The chip reader is slow as hell. And yes, there are 3 prompts (that people constantly screw up). It's annoying as hell and just plain sucks. For whatever reason the phone reduces it solely down to 1 question (the "do you want cash back" and "verify amount" prompts are gone), significantly speeding up the process. stone posted... Take wallet out before cashier is done ringing. Take card out within 2 seconds. Tap to the machine. Put back in. I don't see how that's slower than Try to find phone. Fiddle around with it to turn it on. Swipe left and right to try to find the wallet app. Fail to put finger at the proper place. Give up after 3 unsuccessful tries. Put phone back wherever it was. Try to find wallet. Look around inside it to find your card. Insert it the wrong way. Take it out, and put it back in too fast, causing an error. Take it out again. Put it back in once the cashier told you to. Enter wrong nip. Remove card. Wait for cashier to tell you to try again. Insert card again. So in your example they know exactly where their wallet and card are and how to use them when they try to pay with the card, but then are apparently mentally challenged on doing the exact same thing if their intent is the phone? Not to mention that the general population is far more likely to know where their phone is than their wallet, considering their phone is used at least 10 times as often. I've literally not heard a single person utter the phrase "I forgot my phone" in at least 10 years. You can't just assume that one person is competent and the other is not because it suits your agenda. If they're both competent, the phone is at least twice as fast. If they're both incompetent, then it doesn't matter because they're both going to take fucking forever. Also, the Samsung Pay app leaves a small slider at the bottom of the screen (kind of like the Apps Edge panel on the sides of the screens) so you just swipe up from anywhere. You don't even have to unlock the phone to use it, so it's just "tap the button, swipe up, fingerprint scan" and you're done. There's no searching for anything. And 9 times out of 10, the person who's actually tech savvy enough to know what the fuck Samsung Pay is would also be perfectly capable of using it properly. Whereas any dumbass fuckhead can have 20 credit cards. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules <cite>Aristoph posted [p:884870124] in So my bank...
