I’m still surprised that, in more than 10 years of iPhone, none of Apple’s rivals have copied its iPhone sales strategy. Not even Samsung, which is arguably the best company in the world at copying the iPhone and replicating its success. But that’s about to change, at least for Samsung, which quietly confirmed the move …
Nearly eight months after Android 8.0 Oreo first began rolling out to the public, the remaining Galaxy S8, S8+ and Note 8 phones that have yet to receive the update are finally poised to join the current generation.

The Galaxy S9 is available to consumers in Korea, but things aren’t looking good for Samsung, as more reports seem to confirm last week’s rumors.

Smartphones made of glass are absolutely gorgeous, and most flagships unveiled at MWC 2018 will feature a glass sandwich design. The Galaxy S9 is among them, which is hardly surprising considering that Samsung shifted to glass a few years ago when it finally ditched plastic. The problem with glass phones is that they tend to …
Samsung needed a few months of testing before a finished version of its Android 8.0 Oreo update was ready for the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+. But despite the months of testing, the company had to halt the rollout just a few days after launch, leaving fans even more frustrated than before. But it looks …
While many Samsung fans are anxiously awaiting the reveal of the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ (which is less than a week away), there are plenty of consumers who don’t care about owning the latest generation smartphone.
