[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Samsung introduced a whole galaxy of smart devices at its Unpacked event in Paris yesterday.

We were at the event in Paris and got the chance to handle both sets. Here are our first impressions.The cases have been redesigned and now come with a transparent top. Samsung made...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Bixby still exists. In other news, Samsung Mobile Division President TM Roh has confirmed that Bixby will be getting a generative AI infusion later this year. The Korean company's assistant will use its own large language models, so this won't be achieved through a partnership with Google or OpenAI, at least not initially.Roh also confirmed that Samsung will continue to allow multiple voice assistants on its devices, so presumably you will be able to have both the AI-ified Bixby as well as the Google Gemini replacement for the Google Assistant. Of course you can also download the ChatGPT...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] The iQOO Neo9S Pro+ has a pretty long name and it rightfully one-ups the Neo9S Pro by incorporating Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. It replaces the Dimensity 9300+ found in the non-Plus variant and is again configurable with up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage.The other notable change is the 5,500 mAh battery compared to the 5,160 mAh cell on the Pro. It still supports 120W charging but should offer some improved endurance. This device also gets a slightly larger 1/1.56” customized 50MP IMX921 main camera sensor with OIS.The rest of the specs are identical – a 6.78-inch LTPO...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Samsung's July Unpacked event dedicated almost as much time to smart wearables as it did to the company's Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 foldable. Granted, the Galaxy Ring got a lot of that attention, but it's still clear that Samsung is making a strong effort to push into fitness and health trackers.But despite the addition of two new products to the Galaxy Watch lineup, you'll be forgiven for feeling slightly underwhelmed. We covered the Galaxy Ring, which somewhat inexplicably costs more than the 40mm Galaxy Watch7. The Galaxy Watch Ultra is quite similar to the Apple Watch Ultra,...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] The Moto G Stylus (2024) is part of Motorola’s line of phones that have a stylus built-in, making them suitable for productivity and creativity. Unlike Samsung’s stylus-having phones, these are mid-rangers – this particular example starts at USD 400/CAD 500 – so we don’t expect ultimate performance. And yet the 2024 edition managed to impress.The phone has a flat 6.7” OLED display with FHD+ resolution (20:9), giving you a large canvas to draw and take notes on. It’s powered by a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1, which is hardly new, but it was the first in the 6-series to be fabbed on a 4nm node and...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Ah, summer... the best of all seasons. That is, if you live in an area that actually has it and have a soft spot for sand and sea - otherwise you may see things differently. But regardless of whether we enthusiastically storm towards the sea or get forcefully dragged down there by... external circumstances, it is time for the beach where most of our team calls home.We don't doubt you've experienced the ill effects of sunlight and the accompanying heat on your phone display's brightness and battery life, and we're no strangers to those either. Still, we had no numerical representation of...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Samsung refreshed its two foldable lines this week with new Z Fold and new Z Flip models. Currently, they are on pre-order and will go on open sale on July 24 (or a bit later in some markets). Check out our hands-on review for a closer look at both models. Are you considering getting one?Let’s consider the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 first. Samsung tweaked the aspect ratios of both the cover display (now 6.3”, 22.1:9) and the main display (now a 7.6” panel with a 10.5:9 aspect ratio). It’s a subtle change, but it does bring a noticeable improvement to usability.Samsung Galaxy Z...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Samsung’s new foldables are on pre-order now and will be released on July 19. Amazon has interesting bundles, for example, you can get the Galaxy Z Fold6 (256GB) paired with the Galaxy Watch Ultra for £2,160. Considering the phone’s usual price is £1,800, this gets you the flagship watch for £360 – and not its usual £600 price.Another interesting pairing is the Z Fold6 with the Galaxy Buds3 – somehow, this costs £1,763, which is less than the price of just the phone. If you prefer the Galaxy Buds3 Pro instead, that bundle is £1,817. ...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] This is the Realme GT 6T. It just arrived in our office and will be joining our review queue, but before that we figured we'll share a few quick impressions.We received only the phone without a retail package, so there won't be an unboxing. But from our first meeting with the phone in India revealed it ships in a black retail box with a case, a SIM tool, a cable, and a 120W GaN charger.In Europe, the phone was supposed to cost €550 after its introductory price of €400 expired. Odds are it will see discounts for the upcoming Amazon prime day as Realme is keen on building that...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] The 6,500mAh battery on the Red Magic 9S Pro is a hit with a lot of voters who took part in last week’s poll. This is a gaming phone, the exterior decoration leaves little doubt about that, but many think that this could make a solid all-around phone too.The main concerns were about the software. We’re not sure about the 9S, but for the Red Magic 9 Pro the company says “we do regular updates every 1-2 months for 2+ years with at least 1 Android OS update”. The RM phones are cheaper than your typical flagship, but even mid-rangers get better support than this (often much...

The new Buds3 Pro come with a new case design and a slew of new features, some of which AI-powered.Most importantly the earbuds themselves have also been redesigned. They feature stems that Samsung insists on calling "blades" - at least the sharp angles give some reason for that. They recognize various gestures, including swiping, making the whole operation more convenient. The blades light up, too with an LED strip running down on each one.The new shell accommodates 2-way speakers with...
