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.

literally all it would take for me to consider Samsung over the Pixel again would be:

  • No Samsung bloatware

What are they paying those high priced marketing consultants? I'm pretty sure I'm cheaper.

Samsung s23 ultra is my first Samsung and despite having come from Pixels and Oneplus I found I actually liked the Samsung stuff like edge panel, one hand plus+ operation, and sound assistant. All the good lock additions was like getting custom rom features. Find it hard to consider a phone without something like the Spen too now, since I use it to take notes and select text.

For me it's the dex mode when I connect my s22 to a monitor, I use it daily at work with a kvm so I can work on one monitor and VPN to my home vm on a second monitor with my phone, I came from a pixel 3 and the nexus 5 before that and I hope the s22 lasts me forever
