Recently, I described the ultra slow response to replacement of my Sandisk Ultra II SSD, it took over 4 weeks. It seems the season for equipment failures, my Canon SL-1 took just over a week to be repaired, and last week my Samsung Tablet stopped charging, they sent a 2nd day shipping return label, so it took exactly a week to get back to me today with a nice description of the issue, and the new battery and main board they installed.
Then, today, I received a new but old stock Samsung Galaxy S5 Cell phone, sold by Amazon that I intend to have my wife use and switch from her old non smart cell phone. For $169, it seemed like a good starter phone. After a few hours of operation, it developed a rolling screen along with other issues. It took 5 minutes to request a replacement from Amazon and get a return label. I will have the replacement either tomorrow or day after. I'll lose the glass screen protector, but I bought a pack of 3, and was wondering what to do with the other two.
That Sandisk Service (Western Digital Service Center) is not competing with the world class companies. I've had very fast service from Lexar in the past and from Crucial as well. Its been many years since I've had a WD hard drive fail, but they used to be fairly fast at sending replacements.
