      It’s been really bad recently on my Fold 3, but didn’t start happening until about a year after I got the phone.

      I think they wait for all the reviews and “1 year updates” from the YouTubers to pull this shit.

      They honestly can’t make that much off this bullshit on a per-device level. My phone costs more than 2 cars I’ve owned, and I could just buy a Pixel Fold next upgrade, so it wouldn’t take a huge percentage of users jumping ship to mage or more costly than profitable.

      If MKBHS, Linus Tech Tips, etc called them out in their reviews of Samsung devices it would stop overnight.
