Galaxy S

The designs of Samsung's next flagship tablets have been revealed. Featuring thin bezels and AKG-branding, the Galaxy Tab S7 and Galaxy Tab S7+ will be Samsung's answer to Apple's iPad Pro range. The Tab S7 series may launch as soon as July 22.

Tipster @UniverseIce showed off a snazzy pair of Samsung Galaxy Note 21 and Galaxy Note 21 Ultra renders. The unofficial designs showcase a zero-bezel display, with what appear to be an under-display front camera and an under-display fingerprint scanner.

Samsung is currently working on a new device: the Galaxy S20 FE. The new phone is expected to be a more affordable flagship for the masses and is poised to take on the upcoming OnePlus 8T with a Snapdragon 865 and the very impressive 50 MP ISOCELL GN1 sensor.

A Twitter tipster has claimed that the upcoming Galaxy Note 20 series will not be capable of a 120 hertz (Hz) refresh rate when their displays are set to a QHD+ resolution, according to someone currently in possession of these devices. Therefore, they may be restricted to the higher rate at FHD+ only, as with the current S20 flagships. This contradicts an earlier rumor on the subject.

According to a report by a South Korean media outlet, some upcoming Samsung phones might come without a charger in the box. Samsung says that most smartphone users already have a charger and don't need a new one every time they buy a phone. The move will also help Samsung save a few extra bucks and pass the savings on to the customer.

Samsung is expected to launch its next generation of Galaxy S flagships, the S21 series, sometime in Q1 2021. New information, however, claims that all the Galaxy S21 phones will feature Samsung's in-house Exynos 1000 chipset instead of having some Snapdragon 875-powered models as is typical.

Samsung has confirmed that its next Galaxy Unpacked event will take place on August 5. The event, the first from the company to be held online only, will be streaming from 10 a.m. ET where it is expected that the Galaxy Note 20 and Galaxy Fold 2 will debut.

Samsung has announced that the latest firmware updates for the Galaxy A51 and A71 port some features that had heretofore been exclusive to the OEM's flagships to these mid-rangers. They mainly consist of camera-app upgrades such as the addition of Live Focus, Single Take and Smart Crop.

A promo video for the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 has been leaked at the same time as some live images of the upcoming smartwatch were revealed via NCC certification. The video clip for the Galaxy Watch 3 focuses more on the software functions of the wearable rather than its overall physical appearance.

A 3C certification listing was recently spotted for the Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 5G and indicates that the foldable will come with the same 25W charger as the Samsung Galaxy S20. This means the Galaxy Fold 2 will likely charge from 0 to 50 percent in just half an hour.

Some phones from 2019 and 2020 that bear the Samsung Galaxy name now have OTA updates that contain the latest Android security patch. They include the S20 series, as well as the Note 10s. Some higher-end Ax0 devices are also included in this list, which has appeared markedly early in the month.

Samsung Germany has confirmed that it will be releasing a 5G version of the upcoming Galaxy Tab S7+. Rumoured to be launching on August 5, the 12.4-inch tablet is thought to have a 120 Hz refresh rate, a Snapdragon 865 SoC and a 10,000 mAh battery. A 15 W charger is expected to be included in the box now, too.

Evan Blass has revealed the full product stack for the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3, which includes a black titanium edition and two watch case sizes. Blass also claims that the series will cost anywhere from US$400 to US$600, which would make the Galaxy Watch 3 considerably more expensive than the Watch Active2.

Evan Blass has published a 360° GIF of the Galaxy Z Flip 5G in Mystic Bronze. The device, which Samsung is rumoured to be launching on August 5 at a Galaxy UNPACKED event, will sport the same design as the current Galaxy Z Flip.

Geekbench has seemingly confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 will feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC and 8 GB of RAM. The Galaxy Tab S7 is thought to be launching next month with a 7,760 mAh battery and alongside the Galaxy Note20 series.

A leak has seemingly confirmed the launch date of the Galaxy Watch 3, Samsung's next flagship smartwatch series. Thought to be arriving in 41 mm and 45 mm sizes, the Galaxy Watch 3 will also come in LTE and Wi-Fi only variants. According to this leak, the Galaxy Watch 3 will arrive a few days earlier than the expected launch of the Galaxy Note 20 series and several new foldable Samsung smartphones too.

New leaked Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 images show the upcoming wearable in both black titanium and what has been classified as bronze, although it certainly looks more like rose gold. It appears Samsung has opted to go for an elegant design for its Galaxy Watch 3, although that does not mean style has been entirely chosen over substance.

Lightweight case, very long battery runtime, and integrated LTE: You should have a closer look at the Samsung Galaxy Book S if you are looking for a mobile companion and you do not want to rely on public Wi-Fi networks. You should definitely be aware of the limitation to 32-bit apps before you buy the notebook.

It appears that the Tizen OS has been redesigned for the upcoming smartwatch, which is expected to be launched in August. The Galaxy Watch 3 will come in 41 mm and 45 mm size variants.

Feature Samsung released the Galaxy Note 9 two years ago. Unlike most flagship phones from that era, however, the Note 9 still manages to look fresh, while offering premium features and performance, even by today's standards. And that, perhaps, is why it'll go down as the last truly great Android flagship.

Tipster @IceUniverse revealed new details about Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Fold 2 device. However, the thinner bezels and larger display raise concerns about durability, especially in the aftermath of Foldgate.

Samsung announced the Galaxy S20+ BTS Edition a few days ago, and it went on pre-order yesterday, with the purple Buds+ BTS Edition as a bonus. To absolutely no one's surprise, the phone has proven to be a masterstroke by Samsung, as it sold out within an hour.

The rumor mill for the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 series grinds on. New information claims the base Galaxy Note 20 will be more of a Note 20 Lite than anything and will sport a FHD+ 60 Hz display—worse than the display on the Galaxy S20.

Samsung has announced BTS Editions of the Galaxy S20+ and Galaxy Buds+. The former will be available in 5G and LTE variants, while all devices will come with BTS photocards. The Galaxy Buds+ are available to pre-order now, with the Galaxy S20+ BTS Editions joining the earbuds on June 19.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 has been given the OnLeaks treatment, with the device looking uncannily like its predecessor.

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy Tab S7 and Galaxy Tab S7+ in August alongside a host of other hardware including the Galaxy Note 20 series.

The price of the Samsung Galaxy S20+ BTS Edition has been revealed, and it is surprisingly good value for money. For €1,049, Samsung will include a Galaxy S20+ 5G, a Wireless Charger Pad and a pair of Galaxy Buds+. You would need to spend at least 20% more to get the regular versions.

An industry insider states that Samsung is working on a Lite version of the Galaxy S20 series. There are three variants of the Galaxy S20 Lite in the works, all of which will come with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC. They are billed to launch with One UI 2.5 out of the box and 128GB of internal storage.

After going through the website's rigorous camera tests—and performing impressively—the OnePlus 8 Pro has now also been subjected to DxOMark's audio tests. It is, at the very least, competitive, as it compares nicely to other flagships like the S20+ and Pixel 4.

The BTS Edition of the Samsung Galaxy S20+ is headed to Europe. Leaked earlier this week by Evan Blass, the special edition model comes with 128 GB of storage and in a fetching purple hue. There are plenty of cues that you are part of BTS' ARMY, too.

Intel has finally detailed the Lakefield family of processors based on the Foveros 3D packaging tech. The current Lakefield lineup includes the Core i3-L13G4 and the Core i5-L16G7, which are 7 W penta-core parts featuring a 10nm Sunny Cove and four 10nm Tremont cores. Intel Lakefield is available in the Samsung Galaxy Book S and will also power the upcoming Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold and the Microsoft Surface Neo.

Reports from a few weeks ago claimed that Samsung would finally ditch OLED's made by Samsung Display in favor of ones supplied by Chinese manufacturer BOE. That plan may now be dead in the water, however, as new information claims BOE's OLEDs failed to pass Samsung's quality tests.

An iPhone 11 Pro user has reported that their phone displays a green tint under certain conditions. It's currently unknown if this is a software or hardware issue. It isn't the first time something of the sort has happened, though, as there have been similar reports with the Google Pixel 4 XL, OnePlus 8 Pro, and Galaxy S20 Ultra over the past year.

Listings on the Chinese 3C battery certification database seemingly confirm the existence of the Samsung Galaxy S20 5G (listed as the SM-N9810) and the Galaxy Z Flip 2 (listed as the SM-F7070). Details have now emerged about battery capacity for these two devices.

Verizon has augmented its 5G phone offerings with the Samsung Galaxy S20 UW variant. However, some users have been dismayed to find this phone lacks the microSD card support found in other SKUs of this phone. Furthermore, it also has less RAM compared to its unlocked counterpart.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 name has been revealed in a new round of technical certification. It was previously unknown if the smartwatch would be called the Galaxy Watch 2 or Galaxy Watch Active 3, so it looks like Samsung has plumped for an understandable compromise with the moniker Galaxy Watch 3.

The OnePlus 8 Pro has now made the trip over to DxOMark, where it impressed by breaking into the top ten, ahead of the Galaxy S20+ and iPhone 11 Pro Max, but below phones like the Mi 10 Pro and Galaxy S20 Ultra.

Reportedly launching as four variants in August, Samsung is also said to be bringing back the physical rotating bezel back for the Galaxy Watch 2. Rumoured to be available in two sizes too, the Galaxy Watch 2 may also come in LTE and Wi-Fi only variants.

Samsung's One UI skin is generally hailed as one of the best OEM skins available right now, and is packed full with in-depth power-user features. All of that seems to be sorely missing in one segment: mobile hotspot, with Samsung's mobile hotspot controls being one of the most bare-bones of all Android skins.

A few sites have been reporting that Samsung’s new Exynos 992 chipset that could feature in the Galaxy Note 20 line will incorporate ARM’s new Cortex-A78 cores and in-house custom team Cortex-X1 cores. However, given both the minor name change and the Samsung’s previous mid-year chip upgrade track record, it is likely to be nothing more than a die-shrink of the existing Exynos 990.

A Samsung Galaxy Book S powered by the Intel Lakefield Core i5-L16G7 processor has popped up on Samsung Canada's online store making this the first x86-based Galaxy Book S.
