There are 4 Samsung apps that I'll erase if it'll be just a tap. So it's not very 👎. I can use Android debug bridge to erase those but I won't bother. If there are 30 bloat apps, I'll erase those.

I've been using my Samsung a70 for about 2 years. The Samsung apps are generally fine.

I do wholeheartedly agree that Samsung writes shit software tho, but their customizations for the last seven years stopped frying my phone. (S2 was okay, S3 was such a dumpster fire of a phone caused by Samsung's deplorable coding)

I have the impression that OS restrictions imposed by Google on latest versions of Android and - perhaps - the move to Kotlin improved it. I have been using a S10+ and had no issues with software. Crappy software can be removed without root using ADB and, in my region, Samsung does not bundle carrier crap (except stupid Facebook stuff that is still present in S10 and even S24 series)

I never understood this

iPhones are fashion accessories before anything else.

Samsung for some fuckdamn reason just copycats everything Apple does.

The curved glass was a stupid, expensive, and failure prone attempt at capturing the fashion accessory market.

All it did was piss off eight years of customers.

It really is amazing how companies with ridiculous amounts of money for research and product testing and they hang on to an abject failure like this for so long.

There are a few phones (I hope there'll be more) that last 2 days with medium use. I'm :) for folks with those phones.
