      Sure, you’re excited about the Samsung Galaxy S.

      Now.

      Stop.

      And imagine 6 months after you bought the Galaxy. You’re angry. You been lied to. The promised updates never come. There are real problems just using the phone. Forums like this fill with users like you, angry, dumping the phone, and comparing how little they can get for it on craigslist. $150? If you’re lucky.

      You’ll never buy a Samsung product again. Samsung has hired a PR firm to try to hide the real problems you and thousands of others are having with the phone.

      This is real.

      Do some research on the Samsung Behold II. This is Samsung’s business model.
      1) Shiny new phone with promised updates
      2) Wait… there’s no money in supporting a phone, only in selling new ones.
      3) Refuse promised updates on under plainly false pretenses.
      4) Go to step 1.
      5) Profit.


      Please, do not buy this or any other Samsung phone. HTC and Apple make nice phones that they support. Tell your friends.

      I’m just a regular guy who fell for their lies. Don’t be me, 6 months from now, in a forum, writing this same message.

        Will this phone come to Verizon? I mean this design, not the original Galaxy S design.
        I'm so excited with this phone. If the Galaxy S with keyboard won't appear soon, I will absolutely get it.

            for the last decade, samsung has been well respected world-wide. they are the trend setter in electronic devices. they made LED TVs, 3D TVs, best screen phones, and also large capacity D-RAMs. dude i don't know what kind of survey you read, but Samsung is the best home appliance maker. Sony cannot even compete against Samsung...
            samsung even developed the processor in iphone.

              Anonymous, 21 Jun 2010"stop being imitators and earn some respect, it's true... moreYes that's the reason why they are not in the trusted and respected list while sony is the first hehe.

              people buy from samsung not because they respect them but because they are cheap! yes cheap samsung in everyway. I feel sorry for them but fact is fact.

              Tell me when you buy anything whether its a mobile, laptop, car would you like people to observe you as something that deserves respect or observe you as a cheap copy cat? It's your choice pal, believe me most of the world doesn't respect samsung it's not only me.

              This survey included 24 countries around the golbe : Austria, Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, The Netherlands, Norway, Russia, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

              Doesn't this tell you something? Who is living in his own dreaming world now?
              I was never wrong when I disrespected samsung from the beginning and now the world proved my point.

                How can samsung gain or increase sales and profit if many people does not respect or trust the brand? Am I following this? duh!

                The answer would be that samsung brand is the ultimate and irresistable because of innovation, design and being a trendsetter!

                  We have the right to laugh and make jokes of you because you are simply copying and pasting our designs. No one made fun of the wave or beam because they are great devices.

                  But this device is just a joke! No flash, even worse they copy the iphone and then they copy the x10, get a life samsung and start making your own designs for god sakes.

                  stop being imitators and earn some respect, it's true your gaining money but your losing peoples respect day after day.

                      [deleted post]The fact is me and you know for sure that both samsung and sony are both wealthy, strong and populer. So let's be reasonable and fair on this one.

                      However, the huge difference is that Sony is the most respected tech brand in the world now while samsung is down the hills! Even apple and nokia are way more respected than samsung. By the way I read all about this survey, and the major thing was that people voted for the brand which they found more creative and that provided them with true innovations.

                      So the question is my friend? Why didn't samsung make it? Samsung was not even in the top 10 neither in the top 20! So this proves for sure that samsung is the number one copy cat, yes they have the technology and everything, yes they have more sales, but the word invent does not exist in their world and therefore they lost their respect!!

                      So since Sony now have the wealth and the respect I find no reason at all to even purchase anything from samsung.

                            First point i would like to point out, sony fans are trying to censor the fact that samsung is in fact in the list, they shows news link that doesnt have samsung in the list. Secondly, With sony jumping 125 rank within a year, how reliable can this ranking be?

                              SE 2010, 20 Jun 2010Again let's read together what Dr.Charles Fombrun mentioned... moreComprehension fail much? he said "Companies like..." which means he doesn't limit the corporations he deemed as respectable to only the ones he listed in his statement.

                                  Again let's read together what Dr.Charles Fombrun mentioned:


                                  "Technology has a powerful grip on the global rankings," says Dr. Charles Fombrun, Chairman of Reputation Institute. "Companies like Google, Sony, Apple, Nokia, Intel, and Microsoft have earned our trust and respect because they are all-pervasive solution-providers that affect our daily lives. Disney's global mind-share as an entertainment provider is remarkable, as is the admiration with which consumers hold auto-makers BMW and Daimler/Mercedes-Benz. They are power-houses of reputation-building around the world."


                                  Didn't you notice that there was not even a single world about samsung, this means that no matter how much samsung earns money it's still not respected. Well how can the world respect a copy cat right? It makes total sense.

                                  Thanks again Dr. Charles Fombrun for proving again that I was right :)

                                  Cheers!

                                    Let's face it both sony and samsung are good. But the different is that sony is the most respected brand in the world and samsung is not even close, that's the different.

                                    People truly respect sony and this is not the case with samsung, let's just face it, this is reality and this is the truth.

                                    Even apple is in 6th place followed by nokia in 7th place which is also great, but what about samsung hmmm I don't think so :)
