Samsung backs MPEG-5 EVC codec for efficient 4K, 8K video playback

Apart from the AV1 codec, Samsung will also support the newly-released MPEG-5 EVC video codec on its devices. The new video codec is designed to meet the business and technical needs of the media and consumer electronics industry. To improve the adoption of MPEG-5 in the industry, Samsung will work with Huawei and Qualcomm to promote it.

The MPEG-5 Essential Video Codec (EVC) delivers 4K, 8K, AR/VR, and HDR videos with greater compression and efficiency when compared to the previous-generation standards such as MPEG-4. The codec was officially released by the end of April 2020, and it is being touted as a great solution for delivering video streams over emerging data protocols and networks such as 5G.

The new codec consists of a royalty-free subset and individually switchable enhancements. Huawei, Qualcomm, and Samsung have reaffirmed that they will offer fair, non-discriminatory, and reasonable terms for their essential patent claims covering the new standard. The companies will announce their respective licensing terms for the MPEG-5 EVC standard by April 2022.

Over the next few years, we can expect the MPEG-5 video codec to be integrated into future smartphones, TVs, media players, home theatre systems, and tablets, among other devices.

Samsung 8K TVs support AV1 hardware decoding to play 8K YouTube videos

Samsung announced its new 8K QLED TV lineup earlier this year during CES 2020. They feature an Infinity Screen design, AI-powered 8K upscaling, Direct Full-Array local dimming, and AI-powered 3D audio. These 8K TVs are also the world’s first to feature Wi-Fi 6 connectivity and among the first to come with AV1 hardware decoding.

The AV1 codec is used by Google to decode and encode 8K videos on YouTube. This means that the latest 8K QLED TVs from Samsung can effortlessly play 8K videos on YouTube. AV1 is a royalty-free codec developed by AOMedia (Alliance for Open Media), a non-profit consortium. Apart from Samsung, Amazon, Apple, ARM, Cisco, Facebook, Google, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Mozilla, Netflix, Nvidia, and Tencent are also a part of the non-profit organization.

YouTube is the first video streaming platform to exclusively use the AV1 codec for 8K videos. Some TVs from LG also support the AV1 codec, and TCL said that it will start supporting the AV1 codec on its TVs later this year with the Android TV 10 software update. While there are multiple codecs that offer 8K video playback, AV1 seems to be the most important one as it is backed by almost all the popular consumer tech brands and video streaming services.

Samsung’s new 8K TVs are also the first ones to receive the 8KA (8K Association) certification. They also feature Quantum HDR 24x, HDR10+, adaptive brightness, ultra-wide viewing angles, and AMD FreeSync (for tear-free gaming). For a minimalistic setup, they come with a No Gap Wall Mount design and One Invisible Connection. Other features of these 8K TVs include AirPlay 2, Alexa, Bixby, Google Assistant, HomeKit, and SmartThings.

How the Sweeper Technology in the Galaxy Z Flip’s hinge keeps dirt out

One of the biggest challenges that Samsung faced with the Galaxy Z Flip was to design a hinge that could allow for features like Flex Mode while also being durable enough that normal exposure to dirt and grime won’t cause it to fail.

So the patented Hideaway Hinge was born. It’s made up of two groundbreaking innovations, the dual CAM mechanism that Samsung has already detailed before and the Sweeper Technology that it’s explaining more in detail today.

Samsung engineers took inspiration from vacuum cleaners

Keeping dust and dirt out is a major challenge for foldable devices because their designs require tiny gaps between the body and the hinge. When designing the Galaxy Z Flip’s hinge, Samsung engineers had to account for these gaps while also fulfilling three conditions: the hinge had to have enough elasticity to manage the shifts in gap size, be able to withstand 200,000 folds all while being slim to retain the device’s sleek form factor.

The team worked through dozens of failed prototypes as it tried to address this challenge. That’s when one of Samsung’s top engineers released that the way fibers are used inside vacuum cleaners is similar to what was needed for the Hideaway Hinge. The sweeper fibers are soft enough that they can cover the gaps while also remaining flexible even after long-term use.

This sweeper mechanism sits inside the gap between the hinge and the body. When the hinge folds and unfolds, the nylon fibers sweep through the gap in order to prevent small particles from getting under the display.

Samsung’s solution has worked. There haven’t really been any durability complaints related to the Galaxy Z Flip’s hinge so far. It has managed to increase the hinge’s durability while also making it more robust, as the Flex Mode is arguably one of the most useful features of the Galaxy Z Flip.

Exclusive: Galaxy Fold 2 to be available in these colors

Samsung fans are looking forward to the company’s next flagship launch of the year. It’s due to launch the successor of the Galaxy Fold, its first foldable smartphone. If rumors are accurate, it should be released alongside the Galaxy Note 20 in August this year.

Until that happens, information about the new device will continue to trickle in. The latest we hear about the device is that it’s going to be offered in these two colors. Of course, other colors may still be on offer in addition to these.

Galaxy Fold 2 will be offered in these colors as well

From what we hear, the Galaxy Fold 2, which is in development with the model number SM-F916, is going to be made available in Black and Brown colors. There may be other colors available for the device as well, including ones similar to what the Galaxy Fold is offered in.

We already expect that the Galaxy Fold 2 is going to have a lower starting price compared to its predecessor. As we exclusively revealed, the SM-F916 model of the device is going to be offered with 256GB of base storage. The $1,980 Galaxy Fold was only made available with 512GB of internal storage. Samsung will indeed offer 512GB storage for the SM-F916 as well, but the split will allow it to lower the entry cost for the device.

The Galaxy Fold 2 is expected to feature a larger cover display in addition to a 7.7-inch foldable display. There have been some rumors about variable refresh rate as well as S Pen support, but it’s too soon to be certain about any of that.

As far as the launch is concerned, Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Fold 2 alongside the Galaxy Note 20 in August this year. Given the ongoing pandemic, it’s unlikely that there’s going to be a major launch event, with the company likely opting for an online launch.

Rumor: Samsung might be developing a Galaxy Fold Lite for under $1,100

As reported earlier this year, the follow-up to the Galaxy Fold is likely to be codenamed Win2 or Winner2. A device codenamed Winner2 5G also appears to be in development, but the exact nature of these seemingly foldable phones remains unclear. However, according to a Twitter rumor that may or may not be correct, the Winner2 codename might correspond to a so-called Galaxy Fold Lite 4G instead of an actual Galaxy Fold 2.

Keep in mind that the following specifications are far from confirmed, so treat this bit of information for what it is.

A Samsung Galaxy foldable for just under $1,100

The so-called Galaxy Fold Lite 4G would aim to go on sale for $1,099, therefore the rumor claims that the device will be powered by a mix of different hardware components from 2018, 2019, and 2020. The display won’t benefit from UTG (Ultra Thin Glass), so it would be similar to the original Galaxy Fold’s in this regard.

The rumor doesn’t touch on expandable storage, but it suggests the Galaxy Fold Lite 4G will have 256GB of built-in memory. A Snapdragon 865 may or may not be part of the package.

Samsung would seemingly build this phone using aluminum and glass and equip it with a considerably smaller cover display compared to than of the Galaxy Fold. It would be more in line with the Galaxy Z Flip’s exterior display. Color options could include Mirror Black and Mirror Purple.

We are unable to confirm at this time whether this rumor is correct, but assuming that there’s some truth to it, would you be interested in this so-called Galaxy Fold Lite 4G? The $1,099 price does make it sound appealing. Let us know in the comment section.

[Poll] Are you a budget/mid-range Galaxy phone user? Tell us why

Samsung’s smartphone portfolio spans across the entire market spectrum, from the very low-end budget and mid-range segments to the ultra-premium market where devices like the Galaxy S20 Ultra, the Galaxy Z Flip, and the Galaxy Fold exist. In a perfect world, a high-end phone that has no match in terms of specs would be the only relevant choice for customers, but that’s not how the real world works, or at the very least, not for Samsung.

Recent market analysis reveals that Samsung’s best-selling smartphone in the USA in the first quarter of 2020 was not the Galaxy S20, the Galaxy Z Flip, or even the Galaxy Note 10. It turns out that a device from the exact opposite side of the price range – the Galaxy A10e – was the company’s best-seller, and it was followed by the Galaxy A20. Earlier this year, the Galaxy M30s was a smashing hit in India to the point where it improved the company’s market share in the region.

With that in mind, we would love to hear from our readers who own budget and mid-range Galaxy phones, so we’re bringing you a new poll. We’d like to know your reasons why you chose a smartphone from one of these categories over a flagship/premium device. Check the poll below and join us in the comment section.

Are you a budget/mid-range Galaxy phone user? Tell us why

• I'm always hunting for the best value for money in a product. Flagships don't always provide this
• I would buy a flagship but Samsung never delivered the perfect one for my needs. I'm still waiting
• If the camera and/or battery life is decent, the rest is just fluff
• I like to upgrade my phones every year/biyearly and doing so with flagships is too large of an investment
• I don't care too much about high-end performance. If messaging/social media apps work, it's enough for me
• My budget for buying new phones is limited. I'd rather spend the savings from not buying a flagship elsewhere
• I'm more carefree with my phones. I don't like thinking about the consequences of scratching or dropping an expensive device

Galaxy Note 20 base model to lack LTPO and 120Hz display

Samsung seemingly plans to draw a deeper divide between the Galaxy Note 20 base model and the Galaxy Note 20+ later this year. The LTPO backplane will be a highlight of the upcoming S Pen series, but a new leak indicates that Samsung will reserve this technology for the larger Galaxy Note 20+. The base model will use an LTPS backplane instead, and its display will reportedly lack 120Hz refresh rate capabilities.

Samsung had reportedly confirmed to Ross Young that the Galaxy Note 20+ will support 120Hz and it will boast an LTPO backplane. Effectively, this should lead to the best implementation of 120Hz, as LTPO allows for a variable refresh rate and contributes to up to 20% higher power efficiency. The Galaxy Note 20 base model, however, was ‘confirmed’ to lack this technology. It will use LTPS instead of LTPO, and while 120Hz is possible in conjunction with LTPS technology, Samsung will limit the phone’s screen to 60Hz to avoid a big hit on battery life.

According to another recent leak, the Galaxy Note 20 base model will also have a resolution of 2345 by 1084 while the Galaxy Note 20+ will boast a pixel count of 3096 by 1444. And if these two models will have different refresh rates, the divide between them will be even more noticeable. This may or may not in Samsung’s and the consumers’ favor.

Galaxy Note 20 / Note 20+ display specs divide: the good and the bad

The positive take on this latest leak regarding LTPO technology, or lack thereof, is that the Galaxy Note 20 base model should be less expensive, even though this would come at the cost of some features. It could lower the entry price barrier for S Pen enthusiasts, but then again, this is what the Galaxy Note 10 Lite was supposed to be doing in the first place.

On the not-so-positive side of things, we’re well aware that the majority of Galaxy Note owners want the best experience, so most of them won’t consider the Galaxy Note 20 base model to be an option. They will likely have to pay extra for the best-possible hardware, and Samsung is going to be very careful about how it will price the two Galaxy Note 20 models.

If priced right, both Galaxy Note 20 models will have their appeal for different reasons and the deeper spec divide between them could actually make sense in the proper context. However, if Samsung will push the premium price bar too high for the Galaxy Note 20+, it might end up disappointing a lot of prospective buyers and fans of the series. It will boil down to the launch prices of the two variants, and we’ll have to wait and see how the story develops further.

Note 20 Update – while the Note 20+ remains LTPO and 120Hz, the Note 20 will be LTPS and 60Hz. Makes sense since LTPO costs more and should appear first in premium models. You can do 120Hz with LTPS, but it consumes a lot of power. LTPO is the best implementation for 120Hz.

Samsung intros fashionable Galaxy Z Flip Thom Browne Edition to Japan

Samsung’s fashionable variant of its stylish foldable phone, the Galaxy Z Flip Thom Browne Edition, is going to be released in Japan by the end of the week. The product is already listed on the Galaxy Mobile website in Japan, but online reservations will be accepted from May 13. The smartphone, or rather the bundle, will be on sale starting May 15.

The standard Galaxy Z Flip is already available in Japan online through KDDI’s sub-brand au for 179,360 yen ($1,670). The Thom Browne Edition will be distributed in the country through the same retail channel but the asking price will be higher. Prospective buyers are looking at a 270,000 yen ($2,515) price tag, but this lump of money will get them more than just a Galaxy Z Flip bearing Thom Browne’s signature Americana striping.

The Galaxy Z Flip Thom Browne Edition is a complete package rather than just a phone, and this is true in Japan and every other market in which it’s been released so far. The retail box includes a pair of Galaxy Buds+ earbuds, a Galaxy Watch Active 2, and a protective case for the smartphone, all of which feature the custom color scheme. The Thom Browne smartphone itself has never been sold separately without these accessories, therefore, the higher asking price compared to the regular Galaxy Z Flip is justified.

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip is intrinsically a more fashionable smartphone compared to even the company’s other foldable device, the Galaxy Fold. Samsung’s fashion collaboration leading to the Thom Browne Edition further highlights this inherency. But beyond the stylish exterior design, the Galaxy Z Flip is a competitive smartphone, spec-wise. You can read more about its capabilities in our review, and since the Galaxy Z Flip Thom Browne Edition ships along with the Galaxy Buds+ and Galaxy Watch Active 2, you might be interested in reading our thoughts on these two products as well. Just hit the links.

Samsung Display rumored to be OLED supplier for 2020 iPhones

Samsung Display makes the world’s best OLED panels for phones, and it has been supplying Apple with OLED panels for all high-end iPhones. However, Apple has been trying to reduce its reliance on Samsung by switching some orders to LG Display. It was also rumored that Samsung might completely lose the contract to supply OLED screens for iPhones, but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.

According to information coming out of various sources, Samsung Display will continue to supply OLED panels to upcoming iPhones this year. However, it won’t be the sole supplier for 2020 iPhones. Chinese firm BOE and South Korea’s LG Display are rumored to have received OLED panel orders for cheaper iPhones that will be launched this year.

Apple is expected to launch four iPhones this year: iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Max, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max. The iPhone 12 and the iPhone 12 Max are expected to feature 5.4-inch and 6.1-inch 60Hz OLED screens from BOE, LG Display, and Samsung Display. The iPhone 12 Pro and the iPhone 12 Pro Max, which cost more than non-Pro iPhones, could end up using 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch 120Hz OLED screens from Samsung Display.

It is also being rumored that Samsung will provide Y-OCTA OLED panels for iPhones. Y-OCTA technology reportedly removes a layer of film substrate and the touchscreen circuit is integrated directly into the glass substrate, making it a thinner display panel.

Samsung will reportedly not offer its more advanced, LTPO OLED screens to Apple. LTPO OLED screens are known to feature a variable refresh rate and higher power efficiency compared to previous-generation OLED panels. The South Korean smartphone giant is rumored to use LTPO OLED panels in the Galaxy Note 20 series.

Samsung India will bring smartphone finance options to your doorstep

Samsung already offers home delivery of smartphones to its customers in India. Now, the company has decided to go one step further and provide consumers easy financing options to buy smartphones from the comfort of their homes. This is a win-win solution for smartphone buyers as well as the company, especially during the COVID-19 lockdown.

The company has announced that it will start offering Samsung Finance+ to its smartphone buyers in India, even when they’re at home. This will make it easier for people to buy smartphones while maintaining advised social distancing and hygiene. This new feature was developed by Samsung India in collaboration with DMI Finance as a part of its ‘Make in India‘ initiative.

A consumer who wants to buy a Samsung smartphone via a finance program, they can contact a neighborhood dealer. The dealer will then send a Samsung promoter to the customer’s home to take them through an easy, zero-interest financing process. The entire process, which includes credit scoring and collecting personal details, is fast and fully digital.

Mohandeep Singh, SVP of Mobile Business at Samsung India, said, “At Samsung, consumers are at the heart of everything we do. The home delivery of Samsung Finance+ will enable our consumers to buy their favorite Galaxy smartphone at easy finance from the comfort of their homes. It will also ensure that our consumers don’t have to step out to a physical store at a time when Social Distancing is the new normal.”

Earlier, Samsung Finance+ was only available at 12,000 dealerships and physical stores in 300 towns across India. Now, it is available throughout the country, and customers can access it through the comfort of their homes. It is a great initiative by Samsung as it not only offers convenience to users but also ensures their safety during the COVID-19 lockdown phase.

Trump administration wants more Samsung chip factories in the U.S.

Samsung may expand expand its semiconductor manufacturing operations in the United States at the behest of the Trump administration. Government officials are said to have already approached the Korean tech giant over the matter, but that scenario remains purely hypothetical. The incumbent executive powers are reportedly soliciting domestic chip to manufacture investments in response to the difficulties stemming from the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. Following the original COVID-19 outbreak in Wuhan, most of the largest supply chains in the world found themselves under heavy strain due to their over-reliance on Chinese foundry production.

A common belief in Washington is that something like that wouldn’t have happened with more U.S.-focused logistics. That’s according to a new report from The Wall Street Journal, citing officials close to stateside administrators.

Samsung in the running alongside Intel, TSMC

The U.S. government is consequently hoping to see more stateside chipset factories moving forward, but it’s still undecided whether it needs one or more partners to accomplish that goal. In other words, Samsung isn’t the sitting administration’s only option as Washington also discussed silicon production expansion with some of the Seoul-based company’s fiercest global rivals. That would be Intel and TSMC, with the former currently being the favorite to open more foundry outlets in the country.

Samsung’s stateside presence in the niche largely revolves around its chip fabrication complex in Austin, Texas. Its foundry subsidiary operates six other silicon plants, four of which are located in its home country, with the remaining two being in China. The Austin factory already piqued the Trump administration’s interest several years back, at the beginning of its term. On that occasion, Samsung pumped a billion dollars into the outlet as a show of goodwill to President Trump and his protectionist economic platform.

Gear S3 and Gear Sport update brings Bixby, some Watch Active 2 features

We recently revealed that starting June 1st, Samsung’s old S Voice assistant would be discontinued for good. We had also revealed that Samsung would be replacing S Voice with Bixby through a software update on at least the Gear S3 and Gear Sport. That software update has now arrived for both smartwatches and is rolling out in a couple of markets as we write this.

The new Gear S3 and Gear Sport software update, in addition to Bixby, brings some functionality from the Galaxy Watch Active 2. Those include new emoticons, which should offer a more diverse set of skin tones, and the ability to go back to apps running in the background by tapping their icons on the watch face. The update also makes some improvements to existing features – sleep mode detection has been improved, Always On Display is more legible when the watch is being charged or power saving mode is active, and customization of toggles in the quick panel has been improved as well.

The update for the Gear S3 (both Classic and Frontier models) features firmware version R76*XXU2FTD4, and the Gear Sport update comes with firmware version R600XXU1CTD3. The updates are currently available in the US and South Korea but should be making their way to other countries in the coming days. If you own either watch, you can manually check for and download the update from the Watch software update section in the Galaxy Wearable app on your connected smartphone.
