        Man xiaomi is far better than samsung in every aspect because for much less price you get much better device.
        Stop talking nonsense and wake up.
        If they really sells rubbish then they wouldnt be number one smartphone manufacturer.
        You are clearly obsessed with that bloatware UI Samsung brand with no charger and earphones in box where the latest flagship cost equal to previous one even you get much less in box.
        And where in every phone you have dual apps and toons of other bloatware like Samsung health, Samsung Internet, Dex, Bixby and many more.
        Clean pure android with no bloatware is the future.
        Maybe MUI by Xiaomi is not much better but at least it contains lot less bloatware and every their device is far better than Samsung can ever make for same ammount of money.

          I think Samsung will be forgotten when the Metaverse kicks in. People won't use mobile phones anymore and Samsung has no backup plan. If they don't enter the race now they're out forever.

                    "Eh, how many kids i have? Three? Ok lets split LG into 3 main division. each of them can get one"

                      Apple were the ones to introduce the notch and a lot of other Android OEMs copied it and it became a trend. Note the latest MacBooks also have a notch, which really shouldn't exist, but they did also increase the screen size for it anyway.

                      If anything the merger of the departments will help streamline software development and hardware allocation. Some Samsung TVs were using Tizen (formerly Bada), which was used in the Wave phones and some of Samsung's cameras when they were in the segment.

Unless you can get the average person to appreciate the vibrant punchy colors aren't better, Samsung has little incentive to put out properly calibrated displays.

                        It's absurd but customers generally prefer the saturated display settings (at least at the point of device purchase).

                          I dont think Samsung will ever beat TSMC in worst case they will close phone division like LG.
                          No matter how they try Xiaomi will be always beter because for same ammount of money they give 2-3 times better specced device.

                            unification ecosystem, i presume.

                              Many samsung gamer complain about fps drop in games
                              And they are moving on iphone to play pubg mobile and codm

                              The amount of pubg player and codm is huge and apex mobile will be on playstore soon if only samsung could fix the fps drop in games many gamer will return to samsung

                                Will the new CEO bring original ideas, or are they progressing to now copy the notch-everything movement (phones, tablets, laptops, cannot wait for TVs to have notch also).
                                Will they also at least pretend about customer service with these changes if they cannot be bothered to release a product that performs what its spec sheet states without 10 firmware updates 2 years later?

                                  [deleted post]They actually do. mrwhosetheboss made a video about Samsung with title: "What you don't know about Samsung" in which he described it. Samsung is the Power of Korea, they are involved in many sector other than electronics. Don't forget, they started as a noodles shop.

                                  But I guess Samsung doesn't think it'll be worth the effort to destroy Apple HQ so they are just on their own way 🤷‍♂️
