Ahead of its expected August debut at Unpacked, Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Tab S9 series has now made its first trip to Geekbench, with single-core and multi-core test results that edge out the Galaxy S23 Ultra.
Samsung's latest Galaxy S23-series flagship Android smartphones have been released to pre-order in India via several channels, Amazon included. They start at ~US$970 on that site, rising to at least ~US$1,515 for the top-end Ultra option. Then again, for those who would be content with their 2022 counterparts, they are now available at discounts of up to 38% right now.
The Samsung Galaxy S23 series has not even been released yet and one well-known leaker has already predicted hard times ahead for both the S22 Ultra and S23 Ultra. With the Vivo X90 Pro+ seemingly being a major threat to the success of the Galaxy S23 Ultra, the same tipster has offered up early expectations for the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 FE may be on the way after all. Following reports of a cancellation earlier in the year, word on the grapevine now seems to indicate that the Galaxy S21 FE's successor is on the way, along with the bean-style Galaxy Buds2 Live.
A supposed test photo taken by a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra prototype has been shared by a well-known leaker alongside a comparison image taken with the Galaxy S22 Ultra. The expected bump from a 108 MP main camera to a 200 MP sensor is dramatically demonstrated upon inspection of the two shots. The Galaxy S23 Ultra’s effort is plainly superior.
According to new reports, the Galaxy S23 could be somewhat of a disappointment for fans of ever-shrinking bezels. While many Android OEMs continue their gradual moves towards releasing a smartphone with no display bezels whatsoever, a reliable leaker claims the opposite will be true with the Galaxy S23, which may look a bit chunkier than the current Galaxy S22.
Samsung has announced changes for its Expert RAW app. While the camera app has gained new features, it will not support the Galaxy S20 Ultra's telephoto camera. Neither the Galaxy S20 Ultra, nor the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra or the Galaxy Z Fold2 will support Expert RAW until September at the earliest, either.
Samsung might not launch the Galaxy S22 FE this year. Sammobile has heard from its sources that the smartphone has been shelved, debunking earlier rumours about it running a Dimensity 9000 SoC.
ZTE has confirmed that the Axon 40 Ultra will be receiving a global launch. On track for next month, the Axon 40 Ultra has been shown to look an awful lot like the Galaxy S22 Ultra by a renowned leaker.
Samsung has assembled its top smartphones under the Galaxy S series. The most affordable entry into the series is currently the Galaxy S22. Compared to its strong predecessor, the Galaxy S21, it scores with several improvements, including a particularly bright AMOLED display.
Counterpoint Research has now released a report providing insight into global 5G Android smartphone sales in February. Samsung utterly dominates with five entries in the top ten, thanks to stellar Galaxy A52s, Galaxy S22 Ultra, and Galaxy S21 FE sales.
According to a new report coming from Korea, Samsung may have cancelled the Galaxy S22 FE. Supposedly, the company is yet to take any development steps for the phone and it now looks to be cancelled in a manner similar to the Galaxy Note series'.
A new leak now reports that Samsung is set to equip the Galaxy Z Fold4 with the same 108 MP camera on the Galaxy S22 Ultra. This comes after reports earlier in the week touted the phone to also adopt the 3x zoom lens on the Galaxy S22 phones.
While Samsung's new top smartphone is a tour de force in our test, it also shows some weaknesses. Find out here where exactly the problems lie and why this probably won't really be such a big deal.
Samsung has done its best to promote sales of the new Galaxy S22 series with a mix of tasty pre-order incentives and an excellent trade-in program. Those efforts look to be bearing fruit, too, as a new report touts the Galaxy S22 series as Samsung's best-selling flagship lineup yet, with the Galaxy S22 Ultra leading the charge.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 series launched on February 9, 2022 to both cheers and groans. As usual, there are some iterative upgrades and there are some more drastic changes. Let's have a look at some of the more unexpected and controversial changes Samsung made upgrading from the Galaxy S21 series to the S22 lineup.
Samsung is no stranger to broken promises, half truths, and retracted statements. Just ask foldable fans who wanted eSIM or Galaxy Buds Plus users who were looking forward to Multichannel Audio. The list could go on. Let’s take a look at where Samsung went wrong with its latest flagships.
Samsung has already changed its specification sheets for the Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22+, two of its latest flagship smartphones. Unfortunately, the pair do not support a 10-120 Hz variable refresh rate as Samsung advertises.
Ahead of Unpacked, Samsung's press release for the Galaxy Tab S8 series has leaked, revealing the company's plans to deliver four major OS updates to its current flagship phones, with five years of support in total. The Galaxy Z Flip3 and Galaxy Z Fold3 will, for example, receive Android 15.
A 120 Hz display might sound great at first, but the fact that it can only be run with 60 Hz most of the time raises questions. Not only are there limitations regarding the resolution, it also failed while gaming.
Samsung is reportedly working with legendary camera manufacturer Olympus to develop camera hardware for its upcoming devices. We could see it in action alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 3 this year or on the Galaxy S22 Ultra in 2022.
According to a UK retailer, Samsung is preparing to release over 70 accessories for the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22 Plus and the Galaxy S22 Note. A deep green colourway should be heading to the Galaxy S22 Note too, based on an official S Pen render image.
According to reports, Samsung is developing even thinner display bezels for future smartphones and tablets. Reputedly, Samsung's BRS technology will debut on the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, before making its way into future Galaxy smartphones towards the end of next year.
The most recent leak concerning Samsung's next early-year flagship smartphone have painted a sobering picture for its camera upgrades relative to the existing S21 Ultra. However, the eminent leaker Ice Universe's latest word on this subject might turn these rumors on their head completely, putting some of the most cutting-edge upgrades back on the table for the putative 2022 device.
According to reports, Samsung is set to debut the ISOCELL GN5 in the Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22 Plus. The pair will also receive an upgraded telephoto camera compared to the Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S21 Plus, but it is not camera upgrades all round for Samsung's next flagship smartphones.
