Samsung Galaxy S10 enters mass production

Highlights Samsung Galaxy S10 enters mass production. Phone may come with screen protector pre-installed. 5G variant to go into mass production later. With Samsung just 20 days away from announcing its next set of flagship smartphones, the Samsung Galaxy S10 and S10+, a source has told The Investor that the S10 has entered mass production. The insider says that the production for the three variants of the Samsung Galaxy S10 has begun and that these are the 4G variants of the phone. The source says that the 5G variants will enter mass production later and will be manufactured at Samsung’s Gumi plant. The insider also told the publication that the mid-sized and large Galaxy S10 will come with a screen protector pre-installed. Typically, curved screen protectors have cost a pretty penny in the past, so Samsung pre-installing screen protectors would be a great move. However, we expect these to be standard flexible screen protectors and not actually tempered glass protectors. The Galaxy S10 and S10+ have been the subject of plenty of leaks in the recent weeks. The phones are expected to ship with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor for the US market and Samsung’s own Exynos 9820 for the Indian markets. Interestingly, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 is manufactured on the 7nm process while Samsung Exynos 9820 utilises the 8nm process. The Qualcomm and Exynos chips are pretty neck-to-neck in terms of the on-paper features and specs, but as always, we will only know their true differences once the phone launches in multiple markets and enough benchmarking is done. Besides the processors, the Samsung Galaxy S10 is expected to have the front-facing camera embedded in the display, similar to the punch-hole design. Given that Samsung announced the production of the world’s first 1TB UFS storage chip, we wouldn’t be surprised if this makes its way into one of the variants of the Galaxy S10 or S10+. Samsung is expected to unveil the next lineup of Galaxy S flagships, the Galaxy S10 and S10+ on the 20th of February, just before Mobile World Congress. During the event, we do expect Samsung to showcase the 5G variant of the phone, alongside the much awaited foldable phone as well. Hopefully, all these devices would also make their way to the Samsung booth at MWC, in which case, we will be bringing you a hands-on demo of both.

This week in Android: It’s weird phone week

We got to play with a lot of cool tech at CES 2019 , but little was cooler than the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 . Qualcomm had a reference device sporting the new SoC and we were able to put it through its paces , including our very own Speed Test G . The results are impressive. In other big news this week, we found out Motorola is planning on bringing back the Razr phone , made famous in the mid 2000s. We don’t know a lot about the phone itself, but we can make some guesses based on a patent from August of last year. Plus, we look ahead at the future of LG and OnePlus , including a new peculiar accessory for LG . Also, we have good news and bad news about Huawei’s security. Here are your top stories for the week 4:20 – Snapdragon 855 performance and benchmarking: Speed Test G, AnTuTu & Geekbench At CES, Gary Sims previewed the Snapdragon 855 processor in reference hardware. He had some fun with it. 21:45 – You’ll flip for the foldable Motorol...

My product launch wishlist for Instagram, Twitter, Uber and more

‘Twas the night before Xmas, and all through the house, not a feature was stirring from the designer’s mouse . . . Not Twitter! Not Uber, Not Apple or Pinterest! On Facebook! On Snapchat! On Lyft or on Insta! . . . From the sidelines I ask you to flex your code’s might. Happy Xmas to all if you make these apps right. Instagram See More Like This – A button on feed posts that when tapped inserts a burst of similar posts before the timeline continues. Want to see more fashion, sunsets, selfies, food porn, pets, or Boomerangs? Instagram’s machine vision technology and metadata would gather them from people you follow and give you a dose. You shouldn’t have to work through search, hashtags, or the Explore page, nor permanently change your feed by following new accounts. Pinterest briefly had this feature (and should bring it back) but it’d work better on Insta. Web DMs – Instagram’s messaging feature has become the defacto place for sharing memes and trash talk about peopl...

First ever drone-delivered kidney is no worse for wear

Drone delivery really only seems practical for two things: take-out and organ transplants. Both are relatively light and also extremely time sensitive. Well, experiments in flying a kidney around Baltimore in a refrigerated box have yielded positive results — which also seems promising for getting your pad thai to you in good kit. The test flights were conducted by researchers at the University of Maryland there, led by surgeon Joseph Scalea. He has been frustrated in the past with the inflexibility of air delivery systems, and felt that drones represent an obvious solution to the last-mile problem. Scalea and his colleagues modified a DJI M600 drone to carry a refrigerated box payload, and also designed a wireless biosensor for monitoring the organ while in flight. After months of waiting, their study was assigned a kidney that was healthy enough for testing but not good enough for transplant. Once it landed in Baltimore, the team loaded it into the container and had it travel 14 ...
