Here's what "S" means in the names of Samsung Galaxy S phones

Here's what "S" means in the names of Samsung Galaxy S phones

Samsung has a lot of lines on its phones, but the most famous is certainly the Galaxy "S" line. Why the letter "S"? What does that mean?

Of course, the letter "S" was not accidentally assigned to this phone line, all its "whys" have their "whys".

Namely, back in 2011, Samsung announced its scheme for naming future phones. I sorted the list by the "strength" of the devices in that category.

  • "S" (Super Smart): this label was reserved for flagship devices, the best of the best.
  • "R" (Royal / Refined): devices that had premium performance and productivity options.
  • "W" (Wonder): high-quality devices combined with style. For those who want to express their style and have a high-performance device.
  • "M" (Magical): mid-range devices - good performance for an affordable price.
  • "Y" (Young): strategic phones that aimed to attract as many users as possible to the Samsung world with affordable prices.
Here's what "S" means in the names of Samsung Galaxy S phones

So, "S" means "Super Smart". It may sound "worn out" today, but it was not there at the time. At that time, smartphones were gaining momentum, and these two words were only found in top products. Something like today's "AI" - now it sounds great to us, and in ten years it won't.

Today, we usually see the "S" and "Y" series of phones, and you may be wondering where the "Note" series is here?

The Note is actually a series that goes back to back with the "S" series. More precisely, each "S" model had its "Note" equivalent. Still, rumors say the S21 Ultra will have its own SPen so - maybe the Note series is shutting down.

By the way, when Samsung announced this phone naming scheme, it explained some other terms that were in the names.

  • "Pro" - they had phones that came with a QWERTY keyboard for faster e-mail typing and increased productivity.
  • "Plus" - means that the phone is an upgrade to an existing model.
  • "LTE" - means that the phone has support for LTE (Long-Term Evolution), which is a 4G standard that has increased the speed and capacity of the mobile network.

Even today, this device naming scheme has been maintained, but some meanings have changed a bit because technology has advanced in the meantime.

Well,  GLONASS is a global navigation system that was started by the USSR in 1976, so this project could be taken over by Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

X96 Mini Android TV Box Review

By Administrator
I have already written an article about buying an Android TV Box for up to 30 euros, and now I am writing about one such device - the X96 Mini TV Box . There is not much to say about this device, its price is around 25 euros, it is an Android TV Box like any other, which means that it is powered by an Android system. Since I wrote about it in the previous article, I will not repeat myself. These cheaper TV Box devices differ mainly only in the chip, amount of RAM, and ROM memory. In the previous article, I wrote about what to pay attention to when choosing, and I chose this device that way.
