ericwang, 08 Dec 2020Smartphone company(and any other company) can not reach suc... moreI was hoping huawei would do so, juding by their significant shipments increase of the P and Mate series since the P20 Pro. But all of a sudden, the Google ban came, so maybe huawei would be back someday. Huawei was the one to start rhe trend of :

1. Periscope zooms
2. Night mode
3. Reverse wireless charging
4. Super fast charging (above 30W)
5. Fast wireless charging (above 25W)
6. Large camera sensors
7. Beautiful back finish

But now, even without Huawei, my hope is in Xiaomi. They release very incredible phones for the price. For below $780, Mi 10 Ultra is incredible, just sad it was in China only. For that price, even Oneplus 8T is considered a toy and even the $1300 Note 20 Ultra. So i hope Xiaomi will release their phones more globally and keep pusing technologies forward, not like the lazy Samsung and Apple.

    Don't really care about charger, but earphones as well???? Damn

          960, 08 Dec 2020And this is why I hate Apple. They make ridiculous decision... more"And this is why I hate Apple. They make ridiculous decisions out of greed, and the brainless idiots at Samsung and other companies must follow the fruit company because they can't think for themselves."

          Or maybe people are just sick of really expensive phones? Look how well new iPhones are selling and i'm quite sure people are really happy with the pricing of new iPhones. Everyone expected price hike for Pro models atleast $50 if not $100 because added expensive 5g tech yet the same stayed same than last year. According to news came at weekend S21 price will be quite lot lower than S20 and one reason for that is lack of these things. Samsung knows they have reached the price limit with S20 and Note line and both phones are selling really badly.

          And yes for sure others will follow because this is a good direction. I will definitely take a cheaper product price without accessories which i already have many of them.

              It's the users' fault again.

                Samsung: *mocks Apple for doing something controversial*

That’s why they’re so complacent when the Trump administration help Apple and Tim Cook to stop the progression of Huawei worldwide. It’s not about the security but the tech and monetary power that they really want to end because Huawei is a legit fierce competitor.

They aren't any less greedier. True kick in the teeth these days is mostly by Xiaomi especially their Poco sub brand and Realme. Hopefully, Xiaomi won't follow the suit

                            Hope Huawei can come back to change the trend of smartphones back. Without huawei, the entire industry is lazy and keep cutting features. When there is huawei, there is more innovation than there is now when there is no Huawei

                                Here we go again

                                  Unless the charger is offered for a symbolic price of a few euros I'd not even consider Samsung phones as lately they seem to have become as greedy as Apple. JerryRig also pointed that out when he saw that only US Samsung phones have copper cooling system installed and they also ship with the better SoC 🤦🏻‍♂️

                                    the fact that they just followed apple just makes it 100x worse. worst idea to ever exist. "saving the environment" - apple

                                      Rokka, 08 Dec 2020Samsung is the Apple of AndroidThey just saw the opportunity in making more money. Xiaomi, Realme, Sony, etc. will follow shortly.
                                      I am expecting an increase in charger prices in the near future.
                                      Not to mention, companies will make particular chargers for each model. You have a cheaper Samsung X, you need Samsung charger X, you have expensive Samsung Z, you can't use cheaper Samsung charger X, you need the more expensive Samsung charger Z. Something like that.

                                        This will end maybe not today but for sure these kind of companies will see the end of the road.
