Samsung Galaxy Y available now from Vodafone UK
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy Y
The latest product off Samsung's near-constant conveyor belt, the Galaxy Y, has been spotted loitering around Vodafone UK stores. The "youth"(translation: entry-level) smartphone arrives with a slightly better spec sheet than the Korean giant's cheapest Android phone, the Galaxy Mini, although you shouldn't expect a load of GS II-eque features. The petite handset includes a two megapixel camera, a three-inch touchscreen, an 832MHz CPU, and the typical wireless medley of Bluetooth, 801.11 b/g/n WiFi and GPS -- all packed into a 3.5 ounce shell running Google's Gingerbread OS. Sure, there's no 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus screen, but for just £10.50 per month, we may be willing to overlook it.

Samsung sells 30 million units of the Galaxy S and Galaxy S II
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy SGalaxy S II
Samsung’s Galaxy S and Galaxy S II have sold more than 30 million units since first launching at the 2010 Mobile World Congress. To put that into some perspective, that’s happened over a span of 20 months, so that’s an average of 1.5 million units sold every month. The original Samsung Galaxy S was incredibly controversial since it was one of the first devices on the market with a 4 inch screen. Back then that seen as absolutely gigantic. Still, it was a hell of screen to look at. Thanks to the Super AMOLED technology that Samsung used, the colors popped, the blacks were ultra black, and battery life was simply amazing. Just one year later the successor to the Galaxy S was announced, aptly c...

Samsung now wants to ban iPhone 4S sales in Australia and Japan
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungAppleiPhone 4s
The ongoing legal battle between Apple and Samsung gets another turn as Samsung now has filed motion for an injunction on Apple iPhone 4S sales in Japan and Australia. Earlier, the Korean company said that it will try to ban sales of the iPhone 4S in France and Italy just a day after its launch as the handset allegedly infringes on its patents.
"In light of these violations, Samsung believes the sale of such Apple devices should be banned," Samsung said in a statement.
At the same time, Apple on its part says it owns a “thicket of patents,” but would only agree licensing “lower level patents.” This basically means that Apple is not there for the money like Microsoft which has reportedly sign...

UK: Samsung Galaxy Ace Purple now available from O2
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungO2Galaxy Ace
If you’re looking for a “different” budget Android smartphone, maybe O2 UK has something for you. The Telefónica-owned operator is now offering the Samsung Galaxy Ace Purple, which as you can imagine is a version of the Galaxy Ace in purple. Not sure why the name change was needed, but hey – God knows what the marketing folks of today’s mobile operators are thinking. As far as I’m concerned it could be just an SEO trick to get people googling “galaxy” and “purple” to O2′s website.
Anyway, aside from the color change, there’s not a single difference under the hood. In other words, expect the same 800MHz processor, 5-megapixel camera, HSPA and Wi-Fi connectivity, GPS, Bluetooth and so on.

Samsung Galaxy W to be Exhibit II 4G on T-Mobile
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungT-MobileGALAXY W
The Samsung Galaxy W has surfaced and looks to be heading to T-Mobile as the Exhibit II 4G. The handset was first revealed back in August, when Samsung unveiled its new naming scheme for its smartphone product lines. The “S” series, as in the Galaxy S, represented its flagship line followed by R, W, M, and Y series in descending order, which marks the Samsung Galaxy W, or Exhibit II 4G, to be a mid-range device.
The Exhibit II 4G, whose name was revealed today by TmoNews, has also been codenamed Ancora in some markets and is expected to feature a 3.7-inch WVGA screen, a 1.4GHz single-core processor, a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera, and a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera. Those are pretty d...

Sure, we knew this day was coming, but now the wait is finally over. Now the main question for T-Mobile customers at the end of their contract is whether to pick up the Samsung Galaxy S II or HTC Amaze 4G. Both handsets are now on sale from the carrier, running $229 and $259, respectively (plus plan, post-rebate, naturally). Thankfully, we've got a full review of the 4.52-inch Galaxy S II magenta edition and a hands-on with the 4.3-inch Amaze 4G, which should help make the deciding a bit easier.

Upcoming Samsung Galaxy S II update comes with bigger icons, FOTA widget
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesSamsungGalaxy S II
Samsung will soon start pushing a new firmware update for its flagship Galaxy S II smartphone. As far as we know, it will be a small release, packing two noticeable changes – bigger icons (up to 30% bigger) and the System Update widget, from where users will be able to quickly see whether a new software version is available and promptly take action.
Aside from that, it’s kinda safe to assume there will be some other changes under the hood, though at the moment we can’t confirm this. Similarly, I guess some of the Samsung apps will get tweaks and the device should be faster after the update.
