42.22.18.2

[jdrch]

Added Samsung Galaxy Watch5 Pro, Galaxy Watch Charger (Fast Charging), & 15 W Wireless Charger Duo. Ironically the latter doesn't work with my Note9 due to the Note9's case, and it doesn't work with the Watch5 Pro either due to the D-buckle not allowing the watch to sit flat on the charging surface. So it's being used as a beside charger for the Apple iPhone SE 3rd Generation.

After well over a year of Wi-Fi dropouts, my S5 has started to regularly corrupt microSD cards. From previous experience with my Moto Z2 Force, that signals an intractable hardware problem. Since the phone's onboard storage is so small it's useless for modern purposes without an adopted SD card, the phone itself is rendered useless and has been retired. The 128 GB microSD card in it has been removed.

One can't help but be amazed that a phone that was widely derided as having "poor build quality" lasted nearly 8.5 years, well past its 1 year warranty and 2 years of intended service. Samsung's hardware quality is top notch.
