Samsung has a history of targeting Apple products in its ads, especially in the United States and ahead of the launch of the iPhone 14 Series, the South Korean tech giant is back at it again. This time around, Samsung posted an ad called ‘Buckle up’ which mocks the upcoming iPhones for not having the top-of-the-line specs that the latest galaxy smartphones possess.

Nowadays, it’s pretty hard to find a smartphone that includes a power adapter inside the box thanks to a new environmental-friendly trend started by Apple with 2020’s iPhone 12 Series. Now, it looks like Samsung is following the same route and even going the extra mile by not including USB cables too.

It was only a matter of time before other brands start to follow Apple's footsteps in removing the charging adapters in the boxes. OPPO will be the next player to do so, as confirmed by the company's Vice President of Overseas Sales and Services, Billy Zhang during a group interview. This move will begin in the next 12 months.

Google officially launched Android 13 on 15 August 2022 but for now, it is only available on the company’s own Pixel lineup. As for other Android devices, they will only receive the update “later this year”, though many companies have already started rolling out Android 13 beta versions for their smartphones to customers, including Samsung with its popular Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S21 Series.

After launching the Blockchain Wallet, Samsung could be preparing to introduce a cryptocurrency exchange platform next year. The Korean tech giant has shown great interest in the crypto market, and this is just the second move in building its way up to the top in South Korea.

Samsung has today quietly released its latest offering in the affordable market segment, the Samsung Galaxy A04. The successor to the Galaxy A03, it retains some of the same aesthetics from the smartphone but with some refinements and a specs bump.

The Samsung Galaxy S23 series is expected to be released in early 2023 and based on reports coming from South Korea, it will be featuring an upgrade in the camera department. In fact, the main camera will be upgraded to feature a whopping 200MP, the first significant improvement in some 4 years.

Samsung strives to minimize environmental impact with its new 'Galaxy for the Planet' campaign, as the Korean tech giant lists out a few visionary goals to be achieved by 2025. The campaign will focus on reducing the company's environmental footprint and lessen resource depletion from production to disposal of its Galaxy products.

A new survey on mobile phone security habits and sentiments found that 49% of Android users are considering switching to Apple’s iPhone due to a ‘perceived superiority’ the latter has in security and privacy. The survey, conducted by Beyond Identity also found that 76% of Apple users feel more secure with iOS.

After being in beta for quite some time now, the final version of Android 13 has finally been released by Google today. Now available for download on Pixel devices, Google announced that the latest Android OS update will be coming to other supported Android devices “later this year”.
