    S10e is my last Samsung phone anyway, 3h SoT (exynos) is a complete pile of crap and no company should be even allowed to manafucture such a joke of a phone

      I´m planning to switch from Apple to Samsung and then this...
      Better buy a Huawei or Xiaomi then.

        Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

        Samsung is waking up the sheep, by doing the exact malpractice that people justify with some rubbish.

        I personally don't support it, but WOW. Shave the Sheep ...

              With 3x hybrid zoom i'll pass, the ultra is too big and expensive. Now also i need a new charger. They made my decision easy, i'll wait for something new from Xiaomi at a better price/value ratio with accesories, faster charger that those Samsung offer even paying, etc. And maybe watch if Honor or Vivo can offer an alternative.

              I hope that a future Mi Note 11 comes with telescopic camera and it'll eve better if they add a pen now that Samsung cut everything and even Killed Note series. And also Mr Jack, why not. Samsung each year worse.

                Smithravi, 08 Dec 2020Well now they're the only flagship phones with headpho... moreV60 has jack.

                  I'm okay with the decision that Samsung has made. I already have 5 chargers and 2 car chargers.
                  5x18w
                  2x60w
                  I'm totally ready for buying the S21.

                    Nail in the coffin. I already was never getting a Samsung flagship because of their hypocrisy but now, they're not even trying to hide it. Don't care if the charger can come as a 'pre-order bonus'; this is ridiculous. Only flagship I'm looking forward to is the Xperia one mark iii. Otherwise, it's either the ROG 3 or a 7xx phone for my next handset.

                      Aren't they forced to include at least the charger here in the EU.
                      AFAIK, in France both the charger and earphones are mandatory and they had to ship the IPhones in 2 boxes.
                      Not sure about the rest of the EU tho

                        "I'll keep with my Android phone and charger..."
                        Wait for it.

                          Apple tries to manipulate the market with its "loyal customers". Samsung as always copies Apple and the result it's obvious, more profit for them less stuff for us.. customers accepted this, so enjoy

                            F that fruit company and all android companies that follow its crappy decisions.

                                  First of all : I'm not approving the choices of both companies, but al least Samsung has been using USB-C chargers for a long time (even fast charging for the newer generations) and the wall-bricks work with any cable since it connects with USB.

                                  Apple on the other hand decides to change the charger to USB -C to lightning and NOT include the wall brick but a cable which you can not use with the old wall-bricks?

                                  Again : Not including chargers in the box for phones that are well over the 1000 Euro price tags is just questionable by itself.

                                        Everything Apple does Samsung seem to do the same thing,samsung must be working with Apple All the time,and act like Babies having to copy everything they do,
