Samsung Galaxy S4

Android 4.4.2 begins rolling out to international Samsung Galaxy S4.

Ahead of the release of Samsung‘s next flagship model, the Galaxy S5, Samsung has begun rolling out Android 4.4.2 to the Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500). This will bring a number of small UI changes such as the white notifications icons instead of the multi-color that Samsung has been using on their devices.

The phone will also get a performance boost, and will now get better benchmark scores. The lock screen has also been changed, and users can now access the camera straight from the lock screen. While playing music, the album art will also now be showed in full screen on the lock screen.

Other Android 4.4.2 changes include wireless printing, a number of new emojis, and so on. The update is being rolled out in phases, so you may not get it for a few weeks.

Samsung Galaxy S5 to get fingerprint control

Expert Review...

Although fingerprint readers have been around for a long time, it took until the iPhone 5S and TouchID until we got one that worked quickly and accurately. Now, fingerprint sensors are all the rage and Samsung is planning a brand-new way to use one in its Galaxy S5.

According to SamMobile, Samsung will build the fingerprint sensor into the Galaxy S5's home button and not the screen, as previously rumoured.

Rather than Apple's design, where you merely hold your finger over the button to use TouchID, Samsung's implementation will require you to run your finger slowly over the button in order to scan your fingerprint.

The first and most obvious use for the scanner is to unlock the Galaxy S5, providing a secure and simple way for people to lock their phones. However, Samsung will also recognise up to eight fingerprints and can react differently to each one.

Each fingerprint, provided one is assigned to unlock the phone, can be used to start a specific task or as an app shortcut. In effect, your hand and fingers become a way to control your phone without having to venture near the touchscreen.

Samsung also sees the fingerprint reader at the heart of other security features. These include the new privacy mode, which lets users hide personal apps, data and widgets from view; a fingerprint swipe brings them back, so only the phone's user can see them.

On top of this, the fingerprint sensor will also be used to verify your Samsung account and to authenticate to websites using the phone's browser.

From this it's clear that Samsung's trying to do more with the phone and adjust the way it's used, rather than simply focusing on improved core specifications as it did with the Samsung Galaxy S4. We only need to wait a few days to find out exactly what Samsung has in store, with the Galaxy S5 being launched on the 24 February.

Samsung Galaxy Grand 2.

Now available in Black colour variant in India...

Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 is now listed in two more colour variants on its official India online store - Black and Pink. The Black colour variant is now up for sale, whereas the Pink colour variant will soon be available, and currently features a 'Notify me' option.

Samsung had launched the Galaxy Grand 2 mid-range smartphone in India at Rs. 22,999 on January 17. Initially, the phone was available only in White colour variant with Samsung promising it to be later available in Black and Pink as well.

The Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 is the successor to the Galaxy Grand. Samsung launched the Galaxy Grand 2 globally in November 2013.

The Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 runs Android 4.3 Jelly Bean out-of-the-box, and is a dual-SIM device with support for GSM+GSM. It features a 5.2-inch HD TFT display with a resolution of 720x1280 pixels.

The Galaxy Grand 2 is powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm processor alongside 1.5GB of RAM. It sports an 8-megapixel autofocus rear camera accompanied by an LED flash. It also houses a 1.9-megapixel front-facing camera. It comes with 8GB of inbuilt storage, which is further expandable up to 64GB via microSD card.

Connectivity options on the Galaxy Grand 2 include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS/ A-GPS, Micro-USB and 3G (HSPA+). The smartphone measures 146.8x75.3x8.9mm and weighs about 163 grams. The Galaxy Grand 2 packs a 2600mAh battery that can deliver up to 17 hours of talktime.

Now Samsung is further expected to unveil its next flagship at unPacked 5 event in Barcelona.

Samsung Galaxy S5 features again.

Samsung Galaxy S5 box snapped revealing 20MP camera, 3GB RAM and 5.25-inch 2560 x 1440 display.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 specifications have been leaked in what is claimed to be a photo of the handset's box. This appears to support rumours so far, suggesting we can expect the handset to be unveiled at Mobile World Congress on 24 February.

The photo was sent to the Samsunggalaxys5 site by an anonymous tipster. The specs mentioned on the box show the S5 will come with a 2.5GHz quad core processor, probably the Snapdragon 800, which is backed by 3GB of LPDDR3 RAM. The screen should be 5.25-inches with a stunning 2560 x 1440 resolution (560ppi) Super AMOLED display.

The camera has been in debate as rumours pointed in different directions. It looks like we're getting the one we wanted with a 20-megapixel camera. Although if this is 4:3 aspect ratio that will translate to a 16-megapixel camera at 16:9. It also only appears to shoot 1080p video rather than 4K UHD.

The battery is 3000mAh, a step up from the 2600mAh juice pack found in the current Galaxy S4. Though with a larger, higher-resolution display and more powerful processor this will likely translate to the same day or two of use most phones deliver now.

The operating system is claimed to be Android 4.4. KitKat. Although this is expected there's no confirmation from the photo itself, just the site who received it.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 should also feature an IR Smart Remote, GPS and GLONASS, and LTE with up to 150Mbps downloads. Expect the official reveal at Mobile World Congress on 24 February where Pocket-lint will be in attendance to bring you the first hands-on experience.

Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014

Edition Price and Specs Overview.

Since more than a few months ago, Samsung product portfolios broadened to introduce what we call as a ‘slate’ which catered to power users, the executive and working professionals and those who constantly need their business on the go.

This gave rise to the Galaxy Note 10.1 with the new S Pen. The Galaxy Note 10.1. 2014 is generating a lot of buzz as it comes with a bag full of surprises, well not in literal terms.

Even Microsoft has come up with its Surface 2 which aims at correcting the blunders of its first launch. Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 aims to beat all its competitions way behind and win the race of giving users an experience that is not anticipated and will not be forgotten. The unique features include: compatibility with galaxy gear smart watch, high resolution of 2560X1600 display with a unique superior quality rear cover which only adds to its already amazing style.

It is a 10 inch note tablet with similar visual appeals of the Note 3. The Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 comes along with a 2560 x 1600 pixel super clear resolution which is best in its class. This is a significant improvement from the one that preceded it, which had 1280 x 800 pixel display. In fact it even out beats the iPad Air which has a resolution of 2048×1500 pixels, while the difference isn’t much you know you’re getting a good steal with Samsung.

The small text, pictures, videos and icons look very bright, sharp and clear. It is a different feeling when you read ebooks on it.

It is bright indeed and has brilliant colors, more realistic in a way. For instance, if you run apps or games such as angry birds, you will have a different experience altogether as it seems all the more visually appealing.

THE STYLUS

At the right side edge Note 10.1 2014 comes with its unique stylus. It has a specific design which seems customized only to suit Note 10.1.2014, it has a very fine tip and is much different from the other regular stylus’ that are available. The S Pen stylus has a greater degree of accuracy. The S Pen makes it very smooth to take notes and, doodle or even mark minute detailing very easily. It is best use as a work slate, especially if sketching is a part of your job profile.

Samsung also has tweaked some of its best note taking apps to make life simpler for you. Once you remove the stylus from its place you will see a pop up wheel that will enable you to take quick notes, enter phone number or email id or run a quick search. So basically you enter whatever you want, you will get a corresponding pop up to complete your action.

There are several other functions that you can perform with the S pen. This is a brand new feature introduced with the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 for those who really want some serious work, not only out of their slate but also from their stylus!

Purported Samsung Galaxy S5.

Antutu scores confirm 16 mega-pixel camera and more.

An anonymous tipster has sent in these Samsung Galaxy S5 Antutu benchmark which confirms the phone will have a 16 mega-pixel camera, and further details.

It is believed that Samsung will be launching their flagship Galaxy S5 at the Unboxed event. There have been plenty of rumours as to what the Samsung Galaxy S5 might have in store for us, while nothing is for sure these purported Antutu benchmarks attempt to shed some light on things.

Looking over the screen shots, whilst reaching for our pinch of salt, we can learn that the SamsungGalaxy S5 will have a 1920 x 1080 FHD 1080p display, 2GB RAM, Snapdragon 800 processor running at around 2.5Ghz, and have a 16 mega-pixel rear camera.

The Antutu benchmarks of the Galaxy S5 are 35,666 points which makes the next generation flagship Samsung more powerful than the Note 3, Sony Xperia Z and Xiaomi Mi3!.

Thanks to our anonymous tipster for the screenshots!

SYNAPSE CIRCUIT - SAMSUNG GALAXY S5 24 FEBRUARY LAUNCH 2014

It seems as though Samsung is going to return to the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona to wow visitors and press alike with the Galaxy S5! Samsung are said to be disappointed with worldwide sales of over 40 million Galaxy S4 units. Only an ambitious company that Samsung is can be disappointed where other companies would be over the moon to have sold as many units! I think that it is fair to say that in the US the iPhone is always going to be the top seller. Samsung is the undisputed king of the Android market outside the US! Knowing Samsung they will not be content until they topple iPhone sales on US soil! 
Launching the Galaxy S5 at the Mobile World Congress makes a great deal of sense as the most of the world will be watching! 


FORGET IT!Uh-uh! I don’t mean forget the Galaxy S5 taking off and doing considerably well around the world – including the US! What I mean is that I am not going to bother to speculate too deeply on the specifications because I have learned that Samsung will do its own thing regardless of expectations! 

Eyes Sensor? It would be ideal. Fingerprint Sensor? It appears to be more likely! I am perfectly happy with using a password for security! Judging from what I have been hearing about the iPhone 5S the fingerprint scanner isn’t all that! I think such security technology is in its infancy and there are bound to glitches here and there – especially when the giants of tech try to outdo each other in this race for dominance! 

64 bit processor? Unlikely for the S5 but very possible for the Galaxy Note 4! I know that Samsung would like to go 64 bit but it may be too early for the GS5! It wouldn’t at all surprise me if Samsung released a 64 bit version of the S5 further down the line! But I really don’t think 64 bit is a crucial component for Android handsets at the moment; the quad core processor has become so fast over the last year - much to the joy of Android users enjoying premium handsets of which the Galaxy S4 is one!
I would imagine that the GS5 will get a 16MP camera capable of 4K. Yes, I would imagine that keen photographers would want a 20MP camera to match the likes of Sony! But I am quite sure that the camera is going to be great! Many Galaxy S fans are hoping for an optical stabilizer! 

TOUCHWIZ / MAGAZINE UXIt is said that Samsung is looking to give TouchWiz an overhaul so that it looks like the best of Google Now, Windows 8 and HTC Sense = Magazine UX. But I would imagine that most people who are unhappy with TouchWiz can always use another launcher! Personally, I don’t mind TouchWiz on the GS4 and Note 2 as I find these beasts fast enough for my needs! 

DESIGNAs much as I like the Galaxy S4 I do believe that HTC really showed how great an Android phone can look with the One! 
I thought the Galaxy S2 was a great design departure than that of the S3 that followed. The S4 seemed to be a refinement of the S3 and Note 2. I do believe that Samsung will be pushing for something as radical as the HTC One! But I am hoping very much that this does not come at the cost of a removable battery! 
If you have been following my articles you will know that I am not a fan of metal because it makes the handset more expensive to produce, plus metal dents and scratches. Having seen battered iPhones I am convinced that Samsung has got the materials right! That said, I have yet to see a battered HTC One! 
If I am correct, Samsung will continue to refine the design of the Galaxy Note 3 and that will reflect on the Galaxy S5! Looking at the passed patent designs for a Samsung handset it is very possible that the GS5 will feature a wrap around display thus being the first handset to do away with the bezel altogether. Speaking of display...

DISPLAYMany have said that the Galaxy S4, Note 3 and HTC One has smashed the iPhone retina screen. It is said that Samsung are going to make the retina screen finally redundant with 2,560×1,440 resolution at 560 dpi! Wow – if it turns out to be accurate! In any event I think that we will be seeing a rather futuristic looking handset that is mainly screen! I do think that there will be no physical buttons on this version and that will probably delight Google who have been advocating that manufacturers follow their non-physical button aesthetic. Fingers crossed! Sometimes the physical button can be a little cumbersome at times when using handsets without! 

ANDROIDI expect the Galaxy S5 to be running the latest KitKat, 4.4.

RUMOURThe rumour is that the GS5 will feature 4GB of RAM! I would imagine that this is to make up for not having a 64 bit CPU!
