Galaxy S7 camera lens supposedly shatter out of blue

Is it just me, or are those stories made up? A ”larger number” of Samsung Galaxy S7 owners claim that their phones’ camera lens break with no apparent reason. The source says that earliest reports of random shattering come from as long ago as March (if so, then why are we hearing about this just now?), with the most recent one coming in yesterday. Samsung’s reply is that camera lens can only shatter upon impact. Reportedly, a law firm from Seattle is looking into the case.What do you think? If you ask me, there are so many reports of Samsung phones having serious ...

Stylus pen may be an accessory to a Galaxy S8 flagship

Samsung Galaxy S8 may be the first of the S series to have its own stylus pen. Usually it is the Note series that comes with one, but seeing how this year’s Note 7 had to leave in a, ehm, hurry, Samsung may be seeing this as a chance to meet the Note users’ demands. According to Weibo, source of the rumour, stylus will not be integrated into the body of the device. Sim-unlock.net is a system that offers unlocking sim locks of any phone model.

Samsung Galaxy A (2017) unveiled on January 5th

Samsung Malasyia, a south-east branch of the Samsung company, sent out invitations for a press event taking place on January 5th. Invitation features the same watery theme that the Galaxy A (2017) teaser had, which leads to believe that the device will be unfolded during the conference. As a reminder, Galaxy A5 (2017) will be equipped with a 5.2′, FHD display, an Exynos 7880 CPU (I am glad to see there are other smartphone CPU’s than Snapdragon around), 3GB of RAM and a 16mpx main camera. It may cost around $400, making it a mid-range device. Galaxy A7 will be similiar to its ...

Samsung plans to step up the ”discouragement from Note 7” program in South Korea

It is common knowledge that Samsung wants to forget – and make us forget, too – about the Note 7 fiasco A.S.A.P. The South Korean company has an ongoing exchange program for the Note 7 users, has released updates that limit the phone’s battery and, lately, made a deal with some of the mobile carriers around the world to cut the faulty phone line from the cellular network, rendering the phones useless.Samsung is dealing hard with the Note 7… but only abroad. In its home turn, South Korea, there is still a lot (around 15% of all the owners) of people who have not given ...

Beast Mode, activate!* Samsung Galaxy S8’s new feature

Galaxy S8 is rumoured to be a very powerful phone with possibly the strongest specs on the market. Having the best thing around will be cool, but what if someone wants to have a performance better than the best available? Samsung must have thought of that when they (allegedly – it is only a rumour) implemented “beast mode” into their upcoming flagship. All we know is that GalaxyClub has spotted Samsung applying to trademark the term, so it can actually mean anything. But I like to think that beast mode will be a total overdrive mode in which phone will enter a super-high ...

It’s alive! Samsung Galaxy Note 8 WILL come out in 2017 after all

Yep, you heard me. It seems that the PR nightmare of Galaxy Note 7 was not as nightmarish as many thought it to be. After the initial distrust, people are forgetting and/or forgiving Samsung, certainly thanks to the fair way the company treated its customers when the Note 7 fiasco hit the fan. To be on the safe side, Samsung is now taking the precaution of sourcing its batteries from a new supplier; reportedly, the company will bring in an OEM LG to produce its batteries.

Samsung Galaxy S6 catches fire on somebody’s nightstand. Yawn

Honestly, if it wasn’t expected of me, I wouldn’t write about phones blowing up anymore. A Reddit user with a fancy nickname ReturnThroughAether posted a picture of his Galaxy S6 all charred. According to his/her story, phone must have burned during the night, and quietly too, since it did not even wake “ReturnThroughAether” up. User reported that she/he talked to Samsung, but have not said if any kind of compensation will be issued. Prior to the incident, the phone worked perfectly fine.Sim-unlock.net is a system that offers unlocking sim locks of any phone model. ...

South Korean owners stick to the Note 7’s, so Samsung will delay disabling the device there

An anonymous source told the Korean Herald newspaper that “There will be strong opposition from consumers if Samsung disables the devices soon. The company may have to wait until the return rate reaches 95 percent,” Samsung’s hesitancy to kill the phone off on its home turf (like it did in New Zealand and will do in the US, among other countries) may be caused by the owner’s “zealotry” – around 15% of Note 7 owners still keep their phones instead of returning/exchanging them. I guess some people value a good, if dangerous, phone higher than their ...
