      I beleive Samsung is going to release some type of on-demand Chat-GPT competitor that connects to a sever and causes for a subscription model (look at the chat-GPT model for example) that they will charge for, not the AI on-device phone features that are able to be done directly with the chipset capabilities. I don't think Samsung is so out of the loop they will just charge for standard features that all OEMs including apple will most likely provide for free when adopted. That's like saying Siri is free for 1 year after iOS 18, but then you gotta pay to use Siri on your device. It wouldn't happen. However, if Siri comes out with some type of generative AI that competes more with Chat-GPT and requires server maintenance, I could see that being free for 1 year and then charging (such as satellite phone connectivity tech)

      I might go with my carrier but I really want the 1Tb and year after year you can only get that through Samsung -- although this year you pay for the 512 Gb and get the 1Tb. Last year they only went up to 256Gb->512Gb. As for the subscription AI that some are is complaining about , it is only the cloud-based AI that they would be subscribing to and after two years. Much of the AI is onboard, including much of the foreign language translation.

    I wonder if the rumored subscription would result in the flagship phones being subsidized. So, instead of owning the phone, you would "rent" it as part of the subscription for the AI capabilites and upgrade to the newer model every 1, 2, or 3 years.

    If there is a paywall coming into play I may re consider an update if you pay for a premium phone with new features you should not have to lose those feature because they are greedy ive been a samsung user for a long time this needs to be advised before buying as legal trouble will come otherwise.

    • @andyH_England
      @andyH_England 3 місяці тому

      That point is wrong. If Samsung states that the first year is free and then they will charge then sensible people know what they are buying and understand it and will buy or not. It is like 3 months free with Netflix when you buy a new phone. If you want Samsung AI you cannot expect a free ride as it will cost Samsung billions.

    Depends on the price. Google has a similar offering with their photo features and I don't mind paying $3 for the features, access to a VPN, and extra storage. If theyre giving you the chance to try it for the remainder of 2024 you can decide if its worth it. Samsung probably views it as a valuable feature and we can't argue that.....how much they decide to charge is another question. I want the 23 Ultra so I honestly dont care lol, just my opinion CJ.

    You are completely right about this. But this AI magic is coming from Google. Even the 100$ price increase on the Ultra won't be enough to pay for the deal that Samsung must have struck with Google.
    I'm not happy about it but I actually always been on the position that Google should sell their software products. People have been porting the Google Camera on all sort of phones that had the Snapdragon chip and possibly the Exynos when they could.
    We want the Google magic without buying the Pixel line up... I don't know how people will react, but it is business. Maybe you have used it enough to know you want it and are willing to pay for it.
