AnonF-85937, 30 Aug 2019It only took getting 3x the RAM to finally beat the iPhone ... moreThere is a trade off to having closed source HW/FW/SW as opposed to what we see today. Diversity. Otherwise we would have Apple and a Scroogle like company both with closed source devices with a chastity on RAM like the pixel and iphone. Just imagine how much the freakin iphone would cost if Apple wanted you to have 12GB of RAM. You would pay 2k for the same device.

        ZInkee, 30 Aug 2019Not a hater here but apple is releasing there new iPhone ne... moreThey don’t do fair around here. Also iOS 13 is coming out soon for all iOS devices sooo things could get even more interesting around this as more devs unleash more power from the A12 and upcoming A13.

          It only took getting 3x the RAM to finally beat the iPhone in everything :’D

          Every Samsung from the moment they got 6GB RAM should have done this.

              Are you comparing 4GB with 12 GB? What if apple puts this sized hardware in its devices?Shame on all mobile companies that despite of latest chips and hefty hardware they are unable to beat XS MAX on benchmarks. I don't like iphone but how come no android is in the market to challenge XS MAX.

                All you guys talking about which camera is the best should stop

                You arent tryna see which is closer to an actual camera you are just going for the one you like better. You love it with more light, go for brand A. You love them a bit warmer? Go for Brand B's model B30.

                Also, if you fiddle around with the camera even a little you can get results you love more (open pro and have it colder/fprce more brightness/ change ISO etc.)

                        Note7 owner, 30 Aug 2019Wait till you have downloaded a few apps from disease infes... moreYou should be saying that to Apple with all of the bugs, hacks, viruses and data breaches they been having this year alone. And why would you mentioned slowing down the phones LMAO have you not heard?

                          Anonymous, 30 Aug 2019yeah , well done in destroying the 2018 iphone's flagship (... moreProps for Samsung for putting enough RAM to make the phone really fast.
                          If Apple putts 4GB it's their fault. I don't care if my phone (which isn't a Samsung) has 1 or 100 GB, I want it to be fast. About the iPhone to keep up, if you saw the test, it wasn't properly close, it was 30+ secs behind. The new A13 chip will be a lot faster in synthetic benchmarks but not much faster in 90% of the apps. Besides rendering 4k video (who really does that in a phone?) it is as fast as any SD855 phone.
                          The truth is that in real-life usage, the iPhones aren't faster than any Android flagship (and I'm counting the very cheap Xiaomi Mi9 or the Mi9T Pro).

                              I don't believe it

                                      Well still GeekBench says something else. This comparison isn't fair since Note 10+ must be compared to the to be released iPhone not the 1 year old one. btw I'm not Apple fanboy :)
