GalaxyS5 , News / November 28, 2013

Galaxy S5 Rumor Says Release in 2014 We’ve got an awesome new rumor for you today regarding the Galaxy S5, and it’s only been running around the mill for a few hours now. Apparently, according to the International Business Times, someone leaked a brand new release date for the Galaxy S5. According to the report, the Galaxy S5 release date rumor claims that Samsung will be manufacturing the device in early January 2014 with its release scheduled for sometime in March 2014 – and possibly as late as April. While this is certainly welcome news, the dates don’t seem to track with what was previously rumored. Previous Galaxy S5 Release Date Rumors According to previous reports, the Galaxy S5 had a potential release date for the Consumer Electronics Show and Mobile World Congress. However, we are wondering if those previous rumored reports didn’t mix up the “announcement date” with the “release date,” since they are two separate things.  Often, a company will announce that it has a prototype and is planning to release a specific device weeks, and sometimes months, before the device is actually manufactured or available for sale. We think that his is a possibility given the time…

Galaxy S5 Could Have Better Specs Than We Thought We’ve got a rumor hot off the mill this morning – and it’s something we told you about some weeks ago. Do you remember when we were talking about the possibility that Samsung would ditch its plastic body and chassis in favor of a metal one for the Galaxy S5? Well, this rumor might turn out to be true after all. Leaked Metal Chassis Photos According to a International Business Times report via NowhereElse.fr, Samsung is said to be trashing the usual plastic chassis in favor of a metal chassis for an upcoming device.  See all of the metal chassis photos at NowhereElse.fr.  Though the author of the NowhereElse.fr report mentions (via Google Translate) that the leak said he is an employee of a firm that contracts with Samsung to make the parts, the leak also claimed that Samsung asked his firm to: “Produce an aluminum frame designed to equip one of its future smartphones without specifying which model it was all about.” Apparently, the frame is scheduled to make its debut in February of 2014 – but whether it will be accompanied by a metal case wasn’t mentioned. If the…

Is Galaxy S5 Coming on Black Friday?

Fluctuating Galaxy S4 Black Friday Pricing Says Maybe… Today, we’ve got a serious release date rumor that’s for you. Having made its way around the mill only for a day or so, we’re not sure if this will grow legs or not, but we really, really hope it does. Does Galaxy S4 Black Friday Price Mean S5 is on the Way? RadioShack is selling the Galaxy S4 at $50. We checked to be sure, and it’s true. Galaxy S4 is available at $49 starting November 28. Currently, though, those who want a Galaxy S4 can use the Trade & Save program to buy it – and it might wind up a bit cheaper than buying it on black Friday. There’s a catch, though. Calling it Trade & Save, RadioShack requires those who want to get the lowered pricing to bring in a smartphone that works and trade it for the Galaxy S4 and depending on the trade’s condition, you could pay anything from $0 to $99. Testing the deal, the Trade & Save offered us $71.45 towards a purchase for a Sprint Galaxy S3 32 GB that powers up, is in perfect working condition, and is complete with charger. However,…

Rumor: Will Galaxy S5 Get a Wraparound Display?
GalaxyS5 , News , smart phones / November 17, 2013

Galaxy S5 Might Get Wraparound & 2014 Release Date Today we have two rumors that are once again circling the mills. Today’s latest rumors come to us courtesy of Bloomberg via the International Business Times, and notes that in an effort to beat Apple to the punch, Samsung is going to be releasing a Galaxy S5 with an amazing wraparound display. While the device wasn’t mentioned by name, speculation has it that it could be the Galaxy S5 that gets it since Samsung already has the technology, but the comapny put off adding it to the Galaxy S4 and Note III. That article also confirmed something we’ve been saying for a while – the Galaxy S5 will be released in early 2014. Galaxy S5 Release Date Rumor Fortunately, for us, that means that these most recent Galaxy S5 rumors tend to reiterate what we have said previously. Samsung will apparently be releasing the Galaxy S5 flagship smartphone sometime in early 2014, just as we said might happen. This news still points to the Galaxy S5’s release coming to either the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show or the 2014 Mobile World Congress conferences, both of which are held in January each year….

Confirmed: Galaxy S5 to Get ISOCELL   Today, instead of a Galaxy S5 rumor, we’ve got a couple of confirmations for you via Samsung. The first was  a Samsung press release that confirmed some of the Galaxy S5 rumors we’ve brought you over the last two months. More specifically, Samsung Tomorrow, the Samsung Global news site, has confirmed that the company’s own ISOCELL CMOS image sensors are for real. While we pretty much knew this already, what we had not yet confirmed was the use of these sensors on the Galaxy S5, but today that rumor has left the mill and made its way to the “confirmed” category. Galaxy S5 to Get 16-MP Camera According to the International Business Times, Samsung announced that the company was working on 16-megapixel technology for upcoming devices, though the IBT noted that that every Samsung smartphone released starting 2014 – and beyond – will sport no less than a 16-megapixel camera utilizing the ISOCELL sensors. According to the Samsung press release, the ISOCELL technology works by increasing a camera’s sensitivity to light, allowing for the camera’s sensors to take control of the way the camera absorbs electrons. Samsung says that this process essentially results…

News , smart phones , Tips Corner / November 10, 2013

Galaxy S5 at MWC or CES – You Be the Judge With all of the different Galaxy S5 release date rumors that have made it through the mill so far, is it any wonder that the newest of them are saying that Samsung could possibly announce the highly anticipated device’s release date at the up and coming Mobile World Congress in Spain January 2014? An interesting rumor to say the least, since previous rumors we heard (and mentioned here) noted that it was highly likely for the still-rumored device to release at the up and coming Consumer Electronics Show in January of 2014. Will Galaxy S5 be at Mobile World Congress? For those who aren’t familiar, the Mobile World Congress is an annual event that features speakers, exhibitions, and a ton of forums, workshops, and other events regarding the worldwide mobile industry. Last year’s MWC featured 40 keynote speakers who talked about the current state of the mobile industry. Each speaker announced an important change or addition to each respective company’ services and while it is a bit early to determine whether Samsung will indeed attend the MWC 2014, the likelihood is high that he Korean-based Smartphone company will show…
