Anonymous, 28 Aug 2018Didn't knew that ois helps in low light photography It does help in low light, but only if your subject is stationary.
I would still go for better sensitivity for night time photography, because better high ISO performance negates the effect of motion blur due to the fast shutter speed paired with it.

Mr. Electronics, 28 Aug 2018Actually not really, there's only one phone more this year,... moreI mean flagship level performance for phones below $500 (the gateway to flagship territory) is the new thing here, and don't just talk aboit Xiaomi here.
Huawei also offers their Kirin 970 for below $400, and Asus also has the $420 Zenfone 5Z with SD845.
Regarding OnePlus, it would be a great thing if they kept the same price tag as the original OnePlus phones, but as time goes by, they simply went from being flagship killer to typical premium flagship. Their phones are getting better year by year, that's for sure, but the gradual increase in price also defies their identity of cheap flagship killer phones.

This "LiquidCool" is nothing but another marketing attempt to pass off a common feature as something completely new. See HTC's "UltraPixel" for reference....

"Nokia 8 also have liquid cooling pipe year ago"
At this price level? I don't think so. Pocophone is one of the highest price/value phone. GJ Xiaomi

A large part of the price difference must be explained by marketing costs. Awaiting the first Pocophone store to open in London...

The factory making Apple is littered with underpaid child labor and miserable working environment that they have to literally install nets around the windows to prevent people from committing suicide as there have been a series of such cases.. Buying Apple means you are supporting such hideous practice.. You wonder how Apple sell the least phones yet make the most profits?
