Samsung Fined 201B Won for Hiding Game Performance Limits
South Korea's Fair Trade Commission (FTC) decided on Oct. 27 to impose a corrective order and a tentative fine of 20.1 billion won (about $15.1 million) on Samsung Electronics for violating the Act on Fair Labeling and Advertising, Yonhap and other outlets report. The FTC found that from January 2021 to March 2022, Samsung advertised Galaxy S21 and S22 series and Galaxy Tab S8 devices without disclosing that maximum performance is uniformly limited as soon as high-spec games run, due to the Game Optimizing Service (GOS). Samsung said it disagrees with the FTC's conclusion and will contest it through a lawsuit, according to Business Korea and Dong-a Ilbo.
