- 1:12We're not bought for, we're not paid for, and
- 1:15I want to really thank you for your time and
- 1:18support on the eSIM Studios channels on all of
- 1:21our platforms. let's jump in to the news so i
- 1:25got a handful of stuff here that uh pretty good
- 1:30pretty juicy stuff so never mind cut myself shaving
- 1:34last night so you know big old bandage it was
- 1:37a gusher anyways let's move on so i'm gonna share
- 1:42my screen here and It brings up some really interesting
- 1:48stuff. Now, I guess first and foremost, let's
- 1:51get this out of the way as well as far as news
- 1:53-wise. If you purchased a Google Book, there's
- 1:57been a lot of disgust about those. And if you
- 2:00have a Samsung phone, update both devices as
- 2:04soon as possible. There's been a lot of talk
- 2:06and discussion, a lot of people returning their
- 2:09Google Books because people realized, is it special?
- 2:13Is it a unique device? look i haven't purchased
- 2:17one yet but it looks basically like a tablet
- 2:22with an attached keyboard or like they're really
- 2:24not anything anyways if you have a samsung device
- 2:30it is now compatible with your google book however
- 2:34it won't just magically work you're gonna have
- 2:38to update these things right so if you have a
- 2:42google book please go to the settings update
- 2:44the software update google services update your
- 2:47applications on the google book if you have a
- 2:50samsung device do the same thing so it's crucial
- 2:53to have android 17 in fact it's it won't work
- 2:58without a device a paired device without android
- 3:0117. most samsung devices are now receiving the
- 3:05android 17 update 1ui9 but that's not the only
- 3:08part after you update the android 17 1ui9 on
- 3:12your samsung device you're going to need to update
- 3:15google play services and the applications so
- 3:20we can fully connect fully pair with the google
- 3:24book so you will be allowed to do a number of
- 3:27things like the continue on feature cast my apps
- 3:31feature the quick access and notification sync
- 3:35feature as well these features help users connect
- 3:39their phones and laptops and make it easier to
- 3:42use both devices together and there's been a
- 3:46number of users with headaches with these google
- 3:49books but we all knew this was going to get ironed
- 3:54out over time it does look like they rushed the
- 3:58release of this google book a little early uh
- 4:02but you know with some time all this stuff gets
- 4:05ironed out so if you still got one if you still
- 4:08have not returned yours you do have a samsung
- 4:11device update the software update google play
- 4:15services and update your applications and hopefully
- 4:18you'll have a better connected experience right
- 4:21because that's the whole reason why they brought
- 4:23them to the table was a new ecosystem so to speak
- 4:27so um the updates are there and cross device
- 4:32services was updated as well which is crucial
- 4:34for pairing uh your phone and your google book
- 4:39now that we got that out of the way let's jump
- 4:42into the s27 ultra so now as look as time goes
- 4:48on we're getting more and more leaks more and
- 4:50more information slowly rolling out in regards
- 4:52to this s27 ultra the lee the release is just
- 4:55right around the corner and i'm getting very
- 4:58excited i was not a big fan of this design when
- 5:02i first saw it but now that i see it more and
- 5:05more i've accepted it more and more uh quick
- 5:09question what design do you think looks better
- 5:13the new motorola signature 27 or the new samsung
- 5:18galaxy s27 ultra which one do you like better
- 5:21i'm gonna vote for the s27 ultra that's just
- 5:24me but now we get word on the bezel thickness
- 5:30so each year the thickness of the bezel the little
- 5:36black strip that goes around your display so
- 5:40if you have your phone opened up right here on
- 5:42the home screen it's that little black strip
- 5:46that goes that borders your display each and
- 5:49every year it gets smaller and smaller and smaller
- 5:52it's not going to be as small sorry to ruin the
- 5:56news for some people oppo typically has the thinnest
- 6:00bezels and they've continually been the leader
- 6:04in the thinnest bezel segment if there was one
- 6:08maybe i just invented one oppo and or oneplus
- 6:12has traditionally had very very thin bezels in
- 6:15fact their new opa find x10 series i believe
- 6:18is under one millimeter thickness of bezel now
- 6:22samsung's not going to get down to the one millimeter
- 6:26bezel thickness however it's pretty close so
- 6:30the s27 ultra is going to feature 1 .28 millimeter
- 6:35bezels now that's down from 1 .32 millimeter
- 6:40bezels on the s26 ultra now another piece of
- 6:46information that leaked out this a little speaking
- 6:49of design that camera island on the back of the
- 6:52s27 ultra that you see right there that encompasses
- 6:54the camera sensors that's going to be actually
- 6:57a little thicker so it's going to sit up a little
- 6:59taller that's going to be just the the the how
- 7:01tall that island sits up off the back panel of
- 7:04the s27 ultra that is measured to be 4 .69 millimeters
- 7:10tall sitting up from the back of the s27 ultra
- 7:15now this article says samsung could replace the
- 7:19vertical rear camera alignment well duh we've
- 7:23been seeing leaks i i think that's essentially
- 7:26set in stone at this point and we do know what
- 7:30the uh camera sensor is going to be but look
- 7:33here speaking of the rear vertical camera arrangement
- 7:38what do you know We also have a photo of official
- 7:46cases for the S27 series lineup. Now, the two
- 7:50cases you see on the left, that's going to be
- 7:53for the S27, the base model, and the S27 Plus
- 7:57on the second from the left. It's going to look
- 7:59essentially the exact same as the current S26
- 8:04base model and S26 Plus. Move over to the right,
- 8:08you get the S27 Pro. and the s27 ultra all the
- 8:13way on the right you get to see the size difference
- 8:17i know there's a lot of people excited for the
- 8:19smaller pro variant that they're going to introduce
- 8:22to the public i'm actually really excited for
- 8:26people that like not so big phones not necessarily
- 8:30people that like small phones but this i think
- 8:33is i think samsung did a lot of studying a lot
- 8:38of surveying their consumer base or just phone
- 8:41users in general on in regards to small phones
- 8:45so this is going to be right around a 6 .4 inch
- 8:49display and obviously the ultra on the right
- 8:53there it's a big phone it's a 6 .9 inch display
- 8:57big beautiful display but not everybody wants
- 9:01a ginormous phone right Some women like smaller
- 9:06phones. Some guys like smaller phones. I actually
- 9:09like a smaller phone if I'm using it as my second
- 9:13phone. No need to carry around two bricks in
- 9:16your pocket, right? You could have one big phone
- 9:19like the S27 Ultra and then, or let's say, well,
- 9:23if you're carrying two, there's no point in carrying
- 9:24an S27 Pro and an S27 Ultra. Well, let's say
- 9:28you have an iPhone 18 Pro Max, but you want to
- 9:31carry around a second phone, maybe an Android
- 9:33device. um samsung will have that for you the
- 9:37s27 pro is going to be a 6 .4 inch display my
- 9:41personal opinion i think the 6 .7 inch display
- 9:45is the for me for me anyways is the absolute
- 9:48perfect size it's not too big it's not too small
- 9:526 .4 is right for a small size i know it will
- 9:56be bigger than the base s whatever models just
- 10:01for example the s20 s26 just the base model i
- 10:07think is a 6 .2 inch display the s26 pro is going
- 10:12to be a 6 .4 so if you've had a base model samsung
- 10:16galaxy uh like me i've uh for a long time on
- 10:20this youtube channel i had an s22 just the base
- 10:22s22 nothing special no pro excuse me no plus
- 10:26no ultra that i recorded a lot with and that
- 10:30was pretty small i think that was a 6 .1 inch
- 10:32so This one's still going to be decent size.
- 10:36It's just not going to be huge. So I think that
- 10:396 .4 is probably the biggest you can go without
- 10:43being considered like a medium -sized phone or
- 10:46a bigger -sized phone. 6 .4 is probably the biggest
- 10:50they could go and still be considered a small
- 10:53phone. So here is the design confirmations, I
- 10:58guess you could say, in regards to the S. 27
- 11:02series i don't know how many s27 and s27 pluses
- 11:07samsung is gonna sell i think you're gonna see
- 11:10a large majority of their sales are gonna be
- 11:14with the pro and the ultra i for as i mentioned
- 11:18i for one i'm happy they're introducing a smaller
- 11:20pro model device it's been a long time coming
- 11:24because even their base model we've been talking
- 11:26a lot about here in the last couple minutes it
- 11:29technically is a flagship phone but it's always
- 11:33had the flagship chip it's always had a decent
- 11:35display not 2k or 1 .5 i think it's like 1080p
- 11:38plus but it's always been missing the pro cameras
- 11:42the best cameras and i think this will satisfy
- 11:45this is gonna the people that like small phones
- 11:48they're gonna love this s27 pro in fact i think
- 11:51i'm gonna try and get one i'm getting the s27
- 11:54ultra for sure right signed sealed and delivered
- 11:57i'm getting one but i think i'm gonna buy a pro
- 12:00one just to try it out like this is a big deal
- 12:04you you might not think so or you might haven't
- 12:07given it a lot of deep thought this is a big
- 12:10deal and this is going to compete directly against
- 12:12apple's um model theory where they have a pro
- 12:19a small one in a pro max the big one well samsung
- 12:22now has that same kind of modeling figure to
- 12:26present to potential customers right so um i
- 12:31for one am excited about that now let's look
- 12:34into the future let's look into the future of
- 12:39samsung devices and let's look past the s27 what
- 12:45about the s28 series whoa hold s28 series you
- 12:51want to talk about the s28 series and we haven't
- 12:53even we don't even have the s27 series here yet
- 12:57yeah let's talk about the s28 series because
- 13:01you're going to see major major changes now this
- 13:05is a rumor a leak but i think it has some weight
- 13:11some cachet behind it i can certainly see this
- 13:15coming to fruition and what i'm talking about
- 13:19is the operating system so on the s28 series
- 13:24in 2028 one ui will be 10 years old now the tech
- 13:32industry five years seems like a lifetime 10
- 13:35years seems like an eternity and for a company
- 13:41to sit on something for 10 years now this is
- 13:44a a software model not necessarily a hardware
- 13:48design although apple has been sitting on their
- 13:51stupid iphone design for essentially 10 years
- 13:54they'll tell you it's changed guess what it hasn't
- 13:57open one up it looks exactly the same inside
- 14:00one ui is going to change and not only is it
- 14:07going to change visually they're going to give
- 14:10it a new name So there's a new leak here by a
- 14:14leaker that's not a real well -known leaker,
- 14:17but he has had some previous leaks come true.
- 14:23So there's word on the street, Samsung Galaxy
- 14:26OS rumors. Samsung Galaxy OS, as you hear my
- 14:30Galaxy S26 ringing off of the hook here. Galaxy
- 14:35OS. that name that term has a ring to it and
- 14:40i don't know why they didn't name one ui well
- 14:43again this is what i guess now eight or nine
- 14:47years ago they named it one ui i think they're
- 14:51gonna switch to galaxy os so i think one ui will
- 14:56be retired next this time next year i really
- 14:59believe that so this new leak claims that One
- 15:06UI has run its course. Now, I love One UI, and
- 15:11I know millions of other users do as well. There's
- 15:14some people that don't like it, and look, that's
- 15:16okay, right? I like stuff that you don't like,
- 15:19and you like stuff that I don't like. But for
- 15:22the most part, I think One UI is a fantastic
- 15:25operating system. It's what probably has me...
- 15:30using my s26 ultra as my daily driver more than
- 15:35other devices now i love oxygen os and the one
- 15:40plus 15 which obviously will be very soon color
- 15:44os 17 and that might take its place but one ui
- 15:48i'm so familiar with it i have a lot of samsung
- 15:51apps that i use cross device right that keeps
- 15:55me on one ui um i like pixel for the simplicity
- 15:59but one ui is feature -packed one ui is highly
- 16:03customizable you can theme it you can change
- 16:05the font you can do all sorts of stuff now why
- 16:09would samsung go and mess that up well i've mentioned
- 16:13it's run its course now you're gonna see some
- 16:17heavy visual changes and some internal changes
- 16:20because galaxy os remember this is not for the
- 16:25s27 series this is for the upcoming s20 8 series
- 16:29so this time next year is when we're going to
- 16:31be talking about this heavily just giving everybody
- 16:35a little head start a little peek into the future
- 16:37to see what we can expect here there's a really
- 16:40good article on sammy fans here in regards to
- 16:43galaxy us so it is thought and leaked and rumored
- 16:49and there is some evidence that this leaker is
- 16:52saying samsung is working hand in hand with google
- 16:58In regards to Galaxy OS, now, you're not going
- 17:02to see a One UI and Pixel OS merge. It's not
- 17:09going to be right. They're not going to do that.
- 17:12But what you're going to see is a new look, a
- 17:16new theme, an operating system. that integrates
- 17:20Gemini heavily into the operating system, AI
- 17:23heavily into the operating system. Look, do I
- 17:26think this new Galaxy OS is going to be a complete
- 17:30180 where you get this S28 Ultra and it has new
- 17:35Galaxy OS on it? Trust me, every year they want
- 17:38something to promote, something to advertise.
- 17:40This just gives Samsung something else to heavily
- 17:43promote and advertise. i don't think galaxy os
- 17:47is going to look completely different from one
- 17:49ui i just think it's going to look maybe refreshed
- 17:53i think it'll look similar to one ui it's just
- 17:56going to have features and themes and ai accessibility
- 18:02features more tightly wove woven into the operating
- 18:07system integrated into the operating system just
- 18:10like their AI generated photo editing in the
- 18:14gallery app, the writing tools, the live translations,
- 18:17the now bar, all that stuff is going to be in
- 18:21the operating system. And I think this is when
- 18:25Samsung is going to finally integrate good lock
- 18:29into the operating system. So I think this is
- 18:33when they're cause I mean, it doesn't suck. It's
- 18:37just an extra step or two. um that's kind of
- 18:40annoying is having to go to the gallery to the
- 18:42galaxy app store download good lock and kind
- 18:46of you moderate it through the galaxy app store
- 18:50why don't you just implement good lock why don't
- 18:52you make a good lock a folder in the settings
- 18:55right make it as good lock settings option and
- 18:58then you can heavily theme your device from the
- 19:01settings app like I think they're finally going
- 19:03to do that. I think they're finally going to
- 19:05integrate more AI, more Gemini stuff into this
- 19:09operating system. So I don't think it'll be a,
- 19:13they're going to say it's going to be a complete
- 19:14overhaul, but look, One UI is pretty heavy at
- 19:19this point. The operating system, if you ever
- 19:21download the operating system, it's pretty heavy,
- 19:24right? It's like, I don't know, six, eight, nine
- 19:26gigabytes of information rolled up into one operating
- 19:29system. I would like to see them shed a few gigs
- 19:33if possible in this operating system. Because
- 19:38I've had in the past, like I just updated this
- 19:42S26 Ultra to the latest One UI 9. And I'm having
- 19:48a few bugs. It's pretty annoying. This phone
- 19:51was damn... i'm not gonna say perfect no phone
- 19:54is but i thought it was a really solid choice
- 19:56it was a strong workhorse when this was just
- 19:59released since i've updated this to a one ui
- 20:019 .0 and and i've had one or two updates since
- 20:04then i'm having issues my wi -fi drops i continually
- 20:09have to keep keep on connecting it to wi -fi
- 20:12manually i get stutters it lags uh it locked
- 20:16up on me a couple times where nothing i did on
- 20:19the screen would work and i had to force reboot
- 20:21about holding the power button down for 20 seconds
- 20:23stuff like that it's a heavy operating system
- 20:26so but overall i mean look i could factor reset
- 20:30it and it would be fine it's just pain in the
- 20:32ass you know setting up a new phone anyways galaxy
- 20:38os will take the name of many other android manufacturers
- 20:43and they're naming theme for their operating
- 20:47system because a lot of these have their own
- 20:49os so you have hyper os right you have color
- 20:56os you had oxygen os you have origin os you have
- 21:02magic os and now you're gonna have galaxy os
- 21:06it's more of a naming scheme kind of thing but
- 21:12uh i'm looking forward to it look uh samsung
- 21:15does a fantastic job in the operating system
- 21:17and that is what keeps millions of users coming
- 21:19back to samsung devices so just be on the lookout
- 21:23i wanted to make everybody aware but samsung
- 21:27kind of been cooking up a little bit uh it's
- 21:29been a while since i've had a one video dedicated
- 21:31to everything samsung so this is it now it's
- 21:36going to be launched i guess galaxy os would
- 21:39technically be one ui 10 right that's what it
- 21:44would have been now this it'll just be galaxy
- 21:47os i don't know if they're gonna put a one on
- 21:50it or 1 .0 or two you know something like that
- 21:53they're gonna launch the s27 series here in a
- 21:57few months with one ui 9 .5 so s27 series is
- 22:02going to launch with one ui 9 .5 and then the
- 22:06following year one ui 10 is going to change to
- 22:10galaxy os and again i don't know if it's going
- 22:12to be 1 .0 or or what but they will heavily promote
- 22:16it and advertise it i can guarantee you that
- 22:20so i'll get you out of there on that i do appreciate
- 22:22your time remember Please support independent
- 22:25media. It means a lot to myself and other content
- 22:28creators that don't really do a whole lot of
- 22:31sponsorships and stuff like that and collaborations.
- 22:35So I can speak on. i can speak for myself and
- 22:40for other independent creators in the tech sector
- 22:43and even outside the tech sector i just want
- 22:45to say thank you for viewing our channels thank
