So far, there is not much information available about these devices aside from the fact that the company is looking to make some improvements to the overall design so it can fall in line with the modern approach that the company is going for. However, recently, information has started pointing towards how the company is also working on a low-cost Fold 6, and now a codename supports the previous claims. The affordable Galaxy Z […]

The Xiaomi 14 series is one of the best smartphone series that has debuted recently, but sadly, the phone only debuted in China. Based on some recently dropped hints, that could change, as the company has started talking about how there is going to be something revolutionary coming soon.

The idea of smart rings used to sound strange to me, but when I realized that a smart ring is just like a smartwatch minus the ability to tell the time and a screen, I quickly found myself interested in this wearable.

Galaxy Ring could become the first wearable that I would be interested in Now, the Galaxy Ring was formally introduced during the […]
We recently reported that Galaxy AI, the artificial intelligence driving the Galaxy S24 series, could usher into the paid era after the end of 2025. At that time, I was not sure how most users were going to take it or whether Samsung would revert its decision or not, but more information has surfaced indicating Samsung's seriousness. There is still some silver lining that we are going to talk about. Samsung could start charging for Galaxy AI, but the whole process is still in the decision-making phase T.M. Roh, the mobile business head at Samsung, has dropped a hint that […]
Samsung phones have become a lot easier to repair over the past couple of years. This is primarily due to the fact that there is a backlash from consumers who prefer having an easier time fixing their own phones and the fact that most regulatory authorities are actually forcing companies to make the repairing process easier.

One of the highlights of the Galaxy S24 announcement was the new circle-to-search feature, which would allow you to simply draw up a circle around anything on the screen, and it would then use Google's AI magic to bring up all the relevant searches pertinent to that product.

The Pixel 8 users will soon be able to enjoy the circle-to-search feature as it is now rolling out in stages The circle-to-search […]
Although Samsung may have perfected the design of the Galaxy S series, it still has to do some work with the foldable phones. There is no denying that modern-day foldable phones look a lot better than the ones that we saw in the early years.

Based on some new renders that have appeared thanks to collaboration as well as Samsung's patent filing, we have a reason to believe that the company […]
