The gouging is insane. £300+ for a tablet keyboard case for the s9 ultra.

I got one free as a preorder for the s8 ultra. No chance I am paying that much for a keyboard.

Even my iPad keyboard (the folio from Apple) “only” cost like £180. Samsung’s going nuts.

But don't Samsung at least throw in the spen?

Samsung isn't on planet earth with their prices. I was avoiding them anyway because I believe TouchWiz is an inferior interface than stock Android. Just way too much bloat.

[–] Oneobi@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Bloat is negligible. In fact it is their software that keeps me stuck with samsung. Its a total superior hardware and software experience.

Just wished they hadn't gone down the Apple courage route and bumped the price and pimped the features.
