Because Samsung mills this sh*t out!!!

TV's too!!!

I'm not saying their phones are total P.O.S.'s but between their TV's and cell phones, they are more substandard than most other manufacturers.

Both Samsung televisions AND cell phones are among the most unreliable, even though they're most popular but quality is lacking.

F'ing S. Koreans think their shizzy doesn't stink and can mill out garbage w/o negative effects............well......HERE'S YOUR FIRST.

It isn't because they are from South Korea, it is because their product design cycle doesn't leave time for adequate testing. Kia and Hyundai are also from South Korea, and while I personally think their cars look terrible to the point that I'd be embarrassed to drive a brand new one, they are well made. Samsung does make some nice stuff; their higher-end TV's and monitors are lovely. I gave up on their phones long ago, but that was actually more because of their war on root than any quality issues...if they spent as much effort testing the batteries as they do trying to keep people from using Titanium Backup, the FAA would be asking them to make new batteries for the 787.

I'm afraid that they may have copied a bit too much of the Apple thing where you focus on meeting a specific launch date and appearance and completely forget that people will actually be using it. At least there are about a hundred other companies making Android phones.
