I like in South Korea. Pretty much anywhere you go there’s going to be a Samsung center. Tolerable(albeit not ideal) price, at least compared to Apple, fast(got my mobo fixed in <1h), super nice people.
I know they’re far from perfect and I’d use Pixels in a heartbeat once Google decides to sell them in South Korea but Samsung in South Korea at least, pretty impressive. If only they weren’t fucking us with higher prices and shitty Exynos chips…

So, I’ve got Samsung appliances that I deeply hate. I didn’t purchase them on purpose, they were in the house when we bought it.
If there is a power outage or brown out the control hangs on the fridge and it stops cooling. It has to be reset. To reset, you have to press two touch screen buttons. You have to hit it just right, the press has to be closely synchronized and then hold for 10sec, my girl is unable to get it.
The Samsung oven is currently sitting in the yard in a junk pile to be disposed of. Replaced that hunk of shit with a 1970s GE mechanically controlled stove. Had to replace the indicator lights and the timer unit due to age. Cooks better than the Samsung ever did.
House also came with a Samsung washer and dryer, I’m just waiting for them to do some stupid shit.
I did buy a Samsung TV, it’s decent but I am fighting a low-level enshittification war on all the ads and shit it keeps installing. It has particular features that means I don’t completely lobotomize it and keep some of the smart TV stuff.
I guess what I’m saying is that Samsung can suck my fucking balls.
