nicodomsam, 31 Jan 2024KARMA - ain't that a bi--ch, right people ! Deserves ... moreHow is it karma? Before this, didn't they register good sales record even after how badly they messed up the S20 green lines and breaking camera islands?
And they took down Xperia 1/5 Mark 2 with them because those two used defective Samsung panels.

    Anonymous, 31 Jan 2024Their phones are good but way overpriced. Huh? Samsung S series subreddits have users complaining how the company screws their cameras with certain updates. Most specially when there is a brand new S series launching.

        here's a idea how to fix that....sett up higher prices, so when you sell less, you're make more or at least equal profit!!!
        don't try to compete with other android competition, you are Samsung, you need to compete only with Apple, but make your phones even more expensive, so eople can understand how premium your products are.
        it will work 100%... try it also with OLED screens and Exinos Soc

          well well if it isn't the consequences of their own actions , please keep trying to shove Exynos garbage down your premium costumer's throats. Let's see how much lower your financial results can get...

              Or did you think your Spotify transmits OGG or WAV?
              It's not about lossless or not - it's whether the loss is perceivable and the entire MP3 format works around the idea that some sound frequencies are muted out by others and can be completely cut out of the song without perceptive loss of quality.
              Therefore what you are talking about is an audiophile territory and I highly doubt people of such sublime hearing will be using smartphones for their daily music dose. We're talking lamp amps, not some bloody smartphone.

              And I can't hear that well anymore so for me, BT is just as fine as wire, but that is my perception only. Maybe I wouldn't lose as much hearing, but in 2000s there were no active noise cancelling earphones.

                            You guys realize that the Samsung's mobile division (MX) has increased profits of around 10 percentages compared to last year. The decline is because of the loses of semiconductors division (DS), and have nothing to do with their smartphones and all to do with the memory chip market.
                            Don't act a fool, use your brains :D

                                  I´ll see you back here in a few years complaining when they take away something you use (and don´t think it will not happen, you are letting them do it)

Deserves them right - for selling quality defect galaxy screens \ SCAMS , they hurt thousands of owners who bought 6.7-inch screens which had warranty just expired followed up with OS patch updates. Down with SamSung Corrupt business practice ...... just you wait - KARMA !
