Former Samsung Note fan here.

Until 2017 I bought Note models every 2 years 2nd hand from Amazon Warehouse Deals or GiffGaff Market, but I lost interest in getting a new phone because:

- Zero exciting innovation from both Android and Apple since 2017
- 6.8" screen sizes have not increased since 2019 (I want a 7.3" non-folding phone)
- Samsung adds meaningless features instead of fixing core Android software issues (Chrome crashing, Google Maps/Play not doenloading or eveb updating apps anymore, impossible to enter Boot menu)
- Inconsistent camera quality
- Battery life worse than iPhones
- iPhones will get USB C in 2024
- Impossible to save all photos and downloads immediately onto Google Drive or Dropbox due to Samsung's partnership with MS OneDrive

I'm seriously considering to use my phone for 5 years until I can get a USB C iPhone.

It dipped because we finally realise that it's dumb to throw your 1year old phone for an "upgrade" that's basically the same chipset in a new chasis with little tweaks

It seems to have been one thing after another for the smartphone market over the last 2 years. Now, Counterpoint Research has observed that it has dipped below the 100-million mark in terms of global sell-through for the second time since 2020. By contrast, the same figure had not been so low for nearly eight years prior to that.
