    Samsung Galaxy Fit & Fit e Launched in US & Canada

    Samsung has officially launched its latest fitness trackers Galaxy Fit & Fit e in the US & Canada. Both wearables have already gone on purchase in major European & Asian countries (not in India) on May 31st. In Canada, Galaxy Fit is available to purchase for $149.99 and Fit e priced at $69.99. In the US, for bigger Galaxy Fit, you have to count $99.99. The shipping date is June 18, though Fit e is still not on sale and we hope it available to purchase in the few days.

    Last two years, Gear Fit2 & Gear Fit2 Pro was one of the best trackers in the market, and now Samsung tries to go one step ahead. The company offered a full-color AMOLED display and promised a one-week long battery life. The 5 ATM water resistance technology will save wearables from extra damage. The Galaxy Fit comes with Black & Silver colors, and Fit e has Black, Silver & Yellow color options.

    Samsung introduced Galaxy Fit & Fit e along with Galaxy Watch Active, Galaxy Buds, Galaxy Fold & Galaxy S10 series smartphones. All the remaining devices are available in the market, but Samsung put these trackers on hold. Finally, on May 31st, both available for pre-orders and now widely available in all Samsung stores and Samsung partnered stores through online & offline.

    This week, Xiaomi has launched its 4th generation Mi Band 4 in the market with some striking features, like multi-color display, on-screen notifications, NFC, voice assistant, and built-in microphone. Samsung & Xiaomi are both offering feature packed fitness bands so it will be interesting to see which will grab more attention.

  • AT&T Cancelled all Galaxy Fold Pre-orders

    AT&T Cancelled all Galaxy Fold Pre-orders

    After the Best Buy, now AT&T has cancelled all the pre-orders for Samsung Galaxy Fold. Today, AT&T has sent emails to all the customers to inform them the company has automatically canceled all the pre-orders. Samsung is taking too much time to declare an official release date for Galaxy Fold, and that is not in favor of customers. Many time Samsung said the company is working on a proper solution, and soon it will declare launch date. But that is not happening soon, that’s why AT&T finally decided to take this decision. AT&T said it would refund all the credit if charged and will give a $100 promotion card within the next 60 days in customers account.

    In the previous mail, the company said, it is working on the issue, and soon it will come up with the final launch date. In the last few weeks, we are getting too much news about the progress of the Galaxy Fold. In the recent interview, the Samsung spokesperson promised that the company would soon announce the release date. Many estimates it might relaunch in July with improved quality and South Korea be the first country.

    The other retailer, Best Buy, has already cancelled all the pre-orders and said the company would notify customers if there is news from Samsung. Last month, Samsung requested all customers to confirm their orders and be patient.

Even Samsung’s mid-range devices in Galaxy A series & Galaxy M series have received essential updates from time to time, so it was necessary for Samsung to release an important update for the Galaxy S9 & S9+ smartphones. You can check for the update from Settings and after that Install Update. The update may soon release for other Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ varients smartphones.

  • Galaxy Fold may Release in July, With Exclusive Game ‘Traha’

    Galaxy Fold may Release in July, With Exclusive Game ‘Traha’

    There is no official statement from Samsung for the release date of the first foldable phone. But now news coming from South Korea claiming Samsung is planning to launch Galaxy Fold in July 2019, this has been quoted by a Samsung executive. Reports that Galaxy Fold may be released in August are now sidelined by this latest statement of a Samsung executive. This news has been confirmed by a Korean publisher NewsTomato, who quoted the head of the IM division of Samsung Electronics.

    We also have news that Samsung and Nexon are working on the exclusive game for Galaxy Fold to use the phone’s hardware & software at the customer’s benefit. The Nexon’s massive hit game ‘Traha’ will be the first exclusive foldable game for Galaxy Fold. Traha is MMORPG game for mobile devices & it is currently available to download in South Korea. Previously, on May 17, Samsung & Nexon had shared some images of ‘Traha’ for Fold device and announced to give free coupons for the first few customers but later removed for some reason. Now the Galaxy Fold has taken too much time to release so we may see the game on the Fold on its launch date.

    Galaxy Fold

    According to a Max Weinbach, a Samsung leaker, we can get information that the company is going to launch a device in July. Originally the device was planned to launch on 26th May in the US, but the date was postponed due to screen issues in the review process. After the screen breaking issue, Samsung has postponed the launching date without giving any fix date and focused on the improvement of the Galaxy Fold.

    In order to raise the quality of the product, the company inserted the Galaxy Fold shield into the main body and minimized exposure of the folded area. Earlier, Samsung informed customers about the cancellation of pre-orders in case they failed to ship the device before 31st May. Whereas those who can wait for the next announcement had the option to keep their orders continue. Best Buy has already canceled all pre-orders due to unpredictability in launching date of the device.

    Whereas the launching was planned in June, but the process of stabilization work was longer than planned. Now we have news that Galaxy Fold will be probably launched in July. We can expect that Samsung may release the device in South Korea before it’s an international release.
