Dear Samsung, please stop wasting your best gadget with terrible advertisements

Advertisement is a known result of online life in 2025. When you watch a YouTube video, scroll through social media, or open such an article that you are reading now, it is normal and expected to look at advertisements. Some advertisements are more aggressive than others, but you know what you are doing when you use any aspect of modern internet.

However, there are other times when advertisements appear in unexpected places. These can be advertising in the digital wallet app on your smartphone, advertisement on home page for your smart TV, or even on your internet related fridge.

These are all places where Samsung has found it appropriate to include advertisements on its products, and it is a crazy pattern that needs to be stopped.

Advertisements on Samsung products take many different forms, and one of the most annoying is how advertisements are spread in Samsung smartphones.

This is not something that we really look at the phone of other brands like Google or OnePlus, but it is a side effect that we have come to accept on the Samsung phone. And even if You can close these adsThe fact that they are present in the first place are ridiculous.

And this is not just information. I booted my Galaxy S25 while writing this article, and in less than a minute, I came into three more clear forms of advertising.

On opening the Samsung wallet, I found with a full-screen advertisement for the 10th anniversary sweepstake of Samsung wallet (characteristic of the terrible low quality graphics). Once when I went last, the Samsung Wallet Home page was filled with cash back advertisements for Temu, Chevi, Sam Club, and more. Shortly after opening the Galaxy Store app, I was served a pop-up advertisement to the eye-AIP, which keeps advertising and other content right on your lock screen.

Keep in mind, these are not advertisements that I am looking at a third-party website or application; They are all coming directly from Samsung – on a phone that starts at $ 800. And this is the same experience, even if you have $ 1,300 Milky Way S25 Ultra Or $ 2,000 Galaxy jade fold 7No matter how much money you spend on Samsung phone, Samsung is still going to shake advertisements on your face. And no, it does not look good at all.

This same philosophy also applies to other Samsung products. Samsung’s smart TVs have become notorious about this. There is no shortage of People complaining On redit About advertisements His $ 2,000+ Samsung is seen on the home screen of television. No advertisement during advertising-brake expected on any other streaming app-the cooked advertisement in the system UI.

Even more importantly, it applies to Samsung Smart Fridge which starts from about $ 1,800 and can cost $ 3,500. To spend so much money on a smart fridge and to see the advertisement on it is an incredible landscape to think about an incredible landscape.

If the smart fridge cheese was its own, isolated phenomenon, I would expect enough response to encourage Samsung to reconsider the decision and possibly run back its planned advertising rollouts.

However, as Samsung is clear from phone and TV in the last few years, the possibility of this happening is no less for anyone. Samsung is a company Love Show advertisements to your customers, and no matter how much complaints are made, advertisements do not go away. While they are almost certainly a good money-maker for Samsung, they are also a certain way to feel the company’s products cheap and less quality.

He said, there is another way to see all this. Does an information about the upcoming new Samsung phone actually ruin your current phone? Does an advertisement on your home screen completely tarnish your smart TV? Is an advertisement on your smart fridge screen – a screen that you’re not always watching – make it obsolete?

You can say “not” very easily for all those questions, and if we are honest with ourselves, this will be the correct answer. But even though the underlying advertisements do not make these gadgets unusable, you should not keep with them-especially on phones whose cost is $ 1,000, TV costs $ 2,000, and the fridge can cost more than $ 3,000.

Samsung can earn a lot of goodwill by just flipping the switch on its advertising strategy, and a small part of mine is still out for the hope that. But as someone who has spent enough time in this industry, I also know how incredibly it is not likely.

So, Samsung, if you are listening, this is my formal request: Please make it easier with ads. You make good gadgets that are already quite expensive, and we should not pay the price by converting gadgets into expensive hoardings. enough is enough.
