I’m writing a review on Samsung 77-inch S90D OLED TV. I bought a TV 6 to 8 months ago, hung on the wall worked fine. I cleaned the screen like I always do, turned it on black screen, not sure what happened but all I did is wait the screen down and I’ve done it many times before, but Samsung won’t warranty. They said it’s been impacted and damaged and there’s no physical damage or it’s never been impacted. I’m really disappointed with Samsung. I will never buy a TV from them again, horrible customer service.

Flip phones (Flip 4 and now Flip 6) crack at the point of folding. Customer Service is awful with escalations and requests for management calls have no impact. My phone still under warranty have been is their possession for almost 30 days. Customer Support cannot give me any updates and they will not return the phone (fixed or not). I requested the phone to be returned on 11/24. Today is 12/3 and they cannot tell me where it is.

Samsung mobile phones are the worst and the Google software is very poor. It is ridiculous that one has to have a Gmail email address to do anything. Apple has a back button, but Samsung requires you to swipe (stupid), and to answer a phone you also have to swipe. I could write a book with everything wrong with Samsung .mobile phones. If you are considering of purchasing a Samsung mobile phone, DON'T, if you do, you will REGRET purchasing a Samsung mobile phone. I highly recommend do NOT purchase a Samsung mobile phone-.

Absolute garbage. Hands down, the worst phone I've ever used. So busy focusing on trying to act like an Apple product that they've lost the plot for user experience. I'll be going back to Nokia. Had a Nokia phone for five years and never had the issues that sprung up within a week of using a Samsung.

Loyal Samsung owner. Purchased an S25 Edge directly from Samsung. USB-C didn't recognize charger. Was going to exchange but started working. 3 months later stopped working. Repair center can't get the parts. Samsung won't send them the part. Called 4 times. Battery performance worse using wirless charging now. As a business owner, am forced to send it in and be without my phone for AT LEAST 5-7 days. Unacceptable. Last Samsung I'm purchasing.

I bought the Galaxy A15 serial # R5CX3479KCH on 03/06/22 from Tello Mobile, order #**. I registered the phone on the Samsung account. It went out of service in mid May with a "no sim card" error message. Thinking that the sim card had fallen into the phone, I ordered a new sim card on 05/21/25, received and installed it on 05/28/25. The phone still had no service with the same error message, but is under warranty. Per Samsung procedures, I first took it to "ubreakifix" who examined the phone and verbally reported that the problem was the card reader, and it was irreparable. Per Samsung procedures, I returned the A15 on 05/30/25 with this background information and told them I was requesting a refund because it is under warranty, and I did not need the phone repaired or returned as I had purchased a new Galaxy A16. I asked them to honor their warranty on the A15.
When I phoned to follow up the first time, I was told that they didn't have any work order or the A15 phone and I should send it. Second follow up, they told me to send back the A15. Third follow up, they had found the work ticket dated 5/30 but it was for the A16 because they had taken it upon themselves to cancel the ticket for the A15 and changed it to apply to the A16. And I should send in the phone. (A15 with no ticket? A16 with no problems?) At that point, I filed a Complaint to the Better Business Bureau. The next day I received a call from the President's staff saying that the phone would soon be repaired and returned.
I responded that I need a refund because of the warranty, and sent copies of the purchase receipt for each phone. Their final reply emailed July 2nd: "I know you wanted a refund but upon review, your Samsung device has been repaired and it will be delivered to you on 07/03/2025 by 5:00 pm as per UPS **. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Their final stand is that I was supposed to wait for 32 days with no a phone because of their incompetence. I must swallow the cost of both phones so that would not have to spend a penny.

I WILL NEVER TRUST SAMSUNG EVER AGAIN! Your company made and sold me a product that out of the blue died from a fried motherboard. I was sent by your people to a certified Samsung technician who discovered the issue and after circling back to Samsung I am being bullied by your company to pay hundreds of dollars left to pay off the phone, a balance which should be canceled because I shouldn't be liable to pay for a phone that was made to fail before I even signed a contract which promised me an above average made phone which I'm realizing has an extensive amount of complaints, specifically S22's and S23's, both of which in recorded convo with an AT&T rep was revealed to me to be well known to have Firmware problems among other issues including Fried Motherboards.
Those phones should be taken off the market. I am soon to lose my AT&T service due to the balance owed for the S23 which i can't pay and if I could, again, I shouldn't be liable for a phone sold to me under false pretense that nothing was wrong with it when clearly that phone had major faults from its birth. I can't even return the phone because I need to recover important information from it which a company claims they can do within a few days to few weeks depending on price plan.

I've been a loyal Samsung customer for years, consistently investing in their flagship devices. That loyalty ended with the Z Flip 6. Without warning, and absent any drop, water damage, or software update, my touchscreen became completely unresponsive—working one moment, completely dead the next. I treated the phone meticulously, and it was still well within the one-year warranty. When I brought it to a Samsung service center, I was stunned at the response: they claimed a minor cosmetic scratch—on the exterior and not on the screen—was enough to void the warranty entirely. Not damage, not abuse. A scratch.
It gets worse. A quick search reveals this isn’t an isolated incident—the Z Flip 6 seems to have a disturbingly common track record of spontaneous touchscreen failures. Yet Samsung’s response is to comb devices for superficial imperfections in order to deny coverage that should be honored by any reputable company. And if Samsung is correct and whatever caused this minor cosmetic blemish is enough to render the device inoperable, then this is clearly a product of poor durability and even poorer accountability. This isn’t just a product flaw—it’s a customer service failure, and a betrayal of trust. I’ve spent years recommending Samsung to friends and family. Never again.

I was excited to get my new Samsung A16 a few months ago. That lasted for about 2 weeks until all hell broke lose. Can't stop auto correct from capitalizing and making text nonsense as if not knowing English. Extreme lag on Google Maps that it sent me to different places a few times. I can't see any pictures sent through text or even through email on the phone. (Can't see pics sent from customers or my son's vacation in Asia.) Constantly removing itself from Bluetooth and going into plane-mode on its own. Will stop charging at 50% even when on charger all night. Happens 2-3 times a week. If I have it in my pocket upside down, the headphones get static or audio cuts out. That's just what I can think of off of the top of my head. It's an Android and seems that they are falling way behind iPhone if the new ones work like mines.

Ok, so. I'm prefacing this by saying my Samsung phone itself isn't the issue. My issue is with the spam notifications that you cannot stop about apps that nobody cares about. If someone wanted these apps, everybody is grown enough to search or an app with the functionality they desire. I know I'm not the only one that is disk and tired of the nonsense, given the Galaxy app has a 1 star rating, mainly revolving around this very issue.

I purchased A 15 6 mos ago from metro PCs. The phone constantly drops calls. It is under warranty, I've been to metro many times and called their customer service and they determined the phone was bad. I was told to call to get a replacement but they passed the buck back to metro. Both companies refused to replace the phone so I'm left with a phone that if an emergency arised it would more than likely drop the call. So the 1yr warranty is not true. It's just a selling point, I wouldn't recommend Samsung to anyone.

They lost me after many years as customer as well as other people from my family and some friends because they returned my phone which was unlocked and factory reseted and ready to be reused, and it was in like new condition, always kept in case and with screen protector. I did the same thing many times before for years and I did exactly the same thing this time with my S24 ultra. Until now my every trade in was fine with no problems. I should of take video when I reseted the phone and packed it, but I did not as I trusted Samsung as always before. Not any more.
I received my phone back with welcome screen, ready to be used, and Samsung said that it wasn't unlocked and I did not reset it. I got charged back almost $1000 bucks for upgrade that does not worth half of that money which without trade in deal I would not upgrade my like new phone for processor only upgrade. Lesson learned and no more yearly upgrade for me and Samsung phones anymore. Very disappointed as customer that spent thousands of dollars every year. Unfortunately there is no legal way to make this right or complain except turn your back, spread the story to friends as they will be the next and try to feel better which hurts every time when you think about it as loyal customer who got scammed from the company he was bragging about for so many years.

With a Heavy accent barely can understand, besides they don't even want to be bothered!! 3 yes 3 different Samsung representative tried to sell me a phone case and swore to me that the stylist came with it that was Not true three times three different people.... Are they even trained??
Samsung is so Horrible, I'm going to have just buy a cheap phone until I'm done paying this garbage off, you would they would be happy to have almost a brand new phone back and I would purchase another phone but nope they do not want that. I must stick with this garbage phone until I'm done paying it off.... This buying directly from Samsung, was unhappy experience.

For approx. 2 weeks now I have been trying to get help with 2 issues on the s25 plus. I have their online chat reps are script bots who answer nothing but will sit silent 80% of the time and just repeat the same scripts. The phone support was no better (but at least tried to answer). I can according to the phone support I can take the phone to a service repair place. The issue is a normal setting (doesn't exist where they claim). To name 2, issue 1- when starting, restarting or turning off the phone there is a carrier tone, not had this since the s9 phone. I can not find any setting anywhere or online (manual etc..) to turn this off, seems a simple matter to me
2- after getting the Feb. 2025 update (first update for the phone) last month a issue resulted immediately after (hint it did not at any time prior happen and did not happen on any previous phone ever). Got the update, installs etc... Get the restart prompt (restart) and the issue is there and constantly there (just a coincidence I guess). There was however in the notification for the update (Android and Samsung update) small mention of updating apps which I don't think I have noticed before. Did not say anything else and I did not see any way to opt out or do anything beyond seeing the words.
Anyway upon that restart (after being prompted by the update) I now get a notification sound and a icon in the top left of 4 dots, 2 at top, 2 at bottom (think square) swiping down on this (again never had this ever prior) has a message telling me I need to update my apps and lists each app and gives the total size of the apps to update, on the bottom of this notice it has 2 options left says wait for wifi connection on right says use data (that's to update the apps). there is no way I can find to stop this notification, as a result this now happens daily sometimes more than once (depending on how often I might turn or restart the phone)
Let's review never once on any previous phone, get new phone wasn't there prior to update and now appears I have in the galaxy store set to not auto update the apps, and I will point out it's not a galaxy store notification doing this since the update. The apps that are being mandated for update is a global fund app. None of the apps being mandated are anything beyond optional, none of these have any real purpose or function in regards to the security or function of the phone at all. Why are they forcing optional updates? Do we not have choice anymore? As for taking it to a service repair place? as suggested on the phone what would they do beyond the obvious "update the apps" and give me a stare wondering why I'm wasting their time

Samsung phone might be good but they are worst and I must say they have fraud warranty. They will never accept that their phone may have issue. Once you sent to them for warranty they simply put it under damage of any kind and will ask you to pay for fix if you want to fix. My Fold 6 bought under contract ATT (2000$) just after 3 months big screen blackout all of a sudden no physical or liquid damage. On phone they were so nice and sent label to sent for warranty. Once they received they put all on me that is damaged ask for 464$ to fix although my phone was always in case spotless/scratchless as well. I used only for Netflix and YouTube as it wasn’t my primary phone. I will never recommend buy that expensive phone specially from Samsung.

Samsung scammed me out of my $400 trade-in credit by swapping my perfectly working Flip 5 with a broken Fold 4 that didn't meet trade-in requirements. When I called and escalated this situation with their customer service, they didn't believe me and said that they had video and pictures of their trade-in department taking a Fold 4 out of my packaging. Obviously, they have a rat working there that is probably enjoying my Flip 5 now while I have to pay the $400 that was supposed to be a credit. What a nice scam they've got going there... Seriously though, stay away from Samsung if you like your money.

I ordered a phone July 2nd with a delivery date of July 8th and an early delivery July 5th. I called immediately after my order and asked for the expedited shipping.

I get an email that morning from customer service. I tell her shipping went in the wrong direction. I get my phone and Samsung offers me $40 to keep it.
In the meantime offers when the phone purchased were not working (sirius xm free 4 months, youtube free 3 months etc). I was offered $43 not sure why $43. They only process the $43. I call back and was offered $50 instead of $40 for my troubles to not return the phone. $50 was never processed. These are Samsung's offers/lies for separate problems. They make it very hard for a return and lie to you so eventually the return window will close. Terrible customer service and business practices. I have asked for a supervisor and a return due to their lies and never got either one. This was a simple fix gone wrong. Issue a refund when you offer it.

I owned a Samsung cellphone for over 15+ years. I can't remember when, or if, I'd any other brand. I've purchased both locked & unlocked phones so I know how both work & activated my own once I learned how. It's very simple, actually. I recently bought a S24+ directly from Samsung. I thought doing so would avoid the problems I'd read about other people having. I chose the unlocked phone in case I ever decide to switch carriers, though I don't see that happening. I read everything on both that and the one locked with my carrier, and there was no difference. I work hard for my money like we all do, and so of course I'm going to cross my T's and dot my I's. After I got the phone and went to set it up, it said to choose my carrier, but the only one listed was T-Mobile, which isn't. It said if my carrier wasn't there, I'd have to contact my carrier and have them activate it. If you've been around phones any you know that means it's a locked phone.
I called customer service and the person I spoke with wasn't anywhere close to being helpful or cared if she was or wasn't. She said in a manner that was more like an order that "you HAVE to contact your carrier." I explained my experience and background, thinking maybe I hadn't been clear, but she wouldn't listen and said again I'd to contact my carrier. She started asking about my transferring my data to it, and I told her I hadn't yet because if there were an issue, I didn't want any problems returning it, and she didn't like that. She was ignorant and I ended up hanging up because I wasn't going to sit there and listen to someone talking to me like that.
When I went through the steps to return it, the person offered $45 credit for my next purchase. No, thank you. I want to return it. How about $45 credit and I keep the phone? No, thank you. I want to return it. How about $45 refund? No, thank you. I want to return it. How about if I give you the refund and you keep the phone? No, thank you. I want to return it. Well how about if I give you the refund and you keep the phone? Would that work for you? I'm not kidding. That's how it went. I ended hanging up because she wouldn't complete the return, but I got it via email minutes after I hung up. First thing I did after leaving work less than a hour later was to drop it off at FedEx. I will never deal with Samsung again. Not when they play games like this.

I want to start with stating that I work industrial mechanical and technical repair. I fix and program robots for a multi billion dollar international company. I am tech savvy. I recently swapped from an iPhone 12 to a S24 Ultra. It was cheaper than the Apple flagship and a few friends had been talking up their androids. Being underwhelmed and shocked is putting it mildly. I can record video in 8k! But can't really do anything with it. Video/photo messages are limited to about 1mb file size. Picture and video are downgraded and compressed to the point of looking like stuff my flip phone of 2000 would do.
Alarms decide to not go off, instead you later get a message that you missed the alarm. If the phone is in use/on, text notifications amount to a tiny icon on top. That's it. In a tray that always has icons. Waiting for hours for a reply that came in 5 minutes later means I now check my notifications often just in case. App use is very free and open! To the point that lots of things don't work together. Or at all. To get some apps to function semi-reliably, you have to jump through many setting hoops. And it's still not a absolute it will work. Outside of themes and the massive 200mp camera, I feel this phone is a massive step backward from Apple. Even the camera/picture quality is only mildly better at 4x the resolution.

What is going on with Samsung? This used to be the company I trusted explicitly... Now I am reluctantly starting to realize they are on the express route (cliff version) of destroying their company image of quality products and reputation. In 2022, I moved from an 9S (which I loved. And all the other Samsung phones I had before.) to a 22 cell phone. I was excited about the upgrade, as most are when upgrading their phone. There was nothing wrong with my 9S. I looked forward to new features on the 22. From that standpoint, it was an anti-climatic switch. I found no real improvement in my overall user experience.
A little less than a year after having the phone, I started having an issue with the speaker. It would inadvertently become staticy rendering anything I was listening to incomprehensible. I thought that somehow, non-event driven, I damaged the speaker. Then without any intervention, the static cleared on its own? I thought, 'Ok maybe the issue was a one off? No need for me to reach out to Samsung.' Randomly and without any cause, the issue would continue to show up here and there - then clearing up on its own. I started to think it was an update that started the issue, so I waited for the next update. Finally that update came through and I thought it would resolve the issue. But once again, a couple of weeks later while listening to an audiobook, the issue popped up again.
At that point, I called TMobile to see what was going on. They referred me to Samsung. Samsung then let me know the product was out of warranty but still referred me to a local repair shop. I was frustrated but I thought they were standing by their product with the referral and the ticket number they gave me. Nope. I called the repair shop to set an appointment per Samsung's instructions. Without even seeing or testing the phone the shop told me to replace the speaker was going to be $*** and I would have to pay? I reached back to Samsung questioning the quality of the repair shop because of them pricing the repair without even seeing the phone or performing any diagnostics. Samsung affirmed that if the phone needed a repair that I would be responsible to pay. I was shocked.
While this dialogue was going on, I went out to the internet to research if I was the only one experiencing this problem. It turns out I'm not alone....and from everything I was reading, including from reputable tech websites, Samsung did the release of the 22 knowing there were a number of bugs including the speaker and rather than resolving, Samsung passed the 22 product line issues on to their unknowing loyal customers. I responded to the rep 'that they expected me to pay to repair a known defect in their product?' Samsung rep response...Click.
Shame on Samsung. Buyers beware - consider other brands. Yes this is the second review I have done on Samsung. It's not a smear campaign. It's honest reviews from a loyal Samsung customer who has bought multiple substantial $ products from this company because of trust in the brand. I'm heartbroken to have to move on due to the multiple 'recent' disappointments I've experienced. Seemingly out of Samsung greed.

Since my initial purchase of a Samsung phone, the Note 2, I have developed an unwavering appreciation for these devices. My journey with Samsung has been nothing short of extraordinary, as I seamlessly transitioned from the Note 4 to the Note 5, and finally reached the pinnacle with the Note 20. And now, as the proud owner of the S22, I can confidently say that Samsung continues to exceed my expectations.
The craftsmanship and design of Samsung phones are simply unparalleled. When compared to their counterparts, especially the iPhone, Samsung phones effortlessly rise above the competition. While my family members remain loyal to their iPhones, I was the trailblazer who dared to make the switch, and I have never once regretted my decision. The primary reason for this bold move is the undeniable longevity and exceptional quality that Samsung devices consistently offer.
I firmly stand by my belief that nothing currently on the market can even come close to rivaling what Samsung creates. Their commitment to quality and their unwavering dedication to customers like myself, who truly appreciate it, is truly commendable. This message serves as a small token of my immense gratitude to Samsung for continuously setting the bar high and delivering unparalleled excellence.

On 5/31/2023, I visited the T-Mobile store #7805, located on Rosecrans and Ocean in the city of Hawthorne, Ca 90250. My GalaxyZ Flip4 phone was malfunctioning. The screen had started to blacken out, the phone was unusable. I spoke with a representative and explained the situation. He (Chris), conferred with his proctor who stated that the phone was under warranty, and would be replaced. I was told the phone would be back in a few days, I was told to hold on the malfunctioning phone until the new one comes in. T-Mobile contacted us on 5/7/2023 to say the new phone had arrived.
Upon arrival to the store (7805), I was greeted by rep Arturo, who preceded to deliver the new ph to me and retrieve the old one. He said his supervisor would need to re-examine old phone before giving me the new phone. At that time Supervisors Memo/Henry, stated that it appeared that physical damage was done to the phone because the screen protector was starting lift, and therefore said they would not give me the new phone. There was no physical damage done to the phone. The phone was progressively getting worse with a blackened screen, flashes of light, heating up, as well as unusable while waiting for the new phone to come in. I explained that the cover screen had lifted over the past 7 days as a result of the phone heating up on two occasions while still in my possession, and I was unable to turn it off.
I was referred to Best Buy by Samsung, to have a Samsung expert look at it, he agreed that the phone did not show any signs of physical damage and stated, “they should have given you your new ph”. He said he had seen the same problem before stating, this is a defect in the z4 flip phone ”. The T-Mobile supv. Memo, still refused to release the new phone. I feel this was unjustified and a breach of agreement. I decided to research the issue with mobile and store #7805, and sure enough another customer went through the same horrible experience 1 month ago and 7months ago. T-Mobile corporate stated dissatisfaction with rep's behavior, at that time, but here it is happening again with my situation.
Please help if you can. I was disrespected, disappointed, put at risk for injury (with phone heating up), and have now been w/o a phone for almost 2weeks. I am also unable to check my messages in my computer, can neither make or receive phone calls, I am a senior, live alone, and a first responder. This is how a customer of over 20+yrs gets treated by T-Mobile. This needs to stop immediately. Thanks.
