Would’ve been nice if they told us the location, still.
I want to laugh but a licensed Samsung repair shop couldn’t repair my phone because I lost the stylus and Samsung licensing requires 100% pass of a test that includes the stylus before returning phones to customer.
Borrowed one from the Verizon shop down the street - gave them my driver license as collateral. Worked out but I was less than pleased with Samsung. They can still have my babies tho.
I went to a Samsung certified repair shop to get my screen replaced and they said they couldn’t do it cuz they couldn’t repair my color of phone. Idk what they have against white phones, but I ended up having to mail it to Samsung to get it repaired.
Another Samsung Store couldn’t fix my screen without wiping my data (because procedures) and of course they had to do a full replacement of both the glass and the actual screen.
A Ukrainian guy came to the rescue and replaced just the glass (screen was working just fine), thus at half the price, and most importantly, kept my data intact. As it should’ve been at the official store.
I will never bite the Apple
Apple was shit during the Steve Jobs iphone years, too. Just ask Louis Rossman (used to do mac repair videos on YT, nowadays mostly talks about current computer stuff)
Oh, and the iphone 4 had a “feature” where holding the phone “wrong” made it lose all signal.
Casey Neistat got his big break in 2003 with “iPod’s Dirty Secret” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuTcavAzopg
Just as relevant today as it was 20 years ago.

complains about unreasonable repair costs
You sleep in the bed you make.
We are forced to participate in the society we live in. It is not the consumer’s fault that a company is shitty.
Smart phones are almost essential in this day and age, most people get an apple product because it’s what other people have, they shouldn’t be punished for just wanting to have a smartphone was my point. It’s not their fault apple is like this.
