BlackBerry Classic Smartphone Hearkens Back To Company’s Heritage

BlackBerry has lost most of its once dominant market share (in the U.S.) arguably because it has refused for so long to change and adapt to the way modern touchscreen smartphones were being built.
In its decline, the company has decided that instead of fighting from a position of retreat against other touchscreen smartphones, it would aggressively push what once made BlackBerry phones iconic -- their design, solid build, and of course, physical QWERTY keyboard, all now made to work with the modern and advanced BlackBerry 10 operating system.

Samsung Wants To Start Galaxy S6 From Scratch With ‘Project Zero’

Samsung hasn't been doing too well financially over the last few quarters. Its sales have fallen, and its profits have sharply declined by as much as 60 percentyear over year. Samsung has been getting quite a bit of criticism over the design and materials of its Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4 and Galaxy S5 devices, but the company didn't seem willing to pay attention to that criticism as market inertia and big advertising budgets continued to make its phones successful.

Samsung Gear VR 'Innovator Edition' Coming Soon

Owners of the Galaxy Note 4 will have a new toy to play with early next month with the launch of Samsung's Gear VR Innovator Edition. Like Google's Explorer Edition, this version of Samsung's VR headgear allows users to check out the hardware before the retail release. Presumably, Samsung is looking for user feedback to fine-tune the hardware as well as developer feedback regarding apps designed specifically for this headset.
According to some very small print on the product page, this Innovator Edition was created for "innovative consumers, specifically VR enthusiasts, developers, mobile experts and professionals, and early technology adopters." The drawback with this headset is that it depends on the Galaxy Note 4 for its content, which sports a 5.7-inch screen with a 2560 x 1440 resolution.

With phones such as the Galaxy S5 and HTC One, we can shoot super detailed images, edit them and adjust the focus afterwards, and use both the front and rear cameras at the same time.

The War Is Over: Samsung Has Finally Capitulated To Apple — As These Two Phones Launched Last Night Show

The end of the war was dramatic, although it was months coming: Samsung reported a staggering 20% drop in sales and an even worse 49% collapse in its profits because its flagship Galaxy S5 phone — one of those big Android phablets — just failed to sell in the last quarter.

Why Sony's Smartphone Woes Should Worry Samsung

Before Apple became its nemesis, the major foreign rival for Samsung Electronics was Sony. The Japanese company was far ahead of Samsung in developing innovative devices that consumers craved, and Samsung’s rise as a global power neatly coincided with Sony’s decline. Samsung is the top television brand around the world, for instance, while Sony’s TV business has lost money year after year. Samsung is the world’s top smartphone, while Sony has just 3.5 percent of the market worldwide.
