Why is it that when using the local Samsung widget for weather, there's now ad strips? This isn't an app I downloaded... this is the pre-installed Samsung weather widget that I've always used, and its never had ads till now. This is making Samsung look worse than phones that pre-bake their software chalf full of ads. Not to mention this isn't the first complaint you guys receive either - ads are now popping up for new Samsung devices when they're announced. And "places" when looking to dial a call has ads too?? This is a 2000$ flagship phone, you'd think that the software would be ad free for that price tag [or any other for that matter. It was never advertised it came with ads built in... trying to follow suit with xiaomi or what] Genuinely rethinking which brand i want as my next phone. This isn't a free service.. like yt that needs ad sense. This is a product customers paid for, and if that revenue isn't enough, then there needs to be a bit of an overhaul on how things are done because adding ads in to core stock programs and features which cannot be disabled, is alarming.

and lol I meant no offense by that, tech ages fast, its part of the industry. I myself used an S8 up until getting the s20plus. Older device doesn't means worse
