Samsung dropped one of the Galaxy S5’s best features — its water-resistance — from the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge, but it isn’t giving up on water-resistant devices completely.

If this is something that’s important to you, look out for the South Korean company’s upcoming Galaxy S6 Active, which has been photographed for the first time ahead of its official debut.

Landscape, travel, and humanitarian photographer Colby Brown, who recently explained what makes the rear-facing shooter on the new LG G4 so special, is back to show us how to take great smartphone photos.

In the four-minute video below, Brown offers five tips that will help you shoot better images, like using manual modes to adjust ISO, shutter speed, and white balance.

Struggling to live without root access on your Galaxy S6 and S6 edge? Well, now you don’t have to.

A new “PingPongRoot” exploit exploit for Samsung’s latest flagships makes rooting super simple — anyone can do it in just a few minutes. What’s more, it won’t trip your Knox counter, so you’ll still be able to take advantage of Samsung’s security features and you won’t invalidate your warranty.

Here’s what you need to do.
