In my case I wanted a damn SD card slot. And more than 2 years of security updates.

Sony still sells flagship phones with an SD slot. I wish my Xperia was cheaper but other than that I'm very happy with it.

Not in the US.

Motorola. Plus it still has an audio port.

I miss the flashlight chop, but at the time I moved away updates were short and migration was "you're on your own"

Ano now you see why Samsung is able to provide all that at an attractive price. The real costs are hidden.

The more expensive phones don't have SD card slots!

But yeah, presumably in the cheaper markets the Candy Crush whales are subsidizing the phones. Like with Windows these days. Anyway time to go back to playing Fortnite and Marvel Rivals

hmm have you actually read the article? did you find anything of "substance" other than hand-wavy "this company is from israel, so must be mosad" or "has notorious for its questionable practices" (without even giving actual examples or incidents)?

I mean, if I was the mosad guy planting a deal with samsung, I wouldn't even name the app "AppCloud"

heck, why would you even make it appear to the user?

this is a classic competitor-bashing article -- no substance, only hand-wavy "this guys bad!"

I'm guessing this can be traced to others like xiami/huawei/etc who definitely want to get samsung's slice of the market there
