Should make it Samsung software-proof while they are at it.
Can you elaborate?
They like to make decisions for you, like dedicating a button to their voice assistant that I have no interest in using and doing their best to prevent rooting of the device. Apparently some of their devices even have ads, though this might be more limited to their TVs (I'm on a former flagship which they might have left that stuff off of, so it might affect the lower end phones, too). Apps that I don't need that I can't remove (including the Facebook app on the last one I had).
You can configure the bixby button to do other things now, like activate camera or flashlight. The s23 series doesn't even have a dedicated bixby button. But I agree samsung phones are extremely bloated.
Hmm last time I tried, one of the button options had to be bixby. But that was a while ago, thanks for the info.
