The Galaxy S26 Pro might kill the best Samsung phone for most people

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-17 09:30:34

Zac Kew-Denniss / Android Authority We’ve heard that Apple is planning to shake up its iPhone lineup this year by dropping the Plus model in favor of a thinner iPhone Air — going from the least-hyped iPhone to what’s sure to be an attention grabber. Samsung, too, introduced the Galaxy S25 Edge to show off a slimmer design on the Android side. But the rest of the S25 lineup? Boring with a capital B. There weren’t enough changes to justify it as a worthwhile early upgrade over the Galaxy S24 ser

Ryan Haines / Android Authority Galaxy S24 FE TL;DR New renders of the Galaxy S25 FE have leaked. The names of the colorways could be Absolute Black, Midnight Blue, Light Blue, and White. The launch date will reportedly be September 5, 2025. Samsung will be hosting a press conference next month during Europe’s largest consumer electronics trade show, IFA. While the focus is expected to be mostly on AI, it’s possible the company could also use the moment to announce its next Android phone, th

The Galaxy S25 series might be more popular than all other Snapdragon 8 Elite phones combined

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR The Galaxy S25 reportedly sold more units than any other brand’s flagship. The Galaxy S25 series is also claimed to have outsold all other Snapdragon 8 Elite phones combined. The leaker, who shared these statistics, says this makes the regular variant of the Snapdragon 8 Elite appear to be a “minority.” Samsung’s efforts with the Galaxy S25’s subtle redesign and extensive focus on AI features appear to have paid off.

7 things the Galaxy S26 Pro needs to be my next Android phone

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-25 17:00:48

Ryan Haines / Android Authority Samsung’s phone lineup hasn’t changed much since 2020, when the Galaxy S20 series set the precedent of a base, Plus, and Ultra model every year. There have been some additions, such as the more budget-friendly FE variants or this year’s thinner Galaxy S25 Edge, but by and large, the formula has been the same for the last five years. That could change in 2026, as Samsung may pivot to a Galaxy S26 Pro, Edge, and Ultra. If that is the case, the phone I’d be most in

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A listing for the Galaxy S25 FE recently appeared on a British retailer’s website. The listing included technical specifications and official images. It appears the Galaxy S25 FE will have an Exynos 2400e chip. It won’t be much longer before Samsung releases the Galaxy S25 FE.

Review: The Sandman S2 is a classic tragedy, beautifully told

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-11-29 12:54:39

I unequivocally loved the first season of The Sandman, the Netflix adaptation of Neil Gaiman's influential graphic novel series (of which I am longtime fan). I thought it captured the surreal, dream-like feel and tone of its source material, striking a perfect balance between the anthology approach of the graphic novels and grounding the narrative by focusing on the arc of its central figure: Morpheus, lord of the Dreaming. It's been a long wait for the second and final season, but S2 retains al

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A Twitter leaker has posted purported Galaxy S25 series sales data, including figures for the S25 Edge. The figures suggest that the Galaxy S25 Edge sold 650,000 units during its first month of sales. The numbers also point to significant growth for the Galaxy S25 series compared to the S24 series.

David Imel / Android Authority TL;DR The Galaxy S20 Ultra has received a security update, a few months after Samsung officially pulled support for the device. This update only applies to the Verizon model for now, though. Samsung’s 2020 flagship launched with the promise of four major OS upgrades and five years of security updates.

Galaxy S26 Edge leak reveals just how thin Samsung’s next Edge could be

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A leaker has claimed that the Samsung Galaxy S26 Edge will be 5.5mm thin. This means it could be as thick as the rumored iPhone 17 Air and slightly thinner than the Galaxy S25 Edge. The leaker also reiterated that the phone could have a 4,200mAh battery. Numerous leaks suggest that Samsung will replace the Galaxy S26 Plus with the Galaxy S26 Edge.

TL;DR A new leak suggests the Galaxy S26 Edge will have a 4,400mAh battery. That’s noticeably up from 3,900mAh in the S25 Edge and slightly more than a previous 4,200mAh claim. Both leaks point to Samsung addressing one of the biggest complaints about the S25 Edge. The Galaxy S25 Edge was one of Samsung’s most criticized flagships of recent years, and much of that frustration rightly centered on battery life.

Galaxy S26 Ultra charging time leak leaves us with more questions than answers

That isn’t really an upgrade over the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s charging time. It’s still possible that the S26 Ultra could beat the S25 Ultra when it comes to total charging time.

As a proponent of fast charging convenience, the report that Samsung will increase the power of next year’s Galaxy S26 Ultra to 60W is music to my ears. The current 45W power level is already in a sweet spot, taking just under an hour to fully charge the phone. Still, that extra boost will undoubtedly come in handy when you need to bring the phone back from the brink quickly. More juice in fewer minutes is always welcome when you’re in a hurry.

However, GSMA listings for the base Galaxy S26 contradicted this finding. Previously listed as “Galaxy S26,” updated GSMA listings were spotted for SM-S942, which now list the same model number as the “Galaxy S26 Pro.” This corroborates our previous finding and suggests that the Galaxy
