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 →
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is Official
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.

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 →

The Trial Of The Century (at least for us) Begins And Why We Think Samsung May Actually Win
I won’t get on my soapbox too much on this one as I chronicled pretty well in my last editorial that covered a Samsung legal brief going into the billion dollar trial between them and Apple. Well we got more. Samsung has brought out some pretty interesting information on their designs previous to the iPhone which Apple seems to think the invented (they actually stole it from the likes of LG , Palm, HTC, Samsung and Sony and we can prove it). Case in point Apple has removed a few... Read The Rest →
Look Out Apple, Samsung Ready To Produce 350PPi Display Technology??!!
If you have ever owned a Samsung device, you most likely have some experience with their AMOLED display. As one of the world’s chief manufacturers of these displays, they find their way onto many Samsung phones and tablets. Sammy’s displays are known for vibrant colors, great viewing angles, and performance in sunlight. However due to their technology being based on a PenTile matrix there have always been detractors who point out that LCD has a step up in clarity. All that is about to change with news out of Samsung’s... Read The Rest →
Samsung Brief Dismantles Heinous Apple Patent Claims, States The Facts

Below are a series of quotes pulled directly from that legal brief and frankly Samsung destroys Apple’s ridiculous claims and provides plenty of evidence to support their own case against the Cupertino company. The truth is Samsung has been around a long time, invented a... Read The Rest →
JKeene-Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III First Impressions
Today I received my brand spanking new Samsung flagship phone, the Galaxy S 3. The phone comes in an rather unassuming white box with black lettering announcing what beast is within. I am not one of those people who gets salty when they don’t send it in a pretty box, since I will just put it away. Inside you will find the phone, manual, USB cord, wall plug, and an actual decent set of headphones with different covers to fit your ears. Taking the phone out the first thing I noticed...

Could A Cross Licensing Deal Be Imminent? Samsung And Google Team Up To Fight Apple
9 to 5 Mac is reporting that Google and Samsung will team up and have a “game plan” to get more money out of Apple Inc for use of patented technologies. Of course this comes on the heels of the announcement that Apple has won a preliminary injunction banning both the original Galaxy Tab and the flagship device for Google”s latest versions of the Android OS the Galaxy Nexus. Cross licensing agreements are a fairly common method to settle these disputes and I think Google getting involved openly is... Read The Rest →
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Is On The Way!
The International Business Times is reporting that Samsung is preparing a second Galaxy Note phone known right now as the Samsung Galaxy Note 2. While the first note was a risky move for Sammy going a away from their traditional design and form-factors to an expansive phone/tablet design with a 5.3 inch screen. They are taking it a step further this time. The Galaxy Note 2 will have a 5.5 inch screen this time around and will come our way some time in October. According to the report... Read The Rest →
The Samsung Galaxy S III And What It Means To The Android World!!
The Samsung Galaxy series of phones has been a bit of a game changer in the Android world. The first phone in the series, the Galaxy S was a huge seller, racking up over 10 million units sold. The Galaxy S was the first Android phone to be DivX certified and at the time of release was both the thinnest phone at 9.9mm available, combined with the fastest graphics processing unit, the Power VR.
