Samsung faces fines for throttling Galaxy gaming performance

Samsung is currently facing potential fines for throttling the performance of its Galaxy gaming devices. This issue has arisen due to the company's efforts to prevent overheating during gaming sessions on certain phones. The Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) is now considering issuing a multi-million-dollar penalty against Samsung. This case echoes a similar scandal from a few years ago involving the Galaxy S22, where Samsung was accused of intentionally slowing down phone performance to avoid overheating issues.
