However, you’ve probably never encountered something like this one IT professional says on Reddit. This Samsung customer claimed that the company owes him more than $35,000 in trade-in credit for the purchase of 125 Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.

The customer further detailed the story saying that he is a business owner who wanted to upgrade the smartphones of his 125 employees. They split the order of 125 Galaxy S22 Ultra into three transactions with the first two orders for 50 phones on April 15 and May 3, and then a third order for 25 phones on June 8.

The company didn’t provide trade-in credit from the first order, which is $35,880. On the other hand, most of the trade-in credit for the second and third orders was received by him but the customer found that around $9,713 was still missing from these credits.
Later, the credit card company closed off two of the disputes and credited $9,713 back to the buyer. However, the largest amount is pending and the Samsung still owes customer’s more than $35,000.
According to the report by SamMobile, Samsung’s trade-in policy states that “trade-ins should take no longer than eight business days to be processed and confirmed via email.” But in this case, it has been more than two months since the trade-in claim started and the credit from the first order was yet to come.
Circle to Search will be getting a significant functional boost later this year. At I/O 2024, Google confirmed to upgrade Android’s Circle to Search with the ability to help you get your homework done. The service will add support for Math and Physics topics to help users.
Google teased at I/O 2024 that Circle to Search will add new features, helping students better understand potentially difficult class topics. Looking at what Google teased, the feature could show them step-by-step instructions for a “range of physics and math word problems.”
Thanks to the LearnLM AI models, Circle to Search will be capable of understanding and demonstrating symbolic formulas, diagrams, graphs, and more. When available, it will be accessible as an experimental feature which could be activated through Google Account under the Labs section.

To recall, Circle to Search was first released with Samsung’s S24 series earlier this year. Later on, the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro received it through an OTA upgrade. It’s one of the star new features of Android, and although iOS users can’t yet circle their math homework for help, anything is possible.
