  120hz screens - made by samsung,they also sold to razer for their phone and htc i think Airpods - a proprietary bluetooth stack that only runs well with apple devices, wow much r&d. They run well but samsung mostly replicated the proprietary bluetooth stack for their own earpod/works with galaxy only pairing solution.They also die in a year with average use so imo it's just more electronic fad garbage. AR- vaporware currently to the point where they're talking about the credit card as a selling point. also AR in general is garbage on current gen devices. it's fun but it's not useful. vehicle- failed.

    Failed and vapor ware are a positive indicator in R&D. Failure and prototypes are a normal part of research.

      Is announcing things that are nowhere near completion as finished products coming soon and putting logos for them everywhere also a "normal part of research"?
