On Samsung’s Exynos Twitter account, the company hinted at a retina scanner for future Samsung devices. “Security can be improved using features unique to us,” said the Twitter post, which included an image of a phone with an eye at the center, next to a mock interface for paying bills. The post suggests that future phones powered by Samsung’s Exynos processors could include retina scanning as a security measure. Samsung already includes fingerprint scanners on its Galaxy S5 phone Galaxy Tab S tablets, but the sensors are harder to activate than the TouchID sensor on Apple’s ione 5s....

In Summary Galaxy A52 and Galaxy A72 are the latest mid-range smartphones from Samsung. The Galaxy A52 comes in 4G and 5G variants, whereas the Galaxy A72 has only a 4G variant.

Design and Display To start with, the Galaxy A52 (4G and 5G) and the Galaxy A72 both feature a similar design language — a plastic back encased in a plastic frame....

And honestly? We are a little confused. Do not get us wrong here. The Galaxy M40 ticks a lot of boxes in the right way. It is the first in the Galaxy M series to come with a Qualcomm processor (its predecessors used Samsung’s very own Exynos chips) and brings some serious flagship-level specs to the mid-segment table – the coolest of which is perhaps the Screen Sound technology, which transforms the display into a speakerphone calls, doing away with the earpiece altogether....

While it is intriguing so as to why Samsung skipped the number 6 in the Note series and instead is about to announce Note 7. However, one of the deduction says that it you take into consideration the Galaxy Note Edge released in 2014 the next Note should be aptly numbered Note 7. This is what Samsung itself has to say about the nomenclature, “The Galaxy Note7 will minimize confusion about the latest mobile technology from Samsung, and provide full alignment with Galaxy S smartphone....

Due to time zone differences, and my general unwillingness to sit in front of a computer after the clock strikes 17:00, I’m probably the last tech journalist to talk about the discovery AnandTech made yesterday. For those who have no idea what I’m talking about, here’s the one sentence summary: The graphics processor in Samsung’s flagship phone overclocks itself by 10% when it detects that it’s running a certain set of benchmarking tools....

In recent years, cybercriminals have become increasingly sophisticated in their tactics, and they often target businesses through official-looking emails that appear to be sent from partners, clients, government agencies, or even executives within the company itself. Although the communications appear legitimate in nature, one click allows for malware installment and the bypassing of IT firewalls and antivirus software. As a result, a cyberheist can begin immediately, making off with sensitive and valuable information....

My first ‘high-end’ smartphone was the N95 8 GB. And this brought a more powerful 5.0-megapixel camera to the equation, and a slightly larger display (2.8 inches was a big deal in those days), but in most respects was rather similar to the N70, although it did bring a slide out keyboard into the equation. Oh and it was slimmer – just 21 mm thick. And incidentally, at that time, I was saving up to buy what many felt was the king of smartphones in the market – the Nokia E90 Communicator....

The phone listed in the benchmark is the SM-G925, which may turn out to be either a Galaxy S6 or S6 ge that features a curved screen like the Galaxy Note 4 ge....

Yesterday, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Note 9, its biggest and most powerful Note handset yet. The Note 9 in many ways embodies what a Note device truly stands for: a big bad-ass smartphone filled to the brim with top-notch features. While the Note 9 itself is pretty impressive, the S Pen is even more impressive this time around. Samsung has given the S Pen on the Note 9 its biggest upgrade in years....

The official unveiling of the OnePlus 2 earlier today was followed by many publications posting their initial hands-on impressions of the handset. Dubbed as the flagship killer of 2015 and even 2016, the OnePlus is filled to the brim with top-notch specs. The phone is not just about its specs though, as OnePlus has focused on delivering a great experience with the handset. So, what do people who got to try out the handset think about it?...

Benchmarks are a bane to the world of smartphones. While they numerically suggest the maximum performance a device can deliver, the numbers typically do not correlate to how it performs in the real world. For example, a device with a 40,000 score in a benchmark suite is not twice as fast as a device with a 20,000 score in the real world. There is no doubt that the recently launched OnePlus 5 is a fast smartphone, thanks to the combination of the Snapdragon 835 chip, 6 or 8GB RAM, fast UFS 2....

We already know that the OnePlus 7 is going to be announced on May 14. Ahead of that date, though, we’ve still got a few rumors and leaks to sift through.

We also get to see two new colors: Nebula Blue and Mirror Grey....

Look, a tale of two shades! We are going to be blunt about it – these have got to be two of the most interesting phones in terms of color. We had the Ocean Green variant of the Oppo Reno and the Nebula Blue variant of the OnePlus 7 Pro, and both turned heads with their subtle and classy sheen. Importantly, even though both phones used the now-almost-universal glass back, both did so in a manner that made them look strikingly different....

Oppo today has released the first public beta of an AOSP ROM based on Android 5.0.2 for the Find 7 and Find 7a. Oppo has been painfully slow in updating its devices to the latest version of Android, and to reduce the frustration of Find 7 and 7a customers waiting for their Lollipop update, the company has released an AOSP build of Android for them. Since the ROM is based on the AOSP version of Android 5....
