It’s not new that Samsung snipes Apple on account of accessories or product features. During the iPhone 13 launch, in September this year, the South Korean made a publication in the Twitter with the phrase “We’ve been updating to 120 Hz for a while”, referring to the screen refresh rate launched by the apple brand in the new models — which was already used in the Galaxy S20 since 2020.

Last year, Apple announced that would fail to deliver chargers to cell phone cases. At the time, Samsung provoked the competitor in a publication in the Facebook, considering the accessory as a basic item that was delivered by the manufacturer to users. However, the South Korean company also ended up adopting the rival’s practice and failed to put chargers in boxes after the launch of Galaxy S21.
