Samsung’s Game Tuner app lets you tweak the resolution and framerate of Android games
On the PC, most gamers rely on the ability of dialing down the resolution of the in-game graphics in order to adjust performance, especially if the situation involves running demanding games on older machines.

A rumored roadmap reportedly shows that Samsung will be using its own GPU on Exynos chipsets in 2017 or 2018.

Although they’re Tizen-based smartwatches, the recently announced Gear S2 and Gear S2 Classic work with many Android handsets – not just from Samsung, but from many other relevant smartphone makers out there.

See the innards of Samsung’s Galaxy S6 edge+ in this “inboxing / unboxing” video

Samsung’s gambit: Is dropping features and being more like Apple really that good of an idea?
What kind of industry is this? When you think about it, it really is ridiculous that an industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars is seeing most of that dough go to just one single company — Apple.
