Galaxy S10+ will be used to film an entire episode of Jimmy Fallon’s The Tonight Show

The Samsung Galaxy S10+ will be used to film an entire episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, which is scheduled to air on March 25. And, aside from being shot on Samsung’s latest consumer handset, The Tonight Show has another treat in store: Fallon will be joined by no other than MMA legend Conor McGregor — and there’s a subtle hint the duo will be headed to an Irish pub.

Anyway, back to the task at hand. This isn’t the first time a smartphone has been used to film something on a professional level; Steven Soderbergh shot his Netflix movie High Flying Bird on an iPhone, and rival late night TV host Jimmy Kimmel recently used a Google Pixel 3 to film Eminem’s performance atop the Empire State Building. It’s a fantastic way to showcase their camera prowess.

Be sure to tune in on Monday March 25th for an entire show captured #withGalaxy S10+ in partnership with @SamsungMobileUS! Jimmy’s filming all over the city and might just go to a bar with @TheNotoriousMMA

The Tonight Show airs on NBC at 11:35 PM (ET/PT). Sadly, there aren’t a whole load of international broadcasters — it isn’t aired in the UK, for example — so those wanting to see the Galaxy S10+ in action, who don’t reside in the US or a neighbouring region where The Tonight Show is broadcast, will need to head over to the show’s YouTube Channel for the highlights on March 26.

Galaxy Fold won’t come with an Exynos CPU in Asia or Europe

A benchmark surfaced last week confirming that, like the North American model, the International variant of the Galaxy Fold wouldn’t bundle a Samsung-made Exynos CPU, and now we have even more evidence supporting that claim in the form of a reference to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 — the CPU on the North American version of the Galaxy S10 — in the handset’s firmware.

The folks at XDA-Developers conducted a thorough analysis of the combination firmware for the International model of the Galaxy Fold (SM-F900F) and uncovered a reference to SM8150 — the internal model name for the Snapdragon 855. Intrigued by the discovery, they then attempted to track down a slither of code pertaining to the Exynos 9820 but were unable to do so.

This claim is further corroborated by a revelation we made back in January, when we learned that the Galaxy Fold will be available in two core models: one with LTE and one with 5G. To be clear, though, the information we received states that the 5G model will hit the shelves in South Korea — there’s no word on whether it will launch elsewhere, like the United Kingdom and the United States.

It’s slower than the Galaxy S10+ on paper

In a recent benchmark test, the Galaxy Fold racked up a score of 3418 in the single- and 9703 in the multi-core test. The Snapdragon model of the Galaxy S10+, for comparison, came in with 4258 in the single- and 10,099 in the multi-core, meaning it’s a lot faster than the Fold — on paper, at least. But that could be because Samsung’s first foldable was running unoptimized pre-release firmware.
