The A73 doesn't have a headphone jack, so I doubt the A33 will.

Samsung is now Samsux
Feb 9, 2022, 5:19 PM
in the Samsung Galaxy S22 forum

Since Samsung has decided to get rid of SD memory card slots, I'm done buying Samsung. Samsung is just a clone of Apple. If you want a phone that has a non removable battery, no memory card slot, and is like an iPhone in almost every way regarding hardware, then get a Samsung. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Samsung sucks and their new name is Samsux.

in the Article: Apple to Scan iCloud Photos for Child Sexual Abuse Material forum

I'm not sure if it's only the cloud right now or not. But you can bet they'll figure out a way to scan your phone directly. And of course it's "for public safety." They say they are looking for child porn today, but next year they'll be looking for anti-vaxxer memes or racist pics or anti-climate change memes. Then they'll be scanning your text messages under the guise "to prevent spreading vaccine misinformation." There's ...

Re: S21 Has No Memory Card Expansion Slot?
Jan 14, 2021, 11:48 PM
in the Article: Samsung's Galaxy S21 Flagships are Prettier and More Affordable forum

Wow, I can't believe I got a reply from the founder of this site-very cool! Samsung saying SD usage is down doesn't mean they need to get rid of it all together. What does an SD slot cost Samsung to put in the phone? $10 maybe? I like having options and when you take away an SD slot, that's diminishing my options. And when Samsung or Google someday decides to charge you for that online ...

I would have to say yes they are. Screw them. They don't want to include a $10 memory card slot, then buy a brand that does.

S21 Has No Memory Card Expansion Slot?
Jan 14, 2021, 4:42 PM
in the Article: Samsung's Galaxy S21 Flagships are Prettier and More Affordable forum

That is really, really dumb. They are becoming more and more like an Apple clone (non-removable battery, no memory card slot). If this is the new trend from Samsung, then I'm done with them. I know I will NOT be buying the S21 because of no memory card slot. I'll find another brand that does still offer it. We'll see if the S22 continues this stupid trend.

Re: Is a folding screen necessary?
Oct 24, 2019, 1:09 PM
in the Samsung Galaxy Fold forum

It's so you have the best of both worlds. A regular phone for most of the time and a tablet like device for when you want a bigger screen for internet or gaming. That way you don't have to run around with a tablet all the time trying to talk on it. There were issues with this phone earlier in the year, but supposedly they have been fixed. I'm sure we'll be seeing more of ...

Really? You sure about that? They are finding back doors all the time in android and pc computers. You don't think a country like China couldn't hide files? The CIA had hidden spying files in computers being shipped overseas just a few years back. Don't be so sure about it.

HD Calling
May 5, 2017, 11:58 AM
in the Article: Cricket Wireless Debuts HD Voice for Select Phones forum

Sounds like something that's about 15 years too late. I mean really who makes phone calls anymore? Sure once in a while, but most people text or instant message. It's like rolling out cellular "home phones" to replace your wire line service. Everyone who's gotten rid of their home phone has done so years ago. HD calling's calling already came and went.

You can have it.......and keep it if the battery catches on fire again. I'd rather have it like the Galaxy S5 which is waterproof and you can remove the battery. I mean are you really going to go scuba diving with your phone? BTW, you can buy a $10 Red Pepper case on ebay for your phone if you want to take it scuba diving. As a matter of fact I do have an S5 and ...

Non-Removable Battery
Mar 29, 2017, 1:52 PM
in the Article: Galaxy S8 to Cost $750, S8+ to Cost $850: Carriers Share Launch Details forum

You would think with Samsung's gigantic, costly fiasco with their last phone and their non-removable battery they would make this new phone have a removable battery. Had their last phone had that ability, they could have just sent out replacement batteries for the bad ones instead of replacing the whole phone. I guess they didn't learn. You can't fix stupid.

in the Article: Nokia Pins Smartphone Comeback on HMD Global forum

Yeah, this is Nokia in name only. They should change their name to NINO instead of Nokia. It's not made by Nokia, only has their name on it. It's really too bad how two iconic brands back in the 90s are either gone or barely on life support. Nokia and Motorola were the brands everyone wanted. Then Nokia got lost along the way and became second rate once Android came about. Selling to ...

Exactly. Verizon is breaching their contract through a bait and switch scheme. Verizon was outright lying when they offered "unlimited" plans and now want to do away with it. They should be investigated by the FCC and even sued by those customers affected by Verizon's lying.

Why so many Americans are unemployed. This is a typical example of how both Democrats and Republicans sold this country to China. Look how Motorola is now owned by some Chinese company. The list is too large to write them all down. They sold our country to China.

There's an imaginary "war on women" being sold to us by the left. However, in places where there really is a war on women like the Middle East where women are kept as slaves, companies like Google have no problem with it. Makes one wonder what their real agenda is.

Yeah I remember about 2 or 3 years ago about some college student won a contest by designing some rapid charger that could charge your phone to like 90% within a half hour and how it was a "game changer" and she won some money and they were going to market it and that's the last we ever heard about it.

Another name for "leftist propaganda." It's well known that Zuckerberg is a leftist, socialist, billionaire, globalist. He's now developed a news feed for his sheep to not see anything that he doesn't want you to see. He envelopes it as a new algorithm that predicts what you want to read, but really it's what Facebook wants you to read-not you.

The government imports Jihad terrorists into the US, then punishes all Americans as a result of their behavior. Obama wants to let in hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees, many of which will be terrorists, and then when they go around shooting up the place, watch congress and president try to ban the 2nd Amendment more than ever. But hey, it's a small price to pay for political correctness. Our government is actually bringing in the ...

You have our government importing folks from regions that want to Jihad our butts. So you bring them in, then take away American's freedoms as a result of their bad behavior. Like here, we have to let the government look at our phones because we now have tons of Jihadists in this country that our government let move here.

I guess the Vikings original stadium was waaaay too old to fix up. It's better to just rip it down and rebuild another billion dollar stadium funded by the taxpayers. Does anyone know that the NFL is tax exempt? Here you have a billionaire NFL owner getting the taxpayers to pay for an unneeded stadium using the public's money. Then the same public that paid for that stadium get charged a rip off price for ...

That's proprietary CDMA for ya. The US had to be different and used some locked down, proprietary technology from Qualcomm while the rest of the world moved along with the open standard GSM. But we had to be different. After the US invaded Iraq, we tried to force our garbage CDMA on Iraq so they could be a little island from the rest of the world, just like us. That's called corruption as you know ...

Corporatism at its finest. People like Bernie Sanders go on about the evils of capitalism, but really it's corporatism that is the problem. Corporatism is the warped perversion of capitalism. Capitalism is all about competition, but corporatism is all about buying up your competition so there is none or only a small few left. Here Motorola was an iconic brand for over 75 years, but now some giant Chinese corporation bought them up and are ...

I'd prefer to ditch Facebook. It's ran by ultra leftist globalist Mark Zuckerberg and is used as a spying tool by the government. Everyone shares their most intimidate thoughts and details about their life on FB. Used to be if you wanted to find out about someone, you'd hire a private investigator. Now you just go to FB where your person of interest shares everything about their life including pictures. FB is a Trojan ...

"Time to move on" that's all you can say? Motorola invented the cell phone. It's a brand that's been around for over 50 years. Now it's time to move on from Motorola to great brand names like ZTE, Huawei, Alcatel, Lenevo and all the other "iconic" Chinese name brands. Yeah Conway, this is another example of greedy corporate pirates raiding a company to loot their goods, then sell off the remaining carcass. Google needed ...

Here is another example of the government meddling in something that is working and good in an effort to quash it. People are happy, so the government is mad. Some carriers are offering free data usage, so the government is actually trying to stop it. They are trying to stop it in the name of "free, open and innovative" internet. So they are actually wanting to stop a free service in the name of making ...

Of corporations encouraging illegal immigration. Give free roaming for illegals when they go back home for the weekend. Notice they don't have free roaming in Canada, mainly because we don't have a lot of Canadians flooding into the US. Corporations are guilty of encouraging illegal immigration.

Yup and an airplane doesn't fly either, it's "gravity resistant" based on your logic. And for the record, submarines have been to the bottom of the Mariana Trench all the way back in 1960. A submarine is considered waterproof, just like a boat. Is a boat "water resistant" too in your book? And why not make the gasket out of poop since you want to make it out of bacon? Hell make it out of ...

Do you know how much of an idiot you sound like? A submarine is indeed waterproof, not water "resistant". You try to sound like you're smart, but you sound like a moron instead. And who said anything about Samsung? I sure didn't. You drew that inference yourself, again showing what an idiot you are. All I was talking about was how Apple could spend $2 or less in gaskets to make their phone ...

It will take a few years....maybe 5 or even less, but Verizon is in their very beginnings of slipping away.

For "diversity." Keep letting into the US these radical Islamic Jihadist from the Middle East so our government has an excuse to spy on everyone. If it's not the "war on drugs" to justify the police driving around in massive armored cars and dressed up like paramilitary storm troopers, it's now the "war on terror" to justify the government spying on every phone call and email.
