We have here some rather interesting situation (and I can’t say does Samsung knew about it).Consumer Reports tested water resistance of two Samsung Galaxy S7 Active which have an IP68 certificate (30 minutes on depth up to 150cm) and… boath didn’t pass the test.It’s more confusing with knowledge that normal S7 and S7 edge passed it with zero problems.Samsung responce was “We will teke a closer look at this problem” and “untill now we had only few such notifications.”Source: gsmmaniac (polish) via Consumer ...

Samsung announced his Galaxy J1 in new clothes and name J1 Ace Neo.

Olimpic Games in Rio are approaching so it’s time for special version of new Galaxy S7 Edge.Above this post you can see it, components are same as in normal version, only differences are coloristic, olimpic symbol, preinstalled rio 2016 app and some UI elements in olimpic theme.I must admit that it’s nice for eye but without samsung above screen and with pressed logo on back it would be even better.Athlets will recive their phone with a pair of Gear IconX wireless earbuds, but we all must wait until July 18 for limited run of 2016 pieces. It’ll be avable only in chosen ...

Those of you hwo read my text about Huawei V8 Max should know my look onphones with humongous screens – namely all have its borders. And you know what? As always someone mus amuse me.And this time it’s Samsungs designers, or probably maketers, naming 7-ich tablet (or more precisely phablet) a “phone” cause “why not?” Who tried to have a conversation on somethins so big without a headset know that it’s as far from comfors as possible.But few worlds about device itself: its name is Galaxy J Max, and it seams to be answer to Xiaomi Mi Max i Huawei V8 ...

Ok, so we found two different versions of Note 7 in benchmarks:First one is on AnTuTu with Qualcomm 820 (in final version we expect 823), 4GB RAM (an again – in final version we expect 6GB), 13 and 5 MP cameras, 2560x1440px screen and Android 6.0.1.Second one (from Geekbench) is more interesting with irs old Exynos 740, 3GB RAM and Android 7.0. Components may suggest that this is just platform for Nougat integration only.Summarizing: Note probably will be released with Android 7.0 or will have fast update. Version from AnTuTu can be tested in terms of efficiency – maybe will get ...
