Finding the best Samsung S10 deals can be a difficult process, simply because of the model’s high-end status. Samsung is considered one of the leading tech providers globally, with the South Korean smartphones featuring in every mobile retail store around the UK.

There are actually plenty of Galaxy S10 deals to be found, especially on the latest Samsung Galaxy devices, such as the Galaxy S10 5G and the more affordable Galaxy S10e. The S10 5G was one of the first phones in the UK to harness the potential of 5G, and you can now use the device with spectacular 5G deals from the likes of EE and Vodafone, with O2 and Three following up with 5G coverage later in 2019.

The latest weekend box office numbers are in, and the Fast & Furious spinoff Hobbs & Shaw starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Jason Statham, opened to a massive number.

The action film took in $60.8 million during its US/Canada opening this weekend, which made it far and away the biggest movie of the weekend, according to box office numbers from Entertainment Weekly. Hobbs & Shaw made a further $120 million from its overseas opening to bring its global haul to $180 million after just one weekend. As it happens, $180 million is also the estimated production budget of Hobbs & Shaw.

At $60.8 million in North America, Hobbs & Shaw performed substantially lower than almost every other movie in the series, but that is to be expected given it is a spinoff. You can see the domestic opening-weekend figures for every Fast & Furious movie posted below via Box Office Mojo.

Hobbs & Shaw is directed by Deadpool 2 director David Leitch. The movie also features Idris Elba as the villain, alongside Helen Mirren, Eiza Gonzalez, and Eddie Marsan.

The entire Fast & Furious franchise has now made more than $5 billion in box office receipts worldwide since it premiered all the way back in 2009. Hobbs & Shaw is the ninth instalment.

GameSpot’s review of Hobbs & Shaw called it “wildly fun, but very dumb.”

Elsewhere, Disney’s The Lion King finished No. 2 with $38.2 million to push its domestic haul to $430.9 million. The movie has now made $764.9 million from international markets to push its global haul to $1.195 billion. Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, meanwhile, added $20 million this weekend in the US and Canada to push its total haul to $78.8 million; the movie opens later in August in other parts of the world.

August has many more games on the horizon, and New Releases will dive into another batch next week. If you’re looking for more Nintendo Switch ports, Friday the 13th: The Game is making its way to the handheld console, and Rebel Galaxy Outlaw is launching too.

SNK has announced that King of Fighters XV is in development. The surprise announcement was made at EVO 2019, the fighting game tournament that sees players from across the world compete to be crowned the best in a variety of games.

The announcement was just a logo of the game, along with the confirmation that the sequel was in the works. No further details on when the game would be released or what platforms it will be available for were revealed. A logo is all we’ve got, but for fans of the long-running fighting game franchise, it will no doubt be exciting.

It’s been around three years since the last King of Fighters was released. When King of Fighters XIV arrived in 2016, GameSpot awarded it an 8/10. “With plenty of opportunities available online or off, KOF 14 is a well-executed addition to the revered fighting series,” said Matt Espineli in his KOF 14 review.

“Those disappointed in its new visuals may be unwilling to give it a chance, but if you remain steadfast in parsing through the multiple layers of its mechanics, you’ll be rewarded with one of the most accessible, satisfying entries in the series to date.”
