Samsung 'Orbis' Tizen Smartwatch to Feature Wireless Charging: Report

 

 

 

After its brief appearance a couple of weeks ago, Samsung's rumoured round dial smartwatch, said to be codenamed Orbis, has once again come under the spotlight but this time along with some information on one of its key features

.

To recall, Samsung Orbis is the South Korean firm's yet-to-be-announced smartwatch which is said to feature a round dial and run on Tizen OS. The leak that came couple of weeks ago was based on Samsung's patents that were filed back in 2013. The patents showed the South Korean firm working on a rotating ring technology on its smartwatch.

 

The latest report from Sammobile suggests the Samsung Orbis smartwatch will come equipped with wireless charging feature, which has been missing from all the company's previously launched wearables. The details on wireless charging implementation are yet to be known. However, its mechanism is speculated to be similar to what Motorola uses for the Moto 360. There is no information on other features of the watch as of now.

      Is it possible to do step-forward and step-rewind with TV's remote control on a video in Tizen browser?
      For example, when I open any video from www.Twitter.com on iPhone (in full screen), nice controls for step-forward / step-rewind show up (screenshot attached).
      But I couldn't find similar feature when opening video from www.twitter.com on Tizen browser in SamsungTV.
      Can it be achieved? Maybe there's a workaround? Maybe I should install a different browser on Tizen?

      Samsung’s Galaxy S23 series started shipping last week and appears to be a winner already. The phones are as fast as possible for 2023 Android flagships. The Galaxy S23 Ultra’s camera and battery life are impressive. More importantly, the Galaxy S23 phones aren’t more expensive than their predecessors, despite offering much better performance. Still, the phones are quite expensive. Samsung fans on a budget might want to wait for the price to drop — or for the cheaper Galaxy S23 FE to arrive.
      What’s great about Galaxy S23 performance so far is that we’re not seeing any of the issues that hurt the Galaxy S22 series last year. There’s no Exynos version of the handset, and Samsung isn’t throttling the phone. Nor is it cheating in benchmarks.
      If anything, the Galaxy S23 phones feature an even faster variant of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip that will power most 2023 Android flagships. And the same chip is available in all regions.
      Had Samsung followed Apple’s strategy, it could have easily turned the Galaxy S22 into a great budget alternative to the Galaxy S23. And Samsung did say during the Galaxy S23 event that it’ll continue selling the Galaxy S22. But those phones still rock the Snapdragon/Exynos combos of chips.
      Galaxy S23 price structure announced at Unpacked 2023. Image source: Samsung That’s to say the Galaxy S22 might have been a decent Galaxy S23 FE alternative. Samsung wouldn’t have needed to bring the Fan Edition back. As a reminder, there was no S22 FE variant last year.
      A Korean leaker (via SamMobile) claims that Samsung is making a Galaxy S23 FE this year. The phone should be more affordable than the $799 Galaxy S23, though the price hasn’t leaked. But the leaker says the phone will use the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 processor so Samsung can cut costs.
      As a reminder, the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 is a better variant of the regular Snapdragon chip that powers the Galaxy S22 phones. It’s the chip that Samsung used last year in all its Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 foldables. It’s faster and less likely to overheat.
      Put differently, the Galaxy S23 FE won’t match the Galaxy S23’s performance, but it’ll still be a great smartphone that’s on par with last year’s flagships. Presumably. We still need to figure out what sort of specs the handset will offer and how much Samsung will charge for it.

      Hi, i recently bought Samsung 65q80b. I had a great smart remote with full keyboard, air mouse and IR learning functions. But neither multimedia buttons nor OK button works on new tv. I think these 3rd party remotes execute "left click" when you press OK. And Tizen doesn't record mouse clicks? Any hope about possible fw update in near future or any suggestion? Thanks.
