Samsung wants you to know the Galaxy S21 Ultra is better at pulling fried cheese sandwiches than the iPhone

Image
  Apple has been going through tough times over the past couple of weeks. First it was linked to a lawsuit filed by Epic Games, and now the company is under attack from Samsung as well. In a new series of videos, Samsung compares its own Galaxy 21 Ultra to Apple’s latest device to see which phone shoots better: checks notes – grilled cheese sandwiches? While these 15-second ads don’t open up anything new to the vast world of marketing, they get the intended message across quickly and efficiently. Both videos begin with the slogan “Updating your phone doesn’t have to be a downgrade.” The Galaxy S21 has a 108MP main camera that captures a lot more sticky details than the pitiful 12MP lens of the iPhone 12 Pro Max. But perhaps even more than that, the colors on the S21 look bolder, richer and, dare I say, much more mouth-watering. That is, I would eat any without complaint. In second place stands out the cleverly contrived Space Zoom feature that a...

Is it too late to buy the Samsung Galaxy A71?

Image
  Even though many of us have messed up other budget camera phones, the Pixel 4a is still an enthusiast phone. On the other hand, Samsung’s trusted mid-size Galaxy makers are much more popular and more likely to sell like hotcakes – which we felt very strongly about last year’s Galaxy A71. The well thought out package it offered made this phone an easy task for just about anyone looking for a decent phone on a budget. But in 2021, when the newer Galaxy A models are released, will the year-old Galaxy A71 still look like a smart choice? Finding the right balance between flagship features and price is crucial for a mid-range phone, and the Galaxy A71 has been pretty much accurate in its approach. From top to bottom, Samsung has given the phone what it needs to attract the bulk of its consumer base. Such an implementation could easily make the A71 a jack of all trades, but the fact is that it also handles some specific aspects, especially among phones of its class. Th...

Samsung teases what's next with OLED technology

Image
  Samsung’s first-generation foldable phone was a bit rude, but with every new device there were a lot of refinements to prove that technology wasn’t going anywhere. It’s no secret that the company is working on a sequel to last year’s Galaxy Z lineup, and we might be looking at a preview of what comes next. As part of Display Week 2021, Samsung Display today unveiled several new OLED panels that may hint at the future of smartphones. All four displays give a good idea of ​​where the foldable Z-series could go in 2021 and beyond. By far the most exciting panel on display is the new S-fold display that folds into two unique folds. If that sounds familiar, it’s because this design is very similar to the dual-hinge foldable phone we heard about back in March. A device with such a screen can be enlarged three times after full disclosure. While the other three designs aren’t nearly as appealing, they also offer a fun vision of what’s ahead of ...
