androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-23 12:28:32

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A long-time leaker has claimed that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will retain the same 200MP main camera as its predecessors.

Galaxy S25 FE leak reveals new colors, bad news for RAM and storage

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-23 14:04:58

TL;DR The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 FE could have 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of internal storage. While these may be sufficient for most people right now, the specs aren’t very future-proof, especially given the pace of development of AI features. Samsung is expected to charge about $700 for the base variant of the Galaxy S25 FE, which makes these specs difficult to digest. Samsung is hard at work on its next launch, which is most likely the Galaxy S25 FE. We’ve seen several specs leak f

tsbro TypeScript for the Browser. No tooling, no build step, simply works. TypeScript is still second-class citizen with regards to browser adoption, there is a proposal to fix that, but until then we have to use tooling, bundlers, build steps that are an impediment for when you want to quickly create a short demo or PoC.
