Now that AI has become a mainstay in the tech world, it is safe to say that more and more companies are going ahead and implementing their own version. Samsung really did a great job with the Exynos 2400 and implemented a bunch of AI-related features with Galaxy AI. However, it is evident that the company is not done, as a new tip has surfaced suggesting how the Exynos 2500 could use Google's TPU for AI acceleration. If that happens, we are in for a treat because there are going to be several AI enhancements in the Galaxy S25 devices […]

With the release of the Galaxy S24, Samsung also introduced Super HDR. This was Samsung's way of making sure that certain pictures deliver vivid and variable brightness on flagship displays, and while a lot of people were thinking that this would be available on older devices, the South Korean tech giant has now said that it will not be coming to older Samsung devices. Samsung's magical Super HDR is not going to be available on older devices as only Galaxy S24's chipset is capable of supporting the technology For those who don't know, Super HDR is based on Google's Ultra […]

The design is more or less as accurate as it can be. […]
It appears that the Oppo Find X7 series is not the only device in the market getting the latest 5.5G network upgrade.

The 5.5G network is slowly but surely expanding, and I cannot wait for international coverage […]
