    Korea is extremely class conscious and people treat people differently based on perceived wealth. iPhone being considerably expensive than Samsung offerings in Korea is an instant wealth signifier and having an iPhone means you are perceived as upper rich class than those pesky poor Samsung, which is now associated with old people or who couldn’t afford an iPhone.

    Bruh. It’s not surprising though, Samsungs just suck and it was a mistake on Google’s part to allow them to continue representing the brand in any meaningful way to the normies while all the nerds had the best of both worlds on pixels

    EDIT: why even downvote me lol I like android (at least before 12 🤮), just not samsung
