-, 26 Apr 2024Didn't Samsung build everything in-house before 2018/2... moreNot at all, unfortunately.
Their earlier phones until 2008 were manufactured by Taiwanese ODMs Arima and Compal.
Then it was handed over to Sprocomm and Longcheer and continued until 2017. After all of that, they had to use Huaqin and Wingtech as their manufacturers, then the designing was done by the above 2 companies since 2018.

Pitchwisse, 25 Apr 2024Headphone jack and SD card - the reasons for not having the... moreI would only say im sure lg V series phones probably can or the lg g5 that was semi modular design and can have a seperate quad dac put in to the phone (can be used with pc too, shame we never went the modular design with phones, also LG, i miss LG).
People also dont understand the type C port literally does the same job as a jack with active and passive pass through, i use my jabra elite 85h with dongle (so wired input), get an audio quality upgrade (notice mid frequencies a lot clearer and low frequencies arent red lining and are much more "full", then again i prefer warmer output.
I literally use my phone to create songs with my guitar, if i needed to i could connect other instruments etc to use as midi devices if i wanted to improve my production, tbf most apps have the ability to create other instruments digitally anyway with no input delay.
People just like to complain about the jack and card slot, ive used both since i was a child growing up and havent needed either for the past 6 years but people love "the old days" when most likely they barely lived through it.

Tech Boy2010, 27 Apr 2024but what about the s24 ultra?
isnt that a good samsung phone?
Its decent, its a good phone but massively overrated and overpushed in every market worldwide so people with terrible buying mentalities (about 90% of all buyers, proven by scientific/phychology studies) go for it without thought like a lot of my mates, ive even asked why they have it and its just marketing rubbish repested back to me without understanding what they are even saying. That or "because samsung" which is what most apple phone buyers say and do (everyone i know has iphone or galaxy phone, how bad its gotten now).
Its just a "good" all rounder, isnt the best in any area from screen to charging to speakers etc) and possibly the worst design on a phone (that is just my opinion, they do have nice colour options to be fair).

It would have been a better choice to include a chipset such as the snapdragon 7s gen 2 instead of the old 7 gen 1. Otherwise the rest of the specs are just perfect.

Samsung User, 25 Apr 2024I hade a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 for the past 5 years and I c... moreYou cannot compare a Note 9 from years ago with the standards of today. Both software and hardware protocols are different. For that time, the Note 9 was a beast and it was one of the best phones I ever had. Unfortunately, we have evolved.
First of all, not all levels of phones are made equal. The prices of higher end phones are mandated through the quality of the materials in significantly different ways than what most people think. For example, when you are making a motherboard for a cheaper phones, you will use a cheaper mixture of gold for the conducters, rather than in an expensive one, which in turn reduces the quality of data transfers. In a high end phone, manufacturers have to make sure that there is not a single component to create a "bottle neck".
Then we are talking r&d, marketing, transport, taxes, and many different aspects. Buying a cheap upper midrange phone from China makes me question the SAR values first, because not a single manufacturer publishes them. I personally use the vanilla S23. You put any other phone in my hand, and I immediately notice the colour shift on the screen due to poor crystal management of the display, the poor lamination process leading to rainbow banding, the software oversharpening images, the terrible UI issues due to the mismatch between the screen's resolution and the UI's PPI management. Then we can talk antennas, signal dropping, heat management, longevity and the wear and tear of the materials.... The list goes on forever.
Manufacturing a phone ten years ago was more robust than it is nowadays; there is a reason why higher end phones are more expensive.

Pitchwisse, 25 Apr 2024Headphone jack and SD card - the reasons for not having the... moreI hade a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 for the past 5 years and I can assur you that the most of what you said is wrong, it had a SD-Slot that I used and hat no Problems with it and it also was pretty stable, yes it could be easier to engeneer but it wat already the norm back in 2010`s years so I dont think that it is that hard to do these days.
As for the 3.5mm jack, my note 9 hat a 3.5mm with AKG Headphones and they offered a good sound quality compared to anther Headphones back then and in my personal Openion till now and some how it was also waterproof with an actual open hole with connectors and like you already said (it is impossible to put a proper high quality audio dac into a phone that would drive resistent headphones) so why to bother!
There is another Point of view that i woud rather prefer whitch is that Mobile producers are stell selling there Phones in the same prices but when you buy a 200-300 $ Phone you just have to pay about 100$ extra for a proper Headphones, 25$ for a Charger and extra 2$ monthly for a Cloud storage Upgrade and whithin the expected Life Span for a Phone you already paid twice for your Phone.

Headphone jack and SD card - the reasons for not having them anymore:
Having integrated storage these days makes it significantly easier to construct and engineer a phone, rather than having to deal with another slot that needs connectors (internal and external). Also, with modern memory speeds, the overall system becomes less stable if a phone has additional storage on a separate bus, with different protocols, at different speeds. In 2024, there is absolutely not a single reason (unless you are a dedicated phone photographer/videographer so that you have to hot-swap (Xperia)) to have SD card slots.
As for the 3.5mm jack, read the engineering issue from the previous paragraph, together with water-proofing the phone that has an actual open hole with connectors. Furthermore, it is impossible to put a proper high quality audio dac into a phone that would drive resistent headphones, so the "audio quality" issue does not stand. These days (me being a music producer) the experience (not the fidelity) of the BT earbuds is more important than what you possibly might get out of a wired pair of headphones. Typical example are my SH 660s cans that no phone can drive properly.
And the most annoying part is that people who are actually complaining about such issues, are people who seem to be buying a new phone every single week, because these comments are absolutely everywhere. Get over it, go buy a pair of "Sony Linkbuds S" (amazing price to quality ratio), and if you cannot afford it then go for any pair of $20 Redmi earbuds, they will be fairly alright for the price, and not having cables is a Godsend.
Also, education matters, it saves lives.

Check why construction workers use a pair of on ears instead of in ears and you will soon understand what is what.
