Big Galaxy S24 leak reveals Samsung's strategy against Google's Pixel phone (www.androidcentral.com)

Quoting the tl;dr in the linked article:

Samsung could be stepping up its game by offering seven years of major Android updates for the Galaxy S24 series, and the generous update policy might extend to other Galaxy flagships.

The Galaxy S24 series might also introduce charges for AI features like Live Translate and Pixel-like photo editing tools after 2025.

There's speculation that users may need to sign in to their Samsung accounts for certain AI functionalities.

You don't need to charge it though.

Don't even need to sustain it. Just slow it's discharge. I don't need 100% phone.

I barely go out. Either at the office or at home.

Once we get solid state batteries in phones. A slow charge overnight and and slowing charge during the day. That's all I need. Probably a lot of people.

People who are flying and all over the place. They have something for they. Battery packs. They don't need kits all over the place. Can charge on plane. Can charge in Uber. Can charge on bus. In pubs/cafes.

You may want to watch the video. Specifically the 2.5mW segment.

My pixel has a slow charge feature I think. It uses that by default at night usually. Pretty nifty I guess.

I have the same. Every phone should. It's just thrashing the battery and you don't need full charge an hour after going to bed. It's got hopefully 8 hours to charge.
