We all want better for our money. I don't like Samsung seemingly marching in place on these releases, but I see why they do it.
I'm all in favor better camera tech in every phone.

innovation has stalled and you don't need huge leaps every single year. People don't upgrade every year. almost like Samsung knows more about phone production and marketing than gsm users 🤭

Try buying a flagship with Chinese OS from chinese online vendor. You might find a great deal.

vik457, 10 Jan 2025I could say same thing about "luke"You are literally a troll or ai bot - this is Samsung thread, yet you spam under each and everyone within 30sec of their post. Not sure why GSMArena tolerates such posts, that is common for cheap fandriven sites out there.
But yes, we all here are used to that from some fans. If you don't like it you can go to Xiaomi. Eu or Android Hilfe or Reddit..and see how people there will react to you and your information.
Enough said, I'll be ignoring you from now onwards

It absolutely does look like new because I take care of my phones, but that's not even what I said, I said it works like new. I don't use it as my main, because I have better phones, but I could, and I often still switch back to and I miss nearly nothing from my newer devices.

The solution is already there. It is just chinese flagship fans that overthink much.
Want phone with random & AI generated design = buy chinese phone.
Want phone with signature design = buy Samsung or iPhone or Pixel.

DarlingYext, 10 Jan 2025Changing appearance for the sake of change is bad, I agree,... moreAs long as it doesnt look like a chinese phone. I am perfectly okay with design.
Nobody wants to spend 1000 USD on a phone, and still being mistaken as a chinese phone. The fact that people know i have phone with popular brand Samsung is enough for me.
Like i said before, the cheapest BMW car or most expensive BMW car is still BMW car.

I get uniformity and all, and people will feel good about their A series looking like a flagship, but I don't think that's a good feeling when you spend near $1000 and end up looking like you own a midrange phone.
