Verizon S22 Ultra.
I'm right there with you. It's trash now. I updated to 6.1 last night, and have lost a METRIC TON of customization options. If you click on the newly (unnecessarily) renamed setting "Lock screen and AOD", it's been completely gutted. There's no option for "Clock Style". There's nothing for the lock screen at all, actually. And there's only like two options for the Always-On Display. No brightness control. No font or color options. Nothing. All that's left are the settings for when you want the thing to actually turn on and whether you want your music information to be shown.... ={ And this is not to mention that with every update, they make the font smaller and smaller on the AOD battery percentage, date, etc. They also took away the multicolored icons for your notifications. Actually, most of the lock screen stuff you now have to accomplish by setting a background through the stock Gallery app OR going into "Wallpaper and Style". I mean, what am I? A 12-year-old girl, *****!? And I AM aware that I can go through the annoying, time-consuming trouble of downloading that stupid Good Lock app through the Galaxy Store, then download the "NavStar", "LockStar", "ClockStar", etc. modules—each of them 150 MB or more, by the way—just to get it all back to a similar design as it was before this worthless FORCED update. This is so effing LAME!!! But hey, at least they got rid of that ugly yellowish/brownish/grayish color of the notifications in the Notification Panel. They're translucent black now....so that's nice..... 😐
I'm getting EXTREMELY tired of Samsung constantly raising the prices on their mid–upper tier devices (nearly) every year by at least $50 to $100, while simultaneously removing more and more basic features and functions with each subsequent release—all in the name of streamlining their devices to make them as similar to the competition as they can legally get them, and also as simple for morons to use as they can possibly be. I've been using Galaxy devices for a decade and some change. I would REALLY rather not get an iPhone for my next device, but I'm getting hopelessly irritated and disillusioned with this kind of *****. Maybe I'll get a Pixel. They've really been improving these last few years. Yeah, actually that doesn't sound too bad. Certainly preferable to this utter garbage.
Samsung, here in a few months I'm going to get an upgrade through my carrier, and I will not be returning to the world of Galaxy. It's your own fault for actively driving your customers away, DA!
