Taking the Galaxy Fold on holiday: It survived Egypt

After returning home from Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt yesterday, I thought I'd pen down my experience of taking the Galaxy Fold with me on holiday. As many of you are aware, Sharm el-Sheikh is a resort town that sits on the coastal strip along the Red Sea. There are amazing beach-side resorts which also means there's […]

New Galaxy Fold hands-on: Rising like a phoenix from the ashes!

Many were quick to write off the Galaxy Fold when Samsung decided to delay the launch. They felt that Samsung had rushed the product in order to beat Huawei to the market. Much like the death knell was rung for the Galaxy Note series after the Galaxy Note 7, the critics called on Samsung to […]

Samsung only has itself to blame for spoiling its product launch events

Samsung only has itself to blame for spoiling its product launch events

There hasn't been much to look forward to during Samsung's Unpacked product launch events over the past few years. Rumors and reports aside, actual press renders of unreleased devices start showing up in glorious high resolution weeks before the launch. Consequently, the element of surprise is taken away and you kind of feel like meh […]

Samsung Galaxy Fit review: A well rounded $100 fitness band

A few weeks ago we reviewed the Samsung Galaxy Fit e. It’s the most inexpensive fitness band that Samsung currently has on the market. But while the Fit e certainly offers good bang for the buck, the low price means it’s a little light on the number of features. Fortunately, Samsung has more on the […]

Galaxy Note 10 headphone jack removal will disappoint loyal customers

Many of you still remember the initial press reactions when Samsung first introduced its Galaxy Note series. Their verdict was that the phone was too big and that customers wouldn't want such a large display. However, the customers proved them wrong.

Samsung needs to fix the haptic feedback on its smartphones

Samsung needs to fix the haptic feedback on its smartphones

I, quite literally, had a rude awakening this morning. The alarm on my Galaxy S10+ went off and it felt like being woken up by being touched with electric wires. I had forgotten to turn off the vibration so its intensity was on full display when the alarm went off. It just reminded me of […]

Samsung Galaxy Fold ‘review’: The future is (almost) here

Where Apple decided to use the tenth anniversary of the iPhone to finally bring the device up to par with the competition (adding an AMOLED display and reducing the atrociously large bezels the iPhone had always had before the iPhone X), Samsung went on a different tangent altogether. The Galaxy S10 is an impressive flagship […]

The Galaxy S11 must be Samsung’s flagship ‘camera’ phone

The Galaxy S11 must be Samsung’s flagship ‘camera’ phone

After the announcement of Huawei's P30 series, I've come to one conclusion: The Galaxy S11 must be a camera-focused flagship. The gap between Samsung's and Huawei's camera tech is getting a bit too big. While Samsung led the industry a few years ago, Huawei has begun to steal the Korean giant's thunder in the last […]
