Hey Samsung, don’t let Oppo foldable phone users have all the fun

Samsung is far from the only company making foldable phones. Most Chinese manufacturers have jumped on the bandwagon as well. However, since they aren't releasing those products widely, these obviously tend to get overshadowed by the global distribution muscle of Samsung. Having had a chance to try out some of those foldable phones recently, I'm […]

Huawei lands in hot water after tracking MWC 2023 visitors

Huawei was the biggest surprise at MWC 2023, it’s far from dead

I've already written about why Samsung's MWC presence felt so underwhelming this year. It seems that the Mobile World Congress isn't quite the priority that it was once was for the company. So while Samsung may be moving on to focus its energies elsewhere, Huawei turned out to be the biggest surprise for me at […]

OnePlus Pad may spark the rivalry Samsung tablets are missing

Samsung is dominating the Android tablet market, and half the reason is that the company barely has any competition. Android OS was historically bad for the tablet form factor, but things changed, and Samsung's hardware and proprietary One UI were a big part of that. Samsung remains one of the few Android developers invested in […]

Samsung Display’s Flex demo at MWC 2023 was mighty impressive

We spent the last few days at MWC 2023 attending Samsung's booth and other exhibitions, and admittedly, we didn't find Samsung's presentations all that impressive. That's the downside of the tech giant hosting dedicated Unpacked launch events for high-end products separate from the industry. Nevertheless, one thing that stood out was the Samsung Display showcase, […]

Motorola’s 2023 Razr foldable flip phone coming soon for a head start on Galaxy Z Flip 5

Motorola has just confirmed that it will release a new Razr foldable phone “very soon.” No time frame or exact release date was confirmed, but judging by the terminology used by the company, the upcoming Motorola Razr could hit the shelves earlier than the Galaxy Z Flip 5.

Samsung’s MWC 2023 booth made me feel it should copy Apple

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 […]

World’s first QD-OLED TV with 120Hz Dolby Vision uses Samsung’s display

While Samsung and LG unveiled their 2023 TV lineups at CES 2023 earlier this year, Sony waited for MWC 2023 to unveil its new TVs for this year. The company has a good mix of direct-backlit LCD TVs, full-array backlit LCD TVs, Mini-LED TVs, and OLED TVs in its new TV lineup, and its flagship […]

Samsung might soon find a new global rival in Honor

Samsung's appearance at MWC 2023 has so far been a bit of a letdown. The company didn't have much to show at the tech event in Barcelona, mainly because it unveiled the Galaxy S23 series and the Galaxy Book 3 laptops at Unpacked on February 1. Samsung's rivals, however, had more intriguing announcements to make, […]

Tecno cuts corners with Phantom V Fold to undercut Samsung in India

The mobile industry teased the so-called “year of the foldable phone” a few times before, but 2023 might really be it. The definition fits, at the very least, in terms of the number of OEMs willing to try their luck competing with the dominant brand, which obviously is Samsung. And at MWC 2023, a new […]

Xiaomi uses Harman’s brand better than Samsung, which owns it

We have team members at MWC 2023 in Barcelona as we speak, visiting booths hosted by Samsung and other brands. We just paid Xiaomi's booth a visit, where the company is showcasing the Mi Mix Fold 2 foldable phone — a rival to the Galaxy Z Fold 4 — among other devices. And we couldn't […]
