Last week, a Twitter user made claims that the Game Optimization Service (GOS) for optimizing games on Samsung devices is slowing down more than 10,000 apps. It has been determined that there is a performance restriction with the documents shared by the user.
After accepting this claim, Samsung promised to fix the ‘error’ and soon kept this promise. But that wasn’t enough. Now the company is facing a lawsuit for slowing down apps. Here are the details…
Samsung is in trouble with the FTC
GOS, which slows down 10 thousand applications, including applications such as YouTube, Instagram, Netflix, Microsoft Office, TikTok, is used in the advertisements of the Samsung Galaxy S22 series. the best performance ever” wasted his words.
The Korea Fair Trade Commission (FTC) has received complaints from Galaxy S22 series users for allegedly violating advertising law during the promotion of the series. Because the GOS software slows down applications, refuting the best performance promise in the ad. South Korea’s antitrust watchdog, the FTC, decided to look into the matter because Samsung made false promises.
Galaxy S22 series was supposed to come with 120Hz screen speed, providing a smoother transition and more comfortable use. However, gamers found that the models do not provide 120Hz screen speed while playing games. The reason for this was again the GOS software.
This software’s inability to turn it off manually caused it to get worse reviews for Samsung. The results of Geekbench’s test on the brand were quite surprising. Because the Galaxy S22 series can only reach 53.9 percent of the promised performance when GOS runs in the background. This shows that the users who complained are quite right.
