Do the Galaxy Buds 2 feature 360-degree Audio like the Galaxy Buds Pro?

Samsung launched the Galaxy Buds Pro about six months ago and it immediately became clear that they were the best earbuds yet from Samsung. They brought improvements for the listening experience, added ANC to a familiar Samsung earbud design, and more. There was another feature that Samsung introduced with the Galaxy Buds Pro that we haven’t seen so far on any of the company’s earbuds. The 360-degree Audio feature significantly enhanced the audio...

Don’t even try using a regular S Pen with the Galaxy Z Fold 3!

The Galaxy Z Fold 3 is the first foldable phone to offer S Pen support, but as you may already know, it doesn’t work with just any S Pen. Samsung explained why the Galaxy Z Fold 3 is only compatible with the S Pen Fold Edition and the S Pen Pro, but what you might not know is that using any other type of S Pen with the new Galaxy Z Fold 3 could damage its foldable display. It’s not an exaggeration or something related to software. Rather, the tip...

Here’s why the Galaxy Z Flip 3 doesn’t have an under-display camera

The Galaxy Z Fold 3 is Samsung’s first-ever smartphone to boast UDC (Under-Display Camera) technology. And although the Z Fold 3 got announced at the same event as another foldable Galaxy phone, UDC technology remains exclusive to the larger model. It isn’t available for the clamshell Galaxy Z Flip 3. Samsung reps explained why, and apparently, it has to do with the form factor. Or rather, the fact that the large 7.6-inch foldable display is more...

Meet the new S Pen Pro, the bridge that gaps foldable and regular phones

Samsung won’t release any new Galaxy Note models this year, but the company’s making up for it with the S Pen Pro and the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Samsung teased the S Pen Pro earlier this year but held off from launching it until the August Galaxy Unpacked event. There’s a good reason for this, and once you learn all about the S Pen Pro, you’ll know why it wouldn’t have made any sense for Samsung to bring...

Galaxy Buds 2 vs Galaxy Buds Pro: Get the best for $50 less

Does the S Pen work on both of the Galaxy Z Fold 3’s displays?

If there would be such a thing as “the expected unexpected,” it could be defined by how Samsung married up the S Pen and the Galaxy Z Fold series. Following the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 2 in August 2020 and the release of an S Pen for the Galaxy S21 Ultra in January, everyone expected the Galaxy Z Fold 3 to become the first in its series to support Samsung’s iconic input device. But not everyone was sure that Samsung’s foldable display has become...

Want to get the most out of the new Galaxy Z Fold 3? Meet the Note Pack!

Samsung is well aware of the high entry barrier to foldable devices — after all, it’s Samsung who spent all that R&D money to develop foldable displays in the first place. Nevertheless, the company’s been working on lowering the price of foldables ever since the launch of the original Galaxy Fold. And with the Galaxy Z Fold 3, Samsung managed to bring the price down to $1,799 after shaving $200 off last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 2 price. This is despite...

Samsung just fixed the Android to iPhone WhatsApp data transfer problem

A couple of weeks ago, it was reported that it might become easier to transfer WhatsApp from iPhone to Android. The world’s most widely used cross-platform messaging app didn’t offer an official feature to transfer chats from iOS to Android. It recently emerged that the Facebook-owned company was working on a feature that would make it easier to take your WhatsApp chats from iPhone to an Android-powered...

Check out the Galaxy Z Fold 3 under-display camera in action!

Under-display cameras are the ultimate solution to the dreaded notch/hole-punch design language that has plagued most modern-day smartphones. It is quite tricky to get right, as the light has to pass through an extra layer of glass. Image quality concerns aside, another concern around the tech is if it disrupts the all-screen look in a meaningful way. There’s only one way to find out. Lo and behold,...

Exynos or Snapdragon: What powers the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3?

The Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 are the best foldables Samsung has launched yet, with amazing features such as water resistance, under-display cameras (only on the Z Fold 3), and better, more durable designs. As you would expect, they also sport flagship silicon under the hood, and many of you might be wondering exactly what chips are powering these foldables. Is Samsung’s new Exynos chip with an AMD GPU finally here, or is Samsung using...

What is Samsung’s new Under-Display Camera tech and how effective is it?

Samsung’s mobile phones went full circle, from not having a front-facing camera more than a decade ago, to having one, to having an Infinity cutout or notch, and back to not having a front-facing camera. At least in appearance. The Galaxy Z Fold 3 is Samsung’s first mobile device to feature a UDC, or Under-Display Camera, which might be good enough to fool some people into believing that the new flagship...

Galaxy Buds 2 go official with noise cancellation at more affordable price

Alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 3, Galaxy Z Fold 3, and the Galaxy Watch 4 series, Samsung has also unveiled the Galaxy Buds 2.
