@delhi_dude @thesauruspg @PlayCODMobile Yeah, once a month is rubbish now. No other streamers for me had such good fun playing, was great to watch and more importantly, to listen to too. Time to move on i guess.

@tarunvats33 Note 7, lovely phone, still have mine although it is now bricked after the ota kill update. For the short time I had it working, it was perfect.

If you could bring back one iconic phone from the past, which would it be? Mine is the Galaxy S9. Pure perfection and Edge display supremacy. 🔥

Why Samsung? 🤔 You paused the One UI 8 rollout for Galaxy S24, S23, and S22 series… then why rush it in the first place? 😒 Wouldn’t it be better to test properly before pushing it out? For those who already installed — are you actually satisfied with One UI 8? 👀 Drop your thoughts below 👇💬

@WorkaholicDavid I've lost the main use of the s-pen when they removed smart select and swapped it for that painfully slow ai select, so right now, there is no real point in getting any more s-pen phones..been on every pen phone since the Note 3, even the 7. 😁

@UniverseIce The only reason I have used Samsungs, since the Note 3, was for the s-pen functions, mainly smart select and now that it's been "upgraded" to that bloody awful, ridiculously slow "ai select" I may change soon..I'd be happy if they gave a choice, but no...

Open Letter to Samsung CEO TM Roh: Immediately Replace the Camera Division Head to Salvage Galaxy's Imaging Reputation Dear Mr. TM Roh, As long-time consumers of Samsung products, we must express our profound disappointment with the continuous deterioration of the camera experience in the Galaxy series. The current leadership of the camera division has severely failed in its duties. Without immediate action, Samsung's reputation in mobile imaging will be irreparably damaged. Below are eight compelling reasons why the head of the camera division must be replaced: 1. Deceptive Marketing and Exaggerated Claims Claims of "industry-leading camera performance" in promotional events, while actual results fall far short Significant discrepancies between sample images and real-world performance, bordering on false advertising 2. Technological Backwardness, Outpaced by Competitors Persistent image quality issues: excessive noise in shadows, crushed blacks in HDR, poor telephoto quality, subpar night photography, unnatural portrait details and bokeh Fundamental flaws: shutter lag (over 0.5 seconds), excessive video sharpening Left behind by competitors like iPhone, vivo, OPPO, Huawei, and Xiaomi 3. Neglecting User Feedback, Ignoring Longstanding Issues Years of user complaints (e.g., poor shadow detail, unnatural skin tones, shutter delay) remain unresolved Widespread criticism in official forums, social media, and professional reviews—yet Samsung turns a blind eye 4. Blindly Copying Apple, Losing Samsung's Identity From hardware tuning to software algorithms, mindlessly following Apple's "natural tone" approach, resulting in dull, lifeless photos Even replicating Apple's flaws (e.g., HDR black crush, excessive sharpening), completely abandoning Samsung's once-vibrant signature style 5. Discriminatory Skin Tone Processing Poor rendering of Asian and Caucasian skin tones, often appearing unnaturally "yellow-black" Mocked by users as the "Samsung Yellow Face Filter" Far inferior to Chinese brands (e.g., OPPO, vivo) in natural skin tone optimization 6. Complacency in Hardware, Refusing to Innovate Stubbornly using outdated sensors (e.g., HP2 and IMX754 for four consecutive years), refusing to upgrade to larger sensors Unwilling to learn from Chinese brands' advanced hardware and software technologies 7. Slow and Discriminatory Software Updates Camera algorithm updates are infrequent and sluggish in addressing issues Deliberately withholding improvements from older models (e.g., Galaxy S23 and S24 series still lack optimizations from the S25) 8. Technologically Conservative, Resisting AI Innovation Outdated noise reduction in primary and telephoto cameras, leading to smeary night shots Refusal to adopt AI computational photography (e.g., Google's HDR+, Huawei's XMAGE engine) Our Demands 1. Immediately remove the head of the camera division and recruit experts with genuine expertise in computational photography and user experience. 2. Significantly upgrade hardware: Adopt cutting-edge sensors, larger apertures, 200MP telephoto lenses, and variable aperture technology. 3. Completely overhaul software optimization: Accelerate update cycles, fix legacy issues, and ensure older models receive algorithm improvements. 4. Establish a rapid user feedback response system to prevent years of unresolved complaints. Samsung was once a leader in mobile imaging—now, due to the incompetence of its camera team, it has become a laughingstock. If decisive action is not taken now, Galaxy users will flock to competitors like iPhone, Huawei, and Xiaomi. Time is running out. Act now! — Frustrated Samsung Consumers

@murdieston @MattGubba Just wait, our bins are now 4 weekly here in Stirling and a few other councils are changing to that too. Fly tipping has increased because of it.

@MattGubba Mine’s about £30 less than yours and I live on a public lane: - with no lighting - that the council don’t maintain (I do at my expense to stop walkers and horses breaking their ankles in potholes) - fortnightly bin collections It’s absolutely unsustainable.

Council tax is daylight robbery. My latest bill… £4016.26 For that, I get a fortnightly bin collection. The level of taxation in the UK is completely unsustainable.

When I was a teenager my parents went away and I threw a house party. Clean up went great except for the smell of cigarette smoke. So I "accidentally" burnt toast as they arrived home, smoking out most of the house. Worked perfectly and I didn't get caught.
