  1. Went to #ZRH (Zurich Airport) during the #solareclipse and watched the whole thing from the 11th floor of the P6 parking garage.

    I had already scouted the location last Sunday. It turned out to be a really good spot for watching the #eclipse.

    I went to the #airport to pick up someone whose flight arrived just 20 minutes into the eclipse.

    Here are some photos taken with my #Samsung #Galaxy #S26 Ultra and a solar eclipse filter.

    Ich war während der #Sonnenfinsternis am #ZRH, dem Flughafen Zürich, und habe das ganze Ereignis vom 11. Stock des Parkhauses P6 aus beobachtet.

    Den Standort hatte ich bereits letzten Sonntag ausgekundschaftet. Er hat sich als wirklich guter Platz erwiesen, um die #Finsternis zu beobachten.

    Ich war am #Flughafen, um jemanden abzuholen, dessen Flug nur 20 Minuten nach Beginn der Sonnenfinsternis gelandet ist.

    Hier sind einige Fotos, aufgenommen mit meinem #Samsung #Galaxy #S26 Ultra und einem Sonnenfinsternisfilter.

  3. Samsung reportedly starts development for One UI 9.5 for the Galaxy S26

    While One UI 9.0 was still ongoing for the Galaxy S26 with the beta program currently going on with the fifth beta version being expected this week, something unexpected has unfolded.

    According to a reliable tipster, Tarun Vats, Samsung has reportedly started development on One UI 9.5, a version that will be released for the upcoming Galaxy S27 series, for the Galaxy S26 series, with the build number ending with CZH1.

    The Galaxy S26 was originally released with One UI 8.5 as the version in use. Since then, Samsung has planned to upgrade it to One UI 9.0, which is what they’re already working on with beta programs. One UI 9.5 comes after One UI 9.0, which will provide various features, such as new AI features.

    However, this is a very early development stage, so there is no clear information about One UI 9.5 on the Galaxy S26 yet. However, the Galaxy S27, which will be revealed in Winter 2027, will be unveiled with One UI 9.5.

    As more information unfolds, we will let you know, including the beta program and the stable rollout.

  10. Zugsausfälle 3.0

    Gestern Abend – um das vorauszuschicken – waren wir gegenüber dem Fahrplan so weit zurück, dass die S11 tatsächlich in Turbenthal auch hielt. Dafür fiel sie dann später – für den Rückweg – aus.

    Heute Morgen geht es im ähnlichen Stil weiter: Meine S11 fällt aus. Grund dafür ist eine Änderung im Fahrzeugeinsatz. Was auch immer das heissen mag.

    Dank eines Sonder-Efforts heute Morgen habe ich die S26 um 06:25 nach Winterthur erwischt. Die S26, die um 06:25 gefahren wäre, wenn sie nicht mit einer Verspätung von sechs Minuten gekommen wäre.

    Die S23, den Entlastungszug von Romanshorn nach Zürich, würden wir so nicht erwischen. Was aber heute auch nicht so tragisch ist:

    Auch dieser Zug war ausgefallen …

  15. Samsung starts working on the Galaxy S26 FE firmware

    The fourth device is joining the Galaxy S26 family, which is the Galaxy S26 FE. This phone is a successor to the Galaxy S25 FE that was released last year. The FE phones often have lower specifications than the base flagship phone, and come cheaper and more affordable.

    As spotted by Mohammed Khatri, Samsung has started working on the Galaxy S26 FE firmware, and the model number is now known as SM-S741U for locked US models. Currently, it’s at build S741USQU0AZE5, and the phone is to be released with One UI 9.0 and Android 17 as the operating system.

    The Galaxy S26 FE is rumored to be powered by the Exynos 2500 SoC as the initial Geekbench report stated, with 8 GB of RAM being on the phone. The same report also states that Android 17 is used, suggesting that this phone is going to launch with One UI 9.0 out of the box.

    The global models of the Galaxy S26 FE haven’t been spotted yet, but as time goes on, Samsung will release the Galaxy S26 FE in the second half of this year.

  16. Samsung officially releases the Galaxy S26 series!

    This year’s flagship phone series has finally been released as of March 11th, with the phone series available for purchase, after 2 weeks of pre-orders! Depending on your country and your region, the Galaxy S26 is already waiting for you in the Galaxy stores.

    The flagships have been engineered with the most advanced capabilities as a third-generation Galaxy AI phone, which becomes the agentic phone thanks to new, powerful AI features. Incredible performance, industry-leading camera system, and more powerful Galaxy AI make the Galaxy S26 series the most exciting series to date!

    Galaxy S26 Ultra introduces the first built-in Privacy Display technology! With narrow pixels and wide pixels to control the light to make it only be visible to you or to everyone, you can now confidently use your phone without worrying about your privacy. This keeps the shoulder-surfers from snooping on your phone, especially when it comes to banking, messaging, and more.

    The Galaxy S26 series also features the most powerful camera system, with the wider camera apertures that allow you to capture images in low-light environments with more clarity, even when zoomed in. Super Steady reduces the camera shake to make consistent framing easier to achieve, even when fast-paced activities are involved. Enhanced Nightography Video makes the footages captured in low-light environments clearer and more vibrant!

    Advanced Professional Video codec also makes it to the Galaxy S26 series, marking it as the world’s first Galaxy device to support this codec, with efficient compression and high-quality videos that are lossless, even after many edits. This is optimized for advanced creators. AI Image Signal Processor now extends to the selfie camera, allowing your selfies to look more natural, especially when it comes to skin tones.

    The Galaxy S26 series also introduces a customized mobile processor, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy, which achieves maximum performance with significant gains across the CPU (increased by 19%), the GPU (increased by 24%), and the NPU (increased by 39%).

    The redesigned, improved, bigger vapor chamber also allows your phone to handle intensive tasks without worrying about overheating. The heat spreads more efficiently across a larger surface area, which results in the device staying cool thanks to improved heat dissipation.

    Galaxy AI reduces the steps between intent and action to make your life easier and simpler. Now, you won’t have to worry about every single little detail, such as a forgotten appointment.

    • Now Nudge: This feature helps users stay in the flow without being distracted. Galaxy AI understands the context and automatically suggests the relevant action, resulting in saved time without having to switch apps.
    • Now Brief: Introduced last year with the Galaxy S25 series, Now Brief has become more personalized, with timely reminders for important events, thanks to Galaxy AI and its improvements set in stone with the Galaxy S26.
    • Circle to Search with Google: Improvements made to Circle to Search resulted in multi-object searching becoming possible, so users can now explore multiple parts at once.
    • Bixby: Upgraded Bixby now allows you to have a more conversational agent that searches the web and suggests the most relevant setting for your device, using natural language.

    There’s much more to come, so the Galaxy S26 series comes in three variants: Base, Plus, and Ultra. The base variant is priced at $899, the Plus at $1,099, and the Ultra at $1,299.
