Please support your arguments against mines by pointing exposure, shadows, soft-tones, saturation, etc. Be clearly and imparcial.

Hong Kong is 100% independent and should be seen as such. Big, militarized countries that coerce smaller nation-states through violence, oppression, or propaganda are fascist and should not exist in this world. Millions and millions of lives would have never been lost in history if bigger, aggressive countries didn't use force to control and steal smaller territories. You wouldn't allow a country to try and take over a new territory now so why is it okay that big nations KEEP what was already stolen or acquired by force? It's wrong and more nations should be independent, honestly.

                    If you want great photo quality with stock and reliable software, you must consider Huawei (P20 Pro/P30 Pro/Mate 20 Pro/Mate 30 Pro) and Google (Pixel 3 XL/4 XL) which are excellent at day and the best at night at the moment, but you have also Apple (XS Max/ 11 Pro Max) and Samsung (S-series/Note-series) which are excellent at day but not so good at night.

                      Well now you put it this way I agree with you.
                      I love Oxygen OS, one of the best implementation of Android period. But I don't buy oneplus phone because of there bad camera I saw 7 pro it was so good but the camera was real turn off.

                        Arif238, 18 Oct 2019You were talking about MIUI and you shifted to EMUI. Well, ... moreActually I didn't kill any app. Instead, I've set some "rules" in terms of functionality and autostarts and that's where AOSP-based Androids fails - they have a clean system, of course, but after installing apps for your needs you'll get worse battery life compared to a heavily costumized Android because you don't have such options/definitions in your system. Clean Android was a better choice some years ago when chipsets didn't have the processing power they have today (28nm vs 7nm+NPU), so a heavily customized Android i is probably a better solution where you can personalize its aesthetics and performance to your needs by having those non-AOSP "extras" - for example, on my clean (Android One) Nokia 9 PureView I got a worse battery life (3-4 hours SoT - normal use), compared to my "old" Samsung Galaxy S7 edge (4-5 hours SoT - normal use).
                        My current Huawei P30 Pro has 8-10 hours SoT with normal use.

                        PS: if I would buy an AOSP-based Android, it would be a OnePlus 7T McLaren Edition

I recall another review of this guy where he was worried about the use of a non-rigid glue in assembling of some other phone. seems he has no clue that the use of a (quasi) non-rigid glue is a must when putting together materials with different thermal expansion coefficients, like metal, ceramic, plastic, glass...., unless you want the phone to go into pieces after a number of heat up - cool down cycles

You don't need a notarized document or some meaningless stamp of approval to see that they are independent. We should respect that, not some formality from a bunch of random old men pushing papers who have no idea what it is like in Taiwan. All of that bureaucratic rambling and "official" status BS are all white noise compared to what actual citizens want and believe in the country.

                                    Haters gonna hate even if a company manages to make a perfect phone.

                                    Asus ROG 2 is probably the best gaming phone this year, and one of the best overall.
                                    They might argue that the camera is bad, but the phone isn't just a camera.

                                    If this gets released in my country I will buy it with no second thoughts. Asus has the best service here IMO: honest employees, cheap parts, fast repairs, and some of the best technicians around.
