It's been 5 months I switched to Samsung from Iphone here are things I think Samsung Is missing.

1- Samsung Pay (it works as TAP TO PAY but still it's very laggy, very low online support, for people living in UAE i have to use Noon or Careem at least 5 times a day and guess what each time I have to pull out my card to make a payment which was way easier for me to pay with apple pay since it have wide acceptance)
2- Point to shoot needs work it's not as good as Iphone
3- If you post stories on insta and snap your videos lose pixels and you need to record them with camera app and post them later.
4- Rest it's been amazing with Samsung s25 Ultra

Good comments.

1) Have you set shortcut for Samsung Pay ? I find it very fast as I can just swipe up from blank screen and launch payment.

2) Yes, here Samsung need to improve as we have to point back of phone with card reader. But may be Samsung is not doing this due to Security issue ? I am not sure.

3) This is also valid issue as these social media apps are designed for iphones as priority, it's sad that majority users of Android (not only Samsung) are ignored. Google, Samsung, other Android based phone manufacturers should resolve this.

The shortcut for samsung pay is set. I'm not talking about NFC Tap and Go payment.
I'm Talking about paying via Samsung pay to website such as Amazon,Noon,Uber,Careem which such website don't support.

Ok, I understand your issue now.
Only very few sites support Samsung Pay. I am paying my Gas bill which supports Samsung Pay , apart from that none sites support it.
Good point you raised here.

Guess what .. samsung pay or wallet just mocked me where on iPhones you can just change location in settings .. samsung you need to flash to uae rom or software for the wallet to work .. this is soooooo sad and twisted. And I dont want to flash the rom It has🥲.. google wallet is a help but I use DIB and unfortunately isn't supported by Google wallet.. Imagine spending your money on something that later bites u...1760962778078.jpg1760962778097.jpg

I agree but when you are buying such expensive device you also should do some basic checks.
There is reason TRA approved versions are sold.
