Alleged 65W Samsung charger certified in South Korea

Posted: 28 Sep 2020 07:39 AM PDT

According to a certification document in South Korea, Samsung is readying a 65W-rated charger. It could be for the Galaxy S21-series or it could be for an entirely different device, but the model code suggest it might well be former. The guys from GalaxyClub suspect that it's 65W due to its model number. The 45W Samsung charger has a model EP-TA845 while the newly certified charger is known as EP-TA865. This is, of course based on the assumption that Samsung once more uses the last two digits to denote the charger's rating. The screenshot of the certification doesn't reveal anything...

Its other dimensions were saner, 167.6 mm...

Weekly poll: can the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE finally convince you to make the jump?

Posted: 27 Sep 2020 10:27 AM PDT

At long last Europe is getting a Snapdragon-powered Galaxy S20. No, none of the original trio, but the new Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G, which packs the Snapdragon 865 chipset and offers both sub-6 and mmWave 5G connectivity. There's also the Galaxy S20 FE model, which uses the familiar Exynos 990 chipset in an unfamiliar 4G configuration. That one shouldn't be discounted either as it is cheaper than the local versions of the original S20 models - €633/£600, compared to, say, the Galaxy S20+ 4G, which can be found for a little under €800. The Fan Edition phone is noticeably cheaper in the...
