Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

There is no denying that the Galaxy S24 Ultra is one of the best phones that you can buy right now. The phone is packed with features that will let you use it for days before you get tired of it, and not just that, but the hardware on that is definitely something that you are going to want to keep coming back to.

The Galaxy S24 […]
Samsung will be unveiling the Galaxy Z Fold 6 series in less than two months, and so far, we have heard some really interesting details about the upcoming foldable flagship. There have been rumors in the past about how Samsung is going to change the overall design language of the foldable, and now, this has been confirmed by Thinborne, a famous case maker that is known for making thin and light cases for phones. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 could end up looking like the Galaxy S24 Ultra and that's not a bad thing The rumors that we have heard in […]
Tablet sales in 2023 reached 33.4 million units, with Apple commanding worldwide shipments with an iron fist thanks to its unrivaled 42 percent market share. Last year, Huawei had a paltry 5 percent market share, signaling that the Chinese manufacturer was nowhere close to threatening its rivals Samsung and Apple. However, with Canalys’ Q1 2024 estimates, we have learned that Huawei experienced a 70 percent tablet sales growth during this quarter, eating into Apple’s market share but surprisingly leaving Samsung relatively unharmed. Huawei’s market share reached 8 percent, with an estimated 2.7 million tablet shipments In the Q1 2024 period, […]
The Galaxy S24 lineup was introduced with Samsung’s first AI-powered software suite called Galaxy AI. Given that the new models accounted for 53 percent of the Korean giant’s Q1 2024 operating profit, many would conclude that these features would be one reason for their popularity. Unfortunately, based on a separate rumor, the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra will disappoint in the battery department, as it sticks with the same 5,000mAh battery as previous-generation models. However, Samsung intends to raise that backup by up to 10 percent with something called ‘Battery AI.’ Rumor claims that ‘Battery AI’ could eliminate the non-essential tasks running […]
The Exynos 2400 was introduced a few months ago and powered various Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Plus versions. Bucking the trend where past Exynos chipset releases would underperform and lose performance due to thermal throttling, this version surprised us as it kept pace with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, Dimensity 9300, and the A17 Pro, though it fell short in some areas. Now, Samsung is rumored to go down a path similar to Qualcomm, where it will introduce the Exynos 2400+ for the Galaxy S24 FE later in the year. One tipster claims that the upcoming SoC will deliver […]
It has only been a little over two weeks since Samsung announced that it is bringing One UI 6.1 along with the best Galaxy AI features to the Galaxy S22 devices and other phones at the same time, and it appears that the rollout has finally started, at least in South Korea where users are now receiving the update on their devices, and it is safe to say that shortly after this, the update will be available in several regions. Galaxy S22 users can finally enjoy One UI 6.1 with AI goodness The information was shared by users on the […]
Samsung shared highly positive news during its Q1 2024 earnings, with the company generating an operating profit of $4.80 billion, which is an inconceivable 933 percent increase compared to its Q1 2023 results. While the Korean giant witnessed growth in nearly all business segments, its smartphone division made up the bulk of that profit, with the Galaxy S24 series likely the major contributor to this figure. Adopting a dual-chipset approach and introducing Galaxy AI to the Galaxy S24 series were possible reasons for increased sales With $4.80 billion in operating profit, Samsung’s financials revealed that its smartphone business brought in $2.54 […]
The gate-all-around technology will reportedly be applied to Samsung’s 2nm chips, as the Korean’s foundry division aims to commence mass production of this node sometime in 2025. Industry sources have stated that the company will present a paper on the third-generation GAA characteristics applied in the 2nm (SF2) process at the ‘VLSI Symposium 2024,’ which is a global semiconductor conference that is scheduled to be held in Hawaii from June 16-20. Samsung has yet to strike gold with its 3nm GAA node, largely thanks to poor yields that make a partnership for other companies unviable The Korean giant announced its […]
Samsung seems to be riding the financial high as the company has talked about some really good news during its earnings call earlier today. Aside from talking about how the future is looking brighter for the company, the South Korean firm also talked about its upcoming Galaxy Ring, as well as expanding the Galaxy Watch lineup with more premium variants. A premium Galaxy Watch is certainly what is needed from Samsung at this stage Now, it is worth noting that this is not the first time we have heard about a more premium Galaxy Watch. There have been multiple rumors […]
Samsung had mentioned in a preliminary statement that it expected its operating profit to increase by 931 percent in the next financial year compared to the previous one, as the Korean giant had confidence that it could put a stop to its losing streak. Sure enough, in the latest Q1 2024 report, the company posted a jaw-dropping 933 percent increase in operating profit compared to Q1 2023, with several business divisions showing incredible growth in just a 12-month period. Samsung’s Q1 2024 revenue was just 17 percent higher compared to Q1 2023; smartphone’s operating profit made up the majority of […]

First up, Samsung has started the mass production of its HBM3E "Shinebolt" memory, which will first ship in 8-Hi stacks this month & will be followed by the […]
It has been a couple of days since I got my hands on the Galaxy S24 Ultra, and the device is one of the best I have used. It is evident that Samsung has managed to outdo itself in almost every aspect and the best thing is that the device feels so much more premium than before. My only subjective gripe is that the Titanium Black is not the darkest shade of black, but that aside, the phone is perfect. However, the phone has one thing that I cannot get over and that is just how inaccurate the fingerprint sensor […]
