Court Tells Samsung to Show Apple Five of Its Unreleased Phones

Is there any danger of Apple cribbing ideas from Samsung, who was ordered in the patent-infringement case to show them five unreleased phones and tablets? Nah, I doubt it—but it’s a strike against Samsung, for sure. https://gizmodo.com/samsung-follows-through-on-apple-lawsuit-threat-5794785 Sometimes, companies’ products are so similar to one another, it’s like they peeked at them during the development…

Samsung Infuse Review: Oh Finally, a Phone for Giants

A list of people who might need a phone that sprawls as far and wide as the Infuse: Godzilla, Shaq, the Nathan’s hot dog contest winner who isn’t the Japanese guy, people who’d giggle every time they say, “My phone is bigger than yours.” WHY IT MATTERS The funny thing about choices—at least when it…

The Super Clear Displays of the Future

The iPhone 4’s beautiful Retina Display is a little less beautiful today. Why? Because at SID 2011, an exhibition about displays, companies have revealed screens that were transparent, tablets that did glasses-less 3D and screens clearer than Apple’s fabled Retina. Here are the coolest screens from SID 2011: Samsung 10.1-inch 300ppi display: A display that’s…

The Samsung Cube Camera, Too Bizarre to Exist

A recent interview with Samsung’s camera division yielded some interesting bits about their lenses—but the real star was this photo of lost prototypes. The model with the three vintage-y dials is gorgeous. But the cube? Uhh. Uhhh. We’re all for experimenting with form factors, but I can’t imagine anyone wanting to whip out a cube-shaped…

Now That Samsung Is Making Lightbulbs, Maybe They’ll Be Cheaper

Samsung is getting into the LED lightbulb game. And they may have the manufacturing clout to drive the price of the bulbs down because they’re making all the parts in house. As the phase-out of power-hungry incandescent lighting begins to take effect in 2012, other technologies, like the more costly LED and CFLs will have…

The Samsung Galaxy S II Is Going to Be Called Something Stupid

Last year, my friends told me they loved their new Fascinate (or Vibrant/Captivate/Epic) and I thought what the hell kind of dumb name for a dumpphone that was. But I was wrong! It’s a Galaxy S! An amazing Android phone. Well, I’m not entirely wrong. The carriers or whomever that is re-branding these phones are…

Samsung’s 2560×1600 Screen Is the First Retina Display for Tablets

The debate about when a “retina display” for tablets will exist is over: Samsung’s new 10.1-inch, 2560×1600 display is it. With a crazy pixel density of 300dpi, it rivals what Apple considers a retina display for a phone. But it’s for tablets. https://gizmodo.com/the-iphone-4-retina-display-controversy-5561351 The ultra-high resolution display uses PenTile RGBW technology, which made headlines with…

Samsung’s Foldable Display Will Let You Stuff Giant Tablets in Your Pants

Tiny tablets’ major advantage over the 10-inch crowd: They’ll fit in your pocket (especially if you’re the type of person who wears cargo pants). Samsung’s latest foldable, creaseless AMOLED display will let you fold a tablet in half—effectively making bigger tablets pocketable. Back in 2008, the South Korean company showcased a foldable OLED mobile phone…

The Laptop of the Future, Version 1.0

Google’s CR-48 Chrome laptop was a rough draft of the kind of computer people will be using eventually—lean, fast, utterly and completely connected—but it had its problems. (Oh lord, the trackpad.)

What (and Why) Is Google’s Chromebox?

Google just gave a sly mention of a desktop version of Chrome OS plugged into a Samsung computer, seen above. And then they didn’t say anything else, other than the fact that it’s coming… sometime later. It looks small. Does putting a Cloud-centric, mobile-purposed OS in a desktop box make a lot of sense?

The First Android Tablet Built for Humans

The Galaxy Tab 10.1 is amazing in two ways. https://gizmodo.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-killed-and-reborn-as-worlds-thi-5784427 It’s the first tablet that’s as immaterial as the iPad 2, in form and weight and feel.

The Latest “World’s Largest 3DTV” Crown-Wearer Is Samsung, at 75 Inches

Samsung has a 3DTV that’s almost as wide as the average bent-knee, platform shoe-wearing young Korean woman. That’s big! 75-inches diagonally, in fact. The D9500 Smart TV will be propping up Korean walls first, and US walls from August for around $13,000. You’ve got to feel sorry for LG and all those 72-inch 3DTVs they’ve…

AT&T’s Biggest (and Thinnest and Fastest) Phone

The Infuse 4G doesn’t feel quite as spectacular as I remember at CES—it’s missing that feeling of heft, that feeling of quality construction, subbing in a less dense plastic—but the 4.5-inch Super AMOLED Plus screen is still a rich-hued stunner, and its 8.99mm of thinness effectively camouflages the serious size of the phone, which inches…
