Why? GSMA should ar least apologize for making false accusations (Yesterday's title was that samsung's charger is a lie) , when, in fact, they were using the wrong charger (Note 10's 45 watts charger) for a different phone. Many people were saying this in the comments section, but they go unnoticed because everyone loves to hate.
Sorry, gsma may be the best at what they do, but they have made mistakes in the past, just like with this incident.
This only proves that you should never believe 100% what you read, especially in the fake news era.
Don't get me wrong, I despise Samsung for quitting on the SD card slot, the 3.5mm jack, WQHD+ displays, stainless steel frame, no charger and headphones in the box. This is why I'm switching to Sony. No SD card slot = NO BUY!
Samsung, you ditch my favorite feature from the high-end flagships, (the SD card slot), I ditch you like old socks without blinking!

Misha.85, 21 Feb 2022I wish you kept the 'is a lie' titleI wish they did. It triggered a lot of Samsung fanboys. Their products are solid across the board but man, the fanbase needs to chill. Suddenly Apple fanboys don’t seem so bad. 😅

My charging speed differs from yours so much. I'm using third party 65w charger and my charging time from 0-100 with s22 ultra is so much faster than yours?? 46 mins

Hemedans, 21 Feb 2022How is 800 cycles 1200 days? Even if my phone drop to 20% t... moreMan 800 cycles means 800 times charging the battery.
If battery on your cell phone can last 2 days means 1 charge every 2 days reaching 800 cycles or charges in 1600 days which is 4 and half years in which time 98-99% of people will swap their phone for something new.
Even if your battery will last only day and half or you will charge it sometimes every day and sometimes twice a day you reach 800 cycles in like 3 years which 90% of people swaps their phone for something new and fresh.
The other thing since researching and developing SVOOC battery technology and charging brick evolved a lot. Chance that the charger gets 50 celsius or your battery is really small.
Even if so it wont drain your battery pretty fast but will last 2-3 years with 90% of initial capacity.
And as most carries gives you new phone on monthly plan every two years most people will swap their device for something new.
And even in worst case scenario unless you own overpriced apple swaping the battery in any low to mid ur upper mid range device cost between 10 to 40 euros depends on service centre and country you live in.
Thus for example in India or Chian it will cost like 10 maybe even less and in cuntries like USA, Germany, Finland, Switzerland etc will cost around 40 maybe up to 50 euros which is like 10 euros in India or China compared to their salary with salary in India or China.

Xiaomi, OnePlus and Realme are testing my battery, while Samsung and Apple are testing my patience. Lol.
I am for super fast charging speeds, because I usually do not use a phone for more than couple of months, maximum 1 year. So, I don't care about battery degradation.
But, I also understand the point of Samsung and especially Apple. They want to keep the people using their phones for as much as possible. That is why they give updates for 5-6 years. They get a lot of money from subscriptions to their services.

A lot of people also drain batteries so far that phone just dies. That's also spinning "cycles" faster.

I've said it before. Samsung is the Apple of the Android world. People buy it for the brand name. Their phones are not among the best in the Android world.

I usually do not comment out, but i want to put my experience here.
I come from all way xiaomi, but i am feeling like lately, they are pushing prices high and high and offering little in compensation, i remember the days when xiaomi was almost at par with high end, software was almost flawless ( almost ) but cost you 1/2 or 2/5 of a flagship price.
Nowadays i went from my XIAOMI Mi 11, to Samsung S21 Ultra on black friday ( 1k€ for special color 512gb/16gb ram), and i have to say it is faster in almost everything, though overall the screen feels a tad better on the xiaomi, the ultra's is brighter under sunlight ( maybe some coating ).
Cameras? Well neck and neck the main cameras in good light, in average or tricky light no contest, the S21U is better.
Features? Have you tried connect your usb-c to a TV and enjoy full desktop experience? not bad, but besides this it has some other tech goddies that come in handly from time to time, like the SPen that i use often to sign up documents.
But overall for 1 thousand it costed me, i think nowadays xiaomi is not giving its best, and samsung has matured quite well, but i think they still have the same problems year after year.
I am not saying xiaomi is not good, but they are going up in prices, and offer little in exchange, to sum up and add one more thing, in my country we do not have official support, the camera lens on my Mi11 stopped working and i had to send it.
It came working again, but a fingerprint inside the optics makes photos now quite worse, because the service is not official it is external companies that do this fixing which is quite disappointing.
Kind regards to all GSMArena users.
