[Update] Samsung Galaxy Premier technical specifications

According to blog posts and reports, Samsung has officially announced this device. But it looks like it will only be available in a market where Samsung rules, in Russia (well, it will be available first in Ukraine). The Samsung Galaxy Premier, is a completely new Android superphone. It may seem to have the Galaxy S III look on it, but personally? It does not look like an SGS III for me. Anyway, according to SammyHub, the Galaxy Premier will be available in Ukraine by next month and I hope that the Korean-giant will be launching this device globally too.

Update: Samsung has finally released the official press release for this device and it said that the Galaxy Premier will be launched not only in Russia (it will still be launched there first) but also in Southeast Asia, China, and of course in South Korea. I have also changed some errors on the device's specs so do check it out.

Samsung made the tablet with the highest screen resolution ever but the screen is not Samsung's - Google Nexus 10

Even Sandy can't stop Google from unveiling to the world the tablet with the highest screen resolution. Google and Samsung announced the Nexus 10, a 10-incher tablet that runs on the latest and newest version of Android, Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. According to the official Android Blog, the "Nexus 10 is the highest resolution tablet on the planet with a 10.055" display at 2560-by-1600 (300ppi)". And guess what, it is! I don't like to do this, seriously I don't, but to give you an idea, think of the iPad 3 or 4 which both sport LG's IPS display technology (Retina display, in Apple's language), has a screen resolution of 2048x1536 and a pixel density of 264ppi. The Nexus 10 has the higher resolution, not only does it sport a bigger screen, it also has the higher pixel density compared to the iPad, at 300ppi.

Samsung retains crown as the the largest smartphone marker in the world! 56.3 million smartphones shipped in Q3 twice as Apple did!

The South Korean powerhouse, according to Reuters, is still the world's number 1 smartphone maker. And, even if I do not have any statistics to support what I am to say right now, is still the world's number 1 mobile phone maker. Aha moment, isn't it? Both Samsung and Apple have released their Q4 2012 results while Samsung only posted their Q3 2012 results which leaves more room for the numbers from both the Galaxy Note II and the Galaxy S III's sales. 

The Samsung Galaxy S III starts receiving the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update

The world's greatest smartphone that has ever landed on Earth starts receiving the world's greatest Mobile platform to date. Yup! The Samsung Galaxy S III has started receiving its well deserved Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update. And if I am not wrong, Samsung has delivered what it has promised. This, by the way, comes via a report by Clove UK that one of their customers has received the said update. The update only applies (as of now) to those Galaxy S IIIs that were bought unlocked and not via a carrier and only to the international version of the superphone. Android 4.1 JB is being distributed via OTA (Over-The-Air) or by tethering your device to a PC or Mac and by running Samsung Kies. Cheers SGS III users! 

Samsung S Pebble launched in South Korea

Samsung has officially launched the small music player they announced together with the Galaxy S III during MWC 2012. The Samsung S Pebble is now available in South Korea with a price tag of 79,000 Korean Won. The S Pebble, if you cannot remember it anymore, can last you up to 17hrs of music playback time.  It sports a 4GB storage for all your music collection. Apparently, the device will work beautifully if you own a Galaxy S III which the S Pebble is basically built for.

Boieng and Samsung become close friends

What is up? It's been a while since I posted here so I'll post now. Samsung and Boeing are now closer friends! Wonder what Samsung Electronics and an aerospace company got to do together? According to Samsung Tomorrow, the two companies have joined hands to research and develop technologies that will enhance the display and wireless technologies for passenger aircrafts. Neat isn't it? The R&D team up is made with the focus on creating technologies for these displays and wireless networking stuff to make them light weight and even more energy efficient, needing lesser power but still keeping the quality of it all.

The Samsung Galaxy S III receives the Carbon Trust Standard certification

Two Samsung Android smartphones have been given a distinct award by the Carbon Trust Standard. These Samsung devices are the Samsung Galaxy S III and the Samsung Galaxy Ace Duo. These two devices were given by the UK-based Carbon Trust Certification to PAS 2050 which is the global standard for measuring the greenhouse gas emissions directly or indirectly made by the product. That means from the production up to the point where the device is already bought and used by a user. 

Samsung USA to release the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update to all the Galaxy S III in the USA "in the coming months"

In the US, Samsung has officially announced that all the variants of the Galaxy S III will be receiving the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update before the end of this year. In their official presser, Samsung actually said that the update will be released "in the coming months". Since the Galaxy S III is being offered in the USA via 5 US carriers, Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile, and US Cellular, specific dates will be announced by these carriers (of course they need to add a bit of their own touches to the software before they send it out to customers). And like most, if not all, updates in the USA via a carrier, it will be administered via OTA. But the update should also be available via Samsung Kies, by manually downloading it and tethering your Galaxy S III to a PC or Mac. Read on Samsung's official presser to get the details on what to expect from Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, aside from it's totally beefed up features and an enhanced TouchWiz UI.

Samsung Series 9 13.3 & 15 technical specifications

And this is, personally, Samsung's cream of the crop when it comes to their line of laptops. The design plus the specs on these devices are just stunning perfect for business use and personal use. The Series 9 notebook has been changed in terms of materials used and the first Series 9 announced back in 2010 was probably the best because it used titanium as it's rear panel.  But anyway, this is still a nice notebook and it still carries that design Samsung just upgraded to an put Windows 8 on it.

Samsung Series 7 Gamer technical specifications

The black liveried version of the gaming laptop, according to the specs sheet,  have more RAM into it and mostly everything else is the same with the yellow one. Anyway, the specs.
