There seems to be no information on these new audio amplifier chips Samsung have switched to. I wonder if it's responsible for the speaker system improvement?

Correction: The S22 and prior use the CS35L40, while the S23 is using a seemingly customised part (CS35L42), there doesn't appear to be any kind of specs sheets available so I'm not sure if it's comparable to the CS35L45 in some of the other phones like the ROG, BlackShark, Xiaomi which have phenomenal sound systems.

The fact that Samsung have been using the same audio amplifiers since the S10, blows my mind. So the big step up in speakers on the S23 series is purely down to the new AAC SLS speaker partnership and some dsp optimisation.

Have you guys given up on Galaxy devices?

iPhone’s don’t get hate for the repairability. They get hate for what Apple tries to do to stifle 3rd party repair. That is all.

Are those amplifiers still based on Cirrus Logic designs? They seem to have a very similar model number to older Cirrus/Apple amplifiers. Why do they still have Cirrus audio codecs but use the Apple branding on the Cirrus parts? Are they trying to push out Cirrus Logic?

Still DDR3 though? The MacBook Pro and most other laptops are running DDR4…

The Slow-mo guys on youtube often record action at a fraction of a second. Enough to play it back to analyze the result. Just because 960fps is too slow for you doesn’t mean it is a gimmick. That’s very arrogant. I don’t find the iPhone 8’s wireless charging necessary but I wouldn’t call it a gimmick. I’m sure you’ll find ways to praise Apple’s version on the next iPhone. You seem to feel the need to venture onto non-Apple pages and articles to tell us how much the Samsung sucks and why it’s the same, yet make a positive spin for every Apple decision. The iPhone has largely stayed the same from the iPhone 6 up-to the 8, however because it’s Apple, it’s familiar and recognisable. Samsung re-uses the same design for the second iteration, they’re now Samesung… I don’t get it. I don’t even use a Samsung as my daily either haha.

I would say both Animoji and AR Emoji are both gimmicks. The difference being you can actually use your avatar as a gif in many 3rd party apps similarly to Bitmoji. It is kind of creepy. However I think both are novelty. You can’t single out Samsung just because you own an iPhone X.

(In Mr Burns voice) Samesung ey?

Seriously though, why are you even here??? LOL
