Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Note 4 yesterday in Berlin. The newest flagship has formally been confirmed but those who are itching to pick one up will have to wait for some time. Galaxy Note 4 won’t be hitting shelves until later this fall. One can find solace in the fact that Galaxy Note 4 home screen wallpaper has already been made available for download by SamMobile, and today we have the Galaxy Note 4 lock screen wallpaper for our readers.
Water-resistant and rugged mobile devices are all too common in the consumer world, but those qualities haven’t permeated devices in the enterprise market. Samsung is looking to change that with the Galaxy Tab Active, a tablet that comes with IP67 certification for water resistance and an anti-shock covering that can withstand a 1.2-meter drop. The tablet is aimed at those working in enterprise – for example, Samsung is touting the inbuilt NFC connectivity as a great tool for transportation and logistics managers, and the rugged nature of the device as an advantage for retail auto sales representatives.
Like the Galaxy Note tablets, the Galaxy Tab Active comes with a stylus that Samsung is calling the C-Pen, something the company thinks those who have to wear gloves in their field of work can use as an alternative to standard touch input. The display on the tablet is an 8-inch unit of WXGA (1280×800) pixels resolution, and apart from the solid build, the Galaxy Tab Active sports mostly mid-range specs, like a Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor, 1.5GB RAM, a 3.1-megapixel rear camera, 16GB of internal storage and a microSD slot, a 4,450 mAh battery touted for 8-10 hours of general usage, and Android 4.4 KitKat.
The Galaxy Tab Active will be available in both Wi-Fi and LTE variants sometime later this year, and will come with the C-Pen and a Protective Cover right in the box. Samsung is only offering the Titanium Green color option; pricing hasn’t been revealed, but we’re guessing it will cost around the same as Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 4 range of mid-range tablets.
One of the most anticipated Samsung events was held yesterday in Berlin. The Samsung Unpacked 2014 Episode 2 brought many new products including but not limited to the Galaxy Note 4 and Galaxy Note Edge. The folks at Samsung Tomorrow have compiled all of the highlights from yesterday’s event.
The main highlight of this event was undoubtedly the Note 4. It carries forward the design language of the Galaxy Note 3 with a premium metal frame, a soft textured back cover and 2.5D Glass for more durability.
The Galaxy Note Edge came as a bit of a surprise. It has a unique curved Edge screen which provides quick access to apps and functions used frequently, the screen can be activated separately.
On the wearable front Samsung showed off the Gear S and Gear Circle. The former has a 2-inch curved Super AMOLED display with 3G, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity features. Users can maximize the health experience with the Gear Circle.
Last but not the least, Samsung’s Gear VR headset was unveiled. With an ultra-wide field of view and super low latency head tracking, it brings a 360 degree viewing experience.
Samsung launched the Gear S, its fourth smartwatch in a year, at the Galaxy Note 4 UNPACKED event yesterday, and today, the company has released a new version of the Gear SDK for developers with support for the new smartwatch. The Gear S won’t go on sale for a few more weeks, but early access to the SDK should help developers get their apps ready in time for the watch’s market release. As any sensible person would tell you, Samsung’s plethora of smartwatches have little future without a good developer community to back it up, and the launch of the SDK should help Samsung see its app store for wearables grow beyond the 1,000 or so apps that it currently offers to users.
If you’re a developer, head over to the source link to grab the SDK.
