Back when CAD-based renders appeared, the phone’s dimensions were mentioned. The best way to judge its size is for someone to hold it in the hand, though, of course.

That case will also serve as a way to holster the stylus....

Especially since there’s no IRL death tied to the other end if you happen to lose. The Squid Game-like React: Survival in PUBG Mobile will be available through Arcade mode To get to React: Survival, you’ll need to enter Arcade Mode, where the new match type can be found....

Both displays get plenty of upgrades Both the main display and the Cover Display on the Galaxy Z Flip 3 got plenty of upgrades this time around. Let’s start with the Cover Display. The Cover Display is now four-times larger, measuring in at 1.9-inches. Now regular math won’t point to it being four-times bigger since the original was 1.1-inches. But it actually is. This larger display means that you can do even more here....
According to the new report, strong demand for DRAM and NAND flash chips drove Samsung’s growth last year. It could be in for a similar performance this year thanks to sustained demand for its memory chips. The ongoing supply constraints and component shortages may persist throughout 2022 and affect shipments. However, an increased price could offset that. Despite the unprecedented issues that the semiconductor industry encountered in 2021, pretty much every vendor, including those that only make smartphone SoCs and GPUs, saw an increase in annual revenues in 2021....
Unfortunately, Huawei didn’t disclose the specifics of the agreement. It’s unclear what 5G technologies Samsung is obtaining from the company as part of this deal.

Samsung has had issues with its 5G smartphone modems. Users of the Google Pixel 6 series, which features a Samsung-made custom processor called Tensor, complained about poor network reception....

This redesign makes the external screen wider, with a 23.1:9 aspect ratio. The display specs largely remain unchanged but there’s plenty to talk about cameras.

The October SMR (Security Maintenance Release) for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 comes with firmware version F936BXXS1AVJ3, at least in Israel. Other countries in Asia, as well as Europe, Australia, Latin America, and Africa, should also get the new software package with the same build number.

This wouldn’t be the first time that Samsung has had an Unpacked event for its Galaxy A smartphones. It first did it last year, around this same time. As has been the case with the previous few Samsung events, this is going to be a streamed event, taking place on March 17, starting at 10AM ET. Not as many leaks and rumors surrounding upcoming Galaxy A smartphones It’s pretty clear that the Galaxy A isn’t as hyped or important to a lot of people as the Galaxy S series is....
