You broke it, you bought it Samsung. Full refund. Pick up the device at your expense or provide disposal costs as well.

Warranty is not any part of the issue if you come into my house and break a thing I own and is my property.

What makes you think that what they broke is your property?

Read the EULA. It almost certainly specifies that what you think you own, has in fact just been licensed to you.

No. This is actually nonsense.

Nobody has read the Eula. Nobody has knowingly and willingly agreed to those terms (if they exist). No vendor has expected those terms to be read (if they even exist). No vendor has explained those terms to a customer.

There is a contract for exchange of ownership. You can't actually break that contract with unconscinable means such as fine print that nobody reads nor is expected to read nor has had explained.

Read a EULA if you like but it will do absolutely nothing for you nor will it alter the law and the application of the law. Maybe you'll enjoy the read though?

It is an item, purchased in a shop in exchange for money. There's rather a lot of established law about that.

You shouldn't be able to, but I think in most jurisdictions you most certainly can.
