Re: Bye bye Samsung

Not just connected devices. This crap has a knockon effect.

I held Samsung in high regard, then their tablets started getting funny with Microsoft and Bixby was forced onto me, and the Samsung TV I bought would phone home on every change of channel (and always starts up on the Samsung TV IPTV channel too now), and I decided I had enough of Samsung.

It was like a switch in my head said 'enough'.

So, I need to upgrade a fridge, the old one was Samsung and cheap, I decided I'd try a Chinese one for a change. Hisense, 66% the price, all glass shelves no Korean plastic, and shock horror, works perfectly and reliably.

The next vacuum cleaner that breaks, I won't replace it with a Samsung.

These are not connected devices, I just don't feel like Samsung is a quality brand to me anymore, and so why pay a premium for it?
