You know what? Maybe Apple is expensive, but they would never do this. Even on their lowest offerings like the SE. Never.
Samsung is just throwing its reputation away. Im fed up with them. Next smartphone >>> Apple

    I would prefer a Samsung phone with ads that you can disable (opt-out) as long as it would have a competing pricepoint or same pricepoint but better hardware. BUT this is impossible as Samsung itself invests in marketing the most, the expense in heavy marketing is always offloaded as added cost to the phone which were common practice by not just Samsung, Vivo, Oppo, etc.

      The reason I'm using Samsung instead of chinese brands with better performance, is because of better user experience. If this news is true, I'm gonna throw my A50 from the window.

          Another way Samsung wants to monetarize us more. If this happens, it will be the last time I buy a Samsung device. I'm tired of all the failures in this industry and we ( the customers ) paying for their mistakes. Samsung has made some of best and innovative tech in this industry, but they are all about Samsung, not the customer. We own the hardware and license the software. When are entitled to say what software/features we want on our devices and how they work..it is our device and our data. Some how we are force to accept what the company wants. We need to push back people ! this has become a one-sided story. They tell us how it's going to be and tough if you don't like it !! I DON"T WANT BLOATWARE on my device, they cause problems and spy on you. I want to uninstall the software I don't want or use. Too much hacking and it's all because poorly developed software. Say NO people!! Buy the phones that have less software or be able to uninstall them ( disabling an app is different, it's still there and runs in background due to startup dependencies).

            Note 10, 09 Jun 2020Only battery life is the same (:Nobody wants to use iPhone SE where you have to carry around a brick bigger than the phone just to be able to get thru the whole day.

            SE 2020 is a 2-3hr SOT phone.
            It begs for a charger immediately after some heavy usage.
            You get what you pay for!

                Anonymous, 09 Jun 2020That SE2020 looking better n better Only midgets are buying this phone.
                4.7 inches display is outdated compared to the 6.5 inch average of Android phones.
                Content consumption, gaming, web browsing everything is better on big screen.
                Heck even texting and typing using a keyboard on tiny 4.7 inch screen is cumbersome for most users.

                IPhone SE is a niche device which will only be preferred by people who want smaller compact phones. Majority of the users aren't going to sacrifice the big screen real estate.

                        Then again, Samsung have ads in built in system apps, in the last year or so, but it seems, Samsung users even don'ty know for that :/
