The device scored 9570 points on the multi-core test and 4382 pointson the single-core test. These numbers are, somehow, much higher than the recent benchmark of Galaxy S10+, which scored consecutively 1571 and 1134 points less. Strange, seeing how both devices run on Exynos 9820 CPU and 6 gigabytes of RAM. This test has been commenced before putting the final version of the software into the device, though – end results will certainly be much better.Samsung Galaxy S10 will be officially announced during Samsung’s special event on February 20th.

Galaxy S10 X, the anniversary edition of Samsung’s upcoming device, will be a real beast of a smartphone. 6.7′ display, 6x main camera, 10GB RAM and 5000mAh battery are only some parts of its very respectable specification. The most important of them will probably be the 5G connectivity support, something that is a complete novely in the mobile world. All of this will not be cheap, naturally: Galaxy S10 Lite will cost around 850 thousand won (roughly 756 USD), while the Galaxy S10 X variant might be as pricey as 1.7 million won (1513 USD). Pricey. Will it be worth the cost? You ...

As is usually the case with Samsung smartphones, Galaxy S10 has leaked hard over the last month. Perhaps understanding that there is nothing left to hide, Samsung has supposedly decided to reveal the device early. According to an anonymous source working for the Korean Herald newssite, Samsung will hold an Unpacked event in San Francisco a whole week before the start of MWC 2019, which will begin on February 25th. Exact date of Unpacked is unknown but can be presumed to be February 18th. Rumour is that earlier reveal date has been chosen so as to not coincide with the potentially outshining ...

The electronics conference CES 2019 is currently taking place. In it, Apple has announced that its iTunes Movies & TV Shows application will soon be supported by Samsung televisors. Thanks to this people will have access to their iTunes library, as well as iTunes Store, without neccessarily having to use an Apple device. This is a huge change in Apple’s direction; it is very rare for Big A’s apps to work on non-Apple devices. This probably has something to do with the company currently working on its own shows and movies; Apple probably believes that the money made out of ...

Samsung’s Galaxy S Lite line has always had relatively small batteries, and the company is seemingly keeping to that course, despite the users’ protests. As revealed by the certification of the SM-G970 model, which most probably is the Galaxy S10 Lite, the device will sport a somewhat humble 3100mAh accumulator. In the era of 4 and 5 thousand mAh batteries, 3100 is really not that much, even for a Lite phones.More specs will surely surface any day now. Tweet Vote on ...
