Samsung Galaxy S Advance with AT&T 3G is at the FCC
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGALAXY S Advance
Samsung Galaxy S Advance, you know that Sammy smartphone that sits somewhere between the original Galaxy S and Galaxy S II, has been spotted at the FCC, where the government-employed engineers got to play with it before it’s potentially introduced to the U.S. market. We say “potentially,” since the fact that some device gets FCC’s seal of approval doesn’t necessarily mean it will be introduced by an U.S. carrier.

Samsung Galaxy Pocket: The cheapest Galaxy yet
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy Pocket
Samsung has just announced yet another Galaxy device, the Galaxy Pocket. It’s the exact opposite of the massive 5.3 inch Galaxy Note. With the Pocket you’re looking at a 2.8 inch screen that pushes the now ancient resolution of 320 x 240 pixels, it has a 2 megapixel fixed focus camera, runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread on a single core 800 MHz processor, and of course comes with all the associated radios (WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS) you’d expect from most modern smartphones. We don’t have an exact price for this thing, but we do know it’s going to come to the UK “later this year”. If we had to take a guess, we’d say it’s going to cost no more than 150 EUR. In fact, we’d go so far as to say it’ll cost j...

Samsung Galaxy S2 Ice Cream Sandwich update out next week
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsSamsungGoogleGalaxy S IIAndroid 4.0
Samsung Galaxy S2 owners will be getting their first taste of Ice Cream Sandwich on March the 15th, according to Samsung Israel. Yup, looks like that Android 4.0 update is coming right on cue.
Samsung may have been the first to get an Android 4.0 phone to market, but that was one of Google’s bleeding-edge Nexus phones. Regular Joe Galaxy owners knew they would have to wait for Sammy to tweak ICS and bolt on its TouchWiz UI ‘improvements’.

No Samsung Galaxy S III launch for April
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy S III
Samsung has denied reports that the launch for its much anticipated next flagship smartphone - the Samsung Galaxy S III - will take place in April.
Rumours had been circulating on the web after a report from ZDNet Korea touting an April arrival, but Samsung has taken to Twitter to debunk the claims.
Roughly translated, its tweet reads: "Please note, some reports regarding a press release for Galaxy S3 are not true. Once a specific launch date is decided we will notify you via Twitter first."

Samsung Galaxy S III allegedly confirmed for April launch
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy S III
Aside from the next-gen iPhone, the Samsung Galaxy S III is certainly the most anticipated device of this whole year. Samsung’s 2012 flagship has now allegedly been confirmed to launch as early as April, soon after its official announcement which is yet to come. ZDNet Korea reports about the launch date after it spoke with Cheil Worldwide, Samsung’s marketing and ad agency, which is preparing the device for the market in the UK.
Now, it looks like ZDNet refers to the official arrival of the Samsung Galaxy S III to shelves in April, at least in the first markets of availability. We’re not yet clear about when the device will arrive stateside, but we expect it to be later on in the year.

Samsung: "Honestly, We're Not Doing Very Well in the Tablet Market"
Like UnlikeFiled in: TabletsSamsung
Despite having a monstrously large range of tablets on offer, Samsung has never quite captured the market in the way it would like to. Its sales clearly lag well behind the iPad and the Kindle Fire—and it seems they're happy to admit it.

Samsung confirms Windows Phone 8 coming by year's end with elements of Windows 8
Like UnlikeFiled in: Operating SystemsSamsungMicrosoftWindows 8
Samsung can certainly be labeled as a company with much more invested in Android than Windows Phone, but the company has reiterated its resolve to support Microsoft's mobile OS and has confirmed some suspicions about the next big update to Windows Phone 8.
We have heard rumors for a while that Windows Phone 8 (codenamed Apollo) will be released in Q4 of this year, but Samsung confirmed that WP8 will be hitting by the end of the year. Samsung also said that WP8 will "increase the compatibility of the platform", which is somewhat vague, but we're hoping that means that we'll see an increase in supported hardware, possibly meaning higher-resolution screens, multi-core processors and maybe new ...

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 arriving exclusively on Verizon Wireless on March 1st
Like UnlikeFiled in: TabletsSamsungGalaxy Tab 7.7
Verizon Wireless has just announced that the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 will land exclusively on the carrier on March 1st. The Galaxy Tab 7.7 features a 7.7-inch Super AMOLED Plus display and runs on Android 3.2 Honeycomb. What might set you back though is the price - the Tab 7.7 costs $499 on a two-year contract. This means that you’ll be tied to paying a minimum of $30 for 2 gigs of untethered Verizon LTE data.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7’s screen comes with a neat resolution of 1280x800 pixels, which results in excellent picture density for its size. It also features a 1.4GHz dual-core processor, and two cameras: a 3.2-megapixel front one recording 720p video and a 2-megapixel one on the back.

Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsung
he Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 has just been officially confirmed and it’s as real as you imagined it - a 10.1-inch tablet with a dual-core processor and support for the S Pen.

The Galaxy Note 10.1 features Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich with the TouchWiz skin on top. It also comes with a number of tweaks for the Wacom-based S Pen - you can sketch in a dedicated app which is brought by a double tap on the screen while holding the pen button, you can annotate screenshots and you have Adobe Photoshop Touch and Adobe Id...

Samsung announces Galaxy Note 10.1 with Android 4.0, dual-core chipset and S Pen
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsSamsungGoogleAndroid 4.0
Samsung on Monday took the wraps off another new addition to its Android tablet lineup, the Galaxy Note 10.1. Like the supersized “phablet” it joins in the Galaxy Note family, the Note 10.1 includes Samsung’s S Pen stylus for drawing, note-taking, highlighting and much more. Sadly, this still isn’t the high-definition slate we’ve been waiting for so it looks like Samsung is shooting to launch its Retina-like tablet later this year. The 10-inch Galaxy Note runs Samsung’s TouchWiz UI atop Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and includes a 1.4GHz dual-core processor along with the same cameras found in the original Galaxy Tab 10.1. In fact, the Note 10.1 essentially seems like a redesigned Galaxy Ta...

Ladies and gents, introducing the Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 4.2 – the latest Android-powered portable media player to join the company's portfolio. Just like the rest of the gang, it delivers the versatility and software variety of the Android platform with cellular connectivity being the only thing omitted.
As its name suggests, the display on the Galaxy S WiFi 4.2 measures 4.2 inches in diagonal. It is of the IPS LCD kind and has a resolution of 480 by 800 pixels. The processor inside the device, namely a single-core chip clocked at 1GHz, may sound like something one would find under the hood of a last year's smartphone, but let's hope that it will go easy on the gizmo's 1,500 mAh battery.

Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsung
Samsung has expanded its Galaxy Note lineup to include a 10.1-inch tablet. The Note 10.1 integrates a 1280x800 display that appears to match the Galaxy Tab 10.1 panel, though the new model jumps from a 1GHz chip to a 1.4GHz dual-core processor to match the five-inch Note.
The Note 10.1 keeps the same two-megapixel front-facing camera as its smaller counterpart, however the larger tablet steps down from an eight-megapixel camera to a three-megapixel shooter with autofocus and flash for the back panel.
