I'm sharing my disappointment with the recent Galaxy S25 series launch, especially the S25 ultra. I had high hopes for this release, and I'll be discussing certain features on recent devices.
Things which I am extremely dissatisfied with your year-on-year launch
1. Every year flagship phone like s and note starting from 2019 onwards, first we lost iris scanner on s10 and note 10 devices along with removal of SD card slot in note 10 base model and headphone jacks in both note 10 and note 10 plus devices.

2. In note 10 series we lost hr monitor on the back of the phone no don't tell me it was the gimmick if it was gimmick then why the h you introduce in s5 which was launched way back in 2014 / 15 ( sorry if I got the date and year wrong) why continued that feature for nearly 5 years and then removed it in note 10 devices

3. Iris scanner why introduce iris scanner in note 7, s8 note 8 and s9 and note 9 devices when you all planned it to discontinue in the 2019 devices

4. Removal of SD card slot in s6 which was failed attempt then release in s7 and continued till 2020 flagship models like s20 and note 20

5. Removal of MST was also not justified at all though in today's standard we don't need it anymore but is good to have that feature when NFC based payment system failed

6. Removal of air actions why introduce it was back in note 9 devices and continued till s24 ultra if your plan was to discontinue it then why even bother to introduce that Bluetooth spen in the first place

7. Removal of hp jack was inevitable but why mock apple to not having hp jack and same goes with charger in the box

8. Now with s25 ultra you also took away the iconic boxy design as well

9. Curved screen when you knew that curved was fragile then why you Samsung people went for it

10. Then you removed the note devices and merged with s series, and now you are at the verge of removing the spen

11. Then you removed the DEX function for windows and macOS

Guys let me know what all fan favorite features I am missing add it in the comment section I will edit the post as well.

But Samsung I want to tell you something that if you are not sure about the permanent or retaining features then never introduce them in the first

Why downgrade flagship device year-on-year

I am sorry to say that being a Samsung user for a long time, I am extremely disappointed with the current state of Removal of fan favorite features.

Let me tell you Samsung if you never were so sure about the features never introduce them in the first place

Removing the spen Bluetooth function did hit hard in my heart after the Removal of iris scanner and heart rate

I won't be surprised if you will remove the spen as well

Tell me Samsung how it is justified to us consumers who are paying a hefty amount for the flagship device, yet we are getting less and less feature year-on-year launches of device how should I as consumer justified to pay over, 150000

Only to get less and less features every year


Guys, please copy and paste this post and add what ever you feel about this Removal of features

And let me know about what you say about current Removal of features

I don't know about old features, but their new S25 Ultra is a mess! 😡 They removed the unique boxy design and made it like a regular phone with a downgraded S Pen! No more gesture control because they removed BT! What a shame. 😔 #Samsung #S25Ultra #Phone #Disappointment #Technology

I am totally agree with U for almost every point you mentioned..From few year we were seeing the most innovative Company is no more innovative at all.. Just degrading/Removing Hardware & Features..The Company which was trend setting in the mobile segment is somewhat Copying trends from others (name everybody knows)..And inspite of Iris gone, 3.5mm jack gone, HR sensor gone, SD card slot gone, Charger gone, Spen nibs gone, Back Cover gone etc etc Price on Sky high🤬🤬 Yes I like the Software update policy but with every major update we are always in fear of Feature Removal to make older good series equivalent to he*ll newer ones🤔🤔 Now I have to take care while updating my S22U because who knows they may remove Bluetooth functionality from Spen here too to improve Battery life 🤣🤣 who knows 😜😜

Now I feel 🤔🤔Samu is going same way like Nokia gone.. Blackberry gone.. Microsoft Phones gone.. After becoming a brand Companies feel that they'll make users dependency as per their choice and not by the choice of Users 🤬🤬 And then the Backward journey starts🤣🤣
