We have been expecting to see a mostly unchanged design when it comes to the Galaxy S9. The latest renders of the device appear to confirm these expectations. OnLeaks in partnership with 91mobiles has released their CAD based renders. We aren't seeing the smaller bottom bezel on the Galaxy S9...

There was lots of backlash when Samsung decided to move the fingerprint scanner from the front of the phone to the back of the phone with the Galaxy S8. Having a fingerprint scanner on the back of the phone wasn't the main issue. The issue was with the fact that the scanner was placed to the...

The feature that we all hoped to see in the latest batch of flagships may be ready for the next batch of flagships! We were all hoping to see an embedded fingerprint scanner on the Galaxy S8, but instead we got an oddly placed rear fingerprint scanner. LG announced today that they have completed...
