Samsung S21 FE August 2022 update UK

Samsung has finally launched the Galaxy S21 FE as part of CES 2022. That smartphone was initially expected to arrive in August last year, but after several delays, it finally arrived this month. The Galaxy S21 FE is undoubtedly the most popular smartphone unveiled at CES 2022.

Samsung Galaxy S21 FE is just what we hoped. It’s one of the best smartphones for those who want a flagship-level device and do not want to part with $1,000. Reality be conveyed, this phone would have been more attractive if it had been launched in August before the arrival of Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, but it is the same.

It also offers some attractive specs to its buyers. It is similar to the Galaxy S21 in many ways, although it was downgraded to a few less critical areas and sold for $699. Despite some flaws, this phone has a lot to offer for the money.

The Galaxy S21 FE has really thin bezels and comes with a display camera aperture. In addition, there are three cameras on the back. It has a flat display and comes in four color variants. Lavender and Olive’s colors are the most attractive, although you can also get white or graphite versions if you prefer a more standard color.

In terms of Specifications

Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888 SoC, or Exynos 2100, depends on the market. It has a stunning AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, Gorilla Glass Victus protection and HDR10+ support. That display is not large, but it is quite large at 6.4 inches.

In addition, you get water and dust resistance, a reliable optical fingerprint scanner and stereo speakers with more than capable cameras. Also here is the latest version of Google’s OS, Android 12. Samsung’s One UI 4 is installed on top of it and it offers tons of customization.

The bottom line is that the Galaxy S21 FE is still a great choice for most people. Despite all the discounts on the Galaxy S21, and since the Galaxy S22 is just around the corner, it’s still a valuable offering to Samsung. This phone has the potential to provide you with services for years to come.

Android Updates War: Google’s Game-Changing Move to Outshine Samsung

Samsung July 2023 security patch details

When it comes to Android updates, Samsung is leading the Android world. However, this could be the last day of Samsung’s leadership as Google is expected to double up its current Android updates support for Pixel smartphones launching today.

2020 was a remarkable year in Samsung’s history when the company extended Android updates support from two years to three. A few months later, the company extended the security support as well, totaling it to four years for flagship Galaxy devices.

In 2022, Samsung launched the Galaxy S22 series, which offers four generations of OS upgrades. In its announcement, the company listed all flagships launched in 2021 and later along with select Galaxy A series smartphones for 4 OS and 5 years of security patches.

With this decision, the South Korean tech giant surpassed Google’s support policy, which owns Android. To be noted, Tensor-powered Pixel smartphones come with three years of Android and five years of monthly security updates support.

Today, Google will launch the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro smartphones. And as per the leaks, both phones will offer up to 7 years of software support, surpassing the longest support provided by Apple to its iPhones. Pixel 8 and later might be eligible for 7 major OS upgrades, which sounds a bit confusing.

There are speculations that there will be five major OS versions and 7 years of regular security patches and quarterly Pixel Feature Drops for the latest flagship smartphones. If it happens, it will force other Android vendors to further extend their support.

While Pixel phones are limited to support 3 major OS versions, Samsung is offering 4 generations of OS upgrades to cheaper Galaxy devices that costs approx $249. Samsung won’t take too long to beat Google yet again in terms of software support.

Let’s see, what Google has to offer to the Android world!

Here’s why Samsung apps start getting One UI 6 support ahead of official release

Published

Samsung Device Care 13.8.01.31 update

After One UI 5.1, we started hearing a lot of news, leaks, and rumors about the upcoming One UI 6. Recently, Samsung has also started releasing One UI 6.0 support for stock apps, starting with the Calculator app.

Looking at all this, we can expect that Samsung will provide this support to more apps in the future too. But the question is, why is Samsung providing One UI 6.0 support to its stocks apps before the official release? If you are thinking that by getting their support, you will get some new features in your apps, then it is not only the reason.

Samsung One UI 6.0 support can also bring new features for apps, but the main reason for this is something else. But what? The answer is that Samsung is going to release a new One UI update in the coming weeks or months and the company aims to make its stock apps compatible with that accordingly. Once the app is supported, the app will not stop working or get crash whenever the company releases that update for the smartphone.

Samsung One UI 6 Apps

A recent report revealed that Samsung’s stable Android 14 update will be available in October. This is the same time frame as last year’s UI rollout, with the latest Galaxy S lineup being the first to secure it. Meanwhile, beta activity is seeing an early start if everything goes as planned by the internals.

Still, for the time being, we can consider this information as a pinch of salt as the company has not yet announced any official timeline for One UI 6.0.

Instead of Camera, Samsung should bring battery upgrade to flagships

Published

on

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra

Nowadays, smartphones are being heavily used for gaming and photography. Accordingly, phone makers are focussing more and more on upgrading the imaging capabilities and performance of chipsets. So why not, Samsung should now bring battery upgrade to Galaxy flagships.

Battery upgrade should be the next aim

The recently launched Galaxy S23 Ultra brings a high-profile 200-megapixel camera, allowing users to capture lossless shots, even when cropped. With great collaboration between hardware and software, the new Samsung flagships offer peace of mind to consumers, when it comes to battery life.

In addition to camera lovers, people prefer buying a smartphone, which offers great battery life without compromising features and power specifications. In the same way, Samsung is reportedly working, and there’s still room for improvements in flagships battery life.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra could come with a new battery technology inspired by electronic vehicles. The company is considering stacked battery technology for smartphones, which will reduce the size keeping the same mAh and enhanced lifespan.

Since the stacked battery tech could leave more gap inside the phone, Samsung might not think about increasing mAh on flagship phones. Instead, the company may use an additional vacant area for upgrading other hardware elements and better placement.

The S23 Ultra even defeated the years-old leader iPhone in terms of battery performance, thanks to the “Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy” processor. Exynos 2400 is reportedly coming to the S24 series in certain markets, which re-creates concern about the phone’s battery life and performance.

That said, Samsung should focus on increasing premium Galaxy phones’ battery life so users can use them longer with a single charge. 45W fast charging is doing quite well, just improvements to battery life would prove as cherry on the cake.
