Samsung One UI 6.0 beta based on Android 14 is scheduled to launch on August 2

According to Samsung Germany's customer support, the Korean company will release the One UI 6.0 beta based on Android 14 on August 2 for the Galaxy S23 family.

It's nice to see that Samsung isn't forgetting about its best-selling mid-rangers when it comes to these beta releases, and isn't focusing only on high-end models.

Samsung completely redesigned the hinge on its 2023 foldables and the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5 are all the better for it. The flip even got a much larger, much more usable cover display (and apparently, it can run any app, but there is a catch). Samsung also introduced a new generation of its Tab S slates, which upgrade to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chipset (as did the Z foldables). Also, they now have IP68 dust and water resistance, you can take them to the pool without worries. And there are new smartwatches too – the rotating bezel is back! There is no Pro model this...

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 camera samples: A walk around Seoul

The new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5 is out the doors, and it's almost time to assess the phone's capabilities. But until a review unit gets to our office, we decided to share some camera samples we captured around Seoul, including 2160p@30fps footage.
