The Galaxy Nexus, released by Samsung in conjunction with Google in November of last year, had a legion of fans who loved the curved glass design that featured a gorgeous Super AMOLED display. If you happen to be one of those fans and have been waiting patiently for the next iteration then it looks like you are about to be in for a treat. Information has emerged about a product that has been given the code name "Superior", the model number GT-i9260 and could be the successor to the popular Galaxy Nexus.
If you thought that the Galaxy S II was done and dusted as a brand for a wide variety of Android smartphones from Samsung in 2011, you’re going to be disappointed. After variants like (S II) LTE, HD LTE, Epic 4G Touch, Skyrocket, Captivate Glide, the Korean company is strongly rumored to be introducing one (hopefully) last variant called the Galaxy S II Plus. Check out the details regarding its looks and hardware specifications after the jump.
The Apple iPhone 4S and the Samsung Galaxy S III are the current kings of the smartphone industry with lovers of iOS and Android both running out of superlatives to say about the two devices. Although the two companies find themselves in the unfortunate position of being locked in a court room in California attempting to come to some kind of resolution relating to their patent disputes, they can take some comfort in the fact that the rest of the big players in the industry have some serious catching up to do before they are on the same level.
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab series of Android based tablets isn’t the most sold or most critically acclaimed, but they do get the job done and that too for a reasonable price. They are available in all sorts of sizes, from 7-inch to an upcoming tablet with an 11.8-inch display.
If you decided to sit down and talk in great detail about what is currently going on in the San Jose courtroom in the Apple vs. Samsung patent case, then you could probably pick one of any number of adjectives to describe the happenings over the last couple of weeks. With only a small amount of legal time remaining on each side to present their case, legal teams from both companies have walked extremely close to the edge, and at one point during the litigation, both have managed to anger and infuriate judge Lucy Koh.
When the Samsung Galaxy Note first arrived last year, quite a few people didn't really know what to make of it. I mean, it looked a great deal like a smartphone, and operated as such, but the sheer size of the device categorized it as something different. The unofficially dubbed "phablet" device has, despite lacking conformity, been a rousing success, and consumers are now looking forward to its successor, set to be announced later this month at Samsung's IFA conference.
There were plenty of question marks raised when Samsung first announced its eagerly-awaited Galaxy S III device, the most puzzling being the lack of a black version. Invariably, the black version of a smartphone is the standard, with colors like white and, as Samsung calls it, "pebble blue," being options for those looking for something a little edgier.
There hasn’t been much news coming out of San Jose in the last few days, but that doesn't mean that the Apple vs. Samsung case isn't still bubbling away like a hot cauldron behind those large doors that stand so proudly in front of Judge Lucy Koh's courtroom. Apple has already had their turn in the legal spotlight with their appointed counsel presenting the fundamentals of their case to the judge and overseeing jury, and now it's time for Samsung's legal eagles to step into the limelight, it seems that they are taking a rather bizarre approach to defending themselves.
If a new tablet is on your shopping list for the very near future and you have already ruled out joining the crowd in getting a 9.7-inch iPad or the highly rated Google Nexus 7, then Samsung may have exactly what you are looking for. Although legal representatives for the company are locked in a Californian court room attempting to settle various patent infringement disputes, it hasn't stopped the Korean electronic giants from handling their business and having another attempt at ending Apple's dominance with the insanely popular iPad.
Although we now know the Samsung Galaxy Note II will be unveiled at the South Korean company’s IFA 2012 event on August 29th, that doesn't mean we should cease all speculation and wait for the official showcasing. The leaks are still arriving thick and fast, and NowhereElse, a site which seems really in the loop with regards to upcoming tech products, has leaked the purported front panel of the forthcoming handset, and by running a ruler across it to measure the diameter, also seemingly confirmed the 5.5-inch size reported on numerous occasions.
