  2.  @fantabuloussnuffaluffagus  My Note 9 (same gen) got its last update somewhere in mid-late 2021. And I bought it right at the end of 2019... so it wasn't even 2 years. Samsung extended their updating timeframe with the 10 series AFAIK. But to be fair, I'm still happy with the device and won't get a new one anytime soon. There aren't even any Notes anymore, which sucks. Would love a Z-Fold, but the price... and where would I put my S-Pen? Those do at least support them. BTW have been on an S3 right until I got the N9... that hadn't gotten updates in a really long time while I still was rocking it.

  3.  @azenyr  Wich, as I already stated, is great, to be fair. I just got my stuff just right before that, being a Note 9 and a Tab S6 which was the top model in 2020 (not 100% sure, but I think it was released in 2019, but it was like half a year after I got it when they dropped the S7), actually, but hasn't received updates in almost a year by now. And it still has some minor annoyances that could easily be fixed as they're just a software thing.

  4. 1:10 Old enough to remember? I literally did this just like 2 or 3 months ago on my still running Galaxy S3. And yes, I still could buy a replacement battery for that in 20 fricken 23. Not an original one, but one that was actually produced in this very year! It's literally easier than inserting a *bleeping* SIM card! And that "IP69" excuse is complete and utter bullsh! My Note 3 has a *bleeping* barometer, a thermometer and a hygrometer. Guess what, later models didn't have than anymore because Samsung felt the need to "IP69" their devices because people are *bleeping* stupid and kept throwing their devices into fluid substances of all sorts. Whenever I heard such stories, I was like "And this is why you handle a 1000 dollar device like a 1000 dollar device - with pure and utmost caution! It was *bleeping* expensive, you don't wanna lose it on pulling a *bleeping* Linus!" XD 2:32 Totall based statement, but it is what it is... 5:50 Speaking of which... my dad spilled a cup of coffee near an iPhone 4 which obviously didn't have any removable parts. It died. Well, kinda. Storing it in a box full of rice for a few weeks and then trying to turn it on actually was successful. 6:32 Even not knowing the details which thing this is about, it had me in stitches! :D 7:50 Absolutely based! 7:55 Even more based! It's Alumin-I-um! 8:54 It's just ridiculous! :D 9:52 You know what? I do have a Note 3. It was one of the first devices to "feature" a, let's call it camera tit. Yes you heard it right. The camera sticks out like a tit. Totally common thse days, isn't it? But at least that one was *bleeping* centered and the thing doesn't look like one tit is missing! Guess what? I bought the fricken Qi charging cover. Just awesome. The charging is awesome and that fricken device is completely flush with it! That's how it's supposed to be. Sleek and comfortable. I bought the Note 9 because it's relatively flush as well... I just hate how phones look with those AbSoLuTe UnItS of a cam block sticking out of an otherwise ultraflat-by-design device. Really? I'd rather a thiccer device with flush and straight lines that that, totally. But Apple did it, and everyone and their dog had to copy it. As always... Apple sucks! 10:49 Well played. Well played. 11:22 Samsung be like: "We've been doing this ever since!" Like putting their own Enyxos chips instead of Snapdragons in the device, less RAM and leaving out LTE. And yes, I'm talking about the EU S3 ripoff. Grand Scam... and they kept doing that for a long time. 12:43 I'm losing it! Absolutely nailed it! "to impress the people that we don't like" - classic *bleepis* enlargement in a nutshell! XD
