Samsung is now sending termination notices to Android 7 users on Galaxy devices, informing them that the Samsung Members app and service will stop working on their devices in about a month.

The CPU of the Exynos 1580 moves to a three-cluster design with one prime Cortex-A720 core (2.9GHz), three big A720 cores (2.6GHz) and four A520 (1.95GHz). This alone represents a major performance boost compared to the 1480, which used ARMv8 cores.

Lately, Samsung Electronics has been in the news headlines too often for the wrong reasons. Workers are striking, the company is losing key semiconductor clients, the mass production roadmap for the Texas chip factory got pushed back to 2026, the public One UI 7.0 update isn't coming this year, and more and more people are beginning to think that the company lost its spirit of innovation.

According to a report from Business Korea, Samsung is facing yield-related issues with its 3nm Exynos 2500 chips. Yield refers to the percentage of all chips that pass the quality certification while the rest are discarded. While Samsung has expressed faith in its second-generation 3nm process and the Exynos 2500 chip, the Business Korea report claims the yields are low and has failed to offer actual figures.

Samsung Rumored To Bring ‘Battery AI’ To Its Galaxy S25 Series, Boosting The Total Backup By Up To 10 Percent At The Same Performance Level

quality control on software updates is hard, for sure, but it shouldn't be this hard to spot something so obvious. We're talking about the lock screen and touchscreen not working anymore after the update.

Samsung India has been providing a free display replacement for affected devices since July last year. The eligible devices included the Galaxy S20 series and the Galaxy Note 20 series. The company has now expanded this list to include the Galaxy S21 series and the Galaxy S22 series.

Basically it received a score of 8.5/10. Not a fairphone, but better nevertheless.

They're finally coming stateside.

Personally, for this price, the A34 is a better deal than this device. You get a better processor and IP water resistance. Unless, you need the headphone and 1 more year of software updates.

The phone has a No Battery Mode, allowing it to run without a battery when plugged into the USB-C port.

The performance is not good. Considering, the slow storage as well as the old snapdragon 680. You would be better off spending more to get a better Samsung model or even something like a Xiaomi.
