I provide that I have had every Samsung flagship since the Galaxy S3 and I have not had one instance of hardware failure. Sure some of their devices of the past have had poor software (TouchWiz sucked) and some were cheap and plasticky albeit durable and able to swap batteries easily. The S25 Ultra is every bit as quality of a build as my iPhone 16PM, Pixel 9 Pro Fold, or OnePlus 13 that I just got in today. I have hands on experience with almost every flagship in the US in the last 15+ years I don't need to base my thoughts on what some torture test which goes to a ridiculous extreme on a YouTube channel provides or an unsubstantiated assertion of planned obsolesence by Samsung which your wiki link defining planned obsolesence did not substantiate. Truth is all manufacturers do this to a degree. You conveniently forget Apple releasing software updates to purposely slow down older phones. Facts...any manufacturer that puts a shelf life on support of a phone participates in planned obsolesence and that is justifiable as the hardware reaches a point that it just doesn't perform anymore to a level required by the evolution of apps and software these devices run and the network technology implemented by carriers. But Apple purposely slowing down their phones and degrading battery life thru updates is far more egregious than anything Samsung has been accused of. I think this all leads back to being critical of glue holding on the camera rings. I couldn't care less about that.View attachment 2486000View attachment 2486001
Accuse only right?
