Samsung would rather you forget that it mocked Apple for killing the headphone jack in a 2017 ad. Now that its Galaxy Note 10 phones have also done away with the headphone jack, Samsung appears to be quietly deleting an ad called Growing Up from its YouTube channels. The video shows an iPhone user getting increasingly …

Samsung’s new Galaxy Note 10 line is ditching its headphone jack. After years of being one of the last true holdouts, it seems that not even the mighty Samsung could continue to prolong the inevitable death of the beloved port.  Of course, with this switch, there is a bit of irony. As rumors continued to pick up steam that Apple …

Keeping your Android device safe from malware is difficult enough as it is — but it’s an entirely different threat when the harmful apps come with your device. Android’s open-source operating system allows for more affordable alternatives for millions of people, but it also opens the door for hackers to sneak in prepackaged malware. Preinstalled malware had been discovered on …

It’s official: Samsung’s Galaxy Note 10 has become the company’s first flagship phone to ship without a headphone jack, following other phones designed to work primarily with wireless Bluetooth headphones, such as the Apple iPhone and forthcoming Galaxy Fold. Samsung announced two main versions of the Note 10 at an event in New York today: the 6.3-inch Note 10 and the 6.8-inch …

Back in the day, having the smallest possible phone was a status symbol. Ben Stiller, playing the namesake Zoolander character in the popular 2001 movie, carried around a flip phone the size of a lighter to show how important he was.

Samsung’s Galaxy Fold could soon have new company. UBS analysts predict Apple could roll out a foldable product next year, though they estimate the company will likely release a folding iPad in 2021 before extending the technology to the iPhone, according to a Wednesday report by CNBC.  “This suggests that the industry will need to work to further reduce costs for …

The Galaxy Tab S6 is Samsung’s Android-based answer to the iPad Pro and Surface Pro (and the discontinued — but not discounted — Pixel Slate). As a premium tablet, the S6 has all the stuff you’d expect: A powerful new processor, a great 10.5-inch Super AMOLED display and quad speakers as well as a new pen and keyboard cover. But it’s …

Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy Watch Active 2 smartwatch just six months after the Galaxy Watch Active was released at the Galaxy S10 event in February, and two days before its expected Note 10 launch event. It’s not common to get a sequel in the same year as the original, but Samsung is bending the rules. Just like the company’s Note phone and Galaxy …

Samsung is hours away from launching its new Galaxy Note, rumored to be the Galaxy Note 10 with a 6.3-inch screen, and an even larger Note 10 Plus with a 6.8-inch display. Today, we may take the Note line for granted, but when the first Galaxy Note  launched in 2011, it was met with derision. In those days, the Note was …

If autonomous sensory meridian response, or ASMR, is your thing, Apple added four videos to its “Shot on iPhone” YouTube series on Wednesday. The tech giant uploaded videos titled Tapping; Scraping; Crunching; and Whispering from Ghost Forest, all between 6 and 10 minutes long.
