Samsung’s David Eun: ongoing Apple v. Samsung litigation ‘a loss’ for innovation
February 18, 2013 by
David Eun, presently serving as EVP at Samsung's Open Innovation Center after stints at AOL, Google, Time Warner and NBC Entertainment, just took the stage here in Dana Point, California during the opening night of D:Dive Into Media 2013.

Samsung’s SGH-i667 ‘Mandel’ Windows Phone: surprise, it’s the Focus 2
May 9, 2012 by
Mystery, solved. That SGH-i667 'Mandel' Windows Phone that cropped up earlier in the month (and is shown above on the left)? Word on the street at that point was that it had been nixed from AT&T's lineup, but somehow, that same device actually made the trip to New Orleans. Sure enough, it debuted at CTIA as the Focus 2, a mid-range followup … [Read more...]
Samsung’s Unpacked Mobile 2012 app outs ‘Galaxy S3’ as next smartphone’s name
May 2, 2012 by
Up until now, we haven't actually had any confirmation of what Samsung's upcoming superphone would be named. We've had plenty of reason to believe that it'd simply be the third iteration of the famed Galaxy S line, and even an Amazon Germany page predicting as much, but it's another thing entirely to see the term "Galaxy S3" used by Samsung itself. … [Read more...]
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1-inch) priced at $399, still unavailable for purchase
April 6, 2012 by
Office Depot probably isn't the first place you'd think to look for Samsung's incoming Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1), but it looks to be the first legitimate retailer to throw a price tag on the aforementioned slate. Just weeks after cruising through the FCC, the Tab 2 is now being shown with a $ 399.99 price. Granted, that's for the lowly 8GB model, but … [Read more...]
Samsung’s Won-Pyo Hong: Galaxy Nexus wasn’t designed just to skirt Apple patents
October 20, 2011 by
Well, so much for that. Samsung's Executive Vice President of Product Strategy -- Won-Pyo Hong -- didn't say a whole heck of a lot on stage here at AsiaD, but he did clarify one thing near the end of his interview: he has 'no idea' where those earlier rumors came from. With "those rumors" regarding the matter of designing the Galaxy Nexus … [Read more...]
How would you change Samsung’s Chromebook Series 5?
October 6, 2011 by
It's compact, it's cute and it's weird. But it might be your perfect netbook. Google's Chromebook family isn't apt to ever be an end-all solution -- particularly for those that aren't married to the company's suite of web-based products -- and we're pretty sure Samsung's taking notes on how to make the eventual followup to the Series 5 even better. … [Read more...]
How would you change Samsung’s Droid Charge?
August 29, 2011 by
Skipped over the Thunderbolt, did you? If you were waiting for that other LTE phone to come your way, Samsung's Droid Charge may have been the one that caught your eye. For those who settled on it, we're interested in knowing how things have been going. How's that Super AMOLED Plus panel treating you... outdoors? Is the LTE radio smashing your … [Read more...]
Samsung’s LTE-equipped Galaxy Tab 10.1 comes to Verizon on July 28th
July 26, 2011 by
It's a Galaxy Tab 10.1, but with 4G. No, not that 4G. Not even that 4G. This 4G. You know, the LTE variety, being spread around like Christmas ham by the folks at Verizon Wireless. Cosmetically, the slate offered up by Big Red is no different than the WiFi-only model that we peeked earlier in the year, but the LTE radio tucked within obviously … [Read more...]
