In contrast, users are facing problems while charging their Galaxy S20 and Note 20 devices through a wireless charger. first, it charges normally but after some time it shifts to regular charging, and the time doubles and sometimes even stops charging. While the other smartphones charge fine with the same charger. According to some users, this problem is caused after they updated to the latest firmware.

These users have tried many solutions such as rebooting the device multiple times, factory reset, and even changing the charger but the problem still exists. If you are also facing these problems on your Galaxy Note 20 and Galaxy S20 devices then let us know in the comments below.

Until now Samsung hasn’t said anything about this problem. This can’t be a hardware issue as the smartphone was charging well before the users updated to the latest firmware. It might be a software bug that the company should solve in the coming update.

Galaxy S25 Ultra dummy reveals Samsung’s bold flagship redesign

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Dummy

Galaxy S25 Ultra dummy leak reveals the nearly final design of Samsung’s next big flagship. After CAD renders, we now have a closer look at the refined new design of the Ultra flagship, which will give sleepless nights to Apple.

Onleaks posted a set of Galaxy S25 Ultra dummy models. The flagship can be seen with its refined design, which makes the corner slightly rounded. The Z Fold6-inspired camera rings also elevate the rear panel’s appearance, making it appealing.

There are three major changes in the body design of Samsung’s next Ultra flagship. The first is the frame, which is getting flatter like the iPhone. Second is rounded corners, that are not that rounded like S24/S25, and third is textured camera rings.

Notably, the dummy units don’t show a close look at the bezels. However, this aspect is expected to be improved over the previous generations. Minimal symmetrical bezels will present an appealing look on the phone’s front side.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra is slimmer than the Galaxy S24 Ultra. The S Pen compartment resists on the frame’s bottom, accompanied by the primary microphone, USB C-Type port, speaker grille, and SIM card tray.

The right side of the frame features volume adjustment buttons and a side key. The power button can be configured to trigger a digital assistant. The fingerprint scanner will be featured as an in-screen solution with faster and more reliable recognition.

Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy S25 series in late January next year.

Samsung dreams new camera with longer battery, less noise

Published

Camera Sensor

A new patent suggests Samsung working on next-gen camera tech that could save battery and crush lens process noise. The company has recently unveiled the All Lenses on Prism telephoto solution for thinner and sleeker zoom cameras.

Since smartphone camera modules get more advanced, a lot of processing power is required to finish the tasks. That said, Samsung is crafting even more advanced camera modules that save battery and reduce noise.

Enter Samsung’s new patent, which introduces a power-saving sub-processor. This clever little chip would handle all the extra camera tasks—like reducing noise from the OIS lens movements and managing the EIS algorithms.

It will reduce the burden of the main processor so it can focus on the actual photo-taking. At the time your device is in a sleep or power-saving state, the sub-processor keeps running quietly in the background, consuming minimal power.

If the technology is used, you will have less noise in camera operations, smoother performance, and better battery life. At the same time, you won’t lose your favorite camera features, but your smartphone will last longer between charges.

A look ahead

The development shows Samsung’s innovative approach. Other than upgrading camera sensors, the company is also working on improvements to the technology that works behind the scenes and makes a great impact on performance and efficiency.

Samsung often registers new patent applications to secure designs and innovations. However, it’s uncertain that a patented technology would surely be commercialized. Tech firms have thousands of approved patents that never get produced.
