Is Samsung still chasing BlackBerry? Photo: Killian Bell/Cult of Android

BlackBerry may be on its last legs and struggling to attract new customers, but that won’t dissuade Samsung from spending big to buy the company. While both companies have dismissed takeover reports over the past week, a new report claims Samsung really is still interested in acquiring a significant stake in the Canadian smartphone maker.

The Galaxy S6 rumors are coming in thick and fast today, but this one could well be the juiciest so far. If a list of all the specifications Samsung has crammed into its next-generation flagship doesn’t get you super excited for its launch, then I don’t know what will.

At this point we’re expecting a lot of great things from the Galaxy S6 — including stellar specifications and an all-new design. But like any other smartphone, it won’t be perfect. According to a new report, Samsung’s next-generation flagship will drop one of the features that made the Galaxy S5 so great: water-resistance.

There won’t be a shortage of smartphone unveilings at Mobile World Congress in early March, but you can cross LG’s new G4 off your wishlist right away. A company executive has confirmed that the device will not be unveiled at the event, but sources familiar with Samsung’s plans say we will get the Galaxy S6 instead.

Samsung’s flagship Galaxy devices come with Qualcomm’s latest and greatest Snapdragon chips every year, but the chip maker’s newest offering not be good enough for the Galaxy S6. Sources familiar with Samsung’s plans say that due to overheating issues with the Snapdragon 810, Samsung will use its own Exynos processors instead for this device.
