T-Mobile Galaxy Note press shot outed - July 11th release date

T-Mobile Galaxy Note press shot outed - July 11th release date

Posted on Jun 26, 2012 by MG1

If you’ve been wanting to get your hands on a Samsung Galaxy Note via T-Mobile, it looks like you don’t have much longer to wait. A press shot of a T-Mobile branded Galaxy Note has leaked out, and rumor has it that the popular tablet/phone hybrid will be making its way to Magenta shelves on July 11th.
At the beginning of the month, Samsung stated that the company has already moved over 7 million Galaxy Notes, which is impressive for a device of its kind. The Note is a large device, and we’re pretty sure Samsung didn’t think it was going to take off the way it did. Well, lucky for them, the Note is selling well and having it on another carrier in the US should boost the sales even more.

Ice Cream Sandwich update for AT&T's Samsung Galaxy S II delayed for technical reasons

Ice Cream Sandwich update for AT&T's Samsung Galaxy S II delayed for technical reasons

Posted on Jun 22, 2012 by MG1

Last night, it seems that word had slipped out that the Android 4.0 update was available for the AT&T version of the Samsung Galaxy S II via Kies. Unfortunately, it turned out that the update was available only for a limited time. For those unfamiliar with the process, Kies allows users to connect their Samsung-made device with a PC or Mac using a USB cable. One use of Kies is to install software updates such as Android 4.0 as an alternative to an OTA update.
So why was the Android 4.0 first made available and then apparently pulled? One AT&T customer decided to discuss the matter with an AT&T rep via a Live Chat. And during this chat, the rep said that the update has been delayed due to "Te...

Filed in: Samsung

Rumours of the existence of a Samsung-made Facebook competitor have been greatly exaggerated.
So says Samsung in a statement on its website, where it says the rumours is 'groundless'.
Likely keen to distance itself from the rumoured project's terrible codename 'Samsung Facebook', the statement points out that there's just no need for it.

New 'Apple-neutral'  Samsung Galaxy S III commercial airs

New 'Apple-neutral' Samsung Galaxy S III commercial airs

Posted on Jun 14, 2012 by MG1

Samsung and Apple have been going at it for seemingly an eternity. Both rip each other in the press, courtroom, and commercials – especially in Samsung’s case. The Korean based manufacturer is notorious for producing ads that take shots at Apple. This known fact tends to irk many technology fans, because the company should be spending its money and time illustrating to folks why its products are better.
This time around, Samsung has chosen a different path. The company’s Galaxy S III commercial focuses on its new tagline: “Designed for Humans.” Ironically, Apple finds this slogan in their words “Too narrow.”

C Spire joins the Samsung Galaxy S III craze, too

C Spire joins the Samsung Galaxy S III craze, too

Posted on Jun 13, 2012 by MG1

Aside from AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular and Verizon – regional carrier C Spire will also launch the hot-new Samsung Galaxy S III, offering it on its “personalized 4G LTE network,” which also happen to be the only such network in the States. Whatever…
Exact pricing and retail availability are still unknown and will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
C Spire will initially launch 4G LTE services in 20 Mississippi markets beginning in September, covering 2,700 square miles and a population of 1.2 million. In other words, that’s four out of every 10 consumers and businesses in Mississippi with wireless data speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G. The full list of cities that will get the co...

Judge says launch of Samsung Galaxy S III will proceed on June 21st

Judge says launch of Samsung Galaxy S III will proceed on June 21st

Posted on Jun 13, 2012 by MG1

Apple has tried hard to throw a wrench into the upcoming launch of the Samsung Galaxy S III in the States. Already proclaimed the fastest selling gadget of all time with 9 million units pre-sold not including the U.S. and Canada, the Cupertino based firm has had its top legal minds ready to toss in any motion at the eleventh hour, seeking to stop the release of the handset.
Instead, the plan just might have backfired as Judge Lucy Koh said late Monday that Apple's push to get an injunction on the Samsung Galaxy S III would overload her calendar especially since she is presiding over another Apple suit against other Samsung products. And Koh's decision has nothing to do with the merits of the...

Android 4.0.3 now available for T-Mobile Galaxy S II, get it while it's cold

Android 4.0.3 now available for T-Mobile Galaxy S II, get it while it's cold

Posted on Jun 12, 2012 by MG1

It may be late in the evening here in the States, but for T-Mobile users, your time in the sun has finally arrived -- Android 4.0.3 is now available via Samsung Kies for the Galaxy S II. According to the carrier, the update won't be made available via an OTA download, which means that if you don't have a PC, you'd best shake down a friend at this late hour -- or, at least give 'em a call in the morning. In addition to Ice Cream Sandwich, the update is said to bring WiFi calling improvements and enhancements to the voicemail system. It'd also be wise to ensure that your phone's software is up-to-date before you begin, as Android 2.3.6 is a prerequisite of the upgrade. Ready to dive in? Just h...

Dropbox confirms Galaxy S III on AT&T and Verizon won't include 50GB storage

Dropbox confirms Galaxy S III on AT&T and Verizon won't include 50GB storage

Posted on Jun 11, 2012 by MG1

If that extra Dropbox storage helped swing the Galaxy S III pendulum in your favor, and you're a customer of AT&T or Verizon, it's not good news. Droid Life reports that one such expectant customer was asking Dropbox, via its forums, where their storage was. The cloud-space provider informed them that not all carriers are offering the deal, with those two big hitters being among them. This is further confirmed elsewhere on its support pages (check the source). So, just as we thought operators were loosening their grip, it seems some old habits don't die so easily.
