Samsung teases 'amazing' camera in new flagship phONE

Samsung teases 'amazing' camera in new flagship phone




A month ago, I wrote about the iPhone's camera and how instrumental it is to many of the things that make that bestselling device so appealing. Today, Apple's most direct competitor, Samsung, has reiterated its long history of developing cameraphones and promised to deliver nothing less than "the future of cameras." In a post by Samsung's camera R&D chief DongHoon Jang, the company promises its 2015 flagship phone "will be intelligent and do all the thinking for users, allowing them to take amazing pictures under any conditions, without having to worry about anything more than just pressing the shutter button."
Imaging technology has been a traditional strength for Samsung's flagship smartphones, and the latest Galaxy Note 4 has marked an appreciable upgrade after a couple of years of relative stagnation in image quality. Now Samsung seems intent to step things up another notch, with the blog post also discussing the rising importance of the front-facing camera for taking selfies. Much of this sounds like what LG is already doing with the G3 and G Flex 2: both feature an interface-free camera mode where just tapping on the screen focuses and takes the picture. Samsung's promising a similar level of automated simplicity, while also hinting at an increase in its camera resolution by pointing to the progressive increase in megapixels in its Galaxy S line.

It's a little disheartening to see Samsung define its camera progress by the number of megapixels in each year's model. The thing that makes the iPhone so popular is its ease and quickness of use, which Samsung is evidently looking to address, though perhaps not to an extent where that might compromise its usual push to be a spec leader as well. On the other hand, it's good see Samsung putting an emphasis on the camera as a leading feature in a device that's expected to have an all-new metal design and three-sided screen. The sixth-generation Galaxy S is set to be unveiled at Mobile World Congress on March 1st, which is when we'll find out exactly how many mega pixels it has and what sort of images they can capture.

Galaxy Fold reportedly has a serious display defect that might get you a free screen replacemen

A report  early on Wednesday  said that Samsung is working on additional foldable smartphones beyond the Galaxy Fold that it unveiled a couple of weeks ago. Samsung is still trying to figure out exploring what buyers will need from a foldable handset while perfecting the components that go into such devices. And it appears that, while Samsung is ready to experiment with different Fold designs, the model that launches this spring might have a serious screen issue. As exciting as first-gen foldable phones may seem right now, we should expect some issues from these first-gen devices, especially when it comes to screen durability. Samsung did say the Galaxy Fold can fold some 200,000 times, and that may very well be the case. But nobody will like seeing creases and screen imperfections appear on the screen. This is, after all, a device that sells for around $2,000, with the screen being its most important feature. If you fold the phone ten times a day, you might see the c...

Huawei P30 release date

The Huawei P30 and Huawei P30 Pro are set to be the next flagship smartphones from the Chinese brand, which has gone from strength to strength in recent years. The Huawei P20 and Huawei P20 Pro rivaled the likes of the Galaxy S9, Galaxy S9 Plus, Pixel 3 XL and new iPhones, and the P30 duo (or potentially trio) will certainly have the Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10 Plus in their sights. We say potentially trio, as Apple launched three new phones back in September, and Samsung did the same in February, so we wouldn't be surprised if Huawei followed suit with a new trio of its own under the P30 name. Huawei has even teased the arrival of the handsets, with a video posted on Twitter confirming the March 26 launch date for the "P30 series" - suggesting we'll definitely see more than one phone with the P30 name attached to it.

Samsung Galaxy S10+ review (king of andriod)

Summary The Galaxy S10+ is exactly what you’d expect out of Samsung’s tenth flagship handset. After all, the company’s been making these for a decade, and knows what works. The S10+ is a winning mix of powerful performance, long-lasting battery, stunning display and capable cameras. There’s also a welcome software overhaul and the ability to wirelessly charge compatible devices, making this a surprisingly useful handset. You’ll have to live with minor quirks like an inconsistent fingerprint sensor, lousy AR emoji and a subpar digital assistant, but none of those keep the S10+ from being an ultimately superb phone Displays One of my biggest questions going into this review was whether I'd be bothered by the "hole punch" display or if I'd get used to it over time. I go back and forth on this, and that's probably because the cutout for the camera only bothers me in specific instances. On the home screen, or in apps like Uber o...
