31 January 2024
The mobile division did better than most other divisions, though.

Serves Scamsung right for declining quality and takin... moreYeah, they should bring back the 3,5mm jack so you can use dad's old Technics headphones like you used to in the 90s listening to CDs from his hi-fi setup. Remember those, with the rotating 5 CD plate tray? Good memories.
Let's go step further, bring back mag-tape Walkmans, who wouldn't like to swap AAA batteries on the go once more?
They should also let you use pre-flood SD cards so your SD 8 Gen 3 can leisurely load pictures like in the 56k modem times, where you could watch it load pixel after pixel, line after line. Because that's progress - lightning-fast CPUs and magnetic tape-era data loading speeds for the marginal but vocal minority that can't be bothered to download pictures using cable, once every 3 years (even if it takes longer than just swapping SD card, I mean, who can be bothered to wait for 30 minutes once every two or three years, right?). Oh, but wait, if you pay extra, you can buy the high speed version so you don't feel as much difference! Just wait for moaners to roll in with their argument they have to pay extra. Sigh.

And then you'll come on stage and moan Samsung isn't making enough progress, the phone isn't faster compared to last gen, it isn't better enough in myriad of more or less useful areas, while at the same time demanding cavemen-era solutions to still be chugged along into the 21st century because YOU and THREE OTHER people want it because you and adaptation to change are an oxymoron.

    They should increase even more prices and offer nothing different from other makers. That will shurely work again. Meanwhile Tecno is offering foldable in half a price and excellent usability. Nobody goes diving with their phone, hell most of techno geeks dont even shower regulary.

        Good. Serves Scamsung right for declining quality and taking away key features like IR blaster, headphone jack and SD card support.
