Idk if any of you guys have seen the new samsung unpacked but there is a lot thst has just annoyed me even though I still ordered the S25U.

Also a little heads up with pricing and stuff, I'm from Australia, all these prices are in AUD to the extent of my knowledge. If I've missed anything, TELL ME. 

 

 

I know that samsung and Microsoft had a partnership that was hudge in 2015 before one UI, but on the new s25 ultra, you have to pay for gemini, that comes with google cloud storage, so why not make gallery work with Google cloud storage. Just to save some space on my device and full functionality I have to pay for OneDrive and Google gemini. 

 

It's a massive waste of money and I don't wanna switch to google photos because then I miss all my functionality of Samsung's AI photo editing and remaster which I like using. 

 

It just forces you to switch between 2 apps for something that could be so easily integrated with an update. 

 

The only plausible conclusion I have thought for this is Samsung still holding a tight partnership with Microsoft for Windows 11 on there Book series of laptops, and having all the photos linked into 365, but that's employing the idea that people are going to use 365 only on there laptops. That only makes sense for if someone is using samsung for business work.

 

Am I missing anything here? Have a missed something that makes sense and I have no clue about??

 

Plus (for australia so the gollowing is in AUD) Google Drive plus cloud storage is only $20 bucks a month (240 a year) for 2tb. with the AI features. 

While 365 is $129 a year (6TB) + (from what I've read) $20 bucks a month through samsung (which mind you still comes with the 2tb of google storage), it just works out to be a shit ton more that I don't wanna spend.
