Battery is a very important thing on a smart phone. Since the phone consumes a lot of power, a good battery capacity is needed. Moreover, on removable batteries, a long battery life is preferred. The same thing applies to non-removable ones. Since the non-removable batteries make up the phone’s life as well, it’s best that they have longer life. Battery life has become something really essential to a smart phone’s specs. However, it seems that we have found the solution to battery life with Samsung.

MIT – Massachusetts Institute of Technology – has announced on August 18 that they  have found a way to increase battery life to unlimited use. The institute is in collaboration with Samsung, so maybe the new kind of battery will be used on Samsung phones in the future.

Maybe Samsung Galaxy S7 or Note 6 battery will have unlimited life

The solution is that they will replace the liquid sustance in the battery with solid material. This way the liquid substance will not be degenerate, making the battery capacity decrease. As the solid material takes place, there will be no capacity decrease after charges. We can recharge the battery for hundreds or thousands of times without worrying about it dying. And it means the battery has nearly unlimited use.

Moreover, MIT stated that this battery is more resistant to temperature and shock. It even is not flammable since there is no such substance to burn. The new kind of battery also reduces costs, while still being efficient and safe. Since there are many accidents with battery, the new one would give a lot of improvements in life.

We do not know when this unlimited battery will come into real production, but this is a huge step forward in the technology world. Not just smart phones, we can integrate this battery on many electronic devices as well. When that time comes, there will be a new era for us.

IFA 2015, Europe’s largest electronics show, is coming near. As smart phone producers have unveiled many flagships this year, what’s left for IFA 2015? In this article, we bring you the set of products that will be introduced at this year IFA. Not only smart phones, but also other devices are on the list. Let us see what has in store for us, and the technology world.

Top 5 devices at IFA this year

1. Sony Xperia Z5, Z5 Compact & Z5 Ultra

   
   As rumours stated, Sony will release Sony Xperia Z5 and its other variants at this year IFA. The news has been going on for quite some time. Moreover, Sony Xperia Z5 is also featured in the next 007 movie. It seems Sony wants to save its smart phone sales by releasing three flagships at hand.

2. LG G Pro & LG G4 Pro

   
   Earlier this year, LG released its high end LG G4. Therefore, at IFA 2015, maybe the Pro versions will be out. LG G4 is considered the best among camera smart phones. Therefore, these LG G Pro & LG G4 Pro may be as good.

3. Samsung Galaxy Edge tablet

   
   
   Recently there is a rumour about an Edge tablet from Samsung. It seems the company wants to sell more unique Edge screen devices apart from Samsung Galaxy Note Edge, S6 Edge & S6 Edge+. Does it have to do with the mysteria 18.4” tablet?

4. Huawei Mate 7 S

   
   
   Huawei also have a busy year. For this IFA, Huawei teases a curved screen device with the word Mate S. Many people give their thoughts that it will be called Huawei Mate 7s, instead of Huawei Mate 8. Moreover, Huawei is also working on Nexus 6, a project with Google.

5. Microsoft Lumia 940 & 940XL

   
   Microsoft is also preparing for IFA 2015. This year, Microsoft will likely introduce their new flagships – Lumia 940 & 940XL, which are attracting a lot of attention.

From the earlier days of smart phones, we have experience IPS LCD, OLED, Super AMOLED screens with low quality to HD, FHD, QHD and even 4k display. However, technology does not stop at that. Recently, Samsung has registered their 3D movie screen. With this news, it means that we would have a smart phone that can display holographic images soon. Let’s take a look at the patent for Samsung hologram phone.

We will likely get a 3D movie screen on smart phones in the future

Although Samsung has filed this patent for holographic smart phone since Q3 2014, this has just recently been published.

The smart phone will not produce full holographic images though. Only a part of it will display the images. Moreover, as Samsung hologram phone will have the same body design as a normal phone, the 3D viewing will be limited.

Samsung hologram phone design idea

According to the picture, there will be an extra glass panel put on the screen. A light emission device will be placed under. Through the extra glass panel, 3D images will be shown. Therefore, we can experience 3D viewing without the use of any supported devices.

This glass panel will be thicker than any smart phone screens in the current market place. However, Samsung stated that holographic images on this kind of smart phone will be as realistic as ever. You will feel as if you’re looking at a real object.

Samsung does not reveal any technology regarding producing the glass panel. Nevertheless, according to Samsung, the smart phone does not just display 3D movie or contents, but also apps icons or text in a different way than normal.

Although the hologram field created by this smart phone is limited, it is great to know that Samsung is working on it. We need more and more unique devices to strengthen our technology. Moreover, imagination and creativity are what keep our world moving. Therefore, you can look forward to this Samsung hologram phone in the future.

A few days ago, Samsung held a press conference in New York to release their latest generation of flagship: Galaxy Note 5.

As previously announced, the Galaxy Note 5 comes with 5.7 inch 2K display and a beautiful Samsung 16MP rear camera. The device is powered by strong 4GB RAM and a powerful Samsung’s Exynos 7420 chipset that runs on quad-core 2.1GHz processor. The Samsung Galaxy Note 5 runs on Android 5.1 system and 3,000 mAH battery capacity.

Also released at the same time with the Galaxy Note 5 is the Galaxy S6 Edge+ with a curved screen and updated specs from the previous Galaxy S6 Edge

Coming with 5.7 but “only” equipped with 3,000 mAH battery, many doubt that this is not enough to power the Galaxy Note 5. Actually, despite reputation about high-quality camera sensors, Samsung products usually receive so-so feed backs about battery life.

But wait. Take a look at this Galaxy Note 5 battery test result before judging the 3,000 mAH of upcoming Galaxy Note 5 battery

In the figure, you can see 11 devices being shown with real life test results on how long each can last.  Topping the list is Motorola Droid Turbo with last 10h and 42 mins, followed by Sony Xperia Z3 with 9 hours and 29 mins of battery life. Surprisingly, contrast to what many think, Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ and Galaxy Note 5 battery life are as long as 9 hours 29 minutes and 9 hour 11 minutes respectively. Both Galaxy S6 Edge+ and Galaxy Note 5 battery life are ranked excellent. To give you a better sense of comparison, the LG G4, while also packs 3,000 mAH, ranked last on the list with only 6 hours and 6 minutes of battery life.

 

Now let’s move to the second criterion of Galaxy Note 5 battery: charging time. Battery charging time is also one an important element users care about when using a device, as it can make life much more or less convenient.

 

From the second figure, we can see that Asus Zenfone 2 is leading with only 58 minutes to fully charge the battery. Ranked as second best, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 battery only needs 81 minutes to go up to 100% full. This is even less than 1 hour and a half, and is quite idea for any busy users.

After a while being at the center of attention, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 has currently received negative comments about when announced the lack of microSD card slot. And when this result about Galaxy Note 5 battery life and charging is unveiled, we hope that it can somehow make up for the previous disappointment.

Like most devices, Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and S6 Edge+ have their own pros and cons, which make them different from others and contribute to the reasons why users choose this device instead of others.

 

Nowadays, many people will stick with Samsung Exynos for the most powerful chipset series. Even Qualcomm Snapdragon has a hard time persuading users to believe they have solved the heating issues on their chipset. However, as mobile manufacturers recently turn to the trend of producing chipsets on their own, more and more prominent chipsets come to the market. Most notably, Huawei Kirin 950, which beats Samsung Galaxy Note 5’s Exynos 7420 on every benchmark tests, would become the next best chipset.

Huawei Kirin 950 is now the most powerful chipset, beating the favorable Exynos 7420.

Huawei Kirin 950 full specs leak on benchmark

Under the Geekbench benchmark test, Huawei Kirin 950 has a quad core Cortex –A72 with 2.4Ghz clockspeed & quad core Cortex-A57. Moreover, Huawei Kirin 950 also supports RAM LPDDR4 & camera up to 42MP. It seems if we have Kirin 950 in our phone, our camera can be a superb photoshooter.

Kirin 950 will support camera up to 42MP

Additionally, the benchmark test also reveals scores for single core and multitasking on this chipset. It scores 1909 points for single core test and 6096 points for multitasking test. This is the proof that Kirin is the top chipset right now. Even Exynos 7420 only scores 1486 points on single and 4970 points on multitasking test.

Samsung Galaxy S6 also sports the powerful Exynos 7420

This time of the year seems to be a mad competition between chipsets, with Xiaomi’s new chipset, Mediatek Helio X30, Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, and even the next Apple chip will be coming to the market. Which chipset will be the best? The answer does not lie in the chipset itself, but the phone it will be equipped in. If the phone has a well-rounded customization with its specs, then the chipset will win. If the phone is just another normal device, the chipset will not save anything. Therefore, until now nothing can really be said yet.

Though this chipset is not released yet, we hope there will be a generation of chipsets that cost low and performs significantly. Moreover, it would be marvelous if more and more great devices such as Asus Zenfone 2 and its rivals to come to the market.

Meanwhile, you can check out which phones sport the (in)famous Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 here.

 

While tech geeks and smartphone forums are busy these days discussing about newly-launched fancy smartphones (like the Galaxy Note 5), Samsung outed another device that is really worth a look at: a new Samsung flip smartphone that runs Android and Snapdragon 808.

The device was announced a month earlier on TEENA, but made official yesterday, August 14 with the name Samsung G9198.

G9198: new Samsung flip smartphone to set a new trend?

Well, if you have been following Samsung’s movements lately, we bet you will be asking by now: Why Snapdragon. Since the Korean company have always tended to be more attached to their own Exynos chips on recent devices, this Snapdragon-based Samsung flip smartphone may makes many curious.

Let’s dig a bit more into details of the newly released Samsung flip smartphone – G9198 to see what is being introduced this time.

In the past, flip phones used to be very popular. However, they carried only simple specs and targeted to make phone calls and text messages only. The story is definitely different nowadays.

Samsung flip smartphone G9198 specs

Samsung G9198 flip smartphone features a handy 3.9” display with Super AMOLED with a resolution of 1280 x 768. The device is powered by 2GB of RAM (yes, even more than an iPhone) with 16GB storage and microSD card slot.

Samsung G9198 flip smartphone cameras are good too, as if it is the signature Samsung want to keep for their future devices: 16MP rear camera and a decent 5 or 6MP front snapper. There is also a 2020 mAH battery housed in the device, which reportedly can last to 189 hours on standby mode.

Samsung flip smartphone G9198: price, release and availability

Please keep in mind that all the specs we know for now, although reliable, is not finalized yet. Samsung may still have small changes for their flip phone until the official launch date. For now, Samsung flip smartphone G9198 price is not revealed yet. And the device is targeted for the Chinese market only. We will see if this comes to international markets one day. Excited to see Samsung flip smartphone G9198 Philippines soon, anyone?

 

As Samsung Galaxy Note 5 will be unveiled tonight, we hope it will be a big satisfaction to mobile technology world. However, even if the new Note is coming, will it really be the best around ? Since  information from even leaked and official sources suggest that Samsung Galaxy Note 5 battery is around 3000mAh, this is quite a trouble. Therefore, unless there is really hidden power within Samsung Galaxy Note 5, Galaxy Note 4 will still be the most favorite Note. Let’s see how these two are when placed against each other. Yes, this is an article about Samsung Galaxy Note 5 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4.

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4 specs

Design

For design, we can be assured that both devices are beautiful. Samsung Galaxy Note 5 design is of course, similar from its predecessor. While Samsung Galaxy Note 4 display is a tad bigger ( 5.7’’ vs 5.67’’), they look almost the same with no big changes. However, many people have voiced their bias towards Note 4.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 display, however, has higher pixel density than Note 4.

Hardware

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 sports a new Exynos chipset with octa core 1.5GHz processor, while Note 4 only has a quad core 2.7GHz. Therefore, Note 5 is somewhat faster than Note 4. Moreover, it has 4GB RAM instead of 3GB RAM on Note 4.

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 also has explicitly more internal storage options, since it has 64GB and more variants. However, its weak point is that Note 5 does not support microSD card originally (only the DUAL SIM version will). Therefore, if microSD is important to you, even the 32GB Note 4 wins.

The most important thing is that Samsung Galaxy Note 5 battery houses only 3000mAh, while its predecessor has 3220mAh already. Even though it’s a bit faster and more powerful handset, Note 5 is a little disappointing in energy. Additionally, the battery on Note 4 is removable, which is a plus for people who want to insert something with higher capacity. Samsung Galaxy Note 4 battery saving modes and quick charge also win over.

Camera

Their main cameras have the same resolution of 16MP; however, Note 4’s front camera is only 4MP, which is, quite less appealing than that of Note 5 (5MP). Nevertheless, we have to test the camera when Note 5 is released first to know the different, so let’s say this is a tie.

Overall, Samsung Galaxy Note 4 will be a better choice over Samsung Galaxy Note 5 if the latter does not have any hidden , significant features. As Note 5 will be unveiled tonight, we will have a more detailed look at its specs. Samsung Galaxy Note 5 price and availability will also be out tonight, so stay connected.

Tonight, Samsung  will announce Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+, which are the hottest devices nowadays. However, as the attention is drawned to these latest flagships, some people still prefer the old days of Samsung devices. Therefore, in this article, Price Pony brings you the most popular, hottest Samsung devices over the decades.

8 hottest Samsung devices over the years

1. Samsung X830

   Released in 2006, Samsung X830 was popular because of its ability to flip its case around. That feature was totally hot at the time. At the first glance, this phone looks like an mp3 player. Moreover, its keyboard has just 2 columns, instead of 3 on other phones at the same time.

2. Samsung SGH –i607 Blackjack

   Released when Blackberry was still the hottest ever with its qwerty keyboard, Samsung Blackjack was the first Samsung smart phone with qwerty keyboard. This smart phone was awarded “the best hardware” prize at that time also.

3. Samsung Cleo/Gloss/Strut
   With its unusual square design, Samsung Cleo/Gloss/ Strut looked very interesting to many users. This flip phone also has a qwerty keyboard in addition to its cutesy appearance.

4. Samsung G810

   
   At the time of 2008, when smart phone camera was still not as advanced as they are today, Samsung G810 was very appealing. Samsung G810 camera has the resolution of 5MP, which was super impressive. Moreover, it has Xenon flash and optical zoom, a feature that only a few smart phones of today have.

5. Samsung Instinct

   One of the first iPhone rival, this smart phone has a big screen and the same design that many smart phone designs nowadays are based on. However, there are not many apps on Samsung Instinct.

6. Samsung Galaxy Note 1

   Samsung Galaxy Note 1 display was impressive at the time because of its 5.3” screen. Though this kind of size has been very popular and not so “hot” anymore, Samsung Galaxy Note 1 was the device that brought the Note series to flagship level.

7. Samsung Galaxy Note Edge

   Released last year as the first edge screen device, Samsung Galaxy Note Edge has been popular from then. Samsung Galaxy Note Edge display has small apps on its edge screen for many easy viewing.

8. Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

   Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge was the flagship last year, and of course, with edge screen on both sides. Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge design is beautiful, and its specs are well-rounded.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 is official now! Whether it is a good news for those who are waiting for flagships that run on Snapdragon 820 like Xiaomi Mi5, we shall see. However, until now, Snapdragon 820 will still be the choice on high end devices. As long as Qualcomm adjusts its heating issue on the chipsets, and powers them up, Snapdragon is still the real deal.

Snapdragon 820 will be equipped on Xiaomi Mi5

Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 official information

As Snapdragon 820 will definitely be affected by the chipset series’ infamous heating problems, will it rise on top during the time when chipsets are being produced by mobile manufacturers too?

The first improvement on Snapdragon 820 is that it will use 64-bit Kryo cores instead of Cortex. Moreover, Adreno 530 GPU, the newest of the series, will support Open GL 3.1 and new API Vulcan. Qualcomm states that these technologies will boost the performance up to 40%.

Snapdragon 820 may be produced with the 14nm or 16nm process like the new Apple chip, which will upgrade the video recording smart phones up to 4k at 60fps. Additionally, 4k video could be streaming online at the speed of 30fps. This seems a very interesting new technology.

The most notable feature of Snapdragon 820 is the IPS technology camera, which supports new camera techniques and autofocus. Additionally, it enhances photo shooting in low light environment and an added optical zoom instead of digital zoom. Photo quality will be higher and higher.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 will support dual main cameras like its predecessor Snapdragon 810 does, but these camera can be different in aperture. However, will dual cameras make smart phones thicker?

Although these new official information give us a more detailed look at Snapdragon 820, we still don’t know how it will spar against new chipset producers. As Samsung Exynos has been far superior in many people’s minds, will Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 still rise?

August is a month for flagships, yes. A lot of new phones coming out already and August 13, tomorrow, will be the unveiling of the ever trending Samsung Galaxy Note 5 and Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+. Let us see, with so many phones being released, which phones are still popular and still on top of Antutu benchmark list for August.
