Truth be told, I wasn't expecting to hold on to this phone after the review because of all the phones that were coming out, but I still use it every single day. That's right, I've had the vanilla Galaxy S23 since day one, and I see myself using it as a primary device for the rest of 2023, or at least until I find something worthy of replacing it.

Both Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Z Flip 4 are two of the best foldable phones you can buy in the United States right now. That, however, doesn't mean they're flawless devices, as Samsung left the door for plenty of improvements. They're both easy to recommend compared to many others out there, but almost all of us here at XDA agreed that they were at least a generation shy of truly hitting their stride. 2023 is shaping up to be one of the biggest years for foldables, and we've already seen some big releases like the Pixel Fold and the Moto Razr+.

This is exciting because Samsung currently makes some of the best foldable smartphones on the market.

That's right, you can buy some great Android phones for $300 or even less as long as you don't mind giving up on all the fancy features and sticking with the one or two that are most important to you. I recommend turning to Android phones if you're in the market to buy one of the top-rated phones without breaking the bank, as the budget Android space is constantly swarmed by a ton of options.

It goes all-in to provide the best smartphone experience you can get on a flagship Android device right now. It's a relatively big phone, though, so you may take some time to get used to the size if you're coming from a small-sized phone. We also recommend buying a durable case to ensure it stays protected at all times. If you're wondering which case to buy for your Galaxy S22 Ultra unit, then here are some solid options to consider.

]]> Mon, 03 Jul 2023 09:00:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-s22-ultra-cases/ Galaxy Z Flip 3 was launched in August 2020 alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 3. It represented a massive upgrade over its predecessor, Galaxy Z Flip 2, and went on to become the most popular foldable phone on the market.

]]> Sat, 01 Jul 2023 19:31:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-galaxy-z-flip-3-chargers/ The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is undoubtedly one of the year's best phones. It packs almost everything you expect to see in a top-tier flagship, including the most powerful processor on the market, a bright and vivid high refresh rate display, a versatile camera setup with a phenomenal main camera, and outstanding battery life. While it's not much of an upgrade over Samsung's last-gen flagship, it's a great option for those who want the latest and greatest smartphone money can buy.

Even if you find a good Galaxy Z Flip 4 deal, you’re still spending a pretty penny on this foldable phone.

These cases range from hard and protective rugged cases that can withstand drops from up to 10 feet to stylish leather cases that can help prevent scuffing and scratching.

The device is extremely compact, has no moving parts, and can store a lot of data. But if you're talking about storage, the most important thing about any drive is going to be its reliability. This is where Samsung's portable SSDs come into play, with the company offering some of the best portable SSDs available.

]]> Wed, 28 Jun 2023 22:20:46 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-2tb-t7-ssd-115-deal/ Samsung's Galaxy S23 series phones made quite a splash earlier this year, and they remain some of the best Android phones you can buy right now. The Galaxy S23 Ultra is easily the best phone in the series, but the regular Galaxy S23 and the Galaxy S23+ have a lot going for them too. The new Galaxy S23 devices exceeded our expectations in many ways, but there;'s no denying that Samsung played it a bit safe, leaving plenty of room for improvement again.

But just like most flagship smartphones these days, none of the offerings have a headphone jack, whether it's a regular Galaxy S22 or the top-of-the-line Galaxy S22 Ultra model.

]]> Mon, 26 Jun 2023 09:00:20 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-s22-type-c-earphones/ All smartphones, regardless of their make and model, offer features that help you send an emergency SOS call or a message, so you can seek assistance during a medical emergency or dangerous situation.

This is partly because One UI is an operating system built upon another operating system, so you'll have duplicate applications. There's the Google Play Store and the Samsung Galaxy Store, Google Messages and Samsung Messages, and so on. There are other extraneous apps installed when you start up a Samsung device for the first time, like Samsung Messages and Samsung Health. If the bloatware and unwanted installations stopped there, it would be a slight annoyance we could look past.

]]> Sun, 25 Jun 2023 15:00:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-stop-installing-apps-without-permission/ The Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 series has two solid options that are currently on top of our best smartwatches list. They're both equally good, and they bring subtle changes and improvements to the already excellent smartwatches in the Galaxy Watch 4 series. The Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, in particular, is the more durable option, and it also has a slightly bigger display and battery compared to the regular one. There is a lot to like about the new smartwatches, but it's a shame that the bands included with them are just decent at best. They may not even give you a good fit if you happen to have small wrists. Thankfully, there are a ton of third-party watch bands available on the market, so you don't have to stick with the included ones.

We've all been there, right? It's always that one person or that one kid in the background taking everything away from an otherwise beautiful photo.

This means that many users no longer have to carry around physical wallets, purses, or even keys, thanks to the advanced integrations and increasingly expanding support. Two popular digital wallets are Samsung Wallet and Apple Wallet, with each being available on its respective company's smartphones. So, what's the difference between the two, and which is better? Let's take a look.

Whether you're looking to upgrade your laptop, find a solid external drive to back up all your cherished files, or just trying to get more storage space for your camera — these are going to be the best options out there right now.

Just like Windows laptops, Chromebooks now come in all shapes and sizes and are solid options even against MacBooks. There is an excellent choice of ChromeOS clamshell laptops, convertibles, and even desktop mini Chromeboxes. In some cases, these Chromebooks might even be cheaper in price, too.

]]> Wed, 21 Jun 2023 19:31:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-chromebooks/ While it's been a few years since Samsung discontinued its popular Galaxy Note lineup, one of the main features that set Galaxy Note devices apart lives on in the company's latest Galaxy S series flagships. As many of you may already know, last year's Galaxy S22 Ultra was a spiritual successor to the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. It featured a similar design and came with a built-in S Pen offering lower latency and improved writing performance. Thanks to the built-in S Pen, the Galaxy S22 Ultra was among the best Android phones for power users, and its successor, the Galaxy S23 Ultra, is no different on that front.

]]> Wed, 21 Jun 2023 14:31:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-s23-ultra-s-pen/ It's true that smartphones are getting bigger and better with larger displays, especially when you consider the excellent foldable phones out now, but they're not quite ready to replace tablets just yet. Tablets are still the perfect companions to have alongside your smartphone, laptop, or PC, as they let you work on things more effectively. The best tablets are the ones that are big enough to keep you entertained when you fire up your favorite apps and games, but not so much that it becomes a hassle to carry them around. You should also pick the ones with a wealth of productivity apps and features to help you get some light work done when you are away from your desk. Choosing the right tablet, however, can be tricky because there are a lot of options that fit the bill.

]]> Wed, 21 Jun 2023 11:00:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-tablets/ Handing over your favorite Android phone to a service center for repairs can be quite stressful. I don't blame you for being skeptical about it because not only are you going to spend time without your dearest handset, but you're also handing over your smartphone — an extension of yourself — to the repairing folks who could potentially snoop on your private photos, files, and other personal data. You can always hide, clear some of your crucial data or even factory reset your phone before getting it repaired, but it's not an ideal solution, is it? Samsung's solution to this is its "Maintenance Mode," a feature that's designed to keep your data from getting into the hands of bad actors.

]]> Mon, 19 Jun 2023 20:00:20 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-use-maintenance-mode-samsung-galaxy/ One of the best things about Samsung Galaxy Book laptops is the AMOLED screen. Unlike the LCD panels on other great Windows convertible laptops and even standard Windows laptops, the AMOLED panels can push out more vibrant-looking images, and incredible levels of contrast. This makes these devices great for multimedia experiences.

]]> Mon, 19 Jun 2023 17:01:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-pens-samsung-galaxy-book-laptops/ Samsung is expected to launch a number of gadgets next month at its second Galaxy Unpacked event this year. While the company recently announced that the event will be held in Seoul, South Korea in late July, it stopped short of confirming the exact date. Online rumors suggest that it will be most likely held on July 27, but we'd take that information with a pinch of salt for now. Either way, it promises to be one of the most exciting events of the year for not only Samsung fans, but all foldable enthusiasts.

]]> Mon, 19 Jun 2023 14:50:23 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-unpacked-every-device/ Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip 4 and the Galaxy Z Fold 4 are due for an update in 2023, but they remain two of the best foldable phones you can buy in 2023. They're both readily available to purchase from various retailers and carriers in the US. The Galaxy Z Flip 4 is the more affordable foldable of the two, carrying a $1,000 price tag. It's also frequently discounted since it's been out for a while now, so you just need to look at the right places to snag a good deal. If you are in the market to buy a Galaxy Z Flip 4 and are wondering where to find the best deals for it, then check out my roundup of the best Galaxy Z Flip 4 deals below.

]]> Sun, 18 Jun 2023 01:00:21 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-z-flip-4-deals/ Recent years have brought on a major shift in the way we work. While working from home is no longer required for many people, there's a certain degree of flexibility in working remotely, letting you keep an eye on your house or children more easily without stepping away from work entirely. But if you want to work remotely, not only do you need a great PC for working from home, but you may also find that you need a monitor (or more than one) to expand your workspace and increase your productivity.

Luckily, we've spotted this amazing deal from Samsung that knocks $900 off the retail price of its 55-inch QN90B Neo QLED 4K smart TV. The QN90B is highly regarded by both reviewers and consumers, offering amazing picture quality, great sound, and packs plenty of smart features. So if you've been thinking about grabbing a new TV, look no further because this TV is going to give you everything you want and more at a great price.

]]> Fri, 16 Jun 2023 21:11:50 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-55-qn90b-900-off-deal/ Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 4 is currently one of the best and most refined foldable phones you can buy in the U.S. But what if I told you Samsung doesn't actually make the most cutting-edge foldable hardware? The Z Fold 4's spot at the top has more to do with software polish and rivals' lack of market availability than the actual folding mechanism. Xiaomi's Mix Fold 2, for example, is significantly thinner; Vivo's X Fold and Huawei's Mate X2 have more advanced camera systems, and the Oppo Find N2 has a screen that is virtually crease-free. All of these phones can fold completely flat, while the Z Fold 4 still cannot. The newly launched Google Pixel Fold seems to be having some issues folding completely flat too, but I'll reserve my judgments on that for later.

]]> Fri, 16 Jun 2023 21:00:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-5/ Samsung makes some of the best smartwatches for Android smartphones, so when it comes to new wearables from the company, there's a lot of excitement involved, especially when the devices are expected to launch alongside the company's latest foldables. While we are still a month away from Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event set to take place in July in Seoul, South Korea, we've been seeing leaks here and there for upcoming devices like the Galaxy Z Fold 5, Galaxy Z Flip 5.

The company is expected to reveal its next-generation foldables, and while there's still some time to wait, we've been lucky enough to get some unofficial previews of the devices that are expected to be launched at the event, thanks to newly leaked press renders that have popped up over the past couple of days. We've seen the Galaxy Z Fold 5, and now we are getting a good look at the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 5.

]]> Fri, 16 Jun 2023 16:26:37 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-z-flip-5-press-render-leak/ Samsung is reportedly prepping to release its One UI 6.0 beta for the Galaxy S23 series in the third week of July. That's according to SamMobile, which says the software will also be rolled out to other compatible smartphones and tablets "soon thereafter." The S23 series is currently running One UI 5.1 based on Android 13, while One UI 6 is expected to be based on Android 14.

Of course, without confirmation, it's hard to say if this image that we're seeing today is the real deal, but luckily we won't have to wait long to find out, as the Galaxy Unpacked launch event is set to take place in Seoul next month.

This laptop doesn't skimp when it comes to features either, with an Intel Core i9 processor, and a beautiful 16-inch AMOLED display. Whether you're someone looking to get through office work or a gamer that wants to play their favorites on the go, this laptop has everything you could ever need and is now priced well below its MSRP for a limited time. During its special promotional period, Samsung's knocked $400 off its original price, bringing it down to $2600. This is one of the best laptops you can buy right now so don't miss out on this fantastic deal.

]]> Fri, 16 Jun 2023 00:15:43 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/save-400-galaxy-book-3-ultra/ The best external monitors for the Dell XPS 17 can turn it into a multitasking powerhouse thanks to all the extra screen real estate. While the XPS 17's monster built-in display is exceptional in its own right, having a great monitor or two on a desk will absolutely alter your workflow for the better.

For a limited time, you can get a 10,000mAh battery pack for free with every Galaxy A54, with or without trade-in. The offer is valid for purchases made on Samsung's official U.S. website, and applies to the factory-unlocked variant in Awesome Graphite and Awesome Violet colors.

]]> Thu, 15 Jun 2023 16:55:35 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-a54-free-battery-pack/ While Samsung has already released its new Galaxy S23 series, last year's Galaxy S22 lineup is still worth buying if you're getting a deal on the devices. The Galaxy S22+, for instance, is a great phone for most users who want a solid flagship and don't care about the latest specifications. If you've just picked one up at a heavy discount, you should definitely invest in a screen protector and case to protect its display and back glass.

]]> Wed, 14 Jun 2023 14:30:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-s22-plus-wallet-cases/ Just over a month after Samsung's Irregular Heart Rhythm Notification (IHRN) feature received FDA clearance, the company has announced plans to roll it out this summer to the Samsung Health Monitor app as part of One UI 5 Watch. In a press release, Samsung said that the IHRN feature will be widely rolled out in 13 markets, although there's no specific date for the roll-out at the moment.

]]> Wed, 14 Jun 2023 13:29:28 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-watch-irregular-heart-rhythm-notification/ Although Samsung has already released the Galaxy A54, last year's Galaxy A53 is still among the best cheap Android phones on the market. The newer model is just a minor upgrade, and you can often find the Galaxy A53 at a discount. Its Exynos 1280 SoC is powerful enough for most day-to-day tasks, and its 6.5-inch high refresh rate Super AMOLED display is among the best in the segment. On top of that, it has a decent set of cameras and a massive 5,000mAh battery that easily lasts a full day of use on a single charge.

]]> Wed, 14 Jun 2023 01:01:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-a53-chargers/ Although Samsung's new Galaxy S23 lineup offers Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection on the front and back, you shouldn't completely rely on it to protect the devices from scratches and drops. It's still glass, after all, and you never know when it might shatter from an accidental fall. That's why we recommend buying a case for your Galaxy S23 before it even arrives. While rugged cases are best suited for overall protection, I don't like how they make devices feel bulky. If you're like me and are looking for a slim case for your brand-new Galaxy S23, you've come to the right place.

]]> Tue, 13 Jun 2023 23:00:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-thin-cases-samsung-galaxy-s23/ Although the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 offers various health and fitness tracking features, some are not available for all users. Features like ECG and blood pressure monitoring are restricted to certain regions, and you can't use them if your watch is paired with a non-Samsung device. Thankfully, there is a simple workaround to enable ECG and blood pressure monitoring on the Galaxy Watch 4.

]]> Tue, 13 Jun 2023 18:01:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-enable-bp-sync-samsung-galaxy-watch-4/ Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy Watch 6 at its Unpacked event next month, and a steady stream of leaks over the past few weeks have already revealed a few interesting tidbits about it. That includes the possible comeback of the physical rotating bezel, which was a trademark feature for many of Samsung's older smartwatches before it was removed from the Watch 5 series last year. Now a new regulatory listing has seemingly revealed the identity of the chipset that will be powering the next-gen Samsung smartwatch.

]]> Tue, 13 Jun 2023 16:04:52 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/galaxy-watch-6-upgraded-exynos-processor/ All three devices in Samsung's Galaxy S23 lineup offer great value at their respective price. The phones bring welcome improvements over last year's models, including performance upgrades with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy SoC, sleeker designs, brighter screens, and better cameras. Most notably, the top-of-the-line Galaxy S23 Ultra is the first Samsung phone to feature an impressive 200MP camera, which can capture stunning shots in various lighting conditions. In addition, all three models have received some durability improvements, like Corning's Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the front and back, making them some of the most durable phones on the market. But even then, we don't recommend you use them without a case or screen protector.

]]> Tue, 13 Jun 2023 14:00:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-s23-series-cases-with-screen-protector/ Samsung's Galaxy S22 lineup may not have the latest phones on the market, but they still hold up quite well and are still available to purchase in the U.S. You may even find them at discounted prices now that the Galaxy S23 series has taken over as the flagship lineup. We recommend picking up the new Galaxy S23 series phones if you want the best of what Samsung has to offer, but the Galaxy S22 is plenty for a lot of people too. The Galaxy S22 Ultra, in particular, remains one of the best phones you can buy in 2023. So if you're looking to buy one of the Galaxy S22 series phones and are wondering where to get the best deals, then you've come to the right place. Here are the best Galaxy S22 deals to help you save some money on your purchase.

]]> Tue, 13 Jun 2023 10:00:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-s22-deals/ Although all three devices in Samsung's new Galaxy S23 lineup have the potential to be among the best phones of the year, the base Galaxy S23 will likely be the best-selling of the trio. It's much more affordable than the Galaxy S23 Ultra and offers all the features you get with the Plus model in a more compact, user-friendly package. If you've just ordered a new Galaxy S23 and are considering buying a case for it, you might want to consider a wallet case.

]]> Tue, 13 Jun 2023 00:00:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-wallet-cases-samsung-galaxy-s23/ Samsung’s Galaxy S23 is the smallest and most affordable member of the Galaxy S23 family, with a 6.1-inch display starting at $800. It's also frequently discounted, which is why I see a lot more people leaning toward it than the Galaxy S23+ and the Galaxy S23 Ultra model. Despite the smaller footprint and a relatively affordable price tag, the Galaxy S23 checks all the right boxes to stand toe-to-toe with the flagships out there in 2023. It's convincingly better than its predecessor and will last you many years to come, provided you treat it well.

]]> Mon, 12 Jun 2023 19:01:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-s23-screen-protectors/ Samsung has a pretty solid track record when it comes to releasing foldable phones, with the Galaxy Z Fold 4, Fold 3, and Flip 4 all making appearances in our picks for the best foldable phones that you can buy in 2023. The company is expected to release its Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 handsets this year, with some renders of the latter leaking a few weeks ago. Now, some more interesting details have been revealed about the Galaxy Z Flip 5.

]]> Mon, 12 Jun 2023 18:59:45 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-z-flip-5-optimized-google-apps-cover-display-rumor/ Samsung is finally starting pre-orders for one of its most ambitious monitors, the Odyssey G9 OLED or, more specifically, the 49-inch Odyssey OLED G95SC DQHD Neo Quantum Processor Pro Curved Smart Gaming Monitor. Yes, the official product name is quite a mouthful, but the company doesn't hold anything back with its latest monitor, claiming it's the "world's first 49-inch OLED monitor." For a limited time, Samsung, Best Buy, and Amazon offering a $250 credit when pre-ordering.

]]> Mon, 12 Jun 2023 16:32:34 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/samsungs-odyssey-oled-g9-monitor-pre-order/ Samsung's latest flagship lineup has only been on sale for a few weeks, and it's already available at attractive discounts on various platforms. The new Galaxy S23 series is easily among the best phones you can buy right now. And while the phones are pretty expensive, you don't have to pay full price if you keep an eye out for deals. To help you out, we've rounded up the best Galaxy S23 series deals from retailers and carriers, so you don't have to fish around the internet to get the best bang for your buck.

]]> Sun, 11 Jun 2023 21:00:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-s23-deals/ During our review of the Galaxy S23 Ultra, it became clear it is the crème de la crème of Samsung's Galaxy S series in 2023. It brings some noteworthy improvements over its predecessor to live up to its Ultra moniker, and it remains one of the top picks in our collection of the best phones of the year. It's a relatively big phone to carry around, though, and it might take a while for you to get used to it if you're coming from a smaller device. It's also on the expensive side, so you should definitely consider buying a case to protect it from accidental drops and scuffs.

]]> Sun, 11 Jun 2023 14:30:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-cases-samsung-galaxy-s23-ultra/ Samsung's latest top-of-the-line flagship might not be radically different from its predecessor, but the Galaxy S23 Ultra brings some noteworthy improvements. It's the first smartphone from the company to feature a 200MP primary camera, and it also packs a custom version of Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip for improved performance. Like its predecessor, the Galaxy S23 Ultra features an Armor Aluminum frame and an IP68 dust and water resistance rating.

]]> Sun, 11 Jun 2023 09:00:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-s23-ultra-screen-protectors/ While Samsung's flagship Galaxy S23 lineup gains the most media attention as it offers the best hardware money can buy, its mid-range Galaxy A54 will most likely be the best-selling Samsung device this year. That's because it's one of the best phones for the average user, offering great performance, an impressive display, decent cameras, and an amazing software experience at a much more affordable price.

]]> Sat, 10 Jun 2023 23:00:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-a54-screen-protectors/ The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 supports a wide array of health tracking and fitness features. However, some of these features are not available to all users. For instance, the ECG and blood pressure features are restricted to certain regions. In addition, you can't use these features when the watch is paired with a non-Samsung phone, even in supported regions either. Thankfully, there's a workaround to get these features across all regions, even on non-Samsung devices. If you're using your Galaxy Watch 4 with a non-Samsung phone or don't have access to the features due to regional restrictions, here's how you can enable ECG and blood pressure on your Galaxy Watch 4.

]]> Sat, 10 Jun 2023 18:00:19 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-enable-ecg-blood-pressure-monitoring-samsung-galaxy-watch-4/ The Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 is one of the best Android tablets you can buy in 2023. It's the smallest member of Samsung's Galaxy Tab S8 family, so it's perfect for those who want a compact tablet for everyday use. But don't underestimate its performance or feature set going by its size because it punches above its weight class thanks to its top-tier hardware. It's powered by the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor as the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, and it sports 120Hz, expandable storage, and stereo speakers, among other things. It also goes easy on your wallet as it's frequently discounted now and can be had for as less than $600 in the U.S.

]]> Sat, 10 Jun 2023 17:00:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-tab-s8-cases/ Smartwatches have become so good over the past few years. And some of the best options from Apple and Samsung strive to provide a seamless experience while also packing in as many features as humanly possible. But one thing that's remained perplexing is the need to reset the wearable if you're trying to sync it to a new device. This is a characteristic of most wearables out on the market today, and to be frank, it's quite annoying, especially in this age. But it looks like that could all change with the introduction of Samsung's One UI Watch 5 based on Wear OS 4.

]]> Fri, 09 Jun 2023 17:41:21 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/wear-os-4-swap-without-a-reset/ Although it's been over two years since Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S21 Ultra, it's still a solid smartphone with impressive performance, a gorgeous display, great cameras, and a long-lasting battery. While it isn't as good as the newer Galaxy S22 Ultra and Galaxy S23 Ultra, it's still a pretty powerful Android phone. If you already own one, you probably won't feel the need to replace it for another two years. But you might have to if you don't use it with a durable case and a screen protector. In case you don't have a screen protector installed on your phone or want to replace the existing one because it's too scratched up, you've come to the right place. I've rounded up the best Galaxy S21 Ultra screen protectors currently on the market to help you easily find one that fits your requirements.

My Photoshop aversion led me to embrace relatively simple apps like Lightroom and Pixelmator over the years. I've finally settled on Snapseed now, which has become indispensable for me thanks to its exhaustive list of tools. But even Snapseed often feels like an overkill when all I am really ever doing is touching up or spot-fixing some minor imperfections. That's where Samsung's new Galaxy Enhance-X app comes in.

The Samsung 980 Pro was one of the best M.2 SSDs available before being dethroned by the Samsung 990 Pro series. Despite this, they're still a great option and provide plenty of speed and reliability. So whether you're itching to upgrade your laptop or PlayStation 5, or just need to get more storage into your PC, the 980 Pros are going to be an excellent option for you.

These flagship tablets have always stood for a premium experience, from the performance to the display. They're also frequently discounted now, making them an easy recommendation for those looking to buy a reliable Android tablet. The Galaxy Tab S8 series has three different devices, although the Galaxy Tab S8+ is a popular pick as it lets you get a huge 12.4-inch display without spending as much as you would on the Tab S8 Ultra.

]]> Tue, 06 Jun 2023 14:01:18 GMT https://www.xda-developers.com/best-samsung-galaxy-tab-s8-plus-cases/ At the top of the year, Samsung announced the new Odyssey OLED G9 and other impressive monitors during CES 2023. The massive 49-inch curved monitor builds on its predecessor and features a beautiful OLED panel with a 1800R curvature, 240Hz refresh rate, and plenty more. Like with many things that get announced at CES, it wasn't available for purchase at the time, but Samsung has now started the pre-registration process, giving users big incentives to sign up, like a $250 Samsung gift card and also a $50 discount on the product itself when it's time to purchase.

It's a portable powerhouse that packs a lot of great features, and it's a tempting purchase even at its full price of $1,799. The Galaxy Z Fold 4, in case you don't know, comes with a 7.6-inch main screen and a 6.2-inch cover screen, both of which support 120Hz refresh rates. Additionally, it has as many as five cameras in total, so it's quite versatile when it comes to all the shooting modes.

Both bring a lot of meaningful upgrades over their predecessors, and they're worth considering if you're in the market for a premium Wear OS watch right now. The updates brought more durability, bigger batteries, and even support some additional health-tracking features. They don't leave much room for complaints, but I wish Samsung had changed how you charge these smartwatches. The Galaxy Watch 5 series support WPC-based wireless charging, which, in a nutshell, limits the chargers you can use with these watches.

There are three phones in the lineup, and you can check out our Galaxy S23 vs Galaxy S23+ vs Galaxy S23 Ultra to find out how they stack up. Once you've decided which of the three phones to get, you should consider getting a case to protect it from accidental drops and scuffs. We've already rounded up the best cases for each in separate posts, but I wanted to highlight some Spigen cases in this one.

It's one of the best phones under $200, featuring MediaTek's Dimensity 700 SoC, a 6.6-inch FHD+ 90Hz display, 50MP triple cameras, and a massive 5,000mAh battery with 15W wired charging support. However, like other cheap Android phones, it has a few shortcomings. For instance, the phone doesn't ship with a compatible charger in the box, and while you do get a charging cable, you don't get a protective case, screen protector, earbuds, or anything else with the device. Fortunately, there's no shortage of Galaxy A14 accessories on the market, and we've picked out some of the best products that will greatly level up your experience.

The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and Galaxy S23+ are some of the best Android smartphones you can buy right now, but that doesn't mean they are perfect. Particularly it looks like the Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 are experiencing some issues when it comes to close-up photos, but it looks like Samsung is ready to bring some improvements with an update that will correct the photo blurring issues when taking photos of objects up close.

Luckily, Samsung has a wide variety of tablets on offer for different users. With such a large selection, it can be tough to determine which will work for you. It doesn't matter if you want an excellent display, powerful gaming hardware, or a unit that doubles as a laptop, there's an option to meet every need — and I've found them.

As we mentioned in our Galaxy A54 5G review, it brings a lot of noteworthy improvements over last year's Galaxy A53 to become a great option for those looking to buy a reliable phone right now without spending top dollars on an expensive flagship. One of my favorite things about this particular phone is it looks and feels like a premium flagship phone. Samsung has fitted this phone with Gorilla Glass 5 panels on both front and back, meaning it's more durable than many other phones in this price range.
