Samsung Galaxy Folder 2 launched in South Korea

Galaxy Folder 2 itself is old news. Released ten months ago, Galaxy Folder 2 is one of Samsung’s flip phones – basically a mid-ranger with a physical keyboard (Snapdragon 425 CPU, 2GB RAM, 16GB storage, 3.8′ LCD screen, strangely small 1950mAh battery et cetera, all of that for 260 dollars). The only reason I am writing this is that, for those ten months, Samsung’s flip phone was a China-only exclusive. Releasing the device is South Korea means that maybe, just maybe perhaps possibly it will eventually get released elsewhere as well.Would you like that, or do you not ...

First real render of Galaxy Note 8?

We have seen myriads of Note 8 renders, as well as some pictures of the device’s frame or body. One thing they all have in common is that they are – allegedly – true; no one has any proof of one of them being real. Today’s leak… well, frankly, it has only slightly more proof than its predecessors.This latest image has been posted on Twitter and Weibo (Chinese social website) by one Ice universe (hilarious cat avatar, by the way). What is his or her proof of being genuine? Using the word ”Great” which – again, allegedly – is ...
