The Samsung Galaxy x Sean Wotherspoon collection features three cases for the 6.1-inch Galaxy S21: Dawn (yellow), Orchid (pink), and Rain (mint) and color-matching watchbands for the Galaxy Watch 4. All of which are made from 100% biodegradable materials and feature design elements like leaves, peace signs, planets, and trinkets that Wotherspoon describes as “all the things that make me smile, like my son’s love of dinosaurs or the flowers from my garden....

First up is a new OLED variant of the Odyssey G9. Like its predecessors, this display comes in at 49 inches, but wraps that around a gentler-than-usual 1800R curve. It uses Samsung’s quantum dot and OLED display technologies to provide “brighter whites, deeper blacks, and near infinite color contrast.” Also: CES 2023 tech to watch: Metaverse, ER of the future, food tech, NFTs In more numerical terms, Samsung pegs the contrast ratio at 1,000,000:1....

Last year, the Moto X was among the first Android handsets to receive the update to Android 4.4 KitKat. If the leaked screenshots of the new Moto X running Lollipop are to be believed, it looks like Motorola is all set to repeat its last year’s speedy performance. The images of the new Moto X running Lollipop were obtained by the folks over at Phandroid. The screenshots show that while Motorola has left the Material Design in Android 5....

A new report coming out of Korea citing an official Samsung employee claims to have revealed the complete specs of the Galaxy S7. Now, just like any other leak, it is not possible to verify the credibility of the source, but it matches up perfectly with what we have heard through previous leaks and rumors. The Samsung employee claims that to give the Galaxy S7 a premium look, the company will be launching all variants of the handset with a black chassis....

“You get what you pay for” is one of the oldest adages in the English language. Either in the context of something ultra-cheap, or – here – of something super-expensive, with the new Samsung Galaxy S8+ coming in at £779 inc VAT in the UK and similar top end prices across the world. Yet, after spending a week with the S8+ I am forced to admit that you do get an awful lot for your money....

Rumors had suggested Samsung would be getting rid of the 3.5mm headphone jack from its upcoming flagship smartphone. Now, a new report suggests that Samsung won’t be going that route after all. Android Police says they spoke with a source recently, who they say is reliable, and according to them the Galaxy S8, which is set to be debuted in early 2017, will indeed feature the 3.5mm headphone jack. Nothing is official just yet, of course, and while it’s perfectly possible the source is accurate right now, Samsung could go either way right now....

The Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G (henceforth simply called the Fold 2 to convince our editors we are not just trying to boost word counts) is not for the doubters. It is for the believers. If you do not believe in it, you will not like it. If you are on the fence about foldables, however, it might just help you make up your mind. Though in what sense depends on what you are looking for....

Many brands recognize this ability and prepare to use it. The South Korean giant Samsung is the latest to join this group but in a special way. Using Dex and its smartphones, it will open the doors to Linux. Dex, as the South Korean giant Samsung introduced several times, is an accessory that accompanies the South Korean giant Samsung’s top-of-the-line smartphones and enables them to be connected to a monitor, thus ensuring a workstation or a (almost) computer....

Samsung today released the Galaxy Alpha in India for Rs 39,990. The Alpha is the first phone from Samsung to come with a metal chassis and frame, which gives it a much better in-hand feel than any other device the Korea giant has ever released in the past. The Galaxy Alpha also packs in high-end specs in a body that is no bigger than the iPhone 6. The handset comes with a 4....

HTC’s Q2 numbers just went up just a few minutes ago, and they made less than $50 million. According to Samsung’s Q2 estimates, they think they’re going to hit $8.3 billion, with a “B”. No word as to how many smartphones Samsung actually shipped, though I’m sure we’ll see some guesses towards the end of the month when Samsung posts actual data. — Geoff Blaber (@geoffblaber) July 5, 2013 Now the important question: Is the $8....

This system is now under fire, with revelations made that point to serious security flaws and present at various levels. Tizen is currently the operating system that Samsung uses the most. With the exception of smartphones, where the choice lies in Android, this is present in TVs, smartwatches and other devices. After years of being developed as an open source project, the South Korean company took over and works directly with it....

Yesterday Samsung pulled the wraps from the Galaxy S21 series. As rumored earlier, the Galaxy S21 Ultra supports S Pen. The support is enabled via Wacom technology. This means you can use the stylus button to perform specific actions and access features provided the S Pen is within range. Interestingly you can also use an old S Pen from the Note series. Samsung has launched two S-Pen models. The S-Pen and S Pen Pro prices start at $40....

The Galaxy Note Edge comes with a unique display that tapers to the right edge of the device.

Samsung’s devices, the ones that matter, run Android. We all know that. Google, every year, hosts a developer conference called I/O where you can find out pretty much everything there is to know about the Android operating system. With that in the back of your mind, let’s talk about today’s news: Samsung is going to host their very own developer conference this October in San Francisco. Why? This is the part I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around....

According to the ll Street urnal, co-CEO K. Shin may be replaced by B.K. Yoo, another co-CEO who oversees Samsung’s home appliance television businesses. This would put him in charge of Samsung’s Galaxy smartphone line, which includes the Galaxy S5, Galaxy Note 4, a large portfolio of other devices. Shin led Samsung’s rise to dominance of the Android phone ecosystem. Yet the Galaxy S5 significantly underperformed, selling 40 percent fewer Galaxy S5 models than the Galaxy S4....

It’s happening again with Samsung rumored to launch its own leasing scheme that mirrors the ione Upgrade ogram. According to a Forbes report, the new effort may come in the next several months as Samsung seeks another way to lure more buyers to its Galaxy phones. It’s already tried to do so by loaning out a new Galaxy device to ione owners for 30 days. The Ultimate Test Drive was popular enough that Samsung ran out of loaner devices....

Possibly thousands of photos, contacts and messages will be lost in the blink of an eye. The concerning aspect is that criminals don’t need to steal your physical phone. Malware has been used for years to swipe personal information, but that is only the tip of the iceberg. A batch of spyware apps found in an official app store has vulnerabilities in their code that can expose personal data. Read on to see the list of bad apps so you can delete them ASAP....

There are, however, people who do not have the financial resources to afford such conveniences and solely rely on low-cost smartphones for their internet connection. This reliance itself is not a bad thing. A report published by the World Advertising Research Center estimates by 2025, over 72% of internet users will access the web entirely by smartphones. The problem? Cheap smartphones tend to house dangerous apps and lack updated operating systems, which provide privacy protection, leaving users’ data vulnerable....
