Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Hands-On [Vodafone]

By Chris Burns
on 24 Feb, 2011

Have a look with us much closer to this bigger and significantly modified version of the original Galaxy Tab, indeed a brand new monster wholly on the outside and the in. We did get the chance last week to take a peek at this device at Mobile World Congress 2011, but as our good pal Chris Davies had the opportunity, it didn't make a moment of sense not to turn another peek at the device out in the wild. This is the Vodafone-branded version of the tablet and it does not fail to impress.

Samsung Galaxy S II Will Have MHL (Less Ports for More Beauty)

By Chris Burns
on 23 Feb, 2011

It's stuff like this, Samsung... This is probably the most brilliant innovation in the past few years - the combining of cords. One example is here in the Samsung Galaxy S II (or Samsung Galaxy S 2, however you want to write it,) where an MHL port has been introduced. This port functions as both a microUSB and an HDMI port in one. It's the size of a microUSB port, so if you're just going to use that, you're set. If you want to use HDMI for high-def playing of content from your device, you'll just need a microSD to HDMI cord to plug.

Oh my goodness gracious, how has this not come to fruition before? Of course there have been collaborations and promotions between smartphones and rappers before, but never in such an oddly cool way as this. The following is a project launched by metroPCS, Samsung Mobile, Snoop Dogg (or Snoop Dogggg as you're about to see,) Warren G, model Brittany Dailey, AND Ted Williams - the man with the Golden Voice. Recognize everyone from that list? Good. They're about to sell you a Samsung Galaxy Indulge, "the world's first commercially available 4G LTE Android smartphone."

Samsung S5830 Galaxy Ace Spotted?

By Dylan Bailey

It seems Samsung is going to be a huge player in Mobile World Congress this year in Barcelona. Even with their tarnished reputation, we can all agree that they make some very solid devices, one of which is the newly leaked Samsung Ace which has just been spotted in the wild. The device seems to be a lower-end Galaxy S device for users who are looking for an entry-level phone and should be made available early this year. Featuring a 5MP camera, 3.5-inch "LCD" (Note: not AMOLED or Super AMOLED), and a 800MHz processor, it's definitely not a powerhouse, but it could be the perfect fit for many. What do you think of the Ace? Too little, too late? Not the phone you'd buy, or are its specs a perfect fit? [Via Engadget]

Another Dual-Core Samsung Phone Confirmation (Plus More Anzu)

By Chris Burns
on 14 Nov, 2010

This time from a trusted source in Russia, @eldarmutazin of Mobile Review, tweeted "Playing with se anzo [Anzu?] and galaxy 2 aka i9100. Se is nice but sams is so technically advanced. Dual core etc." The original Samsung Galaxy S had model number GT-i9000. There's a rumor about the Nexus S being scrapped in hopes of releasing a Dual-Core version, possibly this year. Lots of speculation, lots of rumor, but very possibly lots of news.
