Galaxy Tab S2 renders show likely new design

See full gallery on TechnoBuffalo

Earlier this week we got a first look at the Galaxy Tab S2 thanks to Twitter tipster @OnLeaks (AKA Steve Hemmerstoffer). Now the French tech blogger is back with two new images of the device and a handful of fresh details.

Before we go any further, we’ll note that these are just renders created by an independent team based on leaked information. Hemmerstoffer, who has a solid track record leaking new gadgets, says the info is trustworthy. Still, we’d treat these rumors with a grain of salt until actual photos of the device start to surface.

Moving on, the Galaxy Tab S2 appears to sport a microSD slot for adding extra storage alongside its SIM slot. It also features a new design that takes some inspiration from the Galaxy S6. Specifically around the edges, which look more machined than they did on the original Galaxy Tab S. As for specs, the upcoming high-end tablet is expected to pack an octa-core Exynos processor, 3GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel front-facing camera, 32GB of built-in storage and run Android 5.0.2 Lollipop out of the box.

Based on earlier leaks, we’re expecting the Galaxy Tab S2 to come in 9.7-inch and 8-inch variants. The device should also be significantly slimmer than last year’s model, coming in at between 5.5 and 5.9mm thick.

With tablet sales dropping across the board Samsung may have trouble convincing anyone to pick up a pricey new Android slate. Still, we’re excited to see how the company can improve on what was already a very impressive first-generation product.

Mad Max meets Mario Kart is just bloody brilliant

How is this for a clever mash-up?  sundbergkr ‘s Mario Kart: Fury Road parody trailer mashes up the worlds of Mad Max and Mario Kart to epic results in this wonderful parody of the film’s trailer. What’s really special about this mash-up is that it isn’t entirely overdone. The Mario references are brief, subtle, and appear just long enough for you to appreciate them before waiting eagerly for the next one. Without a doubt the giant Chomp is the most laugh out loud moment, but the creators also slip in some perfectly timed and inappropriate voice clips during the violent action. I still haven’t seen Mad Max: Fury Road , due it not coming out in Japan until June 20, but I had purposely avoided the trailers to not get any spoilers. Now, thanks to Mario, June 20 can’t come fast enough! Source : Via : Destructoid from TechnoBuffalo http://ift.tt/1AvRv58

Exec behind “Next Big Thing” campaign has departed Samsung

Samsung Mobile CMO, Todd Pendleton, has reportedly departed the company, according to CNET . Pendleton is credited with creating Samsung’s famous “Next Big Thing” campaign, which took aim at the company’s rivals while highlighting the benefits of its own mobile lineup. The ads were smart, terse, and ultimately helped raise the awareness of Samsung’s brand as a major smartphone maker here in the U.S. It’s unclear why Pendleton left, but it’s being reported that Samsung executives became dissatisfied with the campaign’s recent success, even going so far as auditing the mobile division’s Dallas headquarters. It seems you can only use the Next Big Thing tagline so many times; the commercials have taken a decidedly different turn over the past few months, focusing on design, functionality and features rather than bashing Samsung competitors. The timing, I suppose, seems appropriate given that Samsung has just unveiled two new flagships, the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge. Samsung is clearly ...

Star Wars: Battlefront will not have classes

See full gallery on TechnoBuffalo When it comes time to pick your gear and weaponry in DICE’s upcoming relaunch of  Star Wars: Battlefront , you won’t be sifting through classes or class-specific stuff. That’s because the new  Battlefront has no class. I don’t mean that in a belch during dinner at a fancy restaurant kind of way, either. I mean you won’t be picking stuff like Engineer, Assault or Support before you roll onto the battlefield. In an interview with OXM , as summed up by the magazine’s sister site  Games Radar , Design Director Niklas Fegraeus indicated that classes are out. You’ll be able to pick and choose between unlocked weapons and gear freely and build to your own style. Furthermore, Fegraeus also indicated that  Battlefront will not feature the five-person squad feature that  Battlefield  offers. Instead, players will run as partners, a group of two system that lets players stick together, appear on one another’s HUDs and spawn besi...
