There’s a lot of stuff that happens in the mobile industry, something that is especially true when it comes to giants like Samsung. If you missed out on some (or all) of what happened in the last 24 hours or so, well, here’s a recap of all the big things that went down.
A rather unbelievable rumor came out about the Galaxy Note 4, stating that Samsung's upcoming flagship will only feature a 12-megapixel camera (with optical image stabilization), which doesn't sound very likely given how upbeat Samsung has been about its new 16-megapixel ISOCELL camera sensors. Samsung announced its intentions to use Assertive Display in its future flagships in order to offer a better viewing experience, and Android 4.4.2 KitKat rolled out to the AT&T variant of the Galaxy Note II.
Here’s the full rundown:
- • Samsung licenses Assertive Display for future Exynos-powered smartphones
- • Rumor: Galaxy Note 4 to feature 12-megapixel camera with optical image stabilization
- • AT&T's Galaxy Note II is receiving Android 4.4.2 KitKat
As usual, a lot of devices got general firmware updates as well, so here’s a list of all the updates that rolled to Samsung devices yesterday (as always, you can download all these firmware and more from our firmware section):
