"Components pushing into display panel" was the answer for white blobs on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite LTE. Yes, old POS with disaster engineering, had the screen replaced in warranty and white blobs were there again soon.

It's a fail. Big time fail.

We need a reasonable Android phone with clear Android OS and Google is very good at this. Well... was. Please don't mess this thing up, just two big companies having 98% of the market is extremely expensive for users.

They need to bring back GPE/Nexus/Android One

Ya'll acting like Nexus wasnt a fuckin trash heap. Fun fact i probably have the only Nexus 5x that still works - because its using cfw that lets it boot without its main cores - because they all overheated and desoldered themselves from the phone.

The Nexus Tablet swore me off android tablets. Went loco in the head and got a Note 4, then watched them cut support off less then a year later after purchase. Went Apple and never looked back.

It's a shame as the "open" design to Android is nicer then apple, but lack of updates, buggy code and more drove me up the wall.

Friend had a Samsung S22 I had to support, and ugh... I hated that phone. Wanted her to get a Apple and make it easier on her, but too late in the game for her to change ecosystems.

If I had any lingering doubt on being in the Apple ecosystem, that S22 finished it off with it's printer bs and more

What was wrong with the S22? Genuine question, since I couldn't afford one and didn't know anyone who owned it.

I'm European, so our S22 was shit because of the Exynos processor, which meant worse performance and less battery than Chinese gaming phones which cost half the price.

I have an S23 now and it's easily the best phone I ever owned, smooth AF software experience with plenty of features for my power user self.
