In just a few more days, we'll get to see a bunch of highly-anticipated new Samsung products at the Unpacked event that is scheduled to happen on 5 August. Among all the products, the star is no doubt the Galaxy Note 20 series which is going to bring some new upgrades. Now, the pricing of the devices from the series has been leaked again and we're hoping that is not the final one.

Most of you guys might have freaked out a little when the news about Samsung not including chargers in the box came out earlier. However, we are here to announce that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 20 will come with a charger in the box! It's sad that we're actually discussing this.

Last week, Samsung shared their vision on the development of 6G and they are confident that the communication technology can enter massive commercialization around 2030. Although there's still a long time for us to enter the era of 6G (as we haven't even fully stepped into the era of 5G yet!), many ambitious companies have already started to focus on the development. Now, it appears that MediaTek will be joining the squad as well by embarking on the 6G journey.

Based on a statement by @universeice on the user’s Twitter account, it seems that Samsung might need to include a “Do Not Eat” logo along with the Samsung Galaxy Buds X. This is likely because the aforementioned earbuds are in the shape of a bean, which might look like a tasty candy to some people.

Based on a statement by sammobile.com, it seems that Samsung will be manufacturing Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 875G and Snapdragon 735G chipsets using their 5nm EUV manufacturing process. With that said, our source mentioned that the transistors on the 5nm process are about 25% smaller compared to 7nm which allows manufacturers to pack more transistors on the chip.

The Samsung Galaxy A series may not as be as popular as the Galaxy S and Note series, but the phone lineup is certainly popular with many countries including Malaysia because of its affordability and price. In fact, the Galaxy A51 was the most shipped Android phone of Q1 2020 and a new report just came in that selected devices from the lineup could start using Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) next year. 

Other than a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset, the Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan Edition (or Lite) is expected to come with other powerful features as well while having an interesting price. Today, a famous tipster from Twitter has revealed other tech specs of the device, hinting at a 120Hz refresh rate screen. 

Although this is the era of 5G, the technology hasn't been fully adopted by most of the major countries yet. As 5G is still on its way to global domination, Samsung has already started to focus on developing the next-generation 6G network. Today, things are getting real as they have shared their vision on 6G in black-and-white with the public.

Upon reading the title of this news, you must be thinking "why". But it seems that Apple had to pay Samsung a nice chunk of money as a penalty. Sources claim that Apple had to pay out a hefty USD 950 million (~RM4.06 billion) for not buying enough OLED panels in the Q2 of 2020.
