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 was an anti Apple hater too before I learned tech tribalism is dumb.

Saying Apple is bad is not tech tribalism. Even in this shitty duolopoly competition is good and reflecting on platform differences is what pushes them to compromise. If android didn't have side loading Apple would have never been forced to open up in europe and if Apple didn't have magsafe we would never have qi2 etc.

It's objectively good to have conflict here unless you believe in some twisted form of accelerationism where both platforms should burn in a fire and which clearly will never happen.
