I have been a samsung user since S2, S3, S4, note4. Note8 and now s22u. But ive been having a unit issue since Note8, just over the warranty, when they rolled a UI update, apps were not ready, phone overheated which eventually killed the unit. Now s22u, less than a year into it, ui4 rolled out, green screen happened. Yes still with warranty, but fixing it feels like receiving a refurbished phone. It doesnt give me the assurance as well that it wont happen again given that i got a subpar, defective unit. And for a flagship phone at this price point, that is not acceptable. Someone from samsung called me and they said, it wasnt from software. And di naman daw masabe, kasi not all experienced it,. And dahil daw electronic device, di nila maexpect when it would break down. And that should appease me? Na it isnt their fault and that i shouldve expected it kasi electronic device, may chance mag breakdown? For a flagship phone, top of the line, highest of their top unit. Okayyyy... to say that all my friends have been convincing me to switch to iphone na since the margin between their functionality has narrowed down.. i was never convinced, but after talking to that simon guy, it sealed the deal. This is my last Samsung unit phone. Yes they will fix my phone, but that is not even the point.

For me, samsung user since im using the Samsung Galaxy Blade (GT-S5600V), Galaxy tab 3..... I never broke my phone, I carefully take care of it until the end, and switch to another unit which needs to be atleast 1year. As of now, currently using the A51 still remain strong after 2yrs now, im about to switch a new unit which is Galaxy A73. Galaxy A73 will be my last Samsung unit.

Nope. Had i not asserted myself, i wouldnt have achieved what i was pushing for, which i did btw yesterday. It was a hassle, a bit stresful, yes. But i wouldnt settle for anything less than what i deserve. I paid for the product, expecting it to be in excellent condition. Yes, defects on any other brands are inevitable but i expect post sales to handle the defect or their product failure well, and that's what i intend to get and i got it, because it shouldnt be my loss and i dont intend to shoulder it for them.

Update: i got the result i was pushing for

Take away from this experience, don't settle. If you are on the right, assert yourself. Of course, dont abuse, wag manglamang. If it was from a drop or your own negligence, own up to it. But if you feel that you did not get what you paid for, demand. Customer service and consumer protection here is horrible because we are settling, and we are allowing such bad response from them..had this happen in another country, response/action wouldve been different right from the on set. We paid for the same exact equivalent amount as what others are paying for the same product. So we must get the same quality and after sales service from them.

And this is applicable in all aspect, di lang sa products, but sa service we are getting from public servants, etc.. had i settled for, "eh ganon talaga ang electronic device excuse", i wont get the right action from them.. theyd just perform a quick fix and sorry nalang a few months later when tapos na warranty ko and i have to pay na when this happens again.

These companies would always go for cheapest route, hence the fix instead of the replacement. I also understand that some consumers are carpetbaggers/opportunists, and so these businesses are not quick to believe when we are pushing for our case. But still, i think there should be a fine balance between the two because the price we pay for their product is no joke. 20221218_160935_1000000153_1671351018.jpg

Same. I had this phone (Samsung S20plus) for 2 years and it's a pretty decent phone for me. Kahit na nagkaroon ng pink line issue due to software upgrade, I didn't mind taking it to the Service Center kasi hindi naman ganun ka-bothersome for me. Pero yesterday I had enough kasi after updating to the latest android software dun na lumabas yung green line issue na super eye sore talaga.
I don't want to waste my time and effort of bringing this to their Service Center kasi I know for a fact na pababayarin lang din ako ng 17k for LCD replacement.
