Why the Galaxy Z Fold 2 will be the ultimate smartphone for enthusiasts
If the original Galaxy Fold was primarily a tablet with a smartphone undertone, the Galaxy Z Fold 2 is surely blurring the lines between the smartphone and tablet concepts with a lot more elegance and confidence. It was difficult to recommend the original Galaxy Fold to smartphone users were unsure of the form factor, but this […]

Why Samsung shouldn’t listen to Google’s request for more control
It was reported earlier today that Google and Samsung are in negotiations over giving preference to Google's services on Galaxy devices at the expense of Samsung's own services. If reached, such a deal would result in Google Assistant being prioritized over Bixby, Play Store achieving more prominence over the Galaxy Store, and Google having more […]

Samsung has nailed its smartwatch strategy and Apple knows it
Yes, this might seem like a controversial claim, but hear me out. We have seen all manner of smartwatches from Samsung ever since it started launching them under the Galaxy Gear brand in 2013.

Samsung’s in trouble with its diehard fans and they’re running out of patience
It used to be that the thing Samsung's most loyal fans used to complain about a lot was software updates. One could cut the company some slack. It launches dozens of smartphones every year and not only do they require software support, but the dozens released in the previous years also do so as well. […]

Galaxy Note 20 might give you a reason to buy the Galaxy Fold 2 instead

Samsung just gave me a reason to skip the next Galaxy Fold
It's almost April. The Galaxy Fold hasn't been updated to Android 10 and One UI 2.0 yet. Yes, I know Samsung has said from the start that the Fold is scheduled to get Android 10 in April, but it still feels off. And while my Fold languishes on Android Pie six months after it went […]

Some of you may not agree with this statement but I have a strong feeling that you'll end up agreeing with me by the end of this piece. As far as smartphones are concerned, there's not much that surprises me anymore. I've been in this business long enough to have tested more phones than I […]
