All the high profile reveals came and went, which flagship has you the most excited?

I guess you have just met your own ideal phone

    AnonD-523334, 17 Apr 2017Lol. I didn't forget, I ignored. 1) QHD+: yes, I already ... moreYeah Xiaomi fan.
    "Xperia problems will exist until Sony dies" - so Sony won't die, lol

      That pretty much answers your own question - that is when refered to the S7/S7 Edge

        Anonymous, 17 Apr 2017So the S8 has nothing over the XZP in your opinion? And t... moreFirst of all, who said I don't?
        I asked you/him (not sure of you cause you both are Anonymous) to name several reasons why the S8 is better than the XZ Premium, and now you assumed that I don't think the S8 doesn't have advantages over the XZP? What kind of response is that? I'm not a nitpicker, I'll name a few about it, but only "few"
        Second, everyone can have their own opinion. Stopping me to believe something proves your ignorance and ego

        Third, what knowledge are you asking from me? You want me to share everything I know to you? Meh, not worth my time, but if I do so, prepare to waste your lifetime listening to me - that's only half of everything I know

        Last, if you feel bad that I'm justifying everything I say, grow up and be matured, act as a matured person. I'm not here to troll, I'm here because I want, and GSMArena is open free to express my opinion and my disagreement. If you have problems with fanboys, then stop living in the tech world if you can't take them as an average user.

          I'm curious. What makes people vote for other phones when the obvious choice here is the s8. I dont see anything new which will actually make a difference.

            S8 is best phone and Mi6 and OP5 is best deal. Simply. Have much money goes for S8, want less cost than S8 then goes for Mi6 and OP5.

              LG phones bootloop

              Sony phones self-crack.

              One Plus phones lack a good camera.

              Really the only phones anyone with a brain should consider are

                Mark, 16 Apr 2017Oh! You forgot. QHD+ display, 3d touch home bouton, iris s... moreLol. I didn't forget, I ignored.
                1) QHD+: yes, I already said it is same QHD display but taller.
                2) 3D touch : even Apple fans don't use it and hardcore Apple analysts criticized it, even though it has some reasonable integration with ios and full chances of third party app integration. but in android, 3D touch is useless, and a shamelessly copied feature.
                3) Bixby : s voice 2.0 Beta. even not as good as good assistant which is already In S8 OS.
                4) USB c : it should have been in s7, Samsung is catching up now, just like LG in terms of waterproofing.
                5) 8MP selfie : seeeeriously!
                And yes, I also criticized G6, which is actually the phone LG should have had a year ago (though they would not have needed the new screen at that time, a regular sized screen with regular sized bezels would have done the job). I also criticized P10 for having worse design than P9 (though glittering finishes are nice) but they improved on GPU. Xperias will retain their problems until Sony dies. But yay, I have high hopes for Mi6. It won't be revolutionary, but it will, as always, a nice overall package in a compact form fact, for a reasonable price.
                Though my perfect phone
                1) Mi5 screen size, overall size, and design, but all metal like P9 Is nice. . If they trim side bezels, it's always welcome. Actually, would love a 5" screen.
                2) 1080p screen, but AMOLED.
                3) 12MP, IMX378 f/1.7, dual pixel AF. don't care if there is a second one or not.
                4) sd835, 6GB ram, 128GB storage, SD card.
                5) IP68
                6) 3000mah, with 100h+ endurance. (Mi5 with LCD display, same battery and sd820 score 92h)
                7) don't care if it is easier to bend like Mi5, coz I don't think someone should try his brutal force to bend his phone. Neither I sit on my phone. Mi5 alloy frame is more than enough strong to survive the accidential drops.

                  Can't we just say that the LG G6, Samsung Galaxy S7, and the Sony Xperia XZ Premium are all good smartphones, and all it comes down to your personal preference?
                  If you want half-baked software with no updates, get the Samsung, if you want poor battery life, cameras that don't live up to expectations, and to be ripped off, get the Sony, and if you want a hideous UI with last year's chip, get the LG.
                  It's as simple as that ;)

                    Clearly users prefer these features over the ones you mentioned.

                    Until Sony sorts out their battery life, massive bezels and gets AMOLED I will never consider one.

                              Although seeing reviews of S8 plus getting 4hr SoT out of its 3500mah battery, I suppose Plain S8 is also 4hr SoT at most.
                              But its cheaper now.... 969$.

                              Its a bargain really.... you get those slim bezels and that beautiful slim screen, and new SoC.

                              But yeah, I prefer prospects of XZ Premium more.
