Google has introduced support for Google Photos on Samsung‘s newest smart TVs, which gives users a simple way to enjoy their pictures and videos on a larger display. This feature was announced in late 2025 and has now started rolling out, but it is limited to certain models.

With this, you can sign in to your Google Photos account on your Samsung TV. After logging in, they can explore their photos through different sections. One of these is the Daily Plus row, which automatically shows a changing selection of memories. This makes it easy to revisit past moments without needing to search manually.

There’s also an option for the Daily Plus app launcher. When opened, it allows users to view their photos in full-screen mode, making the experience more enjoyable on a big TV screen. The Daily Board widget displays photos along with other information, offering a quick and convenient way to see your memories.

To make sure users feel comfortable sharing their screens, privacy options are included. Users can switch between Standard mode and Guest mode.

Standard mode gives a more personalized experience, while Guest mode hides private or sensitive images and videos. This is useful when friends or family members are watching.

However, there is a catch. This feature is only available on selected Samsung TVs released in 2026. Samsung and Google have not yet provided a complete list of supported models, which may cause some confusion for users. Stay tuned for more information.

WhatsApp is adding new emojis to its Android app through a latest beta update, making chats more fun and expressive. These emojis come from the new Unicode 17.0 update, which introduces fresh symbols for users to share their feelings and ideas more easily.

Previously, WhatsApp had already added some emojis from Unicode 16.0. These included a tired face with eye bags, a fingerprint, a dry tree, and more. Now, the app is adding more new emojis and making them available directly in the emoji keyboard.

Some of the new emojis are very interesting. The “Distorted Face” emoji can be used when someone feels confused or stressed. The “Ballet Shoes” emoji is good for talking about dance or shows.

There is also an “Orca” emoji, which is perfect for people who like the sea or animals. Another fun emoji is the “Hairy Creature,” which is inspired by Bigfoot or the Yeti.

There are more emojis like “Landslide,” which shows that things are going out of control, and the “Fight Cloud, which can show a fight or confusion. Music lovers can use the “Trombone” emoji, and the “Treasure Chest” emoji can be used for things like rewards, surprises, or adventure.

Earlier, some of these emojis were already in WhatsApp, but could not be used easily from the keyboard. Now, WhatsApp has made them simple to find and send in chats.

Samsung has brought back attention to its old “Wireless Charger Trio,” a $90 charger that can power three devices at once. Even though it is being shown as a new product on Samsung’s website, it is actually the same charger that first came out around 2020, with no real upgrades.

The charger has two wireless charging spots for phones or earbuds, as well as a special place to charge a Galaxy Watch. It works with Samsung devices and other gadgets that support Qi wireless charging. It sounds useful, especially for people who want to charge everything in one place.

However, the charger feels outdated in 2026. Its charging speed is quite slow compared to newer options. It can charge Samsung phones at up to 15W, but other devices only get 7.5W. Many modern chargers are faster and more efficient.

The big issue is that the charger does not use the newer Qi2 technology, which helps devices snap into the right position using magnets. Because of this, users often have trouble placing their phones correctly, and charging may not start unless the device is perfectly positioned.

Notably, newer Galaxy phones have large camera bumps, which can stop the phone from lying flat on the charger, which is also an issue. This makes charging even more difficult.

While some people still like the convenience of charging multiple devices together, many others are not satisfied. The Wireless Charger Trio still works, but it feels old and less useful compared to newer wireless chargers available today.

Samsung is reportedly preparing to launch its next Galaxy A series phone, Galaxy A27. Ahead of the official launch, the Galaxy A27 has shown up on Geekbench, but the details don’t fully make sense yet.

According to the information via Abhishek Yadav, the Galaxy A27 has been listed on Geekbench with the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 processor, Adreno 710 GPU, 6GB RAM, and Android 16. This looks fine for a mid-range phone.

However, the performance scores are surprisingly low. It scored 777 in single-core and 1802 in multi-core tests, which is weaker than the older Galaxy A26.

This is strange because the Galaxy A26 already performs better, so the A27 should not be slower. Also, the processor setup mentioned in the listing does not match how this chip usually works. This makes the leak look quite confusing.

There is also concern that Samsung might be using an older processor in 2026, which may not be a good choice. In this price range, other brands are offering newer and more powerful chips. Since the Galaxy A2* series sits between budget and premium models, users expect a good balance of performance and price.

However, it is important to remember that early leaks are not always reliable. Sometimes test units give unusual results, or the information may not be final. Samsung could still improve the device before launch. For now, it is better to wait for official details to determine the Galaxy A27’s performance. Stay tuned for more information.

Samsung’s Bespoke washer and dryer had a problem after a recent software update. Updates are usually made to improve devices as they fix small problems and sometimes add new features. But this time, the update created a big issue.

After installing the update, many users said their machines stopped working properly. The main problem is that they cannot wash clothes anymore. Before the update, there was a “more cycles” option on the screen. This option showed different washing choices.

This option disappeared after the update. The screen became blank, so users could not start a wash. This is a serious issue because the machine is made to wash and dry clothes in one unit. It depends on software to control everything. If the software has a problem, the machine cannot do its basic work.

Some users tried to fix the problem themselves. A few people said that changing the screen settings helped. Others said they had to reset the machine many times before it worked again. These fixes are not simple and may not work for everyone.

Samsung knows about the problem, but it has not given a proper solution yet. This has made many users upset, especially because the machine is expensive.

This problem also shows a bigger issue with smart devices. Today, many home appliances use software. This makes them smart and easy to use. But it also means they can stop working if something goes wrong in an update. Stay tuned for more information.

Samsung is making strong progress on its new chip factory in Taylor, Texas. The company has been working on it for about five years. Now, the building work is mostly done, and Samsung has started setting up the machines inside. This is a big step because it means the factory is getting closer to starting its work.

More than 3,000 engineers have come to the site. Some work for Samsung, and others work for companies that make the machines. Their job is to install and set up the equipment. These machines are very big and heavy, with a total weight of about 20,000 tons. They are also very advanced.

The factory will make chips using 2-nanometer technology. This means the chips will be very fast and use less power. Samsung says everything is going as planned. The company expects the factory to start full production by the end of 2026.

Samsung has also started hiring people for the factory. It has posted 178 job openings in 146 different roles. These include technical jobs, safety jobs, and management roles. When the factory is fully ready, it will employ about 1,500 people. Some workers from other Samsung factories may also move to Texas to help in the beginning.

This new factory is very important for Samsung. It will help the company make advanced chips and grow its business. It will also create jobs and support the tech industry in the future.

Gemini Live is making news easier to understand and more interesting to follow. Before, when you asked for news, it only gave short headlines with quick details. Now, it gives better and longer explanations, so you can understand what is really happening.

You can now ask questions while listening to the news. Like, if you hear a story and want to know more, you can simply ask, “tell me more about it.” You don’t have to start again or repeat your question. This makes it feel like a normal conversation.

Most voice assistants only read the news once and stop. They don’t let you ask more questions easily. But Gemini Live is different. It lets you keep talking and learn more about the topics you care about. This helps you understand the news better, instead of just hearing headlines and moving on.

You don’t need to install anything new. If you are already using Gemini Live early access, this feature is ready to use. You just need to start a conversation and ask for the latest news. It will collect information from different sources and explain it in a simple way.

At the same time, the Google Home app is also improving. It now supports Android 16 features like a full-screen look and a smoother back button. This makes the app easier and nicer to use. Stay tuned for more information.

Samsung is getting ready to launch its next foldable phone, the Galaxy Z Fold 8, and leaks about its price have already started coming in. A new leak reveals that the starting price of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 may stay the same as last year, but higher storage options could cost more.

According to the information via @TheGalox_, the base model of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 is expected to come with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, priced at around $1,999. This is the same starting price as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, which is good news for buyers who were worried about a price increase.

However, if you want more storage, you may have to pay extra this time. The 512GB version of the Fold 8 could cost about $2,199, while the top model with 16GB RAM and 1TB storage may go up to $2,499. These prices are higher than last year’s Fold 7, where the 512GB model was priced at $2,119 and the 1TB model at $2,419.

This means Samsung might be keeping the base model price steady but increasing the cost of upgrades. One possible reason could be the rising production costs.

For users, this means choosing the right storage will be important. If you don’t need a lot of space, the base model could still be a good deal. But if you want more storage, you should be ready to spend more money.

While nothing is official yet, these leaks give us a good idea of what to expect from Samsung’s next foldable phone. More details should be revealed soon. Stay tuned for more information.

Google has added a new feature that lets people change their Gmail username. This means you can change the part before “@gmail.com” without making a new account. This feature is already available in the United States and is slowly coming to other countries.

Many people made their email accounts a long time ago. At that time, they chose fun or silly names. But now, those names may feel embarrassing or not suitable for work. Before this update, the only way to fix it was to create a new email account. But that also meant losing old emails, contacts, and important data.

Now, things are finally much easier. You can go to your Google Account settings, click on your profile picture, then select Manage your Google Account option. After that, go to Personal Info, tap on Email, and follow the steps to change your username. It is a simple process and does not take much time.

And the best thing is that your old email address will still work. It will be saved as another email linked to your account. You will still get emails sent to your old address, and you can also use it if needed. This helps you stay connected and not miss anything important.

However, there are a few limits. You can change your username only once every 12 months. Also, you can only create up to three new usernames in total. This new feature is very helpful. It lets you fix your old email name easily without losing your data.

The Galaxy S26 series has three models- Galaxy S26, S26 Plus, and S26 Ultra. Each one is designed for different users. The base Galaxy S26 is compact and easy to handle.

The Weather Company is bringing its Storm Radar app to Android soon. Until now, it was only available for iPhone users. This app helps people check the weather simply and clearly. Weather is important for daily plans, so a good app can really help.

Storm Radar now has a new AI feature to make things easier. Users can ask simple questions like – Is it a good time to go outside? The AI will explain the weather in easy words. It also has detailed radar maps to show weather changes clearly.

Some features are free, but not all. To use advanced tools like the 72-hour radar, users need to pay. The cost is about $4 per month or $20 per year. There is also another plan with extra benefits at a higher price.

There are already many weather apps available for free. Still, Storm Radar wants to stand out by giving more accurate and detailed information. This can help people avoid problems like rain ruining their plans.

For some users, paying for better weather updates may be useful. Others may prefer free apps with basic features. When Storm Radar comes to Android, it will be interesting to see what users choose. 

Storm Radar will reportedly be available soon on Android, including Samsung devices. However, Samsung already offers a weather app, which offers amazing and smart features to provide a better experience. Stay tuned for more information.

Google Pixel 11 Pro has appeared in early leaks, which gives us a simple idea of its design before launch. The phone is expected to arrive in August 2026, and it looks very similar to the previous model. Instead of big changes, Google is making small improvements to the design. It will compete with strong rivals, including the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, which may offer more noticeable upgrades.

The new renders has been shared by Android Headlines. Looking at these renders, the Pixel 11 Pro looks very similar to the Google Pixel 10 Pro. The biggest change is the camera bar on the back. It now appears fully black, which makes the phone look cleaner and more modern.

The rest of the design, including the flat sides and display, stays mostly the same. The bezels are thin, but not as thin as some other flagship phones like the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.

Aside from this, the Pixel 11 Pro is expected to come with a 6.3-inch display. It may run on the new Tensor G6 processor for better performance. The phone could have 16GB RAM, but there is also a chance of 12GB. Storage might start at 256GB.

These images are based on CAD files, which are usually given to case makers before a phone launches. Because of this, they give a good idea of the phone’s size and shape. However, small details like colors or exact finishing may still change in the final version. Still, these renders are useful to understand the overall design. Stay tuned for more information.

Samsung has officially launched its blood pressure monitoring feature for Galaxy Watch users in the United States. Starting March 31, 2026, selected users can now check and track their blood pressure directly from their wrist using a Galaxy Watch and the Samsung Health Monitor app.

The blood pressure monitoring feature is important because high blood pressure is a common health problem. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly half of adults in the US suffer from it. If not managed properly, it can lead to serious problems like heart disease and stroke.

The Galaxy Watch allows users to measure both systolic and diastolic blood pressure along with heart rate. However, it is not a complete replacement for medical devices. Users still need a regular upper-arm blood pressure cuff to set up the feature and recalibrate it every 28 days. This helps improve accuracy.

Notably, this feature is designed for wellness purposes only. It is not meant to diagnose or treat any medical condition. Users should always consult a doctor for proper medical advice.

The blood pressure tool adds to other health features already available on Galaxy Watches. These include ECG readings, irregular heart rhythm alerts, and sleep apnea detection, some of which are cleared by the FDA.

Samsung has also introduced new Galaxy Watch models, which include improved sensors and smart features powered by AI. These watches aim to give users better health insights and a more connected experience.

The rollout of the feature will happen gradually, so not all users will get the feature at once. Stay tuned for more information.

A new update in mobile messaging could make it much easier for iPhone and Android users to stay connected by adding a feature, Messaging-Initiated Video Calls (MIVC). This update is introduced by the GSMA and is called RCS Universal Profile 4.0.

Messaging-Initiated Video Calls means you may be able to start a video call directly from your chat screen. Instead of switching to another app, you could simply press a button inside the conversation and begin a video call.

This feature is expected to work for both one-on-one chats and group chats. It makes communication quicker and more convenient.

The most helpful part of this feature is that people can join the call even if they missed the start. Like, if someone is busy when the call begins, they can join later without any issue. Also, the call details can be saved in the chat, so users can easily see what happened. This keeps everything organized in one place.

This feature could allow smooth video calling between different phones and networks. This is mainly useful for users of Apple and Google devices, who currently do not always get the same features while chatting with each other.

However, there is still no clear answer on when this feature will be available. Neither Apple nor Google has confirmed their support yet. Stay tuned for more information.

Google Maps on Android Auto is getting a major upgrade for electric vehicle (EV) drivers. Starting this week, the app will offer smarter trip planning for thousands of drivers using AI-powered battery predictions.

The new feature works with 16 major EV brands, including Audi, BMW, Chevrolet, Hyundai, Toyota, Volkswagen, and others. It uses real-time data like traffic, road slopes, and weather to give better battery range estimates, helping drivers plan stops and reduce range anxiety.

Using the feature is simple. First, add your car’s make and model in the Google Maps app on your phone. Then, set your destination in the car, and the app will show how much battery your trip will need. You can also enter your current battery level, and Maps will suggest charging stops along the route.

Drivers can even choose how much battery they want left when arriving at their destination. Like, if you want to reach with 80% battery instead of nearly empty, Google Maps will plan extra charging stops and adjust your estimated arrival time to include charging.

Notably, this feature requires Google Maps version 25.44 or newer and only works with compatible EVs. The system does not connect directly to your car, so predictions are based on the information you enter and may not always match real-time driving exactly.

This update makes driving an electric car easier and more reliable. With AI-powered battery predictions on Android Auto, Google Maps helps EV drivers plan smarter routes, manage charging stops, and travel freely.

Samsung is facing growing tension between its management and workers as talks over pay and bonuses have failed. The company’s largest union is now increasing pressure on employees to join a strike.

The union is planning a big strike in May. It said it will publicly share which teams and departments take part in the strike. This is meant to encourage more workers to join. The union also warned that teams that do not participate may not get benefits later, such as better bonuses or improved working conditions.

Earlier, the union had already said that workers who do not join the strike could face negative outcomes. Because of this, pressure is increasing on employees to take part.

Most union members, around about 70%, work in the semiconductor (DS) division, which is very important for the company’s business. The union is focusing on this division because a strike there could strongly affect operations. However, workers in the finished product division are less interested in joining the strike.

The main issue is about performance bonuses. Right now, bonuses are limited to 50% of a worker’s yearly salary. The union believes this limit is unfair and wants it removed so workers can earn more.

On the other hand, the company has offered a different plan. If the semiconductor division becomes the best in the domestic market, more than 10% of profits will be shared as bonuses. This could allow workers to earn more than the current limit through special rewards.

Even after several meetings in late March, both sides could not reach an agreement, and discussions have stopped for now. Stay tuned for more information.

YouTube is finally available on Android Auto, but it doesn’t work the way you might think. You can’t watch videos like on your phone, and there are some important limits to know about.

The main reason behind the limitation is safety. Watching videos while driving is dangerous, so Android Auto restricts apps that could distract drivers. Until now, many people have used third-party apps like CarStream or Fermata Auto to try to play YouTube videos in their car, but it was tricky to get it working.

With the official YouTube app on Android Auto, you can play, pause, and skip videos, but only the audio will play. It means that YouTube works more like a music or podcast app rather than a video app. This makes it useful if you want to listen to podcasts, news, or music from YouTube while driving.

Image via Reddit

There are other limits too. You can’t skip to a specific point in a video, but the skip button only moves to the next video. You also can’t browse YouTube on the car screen, which is expected because Android Auto focuses on keeping drivers safe.

Notably, YouTube on Android Auto needs background playback, which means you must have a YouTube Premium subscription. Free users won’t be able to use it. The cheapest plan, Premium Lite, costs $7.99 per month in the US, while the full Premium plan costs $13.99 per month.

YouTube on Android Auto is mainly for listening to audio content while driving. It’s not for watching videos, and it needs a paid subscription. If you mostly use YouTube for podcasts or music, this update could be helpful.

Samsung has announced that it is starting work on a new technology – silicon photonics. The company shared this news at the OFC 2026 event in Los Angeles.

Silicon photonics is a way to transmit data using light rather than electricity. Using light makes data travel faster and uses less power. This is very useful because AI data centers are growing and need to move a lot of data quickly.

Samsung reportedly announced it is ready to start making these new chips when customers send their designs. The company has already prepared everything needed for production.

First, Samsung will focus on making chips called photonic integrated circuits (PICs). These chips combine many small parts into one. These parts help turn electrical signals into light, send the light, and then turn it back into electrical signals. Earlier, these parts were made separately, but now they are placed on one chip. This makes the system faster and more efficient.

Samsung also said its technology can reach speeds of 224 Gbps per lane. This means future devices can be very fast, up to 1.6 Tbps. At the beginning, the company will sell these chips for optical modules, even though other companies are already in this market.

In the coming years, Samsung plans to improve its technology step by step. It aims to launch optical engines in 2027, better chip packaging in 2028, and full co-packaged optics (CPO) by 2029. This will help it compete strongly in the future. Stay tuned for more information.

Samsung has introduced a new and simple way to help people deal with motion sickness during travel. Many people feel dizzy, nauseous, or uncomfortable when they are in a car, train, or airplane. This happens because the inner ear senses movement, but the eyes may be looking at something still, like a phone. This confuses the brain and causes uneasiness.

For this, Samsung has created the Hearapy app, which works with the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro. The idea is very easy to follow. Before starting your journey, you just need to listen to a special low sound for 60 seconds. This sound is called a 100 Hz tone and is designed to help your body adjust to movement.

This process is based on research from Nagoya University in Japan. Scientists found that this special low sound can activate the balance system in the inner ear. When this system works properly, it reduces the chances of feeling motion sickness. In tests, people felt less stress and fewer symptoms while traveling.

The Hearapy app makes everything simple for users. It automatically sets the correct time and sound level, so there is no need to adjust anything. You just play the sound and get ready for your trip.

Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro are designed to deliver this sound clearly. They also block outside noise, so the tone is not disturbed. This helps the sound work better and improves the results.

Samsung has been ranked as the number one TV brand for 2026. This recognition comes from Consumer Reports, a trusted organization known for testing products and giving honest reviews. The ranking shows that Samsung is doing very well in the TV market and is ahead of many strong competitors.

According to the report released by Consumer Reports, Samsung scored 74 points overall. This score is based on several important factors like product reliability, customer satisfaction, performance, and price. Other major brands followed closely behind. LG Electronics scored 72 points, Roku got 71 points, and Sony scored 70 points.

The rankings have been created using a mix of lab tests and real customer feedback. The survey included people who bought TVs between 2015 and 2025. Experts also tested TVs for picture quality, sound, motion clarity, and HDR performance. Data privacy and security have also been considered in the final scores.

The main reason for Samsung’s top ranking is its strong TV performance. Its 65-inch OLED TV model (QN65S90F) received an excellent score of 91 points in performance tests. The TV is highly praised for its clear picture, wide viewing angles, smooth motion, and good sound quality.

Consumer Reports described it as a well-balanced TV that performs well in almost every area. This achievement shows that Samsung continues to focus on quality and innovation.

Samsung is working on something exciting that could make life easier for smartphone users. Sharing files between different brands has always been a bit tricky, mainly between Samsung and Apple devices. But now, that might finally change in a big way on older devices too.

The new update brings support for AirDrop into Samsung’s Quick Share system. This means Samsung users may soon be able to send photos, videos, and files directly to iPhones, iPads, and even Macs without needing extra apps.

At first, this feature was only available on the latest Samsung Galaxy S26 lineup. But now, Samsung is expanding it to more devices. Instead of a full system update, the feature is being added through updates to Quick Share and its related tools.

These Galaxy devices received a new Quick Share update:

• Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22 Plus, Galaxy S22 Ultra
• Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23 Plus, Galaxy S23 Ultra
• Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24 Plus, Galaxy S24 Ultra
• Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25 Plus, Galaxy S25 Ultra
• Galaxy Z Fold 7

But here’s the catch. Even though the feature is showing up on many devices, it’s not working properly yet. Some users can see the “Share with Apple devices” option, but it doesn’t actually connect to nearby Apple devices. Others don’t see the option at all.

This means Samsung is likely still testing the feature or gradually turning it on through its servers. Updates to apps like Google Play Services may help, but the experience is still not reliable. Stay tuned for more information.

The post Samsung expands AirDrop-like sharing to more Galaxy phones – But there’s an issue appeared first on Sammy Fans.

Samsung has released a new update for Quick Share, which makes sharing files easier and better for Galaxy users. The update enables AirDrop-like sharing on Galaxy devices. 

The fresh update brings a new option called “Your Devices.” It is added in the Who can share with you setting. With this option, you can choose to receive files only from your own devices. This helps keep your phone safe and gives you more control over who can send you files.

Samsung has also changed how things look in the Share Panel. Now, nearby devices are shown from left to right. This small change makes it easier to quickly find and select the device you want to share with.

In addition to this, the update adds the ability to share app content. Before, Quick Share was mainly used for sending photos, videos, or files. Now, you can also share things like reminders, camera presets, photo filters, and stickers. This makes sharing more fun and helpful in everyday use.

It also brings an AirDrop-like sharing experience to older Galaxy devices running One UI 8.5 Beta. This means even if you have an older phone, you can still enjoy fast and smooth sharing like newer devices. However, some One UI 8.0 users are also reporting receiving this feature.

You can easily get this update via Samsung Galaxy Store >> Menu option >> Updates. Install the update to enjoy latest features.
