Samsung didn't have much success with the Galaxy S21. High hopes are therefore placed on the Galaxy S21 FE, which is to become a cheaper alternative. After some back and forth, the timetable for the Fan Edition but also for the Galaxy S22 should finally be ready. Not everyone will like it. Samsung Galaxy S21 FE in January, Galaxy S22 later The rumor mill is in turmoil. The Galaxy S21 FE, which should have been presented weeks ago, but was then probably withdrawn, is now supposed to appear. Samsung is said to have committed to a performance in January 2021 . According to SamMobile, the Galaxy S21 FE will probably only be unveiled and launched on the market via press release. Delays occurred as Samsung couldn't find enough chips to produce. This also has a negative effect on the Galaxy S22. According to SamMobile, Samsung should not launch the next top smartphone earlier in December 2021, but rather later than actually in February 2022 . The normal release was actually plann

Samsung started yesterday to distribute the second Android 12 beta of its One UI 4.0 user interface to users for testing. And Samsung cannot avoid taking over the new material You from Google. Surprisingly, the "Dynamic Color" function with wallpaper-based color themes can be found in the beta. The nearly 1 GB Android 12 Beta 2 for the Galaxy S21 series brings some notable changes to One UI 4.0. According to Samsung's changelog, there is a new microphone mode for video calls, a fix for an issue with Secure Folder, improved accuracy of the Samsung keyboard, and several other minor improvements. The biggest change, however, is the support for Dynamic Color. This Android 12 feature is prominently used in Material You on Google's Pixel phones, but has not yet been discovered on a third-party version of Android 12. So now with Samsung. : 9TO5Google As with the Pixel phones running Android 12, One UI 4.0 can now capture color schemes based on the current backgr

The Galaxy Note 8 was a very important device for Samsung. It had to reassure customers that Samsung's Galaxy Note series is safe. And with the Galaxy Note 8, Samsung has hit the bull's eye. It helped Samsung put the unfortunate exploding Galaxy Note 7 behind. But now the time has come for the Galaxy Note 8. The Samsung Galaxy Note 8 was introduced in 2017. It had great features and a new design. The device already had a dual camera when this trend was just beginning. Samsung has only released two major Android OS upgrades for the device. Android 10 with One UI 2.0 was not available for the model. For four years, however, there had been security updates for the device. It wasn't until October last year that the Galaxy Note 8 switched from the monthly update plan to the quarterly one. And now it's all over. The last update it received in August 2021 will be the last. Samsung has completely removed the Galaxy Note 8 from its security update plan. It will not rec

Will the release of the Samsung Galaxy S22 series be postponed? It seems like Samsung wants to make space for the presentation of another device, the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE! Yes, exactly that model, which has actually already been completely canceled . But yesterday there were new signs of life of the model and it is said that it should now appear in January 2022. Samsung doesn't seem to want to give up the Galaxy S21 FE yet and is even sacrificing the January 2022 release of its new flagships of the Galaxy S22 series. So you can read it now. And allegedly postpones the release to February 2022. It is believed that Samsung could plan an unpacked event as part of MWC 2022 at the end of February. But none of this makes much sense. Why postpone the most important smartphone series for a smartphone that was originally supposed to appear in May 2021? It is hopelessly out of date after all !? Or are there completely different reasons? Is the chip crisis causing problems for Sam

After four years, Samsung has had enough: The Galaxy Note 8 will not receive any further updates. The smartphone was incredibly important for the manufacturer, as its predecessor often went up in flames. Lost trust absolutely had to be regained. Galaxy Note 8: Samsung no longer distributes updates Four years after the release of the Galaxy Note 8, Samsung draws a line. From now on there will be no more updates for the Note phone . Operating system updates are long gone anyway, because Android 9 was the last version that was distributed by Samsung. If you are still on the move with your smartphone, you should now look for alternatives at the latest. With the Galaxy Note 8, Samsung was under enormous pressure. Its direct predecessor, the Galaxy Note 7, made itself felt in the collective memory primarily with its ability to explode . Samsung's reputation was on the ground - and the dangerous mistakes were never allowed to be repeated with the successor. Samsung succeeded in doing

Now the Samsung Galaxy S20 series from last year is getting the latest security update from October 2021. October has barely started when Samsung has already supplied the next model series. Just yesterday, Samsung described the content of the security patch . Last year's Galaxy S20 series is also quickly brought up to date by Samsung. Now the latest October 2021 patch follows. Samsung is still working hard, so this time the users didn't have to wait that long for the latest patch. The Samsung Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20 + and Galaxy S20 Ultra are now being updated. According to the changelog, there is only the new security patch, there are general bug fixes and improvements to the device stability. I can't say whether RAM Plus is on board, does someone have the answer? As is always the case with the monthly updates, this is also distributed in waves to the users, which means that one or the other of you may have to wait a few hours before the update is offered. s):

Is there still a sign of life in the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE? Actually, one thought that the topic was through. But apparently not after all. Because the latest rumors indicate a start. But much later than previously thought. We'll have to wait until the beginning of next year. The chip crisis has ensured that there will probably be no Samsung Galaxy S21 FE this year. Actually it should be presented in May, then in August and finally in October. But nothing came of it and Samsung had actually already canceled the model. Or not? The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will probably not come onto the market until December or January 2022 together with the Samsung Galaxy S22 series. Hmm, it's kind of weird, why isn't there a Galaxy S22 FE right away? Or will it be presented even under this year? So far these are just rumors. With the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE in particular, you can't say anything reliably, there is simply too much in the balance. s): Twitter The article Samsung G

Samsung recently launched two new folding smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3. But it is precisely with these models that Samsung probably uses a new evaluation method with which one would like to protect oneself from unauthorized repairs. But this also affects owners who have legitimate claims to repairs. Samsung smartphones: Accelerometer records falls According to the latest information, a "case log" will also be integrated with the new folding smartphones from Samsung (source: WinFuture). It is reported in Korean media that Samsung will refuse repairs if a fall is detected based on the information obtained with it . Samsung wants to avoid having to meet unjustified claims that cause high costs. The new function significantly expands the monitoring of Samsung users. For example, a case is reported in which the owner of a Galaxy Z Flip 3 with a crack in the display was not supposed to receive repairs because it was found that the mobile phone has alread

An exciting new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Note concept now shows a foldable smartphone with an unusual hybrid design, and of course the S Pen. It has a foldable external display that wraps around the hinge and a dedicated S Pen slot. It doesn't look like the current Galaxy Z Fold 3 or the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, but it tries to combine both worlds in unusual ways. But will it ever appear? The render images and the video were created by Technizo Concept based on a Samsung patent application discovered by LetsGoDigital. It looks like the so-called Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Note uses a single foldable exterior display instead of a dual display configuration. This leads to some unusual design features, such as the rear display, which is extremely narrow even compared to the Z Fold 3's cover display. The S Pen slot is not easily accessible, more specifically, it is not accessible at all when the Galaxy Z Fold Note is folded. It is wedged between the two sides of the phone and can onl

Samsung is planning a new function for the Galaxy S22 that no other smartphone in the world has. Especially in games you will see a huge difference compared to previous cell phones. For Samsung, this marks the beginning of one of the most important partnerships in years. Samsung Galaxy S22 with ray tracing We have known for a long time that Samsung is working with AMD on the Exynos 2200 to take its own processor to the next level. Especially in the area of ​​the graphics unit, Samsung will do a lot more and Qualcomm will also compete with Apple. Samsung has now confirmed that the Exynos 2200 uses ray tracing technology (source: Weibo via Notebookcheck). Ever since the launch of the latest graphics cards and next-gen consoles, we have known that ray tracing ensures breathtaking graphics in PC and console games. An AMD GPU works in the PlayStation 5, which also masters ray tracing and takes games graphically to a whole new level. This is exactly what Samsung promises for games on the

The Android 12 beta with One UI 4.0 is now available for the Samsung Galaxy S21, S21 Plus and S21 Ultra. Samsung reveals for the first time how big the innovations will be compared to Android 11 and how the Material-You-Design will be implemented by Google. So you install the new version. Samsung Galaxy S21: Android 12 Beta is here Update from October 5th, 2021: Samsung has released the second beta version for the Galaxy S21 smartphones. Many of the bugs in the first version should already have been eliminated there, especially since Google has now also released Android 12. You can trigger the update in the settings.

The beta program started three weeks ago and, as expected, the new second beta brings a number of fixes and improvements - and it also includes the new virtual RAM feature. The new version is called G99xxXXU3ZUJ1 and is a proud 969.04 MB in size. In addition to RAM Plus and various improvements as well as many other bug fixes, a new color theme is used, which is now more reminiscent of Material You. In addition, Samsung also rolled out the security patch from October 2021 with this new version. Now it's time to continue testing diligently and looking for and finding errors. And hopefully Beta 3, which will hopefully be available soon, will be much more stable and error-free. Samsung has promised that the final Android 12 update for the Galaxy S21 series will start this year. However, the manufacturer did not give an exact date, I would guess December,

Samsung was the first manufacturer to release the October 2021 security update. The new security patch has been rolling out since last week, with the Galaxy S21 series being the first to receive the update. In the last few days the latest update has been released for several smartphones and tablets. Now the South Korean company has announced details of the October 2021 security patch.

The official starting signal for the Android 12 test has now also been given in Germany. Samsung has started the open beta phase for the One UI 4 user interface for models of the Galaxy S21 series in Germany. Samsung Galaxy S21 5G, Galaxy S21 + 5G and Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G devices can participate in the beta program. One UI 4 is based on the Android 12 operating system and offers new functions for the areas of personalization and data protection, which should give users even more options when using their smartphones. "One UI 4 supports users in creating an individual smartphone experience that corresponds to their own needs and preferences ... As with every previous version of our One UI user interface, we have taken into account the feedback from our users in order to understand which new features are important i

Samsung has started rolling out a really interesting new feature for more of its Galaxy smartphones. This can have a positive effect on the performance of the devices in certain situations. Samsung: "RAM Plus" function discovered in more smartphones Not so long ago, Chinese smartphone manufacturers began adding additional memory to their own devices. Internal memory is split off and made available as working memory when the normal RAM is full. Samsung recently unlocked exactly this function in the brand new Galaxy A52s 5G. Contrary to previous expectations, this function is not only intended for entry-level and mid-range smartphones , as SamMobile has discovered. Samsung has even given the Galaxy Z Fold 3 an additional 4 GB of "RAM Plus" memory with 12 GB of dedicated memory. This smartphone will probably never need the additional RAM, but it shows that all Samsung devices will probably receive the additional RAM. Especially with entry-level smartphones with 2

With the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE, another model gets the latest October 2021 patch. Samsung keeps the cheap flagship from last year up to date. The update is called G781BXXS4CUI1. While we are now slowly having to say goodbye to the hope that the Galaxy S20 FE will get a successor, Samsung keeps the model up to date. Even before Google distributes the October 2021 update for its Pixel, it is already available for the affordable flagship. The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE now receives the October 2021 patch in the form of the update G781BXXS4CUI1. Samsung has yet to provide detailed information on the bugs and vulnerabilities that have been fixed with the latest security patch. As always, the update will be distributed in waves, some of you may have to wait a few more days for the update to appear. In the settings under software update you can check whether it is already available. s): SamMobile The article Samsung Galaxy S20 FE gets patch in October 2021 [G781BXXS4CUI1] first appear

The Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G was the first Samsung smartphone that it had a new feature called RAM Plus on board. RAM Plus expands the memory available on the phone by using 4 GB of built-in memory as virtual memory. Back then, people wondered if RAM Plus would be available on other Galaxy devices. And now it looks like it is. RAM Plus has also arrived on the Samsung Galaxy A52 5G and even on the flagship Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 with its 12 GB of RAM. The function was initially not available on the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Samsung only seems to have introduced the feature with a recent software update. Now that this model has also been equipped with RAM Plus, other high-end and flagship phones, such as the Galaxy S21 series, are likely to appear soon. RAM Plus is not customizable. There is 4 GB of additional virtual memory, there is no way to change it or disable the feature. Whether RAM Plus is available on your Galaxy, simply open the submenu "Battery and Device Care" under

With the Galaxy S22, S22 Plus and S22, Samsung has to bring ultra high-end smartphones onto the market that are selling well. At the moment, however, the company seems to be working hard to ensure that exactly the opposite occurs. When it comes to the battery, savings are made instead of bulky. Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus: Battery is getting smaller too Just yesterday we reported that the battery in the Galaxy S22 was getting smaller. It has now been assumed that Samsung only does this with the smallest model. But exactly the opposite is the case. Samsung will also downsize the battery on the Galaxy S22 Plus. The Galaxy S22's battery has been reduced from 4,000 mAh to 3,700 mAh compared to its predecessor. The capacity of the Galaxy S22 Plus drops from 4,800 mAh in the Galaxy S21 Plus to just 4,500 mAh (source: MyFixGuide). So you lose 300 mAh each time. This will inevitably affect the battery life of the Galaxy S22 Plus. No matter how efficient the new processor and the display of

Even in 2021 there will still be a TV set in almost every apartment. In the meantime, they are already trumpeting the dimensions of some pieces of furniture, but mostly look like large, ugly foreign objects. I mean: The country needs nicer televisions and more like Samsung, please - the topic of my weekend column today. Televisions have become bigger, flatter, but not necessarily more beautiful in recent years. Technically, the former focusing screens have learned a lot, but in my opinion the manufacturers are increasingly neglecting the appearance . Let's be honest, it feels like the overwhelming majority of TV sets now look identical and therefore ugly. The television mutates into a black hole in the apartment Millions of people put a flat, boring box in their living room or, at best, hang it on the wall. Especially when it is switched off, a large black hole is created , which soaks up the last bit of aesthetic sense and makes it disappear. There are only a few exceptions:
