Yeah, but it also admits that it is AI generated. And Phone Link is the name used by a few different services, the most common made by Microsoft directly, so specifying Galaxy phones over Android on general is suspect.
That being said, AI doesn't usually pull out quite such specific and relevant terminology unless prompted to include it.
For anyone who wants something else, KDE Connect works outside of KDE, and even works on Windows. You don't need to use Microsoft's version.
And it is easier to setup. For phone link you have to scan QR code, wait for it to pair etc... And with KDE connect you click pair on one device and on second you accept. Easier and safer
