It’s no secret that Samsung is betting big on Virtual Reality (VR) and another effort to promote the technology is Bedtime VR Stories app. The app is intended for parents narrating bedtime stories to children, however, this time, it’s done through technology, making the location of the parent and the child irrelevant. As you can […]

Pre-orders for the Sony Xperia X are already live across third-party retailers, as previously reported. However, we have been waiting for Sony Mobile to open up their own pre-orders across Europe, particularly as some offers have been promised. Whilst we still await Sony to open its own pre-orders across most European regions, it looks like […]

While we were waiting for the Galaxy J5 (2016) and Galaxy J7 (2016) to launch in European markets, Samsung has gone ahead and launched a Galaxy J5 (2016) Black Edition in France. The device is listed on Amazon France for €275.69 (roughly $315), and as its name suggests, a full black color tone runs across the […]

Independent UK-based smartphone retailer, Carphone Warehouse, has exclusively launched a Silver Titanium variant of the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge on its online store.

Mobile phone cases aren’t a new thing. In fact, they are one of the most popular smartphone accessories.

It has been more than a […]

The Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge are water-resistant, because there’s no cure for clumsy. At IP68, the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge can handle more than a little bit of water and dust.

Samsung’s glass and metal design is beautiful, but it has been lamented for being a huge fingerprint magnet. That’s a problem that didn’t go away with the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge, and it looks like there’s another issue with the design of Samsung’s newest flagship smartphones – the home button/fingerprint sensor on these […]

Sony may have some new handsets on the horizon targeting the lower mid-range. Two new model numbers have been revealed by the GFXBench benchmark, outing the Sony F3216 and F3311.
