Samsung Eclipsa Audio

Samsung has teamed up with Google to create Eclipsa Audio, which brings stunning 3D sound to your TV and soundbars. This new audio technology was introduced at CES 2025 in Las Vegas, and it’s made to give viewers an immersive, lifelike sound experience while watching their favorite shows and movies.

In 2023, Samsung and Google helped develop a new audio format called the Immersive Audio Model and Formats (IAMF). It became the new standard for 3D audio.

Eclipsa Audio establishes a universal standard for 3D audio across various platforms. It ensures that content creators can produce sound that adapts seamlessly to different output devices, including home theater systems, gaming consoles, and mobile devices.

By rendering sound from multiple directions – front, back, above, and below, Eclipsa Audio creates a dynamic, multidimensional listening experience that feels natural and immersive.

Traditionally, 3D audio needs multiple surround speakers to work properly, but most people only have a TV and a soundbar. Eclipsa Audio solves this by analyzing the sound and adjusting it for any setup to give you the best sound experience possible in your living room.

This technology is open-source, which means content creators can use it to add 3D sound without paying extra fees. This makes it easier for people to create and enjoy high-quality sound on any device.

Samsung is rolling out Eclipsa Audio on its 2025 TV models, from the affordable Crystal UHD series to the top-tier Neo QLED 8K TVs. When paired with a soundbar, the technology offers even richer, more powerful 3D sound, which makes TV watching more immersive than ever before.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge

In January, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S25, S25+ and S25 Ultra but saved the S25 Edge for a later release without revealing much about its design, and we now have 4 details about this device that are confirmed.

This phone is currently ruling over a discussion about slim devices, and shows Samsung’s chase to offer a fresh innovation to consumers. Though, the S25 series consists of three options with different display sizes, the S25 Edge aims to offer ease of access.

The future of this phone hinges on its success, and eventually make a place in the main lineup. It’s also a possibility that the phone will oust the Plus variant, but we don’t Samsung’s plans for this device.

Meanwhile, the Korean phone maker has made some design upgrades to the Galaxy S25 Edge that looks compelling. These details are based on past leaks about renders, specifications and dummy models.

Display

Edge will bring a flat 6.6-6.7 screen, identical to S25 Plus. It features a hole punch to house a selfie camera. The bezels are tiny and expand the view on all sides.

Thin

The phone is all about its slim outlook, standing at only 5.84 mm. This is way thinner than the standard S25 with 7.2 mm thickness. This thin appearance will also contribute to a lighter and easy to hold design. This is missing from modern devices and Galaxy phones aren’t exception, but S25 Edge could make a big difference.

Camera

The phone has a vertical camera system inside a large pill shape bump consisting of an LED flash.

Titanium

The slim design will be protected by the Titanium frame, which we didn’t expect in the first place. With this addition, the phone will offer three colors including an all-black version.

Launch Date

Samsung has not announced a launch date for the S25 edge, but it is expected to launch in April.

Conclusion

The phone comes with reworked components that show Samsung’s extra effort to minimize size and space inside the structure. That said, the S25 Edge shows a lot of promises, but we only give a verdict on its ease of access when the device makes an official debut.

Here’s how Samsung is recycling used batteries to power Galaxy S25

Published

By

Samsung has introduced a new way to reuse old smartphones in its Circular Battery Supply Chain. This process allows materials from used Galaxy phones to be turned into resources for new devices. The Galaxy S25 is the first phone to use this recycling system.

Every year, Samsung collects about 200 tons of waste battery material at its factory in Vietnam. However, Vietnam didn’t have the tools to recycle these materials effectively.

To solve this, Samsung worked with other companies to create a system that extracts cobalt, a key material for batteries, from old Galaxy phones. This recycled cobalt is then used to make new batteries for the Galaxy S25.

The process begins by gathering old Galaxy smartphones and taking out their batteries. These batteries are shredded into a fine powder called “black mass.” This powder is then processed to get cobalt, which is important for making batteries work properly.

Samsung has successfully recycled over 90% of the cobalt from old batteries using the Circular Battery Supply Chain. In fact, half of the cobalt in the Galaxy S25 comes from recycled materials.

This helps reduce the need for mining new resources and supports Samsung’s aim of being more environmentally friendly. The company worked hard to ensure the system is safe and follows all environmental regulations.

Samsung’s Circular Battery Supply Chain is a big step forward in creating sustainable products. The company plans to expand this recycling process to include other materials, like lithium, in the future.

With the Galaxy S25, Samsung is showing how technology can be both high-quality and eco-friendly. The company will use this technology in future devices too.
