    Is this in all released models in the time period or just the flagship vs iPhone 8, 8+ ?

    Samsung have A series, C series, J series and S series.
    Kind of weird when Samsung have so many different models of each series and then sell les then iphones do.

They used their Mobile divison for introducing some innovation and new things that mostly under-hood such as : 3-stack-layer-DRAM camera module and sensors , pushing the screen resolution in phone to able run 4K that mostly wasn't possible at that time , how to open SIM Slot and SD Card without SIM Ejector , and much more that i need to dig more .

      Even if you want them to catch those Samsung and Apple numbers easily , it's already impossible to make it happen , as Sony already stated they won't matters the numbers how many Xperia sold every quarters since 2015 . (to remind : Z3 era despite being the best , it's also the era where Sony lost a lot of money) . But instead , how to get a lot profits with small numbers sold and sell it without even promoting very much (they ain't Oppo or Vivo who over-promoted which people also don't like the way they do) . UNLESS , some "miracles" happens next year with their 4th chapter of Xperia .

        Cant wait for all the halfwit 15 year old "marketing and tech expert analysts" from third world countries to tell me how Apple is made by Samsung and that I'm a total loser because I happen to prefer myself an iPhone.

          Sony can easily catch up with those numbers but they keep doing shitty marketing techniques...
