Samsung plans to ship 510 million phones in 2013


The Korean Times has reported that the Korean-phone maker, Samsung, has announced that they plan to ship 510 million phones by 2013. That is surpassing their 2012 total shipment of 420 million devices. Samsung in 2012 has already grabbed the greater chunk of the global market share in both smartphones and feature phones, being the #1 phone/smartphone manufacturer. With that plan of shipping 510 million devices, Samsung said that it will be comprising 390 million as smartphones and 120 million as feature phones. Also, Samsung said that with that number it expects to contribute 29% of global shipment of mobile devices. With the Samsung Galaxy S IV ready to be announced at MWC 2013, this should not be a problem for Samsung. All they really have to do is to keep on spitting out stellar devices in 2013 and this trend will apparently continue.

The Samsung Galaxy Grand


Samsung, before the world ended, announced the Samsung Galaxy Grand. This device, is probably the Korean-based company's last device to be announced for 2012, assuming they won't announce anything else in 2012. The Galaxy Grand, looks like a Galaxy S II (one of those versions in the US) and  runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean right out of the box. Carrying these things plus the fact that the device is actually a dual-SIM smartphone, the Galaxy Grand is probably a smartphone targeted for the Chinese, Korean, Philippine, and Indian market. But of course expect Samsung to be launching this on other markets aside from those I mentioned since this device also comes in a single-SIM version.

Beautiful on the Outside and the Inside - Innards of the Galaxy Note II


Most, if not all, people will not really bother how their devices look like inside the casing and the screen. What matters most, really, is how the device looks outside. Samsung, released a photo on their Samsung Tomorrow site on how the Galaxy Note II's innards look like. You be the judge, is the Galaxy Note II's innards as pretty as how the phablet looks like from the outside with casing on?

The smartest smartphone just got even smarter - Premium Suite upgrade for the Galaxy S III



Yup! The world's smartest smartphone just got even smarter. I know that the Galaxy Note II is a brilliant device, who wouldn't agree with me on that if it carries all the features you would want in a smartphone that is just smaller than the Note II? Well, Samsung heard you all. The maker of the most brilliant smartphone will be bringing that Premium Suite software onto the Galaxy S III making the S3 even more brilliant that it already is. The Korean-based company posted a demo video about it (part 1). Watch the video and S3 users will definitely be waiting for this.
