Samsung Unveils Three New Galaxy Tabs
Samsung has unveiled three new tablets in its Galaxy Tab range. The tablets come with 7, 8 and 10 inch displays respectively, meaning they should appeal to probably everyone in the crowd.
There really isn’t too much of a difference amongst the three tablets. The Galaxy Tab 4 7.0, 8.0 and 10.1 all carry the same resolution in their displays, which rather surprisingly is just 1280 x 800 pixels, which on the Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 must feel a bit too stretched out.

Samsung Announces Galaxy S5
Oh boy. If you had asked us a few hours back whether Samsung, the world’s largest phone-maker, was going to announce its next flagship today, we would’ve said “Heck no”. But believe it or not, its here and alive: the new Galaxy S5.
Quite remarkably for a Samsung flagship, the phone comes without a lot of hype. Samsung didn’t do much to build it up either as they probably knew that there aren’t really a lot of earth-shattering features in here.
