Samsung debuted its Galaxy S24 Ultra as a flagship device and received immensely positive reviews all around. Despite being high-end, it has a few issues, and a tipster poked at it for false advertising.
Transparently, the Galaxy S24 Ultra brought dozens of novelties, but unfortunately, it had a few issues. Samsung didn’t care and fixed most of them with the initial software updates. But some issues are yet to be fixed, and a well-known popular tipster takes it as a golden opportunity and has called for a class action lawsuit against Samsung for false advertising.
A post on X shared by a tipster (via- SamMobile), unveiled that the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s screen feels grainy at low brightness levels, and Samsung has not acknowledged the issue yet, which seems quite disappointing. Not only this, but a tipster called Samsung a fraud just because of the grainy screen issue that created inconvenience for some units.
The smartphone’s camera has defective color shades, and its telephoto camera oversharpens things. The long-telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom on the phone has issues regarding hardware, creating white objects to “glow.” He may be referring to the potential issue of overexposing white or light-colored subjects. Apart from all this, he also claims that the outcome of the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s telephoto camera doesn’t match exactly what Samsung claims in the advertisement.
According to the tipster, the bottom loudspeaker of the phone has a design defect, and the S Pen slot appears crooked. But despite all of these issues, the Galaxy S24 series breaks the sales record of its predecessor. Regarding all these issues, the tipster has requested that American users not purchase the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
Samsung and Apple are two common brands that play a catfight to introduce new products and features to compete with each other. Now Apple will reportedly begin mass production of its first foldable iPhone in late 2026.
Apple is the toughest contender in the tech industry, but despite that, it has yet to introduce its first foldable device. Finally, it appears that Apple is conscious of debuting in the foldable market, as a report says Apple will begin mass production of its first foldable iPhone by the end of 2026.
On the other hand, Apple’s biggest rival, Samsung, is already about to debut its sixth-generation foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. An admirable fact is that, after facing tough challenges in China, Samsung is leading the global foldable market. But once Apple debuts in the foldable market, the Korean giant will undoubtedly have to face more challenges and fight for a leading position in the foldable market.
The competition is getting savage, and its peak could be seen when the first foldable iPhone hits the market. It is being reported by a tipter that Apple is set to start mass production of a foldable iPhone. Although Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo previously revealed that the company could introduce a 20.3-inch MacBook with a foldable display in 2027,.
Display supply chain insider Ross Young also pointed out Apple’s development of a 20-inch foldable hybrid device, set for a 2026 or 2027 release. A well-reliable source, Mark Gurman, also stated that he was “exploring a dual-screen, foldable MacBook/iPad hybrid.” If the reports are to be believed, Apple has “accelerated” its work on foldable devices. It is also reported that Apple is exploring 7.9-inch and 8.3-inch screen sizes for a foldable iPhone.
Samsung plans to expand its flagship Galaxy S series by launching the next-generation Galaxy S25 series early next year, promising a mesmerizing novelty known as Battery AI.
It has already been reported that the Galaxy S25 Ultra is expected to come with no battery or charging upgrades, as compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which has a 5000mAh battery capacity. By this prospect, the Galaxy S25 is expected to have a 5000mAh battery, which somehow is quite disappointing. Although the brand has yet to unveil the battery specs,.
But no upgrades in the ratio of batteries doesn’t mean there’s no upgrade in the battery’s performance. Yes! You read that right, as Samsung aspires to raise that backup by up to 10% with something named ‘Battery AI.’ Maybe this is the next step to expand the features in Galaxy AI. Samsung has already introduced generative AI features under the title ‘Galaxy AI’. Transparently, these AI features are the key reason behind raising sales.
Although there’s a lack of official and enough details of Batter AI, judging by the name, Battery AI could be an intelligent feature baked into the next version of Galaxy AI. This is being reported by a tipster (PandaFlash) on X that an unnamed source informed him of this feature, and users can experience a 5.10% increase in the total runtime.
Software designed to upgrade battery life often comes with downsides. It’s possible that it can slow down your device’s CPU and GPU downclocking and not achieve anything at all. However, in some particular scenarios, the 5G modem’s maximum throughput is also limited.
Noticeably, the tipster didn’t mention exactly how battery AI will work or if this feature will arrive for the Galaxy S25 series. Since the Galaxy S25 series is next in line, it is expected that it could bring this novelty.
