This is the first thing I set up after pairing my Samsung phone with a Galaxy Watch

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-10 08:00:26

Zac Kew-Denniss / Android Authority Samsung smartphones are crammed full of valuable features, from One UI’s readymade tools to Good Lock’s downloadable bounty. One example that I’ve taken full advantage of is Modes and Routines. First launched in 2022 as Bixby Routines, the feature allows users to create and initiate a series of settings based on conditions. This allows wide-ranging automatic control of one’s phone and, more importantly for Galaxy Watch users, their smartwatches. Suppose you

It exists near the upper limit predicted by our cosmological models, leaving astronomers with burning questions surrounding the relationship between black holes and their galaxy hosts.

Samsung bashes Chinese watches, says it’s already working on Galaxy Watch 9, 10

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-12 19:20:11

TL;DR Samsung recently compared its approach to smart wearables with Chinese fitness devices, claiming it focuses on “high quality.” It said that Chinese smartwatches offer seven to ten days of battery backup because they offer low-power components. Samsung, on the other hand, is focusing on accurate health measurement systems that are already being tested for the next two generations of the Galaxy Watch.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 The Galaxy Z Flip 7 is a good flip phone. It has Samsung's best-ever cover screen hardware, a larger and wider main display, and a surprisingly thin design. But with a disappointing choice in its chipset and truly annoying cover screen software, the Flip 7 isn't an amazing flip phone.

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-08-14 03:06:09

An international team of astronomers has identified the earliest black hole ever confirmed, an ancient behemoth that existed just 500 million years after the Big Bang. The discovery could offer new clues to a mysterious class of ancient galaxies that confounded prevailing theories of cosmology. In a new paper published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, the researchers describe CAPERS-LRD-z9—a distant, gas-enshrouded galaxy with a supermassive black hole at its center. It dates back some 13.
