It’s not enough for mobile innovation to simply move in lockstep with the rest of the world. We need to stay ahead of the curve so that our technology can help us alter the way we interact with the world and make our lives simpler. That is why we strive to continuously defy the rules.

To Begin the Next Chapter in Smartphone History, We Must Break the Rules

In 2011, the Galaxy Note combined the convenience and portability of smartphones with the large screen and notebook-like functionality of tablets. Some objected to the 5.3-inch screen – considered huge at the time – but Note created a legacy where a large screen is now the norm. Even the S Pen surprised everyone. It allowed people to combine creativity and productivity – whenever inspiration struck, they could quickly jot down their ideas and thoughts in Samsung Notes. In 2019, we once again dared to redefine smartphones. We launched our Galaxy Z Fold series and it brought a whole new form factor to the mobile phone industry. Our industry-leading foldable design has changed the way people use their phones. With Flex mode, video calls are hands-free and easier. And multitasking with multiple windows is also a breeze, as your phone becomes a tablet in the blink of an eye. And once again the industry has taken notice, with many mobile phone companies now following in our footsteps to make flyers the next big thing.

Listening to customers and taking notes are two ways to innovate

In a sea of smartphone sameness and repetitive upgrades, our goal remains the same: to recognise the signs of change — by listening to your input — and to keep delivering mobile experiences that enable us all to develop.

Many of you were disappointed when Samsung failed to announce a new Galaxy Note last year. You adored the Galaxy Note series’ unrivalled inventiveness and efficiency, which allowed you to go from gaming bliss to high-octane productivity in the twinkling of an eye. You gushed over the realistic S Pen, which many compare to writing with ink. We haven’t forgotten about the adventures you like.

samsung patents a multifolding laptop computer called the Galaxy Book

Samsung dominates the foldable market. In the Netherlands, the Galaxy Z-series smartphones are also quite popular. The current versions have sold 5.6 times as much as their predecessors, according to a press statement issued last week by the business. The business is working on new electronics with a flexible screen in the background.

Samsung Galaxy Book

Consider the Galaxy Tab foldable tablet, but the company’s plans go much beyond that. Samsung Electronics has patented a one-of-a-kind laptop that is both foldable and foldable. It’s like a Galaxy Book from the future.

Samsung laptop with many folding options

Samsung Electronics submitted a patent for a “Multi-foldable electronic device” with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) on July 2, 2021. On January 13, 2022, the 47-page paper was accepted and released. A Samsung laptop with a flexible display and a physical keyboard is described in the documentation. Unlike the Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Fold, the flexible screen does not fold lengthwise. Samsung has instead chosen a screen that folds in half like a book.

Samsung Galaxy Book

Two hinges, similar to those seen on a contemporary laptop, are built-in. This allows you to close the laptop normally. The device may then be folded. It is possible to fold the left part (1 display component and 1 keyboard part) over the right part. In addition, the device.

Samsung includes two batteries in this laptop computer, one on the left side and the other on the right side, similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 folding smartphones.

Samsung Galaxy Book


Samsung has also included a helpful clip with a hook to prevent the gadget from accidentally unfolding. Various magnets are also built in to combat this. Users also have access to audio player capabilities while folded up – there are three buttons on the side for rewind, fast forward, and pause. It’s a brilliant idea that’s unlike anything else we’ve seen in the realm of folding computers so far. We’ve mostly seen laptops with a bendable screen up until now.

Samsung Galaxy Book

The flexible screen, on the other hand, serves an entirely opposite purpose this time: it allows the gadget to be carried more compactly. Furthermore, an exceptionally big/broad display may be used in this manner, allowing the user to work even more efficiently.

For the time being, it’s unclear whether Samsung intends to produce such a multi-foldable laptop in the future. The gadget would be a good fit for Samsung’s Galaxy Book family, which includes 2-in-1 laptops. The Samsung Galaxy Book devices are now unavailable in the Netherlands, however, this may change in the future.

The First MRAM based In-Memory Computing Demonstration by Samsung

Samsung has remained at the forefront of technological innovation, both in mobile and other electronic devices. This week, the Korean behemoth reaffirmed that reality by becoming the first business in the world to demonstrate a functioning in-memory computing process using MRAM.

Samsung

The processor chip, which exists only for this purpose and is very efficient at it despite being one of the most power-hungry components in devices like smartphones and computers, performs the majority of the computing functions in devices like smartphones and computers.

The memory (or RAM) of a device, on the other hand, serves the conventional job of temporarily storing bits of data for the CPU to retrieve whenever it needs it. This memory allows for far quicker data transmission with the CPU than a storage drive, but it is also much smaller in size—4GB, 6GB, 8GB, or 16GB depending on your standard computing equipment.

However, there has been a lot of experimentation in the hunt for an efficient and effective in-memory computing solution for years. While other solutions have been established utilising different forms of RAM (such as PRAM or RRAM), MRAM in-memory computing has yet to be prototyped in a workable form, as SamMobile points out. At least until today, when Samsung has succeeded in producing the first prototype.

DRAM is used in modern smartphones and computers; MRAM is a completely different species.

DRAM, or Dynamic Random Access Memory, is the main memory of most of the computing devices we use on a daily basis, such as smartphones and PCs.

This sort of memory is dynamic and volatile, which means that it can only hold data as long as the device is switched on and a current is running through it, and it must be refreshed or overwritten on a regular basis to keep that data. 

Samsung MRAM

MRAM, or Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory, on the other hand, is a sort of non-volatile memory that can keep bits of data even when no electric current is flowing through it. Memory is stored using magnetic charges rather than electric charges, as is the case with regular RAM MRAM’s key advantage is its incredibly low power consumption, yet it has had problems integrating with present day technology, such as keeping write error rates low enough. Because of its low resistance, it is also more unfriendly to in-memory computing than DRAM.

Samsung MRAM

MRAM technology, according to Samsung, will truly shine in artificial intelligence processing duties once it is further developed. Samsung’s in-memory computing method picked out individual faces in photos with a 93 percent accuracy rate, and it recognised handwritten numerals with a 98 percent accuracy rate when tested in AI applications.

Globally certified by SGS for best picture quality is Samsung QD-Display

Samsung Display, a worldwide leader in premium displays, said today that its QD (Quantum Dot) Display, the new standard for next-generation TV picture quality, has been validated by SGS, a global certification firm. The Real Color Tones, Pure RGB Luminance, and Ultrawide Viewing Angle certifications indicate the QD-Display is certified to faithfully reflect the true tone of all-natural colours with a clear, bright screen at any viewing angle. Samsung Display commenced mass production of the QD-Display in November.

Samsung QD-Display

As the video content industry, production technologies, platforms and communications infrastructure develop rapidly, the demand for premium content is also increasing rapidly, said Ho-Sun,  head of strategic marketing. for the Large Screen division of Samsung Display. QD-Display is the answer to that question and offers consumers a new standard for viewing high-quality content with the highest picture quality. QD-Display has received  True Color Tones certification through SGS assessment. 

Samsung QD-Display

Based on BT.2020 [1], the latest color gamut standard published by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the color gamut (or gamut of colors that can be expressed at a specific luminance) is 90% or more than that of Based on DCIP3 [2], the color volume (or gamut of colors that can be expressed as a function of the brightness and darkness levels of the screen) reaches 120% of the criteria. DCIP3 standards, the color volume usually drops below 100%, “explained Samsung Display. The RGB luminance certification highlights the exact and precise expression of the RGB primary colors (red, green and blue) of the QD-Display without compensate for luminance. 

This certification is issued when the sum of the luminance of each RGB main color is equal to or greater than the luminance value of the white color created by the RGB combination. The white luminance of the QD-Display is 1000 nits and the combined luminance number of each RGB has been evaluated as equivalent.

Samsung QD-Display

The QD-Display was also awarded the Ultrawide Viewing Angle certification after an examination of the display’s visual quality in any position with numerous viewers. When viewing a 65-inch TV from a 60-degree angle, the QD-Display maintained more than 80% of the frontal brightness, whereas WOLED and LCD displays of the same size declined to 53% and 35%, respectively, according to Samsung Display’s internal evaluation.

“Typically, there are changes in colour or brightness depending on your viewing position because light travels in straight lines,” according to Samsung Display. QD-Displays decrease picture quality deterioration because of quantum dots’ optical qualities and capacity to scatter light broadly like a dome shape, so you can watch content as if you’re sitting front and centre at any angle.”

Samsung trademarks its AI Neural Quantum processor feature on TVs.

Samsung has filed a trademark application for a Neural Quantum Processor for televisions. Possibly a variation of the Neo Quantum Processor, which was recently announced. At CES 2022, Samsung unveiled the slew of new items.

Neural Quantum Processor

It all started with the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, which was eagerly anticipated. Samsung also unveiled The Freestyle, a new portable projector, as well as a new monitor portfolio for 2022, including the Odyssey Ark gaming monitor and many new TV models. The Samsung TVs have a new Neo Quantum Processor 2022. The image quality is upgraded to a magnificent 8K image experience by applying 16 neural networks and artificial intelligence.

Samsung is still working on a TV processor with artificial intelligence called the Neural Quantum Processor, according to a new trademark application.

Samsung’s Neural Quantum Processor is designed for televisions.

Samsung Electronics registered the name “Neural Quantum Processor” as a trademark in South Korea and the United Kingdom on January 4, 2022. The application is classified as Class 9 and is described as a “chipset for televisions.”

Neural Quantum Processor

For the time being, no more information is available. It’s unclear whether the Neural Quantum Processor is merely another moniker for the Neo Quantum Processor or whether Samsung is developing a new model.

For the first time in 2019, Samsung released a TV with a Quantum Processor that also employs machine learning technologies to upscale video to 8K resolution. Samsung produced the first Neo QLED TV in 2021. The Neo AI Quantum Processor 8K was also announced at the time. It’s possible that the new Neural Quantum Processor will expand on this.

Neural Quantum Processor

Despite the fact that Samsung has already shown numerous new TVs at CES 2022, the firm does not appear to have divulged all of the specifications. Samsung, for example, has gotten a 2022 CES Best of Innovation Award for an unofficially announced Samsung 65″ QD-Display TV, according to CNET. It’s the first RGB self-emitting Quantum Dot OLED display in the world. A 2022 Neo Quantum Processor is also included with this Samsung TV. Today or tomorrow, we may hear more about this. The CES event will take place from January 7 to January 7, 2022.

CES 2022 showcases Samsung Flex S and Flex G foldable Display panels.

People are already asking what will happen next, even if foldable smartphones aren’t yet commonplace. Samsung’s current smartphones only fold down the middle once. What if the panels could be bi-fold or even tri-fold.

Samsung Flex S and Flex G screens

That would undoubtedly be the stuff of fantasies. It will provide mobile devices with a whole new level of adaptability. Samsung has been working on this for quite some time. At CES 2022, the business showed us a peek of the future with its Flex S and Flex G screens.

A multi-foldable product may be made with the Flex S panel. The bi-folding panel unfolds into an “S” form, providing for a substantial increase in screen space. It offers unrivalled versatility, allowing consumers to use a device like a smartphone, tablet, or AI device by separating the display depending on how the gadget is folded.

The Flex G panel was designed for inward-folding multi-foldable items. The display is shielded from external damage or scratches thanks to the panel’s distinctive “G” shape. This in-folding idea has other advantages as well, such as making the gadget more portable because it can be folded twice.

at CES 2022 in Las Vegas, Samsung Display gave us a first peek at these panels. We’ve already seen several Samsung patents outlining similar concepts, but seeing everything in person was incredible. It remains to be seen if these screens will make their way into Samsung handsets. Many of you may agree that it should happen as soon as possible.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra features a 108-megapixel camera with a Super Clear Lens.

 This week, Samsung officially unveiled the Galaxy S21 FE. Meanwhile, Galaxy aficionados are anticipating the launch of Samsung’s new Galaxy S22 series next month. In recent years, a lot has been learned about the three predicted models. The Galaxy S22 Ultra will be the next top model; the design has already been leaked, and now an infographic has emerged online, indicating that many of the specifications have been finalised.

upgraded 108MP camera on the Galaxy S22 Ultra

Zaryab Khan, a well-known YouTuber who goes by the moniker XeeTechCare and does intriguing tech films, released the specs sheet over Twitter. The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra will have a 6.8″ QHD+ display (30801440 pixels), as evidenced by the product specification list. It features a 2x Dynamic AMOLED display. The gadget is 228 grammes in weight.

The upgraded 108MP camera on the Galaxy S22 Ultra

With an f/2.2 lens, a 40MP selfie camera is included. A triple camera can be seen on the back, with the main camera being upgraded to 108 megapixels. This is the first time a ‘Super Clear Lens’ with an f/1.8 aperture and OIS has been added to a camera. A 12MP ultra-wide-angle camera with Dual Pixel AF (f/2.2) is also included. Finally, there are two 10MP telephoto cameras with optical zoom of 3x and 10x integrated into.

upgraded 108MP camera on the Galaxy S22 Ultra

The Super Clear Lens appears to be a focus for Samsung. Reflections and glare should be reduced as a result of this. Previously, it was apparent that the upgraded 108MP camera will provide much higher image quality and a high degree of detail.

The smartphone also looks to be powered by the 4nm Exynos 2200 SoC, according to the spec list. This chipset hasn’t been officially released yet. It’s Samsung’s first chipset to have an AMD graphics processor. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 will be utilised in various countries of the world, including the United States because it is a high-performance SoC. It’s unclear whether Exynos’s equivalent will be just as strong.
