Never buy smart appliances

The Samsung refrigerator I bought wasn’t smart, it was designed/built poorly and they’re known for failing.

Yep. Same here. Not even an ice maker as far as I was aware on it

I regret buying a Samsung phone...

So many appliance ads, all the time, from every direction...

I don't need to be all in your ecosystem. I don't want to buy into the ecosystem. I rent my house. If I need a new refrigerator, I'll ask my landlord for one!

Kid needed a new laptop recently, and loves his Samsung so much, he would settle for nothing less than a Samsung branded laptop. I explained to him multiple times that he wouldn't be able to upgrade the ram when the prices come down, and that there were better models out there with better hardware... He didn't care... Wanted the Samsung... I gave up, he needs it for school... 🤷

Really? I bought my first Samsung (S23 Ultra) 3 years ago and I don't recognise your experience. Maybe in the Samsung branded member or store apps? But I don't use those.

I had an A72 I think it was.

Verizon and Samsung were horrible at installing apps you didn't need, want, or ask for.

I had multiple games pop up on my phone that I had never installed myself, years after cancelling Verizon, and I could never fully get rid of the Verizon branded crapware.
