Samsung Galaxy S9 concept: SND 845, 95% screen

The release of the duo devices, Galaxy S8 and S8+, has left a very good impression on people. The new phones were highly rated and praised. It makes people want to speculate on what Samsung will do next with the new devices. It is still too soon, so for now it is just self-designed concepts floating around now. One of them asks the question of what the S8 could have done better, and made a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 concept, and it looks amazing!

This concept is designed by Techconfiguration, a frequent designer of cool phone concepts. He has done quite a few designs before. From the outset, the screen is definitely one of Galaxy S9 specs’ highlights. For this concept, it sports a 5.8″ 4K AMOLED display with aspect ratio 18:5:9, and screen-to-body ratio is 95%. That number is impressive, as it is even greater than Xiaomi Mi Mix. The fingerprint scanner is now also moved to below the screen.

Inside, the Galaxy S9 is powered by the would-be newest Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset. That will be accompanied by 6 to 8GB of RAM. With that set-up, the phone would definitely be a beast in terms of performance. In terms of camera, with more flagships adapting the dual camera set-up, this Samsung Galaxy S9 concept seems to finally follow that trend, having a dual camera at the back, with two 12MP sensors. At the front would be an 8MP camera. Overall, it has made some changes to the designs of S8, and elevate it further. This Galaxy S9 is truly beautiful and powerful.

Samsung Galaxy S9 concept: A beauty and a beast!

This Samsung Galaxy S9 concept is truly remarkable. Hopefully, when Samsung announces their plans for the new S9, the phone would come close to this wonderful concept!

With the launch of Galaxy S8 and S8+, Samsung is surely enjoying a good time with a lot of high ratings for the new devices. Today, we will show you a tip for moving apps to microSD card on Samsung flagships, so your experience is even better!

Moving apps to a microSD card is easy on S7!

Since the introduction of Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, Samsung has implemented the expandable storage again. It still remains with the newly launched Galaxy S8 and S8+. For the new devices, there are 64GB of internal storage, and some of it is occupied by the OS and some default applications. With expandable options of up to 256GB, there are than enough storage if you want to keep space for music, photos, and videos.

However, there is also another advantage to having some additional storage on Samsung flagships: moving apps or games to the added storage space, especially larger-sized ones. The steps are simple too. First, make sure you have a microSD card in your phone. Then, go to Settings > Applications, and choose “All apps” from the dropdown menu. Then, select an app you want to move, the choose “Storage”. If the chosen app can be moved, there will be a “Change” option. Choose Change > SD Card, and just follow the instructions. Voila, you have successfully moved the app to your microSD card! Once the moving is completed, the app should run normally. Remember, not any app can be moved, and you can identify that by seeing if there is a “Change” option in the “Storage” tab of an app. Once transferred, if you remove your SD card, the app’s icon will be shown as another icon indicating that it has been stored on the SD card, and you will be unable to access the app unless you put the card back in. If you want moving apps the opposite way, just follow the same instructions above, but choose “Internal storage” instead of “SD Card”.

Moving apps to microSD card: A real convenience!

Hopefully that small tips will help you with your experience of Samsung flagships. You now can make full use of the SD card. Have you bought any of the newest Samsung flagship yet?
