The next best thing: what you can expect to keep (and give up) in the Galaxy Note 7 to Galaxy S7 transition
I wrote a column some time ago on the Galaxy S7 edge and Galaxy Note 7 being more alike than ever, a column that was designed to challenge Note faithful on how they perceive the Galaxy S series in general. Sure, the Galaxy Note 7 has an S Pen that you won't find in the Galaxy […]

Why the Galaxy Note 7 mess excites me more about the Galaxy S8
Samsung had a great start to 2016 with the Galaxy S7. The existing flagship series is without a doubt a hit. It played a major role in turning the company's fortunes around and Samsung wanted to continue the momentum with the Galaxy Note 7. For all intents and purposes, the Galaxy Note 7 seemed like […]

The Galaxy S7 edge and Galaxy Note 7 are more alike than ever: Samsung’s daring move makes perfect sense
The Galaxy Note 7 unveiling last month brought us a device that, as Samsung says, “was inspired by the Galaxy S7 edge” in reference to its dual-edge display. While Samsung referenced the display and its dual curves in making the statement, some consumers believe that more than just the dual-edge display was “borrowed” from the Galaxy […]

I survived my Galaxy Note 7 recall trip to Verizon
I didn't want to do it, but I had to. Verizon and Samsung have sent me emails (and Verizon a text message) over the last few weeks, telling me to power down my Galaxy Note 7 and turn it in for a replacement device. Earlier on in the process, I refrained from taking my Galaxy Note […]

The Galaxy Note 7 recall has nothing to do with removable batteries
If you frequent any Samsung user discussions, there are three items of great importance to some long-time customers: 1) microSD card slot, 2) IR blaster, and 3) removable batteries. Sure, the microSD card slot and IR blaster seem to be the more important priorities for many who value them above all else (fortunately, I do […]

The 6GB RAM Galaxy Note 7 lives; why it isn’t a big deal
I know, I know: the title of this column is bound to already have a few readers burning me in effigy. Sure, any phone with 6GB of LPDDR4 RAM is worth talking about. After all, there are few popular smartphones with 6GB of RAM, and the RAM amount is enough to match a current-day laptop […]

Here’s why I’m picking up the Galaxy Note 7
Last week, Samsung took the wraps off its latest flagship smartphone of 2016, the Galaxy Note 7. I was live at the scene in London where I was quick to share my hands-on experience with the handset after playing around with it a short while. Since then, I've had another opportunity to spend some time […]

It’s all about perspective: critics of the curved Galaxy Note 7 are just flat wrong
It's Galaxy Note season, and with a new arrival soon to emerge, there's the usual discussion about whether or not the Galaxy Note (in this case, the Galaxy Note 7) is worth the financial investment from consumers. Everything in life is about perspective, but in some cases, a given perspective goes too far: it goes from saying that “the […]

Back to the horizon: Samsung’s Over the Horizon theme needs to get better with the Galaxy Note 7
I love Samsung's Over the Horizon brand theme. Actually, I loved Samsung's Over the Horizon brand theme. I don't love it anymore. In fact, I don't even like it anymore. The fully orchestrated classical version of the theme that debuted with the Galaxy S5 (or was it the S4?) was my favorite. For the Galaxy S6 edge, Samsung gave the theme […]

The Galaxy Note 7 is already breaking and setting records – and it hasn’t even been announced yet
Usually, when one discusses breaking and settings records, it's done with the assumption that the item, product, and even person (in the case of sports records, for example) exists. Some would say that the Galaxy Note 7 doesn't exist yet, but this claim would come from a very naïve perspective that doesn't consider that phones can only have […]

Samsung has brought back microSD card storage in the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge, having made the feature cooperate with the company's faster flash memory (UFS 2.0) that made its first appearance in the Galaxy Note 5.

The Galaxy Note 6: next in line for the Six Appeal edge makeover
The Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge have given Samsung the mobile crown the company is due, but Samsung’s winner-take-all year isn’t quite over just yet. You see, above the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge is one phone that rules them all, one phone that has the kind of functionality that diehard Samsung fans crave. That one […]

The Galaxy Note 4 is not the last great Note Samsung ever made
The Galaxy Note 6 is on the way, and the Galaxy Note 5 is the current reigning Note device, but the Note 5 has had its share of critics (whether or not its criticisms are justified will be left up to your own conscience). The Galaxy Note 5 ditched the removable battery and microSD card of […]

Off-screen is the new on-screen: three ways Samsung could expand Off Screen Memo in the Galaxy Note 6
Samsung has never been one to sit back and wait for certain trends to manifest before endorsing them. Take the edge, for instance: it’s a unique design language that wasn’t even spoken of in the tech world before Samsung’s Galaxy S6 edge. All of a sudden, the edge is now “the new flat,” with even […]
