Bought a galaxy s6 on May 29th 2015 ($700 value). Up until about 2 weeks ago, it was working perfectly fine. I am very careful with my phone, all phones I ve ever owned. Never dropped it in water before, never scratched the screen, nothing. So then how come when I went to turn it on after it was finished charging, it never did? I searched every way to force restart by holding down a combination of buttons, ex. hold volume down while holding power button, hold volume up while holding power button. Every combination. Even did those all when it was plugged in. Tried it numerous…

Both Apple and Samsung are releasing huge tablets in November. Apple s iPad Pro has a 12.9-inch screen and Samsung s Galaxy View has a 18.4-inch screen. The Galaxy View is so big it even got a handle on the back. ( Samsung ) Bigger is better, right? That s been Samsung s formula for success. The Korean conglomerate s introduction of its plus-sized Galaxy Note was so successful that other hardware manufacturers copied its lead. Not to be left behind, Apple finally caved to consumer s demands and also introduced an upsized iPhone 6. By Nov. 11, we ll finally get our hands on an…

The Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 is Samsung’s latest flagship mini-tablet. It targets the same segment of the market as Apple’s new iPad Mini 4. Packed with custom Samsung technologies and a new, refreshingly slick design, the Galaxy Tab S2 is one of the best Android tablets on the market. But its use of Samsung’s TouchWiz skin will delay how fast it will be updated to Android Marshmallow. Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 – Design Traditionally, Samsung has always struggled to compete with Apple in the design arena. However, in 2014 this all changed when Samsung unveiled its flagship Galaxy S6 smartphone…

Samsung s Galaxy S-series phones have traditionally been top performers in our smartphone Ratings. Our tests of the company s latest flagship phones, the Galaxy S6 and the S6 Edge (a curved-screened variant), have found them to be among the best phones you can buy. But surprisingly, these phones don t score as highly as their top-ranked predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy S 5. There is plenty to like about the S6 and S6 Edge. Both have large, ultra-sharp (1440p Quad HD) displays that present photos, videos, Web pages, and other objects with an incredible amount of detail (550 pixels…

The phrase, Apple of Android may not be suited to any other brand better than it does to Samsung Mobiles . The Korean giants might have started from beneath the shadows of the Cupertino legends in the smartphone space, but Samsung has gradually built an identity of its own thanks to innovation and strong push for marketing in the world of mobiles. Today Samsung sells dozens of smartphones in India at every price point a consumer demands. To gauge the popularity and size of the company, it is interesting to know that Samsung has an entire town by its name in Seoul called Samsung…

Tragically out of date, this tablet had issues from the get-go which modern tablets have mostly addressed. It s got no camera s, has only 480p video output, it s browser is hardly capable of properly putting up websites (especially web 2.0), it crashes incessantly, is quite sluggish even to move from screen to screen (this may be in part due to updates it could only partly keep up with) and is not compatible with most modern apps. That said, it can still do basic web searches and display webpages that aren t overly complicated. It s old YouTube app (which you can t delete) no…

The recent launches of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, the Google Pixel and Google Pixel XL late last year mean that the humble smartphone is destined to become faster, more powerful and even more versatile than ever before.

Samsung is looking to take on Apple s iPad mini with its just-released Samsung Galaxy Note 8.

There s not much to say about the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1, unfortunately. It s more or less unchanged from last year s 10-inch model, but now with a more conventional ARM SoC versus the Intel chip that was hit or miss last year. $349.99 (16GB) gets you a well-built, but unexceptional that delivers a consistent and reliable Android experience. Sound pretty mundane? That s because it is. Stepping down to the $300 Asus Transformer Pad TF103C gets you comparable performance with a bonus keyboard dock that productivity-minded folks will appreciate. Our favorite large screen tablet…
