Samsung Fined $15M for Hiding Gaming Performance Limits
South Korea's antitrust watchdog, the Fair Trade Commission, has decided to impose a fine of about 20 billion won ($15.1 million) on Samsung Electronics for misleading advertisements that concealed features limiting the performance of its Galaxy smartphones during high-spec gaming, according to Yonhap and the Korea Times. The fine, reported as 20.1 billion won by KBS World, stems from Samsung's failure to disclose that the maximum performance of Galaxy S21, S22, and Galaxy Tab S8 devices is uniformly restricted when running high-spec games, a violation of the display advertising law, as detailed by Chosun Ilbo and Kyunghyang Shinmun. Samsung has declared legal action, calling the decision "difficult to understand," and has announced plans for an administrative lawsuit, per Business Korea and Maeil Business Newspaper.
