Samsung got so embarrassed with what they did that they blocked my video!

I can't understand how a company which produces the highest standard consumer electronics can't afford to put a shred of bubble foil (or it's paper equivalent) to secure their products while shipping.

I recently got my new S22 Ultra 5G directly from samsung.co.uk store. The phone was not secured at all. I made a video but it's "awaiting approval" for almost a week (Samsung probably got really ashamed by it's contents 🤣).

No problem at all, here are YouTube links:

I got mine from Samsung online and it was in a large Samsung branded box, inside of the box was loads of Samsung branded packing paper, the phone was well protected. Infact I thought it was over kill.20220226_193530_78_1645904134.jpg

StuardR I got Tab A8 maybe a month ago. It was well protected but without an overkill. So don't they have any standardised way of shipment? They can ship £200 tablet properly but not 1 grand phone?

Why is that? This is the inside of the box:

Maybe it depends on where it's purchased from and if it's on a contract or not maybe it's shipped from whoever the contract is with but who knows.

Was the phone damaged? Doesn't look like it, so it appears they used *just enough* packing for the phone to be transported without damage, without generating lots of waste. Nothing there to be embarrassed about...Amazon, on the other hand....

Really? Would you be comfortable knowing that your phone fell or was hit during transport? I'd be, provided that it was £150 phone 🤣
