I’m also in that zone of being in the market for things that Samsung sells, but to me, the brand association is with having all of these issues that don’t seem very worth it to me. I just want something affordable and reliable, things that I don’t associate with Samsung.

People probably aren’t enthused about buying an overpriced tv, fridge, washer, or phone that all come with bloatware and adware.

Wait, didn’t the gold check marked brands have to pay exorbitant fees for the checkmark? Is that counting towards the $1000 per month or is that deal being replaced with this new one?
