Samsung schedules Galaxy event 5 days before Apple's (news.samsung.com)

Samsung announced on Monday evening that it will host a livestreamed Galaxy Unpacked event on September 4, strategically positioning itself just five days ahead of Apple's highly anticipated iPhone 17 event on September 9.

The virtual event, scheduled for 5:30 a.m. ET (2:30 a.m. PT), will stream live on Samsung.com and the company's YouTube channel, according to an official Samsung announcement. The timing appears deliberate, as Samsung seeks to capture attention before Apple's traditional fall product launch window

I guess side loading is sort of possible on an iPhone, but not something an average user is going to do. From my limited Android experience, it seems much easier there, for better or worse.

What software features does Samsung lock behind subscription? The only thing that comes to mind with Apple is Apple One, but that’s for content and cloud storage, not things we’d expect for free.

My understanding was that the s24 had ai features that were free for a year that later turned into a subscription to use. I don’t know if that has changed or not.

If not, I wonder if the photos app has some advertisement to subscribe when you open editing even if not using ai features.
