Apple iMessage will not be a part of Samsung phones, but there’s a catch
Recently, we at the Sammy Fans reported about the interactive platform ‘iTest’ launched by Samsung, in which Apple users can experience the One UI and Android software system on their iPhone. And now, new interesting insights putting light on the use of iMessage in the Galaxy devices.
According to the info, the legal dispute between Epic Games and the iPhone makers somehow reached a point in which iMessage may not be available as a ‘port’ to Galaxy smartphones or any other device pertaining to the Android ecosystem.
Without getting into the legalities, we found that so many discussions and debates happened between the Apple representatives and epic legal counsel. Which, still concluded at a decision that the iMessage won’t be part of Galaxies or other Android phones.
Moreover, this all tells that Epic is fighting a losing battle by trying to sue Apple into opening iOS to other software vendors including Samsung for the Galaxy devices. But looks like it will not going to succeed as Apple will maintain the exclusiveness that makes it unique from Android so far.
Is there still any possibility to use iMessage in the Galaxy device?
Just like Samsung developed the ‘iTest’ to experience One UI in iPhones we can imagine apple may also develop a tool in the future that somehow could help Samsung fans to use IOS (including iMessage) in the Galaxy devices.
Lastly, if our imagination turns out to be a reality then, this could be the best thing, that will happen between Samsung and Apple which usually fights for the throne in the smartphone market.

At It’s Glowtime event, Apple launched new colors of old AirPods Max product. The gadget now comes in Midnight, Starlight, Blue, Purple, and Orange, and offers USB-C charging for more convenience.
AirPods Max is an over-the-ear headphones offered by Apple. The company debuted five new colors of the product at the It’s Glowtime event yesterday. It isn’t the only old item, which refreshed, as the Watch Ultra 2 also got a new color hue.
Apple announced the new colors of AirPods Max cost $549 and went on pre-order yesterday. Shoppers will start receiving their orders starting September 20 as announced by the iPhone maker at yesterday’s It’s Glowtime event.
AirPods Max features a breathable knit mesh canopy, distributing weight to reduce on-head pressure. The noise control button easily switches between Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode.
Pushing its own ecosystem, Apple says AirPods Max users will support all features if connected with an iPhone. Similar to Wear OS exclusivity to Android, Apple is continuing its approach of accentuating feature limitations.
Apple’s decision to unveil new colors of AirPods Max is a strategic move. The company doesn’t require a dedicated launch event to announce the color refresh of products. However, it’s great to utilize a stage to introduce multiple products.
There’s no heavy outrage over the lack of innovation of lazy design movements. Other vendors like Samsung and Google face immense criticism across the internet. Anyways, consumers should be aware and get the best service for the money they are spending.
No Watch Ultra 3: Apple refreshes Watch Ultra 2 against Galaxy Watch Ultra
Samsung didn’t miss the opportunity to troll Apple during the iPhone 16 launch. While the company was introducing its new iPhone models, Samsung repeated a question it asked two years back.
The hype created for iPhone 16 and Apple Intelligence backfired as it can’t crush the Samsung Galaxy AI lead. The Korean tech giant trolled Apple over remaining foldable free. Limited features and availability of Apple Intelligence also came on Samsung’s radar.
Samsung Mobile US used its X handle to poke fun at Apple’s iPhone 16 and Intelligence suite. The mindful attacks show the self-confidence the company has to reiterate its edge over the Cupertino-based company.
In a pair of strategic tweets, Samsung managed to capture attention and spark conversation. The first tweet quotes a two-year-old tweet asking “Let us know when it folds 💁♀️” with a refreshed caption “Still waiting……”

The second tweet followed with:
“You know… we may have set your AI expectations too high. 🤔”
Here, Samsung subtly suggested that Galaxy AI might have set a standard that Apple’s latest device struggled to meet. Galaxy AI is far ahead of Apple Intelligence in many aspects. It not only contains a suite of useful features but also covers a wider audience.
You know… we may have set your AI expectations too high. 🤔

Moreover, the Apple A18 chip arrives with an advanced memory system, which helps the chip manage traffic data more effectively. It uses a second-generation 3-nanometer fabrication process for less power usage to deliver high performance.
The new iPhone 16 is launched to fully take advantage of the new A18 chip, a rival for Samsung Galaxy 2025 smartphones. Apple says the phone is built to support the chip’s advancements in artificial intelligence and data processing capabilities.
