    Anonymous, 31 Oct 2019Ewww! Samsung cameras are pretty bad compared to other bran... moreLaggy OneUI... go home because that's a lie. Unless you use an old J3 updated to OneUI
    Also they have true 960 (eDRAM) unlike Huawei and Xiaomi that do interpolated from 240fps. You obviously don't know what you're talking about. Just buy whatever phone you want and don't spread nonsense.

      Anonymous, 31 Oct 2019Ewww! Samsung cameras are pretty bad compared to other bran... moreNo 960 FPS - Im sure S9 and onwards have 960fps super slow-Mo modes

      Unrealistic photo - Why becuase they over saturated? Huawei does it worse no one complains

      Laggy One Ui . Miui/oxygen iOs much faster - But less features than One UI. One UI is probably the best Android UI

      In software optimization Samsung is far far behind other brands - must be why Google been taking features for Android 9 and 10 from Samsung makes sense.

      Samsung relying on quality more than quality - ?????????

You clearly don´t have Galaxy smartphone from upper middle/high class and you haven't taken photos with it. Also OneUI is definetly more functional and beautiful than lifeless, applelish looking skins that you have mentioned.

          This type of haters have not extinct yet?? Just buy whichever phone meet your needs and stop nagging about others

            Huawei would've become the number 1 smartphone maker if it wasn't for the US ban. Apple will slowly fade away to 5th place after Xiaomi and BBK. If we consider BBK the father company of Oppo, Vivo, One Plus and Realme as 1 company, if they can capture the most competitive the Chinese and Indian market, they would become the number 1 company, but competition is fierce. Samsung would remain the top company, probably but would lose market share when the Chinese companies get well know throught Europe and eventually the US if the US doesn't ban them anyway.

In medium light so much noise galaxys flagship . Unrealistic photo . Laggy One Ui . Miui/oxygen iOs much faster. Not pro mode for video mode . In software optimization Samsung is far far behind other brands . Samsung relying on quality more than quality .

                We might see a new leader next year. And an Apple ditched out of Top 5.
