Galaxy S22: Is Samsung's iPhone x Google Pixel Frankenstein bringing the best of Apple and Android?

Back in February, Apple introduced "Tap to Pay," a new feature that allows a merchant with an iPhone to accept payment for a product or a service from Apple Pay, credit cards, or digital wallets without requiring that the merchant use any other hardware besides the iPhone. "Tap to Pay" is rolling out throughout all U.S.-based Apple Stores from coast to coast after it debuted last week at the Apple Park Visitor Center.

While traditionally Apple has made some pretty important changes to its most popular iPhone every year, the upcoming iPhone 14 actually shapes up as much less than previous upgrades: for starters, it is rumored to come with the very same chip used in the previous iPhone 13 model. Apple is preparing to debut a new chip, but it will only be used in the iPhone 14 Pro series devices.

Memorial Day this year is on Monday, May 30. On this day, we remember and honor the brave people who lost their lives while serving in the American military. Leading up to the day that US peace and freedom is celebrated, many retailers slash their prices on many products to contribute to the festivities. Best Buy is currently running a hot sale for Memorial Day, and the generous deals range from Apple products, to the latest Samsung Galaxy phones, as well as tablets and headphones: pretty much anything you would want.

Samsung officially unveiled its humongous 200MP camera sensor last year. The ISOCELL HP1 promised a lot with its all-new ChameleonCell technology and massive pixel count but we’re yet to see a device with this sensor onboard. Rumor has it that Motorola will launch the Frontier model in July, sporting...

It seems Apple is planning to make the same amount of iPhones in 2022 as it did in 2021, according to a new supply chain report: pretty much, around 20 million fewer than what analysts had expected. AppleInsider now reports that despite the iPhone being the only smartphone to get a sales rise in the first quarter of this year, Cupertino won't be making more iPhone orders.

As many of you may have probably heard, back in March of this year, some cities in China were under lockdown. Apple has been diversifying its production, but still some of its main factories are located in China. Now, AppleInsider reports that it seems at least one model from the iPhone 14 series is weeks behind schedule because of the lockdowns.

Motorola continues to flood the market with entry-level and mid-range phones, although not at the same pace as Samsung. The most recent device introduced by the US-based company is an affordable Android phone equipped with a MediaTek processor, the Moto E32s. Despite the fact that it’s an entry-level handset, the...

It's no secret that Apple has very strict rules regarding its App Store. However, while these restrictions could make app developers' lives more difficult, they are often beneficial to us, the users. One such useful policy is the Account Deletion rule, which requires applications that allow you to create an account to also let you delete it. In January, Apple delayed the implementation of this requirement and pushed it back to June 30, 2022.

It's definitely a little odd to talk about the potential delays of a handset family that's still several months away from an official announcement, but let's be honest here, we all know Apple is targeting a September release for the highly anticipated and oft-leaked iPhone 14 quartet. That means that...

There has been speculation that due to the chip shortage, Apple will use different chipsets for the non-Pro iPhone 14 models and the iPhone 14 Pro handsets to be unveiled this coming September. Typically, Apple uses the same chip for all of the high-end iPhone models it produces during a single year. But the pandemic has led to a shortage of chips. Had this been a normal year, Apple would have used the A16 Bionic for all four iPhone 14 models.

Both the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro have been available for seven months and through the Google Store, the phones have been offered unlocked and configured for Verizon and Fi. Those on AT&T could order an unlocked version but it didn't come with a compatible SIM card and couldn't be financed using AT&T's 0% 36-month financing (your financing option was to pay over 24 months instead). However, starting Thursday the Google Store started listing AT&T versions of the Pixel 6 series models right alongside Verizon and Fi.

We’ve already seen demos of a "text-to-image" engine scattered across the Internet — an algorithm called "DALL·E" that’s able to accurately understand a string of words and digitally paint whatever was requested. Well, little did we know — the Google Brain team, which works specifically on...

Samsung is always launching new phones and most of the time we learn about these before they even get announced. Today we’ll be talking about Samsung Galaxy M13, a phone that’s not yet been made official, yet we already know what it looks like and some of its specs.

A display that refresh at 90Hz or 120Hz have become something of a standard feature on flagship smartphones. Last year's iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max were Apple's first smartphones to feature 120Hz screens, and a fresh rumor indicates that the forthcoming iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max will offer a better implementation of the tech which may enable the always-on display functionality.

Back in March, we reported that Google is working on a split screen Gboard virtual keyboard for larger and foldable displays. At the time, the giveaway was a toggle on a Gboard beta (version 11.5.05.427194903) that included a very interesting description, reading "Split layout to include duplicate keys that can be toggled on or off."

The next Samsung 5G phone has the potential of being its cheapest yet. After launching the entry-level Galaxy A23 in Europe a few months ago, Samsung now plans to introduce a 5G version of the phone. According to GalaxyClub, the Galaxy A23 5G is real and should hit European stores...

It's 10 years ago… Android 4 and iOS 6 on the iPhone 5 are the current thing, but screw them, because I was in love with Windows Phone. And if you wanted a Windows Phone, you had to buy a Nokia Lumia. It's hard to believe Android and iOS...

Released around nine months ago at a reasonable starting price of $250 with a brand-new software platform and a decidedly robust set of hardware specifications in tow, the non-Classic Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 has incredibly received more discounts than one can count on their fingers and toes in both new and refurbished condition.

You might remember that it was back in March when we told you that HTC was planning to release its first flagship phone in three years. At one time, HTC was about as bright a star in the industry as a company could be creating such great phones as the Touch Diamond, the Nexus One, the HTC One (M7), and more. Soon, the innovation stopped and so did the profits.

Welcome to the battle of the foldables! Once a technological peculiarity, now these gadgets have earned their place at retail stores, and most importantly - in people’s pockets. There aren’t that many models out there, to be honest, and when it comes to form factor, there are two, basically....
