The possibility of a launch for the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE during its maker's upcoming major Unpacked 2023 event has grown stronger with a new leak purporting to spill its charging details in advance. The keenly-awaited smartphone might debut alongside new smart tracking tags of a similar name with upgraded connectivity.

Hands-on images of the Galaxy Z Fold5 have appeared online, roughly three weeks before Samsung's official launch. While this year's Galaxy Z Fold will feature an improved hinge mechanism, it will not fully eliminate the gap between the device's two halves when closed.

Samsung India has teased the launch of the Snapdragon 888-powered Galaxy S21 FE in India. While its exact release date is unknown, it will supposedly cost INR 49,999 (US$610).

The July security patch has started rolling out in the US, where all Galaxy S23 series devices locked on T-Mobile are receiving the 425 MB software package. Other regions should follow in the coming days. The update is based on Android 13 and doesn't include any new features or performance improvements.

Samsung is preparing to launch the Galaxy M34, which will arrive in just over a week's time. The Galaxy M34 has a 5G chipset, a 6,000 mAh battery and a Super AMOLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate, among other features.

A reliable leaker has shared renders and dimensions of the Galaxy A25 5G, one of Samsung's next entry-level Galaxy A series smartphones. With next to visual changes from the current Galaxy A24 4G, it appears that Samsung plans to stick with its established design language for at least another generation.

Samsung looks set to debut the Galaxy S23 FE later in the year after opting out of a Galaxy S22 FE release last year. Renders of the sub-premium device have now leaked online, revealing a design consistent with Samsung's recent smartphones.

Various new details about the Galaxy Z Flip5 have emerged online, courtesy of several sources. From alleged European pricing to over 40 official images, there is little left for Samsung to reveal at next month's Galaxy Unpacked event.

A reliable leaker has shared nearly three-dozen official images of the Galaxy Z Fold5, a month before the device's rumoured launch date. The same leaker has also provided what appears to be full device specifications, with camera, display and memory details all disclosed.

According to reports, Samsung is developing three new flagship smartphones under 'Project Muse'. Dubbed Muse1, Muse2 and Muse3, the trio are expected to launch in early 2024 as the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24 Plus and Galaxy S24 Ultra. Allegedly, at least the latter will contain a 5x optical zoom camera, a significant change from recent Ultra models.

According to reports, Samsung plans to release Galaxy Tab S9 FE and Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus tablets, not just flagship Galaxy Tab S9 models. Seemingly, the Galaxy Tab S9 FE series will arrive alongside another Fan Edition device too, the Galaxy S23 FE.

Reputedly, Samsung has made wholesale changes to the displays in its flagship Galaxy Tab S tablets. The result should yield improved contrast ratios, among other improvements. Only the smallest Galaxy Tab S9 series model is expected to feature a larger battery than its predecessor, though.

Samsung remains a few weeks away from releasing the Galaxy Watch6 and Galaxy Watch6 Classic. Nonetheless, a leaker has outlined display, RAM and battery details about both smartwatches. The pair are tipped to feature narrower display bezels, larger batteries and 25% more RAM than last year's models.

Alleged European pricing for all Galaxy Watch6 models has surfaced online. Reportedly, the Galaxy Watch6 series will start at €319.99; colours for all models have leaked too.

The supposed colors for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5, Z Flip5, Galaxy Watch6, Galaxy Watch6 Classic, and Galaxy Tab S9 series have been shared. A diamond color is offered for the majority of the devices, as is graphite, but it is cream that will be an option for almost all of the Galaxy products except the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic.

New leaked Samsung Galaxy Unpacked promotional images have been shared online that show all the devices that are likely to be unveiled at the launch event expected to be held in July. One of the promo images alone confirms at least four devices that are shown together, including the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 series, Galaxy Buds3, and the Galaxy Tab S9 series.

The beautiful 'Phantom White' color variant of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus has now received one of its most notable discounts ever as a well-known online retailer is selling the 256GB SKU for a whopping 50 percent off its original list price.

Samsung is now once again said to grace its latest flagship smartphones with a preview of its newest software a couple of weeks early in 2023 compared to 2022. One UI 6.0 Beta 1 is now backed to land in "the third quarter" of this year. It is projected to support Samsung apps optimized for Android 14, and may be another sign of an early launch for devices such as the Galaxy Z Fold5.

Samsung is over a month away from unveiling new devices at its 27th Galaxy Unpacked event. In the meantime, a reliable leaker has offered a first look at the Galaxy Tab S9 series, with the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra set to be the marquee model of the three tablets available.

Although Samsung's official update policy suggests that the Galaxy S20 series is only eligible to receive quarterly security patches three years after launch, the former flagship smartphones are still being updated on a monthly basis, which is a pleasant surprise for Android users who are still holding onto their beloved device.

Samsung has released its anticipated camera update for the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23 Plus and Galaxy S23 Ultra. Available as AWF1, the 2.2 GB download contains various camera improvements and system stability improvements.

A couple of new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 leaks have turned up, detailing the full specs for the upcoming foldable smartphone and even showing it off in a supposed press render. Many details about the Galaxy Z Fold5 have already been leaked, but these two new leaks offer up a more complete picture of Samsung’s premium foldable for 2023.

There are still a few weeks to go before Samsung refreshes its foldable, tablet and smartwatch lineups with new models. In the intervening period, a retailer has shared an extensive list of first-party accessories destined for the Galaxy Watch6 and Galaxy Tab S9 series, plus the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Galaxy Z Flip5. With nearly 100 entries, the list contains existing accessories and various new editions too.

The top-tier Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is currently on sale at Amazon. The 42% discount drops the price to US$699, which is the same price as the new Galaxy S23. The S22 Ultra offers similar performance to the S23 but adds a more robust camera system.

Samsung has certified the Exynos W930 as a future wearable chipset, seemingly dispelling rumours that it planned to release the Galaxy Watch6 series with the Exynos W980. The model number of the Exynos W930 suggests that it contains hardly any upgrades over the Exynos W920 too.

Samsung has patented a method for determining how many calories have been consumed using a spectroscope. Theoretically, the patent will allow future Galaxy Watch smartwatches to automatically calculate the amount of calories a wearer consumes, which escapes the Galaxy Watch5 series.

According to leakers, Samsung has improved the ruggedness of its foldables with its fifth-generation models. While Motorola has certified its new flagship foldable as IP52 certified, Samsung is expected to go even further with this summer's Galaxy Z Flip4 and Galaxy Z Fold5.

Samsung has now shared the first beta for One UI 5 Watch and Wear OS 4. Rolling out now as a 1.5 GB download for the Galaxy Watch4, Galaxy Watch4 Classic, Galaxy Watch5 and Galaxy Watch5 Pro, the update is the first change to test Wear OS 4 outside of an emulator.

Samsung has teased initial details about its next Galaxy Unpacked event. So far, the company has confirmed that it will showcase a new generation of foldable devices, rumoured to be the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Galaxy Z Flip5. Samsung has also hinted at the date of next month's hardware announcement, confirming earlier rumours.

With generous discounts of over 20% available to some of its siblings as well, the 128 GB green Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is currently available on Amazon with an excellent discount of 33%. Thanks to it, those interested can get this previous-generation flagship device for US$799.99 instead of US$1,199.99.

There has been some considerable conjecture over what the recently discovered mysterious Samsung SM-S919O device could actually be. A couple of well-known leakers have been offering their opinions, with one stating it could be a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Exynos 2300 smartphone and the other opining that the Galaxy Note series could be in for a surprise revival.

According to a new report, making the Galaxy S23 Ultra cost Samsung ~39% of its current official retail value per unit. About 35% of this production cost went on the super-premium Android smartphone's class-leading new processor, with another ~14% going on its headlining rear cameras. The total bill is still less than that of an iPhone 14 Pro Max, at least.

Analyst Ross Young has provided more details about the colour options Samsung has created for the Galaxy Z Flip5 and Galaxy Z Fold5. While the pair are expected to share a few options, there will be more colours available for the Galaxy Z Flip5 than the Galaxy Z Fold5.

Samsung’s Galaxy Watch6 Classic has surfaced in the first renders of the device. A key highlight is the return of the mechanical rotating bezel that was dropped for a touch-based version on the Galaxy Watch5 Pro.

Samsung is could be working on a mashup between a Chromebook and a Dex dock for its line of Galaxy smartphones. The details on the device are scant at this stage, although it suggests Samsung is keen to more deeply integrate its hardware in the vein of Apple.

A South Korean media outlet says Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Unpacked will be held on July 26 in Seoul. Products announced at the event will be available for purchase on August 11.

Amazon US has taken US$450 off the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 in a new deal. Bringing the foldable down to as little as US$1,349.99, the deal also takes US$450 off 512 GB variants.

Samsung has detailed more camera refinements for the Galaxy S23 series, which will be headed to all models. Apparently, the option of choosing 2x portrait zoom will soon return, as will fixes for issues viewing HDR shots in the stock gallery app.

Samsung has announced that the Galaxy Watch6 series will be its first smartwatch capable of warning people of an irregular heart rate without manually performing an electrocardiogram (ECG). The company hopes to bring the same functionality to all smartwatches running One UI 5 Watch, spanning the Galaxy Watch4 and Galaxy Watch5 series.

Case designs for the Galaxy Z Flip5 have started appearing online, roughly two months before Samsung is anticipated to announce its fifth-generation foldable. As expected, the Galaxy Z FLip5 has an unusual cover display, with a tabbed look that does not cover all the space available.

The Galaxy S23 - or, perhaps even its long-awaited, allegedly upcoming Fan Edition varient - is now slated to launch in a new color, likely to be dubbed Lime, soon. However, it seems the new choice of finish is exclusive to one market in which the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy-powered vanilla flagship is sold: India. The OEM has hinted that it will be available "soon".

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 is likely to sport a 3.4-inch cover display with a 720p resolution. The larger screen estate could mean added functionality and more capable widgets than what is currently possible with the Galaxy Z Flip4.

Samsung has presented a new version of One UI Watch, now known as One UI 5 Watch. Arriving later this month via a public beta, One UI 5 Watch is not slated to launch until the new Galaxy Watch series smartwatches do. In the meantime, Samsung has outlined a few changes between One UI Watch 4 and One UI 5 Watch.

It appears that Samsung is finally ready to move on from tiny cover displays in its clamshell foldables. Based on various Galaxy Z Flip5 renders, Samsung will adopt a generously-sized cover display as it looks to see of competition from the likes off Oppo, Vivo and Motorola.

Samsung is preparing to release the Galaxy Z Fold5 later this year, likely alongside the Galaxy Z Flip5. In the meantime, a renowned leaker has shared high-resolution renders, a 360-degree video of the Galaxy Z Fold5, and dimensions comparing the upcoming foldable against the current Galaxy Z Fold4.

According to a renowned leaker, Samsung has settled on bringing back the design of the Galaxy Watch4 Classic for the Galaxy Watch6 Pro. However, Samsung is expected to introduce a few design modernisations, including thinner display bezels.

Samsung has activated the temperature sensor it includes in the Galaxy Watch5 and Galaxy Watch5 Pro, months after releasing the pair. The infrared sensor should be capable of collecting precise data, but only in certain circumstances. The new feature arrives through the pair's latest software update.
