Samsung seems ready to revive the Galaxy A7x line, as a surprising Galaxy A77 just surfaced on Geekbench. The listing confirms a new deca-core SoC packing the powerful Xclipse 940 GPU from the Exynos 2400 chip and more.

Samsung's Exynos 1680 chipset has been spotted inside the upcoming Galaxy A57. Paired with 12 GB of RAM, the Exynos 1680 chipset also contains an Xclipse 550 GPU. Early performance comparisons with the Exynos 1580 are not straightforward at this stage, though.

The Samsung Galaxy S26 series has leaked so much that there is practically not a single aspect of the Galaxy S26 phones that we don't know about. Adding to this ever-increasing pile, Ice Universe has now leaked the Peak Brightness of the Galaxy S26 series, and it might disappoint some fans.

Oura is suing Samsung, Zepp Health, Noise, and Reebok, claiming they rely on patented smart ring designs that the company considers central to the category. Oura wants its rivals to pay ongoing royalties or risk import bans similar to earlier cases it already won.

A new leak has suggested that the Galaxy Z Flip 8 FE may get a significant upgrade over the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE. However, it is too early to tell and the difference between the two may just be iterative.

Samsung is not due to unleash One UI 8.5 for foldables for a while yet. In the meantime, a video showcasing the improvements on the table for the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Samsung's other foldables has already been posted online.

Samsung's Galaxy Buds 4 Pro could tackle those frustrating situations where you lose sight of your handset at home with a new "Find Your Phone" feature, relying on the physical button of the earbuds' charging case.

More details about the Samsung Galaxy A57 have surfaced online following prior evidence that it will be using an Exynos 1680 chipset with an Xclipse 550 iGPU. Now, it seems that Samsung's upcoming Galaxy A56 refresh will beat the flagship Galaxy S26 when it comes to charging speeds, despite being a mid-range smartphone.

It seems the European versions of the Galaxy 26 and Galaxy S26+ will feature an Exynos chip, like their predecessors. However, this processor could prove more compelling than previous Exynos offerings when it debuts in 2026, especially given that Samsung may beat TSMC to launching the world’s first 2nm chip. Nonetheless, the performance and efficiency figures provided by Samsung appear remarkably humble at first glance.

New evidence suggests that Samsung could be bringing its first tri-foldable smartphone to North America after all. With test firmware for a US unlocked variant now being spotted on Samsung's servers, it seems that the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold may not be exclusive to China, South Korea and Southeast Asia as previous rumours alleged.

A known leaker has shared the RAM and storage configurations for the Galaxy S26 series. The same leaker had previously shared that the new phones will come with faster RAM starting at 12 GB capacity.

Early evidence has emerged relating to another pair of forthcoming Galaxy A series smartphones. Tipped to launch alongside the Galaxy A57, the pair are anticipated to replace the Galaxy A26 and Galaxy A36 as direct successors.

Samsung’s 2 nm process shows incremental improvements but a sharp yield jump. Billion dollar contracts signal its intent to challenge TSMC.

The launch of Samsung's Galaxy Buds4 earbuds is likely still a few months off. Nonetheless, a reliable source has shared extensive details about the Galaxy Buds4 and Galaxy Buds4 Pro ahead of schedule. Contained within numerous leaked videos, the information suggests that the Galaxy Buds4 series will depart from Samsung's current Galaxy Buds3 earbuds.

A new Galaxy S26 leak by Ice Universe has revealed the exact weight and thickness of the Galaxy S26 phones and compared the numbers to the respective iPhone 17 models. It appears that all three Galaxy S26 phones will be lighter and thinner than the iPhone 17 series.

The Galaxy S26 series is expected to arrive in a couple of months. However, despite multiple reports of upgraded specs and features, a leak has revealed the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Plus will not receive a wired charging boost.

Samsung has hiked contract DRAM prices by up to 60%, with DDR5 among the hardest hit. Driven by the AI boom and soaring data center demand, the surge could soon spill into retail, leaving PC gamers and builders facing noticeably higher RAM costs.

The OnePlus 15 boasts top-tier specs, but a 'hidden' detail in the memory setup is easy to miss. The 16GB variant features significantly faster LPDDR5X Ultra+ RAM than the 12GB model. We dive into the technical difference behind the "Ultra" monikers and what the speed boost means for performance.

Samsung is rumoured to be launching the Galaxy Book6 Pro and Galaxy Book6 Ultra soon with Intel Panther Lake processors. In the meantime, the company has unleashed the Galaxy Book5 Edge, a 15.6-inch laptop that adopts Qualcomm's only Snapdragon X chipset and a built-in 5G modem.

A new report has explained recent confusion about Samsung and its plans for the Galaxy S26. From reports in South Korean media, it appears that Samsung shelved plans for a major overhaul at the last minute in response to Apple's aggressive pricing strategy with the iPhone 17.

A new leak involving real-life images shows how slim the Galaxy S26 Edge would have been. The phone is said to have been cancelled by Samsung, but there are other reports that state it is still in the pipeline.

Samsung appears to have finalized the marketing name for its first double-folding tablet, as a highly reliable leaker has revealed today. Thanks to Evan Blass, further specifications of the 10-inch foldable, which will launch commercially as the "Galaxy Z TriFold", are now also known.

Qualcomm's CEO has offered insights into the company's expectations about Samsung's Galaxy S26 series. Unlike the Galaxy S25 series, Cristiano Amon does not assume that Qualcomm will supply Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipsets to all Galaxy S26 models, with Exynos chipsets apparently returning in limited capacity as well.

Samsung may be preparing to let the Galaxy Ring control the Galaxy XR headset. A code string spotted by Android Authority hints at gesture support, allowing users to navigate or select items with simple hand movements. The feature could also extend to Samsung’s upcoming smart glasses.

Early reports have offered early insights into Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip8 and Galaxy Z Fold8 foldables. To achieve a 10% increased sales volume, Samsung is said to be bringing major hardware changes to its Galaxy Z Flip line with its eighth-generation model.

Accoridng to a new report, Samsung plans to officially release the Galaxy Z TriFold in under a month's time. More a proof of what Samsung can do than a device that one could readily buy, the Huawei Mate XTs rival is tipped to retail for over $3,000 while being around 14 mm thick when folded.

The Galaxy S26 specs are becoming clearer by the day, thanks to almost daily new leaks. After confirming the new 3X Telephoto camera, Ice Universe has now revealed that the Galaxy S26 phones will feature the fastest LPDDR5X memory on the planet.

After six long years, the wireless charging speed of all three Galaxy S26 flagship phones will finally receive a substantial upgrade, according to a report from South Korea. The Galaxy S26 Ultra is said to benefit even more from the upgrade than the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26+.

Samsung is edging towards releasing its long-awaited Huawei Mate XT and Mate XTs rival. Now certified for sale in its international variant guise, the Galaxy Z TriFold is still rumoured to receive a limited global release in one form or another at this stage.

Google is tightening control over apps that secretly drain your phone’s battery. Starting March 2026, Android apps that keep devices awake for too long will face penalties and warning labels on the Play Store. The move, developed with Samsung, pushes developers to make power-efficient apps and gives users clearer insight into what’s wasting their battery life.

A new leak has suggested that the Galaxy S26 Ultra could come with a better selfie camera, though at a cost. This was believed to be a cost cutting move but it looks like there are benefits to it as well.

Samsung has listed certified renewed models of the Galaxy S25 series and the Galaxy Z Fold 6. The Galaxy S25 series listings have showed up earlier this time around, compared to the previous generation.

According to new reports, Samsung will not be bringing a new sub-7 mm thick compact flagship to market next year after all. Despite a respected leaker claiming as much last week, fresh rumours paint a more mundane picture for the Galaxy S26, with the Galaxy S26 Pro having allegedly now been scrapped altogether.

The Galaxy S26 Plus is expected to launch early next year alongside the Galaxy S26 and Galaxy S26 Ultra. In the meantime, a typically reliable leaker has provided an insight into how Samsung will visually distinguish next year's Plus from the current Galaxy S25 Plus months ahead of schedule.

Prolific leaker Ice Universe has doubled down on their previous assertion that Samsung is going to change the 3x Telephoto sensor on the Galaxy S26 series. The proposed shift from a 12 MP Sony sensor to a 12 MP ISOCELL sensor will bring all three devies, the Galaxy S26, S26 Plus, and the S26 Ultra, in alignment.

A new post by known tipster outlines when Sony, Samsung, and Apple may adopt LOFIC-based CMOS sensors. The leak suggests an industry-wide shift toward higher dynamic-range imaging between 2026 and 2028.

Samsung is reportedly planning to launch a U.S. credit card in partnership with Barclays, taking direct aim at Apple Card and Apple Wallet. The card will likely run on Visa’s network and link cashback rewards to Samsung Wallet, which the company hopes to grow into a full financial hub. Alongside the card, Samsung is said to be developing digital accounts, savings products, and Buy Now Pay Later options to strengthen its ecosystem in the United States.

The Galaxy S26 Ultra will be the only model in the series to use the powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, according to a new leak. The base and Plus models will reportedly feature the Exynos 2600, confirming a return to Samsung's dual-chip strategy. Plus, the latest report supports the previously leaked launch timeframe.

The image processor in the Exynos chipset has not often been on par with Snapdragon, as camera comparisons from previous years have shown. In 2026, however, the Exynos 2600 in the Galaxy S26 and presumably the Galaxy S26+ or perhaps even the Galaxy S26 Ultra could see significant gains in ISP features, as a leaker is currently suggesting.

A fresh leak confirms Samsung is preparing a significant design shift for the Galaxy S26. The next flagship will feature a noticeably slimmer profile and a return to a vertical camera island, breaking away from recent models.

The Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 (G60SF) has dropped sharply in price at Woot, despite being just a few months old. Originally listed at $999.99, the 500 Hz OLED gaming monitor now costs less than some 240 Hz models.

A study has revealed differences in the ability of smartwatches to detect atrial fibrillation. Overall, however, wearables from a wide range of manufacturers can reliably detect atrial fibrillation, even with few false alarms.

A new report suggests that Samsung may subject its first tri-fold smartphone to an even more limited release than previously expected. Directly rivalling the Huawei Mate XTs, the Galaxy Z TriFold may only be available in the tens of thousands, rather than hundreds of thousands as reported earlier this year.

The Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra could come with an improved facial recognition system instead of the typical IR sensors. It is said to be more secure and work in all kinds of lighting conditions.

Unrealistic rumors and leaks continue to circulate about the Galaxy S26 Ultra, which will supposedly have Samsung's best camera yet starting at the end of February 2026. Current information from a reliable leaker indicates what will likely be the biggest upgrade in the Galaxy S26 generation and why a larger 3x telephoto lens is unrealistic.

A Samsung Senior Vice President has given us our first hint at the thermal management of the Exynos 2600. Through the use of a Heat Pass Block, Samsung has apparently reduced the temperature of the Exynos 2600 by quite a large margin.

Reality check: After a somewhat imaginative leaker raised high hopes for major camera changes in the Galaxy S26 Ultra a few days ago, early debug tests reveal what is probably a more realistic "upgrade" that Samsung has planned for the successor to the Galaxy S25 Ultra. At least charging tests indicate noticeable improvements in fast charging. (Update: New camera app features such as 24 MP photos will be standard, like on the iPhone 17.)

New information regarding Samsung's 2026 flagship candybar smartphones has emerged in South Korean media. Apparently, rising component costs make price increases across the Galaxy S26 series inevitable, despite recent behaviour from the company suggesting otherwise.

One of the first accessories for all three Galaxy S26 models offers a glimpse into the design of Samsung's three flagship phones of 2026, particularly regarding the shape and size of their displays. The Galaxy S26 Ultra's front design closely resembles that of its two siblings.
