-anticipated Galaxy S8. Word on the street has […]
We exclusively reported earlier today that Samsung is going to remove the standard 3.5mm headphone jack from the Galaxy S8. It's likely that the space saved by removing the headphone jack could be utilized for a slightly bigger battery and perhaps even stereo speakers. So the question we need you to answer is whether you'd […]
Earlier today, we reported that Samsung is still yet to place an order with its main suppliers for the components required to manufacture the home button for the upcoming Galaxy S8, which has led many to speculate that the South Korean company may opt for an all-glass design for its next-generation Galaxy S smartphone with an edge-to-edge […]
It's increasingly being rumored these days that Samsung is only going to release an edge version of the Galaxy S8 next year. One might say that this is inevitable given that both the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S7 saw the edge version outsell its flat counterpart by a significant margin. There were rumors this year that […]
If you've been following news from the technology industry recently, I'm sure you're aware of Apple's rumored decision to remove the traditional 3.5mm audio jack from its upcoming iPhone 7. Instead, it will release a handful of headphones in partnership with Beats that have been specifically designed to work with its homegrown Lightning connector. The […]
Now that Mobile World Congress 2016 has come and gone, the dust has settled – and, while Samsung's Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge are the most perfect Android handsets we've ever seen, some say that LG out-innovated Samsung this year with its modular G5 smartphone. We extend congratulations to LG for thinking outside of […]
Samsung's move to software navigation keys came with the Galaxy S8, just in time for the shift to Infinity displays with minimal bezels (although what was minimal then is almost giant compared to what's coming). The software keys also enabled the ability for users to change the traditional order of the back and recent apps […]
When Samsung decided to acquire Harman International, the parent company of popular audio companies like Harman Kardon and AKG, back in late 2016, we were excited for the kind of changes the newly onboarded talent would bring to the Korean giant's smartphones. Samsung first brought us the AKG-tuned earphones with the Galaxy S8, before its acquisition […]
The Galaxy S9 has polarized the Samsung faithful. Some rushed to pre-order Galaxy S9 as soon as it was possible while others (Galaxy S8 owners in particular) have been debating the need to spend north of $700 on a device that looks like the one from last year and offers features that may not be […]
Now that the official unveiling of the Galaxy S9 and S9+ is over, it’s time to ponder over purchase related questions. Samsung has made choosing between the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ more difficult this time by equipping the plus variant with more RAM and a dual-camera setup at the back. So, the choice between […]
This year, there's noticeable difference between the smaller and larger versions of Samsung's new flagships as far as the specs and feature list are concerned. The Galaxy S9+ gets dual rear cameras and 6GB of RAM, two important features that the Galaxy S9 misses out on, making it much less of an upgrade over the […]
