            I love the freedom it provides us on android like you can install mod apks( with premium package)
            You can use many pirated website and all
            And many more thing and for ppl who will tell me that it's for security reasons, but if you'll take some little precautions it'll be fine
            And you can all do many things on android
            I feel like ppl are only buying iPhone nowadays just to flex you know

                    If you want to spend money on a "flagship" phone that may not last after the first year due to any of the following:
                    1. White/Green Screen of death (google this for any recent samsung flagship phone)
                    2. Phone Slow down
                    3. Hoping for the fingerprint sensor to work
                    4. etc etc.

                    P.S - Been a staunch samsung fan for the past 8 years so not an easy admission of the above opinion.

                    PPS - I would recommend allocating an additional 1/3rd of the device cost due to issue 1 if you want to use the device longer than 2 years.

                        Can’t believe I registered a user. But was necessary given what I have to say. The phone is amazingly bad and ridiculously expensive. It is filled with flaws:

                        1. The finger recognition NEVER works (20% of times as best)

                        2. If you add a screen protector, even with “gel”, say goodbye to finger recognition

                        3. Face recognition works 30% of the times at best

                        4. Phone has a terrible “width to large ratio”. I am 190cm and have long hands. Even so, I would struggle to hold the phone properly. The phone is uncomfortable in almost every activity. Falls often. Slippery. Like a goddamn trout.

                        5. The design is boring and looks cheap. They didn’t put any kind of effort into it.

                        6. Phone battery sucks. Even when new. Never charged it for more than 80% neither did I let it go below 20%. Still, it aged terribly (after 2 years, my battery health was estimated at an 85% because of my care, and would still struggle to go through the day without two charges)

                        7. Terrible glitches with basic apps such as WhatsApp. Couldn’t properly set up notifications in order to mute some chats and set rings for others. Even contacted WhatsApp and Samsung. They couldn’t do anything (the phone is just trash)

                        8. Didn’t find the phone to be user friendly. Even with so many features, would still struggle to complete simple tasks.

                        9. The curvy screen makes it uncomfortable to hold and is terrible for the phone screen, which cracks with the subtlest of contacts. My screen protector was always cracked, adding for an even cheaper appearance. Touch experience also declined as a result of the screen protector (as opposed to an iPhone which fells swift, perfect, even with a screen protector)

                        10. Overall, it didn’t offer a premium experience a phone of this budget should offer. It constantly felt cheap and unsatisfying. Unexciting. Stressful. It is the phone I’ve spent more money on in my life (even more than my current iPhone 14)

                        Last comments:

                        First.- I was tired of my phone constantly underperforming, and after 2 years I got rid of the screen protector which made the phone to be even more flawed. Unsurprisingly, I dropped the phone by accident, partly as a result of the poor ergonomic deducing, and the screen cracked. That’s when I had it. Two years of hell. I didn’t think it twice to buy a new iPhone 14 offered by my carrier at a considerably lower price than the one spent for my Samsung at the moment. I cannot believe how my daily life has changed. Having a phone that simply WORKS. It is superb. Neat. Aestethic. Perfect quality. Quality accesories. It has been an oasis after two weary years of owining the Samsung. I am even amazed that, even though I’m not a “materialistic” person , an item has given so much calmness. Not happiness. Not joy. Just ease. Peace. After ditching that crap pretending to be a smartphone (Samsung S20) sold at an abusive price.

                        Second t.- I am really upset and amazed about the media and websites being so biased. Shocker? For me at least it is. I’ve always heard about media manipulation, etc; but always thought it was an exaggeration. I’m starting to change my mind now, considering how DESPITE THE OBVIOUS FLAWS OF THIS OVERPRICED PRODUCT, websites and YT Videos, etc, still insist on ranking this as a premium phone. It goes beyond my comprehension, truly. There isn’t honesty anymore. Just look at the comments on this forum. They are worth much more, both in quantity and quality, than those of a phoney influencer trying to look nice and honest , while following an agenda according to the hidden hand providing money. That’s why I registered a user in this blog. The only way to let truth be known and stand a chance against scam corporations selling overpriced products is by joining our voices together, and letting people know that they should keep off from garbage products.
                        Jeez.

                        On the bright side, I am writing this comment with my new iPhone which truly, really, has brought to me the simple task about using a phone without it being a stressful experience. Is it too much to ask? Apparently for Samsung, it is.
