Samsung Galaxy Nexus Reviewed

 The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is among one of the most hyped smartphones for the Galaxy series. The original Nexus was to be a game changer in the phone industry, but it didn't exactly launch as well as some would have thought. The beauty in the Nexus lineup is that it is vanilla Android, no other bloatware running on top, which means the Nexus line up is among the first to have the latest and greatest version of Android. 

Samsung Epic 4G Touch Reviewed

 The original Samsung Epic 4G was somewhat of a disappointment for customers, while others delighted in the changes it had from the original Galaxy S. The glaring difference was the inclusion of a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, which is definitely a polarizing addition. The Epic 4G Touch is the follow up and the first U.S. release of the Galaxy S 2, and this time, it's not bringing a physical QWERTY keyboard with it.

Introducing the Samsung Galaxy Note

It was reported before on the Samsung Galaxy News Blog that a hybrid phone / tablet would be on its way from Samsung.  Originally, it was thought to be named the Samsung Galaxy Q, and now it seems like its actually been unveiled at the IFA.  Named the Samsung Galaxy Note, the non-phone, non-tablet device is Samsung's latest invention for the Galaxy line up.  It features a 5.3 inch screen and a stylus pen, merging the old school train of thought for smart devices while bringing in the newer designs of modern tablets.  Some may consider this a really big smartphone or a really small tablet, so it will be interesting to see how well Samsung can market the device.

Two Extra Fast Devices from Samsung

Samsung has announced that at the IFA in Berlin, later this week, they will reveal an LTE enabled Samsung Galaxy S2 as well as an LTE enabled Galaxy Tab 8.9.  The LTE version of the Samsung Galaxy S2 has a 4.5 inch Super AMOLED Plus display while the Tab 8.9 keeps its extremely slim figure and an 8.9 inch display.  The IFA is shaping up to be a very exciting even for Android devices, and Samsung is really raising the bar for their products.

Samsung Galaxy Precedent

It looks like Wal-Mart and Tracfone will be offering the Samsung Galaxy Precedent, an entry level Android powered smartphone, with no contractual obligations attached.  It's expected to be below $150, while still featuring Android 2.2, an 800 MHz processor and a 2 megapixel camera.  It's not too bad for the price, and easily competes with the entry level LG Optimus line up that's offered on all major and regional carriers.

Samsung Gets New Naming Schema

It looks like Samsung is changing up the ways they name and label their smartphones.  They will be keeping the main names, Galaxy, Wave and Omnia, but will be adding letter designations based on the market they're going after.  The Galaxy line will remains as the Android flagship, the Wave the Bada (Samsung's own OS) flagship and the Omnia will remain the Windows Phone 7 flagship names.  The difference comes in the letters after the main name.

Samsung Galaxy Fit Review

Samsung has been on a dominant spree in the smartphone market, especially for higher end devices. That doesn't mean they've forgotten the middle tier and entry level markets. The Samsung Galaxy Fit is the entry level version of the Samsung Galaxy S. For people who can't quite afford the Galaxy S, the Galaxy Fit may be the device to check out.
