          Samsung should think about the descrimination between processors...people dont want to pay 1000$ for laggy,throttling exynos chip..thats why apple ships more phone than samsung flagships and also sells a lot.

Hurry up to get one!

                I'm surprised we dont see something along the lines of an iPhone 12c & 12c Max.

                  FAKE NEWS!!!!! This is a fake report.
                  Just watch the publicity, commercial (TV/social media) in your single country and you can see you hace 0 from Huawei for P40 and new devices. Huawei no longer exists!
                  I´ll repeat, this is a fake report.

                    They did say they would take the top spot from Samsung in 2020. No one expected them to do it after the US trade ban though. Anyway, this is a win for competition verses protectionism.

                      if samsung only puts back headphone jack surely tons of fanboys will be back, id go for sony or lg after lockdown

                        Samsung is a sinking ship. Apple, Huawei, ans Xiaomi dominates.

I skipped the S20 line for two key reasons, the aggressive price bump and lack of headphone jack. Samsung's older phones get cheaper fast which is why I want to go for the S10e at $350 on Amazon Renewed. The S20 hasn't been out long enough to be cheap still at $800 for the 6.2" 128gb model.
