Quoting the tl;dr in the linked article:

  • Samsung could be stepping up its game by offering seven years of major Android updates for the Galaxy S24 series, and the generous update policy might extend to other Galaxy flagships.

  • The Galaxy S24 series might also introduce charges for AI features like Live Translate and Pixel-like photo editing tools after 2025.

  • There's speculation that users may need to sign in to their Samsung accounts for certain AI functionalities.

Tizen or whatever they call it now is garbage. That is why I have a pixel.

Fuckin hate my Pixel.

Edit: didn't realize you guys were up Google's ass this much.

As someone that is interested in getting a pixel to use GrapheneOS I'm interested to hear what you hate about it. I'm still a little bit on the fence about it.

If you'll be slapping a different OS on, I'm sure it'll be fine. The hardware leaves a bit to be desired at the MSRP price point, but they depreciate pretty hard- a used one might be a win. I just know that it's a touch buggy for me, especially with StOcK aNdRoId and all.
