Samsung Galaxy Note

​Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 made headlines in 2016 for all the wrong reasons: namely, the phones were spontaneously combusting. After a worldwide recall and investigation, Samsung has now confirmed that batteries were causing the fires and outlined new, more stringent quality assurance procedures.

From today, Gizmag is known as New Atlas, and we thought the moment warranted a look back at some of the key developments that have impacted our personal lives throughout our 15 year history. Join us as we revisit the 21st century's most innovative tech products in mobile, wearable and gaming.​​

As the rumor mill predicted, Samsung is officially set to announce its next Galaxy Note phablet early next month. Fans of stylus-laden smartphones​ can expect an upgraded version on August 2 in New York City.

If you want an Android phone with a huge screen, then the new Samsung Galaxy Note 5 will sit next to the Nexus 6 as two of your best choices. Let's see how the two phablets measure up.

Samsung's Galaxy Note series has been around for four generations now. Maybe you're hanging onto an older model, and wondering if the Note 4 is worth the upgrade? Or perhaps you just want to see how much the quintessential phablet has evolved through the years? Read on, as Gizmag compares them all.

Earlier this week, we took a look back at the innovation of the original iPad, five years after the fact. But that got us thinking: what's been the biggest mobile innovation in the five years since then? Take Note: it belongs to Samsung.

Samsung put the phablet category on the map with the original Galaxy Note. But with more companies than ever making large-screened smartphones, is the Note still the one to beat? Let's find out, as Gizmag reviews the US (AT&T) version of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4.

The lines between regular-sized smartphones and phablets are getting blurred. The HTC One (M8), which would have been considered a monstrosity just a few years ago, is now par for the course for Android flagships. Let's plop it down next to the Galaxy Note 3, and compare their features and specs

Almost all tablets have screens somewhere in the 7-in to 10-in range. But what happens when you stretch that all the way out to 12.2 inches? You get the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro, a device that's marketed for both work and play. Join Gizmag, as we review the enormous slate.

LG's smartphones aren't as popular as Samsung's, but the company has been making some nice mobile devices that go toe-to-toe with those of its Korean rival. Let's take a look at LG's latest phablet, the G Pro 2, and see how its features and specs compare to those of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.

Samsung is about to unleash a whole mess of high-end tablets on us. With four Galaxy Pro tablets – the Galaxy Note Pro, Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1, and Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 – to choose from, we thought we'd line them up and take a look at their features and specs.

At CES 2014, Samsung unveiled a business-centered version of its Galaxy Tabs, the Galaxy TabPRO, which is available in three sizes. But the new slate the company seemed most amped to promote is the companion Galaxy NotePRO, which comes with a 12.2-inch display.
