The Latest on Samsung

Samsung's latest One UI 8 rollout has hit another snag, and this time it is the Galaxy S23 series caught in the crossfire. What started as a promising Android 16 update has turned into a stop, start, stop pattern across multiple Galaxy generations. The company has now completely yanked the firmware from its distribution servers, according to Android Central, making it inaccessible to users in European and Indian markets. Samsung is quiet on the reasons, but a wave of battery drain complaints on...

Samsung's Galaxy S26 lineup is shaping up to be the company's most dramatic flagship overhaul in years. What started as whispers about a potential "Pro" model has ballooned into a full rethink of how Samsung positions its premium phones. The most surprising twist? The rumored Galaxy S26 Pro might not be an addition to the lineup at all, but a replacement for the standard model we have come to expect.

Prime Day is wrapping up, but there’s still time to snag one of the year’s most compelling smartphone deals. Amazon’s October Prime Big Deal Days event launched on October 7th, bringing significant discounts to Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S25 lineup (Mashable). Several Samsung Galaxy models even hit their lowest prices of the year during this window (Mashable). Unlocked versions are the sweet spot, full carrier flexibility without plan strings attached (Mashable).

When Samsung announced its latest price cuts on the Galaxy S25 Ultra, it wasn't just another seasonal sale. It was a calculated strategic maneuver that sends ripples throughout the entire smartphone industry. With the iPhone 17 Pro Max hitting shelves at $1,199 and Samsung's flagship starting at $1,299, this move signals more than competitive pressure, it is Samsung doubling down on value while Apple leans into premium positioning.

Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S26 series is getting real buzz, and not just from spec-sheet chasers. The latest leaks point to the Samsung Galaxy S26 getting support for APV, Samsung's Advanced Professional Video codec, the kind of feature that can flip how we think about shooting on a phone. With APV supporting visually lossless recording and LOG profiles plus HDR metadata, pros get latitude and hobbyists get headroom. And because APV offers up to 20% better space than Apple ProRes (per early...

The smartphone market in 2025 is getting more interesting by the day, and Samsung's Galaxy A36 5G is making quite the splash, especially with one carrier offering it absolutely free. When I first heard about this deal, I was skeptical. Free phones usually come with significant compromises. Too good to be true? After digging into what the Galaxy A36 brings to the table, I changed my mind. This might actually be one of those rare deals worth your attention.

Samsung's latest leak drops a clear hint. While we're all waiting for the Galaxy Tab A11 and A11 Plus to hit the market, the Plus variant looks set to outmuscle its smaller sibling. The Galaxy Tab A11 and A11 Plus aren't available quite yet, but the leaked specs sketch a gap budget shoppers should know about. Both tablets have a display with a 90Hz refresh rate. After that, the roads diverge in ways you will feel day to day.

The rumors are swirling and the evidence keeps mounting, Samsung appears to be gearing up for what could be their most ambitious product launch yet. These are not incremental updates we are looking at. These are technologies that could redefine mobile computing paradigms for the next decade. Ready to see why September 29 might be worth circling on your calendar?

When you send a photo to a friend via WhatsApp on your Samsung phone, you probably don't think twice about the complex image processing happening behind the scenes. You hit send, the thumbnail pops up, end of story. Right? In August, Meta's security team discovered something far uglier hiding in that moment, that innocent image sharing was being weaponized by attackers to take complete control of Samsung devices. The vulnerability they uncovered, now patched by Samsung, shows how sophisticated...

Samsung's Galaxy XR headset is finally stepping out of the shadows, and this is way more than just another VR device announcement. After years under the Project Moohan codename, Samsung's answer to Apple's Vision Pro is taking shape with some serious credentials. The big hook is software and timing. The headset will use Google-made Android XR software and is tapped to arrive in October 2025, putting it squarely in the premium XR ring.

Samsung just dropped the Galaxy Tab S11 series at its latest Unpacked event, and while the new tablets bring some welcome refinements, they might not be the game-changing upgrade everyone hoped for. The Tab S11 and S11 Ultra add an improved S Pen and a slimmer, more compact design. Look closer and you may find there is not enough here to justify spending at least $800 just a year after buying a Tab S10. Here is why the Galaxy Tab S9 might actually be the smarter buy right now.

Samsung's One UI 8 beta program is making waves across the tech world, and for good reason. This isn't just another incremental update – we're looking at a significant shift in how Samsung approaches software rollouts that puts them closer to Google's accelerated Android release schedule than ever before.
