The iPhone 4S Is Not The Number One Smartphone In The World Anymore
Update: It has been noted that the figure below encompasses the major U.S. carriers only. Our argument is that if Samsung is number one everywhere else (China etc) it’s pretty difficult for Apple to have the top smartphone. When more refined figures appear we will update this with figures that show this. Ahhh that explains it. All the trolling trials and attempts to destroy Samsung’s image as a company. Honestly some of things Sammy did both before and leading up to the trial were not very wise... Read The Rest →

So you may have heard about the lawsuits and etc flying but I must say it’s good to get back to good old device launches and spec sheet comparisons etc. With that today’s IFA and Unpacked event’s there are a few new devices to get you salivating. One of those is the Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Of course the Note 2 is the successor to last years very successful Samsung Galaxy Note and it is definitely an improvement over the older model. It sprots a chasis that is only 9.4 mm... Read The Rest →

JKeene Reviews-Bean’s Custom Stock ROM For Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III
So after doing my first ROM review on the GS3, which focused on a rather stock ROM, the search was on for one with a little more bacon. Looking around I found a new ROM over on XDA by Beanstown106 and I knew I had my next ROM on my hands. Bean’s Custom ROM has gone above and beyond making sure that there is something for everyone. Now I know that the name says stock ROM but do not think for a second that Bean has let down those... Read The Rest →
Huge Victory For Apple In Court, Samsung To Owe Over $1Billion!!!!
Yesterday the jury in the big Apple vs Samsung case delivered their verdict and it went just about as bad as Samsung feared. The jury after deliberating mere hours of has ruled that Samsung violated Apple patents on over 20 devices and they have been fined $1,051,850,000. Yes that is over 1 billion dollars, Apple was not fined a dime nor found guilty in any way. The only silver lining here is that the jury found that the Galaxy Tab did not violate any patents so that device is in the... Read The Rest →
Samsung Shows Us The Human Side Of Phone Design In New Video
If you are an Android fan, you most likely hear a lot about Samsung. They sell a vast amount of phones, hell a vast amount of everything. When the Galaxy S 3 dropped, it was easy to get caught up in the reviews, critiques, and over coverage. What gets lost in that glut of media is the human side of device design. There is an army of people behind that phone. They spent vast amounts of time designing every aspect of it and Samsung has put together a video to show... Read The Rest →
JKeene Reviews- Synergy ROM For Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3!!
One of the last things I did before I got rid of my Galaxy Nexus was flash the JB leak. It lead to nothing but problems, the biggest being the almost daily softbricks. The problem was fixed before the phone left but it showed me what can happen to your phone when you run custom software. I work in healthcare and cannot afford to have a phone that does not work. So when my S3 came along, I will admit to being a bit gun-shy. In addition I wanted to use... Read The Rest →
EZ-Unlock App Brings One Touch Bootloader Unlock To Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III!!!
It has been a really busy couple of days on the GSIII front. From Jellybean video leaks to a potential bootloader hack, yesterday was chock full of news. Today brings us something even bigger! When the method to unlock the boatloader appeared yesterday on XDA it came with alot of warnings. Obviously messing with your bootloader will void your warranty and has serious potential to brick your device. The XDA method, in addition to requiring some ADB knowledge, meant that you could no longer accept any over the air... Read The Rest →
Will The Samsung Galaxy S III Android 4.1 Jellybean Update Be Arriving August 29th??
I briefly touched on this last night but the rumor has persisted so let’s revisit it. It looks like Android’s latest and greatest JellyBean may be arriving on the Galaxy S III later this month. On August 29th Samsung has a big announcement planned that should be the unveiling of the Galaxy Note 2. However, if you own a GSIII this may not be the big news coming out that day. It looks like Sammy may have a Jellybean surprise up its sleeve according to a source of GSMArena.com. With... Read The Rest →
Verizon Set To Release Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 In 7″ Flavor On August 17th!!
Starting with the Kindle Fire on Amazon the 7″ tablet scene has become very hot! The Fire was a huge seller for Amazon and Google was swift to show them how it was done with the Nexus 7 tablet. Now it looks like it is Samsung’s turn to get in the game. This is not Sammy’s first 7″ tablet but it is bringing some nice specs to the table. The tablet which I am just going to call the 7 from here on out will be releasing on Verizon’s 4g... Read The Rest →
Purported Galaxy Note 2 Bezel Shows Unexpected Design Direction
You may have seen some of the stories out there regarding the Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Josh Keene investigated the subject of the dubious renders that have been popping up HERE and now we move on to this purported image of the bezel that will be used in the finished product. Surprise it doesn’t match the renders at all. The renders follow a similar design aesthetic as the Samsung Galaxy S3 and this, well you tell me. This one looks to be not so curvy right? I thought I was seeing that... Read The Rest →
