Foldable smartphones are certainly gaining a lot of attention as the new form factor challenges smartphone design as we know it. While we saw foldable smartphones and displays over the last year or so, they were all made with fragile plastic lenses atop the display panels. These are very easy to scratch and can easily cause damage to an otherwise expensive device. Rumors suggested that Samsung's upcoming Z Flip smartphone will use a new ultra-thin type of glass.

Over a year and a half ago, each of the four major US carriers was in some way involved with an incident that revealed how carriers were selling location data of its subscribers to whoever wanted to pay for them.

It eventually involved Securus, a prison company that used carrier information to track phones without owners' permission.

Samsung has filed a request to trademark "Super ISO" with the UK Intellectual Property Office. According to Ice Universe this will be featured on the upcoming Galaxy S20 phones. "ISO" here refers to the light sensitivity of the camera - if you've ever played with manual mode on a camera, you'll know that darker scenes require higher ISO. The problem with that is that higher ISO equals higher noise, which is probably what this feature is about. The description of the trademark says that this relates to camera hardware and the image processing software.
