It's been a year since Samsung first introduced One UI 6, and since its debut, many things have continued to change and improve.

Earlier this week, a massive leak revealed official One UI 7.0 marketing material and all of the changes and features it will bring to Galaxy devices, which was our first hint that the beta program could be opened soon.

We make an educated guess based on Samsung's previous One UI beta programs.
Samsung was expected to release the Android 15-based One UI 7.0 beta update in late July 2024, but it was delayed. It still hasn't been released, and the word is that the update won't be released for quite some time. However, this delay could be a boon for all Samsung users, as One UI 7.0 […]

Google kickstarted the Android 15 conversation on February 17 2024 by releasing the first developer preview of the next version of the operating system, and users of Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets have unsurprisingly been wondering if their devices will get Android 15. Android 15 rolled out to Google Pixel devices in mid-October, and it […]
While Samsung didn't showcase One UI 7.0 at the Samsung Developer Conference (SDC) 2024, we got our hands on a device running One UI 7.0 a few weeks ago. Last week, another video appeared that managed to showcase One UI 7.0 and several new features more clearly. Now, another video has appeared that showcases One […]
You might recall that Samsung announced at the Samsung Developers Conference 2024 earlier this month that One UI 7 will be released next year.

There's a longstanding issue that has often made TV purists shun OLED TVs, at least for their brighter rooms, because the glare on the panel would just completely ruin the viewing experience. So those who wanted the benefits of OLEDs would only pick these TVs for darker rooms. Samsung has tackled this problem head-on with […]
If you're looking to buy your first mini-LED TV, chances are the Samsung QN85D Neo QLED will be at the top of your list. It's undoubtedly a great option for those who are making their first entry into the world of mini-LED. This is a solid, mid-range TV that does what it's supposed to very […]
TVs are among the several consumer electronics products that get refreshed by Samsung early in the new year and 2024 started with the launch of its new TV lineup that included the S90D.

One UI 6.1.1 was introduced in July 2024 alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. Samsung confirmed soon after that One UI 6.1.1 would be coming to older flagships through a software update, and that update went live less than two months later on September 5. One UI 6.1.1 will come […]

How do you raise the bar on the best Android flagship tablet every year? That's a question Samsung grapples with when the time comes to put out another Ultra variant of its tablet, and somehow, it manages to do just enough to warrant another look at one of its most expensive and feature-packed tablets. Samsung […]
It's been a long wait for the Galaxy Ring but it's finally here. This is Samsung's first “new” product in a while. It's one that doesn't face a lot of competition from its biggest rivals. Most smart rings available today are from companies probably worth as much as a rounding error on Samsung's balance sheets. […]
Samsung has “Ultra-fied” its smartwatch lineup this year with the Galaxy Watch Ultra. The new model has been launched alongside the Galaxy Watch 7, with which it shares much of its hardware and most of its features, but Samsung hopes to offer enough differentiation in the former to get you to pay $649. Now that's […]
The next big One UI update—version 7.0, based on Android 15—will come to several Galaxy smartphones and tablets before the end of 2024. However, for some of them, One UI 6.1.1 will precede One UI 7.0. x.1.1 One UI updates are primarily designed for Samsung's foldable phones and tablets, but that changes this year thanks […]
In Samsung's new foldables for the year 2024, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is the more attractive one. The form factor is cooler and the list of meaningful upgrades is bigger. And despite the $100 higher price tag, it's not costly enough to bankrupt you. On paper, there's a lot to like about the Flip […]
Samsung's wireless earbuds were due for a refresh and the company has given us one of the most comprehensive revamps of the product with the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. There's a bold and flash new design, improved internals, and a hard lean into Galaxy AI features. They're also $20 more expensive than their predecessor, so […]
Read our Galaxy Z Fold 6 review to find out if Samsung's flagship foldable is worth the $100 increase in price.
The Galaxy Ring is finally here and we're very excited. This is the first “new” mobile device from Samsung and the company has rightly been hyping it up. The smart ring space is ripe for disruption and Samsung sees the perfect opportunity to muscle into the space with its engineering might and deep pockets, no […]
It's been a while since we've had new wireless earbuds from Samsung and that wait has ended now. Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and Galaxy Buds 3 today at Unpacked in Paris.

Samsung has launched two new smartwatches today and while one is the very much expected Galaxy Watch 7, the other is an entirely new device that's called the Galaxy Watch Ultra. Samsung clearly wanted it to stand out from its regular lineup, hence no “7” in the name. This is one of the biggest smartwatches […]
Keep calm and carry on. That has been Samsung's mantra for its foldable phones. It keeps chugging along and releasing new iterations every year, unburdened by what the competition is doing in the foldable space. The latest representation of this attitude is the Galaxy Z Fold 6, unveiled today at Samsung's Unpacked event in Paris, […]
The Galaxy Z Flip is Samsung's most popular foldable series and with good reason. The starting price point is the same as any flagship device, so it's not overly expensive, and it's a true flagship phone given the specs that it boasts under the hood. Its clamshell form factor, portability, and versatility is just the […]
Samsung has officially announced that the next Galaxy Unpacked event will be held in Paris on July 10, a couple of weeks ahead of the 2024 Olympics.

The company has announced that its Live Translate feature, which is part of the Galaxy AI experience, will be more useful […]
If you use Samsung's navigation gestures on your Galaxy smartphone, you will not be happy when you update it to One UI 6.1. With One UI 6.1, you can only use Android's stock navigation gestures, which means you will have to force yourself to adjust to a completely new way of operating your device. That's […]
The Galaxy S24 series received positive reviews, which have converted into sales. The Galaxy S24 series broke pre-order records in several countries, and sales numbers are showing up in the charts.

Galaxy AI was the most important talking point of the Galaxy S24 series. It is a collection of AI-powered software features that simplify your daily tasks. Galaxy AI was exclusive to the Galaxy S24 for a couple of months, but it has been released to other high-end devices with the One UI 6.1 update. The […]
The Galaxy A54 was Samsung's most exciting mid-range phone last year, but it was the Galaxy A34 that ended up being the sensible choice, at least as far as value for money was concerned. The A34 was also more optimized despite having a less capable chip than the Galaxy A54. The A54's performance issues were […]
One UI 6.1, Samsung's latest major software update, is all about Galaxy AI. The Galaxy S24 came with it out of the box, enabling us to experience how an AI phone can transform the way we interact with our devices and the world around us. It goes without saying that Galaxy AI is impressive and […]

Samsung said last month that the One UI 6.1 update will start rolling out to select Galaxy devices in March.

But the wait ends tomorrow. Samsung has […]
Samsung's latest One UI 6.1 update is almost here for older Galaxy phones, including the Galaxy S23 series (including the S23 Fan Edition phone), the Galaxy Z Flip 5, and the Galaxy Z Fold 5. We've been using One UI 6.1 for the past few weeks, thanks to the Galaxy S24 lineup, but this One […]
The Galaxy A55 is Samsung's latest mid-range phone to promise a flagship-like experience without a flagship-like price, and in some ways, it really is the most premium mid-ranger from the Korean giant yet. From a design that includes Gorilla Glass Victus+ and a metal frame to a new Exynos chip that has a GPU based […]
Over a decade after the company launched one of its first smartwatches, it appears that Samsung's bringing back the squarish design for its Galaxy Watch. Some of you have followed its journey in the smartwatch market since 2013 when the Samsung Galaxy Gear was first launched. It had a 1.6-inch square-shaped Super AMOLED display, similar […]

They are, after all, leading the […]

Small phones are out of style, and even the ones made by Samsung, Apple, and Google these days aren't compact enough if you're talking about being able to use a phone with one hand 100% of the time. But lovers of small phones have to take what they get, and in the Android landscape, their […]
The Plus model in Samsung's Galaxy S lineup always ends up being the lowest-selling one, but it has its admirers and there's always the question of what Samsung can do to make the Plus models more enticing to prospective buyers. The Galaxy S24+ was the company’s chance to bring something exciting to the table, but […]
When we asked the Galaxy S24 Ultra to use AI to summarize our Galaxy S23 Ultra review, it told us that the S23 Ultra only brought incremental upgrades but was still a solid choice, and we couldn't agree more. The Galaxy S23 Ultra didn't change a lot compared to the Galaxy S22 Ultra. Still, everything […]

In case you haven't already heard, Samsung is doing a splendid job with the One UI 6.0 rollout. It all began with a beta program, as it has every year since Samsung first introduced One UI and started doing public beta tests for major software updates. The One UI 6 beta testing took a little […]
Samsung released Android 13 to Galaxy device owners late last year. The company has done an impressive job of quickly rolling it out for eligible devices.

It was only a matter of time before Samsung brought the Galaxy Buds earbuds under the Fan Edition umbrella, and the company has done that with the Galaxy Buds FE.

During the System LSI Tech Day 2023 event today, Samsung unveiled several new semiconductor technologies and chips, but the most important among them is the Exynos 2400. It is Samsung's next-generation flagship smartphone processor and succeeds the Exynos 2200, which was launched in 2022 and debuted inside the Galaxy S22. Samsung offered an early look […]
Samsung announced the Galaxy Buds FE today. They are the company's most affordable wireless earbuds, but they still bring most of the features that people like about the Galaxy Buds.

Good Lock is one of Samsung's most amazing apps. It gives you the ability to customize the look and feel of their phone's software and also alter how many critical features (such as the lock screen, multitasking, and even the keyboard) work to enhance your user experience. Samsung has been a little stingy when it […]
No matter how good a company's firmware support may be, no device lasts forever, and the time comes when every smartphone stops receiving OS updates. Samsung upgraded its firmware support policy from two to three years, then one-upped itself and committed to supporting some devices with four major OS upgrades. For 2023, the company launched […]
The Galaxy Z Fold 5 didn't turn as many heads as the Z Flip 5 because of its almost unchanged design and hardware specs that sounded too familiar from last year. But as we found out through using the device leading to our Galaxy Z Fold 5 video review, Samsung's new foldable flagship phone is […]
2022's Galaxy Watch 5 Pro may hold some advantages over Samsung's Galaxy Watch 6 lineup, but the Watch 5 series lacked the physical rotating bezel that has set Galaxy smartwatches apart from the competition for so many years. Samsung has brought that rotating bezel back with the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, and after using the […]
There's no denying the fact that the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra is one of the best Samsung tablets in 2023, but the ultimate question remains, should you buy one? This year's new tablet lineup is the continuation of the shakeup from last year when Samsung launched three flagship models, including the very first Ultra model […]
The Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra was the largest device Samsung launched at its July 26 Unpacked event in Korea.

If you look up the definition of ‘boring' in a dictionary, you might find a Galaxy Z Fold 5 vs Galaxy Z Fold 4 specs comparison in there (or you can just see that comparison here on SamMobile). Samsung's premier foldable flagship for 2023 has been criticized for not featuring enough upgrades over its predecessor, […]
The Galaxy Z Flip 5 has been getting a serious marketing push from Samsung.

Early this year, I wrote a scathing opinion over Samsung’s decision to once again hold the Galaxy Unpacked event in San Francisco. It's 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 […]

Samsung's new Galaxy Z Flip 5 is now available for pre-order and will be ready to ship out on August 11. We're happy to say we didn't have to wait that long before we could take the new foldable flip phone out for a test drive. We are at Unpacked and had the chance to […]
Our Galaxy Watch 6 and Watch 6 Pro hands-on experience at Unpacked today was quite pleasant, in that at least one of the models brings back a fan-favorite design element. Samsung seems to have a love-hate relationship with the physical rotating bezel on its smartwatches. After removing it even from the high-end Galaxy Watch 5 […]
Samsung unveiled its latest high-end tablets—Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Tab S9+, and Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra—today.

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy Z Fold 5, Galaxy Z Flip 5, the Galaxy Tab S9 series, the […]
Samsung may be the best at keeping its phones and tablets updated with the newest version of Android, but it's not usually the first one to launch devices with the most recent version of Android installed out of the box. For instance, the first Galaxy phone to launch running Android 12 was the Galaxy S21 […]
Samsung is expected to launch two new smartwatches—Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic—later this year, alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and the Galaxy Z Fold 5. The upcoming smartwatches are expected to bring improved health tracking and features. It was rumored earlier this week that the Galaxy Watch 6 would feature enhanced […]
Apple has been somewhat of a permanent fixture on Interbrand's Best Global Brands list. The overall brand perception for Apple is that it enables customers to connect, pay, play, and thrive. Even as Samsung's perceived brand value has increased significantly and it sits at the fifth spot on that list, it doesn't quite seem to […]
It wouldn't be an overstatement to say that it took Samsung nearly 15 years to finally make an Android flagship that's as fast and smooth as flagship devices should be. The Galaxy S23 series runs incredibly well, so much so that it could become a problem for Samsung going forward and its ability to match […]
Samsung's Galaxy A5x series of mid-range phones has become a bit too pricey with the latest model, the Galaxy A54 5G, and that's likely going to result in many customers turning their attention towards the Galaxy A3x lineup. The Galaxy A34 5G launched alongside the Galaxy A54 5G, and while its spec sheet isn't as […]
Leaks revealing upcoming Samsung Galaxy devices continue to pile up every year as the months pass by, giving us information on what to expect from said devices before they make their market debut.

Samsung's foldable lineup will be getting bigger this year with the addition of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and the Galaxy Z Flip 5. Both models will no doubt bring some important upgrades, such as the rumored waterdrop hinge that will finally allow Samsung's foldable phones to fold shut without leaving a gap between the […]
Well, it's finally happened: Samsung's Galaxy A5x line of smartphones is no longer the middle ground between Samsung's flagships and its budget phones, at least as far as pricing is concerned. The Galaxy A54 5G is the costliest A5x smartphone yet. The price tags have gone up each year since the Galaxy A50 launched back […]
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 ‘For Galaxy' chip has done marvels for Samsung's latest flagships. It's a custom version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 with higher clock speeds on both the CPU and GPU, and it enables the Galaxy S23 series phones to run fast extremely smooth and, as far as the Galaxy S23 […]
The regular Galaxy S23 is the best compact flagship Samsung has ever produced. The Galaxy S23 Ultra is among the best large flagship phones Samsung has ever produced. But what about the middle child, the Galaxy S23+? The S23+ is sized similarly to the S23 Ultra, and its specs are more in line with the […]
The Galaxy S23 Ultra is currently the battery life champion among all Android flagships. It goes so long on a single charge that quite a few people (including us here at SamMobile) are still coming to grips with it. While it's unclear what Samsung has done to achieve this kind of battery life, the Galaxy […]
I've been going to the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona for years, even when it was held at the previous Montjuic venue, which hasn't hosted the trade show for a long time now. I and the team members accompanying me would primarily visit to check out the Samsung booth, but it was also a great […]
Samsung's flagship tablets have so far lacked IP67 water and dust resistance but that could change this year. SamMobile hears that Samsung's upcoming flagship tablet, the Galaxy Tab S9 series, will have an IP67 rating for water resistance. This has been a longstanding demand from customers of its high-end tablets, so this possibility is certainly […]
The Galaxy S23 Ultra is easily one of the best phones Samsung has ever released, but what about the other Galaxy S23 models? Well, going by their spec sheets, the new optimized-for-Galaxy Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, bigger batteries (but still smaller than the S21 and S21+), and new front-facing camera are the real highlights. […]
We know you've been waiting patiently for it, and we're happy to announce that after months of hard work the brand new SamMobile Android app is finally here! It's available in beta right now as we're still polishing a few things to provide you with the best experience but you can now get in on […]
Samsung has always insisted that its flagship Exynos chipset can match the competitor from Qualcomm but the former has often left a lot to be desired. Previous iterations of its flagship Galaxy S phones made it clear that the Exynos was no match for the Snapdragon. The Galaxy S22 series was the last to feature […]
Samsung may have officially announced the One UI 5.1 release today (February 15), but the company has already been rolling out this much-awaited update since earlier this week. It has done a great job getting this update out so quickly, even before the One Galaxy S23 series is released on February 17. A lot of […]
The Galaxy S23 Ultra has been one of the most anticipated Samsung flagship phones of all time. And it's not surprising, because it's the sequel to last year's Galaxy S22 Ultra, which was an excellent phone, particularly because it featured a Snapdragon chip in most parts of the world instead of just the US or […]
Valentine's Day is tomorrow and if you haven't already bought a gift for that special someone in your life, you need to hustle and get one! The best gifts are those we don't expect to receive as they make us feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Samsung wants to make a lot of its customers […]
We have already written about how the Galaxy S23 Ultra is the first smartphone to take proper advantage of the 5,000 mAh battery that's been inside each Galaxy S Ultra smartphone. Its battery life is great, perhaps the best of any Galaxy S phone ever. And as I continue using it, battery life is continuing […]
One of the best features of the Galaxy S23 series is that except on the base model, you get a minimum of 256GB of storage. That stems down to the fact that Samsung is using UFS 4.0 storage on the Galaxy S23 lineup and UFS 4.0 chips start at 256GB storage, which is why the […]
The Galaxy S23 series went official less than a week ago, and we have been using various devices in the new flagship lineup since then, looking inside every nook and cranny to see what's changed on the hardware front and the software front. While it's no trouble finding out the hardware specs of a new […]
Heavy lies the head that wears the crown, so the saying goes, but Samsung seems unbothered by its weight. It's not particularly easy to so comprehensively demolish your competition year after year yet Samsung manages to do that so effortlessly that you'd think nothing could be easier. The Android smartphone landscape is a crowded one. […]
Samsung just announced the Galaxy Book 3 lineup, which consists of five models. All new Galaxy Book laptops come with faster processing, better screens, and improved battery life. They also feature some advanced software features through the Galaxy ecosystem. We had a chance to go hands-on with the Galaxy Book 3 Pro and the Galaxy […]
It's been a while since Samsung shelved the Galaxy Note smartphone series, and a new spiritual successor with a built-in S Pen just got announced at Unpacked. It's the Galaxy S23 Ultra: Big, beautiful, and massively upgraded in some areas. The Galaxy S23 Ultra brings one of the most significant camera upgrades yet for these […]
After all the unofficial reveals in recent weeks, we finally got our hands on the new Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23+ at Unpacked 2023. They're the real deal, and for a first impression — which you can watch in our hands-on video below — these two new flagship phones from Samsung might be the new […]
It's no mystery which Android manufacturer is the best when it comes to software updates. Samsung promises four Android OS upgrades for flagship and some mid-range phones and five years of security updates for many devices. And when it updated 50+ devices to Android 13 and One UI 5.0 in merely two months, the company […]
The launch of the Galaxy S23 series is only a few weeks away, so we're seeing more and more details about the new flagship phones leaking over the internet. Earlier today, official Galaxy S23 teaser videos were leaked, revealing how Samsung will be focusing on improved nighttime camera performance, and we now have information on […]
The original Freestyle projector Samsung unveiled a year ago at CES was one of the show's highlights. Samsung unveiled a refreshed model at CES 2023, and once again, its compact and portable form factor has remained one of its best features. Here's our hands-on experience with The Freestyle 2023 projector. You may have noticed that […]
Samsung's smart monitors are unique in their niche thanks to DeX integration. Although they don't offer built-in DeX, they come with wireless DeX capabilities and thus allow Galaxy smartphone users to create desktop-like experiences without dongles or PCs. However, as welcomed as this feature may be, it's not going to be the best selling point […]
Samsung Display has pushed the limits of its Micro LED TV technology once again. And at CES 2023, the consumer electronics giant revealed a new line of 4K Micro LED TVs, which now includes a sizeable 140-inch model. Although the company hasn't revealed too many details about the new range, we have had the opportunity […]
Last year, Samsung entered the OLED TV market with the release of the S95B QD-OLED model, which combined the best qualities of Quantum Dot and OLED in a single package. A year later, at CES 2023, Samsung revealed two QD-OLED sequels, aptly named S95C and S90C, which bring some important upgrades to the lineup. We're […]
Samsung unveiled its latest Neo QLED TVs at CES 2023 in Las Vegas, boasting improved Mini-LED technology and insane levels of peak brightness of 4,000 nits, among many other advanced features. The 2023 QN900C Neo QLED TV series comes in a variety of formats, and this year, Samsung added a new size to the lineup, […]
Samsung's CES 2023 presence has all been about revealing new TVs, monitors, foldable, slidable and other display concepts, and even a Galaxy A series phone. The Odyssey Neo G9 and the Odyssey OLED gaming monitors were among the new products that we managed to get some hands-on time with earlier this week, and we came […]
At this year's Consumers Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Samsung has quite a few new products, both commercial and conceptual, to show us. We're on the ground at the event and we can say that one of the coolest things we've seen from Samsung at CES this year is its hybrid slidable and foldable […]
Early next year, Samsung will unveil the Galaxy S23 series, its latest flagship smartphones that will bring improvements and upgrades over 2022's Galaxy S22 series. Naturally, with flagship phones as good as they are now, there isn't a lot that Samsung can do to lure customers into buying the new handsets. It will mostly be […]
The Galaxy S22 series of phones was the first to receive the Android 13 and One UI 5.0 update, giving millions of owners of the S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra some excellent new features to improve the user experience. Then, in the next couple of weeks (and still continuing to this day), Samsung updated many […]
The month of August back in 2020 marked two important milestones for Samsung. On August 5 that year, Samsung announced what would be the last smartphones with the Galaxy Note branding — the Galaxy Note 20 and Galaxy Note 20 Ultra — as the Korean giant decided to shift focus to its foldable phones. The […]
The 2022 holiday season is upon us and you know what that means, shopping, and lots of it! Whether you're looking to pick up gifts for friends and family or simply an end of the year treat for yourself, there's plenty to choose from. We've put together this handy SamMobile Holiday Gift Guide to help […]
By now, Samsung has established its superiority in the matter of software updates, that much is for sure. Back in 2019, Samsung became the first manufacturer to promise three generations of Android OS upgrades to mid-range and flagship phones alike. And later on, Samsung decided three major upgrades weren't enough and bumped the number up to […]
It's a huge surprise for Galaxy A53 5G users! Samsung has released the stable Android 13 (One UI 5.0) update to the Galaxy A53 5G in European countries. Originally, the phone was scheduled to get the stable One UI 5.0 update in December 2022, but Samsung has delivered the update a full month earlier. The […]
Samsung started the One UI 5.0 beta program for the Galaxy S22 series back in August. The company released a total of five One UI 5.0 (Android 13) beta updates before it kicked off the rollout of the stable One UI 5.0 update for millions of Galaxy S22 customers around the world. As each new […]
The trial period is over, and the official Android 13 and One UI 5.0 update millions of Galaxy users were waiting for is now here!

Introduction A new major Android OS upgrade arrives every year and in 2022, we got Android 13. Google unveiled this version of its mobile OS at its I/0 2022 conference on May 11, 2022. For Samsung Galaxy devices, Android 13 debuted alongside One UI 5.0 in the second half of 2022. The Galaxy S22 series […]
Android 12 is now available for over 100 million Samsung customers. And while even more devices continue to get closer to receiving the latest Android OS and One UI versions, Google is working on Android 13 in the background. The first Android 13 Developer Preview build was released in February, though it wasn't made available […]
Samsung has become pretty good at coming out with new foldable flagship smartphones every year. The Galaxy Z Fold 4 is the fourth iteration of the first foldable device from Samsung. It takes over from the Z Fold 3 which was the first foldable to feature an under-display camera, IPX8 water resistance, and support for […]
Samsung made one of the most significant changes to its smartwatch lineup last year. The Galaxy Watch 4 ditched Samsung's Tizen OS in favor of the Android-powered Wear OS. This meant users could finally get Android apps and ultimately even use Google Assistant on their smartwatches. The company usually releases two new models of its […]
Over the past couple of years, we've seen Samsung release a pair of new wireless earbuds almost every six months. It has made us wait for a year this time around. The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro are a significant upgrade over earlier models. Launched alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4, […]
Along with two new foldable phones, Unpacked 2022 also hosted a couple of new Galaxy smartwatch models and a new pair of wireless earbuds.

We're featuring […]

Now we have the opportunity to unbox and set up these brand-new devices for the first time, and we're sharing that experience with our readers and subscribers. You can check out our two new unboxing […]
The Galaxy Z Flip 3 was one of the best Samsung phones ever. It was the combination of the stylish design, unique form factor, specs, and price that made it such a hit. Samsung now has to repeat that success with the Galaxy Z Flip 4. The question is, can it? Our brief Galaxy Z […]
After the success that Samsung had with the Galaxy Z Fold 3, there are high hopes for its successor. In this Galaxy Z Fold 4 hands-on, we discuss how Samsung has made its latest flagship smartphone the personification of power and prestige. Galaxy Z Fold 4 hands-on: Samsung's best foldable yet All of the changes […]
Similar to how Samsung's Galaxy S series got an Ultra model a few years ago, the Galaxy Watch lineup now includes the first-ever Pro variant, i.e., the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro. And like the Galaxy Ultra smartphones, the Watch 5 Pro is supposed to represent the pinnacle of Samsung's wrist wearables. How different is the […]
Samsung rolled out the first One UI 5.0 beta firmware for the Galaxy S22 series yesterday. The firmware has been made available in limited markets so far.

You may have heard by now that Samsung is finally rolling out the One UI 5.0 beta. The first beta build has been released in Germany today for the Galaxy S22 series. We've got it up and running on a Galaxy S22 Ultra. So here's your first look at the official One UI 5.0 beta […]
The wait for the One UI 5.0 beta is finally coming to an end. While we expected the beta to be launched in the third week of July, it's now here after a delay of about two weeks. Fans wouldn't mind that too much as they can finally get a taste of the new firmware. […]
Samsung fans are looking forward to the One UI 5.0 public beta. It will enable them to get a taste of Android 13 on eligible Samsung devices before the final release. The company hasn't confirmed as yet when it plans on launching the beta, but we hear that it's happening in the near future. The […]
Samsung has singlehandedly been advancing the cause of Android tablets. The best Samsung tablets are also some of the best Android tablets on the market. It's also the only company that's selling Android-powered foldable smartphones at scale. Samsung devices stand to benefit from any improvements in software that Google can deliver. Google is doing just […]
At first glance, the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra seems to be one of the best Samsung tablets ever made. The company has switched things up for its tablet lineup in 2022. For the first time ever, it has released three models of its flagship tablet for the year. The “Ultra” variant that was previously limited […]
Samsung gave Galaxy Watch 4 customers the option to register for the One UI Watch 4.5 beta program late last month. Now, the first beta firmware is available for download. One UI Watch 4.5 beta introduces the first wave of changes and additions that Samsung wants to test before releasing the new software to the […]
The Galaxy M52 5G was one of the best Samsung M series phones last year, and merely six months later, Samsung has already put its successor on the market. The Galaxy M53 5G is not exactly a proper upgrade when it comes to specs, though. While it replaces the M52's 64MP main camera with a […]
Last year's Galaxy A72 had something of an identity crisis. Except for a slightly larger screen, bigger battery, and a zoom camera, it didn't have anything to set itself apart from the Galaxy A52, with Samsung going as far as using the same Snapdragon chip for both handsets despite their price difference, making the A72 […]
The entire Galaxy S22 series boasts some impressive camera chops, but when you look at the specs, the Galaxy S22 Ultra has the clear lead. With an additional zoom camera, a 108MP main camera, an ultra-wide camera that boasts autofocus tech, and a 40MP selfie camera, the Galaxy S22 Ultra has one of the best […]
Samsung has rolled out Android 12 and One UI 4.1 for more than two dozen Galaxy devices. These are the latest OS and One UI versions available, presently enjoyed by millions of customers worldwide. But of course, the mobile industry never sleeps, and from what we're hearing, Samsung is already developing One UI 4.1.1 for […]
Samsung could be working on a “Pro” version of the Galaxy Watch 5, our sources tell us. For the longest time, Samsung has launched two models of its yearly flagship Galaxy smartwatch refresh in different sizes. For 2022, the Korean giant could add a third variant to the mix, which we are going to call […]
The Galaxy M33 5G is Samsung's newest addition (as of April, 2022) to its ever-expanding portfolio of aggressively priced Galaxy M smartphones. It brings a couple of neat upgrades over the Galaxy M32 and M32 5G, including the same new Exynos chip that powers the Galaxy A53 5G, a 6,000 mAh battery, a 120Hz display, […]
Dozens of Galaxy smartphones and tablets will be updated to One UI 4.1, and millions of lucky customers are already enjoying this new firmware with all the extra features it brings. To help Samsung fans keep better track of the firmware's status and whereabouts, we've compiled the following list of Galaxy devices that have already […]
Samsung's consistently been making the best flagship Android tablets for a while, and this year the company is further increasing its focus on the tablet segment by launching its latest flagship slate in three different sizes, just like it has been doing with its premier flagship smartphone lineup since 2019. The Galaxy Tab S8 is the smallest […]
Last year's Galaxy A52 was a major hit, both in its LTE and 5G forms. It brought lots of flagship features to a lower price point, like a high refresh rate screen, stereo speakers, water and dust resistance, and even flagship-level performance if you consider the Galaxy A52s, a variant launched just a few months […]
Samsung has shelved the Galaxy Note series, and chances of it making a comeback later this year are slim-to-none. But Samsung might still surprise us at the next major Unpacked event and unveil not two but three new foldable device models — our friends at GalaxyClub have theorized based on new bits of information. New […]
There are mid-range phones and then there are mid-range phones, the Galaxy A3x series has always been the latter. Last year's device, the Galaxy A32, had all the right specs for someone who wasn't a gamer. The MediaTek chipset left a lot to be desired in the performance department. Samsung did provide a 90Hz refresh […]
The Galaxy F23 5G is yet another affordable 5G handset from Samsung for the Indian market even as there seem to be few, if any, signs of 5G networks going live in the country anytime soon. It's the cheapest 5G Galaxy smartphone in India at the moment next to the old Galaxy F42 5G, but […]
Summer isn’t actually here yet, but the sun is out and shining already in many parts of the world, and it’s only going to get brighter and hotter as the weeks go by. That means two things as far as your smartphone is concerned. Your phone’s display is going to be much harder to read […]
Last year's base Galaxy S21 model was one of the most affordable flagships from Samsung in a long time (not counting the Galaxy S20 FE or S21 FE). Its $799 price tag made it an attractive proposition, though the phone's small size meant it was for a specific target audience, one that loves small phones […]
The Galaxy Note is dead. Well, at least the brand name is. The Galaxy S Ultra is now going to take over as the Galaxy Note flagship, and if you look at the Galaxy S22 Ultra's design, you'll realize how serious the Samsung is about this change. The Galaxy S22 Ultra's design has nothing in […]
For people who want the latest flagship smartphone from Samsung at the lowest price, there's the Galaxy S22. For those who want the best, there's the Galaxy S22 Ultra. This begs the question, who's the Galaxy S22+ for? Every year, the middle child of Samsung's Galaxy S series needs to avoid an identity crisis. It […]
Samsung had a great start to 2022, with its new flagship Galaxy S22 series breaking sales records in many markets around the world, and unwilling to lose any momentum, the company has now announced two premium laptops at its MWC event in the hopes of keeping the hype going. The Galaxy Book 2 Pro and […]
The Galaxy S22 Ultra is the current top dog in Samsung's smartphone lineup, and after two weeks with the device, we're finally ready to give our verdict! Our video review of the Galaxy S22 Ultra is now live on YouTube; we'll also be doing a detailed text review in the near future for all three […]
The Galaxy S22 Ultra is a break from the norm as far as the S-line of smartphones is concerned. Its essence is that of a Galaxy Note device. If the Galaxy S21 Ultra merely offered an S Pen Case accessory, the Galaxy S22 Ultra has essentially become a Galaxy Note with a different name. The […]
Samsung announced its newest Galaxy S flagship line this month, and there's plenty to be excited about when it comes to the hardware specs of the Galaxy S22, S22+, and the S22 Ultra. Naturally, as is the case with each new Samsung flagship, the software experience is getting some improvements and new features, too. The […]
Unpacked 2022 finally gave us what we were all waiting for: an official look at the Galaxy S22 series. Thanks to Samsung, we had the opportunity to spend some time with these devices at Unpacked before they'll go on sale, and as always, we're sharing our experience with you through a few videos on our […]
Galaxy Unpacked 2022 finally went live today, and we had an opportunity to spend a bit of one-on-one time with the Galaxy Tab S8 lineup, so make sure to check our hands-on videos below for a closer look at the new flagships. As you probably know by now, the Galaxy Tab S8 series consists of […]
Samsung announced last week that it would hold the Galaxy Unpacked 2022 event on February 9, 2022. While the company didn't reveal the name of the devices, it's common knowledge that Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and the Galaxy S22 Ultra will make their debut during the event alongside the Galaxy Tab S8 series. When and […]
Samsung's first Wear OS 3 smartwatches, Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 4 Classic, have become pretty popular. They have excellent displays, good fitness and workout tracking, decent battery life, and plenty of features. With an upcoming software update, the two smartwatches will get even more features. The South Korean firm will release a major […]
The first real photo of the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra is here, and it's not shying away from highlighting the dual-camera display notch. The bezels are as thin as you'd expect, and indeed, the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra is very much on the large side, boasting a generous 14.6-inch display with a 16:10 aspect ratio. […]
Welp! It looks like someone managed to get early access to the press materials for Samsung's new flagship phone and tablet lineups and decided to put them out there in what is one of the most massive leaks we've seen yet for any of Samsung's upcoming launches. Images showing off all of the new features […]
We got a hold of real-life photos depicting a few official case models for the Galaxy S22 series. The hands-on photos showcase the Galaxy S22 and S22+ Leather Covers and the unusual Galaxy S22 Ultra Smart Clear View Cover. The latter was revealed in renders yesterday, and today's real-life photos present the same odd design […]
Samsung recently reported its quarterly earnings and the numbers showed how big of an impact its foldable smartphones have had on the company's profits. There's no denying the fact that the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 have turned out to be big hits. The Galaxy Z Flip 3 in particular has […]
Some of the best mobile devices of 2022 are about to be unveiled at Galaxy Unpacked next month, but you probably know this by now. Samsung confirmed this week that the event is taking place on February 9, and you might also be aware that both the Galaxy S22 and Tab S8 lineups are now […]
The day is not over yet, and the Galaxy S22 leaks haven't stopped. After learning earlier today that Samsung could unveil the Galaxy S22 series on February 9, the flagship trio climbed back up in the headlines on account of new press renders leaking (via @evleaks). The leaked renders below depict the base Galaxy S22 […]
Samsung hasn't bought any big companies since it acquired Harman International in 2016 for about $8 billion. It's not like the company wasn't in a position to do so. It has over $110 billion in cash sitting in the bank. Samsung wants to spend that money, too. The company has repeatedly said over the past […]
A few days ago, Samsung had revealed that it would announce the next-generation Galaxy S series smartphones in February. However, the company had not confirmed the exact date for its next Galaxy Unpacked event. Now, the Galaxy S22 launch date and time have been leaked. Reliable leakster Evan Blass (@evleaks) has published an image that […]
There's no way to put this kindly, but Samsung's been doing a terrible job lately at keeping its upcoming products under wraps before their official unveiling. The Galaxy S21 FE was leaked far and wide before its early January event, and the Galaxy S22 series is getting a similar treatment. Likewise, the upcoming Galaxy Tab […]
Samsung unveiled the Exynos 2200 earlier today. It is the company's new flagship chipset for high-end smartphones, and it will debut inside the Galaxy S22 series. It offers improved performance compared to the Exynos 2100, thanks to its new CPU and AMD GPU. Samsung even claims to provide better imaging and faster connectivity with its […]
It's got everything from an AMD GPU with PC-like graphical features such as ray-tracing to the latest ARM CPU cores.
Samsung's flagship tablet family is growing. Rumor has it that the upcoming Galaxy Tab S8 series consists of four models, three of which should debut on the same day. And for the first time in the history of Samsung tablets, all the evidence so far indicates that the Tab S series is getting an Ultra […]
The Galaxy S21 FE, after a months-long delay, is finally in our hands, and I've had the opportunity of using one for the past week or so. A lot has been said about how the S21 FE is overpriced and coming in too close to the Galaxy S22 series. I agreed with both those arguments […]
There has been a lot of speculation recently about the Exynos 2200. This is Samsung's latest flagship processor that was to be introduced with the upcoming Galaxy S22 series. Samsung normally unveils its latest high-end chipset a month or so before the new flagship lineup is announced. It had planned to do that this time […]
One of Samsung's most surprising and arguably exciting products unveiled at CES in Las Vegas is The Freestyle. What is it? Well, in case you missed the news, it's a new portable projector-smart speaker hybrid that could one day replace your TV. And yes, Samsung has somehow kept it a secret until its official unveiling […]
With the Galaxy S21 FE announced, leakers have now turned their attention back to the Galaxy S22 series, and a new seemingly official spec sheet detailing the Galaxy S22 Ultra, in particular, has now emerged on Twitter. The Galaxy S22 Ultra has a quad primary camera setup featuring an ultra-wide 12MP (f/2.2) camera with Dual […]
Samsung bedazzled everyone with its vast repertoire of smart TVs and TV-related tech at CES 2022. However, Samsung seems to have a few more aces up its sleeve when it comes to mind-blowing display tech. Enter the Samsung Odyssey Ark, a 55-inch 4K curved Mini LED monitor that takes immersion to an entirely new level. Now, […]
Last month, Samsung released the Android 12-based One UI 4.0 update to many of its high-end smartphones, including the Galaxy S21, Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20 FE, Galaxy Note 20, and its entire Galaxy Z series. Now, the company has released the Android 12 update to its mid-range smartphones for the first time, starting with the […]
Our previous report exploring the possibility that Samsung could be developing a smart display/speaker sort of came true earlier today, though with a big twist. Meet The Freestyle — Samsung's latest smart speaker equipped with a projector — or projector equipped with a smart speaker, if you prefer. Either way, Samsung's calling it The Freestyle, and it's […]
The Galaxy S21 FE isn't the same in every market, and while some regions get the variant powered by the Snapdragon 888 chipset, others receive the Exynos 2100 model. However, this year, Samsung's new Fan Edition smartphone breaks tradition and mixes things up a bit to the relief of customers in Europe. This year, the […]
We're attending the long-awaited launch of the new Galaxy S21 FE in the USA. Samsung invited us to take the new Fan Edition phone out for an early test drive before its official market release, so, given the occasion, we've prepared a hands-on video for anyone that may be interested in buying this new device […]
Samsung's released the stable version of Android 12 and One UI 4.0 for pretty much every flagship that's eligible for the upgrade, and it's only natural that the company will start updating its mid-range phones next. The Galaxy A52 is expected to be among the first mid-range Samsung phones to get Android 12, with most […]
We had exclusively reported that the Galaxy S22 series will launch in February 2022. However, its specifications and hands-on images were leaked a few days ago. Now, the clearest picture of the smartphone has been leaked, revealing that it is the spiritual successor to the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Prolific leakster Evan Blass (@evleaks) has published […]
As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words. Holidays or special occasions often drive us to take out our phones to capture precious moments and all the celebrations and fireworks that come along with them. It's especially something that has gained significant value in our post-pandemic world. And if you want to […]
Samsung‘s Android 12 update frenzy continues with the Galaxy Note 10 series. The company has just released the stable One UI 4.0 update to the Galaxy Note 10 and the Galaxy Note 10+ in Switzerland. More markets should get this major software update over the next couple of weeks. The latest software update for the […]
Credit must be given where it's due. For the longest time, Samsung users waited in disbelief as other manufacturers did a better job of sending out updates. It took unnecessarily long for Samsung phones to get the same updates. The sheer number of phones sold by the company didn't help. Neither did the carrier and […]
Samsung has been on a roll over the past few days. Yesterday, the company released the Android 12-based One UI 4.0 stable update to the Galaxy S20, Galaxy Note 20, and the Galaxy Z Fold 2. Today, the South Korean firm has released the Android 12 stable update to the Galaxy S10 series in a […]
A few weeks ago, we had exclusively reported that the Galaxy S22 will launch in February 2022. Ahead of the launch event, almost all the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and the Galaxy S22 Ultra features have been leaked. The Galaxy S22 Ultra even got leaked in its flesh. Now, more pictures of the smartphone have […]
Android 13 could be adding notification runtime permissions, a new energy management system that uses a virtual currency, per-app language options, and more.
The Galaxy S21 FE was featured in a short hands-on video yesterday, so we hope you're ready for the next level.
