Same display but more cameras and better processor The Galaxy A04s features a 6.5-inch display with HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. The screen has a waterdrop notch housing a front-facing camera, all covered by Gorilla Glass 3. The bezels around the display are quite wide but that’s to be expected on budget devices. All this gives the phone an identical look to the Galaxy A04 from the front. But the two models still differ in numerous other areas....

As a reminder, the Galaxy A13 did leak in CAD-based renders a while back. Those renders showed us pretty much the same thing as these images. So, we know exactly what to expect out of this phone at this point. The Galaxy A13 design gets shown in seemingly official renders These images show us the device from almost all angles.

At least in terms of the user-facing changes....

The Galaxy A54 5G picks up the Bluetooth certification The Galaxy A54 5G popped up on the Bluetooth SIG website with the model number SM-A546V.

Samsung first announced Maintenace Mode in July this year. The company soon began beta-testing the feature for its flagship models. Some eligible devices picked it up with the Android 13-based One UI 5.0 update. Others are getting it now, including the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, and Galaxy S20 Ultra.

We already knew Samsung is struggling to keep up with the demand for the Galaxy S22 and the Galaxy Tab S8 devices. It halted pre-orders for the latter in the US just a few days after opening. The company is expecting some storage and color variants of the Galaxy S22 trio to remain out of stock for up to three months. That’s despite it ramping up productions by 20 percent....

Even though we hope to be on the other side of the Pandemic now, chatting is still more popular than ever, and that is unlikely to go away.

The latest update for the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and Galaxy S22 Ultra is now rolling out in over a dozen countries, SamMobile has confirmed. The OTA (over the air) rollout seems to be currently limited to regions where the devices get the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, such as India and the UAE. But it shouldn’t be long before the Exynos 2200-powered units get on the act too. The new firmware version for the Snapdragon variants is S908EXXU2AVE4....

The Galaxy S22 Ultra cameras get detailed by tipster So, recent rumors were claiming that the Galaxy S22 Ultra will feature a 108-megapixel and three 12-megapixel cameras on the back. Well, it seems like that information was wrong, at least according to the source. Ice Universe says that the phone will feature a 108-megapixel main camera, but that it will be backed by two 10-megapixel cameras, and one 12-megapixel unit. A 108-megapixel unit will be an “improved version” of ISOCELL HM3....

Of course, Samsung does this to help conserve battery, because a QHD+ display that runs at up to 120Hz, is definitely going to drain that battery. So this is just a heads up that you will want to switch that on, when you get your Galaxy S22 Ultra. It does, however also ship with Adaptive on instead of being stuck at 60Hz. Though that hasn’t been an issue since the Galaxy S20, where it was not an adaptive 120Hz panel....

The Galaxy S23 Ultra is tipped to keep the Galaxy S22 Ultra camera design Ice Universe is usually spot on with his information, so if he says this is a sure thing, well, we don’t have a reason to doubt him. As a reminder, the Galaxy S22 Ultra doesn’t have a camera island, as you can see below. Every single one of its camera sensors comes directly from the backplate. Therefore, each of them is a separate island, in a way, as they all protrude on the back....

The Galaxy S23 Ultra won’t include symmetrical bezels after all He said that the bezels that CAD renders suggested are not accurate. The Galaxy S23 Ultra will still have a “narrow forehead” and a “wide chin” like the Galaxy S22 Ultra.

As a reminder, the Galaxy S23 Ultra CAD-based renders did surface quite recently....

The Galaxy Z Flip 3 was the first Samsung smartphone to come in a Bespoke Edition. It allowed users to customize the device with unique color combinations for the back panels and the frame.

The Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Galaxy S21 Ultra both support the stylus pen. However, neither ship with the accessory out of the box. You have to buy it separately. The devices don’t even offer storage space for the S Pen within their body. So you needed a special case as well unless you’re okay with leaving the stylus pen at home while going out or carrying it in your pocket....

From battery life to additional features, the Garmin Fenix 7 series watches are among some of the most capable smartwatches you’ll find. Some of this boils down to more options for solar-powered variants this time around. But Garmin is also making strides by adding things like built-in flashlights and touchscreen displays. The Fenix 7 is not your typical smartwatch as it’s geared more towards those who keep a pretty active lifestyle....

The original tweet, embedded below, doesn’t go into much detail. Qualcomm is unsurprisingly said to be working hard to get the new chipset into production. And, given the advantages it is slated to bring over its predecessor, OEMs are purportedly prepping to put it in their next-gen flagships. The new chip, by the way, is expected to be around 15 percent more efficient than its predecessor. What’s the latest on Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and which phone will be the first to use it?...
