XDA forum member, Potatoman, has developed a modified Camera.APK for the Samsung Galaxy S II which combines modifications with those from XDA members Soraxd, Rafalense, pulser_g2, llBlackenedll, robbiekhan, and hyperX. Keep in mind that it appears there won’t be any near-term development on this because Potatoman announced that he cannot continue due to personal issues. Potatoman writes [...]
Let’s talk Galaxy Tab 10.1 cases. We’re still not sure exactly what’s going to be available at launch in a couple weeks, but Samsung’s Gavin Kim gave us a sneak peek at a flip case he’s using (on that very cool metallic gray Galaxy Tab no less). It’s a simple yet elegant case. Made of [...]

So you desperately want a Galaxy Tab 10.1, but maybe white’s not your thing. How about a nice metallic gray- Samsung can do that, too. And for our money, this one’s where it’s at. It’s got a nice texture to it. And while it’s a little colder in the hand, it feels a little less [...]

Read our Galaxy Tab 10.1 review We’re a little more than a week away from the June 8 launch date of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (and the 8.9-inch version as well), and that means it’s just about time for retailers to get their acts together. First out of the gate is Best Buy, which has [...]
Four days ago Apple got a court order to smell what the Samsung is cooking. And now it would seem that Samsung is looking to play a game of “You show me yours, I’ll show you mine”. With this request, Samsung is looking to catch a glimpse of the yet to be announced “iPhone 4S”, [...]

We first saw the prototype a few weeks back but now we’re getting a look at it in all of its blurrycam glory. Again, it looks like this will be a [...]
Easily one of the hottest tablets to date the Samsung Galaxy 10.1 has once again been found showing off for the FCC while sporting a new model number of GT-P7310. This new variant does not feature the 3G radio we’ve seen in some others and opts to only offer WiFi support. Originally it was thought [...]
The Samsung Galaxy S II was released earlier this month and it has already passed up the iPhone 4 in the UK. Yay! That much is according to uSwitch.com, anyway, who monitors sales and mobile searches. Is this really a victory for Samsung, though- The iPhone 4 was released last summer to all regions and [...]
The Droid Charge has been out just over a week, and is a solid device. Samsung has always given us fairly “moddable” phones, and have been doing it for quite a while…it’s not a huge surprise that the mod community is quick to pounce, successfully, on a custom ROM.

I know you all are just like me and are excited and anxiously awaiting the Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 to hit store shelves. Its super thin and will most likely be a big seller. I think 8.9″ is the perfect size and feels just right in the hand. Recently we mentioned the Tab 10.1 would [...]
Though, the term “by summer” is pretty vague, as we have seen from past experiences with such devices as the Samsung Vibrant, and more recently the T-Mobile G2. However, having an official word like this does relieve a lot of the thoughts on when we will see an update to the issues that a lot [...]

Got a fun little Phantip a few minutes ago showing off a new Samsung device for Sprint. No word yet on the official Sprint name, but the device is being identified as the SPH-D600 which was leaked in a recent FCC filing a few weeks ago as a midlevel, 4G enabled device. Specs that can [...]
Let us not forget about the little guys. The Samsung Replenish (read our initial review) has received a little (4.6-megabyte) update that “includes Exchange Active Sync and security enhancements.” Hey, not the most exciting update in the world.
