Hmm, it is interesting, I just don't think Samsung is this great company people claim.
The quality of their products is very average. Speak to most sales assistance at electronic or home appliance stores and they say "style over substance". Samsung sell their products heavily on advertising. They have and maybe still are playing some very dirty game sin the tech industry, hiring students in south east asia and North American now to brand bash Samsung rivals in their smartphone department. We had some South Korean students at my college at one point, and we got talking about Samsung and how the company is perceived in SK. Now I thought Koreans would be very proud of Samsung because of what this video explains, how bgi and powerful they are, what a good advert for south Korea and so on, but a lot of them actually resent Samsung. They say because they are so big and powerful, they push out smaller independent companies out of the market, they don't get a chance. However this is just my opinion. There are people who are very happy with their Samsung products. | ||

Samsung washing machines
You guys are probably not aware of this but Samsung have been subject to one of the biggest product recalls here in Australia, due to some faults in some of their top load washers.
This recall has been going on for more than a year I was reading only earlier today and it is because these certain models with these faults were actually exploding and causing many home fires. Even ones which had been serviced and repaired were still exploding into flames, so I would be very wary of ever buying their washers,and a year or two ago there were many problems being reported with some of their side-by-side fridges as well.

Liamy1: I had a Galaxy Ace, but my sister has had most of the new galaxy S (insert numeral) phones and she's had nothing but trouble off them, my dads had issues with his Galaxy Fit as well. | ||

I used to have the original Galaxy about 5 or 6 years ago now and it was a horrible, horrible phone. Plasticy, lagged all the time but that is largely to do with android (I have been suing windows phone for about 4 years now which I love)
Samsung's stupid advertising campaigns, there ridiculous names for their "technologies" which seem to be in one model one year and out the next, versus say Bosch or Electrolux (in washing machines anyway) who stick to more traditional technologies that actually work, and the ones they do come up with, like air condensation technology for Bosch washer driers actually work ! I prefer LG when it comes to South Korean companies and their products. I found their stuff to be slightly better made and work just a little bit better, but my £1800 LED tv in the living room which is 2 years old now has one nearly blown speaker, and the smaller 32 inch one in my room is doing the same. | ||
