I've had 4 Samsung phones (s4, s6, s10, Flip Z3) and a few TVs. This is not reflective of my experience with Samsung products. Their products don't suck at all.

That's an anecdote. I've also had shitty experiences with Samsung products. Maybe it's a mixed bag but I hear more bad than good without going out and looking for it.

  And your experience + what you've heard is what, data? Versus being a collection of anecdotes?

    Currently it's the washing machine that just ... doesn't work occasionally. Power is good to it, confirmed with an electrician but it won't turn on. Give it a bit and it works. Prior it was phones having software issues but that was more than a few years ago at this point so I don't remember specifics.

My Samsung phones have been fine.

  Me too, I'm still using one and it's great. I think my last three phones have been Samsung, and all of them have been good. I won't be with them for my next phone however, unless they return the headphone jack.

  My S5 is an absolute trooper. My partner and I both had S5s, and played the "no phone game" for years where one would randomly try to smack the phone out of the others hands, maybe try to throw it out an open window or something. Ironically we both smashed our screens on the same day at our respective workplaces by dropping them on gravel. Still, her one survived a swim in the toilet with a smashed screen, then a swim in isoprop, and a few weeks in a jar of rice. Not that she wanted to use it after that.

The S4 is what convinced me to switch from Android to iOS. Did yours not have overheating issues?
