As for the bias, proof?

I like Sony phones too. Camera's fantastic, and the software is actually good enough to not degrade in performance within few months unlike Samsung phones. But you can't just call a reviewer biased just because he couldn't get units to review the phone.

I saw a review where a guy was holding a moto g4th , iphone 6s and Samsung s7 .. and the camera on the moto g was so bad... oversaturation day light and really dark on lowlight ...the g6 is brighter than that ..... the g6 camera sensor is small right even smaller than my lg g4 which has a way better camera than these moto g...... im not saying that the camera is bad... they do their job snapping social media photos that's it.. but if need to compare then I have to say that even the lg cameras are better than Samsung .... or even look the camera review between Samsung and lg even better from lg g4 - Samsung s6 days and tell dxo is a no go for me any more.

OnePlus 5 seemed to vastly lack at 4K video stabilization comparing it to other phones such as the Pixel siblings (EIS) and the iPhone 7 Plus (OIS) .. You should know what you're talking about before jumping on people and calling them stupid.

I'll give you a hint, that shaking everyone see in OP5 videos is the *lack* of proper stabilization. Somehow DxO gave the OP5 (on stabilization *alone*) 87 point -- you read it right, 87 freaking points in a phone without OIS and very visible *lack* of proper stabilization.

                You can preach all you want, facts are effin facts. Its undeniable this review has no credibility, the video stabilization score proves that (it's so obvious you'd have to be in psychotic denial not to see it).

                  and your comment is an evidence.

                  do you even know what standard tests are? they examine the sensor, they make photography on standard test tables etc, not real life.

                  you credibility has gone...
                  ah you don't have credibility, you are just an anonymous "someone"

                    The XZP for example has a 4K HDR display, recording at 960 f/s and as gsmarena wrote an article about it yesterday I think, it will record until there is no more space (no auto shut-down due to thermal heating like ALL other phones out there).
                    This is very impressive for a mobile phone and as a mobile phone reviewer, MKBHD SHOULD do it. But no, he only does OnePlus, Sammy and crapple.
                    And you're telling us he is bot biased. Right!
                    Don't get me wrong, I like Marques, but if he keeps going like this, nobody will look at his videos anymore.

                      Some people do not understand that point and shoot does not work always.
                      Some situations require manual settings to make nice pics.
                      That is why regular people cannot get better photos with some phones.

                      Auto mode + low light = bad choice.. Iso goes high.
                      Outdoor night photos + flash = no way, unless you wanna photograph people near you.

                        A) XZP x G6 x S8 : xzp better in daylight, s8 better in low light, xzp better in low light while on tripod

                        B) xzp x i7+ x u11 : xzp better in most situations

                              S6 has sub score 88 for photos, but lower sub score of video.
                              S6 edge+ has lower sub score of photos 86, but better video. So it has 87 total score.

                                AnonD-640268, 07 Jul 2017If he does not get a review unit he should buy a sony phone... moreBwahahahahaha....

                                1) He has SAID in his videos that he like Sony phones. So is he against Sony?
                                2) I doubt he is biased towards any company. To be frank, OnePlus phones have been very well done for the past 3 years. So if he has good statements for OnePlus phones, you now know why.

                                  Thought DXO rates the sensor only, not related to the end result anyway, but still if it OP5 has better numbers than LG G5, iPhone 7 then I am a trillionaire but I just didn't know that until now.

                                      There's no way the OP5 camera is better, in any one category, than the Mate 9, S6, Note 5, G6, Nexus 6P or iPhone 6S.

                                      Goodbye, DxOmark credibility... We barely knew you.
