Galaxy S26 could be getting not one, but two battery upgrades

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-18 20:48:13

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung is reportedly exploring more advanced “battery protection circuits” for the Galaxy S26 series, along with the previously reported SUS CAN casing. These upgrades could leave room for Samsung to expand the batteries in capacity. However, these upgrades may still not be able to compensate for the lack of a more advanced silicon-carbon battery. Batteries on the latest Samsung Galaxy flagship phone have been a major reason for disappointment. With the

Apple Should Steal These Galaxy S25 Edge Features for a Thin iPhone

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-08-21 07:30:05

Tech companies are known for, shall we say, "borrowing" features from each other. Any time Apple or Samsung release a new phone or software update, you can be sure arguments over who did it first, or better, will ensue among hardcore fans. So, as Apple reportedly plans to debut a thinner version of the iPhone 17 this fall, it might look to competitors to see what resonates with consumers. And a few features on the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge are on my wishlist for the rumored iPhone 17 Air. Reports

Due to a Price Agreement with Samsung, Amazon Can’t Publicly Show the Huge Galaxy S25+ Discount

gizmodo.com Gizmodo Deals 2025-08-28 01:04:52

Amazon typically has deals with major brands such that they do not destroy the luxury brand image by offering massive discounts. That means technically, you can have a “hidden price” on the product page and you will only see the real discount if you add the product to your cart. This is exactly the situation with the Galaxy S25+, the clear best-seller among the S25 series. The Galaxy S25+ has come out earlier this year and is now at a record-low price, way below that on Samsung’s own website. C

Samsung could be ditching the S Pen as you know it — for a very good reason

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-28 10:18:03

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung’s already rumored to be adopting new, active S Pen tracking tech for the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Now a new report claims Samsung will use the same new system on the Galaxy S26 Ultra. While this would result in a thicker stylus, one side effect might be opening the door for Qi2 magnetic support. Modern smartphones may have the PDAs of yesteryear in their DNA, but over the past couple decades we’ve seen advancement after advancement take this hardware to

Kerry Wan/ZDNET At Amazon, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus is on sale for $800. Act fast, this is a limited-time deal. The "middle child" often gets a bad rap, but the new Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus, which sits right between the smaller S25 and more-capable S25 Ultra, flips the script.

Galaxy S26 Ultra, S26 Edge spotted: Is the ‘Plus’ model really going away?

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra and Galaxy S26 Edge have appeared in the IMEI database. The early listing of the Galaxy S26 Edge suggests a January launch for the phone. It also adds weight to rumors that Samsung may drop the Plus variant from next year’s flagship lineup.

How does a phone with a crazy external lens compare to the S23 Ultra’s zoom camera?

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-03 11:00:39

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority The vivo X200 Ultra is a great camera phone in its own right (if you’re willing to import it), in no small part due to its impressive 200MP 3.7x periscope camera. However, the company switches things up by offering an optional external lens for even better zoom. The X200 Ultra’s 2.35x telephoto converter lens effectively turns the phone’s 200MP periscope camera into an ~8.6x shooter. I thought it would be a good idea to compare this lens to the Galaxy S23 Ultr

In just a few weeks, Samsung is expected to announce its latest generation of foldable smartphones as it does every year. If past trends continue, we’ll likely see the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7 take center stage. And even as anticipation builds for those devices, the top-selling traditional flagship remains the Galaxy S25 Ultra which is also the most high-end Android phone available today.

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE leak points to thinner bezels

TL;DR A new leak may give us our first look at the Galaxy S25 FE. The device is said to feature a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Samsung may have upgraded the front camera to 12MP. In January, Samsung launched the Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Ultra. The company then followed that up with the launch of the Galaxy S25 Edge in May. Samsung could finish up the S25 series in the next few months by launching a Fan Edition, and we may have just gotten our first look at it.

You'll find features like the AI Select tool, Audio Eraser and deeper Gemini integration across all of Samsung's S25 devices, as well as a custom Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and 12GB RAM – making the smaller phone of the bunch still seem pretty mighty.

However, the court acknowledged that Samsung engaged in “deceptive labeling and advertising that was likely to mislead consumers.” Samsung throttled S22 phones out of the box back in 2022 and didn’t let users disable this functionality at first.

OnePlus 13R vs. Samsung Galaxy S24 FE: Which Cheaper Flagship Is Best?

The $600 OnePlus 13R and the $650 Samsung Galaxy S24 FE each have a similar mission: Provide a phone that includes all the essential features of more-expensive phones by scaling back on certain hardware and software features. Ideally, this approach should get you all the essential features of the more expensive OnePlus 13 and Samsung Galaxy S24 phones, and in-turn, scale back on features that are less noticeable or important. However, I do think OnePlus and Samsung take very different approache
