Why to follow only bad things and not dare to follow good things also. Apple provides 5 years of software support to all their iPhones and iPads. Will Shamesung dare to provide the same support (Monthly security updates and Annual OS updates) for 5 years to all their phones?

      I am expecting other companies to follow, sadly.
      Just a small suggestion, especially if at some point you want to buy phones capable of very fast charging (at least 30W), buy the chargers now. Who knows how much this chargers will cost in the future (they will be considered premium accessories, lol).
      Or even worse, companies will make their phones work only with their own chargers (through software tricks or something).
      Oh boy, I can hardly wait to see what happens with this chargers situation.

        Apple jump.
        Samsung how high!

          Well this didn't take long to think Samsung would be the first android phone maker to follow apple removing the charge. I am shocked 😮

            Who needs a samsung devices anymore. There are many cheaper and functioning of phone companies providing good quality products.

            All the high end brands are getting greedy and think the customer is an endless money bag for them.

              and very soon. all smartphone brands will follow. all for money.

                FU Samsung!!! Always copying what Apple is doing! You’ll regret doing that kind of BS move your going to make! Hope that the Huawei ban will be lifted and will recover soon enough so that these BS Apple, Samsung and whoever will go with this route will be bankrupt sooner or later! This kind of company is all about money first not helping the world at all!

                  Europe needs to call them out on this. If they don't comply, fine them bigly and sanction their phones until they provide the necessary item to use a phone.

                    Samsung is the Apple of Android

                      Pure unbiased Greed in the name of environment.

                        And this is why I hate Apple. They make ridiculous decisions out of greed, and the brainless idiots at Samsung and other companies must follow the fruit company because they can't think for themselves.

                          Try to boycott these type of companies.

                            Most people have fast chargers already, so it's not that big of a deal.

                                I hope the warranty covers damages when using other chargers now since they don't provide one. This decision kills the purpose of having a phone that is ready for use after purchasing if you don't have a spare charger in the house because if you sell your older phone let's say cex your charger is required

                                      Apple did it and people still buy it as nothing happened.
                                      All the other producers: Look people don't give a shit. They just cry on internet and buy it anyway. We will also do it.
                                      But ok at Samsung they are also stupid. To mock Apple and then do it at the next phone they launch. But yes, nothing will happen. All will still sell millions of units. So why would they give a shit.

                                        If the charger is 25W, i am fine, it is not that fast. But if it is an real 45w one (Past samsung phones 45W are gimmicky), then maybe i will take it. 25E full charges my Note 10 Plus at 82 minutes, while the 45W does so at 72 minutes, only 10 minutes better, what a shame, and both have the same amount of heat.
