To trace the history of Samsung phones, and their impact on our everyday life, you need to go right back as far as 1988, when Samsung released their very first mobile phone, the SGH-100 in Korea. A chunky device more likely to find its current home on the upper slopes of the Himalayas, it is a far cry from the epic Galaxy S series which continues to push the boundaries in smartphone performance, connectivity and photographic possibilities.
Competing alongside tech giants such as Apple, Huawei, Oppo and LG, Samsung phones continue to lead the pack in the Android phone market. Each series update or new product reveal rarely disappoints, with new and emerging tech seamlessly integrated into each product release.

The hottest New Tech built into the latest Samsung Phones:
Snap your favourite Shots like a Pro!
Samsung has put a lot of time, research and efforts into its camera features, packing a serious punch in your pocket to compete right alongside its DSLR counterparts. The latest releases offer professional-grade sensors and Zoom capabilities, while its ability to capture up to 8k resolution video is a blogger’s dream come true. Of course, not forgetting its ‘smart-selfie’ capability, which now incorporates wide angle lenses to get more of your besties into the frame.
Lightning Speed Internet Connectivity
When 5G arrived in 2019, Samsung was quick off the mark to incorporate it into the S10 series of Samsung phones and above. With 4G more than capable of holding its own in providing users with connected experiences, Samsung 5G devices offer hyperfast internet speeds that make all the difference when streaming the latest movies and live sports and connecting to colleagues over Zoom, 365 or Google Meets Calls.
Frameless, Super-Immersive Experiences
If Samsung can be accused of cutting corners, the end user certainly isn’t complaining in one particular department. Recent Samsung phones have cut out unnecessary notches, off screen buttons and frames to create a full screen, immersive experience that extends right to the edge of mobile possibilities. And it’s not just the high-end models that offer this aesthetic - more and more mid-range models now come with edge-to-edge displays as standard.
