Yeah, but most people here defend Samsung as if they were their family member. Samsung doesn't give a shit about you or anyone here, they only want your money, as does every other company.

You can't turn banner ads off (Like in S-Health, S-Pay, Phone App, S-Music and more) but the people here who haven't experienced ads always suppress those who do or just lie about being able to turn them off. That is the reason they still haven't removed then, and they won't.

Sadly, almost no one of the biggest tech YouTubers uses Samsung, and if they do, they use google apps only, which is why this issue goes unnoticed.

There is mainly ads in the North American region, and in Asia (At least in South Korea to my knowledge). When I lived in Europe, I did not experience any ads, but when I moved to Vancouver ever since I got married and got a job opportunity, the ads started to pop up everywhere.

Really want to stay with Android, and most likely will, since iPhones also do ads in their settings for Apple TV, Apple Arcade etc, but it isn't as bad as Samsung. May look for a Sony phone where I believe the only ads which I could experience are in the game enhancer (I turn google discover off).
