    Least did the right thing? Apple did it and were forgiven!

      And with sd 8 Gen 1 trust me you need that Gos, otherwise prepare your body to live with 60C hot phone.

        Samsung is pulling a tyrant move with GOS

        This is android we are talking about where people are going to dig into the phone and research it

        Not like apple where whatever they tell them they suck it up

          Thanks Scamsung
          Scamsung is truly our savior
          Only those good Koreans knows what other "Optimizations" and "features" are pre built on these devices that the world needs to discover
          But always remember guys apple bad, Scamsung good

            GOS is good. When we play games we need all the existing power. And when gaming we need nothing else. NOTHING! Is all about power. And Samsung give it to us. So good and clever. And usable. Dont cry people just enjoy the power.

                  The screen is less bright too.

                  Otherwise the same but smaller and easier to use one handed.

                  I agree though would be good if gsm would do their battery endurance test for comparison.

                    Don't know if A52 is affected or not. If yes just give an option to max out the performance.

                      In the meantime you could read the S22+ Review & the S22 Preview:
                      https://m.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=11252&idPhone2=11253

                      My main concern (as with any compact) would be the battery, IMO they could've just made it a mm thicker & kept last years 4,000 mAh battery, you could also see any genuine feedback from S22 users in the comments.

                        Still waiting for the s22 review... Really considering switching to another site, it's been so long.

                          They should do the same with Bixby and Facebook app. I don't need those apps I don´t want them on my smartphone. Once I've blocked all Bixby apps related, the battery improved a lot. It seems that was actived to listen 24/24.

                            Never even noticed mine was being throttled... Honestly kinda happy about this since I can now choose between running games at lower performance for better battery life (AFK grinding) or switch to high gear (actually playing the game myself). I can't think of any other phone that offers this feature off the top of my head?

                              Again it only proved S series got update and A series and M series will be lucky if they get 1 android update and 2 years of security patches along with 1-2 UI upgrades

                                      I saw a comment that someone tested the A52s and it was also throttled when running GOS. Imagine a midranger with half the performance, does it get any worse? I'm gonna look for alternatives in the future.

                                        To match battery endurance of Full HD screen when using QHD, only if samsung downclock all cores to 1,5GHz at most.
                                        Screen is the main "villain".
