It's only been a couple of days since we leaked information about the upcoming Tizen-powered NX500 and NX3300 mirrorless cameras, which got listed by a Europe-based re-seller.

Samsung registers three new patents, including one for a wireless charger

In a bid to keep their innovations to themselves, companies often patent designs and technologies even though they're aware actual implementation is a long-shot from where they stand.
