Even with wireless charging ? Damn

With regard to the warranty couldn’t you just re-flash the stock firmware as long as whatever recovery you’re using is still working? I have a OnePlus Nord N200 5G and I totally just did that when I needed to after I borked a custom rom installation on it (yes I realize that Samsung devices are different with Odin and what not, but I figure this would still work)

Well, the one I work at is actually a corporate (carrier) phone store so we don’t honor lower prices at competitors or anything like that. I just meant that it’s cheaper to buy from a carrier because of the 2 or 3 years of payments that also guarantee you stay with the carrier and pay for data for that period of time, so they make their money that way. My store does offer up to $500 off with an eligible trade-in though

I work at a phone store, it’s the best phone we sell screen-wise, camera-wise, and battery-wise. I’m sure you’ve seen the price without a trade in, but you could also buy from a carrier with a multi-year payment plan (which also means your device would be carrier locked); that’ll bring your price down like $250 from what I’ve seen. Check out the XDA Forum page for it and the TWRP website if you want to get into the really cool stuff. As far as downsides I’m not a huge fan of the pen because personally I’d lose it and in the stock software configuration it is full of AI shit. But bottom line it’s a fantastic device if you can afford it.
