Samsung Galaxy X folding smartphone rumoured for release in 2017

According to Korean website ETNews, in a report published in April, Samsung is working on making the Galaxy X into a foldable phone that will offer a 5 inch mobile phone screen which can then be further unfolded into a 7 inch tablet device/display. The tech company is also preparing to launch the much awaited Galaxy Note 6 phablet, which will most likely happen in August. Samsung has yet to launch the Galaxy Note 6 but is expected to arrive in the coming months.

The phone is rumored to be featuring 5.8-inch QHD display with 2,560 x 1,440-pixel resolution and Qualcomm Snapdragon 823 processor. Like usual, Samsung will be updating the Galaxy S series, with the S8 and S8 Edge. Just in case you want to know if your device's update is ready, you can manually check via the phone's Settings About device Software update. This feature will allow users to fold the smartphone to easily put it inside the pocket. We've seen patents filed here and there and some leaked prototypes of what it might look like, but overall, Samsung has been pretty mum about its rumored foldable display smartphones.

Though the company released the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge earlier this year, it is claimed that they're looking to release the next iteration of the flagship device in 2017, along with a new Note 7/Note 7 Edge and the highly anticipated Galaxy X. In 2015, the South Korean company had introduced Galaxy S6 Edge smartphone with dual edge curved screen.

Rumors on the Galaxy S7 Active started surfacing quite a while ago and culminated with the release of a GFXBench benchmark test that was posted online and shed some light on the specs.

We're not even halfway through 2016 at this point, but it's quite possible that we've already see the two hottest ndew Android phones that will debut this year. Samsung is now pegged to raise the competition bar higher by launching Samsung Galaxy X smartphone.

The Samsung Galaxy Note7 (S820) Review

This year has been difficult for smartphones, which is a bit of a paradox when you consider just how much better things have gotten compared to last year. With Snapdragon 820, 650, 652, and 625 we've finally moved past the shadow of the Snapdragon 810, 808, and 617/615. While there were Android devices that shipped with the Exynos 7420, they were often paired with a modem that was not necessarily the most power efficient. Despite all of this, there seems to be a general disappointment with smartphones. People are increasingly finding it hard to justify phones like the HTC 10 or Galaxy S7 with competition from OnePlus, Xiaomi, and even Apple with their iPhone SE. In this context the Galaxy Note7 brings much of the flavor of the Galaxy S7 edge, but blends it with the S-Pen of the Note line and a few new features like the iris scanner. If you were paying attention to the industry with the launch of the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note5, it's very much more of the same rather than the m

Why do Android fanboys hate admitting that Samsung copied Apple?

It's impossible to cover the mobile market without diving into the good ol' "iOS vs. Android" debate from time to time. These are the two biggest mobile platforms on the planet, so they're constantly being compared. Likewise, Samsung and Apple are the world's top two smartphone vendors, so their phones are constantly pitted against each other as well. Of course, there's another reason Apple and Samsung are often mentioned in the same breath: after entering the market, Samsung quickly grew to become the top mobile device maker on the planet thanks in large part to Apple. First, Samsung did everything it possibly could to copy Apple's iPhone and iPad. Then, it spent billions upon billions of dollars belittling Apple products in TV, online, and print advertising. Samsung spent years positioning its own devices as the cool alternative to Apple's iPhone, and its efforts paid off big time. Even now, Samsung continues to copy Apple all the time acro
