Until now, we have not heard of any other variants of Galaxy S8 Active. This one, spotted in Wi-Fi Alliance’s database, holds a model number SM-G892U. The device may turn out to be an US-only release. Its specification is pretty much the same as that of the original Galaxy S8 Active. The only difference are a 4000mAh battery instead of a 3000mAh and a military-grade polycarbonate body instead of the original’s glass frame. Tweet Vote on HN ...

Images were published online by famous Roland Quandt, leakster extraordinaire himself. Along with the images, Quandt stated that two Galaxy Tab A2 S models are in the works, bearing model numbers SM-T380 and SM-T385. SM-T380 is said to be a Wi-Fi only device, while SM-T385 will enable 4G LTE connection and accept a Nano SIM card. Its price is said to oscilate around $300, while the former will cost around $210. With that being said, what can we expect from the A2 S?– Kids Mode app and a few other features directed at children,– 8′ display, 1200 x 800p resolution,– ...

The story is mostly a simple one. Last July, a young lady from South Korea bought herself a Samsung Galaxy S7. Until now, the phone is said to have worked perfectly well, no problems. A week or so ago it happened so that she needed to charger her phone. After plugging it into the charger, it turned out that she needed to use it – maybe someone called her, or she needed to write an important SMS. She turned the phone on and that is when it erupted into flames. Thankfully, that did not start a large fire.That would be the end of the story if not for Samsung’s odd behaviour. After ...

Few months after a Galaxy Note 7 fiasco, Samsung decided to make a bold move. Instead of throwing Galaxy Note 7 away and acting like it never happened, the company embraced its failure and set out to salvage what it could, refurbishing the phone with a new battery and then offering it for a significantly lowered price. The best part? It paid out. Four hundred thousand units of Galaxy Note 7 Fan Edition (because only a true fan would decide to buy it after all that happened) were sold in South Korea alone. While there is stil no word on the phone being available outside SK, it is not out of ...

Galaxy Note 8’s official release date is September 15th, but according to Verizon, first Note 8’s should hit the stocks and depots on September 5th, tomorrow. These very first units are the ones that will be sent to those who pre-ordered Galaxy Note 8, and will (or at least are supposed to) reach their hands right after the device’s release on the 15th. Fedex shipping company will be the one completing Galaxy Note 8 deliveries, so blame them if something goes awry.According to rumours here and there, Verizon and Sprint customers may receive their ”Eights” ...

The first Samsung phone that features dual camera will be the Galaxy Note 8 flagship, so this is something of a big deal. Still, it would be nice to know the rest of the phone’s specifications as well:– 5.5′, 1080p Super AMOLED display, 2.5D glass,– metal & glass design,– MediaTek Helio P20 CPU, 8-core,– 13mpx & 5mpx main camera, apertures f/1.7 & f/1.9; 16mpx front camera,– 4GB RAM, 32GB ROM, microSD,– 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, dual-SIM card slot, GPS, USB Type C,– fingerprint sensor, face detection, Bixby Home, Dual ...

Support page for one SM-C7100 has recently appeared on Samsung’s Chinese website. This phone, which will be called Galaxy C8 after its reveal, will be the first Samsung smartphone with dual camera. How do we know? Because of leaked promo materials, ones that you can see above. One of the pictures presents a dual camera setup; the other shows off C8’s fingerprint sensor (I used to call it a scanner, as it scans fingerprints, not senses them, but everyone else calls them sensors, so what do I know…).Earlier leaks suggest that the phone will have a 5.5′ Full HD Super ...

Earlier today I wrote about Apple presumably planning to release two large-screen iPhones during 2018. Well, it looks like Samsung got the memo as well. Apparently, the company speeded up the distribution of OLED panels neccessary for Galaxy S9 series to be shipped November, two months earlier than planned. This suggests that the S9 may be released before the old April-March deadline. January is the date of release deduced by an unknown source of this news.While it is not 100% certain that the goal of this is for Samsung to beat Apple to the punch, it is highly probable that it is so. All ...

Please keep in mind that the below information neither comes from a completely reliable source, nor speaks of a fully developed product, as the phone is still in development. With that in mind, here is the list of features that we heard Galaxy S9 and S9+ may possess:– phone will carry an internal designation SM-G960. While it seemingly does not matter, knowing the device’s internal name can help pinpoint it among any leaked sources,– Android 8.0 Oreo OS with the newest Samsung Experience UI,– fingerprint scanner placed in a centered rectangular cutout,– ...
