The Galaxy S25 FE is here, but I’d rather get the Pixel 9a

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-09 14:34:38

The Galaxy S25 FE has arrived, and there’s a lot to like about it. You get a powerful chipset, premium features like an IP rating and wireless charging, a promised seven years of software support, and a lot more for a starting price of $650. It’s a phone I’ll often recommend over the next 12 months because the FE series strikes an excellent balance between performance and price. However, it faces stiff competition from the Pixel 9a, Google’s mid-range phone, which — at least for me — is a better

Type checking is a symptom, not a solution

news.ycombinator.com Paul Tarvydas 2025-10-10 10:56:19

What if the programming industry’s decades-long obsession with type checking is solving the wrong problem entirely?

The software industry has convinced itself that type checking is not just useful, but essential. We’ve built entire programming languages around the premise that catching

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung only accounted for third place in foldable phone shipments in Q2 2025, according to Counterpoint Research. HUAWEI was in first place, while Motorola was the runner-up. This report doesn’t take Samsung’s latest foldables into account, as they launched in Q3.

Galaxy Z Fold 7 is enough of a hit that Samsung is cranking up production

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has raised September Galaxy Z Fold 7 production to 260,000 units, up 60,000 from earlier plans. August Fold 7 output hit 430,000 units, well above the 170,000 initially targeted, while Flip 7 production fell short. Shipments could exceed Samsung’s 2.4 million-unit goal for 2025.

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-11 19:00:20

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority While many of us still upgrade smartphones every 2–4 years on average, tablets tend to have a much longer shelf life. They’re typically used less often and for narrower purposes like video consumption or light productivity. With the arrival of the Galaxy Tab S11 and Tab S11 Ultra, you might be wondering whether now is finally the right time to replace your aging Galaxy tablet. The answer here isn’t so cut and dry.

Samsung arrived at Berlin's IFA event with not one, not two but three different AIs to talk about in its AI Home: Future Living, Now exhibit.
