Samsung Galaxy Note 9 launch delayed due to last minute design change: Report



A couple of weeks back, we came across reports hinting that Samsung could launch the Galaxy Note 9 flagship smartphone earlier than usual. The unveiling event was expected to take place around July end, but now, a latest report from South Korea states that the launch has been pushed ahead at least by two weeks.
Sources closer to Korean outlet, The Bell, claim that last minute design change is one of the reasons for the delay. Reportedly, Samsung’s vice chairman Lee Jae-yong who was visiting China when he tried out the Vivo and Oppo devices, and found that they are easier to hold. He then ordered his team to reduce the thickness by 0.5mm of the glass that covers the display.
At the time of Galaxy Note 7, Samsung rushed the production and launch, which turned out to be a fatal mistake. It’s good to see Samsung now taking quality control measures, without rushing the release. Even with two-weeks delay, the company still gets some time to capture the sales before the new iPhone models get released in September.
From what we know so far, the Galaxy Note 9 will feature a slightly larger 6.4-inch display compared to the existing 6.3-inch one on the Galaxy Note 8. The smartphone is also expected to come with a dual-rear camera setup along with the dual aperture lens as seen on the Galaxy S9 duo. Powered by Snapdragon 845 or Exynos 9810 based on the region, the Galaxy Note 9 is expected to feature 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB onboard storage.
he Galaxy Note 9 is also expected to borrow intelligent scan facial recognition tech from the Galaxy S9 duo, along with AR Emoji and more. If rumors are to be believed, it will also be the first Samsung smartphone to come with Bixby 2.0.

The Foods You Need to Avoid to Keep Your Skin Clear

It's not necessarily greasy foods that are the culprits. It was an old wives’ tale worthy of medical research. Researchers managed to prove way back in 1969 that your chocolate noshing wasn’t causing you to break out, and that was a relief. In fact, science has since proven that certain foods can get rid of your acne. But that’s not to say that said old wives weren’t on to  something  because what you eat really does make a detrimental difference when it comes to your complexion,  according to Men’s Health. A study  published in the  Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics ventured to figure out exactly what the problematic pimple-causing foods were. The research involved two groups of 32 participants; one group had clear skin, the other had moderate-to-severe acne. Each group was asked to complete a five-day food diary and then get blood work done. Of all the participants, 61 percent believed that their diets were affect...

Ida Lundgren and Bianca Van Damme Could Easily Kick Your Butt!

If there were ever two fathers whose daughters would be genetically programmed to kick butt, those would be Jean Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren – two of the most badass actors-slash-martial-artists of our time. They have both taught their little daughters how to defend themselves and look fantastic while doing it. Let’s look at Dolph and Ida first Just like Dolph’s character in Rocky IV, Ivan Drago, his 21-year-old daughter Ida was asked to show off her amazing skills on the boxing ring as well. And, boy, did she deliver! In this photoshoot for Muscle&Fitness, Dolph is probably showing Ida some secret moves and teaches her about the weak spots and how important the footwork is. Maybe he even told her how to beat Sylvester Stallone. Or maybe I’m imagining thing. These days Ida is an aspiring young model, but she’s got a long way to go to be as popular as her dad. She may look like a frail girl most of the time, but don’t let her cute looks fool you! Ida can and...
