As if you needed another reason not to buy Samsung

What good are 5-7 years of updates? If you don’t let us repair our phones when we need. Assuming, everything else is fine.

More info from The Verge which also mentions Samsung’s new repair provider Encompass.

Leaked documents from Samsung

What logic does Samsung think that it’s a good idea to destroy an entire phone just because of it using a third party part.

For real. Fuck samsung so hard. I can’t even get an oem replacement battery for my N20 Ultra. (I bought it used in early 2021). Managed to find one (battery) that appeared new and genuine from ebay about 2 years ago, but im going to need another in the next year or so, because there’s no replacement phone with a pen and a micro sd card slot beyond this one. Almost no phones with just the SD card slot.
