So I've kind of had a rough couple of years with Samsung. After really liking my Note 5, I was entirely disappointed by the S7 (laggy, battery deterioration), S8+ (also laggy), and S9+ (overheating and battery deterioration).
For the past few days I've been using the 10+, it seems really great. One UI is definitely faster and more fluid than anything that's come before (it's honestly just as quick as my OnePlus 6T's UI), and the battery life has definitely been stellar.
But with pretty much all of the other S-line phones I've had troubles with, they've always seemed to get substantially worse at the 6-9 month mark. I didn't have many complaints about the S9+'s battery until about August, and then it just started struggling like crazy.
Has anyone else had similar experiences and have similar concerns? For anyone who's owned an S9+, did One UI improve the battery life or performance at all?
I dunno. I really like the phone. I really want to keep the phone. But I'm really questioning how many years of suffering eventual buyer's remorse I should have before I decide to call it quits permanently.
