Samsung announced on Monday evening that it will host a livestreamed Galaxy Unpacked event on September 4, strategically positioning itself just five days ahead of Apple’s highly anticipated iPhone 17 event on September 9.

The virtual event, scheduled for 5:30 a.m. ET (2:30 a.m. PT), will stream live on Samsung.com and the company’s YouTube channel, according to an official Samsung announcement. The timing appears deliberate, as Samsung seeks to capture attention before Apple’s traditional fall product launch window

    I’m not saying Apple is better, but being the same as Apple is not going to get anyone to switch. They have to be better. This regression is a big step back and side loading was the biggest draw to Android for me personally.

      But they are objectively better though that’s beside the point tbh. Normal peoppe don’t care that much about these issues unfortunately and thats why Google’s Pixel event was basically a TV shop for house moms rather than highlight on side loading and freedom.

      I do agree that regression is awful with the latest Google news that they’ll require developer identification for Google play protect and made me cancel my pixel 10 pre order. It’s incredibly shameful eventhough it can be bypassed with 1 setting toggle for now.
