Google is the company releasing halfarsed software on an FTP server every summer. Pretending they're a small hobby dev in a Finnish wood cottage, all to avoid having to own the licensing mess that comes with Linux and Android.

                                  I reckon they're jealous because it's miles better than their current device & out of their range for a new device, so they trash it instead.

                                  Anyone that knows anything knows that Samsung makes the best screens in the business.

                                  I've been using my S6 loads for nearly 3 & a 1/2 years now, mainly for playing Chess on my Super AMOLED screen, if there was an issue then surely I would experience an imprint or  an impression of a chessboard.

                                  But I don't see this on my S6 & I've looked hard to see with full brightness @ max nits on both clear white & clear black backgrounds, with no 'Burn in' trace whatsoever.
