The A13 Bionic destroys any and all Android flagship out there and is probably better than the upcoming SD865 lol. Besides, sales will heavily favor Apple like it always does.

              James, 31 Dec 2019That's why the iPhone 11 shouldn't be first because it was ... moreYou have no idea what you're talking about hater. The iPhone 11 is literally the same as the Pro version except for the missing telephoto camera, 828p IPS LCD screen, 7000 series aluminum frame, and slightly worse IP68 water resistance since it can survive 2 meters of water instead of 4. It's the first budget iPhone that didn't cut too many corners. I love my Product Red 256GB iPhone 11 and I don't plan on upgrading for many years.

                  You forgot ASUS - the Zenfone 6 is neither a flahship without an oled display, nor is it a mid range phone since it has flagship specs. But these main-camera selfies are unmatched. And the display gets bright enough, albeit not oled.

                    Yeah it needs 12GB or RAM to be able to run LagUI. Anything less would result into constant freezing, crashes and reboots. What a crappy, overpriced phone!

                        Keke, 30 Dec 2019iPhone 11 pro should be given the first spot. That phone is... moreThat's why the iPhone 11 shouldn't be first because it was advertised as a Pro all the while offer little "Pro" feature. There are many reasons I can give you why it's inferior but that would be too long.

                          Keke, 30 Dec 2019iPhone 11 pro should be given the first spot. That phone is... moreIf iPhone 11 is Best, but it doesn't come close to Pro version, it means it isn't the best. It would mean it is second best... Which would make no sense.. Actually, for me, purchasing iPhone would make no sense...

                            Keke, 30 Dec 2019iPhone 11 pro should be given the first spot. That phone is... moreMore people use android than ios, even if the iphone 11 is a beast, if it only sells in certain markets, it's useless.

                              Great choice the Note 10+ has an amazing screen, fast LTE speeds and CPU great choice for best flagship of 2019, however I wouldn’t buy a second one if I lost mines. Why? The on screen FP is worthless. It’s so bad that I prefer to use the much less secure alternative face unlock. But that too runs into trouble when I need to use google play, where a finger Print is required and frustration overwhelms me again. Horrible horrible implementation. Truly a waste of an otherwise brilliant phone.

                                iPhone 11 pro should be given the first spot. That phone is a monster. I'm using iPhone 11 twhich is the best but it doesn't come close to PRO.
