Samsung may crack down on dangerous fake replacement parts, with a new authentication chip reportedly coming to its batteries to ensure they're genuine and safe

"Dangerous" "Fake" i.e. less expensive aftermarket.

The fuck is this puff peice garbage? You're just as (if not more) likely to get burned by a genuine Samsung battery. Hell, the entire Note 7 line was banned from being taken on airplanes.

Suck my balls, Samsung, and take that bullshit anti repair stance to hell

"Safety issue" kek

while ignoring samsungs own dangerous OEm parts, no doubt.

I honestly am wondering about like who believes all the BS claims from all the different companies.. Not even just this case, which is so so so clearly just BS excuse so people can't fix/get their phones fixed and need to just buy a new one. But recently here a grocery store escorted out a young mother who brestfed her newborn at the kiddie toy section, and then the store manager said that they're gonna make a dedicated breastfeeding area in their store, with even a single chair and so on.. Like who the fuck believes these? Why is it so ok to spew out whatever lies, and then it's all just okay and people move on? No follow-ups, nothing?

Dangerous?

Dangerous to Samsung's profit margins, maybe.

That's fine.

I stopped buying Samsung after the S4... Yea, that long ago... Because you picks locked down the boot loader.

FU Samsung.
