Samsung S21 FE August 2022 update UK

Samsung has finally unveiled the Galaxy S21 FE 5G today. Featuring the Galaxy S21’s same sleek design, high-end performance, pro-grade camera and seamless connectivity, the Galaxy S21 FE 5G offers the premium features of the Galaxy S21 in a nice package so that more people can enjoy them.

The Galaxy S20 FE has been honored as a ‘flagship killer’ in some circles. This may not be the case considering the launch time of the Galaxy S21 FE, but it certainly has some attractive features.

The S21 FE 5G continues the legacy of the Galaxy S21 with its premium, signature design. It all starts with the iconic, fan-favorite contour-cut frame that seamlessly integrates with the S21 FE 5G camera housing for a stylish, unified look.

However, in the United States and a few other countries around the globe, you will find the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset inside the Galaxy S21 FE. It is the second-best Android chipset in 2021, with slightly better performance than the Snapdragon 888 Plus. Both chipsets are weaker than the flagship product Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 by 2022.

Although it is not in the first place, the SD888 is still a beast. Typically, the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE can handle any task you throw. It is suitable for multi-taskers and also a good choice for those who play with playthings with console emulation on their phones.

Meanwhile, in the UK, Europe and many other parts of the world, the Galaxy S21 FE comes with an unnamed Exynos chipset. We believe this is the Exynos 2100 found in the global variant of the S21 series. However, Samsung will not confirm this to us.

One thing to note about the performance regardless of the chipset you get is that the entry-level Galaxy S21 FE comes with 6GB of RAM. This is slightly worse in multi-tasking than the 256GB models of the Galaxy S21 which also has 8GB of RAM and the Galaxy S21 FE which has 8GB.

According to AndroidHeadlines, Google Pixel 9a could be announced by mid-March 2025. Multiple sources citing the outlet confirmed that the next affordable Pixel will go on sale before the end of March 2025.

Pixel 9 Pro XL sparks privacy fears, sends private data to Google every 15 minutes

Google Pixel 9

Pixel 9 Pro XL reportedly sends private user data to Google servers every 15 minutes. A security researcher at Cybernews discovered that the phone frequently transmits sensitive user data, such as email addresses, phone numbers, and locations.

The discovery sparked a privacy fear as private data is being sent to Google through the Pixel 9 Pro XL. The smartphone sometimes transmits sensitive user data to Google servers even before any apps are installed.

The report also states that the Pixel 9 Pro XL has remote management capabilities, which operate without user consent or awareness. It seems there’s a severe security flaw within the Pixel 9 Pro XL’s operating system.

The phone communicates with services like Google Photos’ Face Grouping without user interaction, raising further privacy concerns. The native Calculator is also suspicious as it could leak calculation history to unauthorized users under certain conditions.

“The amount of data transmitted and the potential for remote management casts doubt on who truly owns the device. Users may have paid for it, but the deep integration of surveillance systems in the ecosystem may leave users vulnerable to privacy violations,” Nazarovas said.

It looks like the AI integration has made some major security flaws across the OS. Google packed the new Pixel phones with advanced security features. The research only discusses potential threats, with data leak isn’t such a general task.

Interestingly, Cybernews researchers employed a “man-in-the-middle” approach to capture and analyze this traffic but noted limitations due to the rooting process. As AI is making our lives easier, it is putting the data at threat at the same time.
